    Summary

    Everybody knew about the tiny apartment on the East End of L'manberg, hiding in a far corner of the lower districts.

    A place everyone was welcome, regardless of their given title.
    Where villains could come for medical treatment.
    Where mafia goons and bosses could rest without the need to look over their shoulders.
    Where vigilantes and heroes could have a nice chat over tea.
    Where treatment (and treats) were given out freely.

    Where societal tags (and their due expectations) were shot and murdered at the front door.
    And if you ignored this rule, you too were shot and murdered at the front door.
    By whom was a gamble.

    Everybody knew about the tiny apartment on the East End of L'manberg.

    Everybody also knew that if you touched any of the occupants, well...
    You'd have the entirety of super-powered society (underground and otherwise) gunning for your head.

    Tommy Innit, the owner of said apartment, lived quite the interesting life.
    Seriously, he just wanted to bake cookies, what just happened?

    OR
    5 times Tommy dropped everything to help everyone else, and 1 time they dropped everything to help him.

    Summary

    “W-What do you- I mean can I- are you here to rob us?” The person managed to stammer out.

    Siren snorted. “No. I’m just here to order some food.”

    “Wh-What about him?” The cashier asked, glancing at Tommy. “Did you- did you kidnap him?”

    “I mean… yeah, let’s go with that in case this ends up on the news,” Siren shrugged, looking back at Tommy. “I kidnapped you, right?”

    “Yeah, sure,” Tommy agreed, knowing that if they said he was kidnapped, it would keep people from getting suspicious of why he was seen in public with Siren. “Anyway, can I get the chicken nuggets happy meal, with a coke?”

    or, how Tommy—who is not a hero, or a villain, or even a vigilante—saves the life of one of L'Manberg's most feared supervillains, and accidentally ends up becoming the resident doctor for every supervillain in town (and maybe gets a family along the way too).

    Summary

    “Something has been stolen from us,” Thanatos said, his wings puffing up as he spoke. “Something that is very important to us. And we are fairly certain that the person who stole this thing of ours is in this very crowd.”

    Dream tensed beside Tommy as the crowd broke out into murmurs. Eyes were darting towards the different heroes in the crowd, the benefactors no doubt assuming that the culprit had to be a hero.

    “Like we said, we haven’t crashed your party to cause trouble. But we want this thing returned to us, and we won’t hesitate to take extreme measures to get what we want.”

    or, Tommy was a lot of things: a newly debuted hero sidekick, an amnesiac, and a former kidnapping victim of the Syndicate.

    Tommy didn't actually remember that last one though. That was just what Dream told him.

    Only weeks after his hero debut, the Syndicate announces they are searching for something, and Tommy knows it has to be him. The scariest part? If they find him, Tommy will have no clue what to expect, because the Syndicate might know him, but he has no memories of them.

    So he can't let them find him. No matter what.

    Of course they end up finding him anyway.
