Tommy smirked to himself as he held a flower in his hand, a small tilt of his head as he waited for his friend. The Immortal Deity of Spring was ecstatic to finally be able to hang out with the Immortal Deity of Winter, Purpled as he was called by everyone. Tommy had missed his friend and it had shown in how Summer was just a bit cold this year.
Ranboo has ignored it as it made his job easier to transfer Summer into Autumn, though he did leave a questioning gaze towards the other. Tommy only smiled and waved him off as he turned towards his own.
He’d only stopped because a snowy owl wasn’t a common occurrence at home, and the letter attached to its leg only made him smirk in amusement. Purpled found the smallest things amusing if it annoyed other people, who weren’t Tommy that is.
“Hey there Sunflower.” Tommy snorted as he turned to find Purpled looking exhausted. He understood, having begun to feel the effects of his season no longer being in its cycle left him tired, though not as tired as Purpled who had insomnia.
“Hey there Snowflake.” Tommy joked, a tilt of his head as the two friends, brothers in all by ichor, walked side by side. Whereas Tommy always ran hot, Purpled always ran cold, and they balanced each other out almost perfectly. Like Tubbo and Ranboo, Tommy snorted in amusement as he realized that the opposite seasons were the closest of friends.
He said as much when Purpled asked him what was so funny.
“You are ridiculous.” Purpled rolled his eyes, though a tiny fond smile did creep up his face as Tommy poked and prodded at him.
“Come on, let's stop and get hot chocolate!” Tommy announced, stopping almost suddenly.
“Tommy, it's still hot out.” Purpled pointed out, and Tommy stuck his tongue out at him.
“Don’t you always run cold?” Tommy asked, and Purpled’s silence was a give away to how the other was feeling. He, for some reason, always ran colder in the springs and summers, though he was at his coldest in the summer. His temperature going back to ‘normal’ the closer to winter it was.
“And?” Purpled finally muttered, and Tommy directed them into the coffee shop, a smile on his face.
They had gotten two Hot chocolates to go, along with a pastry each, before they continued on their walk where Tommy rambled about this and that and everything in between. He even went on to tell Purpled stories about what Wilbur did throughout the summer. Always with a touch of fond annoyance since they hardly ever hung out anymore.
Summer and Summer always fought, so Tommy stayed away.
In return Purpled talked quietly about some of the things that he did during the last winter, and a bit of what he’d done to Tubbo throughout the spring. Tommy snickered uncontrollably at the thought of middle of spring waking up to finding frost or light snow on the ground.
Though he did understand that it was a hassle to clean up, and that Purpled never did it often enough to ruin anything or get Tubbo actually mad at him.
They ended the day star gazing, Ranboo and Tubbo joining them with smiles on their faces, stories being swapped, jokes being told and a warm fuzzy feeling filling everyone’s chest.
