Wilbur nodded, his posture firm, hands balled into fits in his pockets.

"So, you want a coalition from Swag2020?" Quackity had his full attention to the anxious pair before him, he almost cracked a smile.

"Sort of. It's not a full coalition. If you lose the election, then your votes go to us and we co-lead. Me as President, you, George and Tommy as Vice Presidents or Cabinet members. If we lose, we do the same for you except you're President, of course." Wilbur paused. "An eye for an eye, if you will."

Quackity was clearly thinking hard about the offer. His stance changed to less of a laid back onto a serious one, a pondering look on his face. "Hm."

Wilbur stood, not breaking his posture, Tommy not so much.

"Well, Wilbur, you're a great President, but Schlatt's right. It's time for a change and if I can't bring it myself than I think Schlatt will."

Wilbur seemed unphased, but Tommy could tell that hurt him.

Wilbur cleared his throat. "Well, I assure you Big Q, I plan on making changes. I plan on taking sugges-"

"Wilbur. You have all these plans . . ."

Quackity began, but Wilbur had heard this before. Wilbur's mind went back to Schlatt's argument that had happened a while ago at this point.

Wilbur could feel the panic attack coming and tried to swallow it down. He felt Tommy step closer in a protective brotherly way.

"Big Q, could Wil and I have a second?"

"Sure, I'll be in the hall."

Quackity stepped out and Wilbur let out a breath he was holding.

"Wil focus on me."

Tommy stepped in front of him. "Look at me."

Wilbur looked up to meet Tommy's eyes.

"Count to 10."

Wilbur swallowed hard and began.
