Hii! Can you do hcs for little Kenshi from mk1 please?

Man I adore Kenshi!! He's super cool. :3

TW: Mentions of the Yakuza, references to hitting, and references about his eyes

<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Regressor Kenshi Takahashi HCs

❤️ Regressed to about 3-6

❤️ Very rarely, but sometimes he'll regress to almost babyspace

❤️ Found out about regression from Liu Kang

❤️ The God was worried because before age regression, Kenshi's coping mechanism was fighting/sparring or training until his feet gave out beneath him

❤️ Was a bit, lot, skeptical of it at first but ended up slipping very quickly with Liu Kang's help

❤️ His main CGs are probably Johnny and Liu Kang (Tomas too, avid Smokencage shipper over here)

❤️ Likes having Raiden, Kung Lao, and Syzoth baby sit him from time to time

❤️ Sento will also help too!! That's their grand baby after all!!

❤️ Sento’s actually a slightly difficult provlem because sometimes Kenshi wants to see when hes small but also has a habit of unsheathing the katana

❤️ ^ Luckily Sento's Guardians will scold him because he knows he's not suppose to play with the pretty sword

❤️ Which is so totally unfair btw, he might be small, but that doesn't mean he'll hurt himself!! >:/ (has accidently cut himself multiple times while small and came blubbering to you about it)

❤️ Well, he can't exactly cry because, uh, he has no . . . eyes

❤️ But his lip will start quivering and his face will get all red and he'll make the sounds of crying

❤️ It also kinda stings a bit, since his tear production will works, even if it's damaged, but doesn't have anywhere to go

❤️ Will sometimes freak out over his eyes and start gawing at them with his hands

❤️ You've gotta gently grab his hands and tell him that he's hurting himself and can't do that

❤️ In moments like these you just gotta hold him and rock him, letting him feel your heartbeat and hold onto something soft like his blankie

❤️ He's normally very good with the rules and doesn't like breaking them

❤️ Like, he knows if he draws on the floor or the walls, he's gonna have to clean it up and his pretty art won't stay, so why try it?

❤️ But if he does get in trouvle, he has a small habit of throwing hissy fits

❤️ Foot stomping, raised voice, throwing whatever he has in his hands at the ground (never you though, even in these moments he doesn't wanna hurt you)

❤️ These can usually be delt very quickly with an arms crossed and that look that just screams he's in trouble

❤️ I know he just yelled at you, but don't yell at him please

❤️ Stern voice is okay, but he will be fearful if you raise your voice and try to go hide away somewhere to feel safe again

❤️ Don't hit him either. There are times he might flinch when he knows your upset and then go completely silent on you

❤️ You've gotta just hold him and remind him that he isn't with the Yakuza anymore, they can't hurt him anymore

❤️ Best punishments for him are the naughty corner, but he has to be able to bring his blankie (more on that later)

❤️ He doesn't exactly baby regress but on days where all he can think about is his Yakkuza life, he feels very small and fuzzy and all he really wants is to be held, comforted, and loved

❤️ ^ These days he goes mostly nonverbal, and can get fussy if you don't immediately know what he wants

❤️ It's not your fault, nor his fault, he's just feeling a lot of negative emotions right now and doesn't know how to process them

❤️ When he does get that small, I can see him being a padded regressor out of comfort, but I dunno

❤️ Absolutely adores sippy cups (and cried one time because Johnny teased him for it, don't worry!! Johnny apologized for it and they made up)

❤️ Favorite regression item he owns is this smallish soft, fuzzy blankie he owns

❤️ He had to kinda hike his knees to his tummy if he wants to be wrapped in it, but it's still his favorite

❤️ This blankie is his best friend and he will drag it everywhere (never actually draws it though, kinda just holds it in his arms or on his lap)

❤️ His favorite part of the blanket is how soft and fuzzy it is because he can just shove his fave in it and appreciate the textures

❤️ Gets absolutely destroyed when you have to wash it

❤️ No amount of explaining will help your case, he'll either sit by the washer going ‘🥺’ until it's done, or will steal your blankie because it smells like you

❤️ Cuddles and physical affection is a must, especially is Sento isn't around

❤️ ^ Even if Sento is around, he still wants (silently demands) cuddles

❤️ Favorite little nicknames are Kenny, Honey, Little Guy, and Baby

❤️ Although if you called him any nickname, he'll be all giggly and hide in your shoulder

❤️ I can also see him as a kitty regressor

❤️ Will paw at your leg and snuggle on your lap, demanding head scratchies

<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

He's my baby, I love him. 🥺

Illicit Affairs

Pairing: Sejanus Plinth/Coriolanus Snow - Coriolanus Snow/Lucy Gray Baird (for plot purposes)

Snowjanus week prompt day 2: music

Note: I could have chosen so many songs, but Illicit Affairs hurts me so much it's unealthy. If you know what the song's about, sorry guys I can't write them happy it seems (tomorrow won't be happy either)

Make sure nobody sees you leave / Hood over your head, keep your eyes down

Coriolanus Snow thought he had it all together, before Sejanus came into his life. Sejanus Plinth, his beautiful, smart boy. All the things he was sure of, every plan he had in his life came tumbling down when Sejanus kissed him in his bedroom one evening while studying.

