Summary
“Hey, Will,” she says, and hears the silence leer back.
It is pointless, she knows. Visiting here. There is no body under the neatly-tended daises in this pretty little clearing (not cornflowers, never blue), and Niki has been disillusioned as to the truth of ghosts. But she is always kind, has built herself around it. She owes nothing to Wilbur’s ghost - walking or not - but she owes this visit to herself.Or: Niki visits Wilbur, just after Tommy has gotten his discs back, and receives a visit in return.

Summary
Niki stands, torn between the fear freezing her in place and the urge to dart forwards and be kind and loving and help, as her best friend paces in front of a button in a cave littered with words carved in Wilbur’s own hand. He’s muttering to himself.
She says, gently horrified, “Will.”Or: November 16th, and the button room. But instead of Phil, it's Niki. This changes some things, but not others.

Summary
When the door to Wilbur’s flat hisses open, releasing more smoke and grit than usual, he’s got great big circles under his eyes. Tommy blinks at him once, twice. “You look like shit,” he says, and ducks his way inside.
“Gee, thanks,” Wilbur says, no heat to his voice. He lingers a moment at the door, head turning this way and that, before letting it shutter closed. “Bad week for the ol’ asthma. You been good?”
“Coping,” Tommy sighs. “I’m still alive, Wil - y’know how it is.”
“A hard knock life, up in those towers,” Wilbur agrees. He’s smiling. “Want anything to eat?”Or: Tommy's a pure-blooded, unmodified human from up in the skyscrapers. Wilbur insists he's unmodified, but has been acting cagey lately. Phil's got great big metal wings, Tubbo runs a pub for the modified and Ranboo's part of the hidden network to get them to safety, Techno doesn't bother hiding his cybernetic eyes or prosthetic leg, Tommy's got some bias to work through - and amongst all of this, Wilbur has vanished, and Tommy's willing to do anything to see him again.

Summary
“Where’s your suit,” Tommy demands.
“Deal with it yourself,” Wilbur grumbles. “Fetch your - your Young Avengers if you really need the help, I’m not going out today.”
“I brought you coffee,” Tommy says. “Quintuple shot espresso. The guy at the counter must’ve thought I was nutty.”
Wilbur looks up. “Are you bribing me?”
“Yes. Absolutely. Get your bow.”Or: Hawkeye & Hawkeye AU.

Summary
"So why’re you here?" Tommy says, studiously not looking at Wilbur. "You too maimed to go do big man shit?"
Wilbur, sprawled against one of Tommy's chests - it's fine, he's not got much important in there anyway - with a roll of fresh bandages in hand like he was planning on doing something with them, gives a laugh that's half a wheeze, like he's too tired to muster up much else. "That's not," he says, "what maiming is, y'know. I'll be fine." Tommy can hear him shifting his weight, the rustling of fabric on fabric, the faint hiss he sucks in through his teeth when he's in more pain than he wants to make a mockery of. Tommy doesn't want to look, he said he wasn't going to look, he doesn't care - and yet he finds himself glancing over his shoulder.Wilbur needs somewhere safe to change the bandages on his arm. For some reason, he comes to Tommy's house.
