yandere! vox with fem!reader scenario
Tumblr media
Warning: obsessive behavior, implied violence, stalking, implied emotional and physical abuse, brief mention of toxic relationship [vox/val], implied brainwashing, knowledge based on spoilers from the first two episodes of the 2024 show and the Hazbin Hotel comics.
There may be possible triggers in this story.
If you do not feel comfortable venturing any further, please hit the 'back' button on your device or computer and read something much more pleasant than a possible series of unfortunate events.
You are responsible for your own Internet consumption!
Hey guys, welcome back to another Hazbin Hotel fic, starring Hell's one and only flat-screened overlord, Vox! Special thanks to @isuckatwritingsobenice and @lbcreations-blog for helping me shape up the rough draft of this piece, I can't wait until I get enough time off from work to watch this series! :)
So with that being said, sit back, relax, and let's go live with Vox's broadcast!
The overlord of technology has been in an on-off relationship with Valentino for a while, so any affection Vox has received from the egotistical prick is either a ploy to get him to do whatever he wanted or that the owner of the Porn Studios was in the mood to play the role of a lover before he got bored again. He had a brand and reputation to uphold in Hell, so any word about him and Val being together is kept under tight wraps. No one knows about it except maybe Velvette. God knows how many times the moth demon had wreaked havoc in the fashion designer’s office on the way to his own quarters, red smoke and all.
Of course the one tantrum when the television demon decided to not fight back and just dump Val’s ass because he was sick and tired of the bullshit, it had to happen a week until Velvette’s new clothing line was about to go live. So of course he, the most level-headed one of the Three Vs and the one responsible for the mess, had to clean it up. Yeah, just another fucking day with Val. Fuck his life. 
Anyway, he’s a very busy man managing the other V’s social media networks including his own workload in his own studio. Considering that he’s now single again (at least for the moment), he saw no reason to get involved with anyone else right now unless it was to relieve some of his frustrations…privately. Late one evening and on his third cup of coffee, Vox was going through the applications that responded to Velvette’s newest job post. Same occupation, same shitty pay, but every designer and seamstress in the Pride Ring wanted to work with Hell’s queen of fashion. He was just weeding out the applicants who did not have what his associate wanted in an employee. And he’s doing it because he owed a favor, not because he can’t sleep. That was when Vox saw your resume. 
He skimmed through it, raising an eyebrow in slight interest. It seemed a little embellished…but the credentials were there, at least from what he could see. And you were good-looking, so that is a bonus too. Shrugging his shoulders, he swiped his hand to the right, sending the document to the small electronic pile of Maybe and moved on to the next one. That one immediately got sent to the Rejection pile. 
A few weeks later, he saw you working in Velvette’s studio through the cameras, hunched over a desk and so entirely focused on a sketchpad that you paid no mind to her chewing out to the other designers about their shitty designs for the next collection. 
“You! New Girl!” 
Her peevish voice addressing you was what brought you out of your reverie. Straightening your spine, you turned to her and quickly strode to her. You must have known what she wanted, because you gave her the sketchpad. Velvette flipped through it, eyeing the pages critically until her bloodshot eyes widened in delight, tapping a manicured black nail against it rapidly before dragging you to a mannequin, barking at you to start creating whatever caught her attention. And it was rare for Velvette to be pleased with anyone else’s works except her own. Her creativity is what kept her clothing line at the pinnacle of fashion. You were getting more and more interesting as he began to watch you more throughout the day. Discreetly, of course. Vox would be damned if his associate found out that he’s eyeing one of her employees. 
He saw how dedicated you were to your work, how you thrived under pressure from Velvette instead of crumbling from it and that was when your creativity blossomed into its full potential. But what he admired about you the most is that you were always calm. You never raised your voice at anyone. You always looked at a problem as if you were dissecting it before making a move. Creative thinkers took risks, and so did you. 
But he’s not looking for a relationship. He wants to focus on his work. He wants to make his business thrive and crush any competition who would dare to try and get one up over him. He is annoyed as fuck that you’ve caught his attention and hasn’t done anything to make him want to stop looking at you. Why won’t you leave his mind? Why is he constantly looking through your social media accounts to see what you’re up to and if there is anyone else in your life? Why?
Because he’s fucked. Fuck his life. 
Vox believes that he is the brains behind the Three Vs’ success and how they could not have made it this far without his technology and other businesses. But the truth is that this overlord, the one who commanded over electronics, can be emotionally immature if he is pushed too far. You saw how he acted when Alastor made his comeback, right? If you did, well, you now know that his buttons can be pushed if he isn’t seen or acknowledged by someone. And if you were to ignore him as the Radio Demon did…you better run. 
Because if there is a screen or a camera, he will use it to find you no matter where you are in Hell. There is no doubt that he will jump out of it with a static pop, begging you to give him a chance to prove himself with fat, watery tears falling down his flat-screen face. 
He is an overlord, one of the Three Vs. He is good-looking, charming, a manipulator, a liar, he could use his powers to hypnotize into submission if he really wanted to and runs a successful business. What more could you possibly want when he is obviously the best choice to have as a lover in Hell? Can’t you see? You belong to him!

