Homelander can't help, mocking this display of faux power of her to be bold enough to stand in front of him, rolling his eyes "yeah, yeah.. good for us, yay" he raises a weak fist "my dear Victoria, no need to get your panties in a twist because I can assure you if you won't do as I say, your dear Zoe won't see the next day. is that enough threat or do you want me to sign up somewhere to publish it formally? hm?" he takes a step forward in her space, raising a hand "now shut up and listen, if I'm ought to go down, I'll take everyone I know down with me. I'm done playing nice to you or anybody else, you're only making a joke of yourself standing against me here- I don't even know why we're having this conversation! you're my puppet, Victoria and I move you how I want, how I wish to win this little game. all you have to do is sit back, looking pretty and obey, shouldn't be hard, no? seeing you're a woman, that's what you all are good at, no? sit back, following husband's order and spread your legs whenever the male wants. you belong between trashes and if it wasn't for me.. you wouldn't be here at all!" he's panting, foaming at the mouth when finishing his speech, eyes shining like crazy berserk and next second it's all gone and that polite picture is taking its place. he smiles softly, tone changed from maniacally up and down to calm and calculated. "spring wedding will be nice, Vought'll take care of the ceremony and I can and will wear whatever I want, dear future wife.." his smile sharp. "now, if you excuse me.. I shouldn't leave the press waiting for me.." he brushes past Victoria, his cape swishing at her and he's gone before giving her anything other than a "I'll drop by to see Zoe tonight.." and he's out of the room.
