I can’t offer you a fight but if you want to see one @save-the-villainous-cat and @epiclamer are at it again

OH DEAR GOD WHAT IS HAPPENING OVER THERE

THESE TWO????

You know what I think I see it

Sorry not sorry to the both of you please don’t kill me

I would they would prefer you using hands? Maybe give you a little peck to help you get angry and help you fight better?

Alright then. But I must warn you them, I have been told I have a strong right hook.

Oh, and none of that ‘give you a little peck’ stuff. That is an attack in itself. Plus, when someone fights angry, it almost always ensures their defeat. And that is not happening.

Inspired by @autocrats-in-love’s prompt here!

“Can you stop- stop hanging on me!” The hero stood frozen, trying— and failing— to not panic. They didn’t dare move a muscle as the villain’s embrace became tighter around their ramrod-straight posture.

“Let me go,” their voice came out small, panic and fear muddled together.

“Look, I know you’re… wary, of affection. And touch in general… but its not all bad. I haven’t hurt you yet, have I?”

Yes. Well, no. Not yet.

But it was a dangerous game, that thing called touch. It brought hurt and pain, and if that touch was nice it meant someone wanted something and they wouldn’t hesitate to hurt them if they didn’t get it and-

Their panic screeched to a halt when a hand found the base of their head and began to play with their hair. They hated how the touch made them both flinch and shiver. Hero couldn’t think straight, their mind seemed split in two. Villain’s touch felt so nice. But in an instant it could be so dangerous.

So Hero waited for the questions. For the hands to stop being kind and pull their head back to expose their throat. They waited for Villain’s demands. Because touch was a trick. This thing, this comfort… it was only to lower their guard. Villain still wanted something from them. Information? Locations? What could they possibly want?

“Hey.” Hero flinched yet again as a hand slid back and forth over their back. They didn’t even notice how their breath quickened, or how their jaw began to tremble. No, Hero only noticed the hand.

“Please,” they begged. Their wide, panicked eyes met Villain’s cool, slightly concerned gaze. “I- I’ll tell you anything, anything you want just… just let go of me. Please.” So the criminal did. And without a second’s hesitation, Hero jumped out of Villain’s grasp.

One thing was for sure, Hero wouldn’t like their question. But it was the only thing Villain was thinking about at this moment. Who hurt their hero, so badly that they were afraid of a simple hug?

No, no problem here!

are you planning to make a masterlist

Hi anon! At this time, I have not thought seriously about making a masterlist. I would like to have one eventually, but it’s not high on my priority list at this moment. Though if you guys want a masterlist, I can make one.

Snippet #8

“What are you still doing up?” The person in question, Villain, blearily looked up at the hero standing by the bedroom door.

Villain turned back to the notes and documents littered across the floor around them. The case files and photos. The evidence. “I’m working on the case. But what are you doing up, its-“ And they cut themselves short when they looked at the clock. They blinked once. Twice. Three times. There’s no way it was nearly 5 o’clock in the morning.

Villain had been staying at Hero’s base for a good part of the past week. They considered it the safer option when there was a new Supervillain on the loose. And since Villain had received a personal threat from them, they decided to take precautionary measures. To make matters worse, there was little to no evidence against this super… which meant the threat— and the living arrangement— wasn’t stopping anytime soon.

“I… Supervillain is-”

“Most likely asleep right now.” Hero cut. “And if they are awake, they must be half delirious, much like you.”

The poor villain could only give Hero a guilty smile at their statement. Their eyelids drooped closed for a brief moment, before fluttering back open again. All right then, if they left them no choice-

Villain glanced over at the file again as their eyelids fell closed, before flying wide open as a pair of hands slid under their arms. “H-Hero? What are you doing? Let me go!” Their movements were slow and jerky, too weak for the fight they were trying to give.

“Nope. You need to get some sleep.” They laid the flailing villain on the bed and sat down beside them, acting as a barrier between Villain and their work.

“Just… just leave me alone. I was fine how I was.” It was meant to be a growl, but it came out as a half-hearted mutter. A hand began to card through their hair and Villain found themselves melting. Why was it so hard to keep their eyes open all of a sudden?

“I’m not leaving until you get some rest.” The hand continued to play with their hair, even scratching their scalp lightly in places.

“But I’m- *yawn* -I’m not even tired.” The villain whined. Hero almost mentioned how they sounded like a child, but they didn’t want to dissuade Villain from actually trying to sleep. Besides, the criminal was so stinking adorable when they were tired!

Villain looked up at the fond smile of the hero. Their eyes fluttered closed, and when they opened again, hero was lying beside them with villain’s arms wrapped around them.

Villain tried to get their arm out from under them… until the hero shifted and murmured some variation of ‘I don’t think so’ and pulled Villain a little closer. They listened to the silence— only interrupted by the sound of Hero’s breathing— and succumbed to the darkness once again.

Hero smiled again, watching how the other snuggled closer in their sleep. To bother them now would almost be a sin. They took a deep breath and closed their eyes. This villain was too adorable.
