Chapter Text
Technoblade looks at the purple swirling magic that keeps a portal open to his homeland, carefully watching as little sparks of untamed magic fly out in short bursts of newfound energy. Not the best sign, but there could be worse. Depending on how this 'blood god' acted, they might already be ripping down half of the Nether in insanity.
He turns away from the portal's warmth and faces the Snowy Tundra, quickly tugging his cloak closer to him to keep himself warm. He wasn't exactly fond of hibernating when a new blood god was out on the loose. He scanned the snowy tundra for the two people he was looking for. Soon enough, he saw them leaving his cabin and shuffling towards the Nether Portal he was at.
Obviously, with Phil's wings, he could just glide over the snow, but Wilbur was dramatic and said, and I quote, "Flying is for pussies, who hate helping the family." Phil is definitely a family man, so he never glides with family (Himself and Wilbur) unless asked.
Of course, when Wilbur isn't around, Phil does glide since Techno isn't an emotional bag of surprises and can control his emotions. (Suppress them, but that's not important. They all have issues, okay? Like Phil's need to illegally adopt every poor child he sees. )
Wilbur slowly climbs the steps to the Nether Portal, which he is standing at the top of. "Technooooo...I'm so tired! Why did you decide to live in this snowy ass place!" Phil chuckled, and Techno sighed. "You always have like five layers of clothes on, Wilbur." Wilbur pouted and pushed past Techno, quickly jogging to the Nether Portal and sighing in relief as the portal's warmth embraced him.
"I have two layers on right now because we're going into the Nether, dumbass!" Techno sighed and walked to the Nether Portal, with his father following.
"Alright, are you both going to be okay going alone? I can-"
"Phil, calm down. Your wing's injured. We'll be fine.
"Yeah, Dadza! Techno can punch anything that comes near us!"
"Or Wilbur can just keep speaking and annoy them to death."
Phil chuckled, and before Wilbur could yell at Techno, Phil spoke up. "No more bickering. You need to find the new blood god and make sure they haven't started to tear down the Nether like the last one." Techno nodded in agreement.
"Alright! We can do this. We'll see you later, Dadza!" Phil smiled, and The twins turned to the Nether Portal and stepped in.
Wilbur stumbled out of the portal, with Techno following shortly after, grabbing his brother by the shoulders to keep him upright. "I'm never going to get used to that.." Wilbur smiled sheepishly, and Techno stared at him with an unimpressed look before focusing on what chat was saying.
LITTLE BABY MAN AWWW

*message was deleted by a moderator*
OH AWWWW
WE CAN PROTECT HIM
no, he's ugly
shut up. He's adorable
golddddd
why is he in the blue forest thing?
Why is he calm af?
"He's..in the blue forest.?" The brothers looked around, searching for the biome chat had mentioned. Techno walked away from the portal to see a bit further into the Nether. "Oh, Tech!" Techno turned to look at Wilbur and where he was pointing. "There! The blue Forest!" Next to the path that led to L'manburg was a blue forest...Chat, call it a Warped Forest.
Wilbur and Techno set off on the L'manburg path until they're close enough to the Warped Forest to bridge over, "I might visit Fundy after this.." Wilbur hummed to himself while Techno focused on building a temporary bridge over to the Warped- Blue Forest. Shut up, chat. They both stepped on the 'blue forests' grass and looked for the most deserted area. When a new blood god appeared, mobs usually steer away from them, making it easy to find them.
Soon enough, they found the spot every mob avoided (mainly endermen). There was a tree...nothing unusual. Techno groaned; either chat had lied to him, or this 'blood god' was intelligent. Wilbur squealed, making Techno look over confused, only to see Wilbur kneeling down at a...runt.?
"Oh, aren't you just the cutest little thing?" Techno slowly walked over and looked at the runt poking at Wilbur and making numerous random noises as most runts did. Gold, the runt had gold hair and...blue eyes? Almost as bright as the Overworld's skies, if it wasn't for the baby tusks, he could see how the runt's skin was a peach-like colour mixed with a slight pink. He would have assumed the runt was a baby avian. Phil mentioned that baby avians had the brightest blue eyes before fading into a different colour or a darker blue.
Techno ignored the runt's gold hair. If he wanted to find the blood god, he couldn't get lost in his instincts...Wilbur's eyes looked entirely black, and he was constantly staring at the runt's golden hair. Techno sighed and looked around until Wilbur escaped the fog of his instincts and spoke up.
"Tech...we can't leave a baby runt out here! Especially with the blood god on the run!" Techno's eye twitched, sure...the runt had gold hair that no doubt would shine after a bath and the brightest blue eyes that would make Phil immediately fall into his instincts. But they couldn't just take a runt from their sounder.
"Wilbur...they probably have a sounder close by." Wilbur pouted and chuffed at the runt, tilting his head in a bird manner (He got it from Phil, obviously), asking the runt if he was lost and where his sounder was.
sounder?-lost?-hurt?
The runt chuffed back while Techno leaned onto the tree, totally not avoiding the runts..gold hair.
no sounder-safe
Techno's head turned so quickly to the runt he was almost surprised his neck didn't snap. Wilbur's eyes are wide, his pupils becoming even larger before he blinks and looks at Techno. "Techno- he has no sounder! We can't just leave a poor runt out here!"
Techno stuttered over his words, his instincts AND CHAT. Now wanting to take the poor runt home and into his hoard to protect him forever.
NO POOR LITTLE BABY
TECHNO HES GOLD HES GOLD
GOLD.
PHIL WILL LOVE HIM PLS
AWWW SMALL LITTLE BABY
He's adorable
GOLD AHHHH
PLSS TECHNO, WE NEED TO SEE HIS HAIR WHEN ITS CLEANED
OMG, HE'S GONNA BE SO SHINY
Isnt he- y'know
HE'S JUST A LITTLE BABY
@########## SHHHHH HES SO CUTE
He is pretty cute
Techno groaned and dragged his hand over his face to snap himself out of his instincts, "Well- I don't know, ask him? We can't kidnap a kid!" Wilbur looked confused. "Oh- yeah, I knew that, uh...Runt, sunshine!" Of course, he's already nicknamed the runt...Theseus would be better a proper piglin name.
The runt looked at Wilbur and away from Techno (When did he look at Techno?), let out a confused noise and some broken piglin saying 'what?' Wilbur squealed again "aww...he already knows some piglin Tech-" Wilbur stared and at Techno's annoyed expression, The Nether wasn't safe for runt's especially out in the open!
Wilbur cleared his throat and nodded at Techno. "Right, Sunshine, do you wanna come back with us?" Wilbur spoke in piglin this time, his smile reaching his eyes.
The runt chuffed sounder?-safe? If Wilbur's smile could get any bigger, it would be. He immediately nodded and picked up the runt hugging him tightly. "Okay! Techno, come on, let's go!" Techno looked at the runt who was leaning against Wilbur contently.
"Fine..but let me hold him." Wilbur paused but smiled and let Techno pick up the runt like a feather. The runt chuffed happily protector, and Techno couldn't help but chuff back protector. The runt squealed happily and hugged Techno. He ignored how Wilbur giggled and how he chuffed at the runt, who was slowly falling asleep.
They quickly arrived at the Nether Portal, but Techno took off his cape and covered the sleeping runt in it before entering. Wilbur smiled fondly, Techno ignored him out of embarrassment (No chat, he wasn't going soft.), and they both left the Nether with an extra family member. They didn't remember their original mission.