And Coriolanus, overwhelmed by the feeling of Sejanus’ lips against his, had kissed him back, with no hesitation. He didn’t even realize he felt something for him up that moment, but boy did he. They slept together, that night, whispers and words of love murmured between them behind closed doors, only for them to hear. Coriolanus had never felt more free as in that moment.

He expected the guilt to arrive the morning after, when he received a text from Lucy Gray - his pretty, loving girlfriend - that said good morning, with three pink hearts. But, to his surprise, he didn’t feel any regret about what he did.

Coriolanus thought lying would have been hard, having to pretend everything was fine while having lunch with her at school, but he found out it wasn’t that much after all. He spent all day thinking about the previous night over and over, and came to the realization that he loved having Sejanus all for himself, and couldn’t lose him. If that meant cheating on his girlfriend of a year, then so be it. Sejanus knew he was dating Lucy Gray and, if they slept together once and he had been fine with it, he would love to do it again, right?

Tell your friends you're out for a run / You'll be flushed when you return

And so it started. Sneaking away during class, quickies in the bathroom, making out sessions in the gym locker rooms. Coriolanus always made sure to make believable excuses for when his friends would ask him where he was going during lunch breaks, though most of the time he was careful enough to leave unseen.

They met at Sejanus’ place, always, his parents were barely there and it was easier for Coriolanus to go there since Sejanus didn’t live in the town center. He had learned all the local streets he could use so that no one would see him, even if he knew no one but Sejanus who lived in that neighborhood.

Only Tigris would get suspicious, from time to time, but he’d brush off her worries by saying, “I’m just going out for a run. I’ll be back before dinner, don’t worry.” And then leave before she had any time to respond. That was the most rational excuse he could think of, especially as he was always flushed when he’d return.

Take the road less traveled by / Tell yourself you can always stop

“Coriolanus? What are you doing here?”

He froze upon hearing Lucy Gray’s voice behind him. He slowly turned around and was met with his girlfriend’s doe eyes, looking at him with confusion on her face. “Uhm, I… What are you doing here?” He asked back, avoiding her question.

He was outside Sejanus’ apartment, and Lucy Gray had been here once for the boy’s birthday. She surely had already made the connection.

“Just walking Maude Ivory to the movie theater.” She explained, pointing to the building right in front of where Sejanus lived. Fucking great.

“Ah. Cool. I was just, uh, working with Sejanus on a school project?” He said, but it sounded more like a question than a statement. He hoped Lucy Gray wouldn’t think anything of it.

She seemed not to as she nodded, smiling. Fortunately he didn’t share American history with her like he did with Sejanus, he just had to tell Sej about his excuse and he would get away with it. “Okay well, I gotta go now. Call me up when you get home, will ‘ya? I’ve missed you lately.”

Coriolanus nodded and waved goodbye, observing as Lucy Gray walked away and disappeared behind a building.

What started in beautiful rooms / Ends with meetings in parking lots

“What? Why?”

“I told you, Lucy Gray saw me outside of your house.”

“You said you came up with an excuse-”

“I know! But if it happens again she’ll get suspicious. I can’t have that. You understand, right baby?” The nickname felt odd on Coriolanus’ tongue, but he had to use all the cards in his deck if he wanted to convince him.

It was silent on the other end of the call for a bit before Sejanus finally spoke up again. “Yeah. Of course. So the parking lot, tomorrow? Same time as usual?”

“Yes. I’ll see you there.”

“Okay. I love you.”

Coriolanus didn’t respond and simply ended the call, feeling uneasy. Why did Sejanus always have to ruin everything?

And that's the thing about illicit affairs / And clandestine meetings and longing stares / It's born from just one single glance / But it dies, and it dies, and it dies / A million little times

Sejanus grabbed his wrist and dragged him out of class as soon as it ended, but there was no harshness in his actions. He didn’t miss the longing stares he was giving Coriolanus while Mrs. Click was talking, he met his eyes more than once and tried to comfort him with no words.

Usually, when Sejanus looked at him like that, he always found himself down on his knees shortly after. That was how the whole thing started, after all. Sejanus kept staring at Coriolanus while studying and couldn’t help but act upon his instincts.

But this time it was different. He could tell.

“Are you okay?” He asked once they were in the broom closet.

Sejanus shook his head. “Yeah- listen, I’m sorry about yesterday. I shouldn’t have said that, it just slipped out.”

Coriolanus frowned before realizing Sejanus was talking about his love confession. He bit his lip, unsure on how to handle it. Sure, he had been taken back by his lover’s declaration, but now he was apologizing for it. So clearly there was nothing to worry about. But he couldn’t leave Sejanus to drown in his self commiseration and guilt, he knew him and knew how bad it could get.

He gave him a short kiss on the lips, and Sejanus visibly calmed down. “It’s fine.” He mumbled, taking Sejanus’ face in his hands and softly caressing his cheeks. “You did nothing wrong.” He lied.

“We’re still meeting this afternoon, yes?”

Sejanus looked up at him hopeful, and Coriolanus noticed he was crying. He nodded and kissed him again, this time slowly. Sejanus sighed and let himself melt in Coriolanus’ arms, giving him full control. They had time for a quick fuck before next period, right?

Leave the perfume on the shelf / That you picked out just for him

One date. Was that too much for Sejanus to ask? One date with Coriolanus, maybe going out to dinner, or at the movies. He just wanted one night out with Coryo- but how to ask him, if he wasn’t even sure he could call him his?

