Summary
Apollo opened the door, unmasked, looking incredibly irritated.
"Uh, hi Tommy." The blonde's irritation immediately faded when he saw the injuries of the hero in front of him. He ushered him inside, sitting him down on the couch.
“Jesus christ, Wilbur, how the fuck does this even happen? ” He asked, holding up Wilbur’s dislocated arm, making him wince.
"Quackity did it." He mumbled, and Tommy raised an eyebrow.
"Quackity? You can beat Quackity's ass with your eyes closed, Wilbur." Wilbur wasn't sure if he was meant to take that as a compliment or not. "You're just not focusing enough." Tommy scolded, holding up Wilbur’s other arm to heal the wounds from Quackity’s claws.
“I got a few decent blows on him.” Wilbur replied, trying to defend himself. But he knew Tommy was right. His mind had been drifting elsewhere for most of that fight. But he was too prideful to admit that. “I didn’t completely lose.”
"I don’t care who won, Wilbur. You've been coming to me with more and more injuries lately. You need to be careful, man. The guild needs you."
OR:
Wilbur is a hero barely being paid enough to make a living for himself and his daughter, Tallulah. Something needs to change.

Summary
Wilbur took a deep breath, like he was trying to hold himself together.
“Well, Lulah. What do you think?” He asked, trying and failing to force some joy into his voice.
“It’s nice.” She replied quietly. It felt like they were both acting, pretending they were okay when neither of them were. They’d been through the same thing, why couldn’t they just be themselves?
Her papa was trying to hold himself together for her, he wanted to be the father she deserved.
Tallulah just wanted to be his sunshine. She couldn’t allow herself to wallow. Her papa already had a long list of problems, and Tallulah didn’t want to be one of them.
“I’m glad you like it, honey. We'll be able to make it nicer soon." Tallulah knew he had other things on his plate. The last thing on his mind was apartment redesign. But she smiled and nodded anyway. It was easier to keep up the façade.or:
Tallulah is struggling to recover from what happened, and Wilbur seems to be going through the exact same thing.

Summary
Quackity had always wanted to be a hero when he was a kid, but now he wasn't so sure. They didn't seem to do much, not for Westside, at least. The guild only seemed to care about Westside when Deimos was around.
Quackity shoved the posters into the wardrobe, not bothering to hang them up. He had outgrown heroes. He knew better.
OR:
Quackity resorts to villainy to pay the bills, and meets a hero he gets a little too attached to.

Summary
It was widely known around SMP that Siren's absence was because of Deimos. No one really knew the details, because that would involve the public finding out Wilbur’s real name and about Tallulah. It was too much of a risk, so it was easy for speculation to spread. And it clearly had, because Siren wasn’t getting the welcome he deserved, and Quackity had been tormented by civilians for months. He wasn't expecting to be welcomed; he was an ex-villain , but people were much nastier than he expected. He would just have to get used to it. This was the life he chose.
“Hey.” Wilbur sat down beside him, pulling his knees up to his chest. He was avoiding eye contact, staring forward at the skyline. “It's freezing.” He hugged his arms, his breaths misting in the cold air. Quackity pulled off his jacket, throwing it over Wilbur’s shoulders.
“Yeah. Are you doing okay?” There was a beat of silence.
“I don't know.” Wilbur replied slowly. “I was so confident this morning and now I'm just-” He let himself trail off, and silence settled between them again. Wilbur tilted his head to rest it on Quackity’s shoulder, and neither of them commented on it. “Lost. I'm lost again."
or:
Siren finally goes back to work.
