' ' how do you do? ' '

Another person peered around the corner and a dark brown haired boy stepped out from the front of the house.  His hair was quite wavy and covered one of his brown eyes, and he smiled at them.  "What are you two idiots doing?" he questioned them with a smile faintly playing at his lips.

Tommy huffed.  "He's the stupid idiot, Wilbur," the blond boy said, pointing at Tubbo who continued to die of laughter on the ground.  Wilbur laughed, grinning at Tommy and crouching down slightly to pat his hair.  Tommy looked up at Wilbur in horror and stared at him.

"What the fuck," he said, standing up and shoving Wilbur away from him.  The wavy brown haired boy let out another laugh, and Tubbo sat up wiping his eyes and still quietly laughing to himself and grinning.  "Oh my god you two are being so weird," Tommy muttered as he walked away towards the front of the house.

Tubbo quickly bounced to his feet and chased Tommy, leaving Wilbur alone.  The oldest boy let out a sigh and turned to follow them both, arms crossed but still smiling.

Tommy brushed the dirt off his signature red and white shirt and Tubbo stood beside him, looking up at the blonde boy with a faint admiration although he had just spent the last thirty seconds laughing at him.  Tommy looked down at Tubbo and pushed the boy away slightly, although they both knew it wasn't in a rude way.

Tubbo gently fidgeted with the straps on his light blue overalls as Wilbur walked over.  His undershirt had a little bee printed at the top of them which he was always happy about, and with that he had yellow and black striped long, puffy-sleeves that matched the bees that would sometimes buzz around the cabin and flowers lining the windows.  Tubbo had the most flowers outside his windows, simply for the purpose of attracting as many bees and bugs as he could.  He had always found them fascinating.

Tommy on the other hand, didn't seem to have any obsessions like Tubbo did.  He almost always wore a similar short sleeved shirt with brown trousers.  His face was covered with little scratches and patches that covered various injuries were scattered about his body, primarily his arms and face.  While Tubbo had burn marks along his face, neck, arms, and even his legs due to an incident with a fire while he was home alone, Tommy's injuries were mostly scrapes from climbing trees and running around the woods with Wilbur in tow.

Wilbur was wearing his simple outfit of a yellow sweater, black trousers, and gray shoes.  He had a patch on his cheek that he kept there often due to constantly getting punched in the face by Tommy in that exact spot for some reason.  He suspected it was because Tommy just extremely hated him, which he wasn't entirely wrong about.  Wilbur glanced at Tommy and Tubbo just standing there and adjusted his beanie, a bit confused as to why they were literally just standing there doing nothing.

Instead of waiting with them, he stalked past the two younger boys and walked up the steps along the side of the house to the front door, which he opened and closed behind him as he disappeared inside the building.

Tubbo glanced up at Tommy before hopping forwards on one foot and then following Wilbur into the house.  He ran his hand along the wooden rail along the stairs as he walked up and nudged the door open as he slipped into the house as well.  Tommy sighed and followed them silently, arms crossed.

"Phillllll," Tommy called as he entered the house, taking off his shoes and shoving them awkwardly into a cubby on the wall.  There was a pause, and then no response.

"PHILLLLL!" The blond haired boy yelled even louder, and Tubbo peeked his head around the corner of a wall.  Tommy followed him and the two of them spotted Phil cooking in the kitchen.  The dirty blond haired man turned, his blue eyes flashing as soon as he saw Tubbo standing there.

"Tubbo!  Stay the fuck out of the kitchen!" he exclaimed with a slightly nervous laugh before turning back to the oven and fiddling with the knobs awkwardly.  Normally he wouldn't try to cook things but it seemed tonight was special.  Over his usual green jinbei and black haori he donned a bright green apron a similar color to his clothes.  His black wings were tucked tightly behind him, although occasionally they fluttered which the boys recognized to be a sign of their father's nervousness. 

"Ok, fine!" Tubbo exclaimed and stepped back, holding his hands up.  "Just because I burned down our last house doesn't mean that the food didn't taste good though," he added, glancing up to the side and averting his gaze from Philza.

Tommy grinned and Phil huffed, shooting a glance over his shoulder at the two boys.  "Yeah, well we didn't even get to eat the food because it all burned along with the house.  Now if it's alright with you I'd like to cook this meal without setting this house ablaze so if you and Tommy could set the table and get everyone ready for dinner that would be perfect."

"Alrig-" Tubbo began to speak but was practically shoved aside both verbally and physically by Tommy, when the blond boy stepped forwards.

"Is something special happening?  You don't cook like this often," Tommy questioned, his voice not seeming very curious and more emotionless than usual.  If anything, Tubbo may have guessed that the taller boy was angry.  A nice smell wafted through the air, clearly coming from whatever food their father was cooking.

Phil didn't reply for a moment as the stove clicked and a fire lit by accident, which Phil promptly turned off and then paused.  "Yeah, you could call it something special I guess.  I can't believe you don't remember- I don't think it's been that long since I told you."

Tommy tapped his foot impatiently, glaring at Philza who seemed almost to be avoiding the question, but then the blond man turned around and smiled at them.

"Today is Tommy and Wilbur's last dinner with us."

Holy heck ok, so this was so fun to write? 

I'm very bad at ending chapters/stories so this may seem a bit rushed by the end but I hope anyone reading still enjoys!  Can't wait to introduce more characters and expand a bit more on the plot.

Also enjoy the knowledge that Tubbo burned down the family's previous house due to a cooking mishap </3