Either way, they were meeting up again tonight. Lucy Gray had almost caught him, but Coriolanus still wanted to see him. That must have meant something, or else he would have called him to leave him. But he didn’t. Coriolanus cared about him, just like Sejanus cared about Coriolanus.

So he got ready, wondering if he should put on the perfume he had worn once and that Coriolanus seemed to like so much. Loved to smell it when he kissed up his neck, he said. Sejanus observed the perfume on the shelf, and smiled a little. Coriolanus liked him either way, no need for the perfume. And who knew, maybe for once they would just spend time together instead of having sex in the back of his car. Not that he would mind either way, of course.

So you leave no trace behind / Like you don't even exist

As Sejanus walked to the parking lot, doubts started flooding his mind. Was Coryo going to be there? Maybe he had changed his mind, maybe he stood him up to spend time with Lucy Gray. What was he going to do if that was the case?

But all his doubts flew away when he saw Coriolanus standing there, leaning against his car, kicking a rock with his feet. Sejanus cleared his throat as he walked up to him, catching the other’s attention. He smiled, taking Sejanus’ hands in his and bringing him closer to him.

“Hey, baby.”

Sejanus smiled at the nickname, he noticed Coriolanus had started using it more since he let slip out he loved when Coriolanus called him that. It made his heart flutter, knowing he remembered such a small detail.

“Hi.”

Coriolanus pulled him in for a kiss, slowly lowering his lips to his neck. Sejanus sighed and closed his eyes, reeling in the feeling of Coriolanus’ body pressed against his. The other slightly leaned away, “You didn’t wear your perfume today.” He commented, and Sejanus couldn’t tell if he was disappointed or not.

“Sorry.” He apologized. Coriolanus unlocked the car and opened the door, gently pushing Sejanus in the backseat. The other didn’t oppose, and smiled when Coriolanus closed the car door behind him and, struggling, layed on top of Sejanus and started kissing him again.

“It’s fine,” He mumbled between kisses, removing Sejanus’ shirt, “It’s better, actually. This way your smell won’t linger in the car.”

Sejanus knew Coriolanus was right. It would have been a risk if Lucy Gray somehow was to recognize his smell. But then why did it hurt so much?

Take the words for what they are / A dwindling, mercurial high

Sejanus knew that what they were doing wasn’t fair. Lucy Gray seemed to really love Coriolanus, almost as much as Sejanus did. Though in Sejanus’ eyes it wasn’t quiet enough, he didn’t think anyone could love Coriolanus like he could.

Maybe that was why he kept on seeing him, the thought that deep down Sejanus was the only one to truly love Coryo helped him swallow the guilt down and keep it there, hidden, as Coriolanus gently caressed his cheeks while kissing him.

There was something about him, he couldn’t place what, that had made Sejanus fall so hard for him he couldn’t seem to get back up. Maybe his words, the way he pronounced them. All the sweet nothings he’d murmur in Sejanus’ ear every time they were together. Everything Coriolanus said Sejanus drank it from his lips like the best alcohol he ever tasted, getting drunker after every meeting, causing a hangover that seemed to last a lifetime.

Or maybe the lingering touch when they were in public, so different yet similar to the ones shared in private in the feeling they provoked in Sejanus’ heart.

Sejanus had never felt the way he did when he was with Coriolanus. He remembered when they shared their first kiss, how nervous he was and how dumb he felt for leaning in: Coriolanus was in a relationship, he would have never reciprocated his feelings!

A drug that only worked / The first few hundred times

Yet he kissed him back, almost immediately, and Sejanus flew to cloud nine. Coriolanus’ lips were like a drug to him, getting him high with every kiss.

Sejanus kept repeating to himself that it was normal, after all they were still in the first stage of their… relationship. The so-called “honeymoon phase”. They hadn’t been together for longer than two months, yet every time they made love it was just like the first time.

Every emotion Sejanus felt during their first night kept coming back to him each time Coriolanus would simply hold him, like some broken record he’d never get tired of playing over and over again.

He wasn’t sure, actually, if it could have been defined “honeymoon” since they weren’t exactly dating. Coriolanus had never called Sejanus his boyfriend, and Sejanus had never dared do so either. Then again, they didn’t have many conversations about what they were.

Sejanus couldn’t ask, what if Coriolanus thought it was weird and decided to leave him? He couldn’t risk what they had going on just over some foolish doubt he had. Coriolanus wanted him, and that was enough.

Right?

And that's the thing about illicit affairs / And clandestine meetings and stolen stares / They show their truth one single time / But they lie and they lie and they lie / A million little times

“Sejanus, are you okay darling? I feel like we haven’t talked much lately.”

Sejanus shook his head at his mother’s words and waved his hand as if to dismiss her, without looking up from his books. He couldn’t let her see his red, puffy eyes. He couldn’t trust himself to speak either, too scared his voice was going to break. “Just busy with school.” He let out, focusing on not letting another sob slip past his lips.

“Alright. I’ll call you when dinner’s ready?” She asked, a hint of sadness in her voice. It broke him to not be able to talk to his mother about his issue, but she’d hate him if he knew what he was doing.

“Yeah.” He replied, and his mother left and closed the door behind her. When he was sure she was out of hearing range he started crying again, letting the tears fall on his books and on the phone resting on his legs.