What if bruce had an abusive childhood ( i love thomas and martha but WHAT IF) and the batkids and clark just find out
I actually have lots of thoughts about this, anon. Not abusive in the sense of like, really overt hidden physical abuse, but the abusive-adjacent childhood of someone growing up into a ultra-wealthy family and all of the emotional distance and insane boundary crossing that happens in those kinds of situations.
Some initial thoughts (not that this is canon or even something I hc, but still pop up in my mind):
Distant parents (Bruce never saw them, except for when they were going to events together)
Bruce was raised by nannies and Alfred (first steps, diapers changed, fed and bathed, etc only by servants)
Strict behavioral expectations even in early childhood (language and music lessons, various etiquette courses for dinners, events, etc. Sitting still for long periods of time without moving or speaking)
Being ignored and/or referred to but not allowed to speak. Paraded out for events as a toy, essentially.
Missing out on childhood experiences like playing outside, getting dirty, playing with other children.
Being sent away from home at an early age to various boarding and preparatory schools, year-round.
The pathway to college, a job, a career was purchased for Bruce before he was even born, and there is no room to deviate from that path.
Punished for normal reactions (getting clothes dirty, making a mistake with cutlery, forgetting to ask permission for something)
Approval from his parents, when he does see them, is contingent upon how he performs for them while they are in public.
An absolute lack of almost any physical contact/affection.
If this was Bruce's childhood (I'm glad it wasn't in canon, it sounds awful) then his parents' deaths must be such a mindfuck. Because those memories are so tainted by his childhood upbringing, but at the same time -- were they good people? Beloved by the public? Was the show they put on in public convincing enough for people not to peek behind the curtain? Did Gotham society treat all ultra-wealthy children like this? Were the Waynes special because of their status?
How did Alfred feel about seeing this happen? Was there an awful feeling of relief when Martha and Thomas died, and he became Bruce's custodian? Maybe he snuck Bruce hugs over the years, here and there -- small cookies or permission to run outside once or twice.
Now, there are far fewer rules. But the damage from those rules is hard to undo, even at such a young age. And the first time Bruce asks him for a hug is the day that nearly breaks Alfred.

While healing we may confuse:
confidence with arrogance Having faith and trusting yourself and your abilities has nothing to do with being/acting/feeling superior or presumptuos to anyone else (=being arrogant). You are just objectively stating your worth: you cannot diminish it as you cannot diminish the worth of 500 bucks. It is what it is. And so is you. Plus, no one is going to give you a prize for playing yourself down, they'll actually listen to you and not value you enough too.
having your needs met/putting yourself first with being selfish and egoist Asking for help or support, giving love to yourself first, has nothing to do with not considering others or their needs (=being selfish or egoist). You're only considering yourself as anyone else. You need help too, sometimes a little more than another, and it's fine. It happens. The next time is gonna be the opposite. That's how life is, and how you're being balanced between giving and receiving.
assertiveness with aggression (esp. if we've always being on the passive side) If you're setting boundaries, standing your ground or standing up for something you believe in or just yourself, you're not being aggressive. You're not attacking the other or being violent with them, you're not diminishing them (=aggression), you're just standing tall saying "no" to something you don't want to do, for example.
While healing, we are learning to be more self aware and realize where it's our past/traumatic experience speaking for us. Especially if we've been through cptsd, we have experienced multiple difficult situations and therefore we may not entirely realize what it means to have a good emotional health, and confuse some feelings for something they're not. To find it all out, we need to get out of our comfort zone, and take a few risks. Check with the new uncomfortable feelings we get the moment we set boundaries, we ask for help, we give ourselves credit for something we've done..., and try to understand them and welcome them. But also overcome them. If we feel like we cannot control the line between the differences listed above, we can always ask for support/feedback to people around us, we can talk things out, find compromises. But remember: it's okay to just try and tell the world "Hey I exist too! I'm worthy and I have needs and likes/dislikes as everyone else". It's totally fine. It's your right.

