Techno POV

I lead Y/N down the hall and into the dining room. After informing the piglins in the kitchen that Y/N is my sister and will be staying for a bit, they begin to prepare dinner.

"So N/N," (Nickname). I say. "What happened after you left?"

"How do you know I left?"

"I saw the look on your face when I left, you were going to leave too. When did you leave and why?"

"I left a few months after you because I wanted the same thing as you, get away from Tommy and start my own life"

"One, that's a classic answer, and two, Tommy was not the reason I left," I chuckle.

"How is that a classic answer? And Tommy was always annoying you"

"Leaving home to "start your own life" is so classic, there has to be another reason"

"There isn't"

"Liar" I smile and get an idea.

"I'm not lying" she says.

Instead of answering, I pick her up and toss her over my shoulder like I used to do growing up.

"Put me down!" She screams at me but I smile.

"No"
I kick open my bedroom door and slam it shut. I fling Y/N down onto my bed and lie on top of her.

"Get off!" She shoves inefficiently at me. "You're so heavy!" She complains.

"Shaming my weight? Tsk, tsk" I mutter.

My eyes fall to her skin tight, leather top covering her stomach. A slow smile spreads across my face.

I tickle her roughly with both hands through her top, her most ticklish spot which I learned when we were young. She laughs hysterically.

"T—tec—hno! S—tt—o—pp!" She says between laughs.

I just cackle and continue to tickle her harder.
With her free hand, she reaches behind my head and tickles right behind my piglin ears.

I start laughing uncontrollably until we both lie on our backs gasping for breath.

"I love how when we were young, we would have tickle fights and when we got older, we had tackle fights" she giggles.

"Yeah," I flash back to my childhood memories with Y/N, Wilbur, and Tommy.

"So why were you looking for me in the first place?" I ask sitting up to look at her.

"Well, after I left home, I spent time gathering resources, materials, and wealth. I trained with Punz but I didn't really talk to anyone else. During all the wars and conflict, I was always just watching. I remember you being in the Pogtopia vs Marburg War and spawning withers and I watched you during Doomsday spawning so many withers."

I look down.
"I'm sorry"

"Don't be, I couldn't care less about any of the land or countries"

"Anyways, I heard about Dream getting imprisoned and I went to become a guard at Pandora's Vault, the prison he was being kept in. I brought him food and tried to make his life in prison better"

"Why?" I ask. "Wasn't he a prisoner?"

"He was treated horribly by the guards and Quackity would come to torture him for the revival book. I became his friend in prison. I eventually took a break and came across this," she taps the black mask.

"It's called the Mask of Nightmare which hides my face and changes my voice. I became Nightmare, with my throwing discs and agility that I have barely used in combat before"

"How'd that go?" I ask.
Phil found her in a village fire with a black pouch of silver throwing discs. She always practiced with them but never said where she got them. Her aim was always very accurate and her agility could match physical strength in PvP. When she lived with us, she trained with a sword and other more powerful weapons including armor.

"Pretty good, I took out a few people"

"Like what?" I was interested, she rarely killed anyone or anything.

"I broke into the prison as Nightmare and broke Dream out. Smp guards were waiting for us and I fought them off until I could get Dream to safety"

"Wait, wait, wait. Dream's out?"

"Yeah, I have been helping him get allies and working with him"

"Y/N, he's dangerous" I say.

"He's not. In prison, he was so fearful and terrified of everyone. The prison broke him but the old Dream is slowly coming back. I like him, the true him. Not the manipulative, evil, controlling Dream"

"I'm just saying Y/N, he's capable of anything"

"Yeah I know"

"So about me? You've been ducking the question"

"I wanted to find you but after reading your letter to Phil, I came here to ask you, why did you become king when you were an anarchist, opposed to any form of authority?"

I freeze and think for a minute,

Why did I become a king? I'm helping the piglins and without me, they're in complete chaos. Do they really need me though? I do often kill them on a daily basis. They fear me, am I becoming a dictator, a tyrant?

"Techno?" Y/N says. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, sorry I just spaced out for a bit"

"So why did you become king?"

"The piglins were in chaos without me and I brought them order. They accepted me as king but I'm not sure if they actually need me. I mean, I kill them on a daily basis by accident. Does this make a dictator? A tyrant? I don't know!" I bury my face in my lap and feel her hand on my shoulder, rubbing it soothingly.

Out of all of us, I was always closer to Y/N. We both liked fighting and combat and we always understood each other.

"How about you just figure this out later?" She suggests.

"Sure" I smile and look at her. "You're staying right?"

"Not for more than three days but yes"

"Yay! Now I can push you around again because I'm king"

I adjust the crown on my head and grin proudly.

"You're only 3 years older than me Tech" she scoffs.

"Makes me wiser" I smirk dashing down the hallway with her right on my heels.

After a quiet dinner with the still fearful piglins. I drag Y/N to my room and throw her onto the bed.

"I don't want to sleep with you!" She complains. "You'll just roll over and squash me!"

"Excuses, excuses" I clap my hands together. "I'm the king and you're my guest. You should be honored to be sleeping with me."

"Well I'm not" she huffs and places the mask on the nightstand table.

I go to change and come back to find Y/N running her fingers across the discs.

She never said where they came from, only that they were a reminder of her past.

I climb into bed and she shifts as far as she can away from me, facing the opposite direction.

"Goodnight Y/N" I mutter.

"Goodnight Techno" she whispers and I close my eyes letting sleep overtake me.