The screen was still unlocked, opened on the chat with Coriolanus where his last text read:

It was the third time it happened in a row. Coriolanus leaving Sejanus in his misery to hang out with Lucy Gray. She was his girlfriend, he knew he shouldn’t feel that way. But it wasn’t fair, didn’t Coriolanus care about Sejanus too? Wasn’t he Coriolanus’ lover too?

He did, there was no questioning that. Sejanus took a deep breath in, trying to contain his sobs. It wasn’t Coriolanus’ fault. He had to spend time with Lucy Gray, or else she would get suspicious. He understood why he was doing it, it just hurt so much Sejanus wished he didn’t.

He loved Coriolanus. A part of him hoped he felt the same, though he never told him. He probably was just scared of his feelings, after all they were just seventeen. They didn’t have all the answers to the mystery of love, he couldn’t blame Coriolanus for taking longer than he had to understand his feelings.

But he could blame himself for always lying to his ma’. That seemed to be so easy for him. So easy it hurt him more than all the lies he was forced to tell himself every day to remind himself why he was still with Coriolanus.

And you wanna scream / Don't call me "kid" / Don't call me "baby"

Sejanus hated that he couldn’t say no.

No, Coriolanus, I don’t want to meet in the parking lot behind your car so your girlfriend doesn’t see us.

No, Coriolanus, I don’t want to be treated like a puppet you use to have fun just to go back to Lucy Gray when you want to go on romantic dates.

No, Coriolanus, you can’t call me “baby” and think that’s enough to make things alright.

He had rehearsed a little speech he made to tell Coriolanus. He wanted to end things with Coryo, he was tired of being the other woman. And seeing him telling Lucy Gray he loved her, for the very first time, that truly had been his last straw. Sejanus was supposed to be in Lucy Gray’s place. Why not him?

Sejanus loved Coriolanus dearly, the moments they spent together was what he looked forward to the most. But after three months of repressing the voice that told him he was nothing but a mere replacement, Sejanus realized he couldn’t go on like this, he felt like he was going crazy.

And he wanted to yell those words at his face, wanted Coriolanus to cry for him just as Sejanus was so used to doing all the time he’d turn him down.

He thought of calling him, but Coriolanus had to look at him as he raged at him. He had to see what mess Sejanus had become because of him. He felt like he couldn’t fall for anyone else after him, Coriolanus had ruined him. For good.

Don't call me "kid," don't call me "baby" / Look at this idiotic fool that you made me / You taught me a secret language I can't speak with anyone else

Sejanus had gone as far as thinking of hooking up with someone else from school. If the jealousy didn’t kill Coriolanus the irony of the action surely would have had, how was he going to respond? “How dare you cheat on me, I would have never done something like that to you!” As if he wasn’t actively cheating on Lucy Gray with Sejanus himself?

Sometimes Sejanus would tell himself Coriolanus was cheating on him with Lucy Gray, a fucked up way that made him feel better about himself- and about Coriolanus. It took him weeks to realize that it was even worse, because - while it wasn’t an accurate description of their situation - Sejanus was just letting it happen. With no consequences, if not to his mental health.

And either way, even if Sejanus really wanted to go with someone else, he couldn’t. Every time he spoke to someone all he could hear in his head was Coriolanus, Coriolanus, Coriolanus.

And you know damn well / For you, I would ruin myself

But that same night Coriolanus texted him, he wanted to check on him because he’d noticed he was quieter than usual at school that day.

Yeah no shit. You told Lucy Gray the words I’ve been waiting my whole life to hear coming from your lips for me. He would have wanted to reply.

Instead Sejanus started crying, tears wetting his pillow and sheets, but he didn’t care. Coriolanus had seen he was upset, and now was making sure he was alright. After a few minutes Coriolanus sent a single red heart, and another text specifying it was okay if Sejanus didn’t want to talk but to at least let him know if he wanted to meet up tomorrow, after school.

All the angry words that flooded Sejanus’ mind disappeared the instant he saw the text. It was the first time Coriolanus asked him to meet not implying sex, just for the sake of seeing him. A smile formed itself on Sejanus’ features, a glimmer of hope lit up in his soul in an instant.

He felt weak, all it took was a red heart and smiley face from Coriolanus for Sejanus to drop everything and run into his arms. He should have said no, should have told him to go fuck himself and blocked him, just to ignore him at school.

Instead he agreed, and texted Coriolanus about the time and place where they could meet. Coryo replied with an excited <Great!> and another red heart.

Sejanus locked the phone and layed down in his bed in fetal position, thinking about Coriolanus.

His speech could surely wait another day, right?

A million little times.

Note

on the topic of batman and joker's -ahem- tension-filled fights, do you have any canon examples of their fights being explicitly (as explicit as canon batman media can get) being filled with physical tension?

Heh. I have many, many examples. Half my comic panel collection is Batman-on-Joker violence. I really enjoy their fights (hence my recent fic), even though some of them may barely qualify as that -- since Joker has a habit of putting up a little resistance and then letting Bruce beat the crap out of him.

There have been a lot of great ones over time, but I will limit myself to closest-to-explicit canon fights (moments that either textually or subtextually make romantic/sexual references). Putting the whole thing under the cut due to the numerous comic panels included.

♡ Batman: Endgame

Look. I still have no idea how they sneaked this past DC. Some of the panels are so... sexually suggestive it's unbelievable (I guess Mr. Capullo also thinks Batman tops and Joker is a power bottom, huh. Very valid of him.)

