rylin set his phone down on his black wooden desk, hovering his cursor over the server invite link. he nervously clicked "join," and this brought him to #general.

technoblade
vc 2

"hello," the older of the two say, in his signature monotone voice. "well well well, aren't you a charming man?" the younger replies in a mocking tone, desperate to start some drama wherever he landed, and today his victim was none other than technoblade. he soon found this choice to be a mistake.

the two men bicker back and forth, spitting insults and nonchalant bullying until eret joins the couple, forcing techno to back off of the younger. the older was only older by a year, but that did not seem to phase the brother, only seeing the younger needing to be protected. however the younger denied this request and asked, nearly pleaded for the other to continue.
and so that's what the pair did, only after the protective brother left however.

"you seem like the type of person who cannot swim," techno comments, stifling a laugh at his shitty attack. "i live in cali, of course i can swim." the younger states, thinking he's fooled the pig whose anger seems to be building up as the seconds count.

"i bet you look like a moulded, old potato," rylin says after a while of running around on the smp, earning a dryly forced laugh from the man he aimed it towards. however their bickering was once again interrupted by a strong accented man, whom rylin would come to know as george, or georgenotfound as his user states.

rylin decides to remain quiet, waiting to see what would come of the three in the call. after an uncomfortable silence, this so called george left, leaving the two americans alone, in their thoughts. "so what do you even look like, miss piggy?" rylin asks the man, nearly crossing the line. when he's met with silence he pushes the subject a little further. safe to say that wasn't a good idea because not even two minutes later, rylin's screen displayed a red tinted screen.

You Died!
Score: 258

the younger was confused as to who and how someone killed him. he scrolled up in chat only to see a message he was certainly surprised by.

the_rylin was slain by technoblade using [The Blade]

"did i do something wrong?" the outgoing one asked, confused as to why he was just slain by a pig with a sword after asking such a simple question. at least, he thought it was simple, he'd come to find out why that reaction was had in the very near future.

technoblade then signed off, still having not spoken a word to the other since the seemingly forbidden question was asked. rylin took this chance to message his sibling, asking her to join him in the vc, to try and figure out more about this 'technoblade' guy. once his sibling, (or sisling as he liked to call her) joined, he unloaded the bullets of questions that he had about the monotoned man.

"what's his name?" "why is he so quiet?" "is he single?"

"wait wait wait, you asked if he's SINGLE?" eret only caught onto that question and ran like a chicken with its head cut off. "no no no not like that, i just want to get to know him, he seems cool." rylin tried to change his attitude and act like he wasn't somewhat captivated by the way this man acted.

"are you gay?" she asks whilst rylin was stuttering and stammering over his words, trying to find an excuse or anything to defuse the already embarrassing situation, only making it worse for himself. now, eret was extremely suspicious of her younger brother, obviously already knowing the answer, or so she thought.

"well, i mean, i guess, i don't know? i haven't experimented with it but it seems interesting." rylin admits defeat, explaining himself the best that he could to his sisling, hoping she understood.

"you're talking to an openly bisexual person who uses all pronouns, i accept you. not to mention, you're my brother," she reassures, causing the boy to release a deep breath he wasn't aware that he was holding.

"okay." he responds, deciding to log off for the day. it was already four pm, and he decided to go out on his skateboard, making sure to let his roommate who doubled as his sisling know where he was going in case she needed him.

as he was skating into and around town, he noticed a rather pretty guy sitting on a hammock in the california sun. it shocked him to see someone as attractive as the stranger out on a day like this. he almost went up to the man before seeing him get up and stretch, unluckily facing towards the boy skating. rylin became red and decided to call eret as he skated away.

"hot guy please help me i skated away but i'm coming home," rylin essentially screamed into the phone making the person on the line wince in sudden fear. "okay chill, what did he look like and what was he wearing?" she asks calmly, right as the boy gets to a bench to take a short break.

"he has short brown-ish hair, i saw him at the hammocks today. he- he was wearing uh- skinny jeans and uh a green hoodie with a wide smile on the front of it. the smile looked familiar but i didn't stick around to find out." rylin managed to get out, still out of breath from running to get a head start and then kicking off.

"was there anything else you noticed about him?" she asked, now curious about this mystery man. rylin had gotten up by now, walking his way up the somewhat of a hill back to their house that they shared. "i mean...he was hot? i don't know eret he was just really pretty and i don't know what this feeling is. i've felt it with women before but never a man." rylin explained as he grew closer and closer to the place he called his house.

"that's okay. did he see you?" she asks in a calmer voice, trying to get this kid to chill the fuck out. of course, to no avail, and the question she just asked didn't help much either. "yes he did and that's what i'm freaking out about, when we get home can we play minecraft this is too stressful." the confused man asked, a sudden wave of anxiety washing over him.

"yeah of course, private or on the smp?" she says in a slightly softer tone than before, seemingly sensing the anxiety laced in the words he spoke. "the smp," was muttered in reply. she knew how bad he got when he saw a pretty girl, let alone this feeling he's never felt before with a guy. she continued to reassure her brother, repeating the phrases "you're fine," "you're okay," over and over until rylin had made it back to their shared house.

he walks in and immediately bee lines for his room, loading up the smp and hopping in vc 3, waiting for his sibling to join him in call, despite her already being in game. "hey ry," eret began cautiously, making a mental note to be careful with her word choice. "hey, this is all so confusing," rylin responds, taking in a deep breath.

"start from the beginning again. what happened." eret asked once she knew he was calmer. "okay so i was skating down the street, you remember the hammocks we used to go to when we were younger? on the outskirts of LA?" rylin asks, just to make sure eret is listening, and of course, she is. "the blue hammocks by the beach?" she asked, just to make sure they were thinking of the right place. he confirms this with a shaky hum.

rylin hadn't noticed but someone else had joined the call, and was trying to listen before eret spoke up. "techno? you okay?" she asked sincerely, as he was silent the whole time. before rylin could speak, technblade was gone. the boy wondered why he had left, maybe he felt bad for invading their privacy? the boy's mind was trying to find one thing to ground his thoughts with before eret spoke up once again.

"let's just play," rylin tried to suggest, but his suggestion came out as a plea, to which eret took note of and decided to drop the subject until rylin wanted to talk about it again.

so that's what they did.