To recap:
Cora criticized Regina's love of the equestrian arts
Cora criticized Regina's expression of femininity
Cora criticized Regina's personal priorities (personal fulfillment/love over status)
Cora insisted that her constant criticism of Regina (and all that she likes/thinks/feels/does) is "help"
Cora used magic on Regina even though Regina had told her in the past she does not like it when she does that
Cora wrapped Regina in belts to control her, showing that she will physically abuse her daughter "if she has to"
Cora considered disagreement from Regina the same thing as disobedience
Cora herself only values power, status, and "upwards trajectory"
Henry - despite his courage - could not properly stand up to his wife, be on equal footing with her, or protect his daughter because of the magic that Cora abused
After Regina had saved Snow, Cora literally said to her daughter "Finally, dear, you did something right."
Cora magically changed Regina's clothes without asking her
Cora accepted a marriage proposal for Regina without even consideration what Regina wanted
Cora manipulated a ten-year-old
Cora openly admitted that she views Regina's life as hers because she is the one who "had to make the sacrifices" to get them to where they are - effectively showing narcissistic tendencies
Cora manipulated her own daughter with fake approval
Cora ripped out Daniel's heart right in front of Regina and turned his heart to ash. Cora killed Regina's true love right in front of her.
Are Regina's actions right? No. Are Regina's actions understandable? Well, if you were raised like that, you would be fucked up too.

catra vs chipped catra: a comparison
someone might have already done it before but i've been meaning to make a post with direct comparisons of the way chipped catra treated adora and the way catra generally treated adora.
because the whole point of a character being mind controlled is that they're completely out of character and does things that they normally wouldn't, right? and according to c//a shippers, catra would have never done any of this if it wasn't for prime.
so let's see how different her behaviour really was.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
physical violence? ✅
Tumblr media
using her claws on adora? ✅
Tumblr media Tumblr media
unwanted manipulative physical touch? ✅
Tumblr media
emotional manipulation and victim blaming? ✅
it's so funny that chipped catra only threatens to drop adora off a cliff while catra in her right mind actually does it. multiple times.
Tumblr media
even the position and framing in some of these scenes are eerily similar.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
i just— how do you mess up a mind control trope so bad? it's one of the easiest ways to add some angst into a story but what's the point if you're mind controlling the villain and making them do the same atrocious things they do in their right mind?
in catra's own words,

I know it doesn’t change what you’ve been through or are currently going through, but there is still a future for you that is safe and warm.
You can create your own home.
A home with no slamming doors, or screaming.
A home full of love and compassion.
A home where you can get up in the middle of the night and grab a snack or water without feeling like you have to tiptoe in fear.
A home that isn’t full of passive aggressive comments.
A home that isn’t full of tension and anger.
A home where you feel safe and warm.
That future is still available to you. Please hang in there.

Growing up with someone who kept on judging you, pointing out when you were doing even the most normal things ever (as having a cookie at 4/5PM), but in a repetitive and kinda abusive way, is really painful. It shakes you from the inside. It makes you doubt about what you do, about you being wrong, not being enough. Especially if it's the cherry on top of many other abusive behaviours you have experienced.
It's something that probably your caregiver, being triggered themselves by that same action, cannot consciously understand nor refrain from doing. It's their mind going "Oh, they're doing this thing! Point it out! They're worse than you, yay!", cause of how they probably had to grow up as well, being judged, being accused for no particular reason. Maybe sometimes they still do that same action, but in their mind they feel as if it's wrong or aren't behaving (even if nobody judges them directly anymore, their mind is simply wired that way). They probably always felt a second choice compared with someone else in their family, not smart or good enough, they may have felt guilty too after doing any normal action, and now they seek comfort in judging others and feeling better than them. And seek validation from others as well, by pointing these things out loud too, in a repetitive way. Making you feel even worse. They may even compare what you do to other people that they normally consider "bad", people they like to watch and judge a lot, and point out their mistakes or quirks too. This ofc can only make it worse to you, cause your unconscious mind reads this as "You're as bad as them in your caregiver's mind". And it makes you shut down entirely and give up or stop your action. Which, instead, makes your caregiver get offended: "I was only saying, why do you stop?". And this starts a new situation: you are getting a double opposite feedback. And you don't know what to trust. You cannot trust someone that gaslights and manipulates you. But it's still their mind, not letting them see what they are doing to you, not letting them realize is what they have been going through all their life and are repeating onto you. They cannot stop or see the reason behind all that they are doing, they cannot understand that they are hurting you, even if they went through the same. Minds work so subtly at times.
But please, you. Try your best to let them be. Focus on you, do what you want and let your caregiver speak. Don't take their words so deeply into you. I know they pain you, I know. But focus on what makes you happy and, despite the abuse (which is hard to not pay attention too), find your way to complete any action you were doing that was supposed to make yourself happy, and to take care of yourself. Maybe tell your caregiver they are hurting you with their words. Talk with them, help them realize. Or just pretend they're not there. I know it's very hard, but I also know you can make it. You come first. and you're not doing anything wrong, despite what your caregivers' mind wants you to think. Push away from you their own trauma. It's not yours. It's not you.
This doesn't have to happen only with your caregivers tbh. It can happen also in other type of relationships. Your family though, may make these type of thoughts much more rooted inside of you cause you have been forming a lot of your emotional side in your early days. But whatever is the type of abusive relationship you may have experienced, please, try to find your peace of mind, to get away from it at least mentally. To stand your ground and talk things out (but ofc if it's someone way too abusive, just leave).