...I can't look at these for too long, they make me go crazy.

♡ Batman: Death of the Family

This whole thing is filled to the brim with sexual innuendo, both textually and visually, but I’ll include just a few faves.

Oh, Bruce. Pulling your nemesis into a dance pose... holding hands during the fight... whispering into your nemesis’ year something that could undo them... Yeah, we all do that!

♡ Batman: Hush

One of their most brutal fights, and one of the times Bruce came close to killing Joker. So. Obviously there's so much tension you can cut it with one of Joker's knives.

(Here you can also see Bruce’s choking kink, and more generally his thing for Joker’s neck popping up again, which... I swear to God, he’s obsessed. Even the alternate versions of him that kill Joker do it by snapping his neck (or tearing into it, for vampire!Batman). If you include that dream Clark had about it in Injustice, and then Bruce recently fantasizing about strangling Joker in Urban Legends... five times, just off the top of my head. Incredible. Wonder if a writer ever went ‘How about blunt force trauma for once??’ but then the spirit of Bruce Wayne reached from the fictional plane to go ‘Nah. Break that neck. Break it.’)

♡ Detective Comics (1937) #781

For this example, I'd have to copy-paste the whole freaking issue. It’s one big date for them, packed full of flirting. The story is basically Bruce knowing Joker wanted a fight and indulging him (even teasing him) to get him to talk about a case. I fully recommend reading the whole thing, but I will include some of my favorite moments -- like the hair-pulling, and casually discussing case details while sitting on top of Joker or strangling is occuring:

♡ Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #61

Features another one of my top ‘most unhinged Bruce moments’: beating up Joker while he’s helpless and in a straitjacket because Joker’s enjoying it -- Bruce doesn’t! He’s pleasuring Joker through pain for the case. All the other times he beats Joker up when Joker barely puts up a fight are... uh, well there might not always be a case, but Bruce doesn’t enjoy it, he swears!

(Gotta say though. “It’s a two-player game with Joker-- always has been. Always will be.” This thought of Bruce’s comes dangerously close to self-awareness. And really, do you need to focus so much on Joker’s mouth?)

♡ Detective Comics (2011) #1

This is just such a... quintessential Batman/Joker fight. There isn’t specifically a panel that I can point to because I just love the whole thing; might not be as suggestive as others, but on the whole it’s maddening. The fight happening after Batman chased Joker, the way he always does. Joker stabbing Bruce, but not lethally on purpose; it being too fast for Bruce to counteract. Bruce saying “You’re done”, snarling “Anyone else would kill you” as he holds Joker by the throat, and Joker mockingly replying “That’s your problem.” This is it.

♡ Batman: The Dark Knight Returns

This one’s a classic (though technically not canon). Because if the whole fight taking place in the Tunnel of Love doesn’t drive it home, Joker spelling it out that Batman killing him is the climax of the fight (which he didn’t deliver) sure does. So does the famous panel of Batman and Joker lying there as if post-orgasm.

♡ Batman: Europa

Also not canon, but I mean. How can I not. Someone infects Batman and Joker with a virus and puts the cure inside the other one’s blood... All of it leading to the most homoerotic panels imaginable and pretty much the out-of-sight implication they fought and then Joker kissed Batman:

+ As a little extra, may I just include some absolutely insane gestures Bruce has pulled during fights with Joker... because they deeply haunt me, and now they shall haunt you too. They indicate Bruce having such a deep entitlement to Joker’s person, like him just knocking Joker out and dragging him away or carrying him like he’s cargo, like he’s a possession Bruce is taking back to the box he puts all his favorite toys in (Arkham). It all makes me want to howl at the moon a little.

♡ Injustice: Ground Zero #6

Grabbing an alternate vesion of your nemesis by the tongue is a perfectly normal thing to do. So is dragging him by his tie, while he’s helpless and tied-up, somewhere private where you can beat him up!

♡ Batman: Cacophony

Shoving your fingers in the nose of your nemesis while teasing and flirting verbally, in the context of a fight, is also a perfectly reasonable thing to do! Just like saving his wretched life when he gets shot moments later, even though Jim Gordon is begging you to let him die...

I have other examples of fights between them that I like, but they’re not as suggestive as these ones so I tried to cut back (or they’re from Batman: White Knight which I sadly dislike). And yet, this still got long.

But I hope you enjoyed, anon! Thank you for the opportunity to rant a bit.

The Lady and the Lord

Chapter 11

Eddie munson x fem!reader

This is a repost since the old blog doesn't work anymore. 🥰

Chapter summary: some domestic (well deserved) time for our heroes.

Chapter warnings: spoiler season 4, cuteness.

I don't think there are words to describe what I'm feeling right now.

Hopper, El and I sitting on the floor of Hopper's cabin, because they didn't have time to fix everything else properly yet, eating some pizza.

"God... I missed pizza" Hopper basically moans as he eats a slice.

"I bet" I nod. "Now we gotta get you back to your previous form"

"Don't worry. I'll get there in no time. Gotta make up for all that... well...whatever they fed us" he says with a chuckle.

I can't imagine what he's been through all this time... he deserves to rest... well deserved.

"I missed you" El suddenly says and we turn our head to look at her.

"I missed you too... both of you" Hopper smiles "even if you were a real pain in the ass sometimes"

El and Hopper laugh.

"That's not true!" I defend myself.

"You're right, you're right... you were a real bane" he chuckles and I open my mouth shocked by his words, but amused at the same time.

"You're really not the one to make that argument?!" I challenge.

"What? What did I do?" He laughs.

"You weren't that better" El agrees with me.

"Ah!" I exclaim.

"You two are trying to make me regret the Russian prison? Is that what this is?" He jokes taking another big bites of pizza.

"Never. We don't want to lose you anymore" I say with a smile, looking at El who nods.

"Neither do I" Hopper smile is genuine.. Happy and relieved. As if now he can finally take a break.

I feel my eye getting wet from happy tears so I just blink them away with a chuckle.

"Okay, I don't need any more crying. Let's talk about something else" I declare eating my own slice of pizza.

They nod laughing with me.

"Who... who's Eddie? Dustin talked a lot about him" El softly asks.

Oh god.

"Yeah" Hop take advantage of her question "who is Eddie? Uh?"

"I'm so happy you're here I-" I try to change subject again, but Hopper cuts me off.

"Oh no, no, you won't get away with it now. No Harrington to save you this time either. Who. Is. Eddie?" He says with the most triumphant grin I've ever seen.

"Fuck..." I mutter, I look at El, she sends me an apologetic, yet teasing smile so I take a deep breath "he's my boyfriend... since, uh... today"

"Wait... is this Eddie Munson? As in the drug dealer?" He suddenly asks.

"Yeah..." I say, ready to hear him say I shouldn't be with him.

"He better be treating you right, then" he simply says, catching me off guard.

"Wait... is he okay to you? Like no 'you shouldn't associate yourself with people like him' or something?"

"He's always been a good kid, okay? Not a Saint... far from it. But... he did what he had to do. His father wasn't the best person out there" He explains.

"Yeah.. I know" I sigh.

"So... as long as he treats you right and doesn't do anything illegal... he's alright to me" he gently smiles.

"You love him?" El asks. I look at her smiling at me, I nod.

"He better not break your heart"

"Yeah yeah, Steve already gave him the speech" I wave him off.

"Harrington?" Hopper asks sceptically "Cool-Hair? Really?"

I nod, holding back a laugh.

"Okay.." he sighs "I will have to give this Eddie the actual speech, then"

At that El and I burst out laughing, loudly. Hop looks at us with a warm smile before laughing with us.

The evening goes on like this, laughs and catch ups.

Hopped told us about his time in Russia, how he managed to befriend one fo the guards and then escaped with Joyce and Murray's help.

El told us about her experience in high school in California. Which made my blood boil after hearing about this Angela treating her like shit. She then told us how she got her powers back, about Brenner being alive and about what she discovered about her past... how she first defeated One.

I gently grab her hand after she finished talking and she smile at me, grateful.

I told them about Chrissy, how Eddie had to hide because the whole town thought he was the killer. I told them about us being stuck in the Upside Down, our plan and how Eddie almost died to help us.

When it got late Hopper offered to drive me home so I wish El goodnight and go to get in the car with Hop.

"You sure he treats you right?" Hopper asks while he drives.

"I'm sure, Hop. He's really nice" I tell him.

"Gotta meet him.. I mean.. it's my job, now" he says seriously, but I can tell he's smiling.

" you will, I promise. Just don't be too harsh on him, uh?"

"I'll try. No promises."

"So..." I start, after a while, with a teasing tone.

"So?"

"You and Joyce?"

"What about it?" He asks trying to sound casual about it.

"You needed a year in a russian prison to grow some balls?" I tease.

"For the record... I asked her out before being captured. I just got held up" he defends.

"Mmh... I'll ask her" I declare.

"Go ahead" he invites proudly.

I laugh.

"I'm happy for you, Hop" I say "like.. really happy"

"So am I" he replies. "I'm also very proud of you"

"What for?" I ask confused.

"You grew up so much from last time. Not only physically, but you are braver, more confident. Not that you weren't before... but you know. I talked to Dustin and the others, they told me how you defended them. From monsters and from these jocks that hunted your boyfriend down, gotta give me the names by the way, I'm proud of you"

"How do you know about that?" I ask surprised.

"Dustin" he simply answers.

Oh Dusty..

"I got it from you" I shyly say after a moment. "The bravery"

"Nah, you might be a Hopper now, but that courage has always been there. You just needed to believe in yourself a bit more" he chuckles.

"Maybe" I shrug.

"No, no, it's always been there. Trust me. Stop putting yourself down." He gently scolds me.

"I'm trying"

"You better be"

He pulls up to my house and stops the car.

"Thank you" I tell him.

"No problem. It's good to be back to the old habit" he says.

"I..." I start "Uh... when El won't need to hide anymore... maybe.. uh..maybe you two can live here..?"

Silence falls in the car.

"What about your independence, uh?" He tries, to check if I'm messing with him, I think.

" I know how being independent feels like... I think I want to find out what having a family at home feels like.." I look down playing with my rings as I keep talking "there's enough space to gain two more bedrooms... and, uh... it's close to the police station too."

There's silence again so I turn my head to look at Hopper... wiping away some tears.

"Are you crying?" I ask surprised.

"Of course I am!" He replies as a matter of fact and I softly laugh.

"Should I take it as a yes?" I then ask, rhetorically.

"You should. Yes" he tells me with a proud smile. "Now go get some sleep. It's already very late"

I get out of the car with a smile.

"Don't start being the strict father you tend to be!" I warn him.

"You signed the papers, I can be whatever father I want" he jokes.

"The best one. I know" I tell him walking away, not before noticing a surprised and tender smile growing on his face.

I got home and for the first time in a long time I slept like a baby.

No monster to fight, no douchebag to avoid... just a peaceful night of sleep.

"Thanks again for driving us, Argyle" I thank Jonathan's friend, who gently offered to drive me to get Eddie from the hospital.

I'm sitting in the back with Dustin, while Jonathan sits in the front, he and Dustin helped me look around Eddie's destroyed trailer to see what survived and what could be fixed.

One thing in particular seemed to survive just fine. Can't wait to show it to Eddie.

"No problemo" Argyle answers.

"And thank you Jonathan for helping us this morning" Dustin says.

"Don't worry about it, Dustin. Glad I helped." Jonathan smiles.

"You're curious to know Eddie, aren't you?" Dustin asks with a proud grin and I roll my eyes with a laugh.

"Gotta say yes" he laughs.

"I knew it!" Dustin exclaims.

"Why?" I laugh.

"Because one Dustin and Lucas can't seem to shut up about him and two you're family, I need to be sure he's good enough for you" Jonathan explains.

I smile at that, we really are family.

"Are you too gonna threaten him? Get in line I'm afraid" I tell him.

"Who else?" He asks taken aback.

"Well... Steve already gave him the speech, Dustin here wants too, Hop 'gotta meet him'... so... yeah, get in line" I chuckle.

"Can I get in line too?" Argyle asks, as if he asked if the sit is taken or something "you seem cool, dude, and if you're Jonathan's friend, you're my friend too"

"Thank you, Argyle" I laugh.

"Also... Steve doesn't count" Dustin comments.

"Oohh I'll tell him you said that!"

"You won't!"

"I will" I laugh.

We finally get to the hospital and Dustin and I go get Eddie while Jonathan and Argyle stay in the parking lot.

Dustin knocks at the door and when we hear Eddie's voice telling us to come in we enter.

"There he is!" Dustin announces.

Eddie's standing up putting putting on his shirt and smiles brightly when he sees us.

"Thought you never came" he jokes.

"I tried to leave you here, but Dustin missed you too much" I joke walking to him.

"You tried, uh?" He grabs my waist to pull me to him.

"I did, he didn't listen... now I'm stuck with you" I say feigning annoyance.

"Oh poor lady" he mocks.

"Uh... guys" Dustin speaks "do you mind? Not in front of me? Please?"

"Sorry" I say with a small laugh.

"I'm not sorry, but fine" Eddie shrugs and lets go of me.

"Ready to go, then?" I ask him.

"Yeah" he says grabbing a small bag with some clothes we brought him.

We walk to the exit and I feel Eddie walking as close to me as possible.

I notice some of the people there sending him hatred and scared looks. Even if both the chief and police officers dropped any accusations towards him, and even apologised to him, people in this town can't help but still blame him.

Eddie walks looking down, afraid of what he might see if he met one of those stare, so I grab his hand, squeezing it as we walk, and finally I feel him relaxing as we arrive at the parking lot to Jonathan and Argyle.

We all planned a small dinner with everyone, both to have a real first moment of relief and also to give Lucas an excuse to take a break.

We stop to grab some pizza in this little place close to Family Video, so we can pick up Steve and Robin and then go to the Wheeler's house.

As we wait Robin and Steve joins us.

"Hey there!" Robin and Steve greet us.

"Hey, man. How do you feel?" Steve asks Eddie.

"A lot better" Eddie answers.

"That's good because..." Robin starts walking up to Eddie "because if you dare, or even slightly remotely think about hurting my friend... you are completely and utterly done"

"She skipped the line!" Argyle exclaims.

"Trust me... that's definitely not in my plans.." Eddie replies, taken aback.

"Oh god" I mutter "Guys, can you please stop threatening my boyfriend?"

A chorus of 'ooh's emerges from the group and Eddie turns to me with a proud grin.

"Yeah, guys, and stop getting my girlfriend all flustered" he pulls me to him "that's my job"

A fake gag sound escapes Dustin mouth at that, but I know he's the happiest about it.

After a while of chatting as we wait some people come in, we simply acknowledge them and get back at listening to Jonathan and Argyle talking about California, but I can still feel them staring... and unfortunately I know who they're staring at.

I stay close to Eddie, knowing he feels their stare too, and I try to give him as much comfort as I can.

I lock eyes with Steve who looks at me with a questioning look so I slightly nod at the people staring at us.

Surprisingly Steve turns around to look at them.

"Got a problem?" He asks making them jump taken aback. "Go mind your own business, uh?"

He turns back around and motion Jonathan to go on, and I see him sending Eddie a supporting nod to which Eddie answers with a thankful one.

When we finally get the pizza we immediately head to the Wheeler's.

"No way!" Eddie exclaims " the neverending story song? Really?"

He sits with Lucas, Dustin and Will on the floor and they're telling him about last summer. Dustin tries to hid himself, embarrassed.

Me and the rest sit on the couch and armchairs around them, Mike is with El in Hopper's cabin.

"And he sang it beautifully" I chime in.

"Yeah, Henderson, should've recorded it" Steve joins.

"Ooh I wish I could have been there!" Eddie jokes.

"Oh, no, trust me, you don't" Jonathan tell him, with a small chuckle. "It was messy"

"Yeah, I was just acting tough, man" Eddie replies.

"Just like you pretend you're that big coward, when in reality you're not." Dustin tells him.

"Yeah, Munson you're a hero. Take some credits" Steve says with a shrug.

"The whole town thinks otherwise" he sadly mutters.

"We think you are. And we're the smartest persons you could ever meet so... we're right" Dustin states.

"You do?" Eddie asks.

"Of course, love" I rub his shoulders to comfort him, making him turn around.

"Thanks" he sweetly say, then turn to everyone "really, thank you"

"Plus... I guess we are all freaks here. We stick together" Robin states.

"Exactly!" Dustin exclaims ecstatic.

"Always" Lucas agrees.

"Hey, guys" Karen enters the basement. "Can someone come up here and help me bring down some snacks?"

"We already got pizza, mom" Nancy tells her.

"Can't eat that all night, c'mon" Karen encourages.

I look at Nancy rolling her eyes and getting up.

"I'll come too" I say getting up as well.

"Thanks" she says as we go upstairs.

We arrive in the kitchen and start helping Mrs Wheeler with the snacks.

"It's so nice having you all back to hang out like that" she comments "helping each other out, supporting each other"

"That's what family does, isn't it?" I shyly say.

"Exactly" she replies with a big and warm smile.

I look at Nancy, who's also smiling.

"We also got two good additions I think" she jokes.

"Oh yeah, that.. Argyle seems very nice, a bit in his own world, but nice" Karen says "and Eddie" she looks at me.

"Yeah?" I ask confused.

"Is he nice?" I can hear the teasing in her tone.

"I... well.. yeah.. I mean, everyone loves him" I nervously chuckle.

I see Nancy and her mother sharing a knowing look.

"What's that look?" I ask, half amused by their teasing.

"Oh nothing, nothing. Is he nice... to you?"

I look at Nancy, knowing she already told her mother about me and Eddie, but she shrugs innocently.

"Yeah, Mrs Wheeler. He is" I say, with my cheeks heating up when she gives me a knowing look.

"I'm glad to hear it, sweetie" she gently says, as she puts some peanut butter on a piece of bread.

"He can't seem to have eye for nothing else" Nancy chimes in.

"Yeah, okay, stop teasing me" I jokingly complain.

"Alright alright, c'mon there you go, girls. Have fun" Karen hands us the rest of the snacks she made and me and Nancy walk back downstairs.

"We got food!" Nancy announces and we pit all the food on the table with the rest of the pizza.

"Whoa, does she think we're gonna starve to death?" Steve comments.

"Well, I'm not complaining" Robin replies as she grabs one sandwich.

I walk back to sit on my spot behind Eddie, who still sits on the floor.

"I missed you" he says to me and I tenderly smile at him, still shy from his affection.

We went on chatting and telling stories about the Upside Down so both Eddie and Argyle, who is surprisingly excited about it asking the most absurd questions. For example he asked if we used actual dog snacks to catch the demo-dogs... he definitely is the funniest addition to the group.

"Okay guys it's getting late, I hate to kick ypu out, but you're parents would kill me" Karen says as she enter the basement.

"Yeah, we better go too. We got a shift at Family video tomorrow morning" Robin explains.

"Alright, let's go then" Jonathan declares standing up and kissing Nancy goodnight.

We all wish Nancy and her parents goodnight before getting into Argyle pizza van.

The first stop is Dustin house.

"Goodnight guys!" He jumps out.

"Goodnight Dusty" I say.

"Oh! Before I forget.." he turns back around pointing his finger at Eddie.

"Oh god..."

"Yeah?" Eddie pays attention.

"She's my sister, Munson. Okay? You hurt her and I'm gonna, personally, shave your hair, then I'm gonna revive one of those bats and cage you in a small closet with it" he seriously tells him.

"Does anyone else want to threaten me?" Eddie asks.

"Well..." Jonathan starts.

"There's a line, dude" Argyle explains.

"You had to be so nice, uh?" Eddie sarcastically says to me, smiling amused.

"It's not my fault. I tried to make them stop" I defend.

"I'm serious, Munson" Dustin repeats.

"I know, Henderson, I know. And trust me, for the millionth time, I have no intention of hurting this lovely lady" Eddie simply says.

"You better" Dustin glares at him before walking to his house.

"Okay, guys, seriously, now stop threatening him, thank you very much." I chuckle.

"Okay"

"Yeah"

"Sorry" Steve mutters.

"Let's go, please" I ask laughing, basically. They're all so sweet, of course, but poor Eddie.

Once we arrive at my house me and Eddie get out of the van.

"Goodnight" Eddie says grabbing his bag.

"Goodnight and thanks for the ride"

"Y/n, one more thing?" Steve calls "Uh... if you hurt him, I'll... uh... hurt you"

Really?

Everyone laughs.

I think he's trying to make Eddie feel really apart of the group, he gave up on his "non-jealousy" and he wants to make him feel included.

"Ooh.. I'm so scared" I sarcastically say, with a chuckle.

I walk back grabbing Eddie's hand and leading him to the house.

"I appreciate the effort though, Harrington!" Eddie yells at him.

"Anytime!" Steve yells back as they drive off.
