Michael B Jordan x actress!reader

I fell in love with Killmonger again thanks to Wakanda Forever 💖😍 After rewatching my favourite Michael B Jordan movies, I couldn't help but disassociate a little bit. So, hope you enjoy it! 💘✨

│CASTING

Y/N always knew she wanted to be an actress. Since she was a little girl and watched with her grandmother some novelas, trying to memorize the lines so she could recite it late at night in her bed. She dreamed to one day star in one of the Hollywood films she had grown up watching; one day she would meet her favorite actors and, if she was lucky, perform alongside them.

At eighteen, with a scholarship for a theater course and her dreams, she moved to LA. The first few weeks were magical; everything was new, and she found herself walking through the locations of her favorite movies. The fantasies quickly ran out of steam; the scholarship was full but didn’t cover her expenses, and with her savings dwindling and the money running out like water, Y/N needed a job.

Luckily, a Mexican restaurant was hiring, so Y/N put her Spanish skills to use and got the job with a little persistence and kindness. Although it was a part-time position, she occasionally put in extra time to make up for going out to auditions.

It was her 100th casting test when her nineteenth birthday arrived. Her roommates sung "happy birthday" and bought her a cupcake. Wishing she had  lucky, Y/N blew the candle.

 ◦ ◦ ◦

"They're looking for a Latina actress between the ages of 18 and 24." Julie, one of her roommates, said while grabbing a flyer. "They left it at the college; I thought you may give it a try."

“I guess; It won't harm to give it a shot.��� Y/N muttered.

That's how she ended up in a chair, dangling her feet nervously, waiting her turn. Each girl returning from the test had a mixture of delight and disappointment on their faces, leaving her confused. Y/N reread the script for the fiftyth time when her name was called. Before stepping into the room, she took a big breath.

“So when you're ready, Y/LN.” As he sat down next to three other people, the producer spoke.

Y/N inhaled deeply, closed her eyes to get into character, and started reciting her lines.

"The real monsters don’t hide in the dark, under your bed, or in the woods." While speaking, she slowly raised her gaze. “They live with us; we pass them on the streets daily." 

"The truly terrifying monsters are the ones who smile at you before stabbing your back." 

Y/N clenched her jaw and took a moment to reflect.

"The real monsters are the ones we call family. The ones we trust with our darkest secrets and fears. Those who should be protecting us are the first to twist a knife in the face of our faults when we least expect it." As she spoke, tears started to form in her eyes.

Y/N expressed gratitude and waited for the producer's debate with his assistants. She wrung her hands nervously, doing a breathing exercise to keep calm.

"Well, we appreciate your performance, but we need to see if you get along with the cast." The producer spoke up, pulling out a piece of paper and holding out his hand. "Memorize these lines and return in about ten minutes.”

 ◦ ◦ ◦

When Y/N returned, someone was already standing in the center of the room. It was a tall man dressed in a sweatshirt ensemble, his face was tilted as he held the script in his hands. 

"Ready, Y/LN?" The man turned around in response to the producer's question.

Y/N gasped as she realized that the person she would be acting with was  Michael B. fucking Jordan. She brought her hand to her mouth to pull herself together, nodding her head for them to begin.

"You can't believe what they say; it's all just lies. They want to play with your mind, manipulate you so you won't be able to escape their sick game." Michael stated incisively.

"It's funny because they said the same thing about you." Y/N replied while focusing on his eyes. "Why should I believe you are telling the truth?"

"I’d never lie to you." When she turned away, he assured her.

“Well, it seems that they were right. You cannot prove your point.” Y/N said as she started to leave.

Michael held her arm, pulling her back into place and lessening the previous distance.

"And how did they prove it to you? What was the excuse, huh? that they are your family?"

Y/N anxiously bit her lip.

"I can't force you to believe what I say; that is your own choice to decide which course you will take.” Michael spoke while resting his hand on her chest's left side.

While struggling to hold his eyes, Y/N gasped, her heart beating and her cheeks flushed. 

"Your heart will tell you what to do; follow your instincts, and if it decides to go beside me,” He held her chin with his other hand. “I'll be waiting for you."

The intensity of his words gave Y/N shivers, and she had to use all her self-control to keep from fainting in his arms.

“How can I tell if I'm making the right decision? “ As his palm touched her cheek, Y/N asked while tightly closing her eyes.

"You can't, but you've to believe in yourself." Her eyes opened as Michael ended the scene;  they stared at each other for a few seconds before the producer exclaimed ‘cut’.

"Congratulations, then! You have the part. You’ll get an email with the information in two to three days.” After standing up to greet her, the producer spoke.

“Oh my goodness, thank you.” Y/N cheered enthusiastically. “Thank you so much, I won't disappoint." 

The producer simply nodded his head in agreement and left. Y/N shouted enthusiastically while using a few brazilian swear words to express her happiness.

“I don't know what you said, but I hope it was cheerful.” Michael B. Jordan commented behind her, causing her to leap forward. “Oh my bad. I didn't mean to scare you."

"That's okay. I had my head in the clouds. It’s just hard to believe that this is actually happening.” Y/N admitted while grinning.

"Try to believe it; you did a great job and deserved that role." With a hand on her shoulder, Michael reassured her. "Catch you at the recording.”

Y/N shook her head, too stunned to speak. When she confirmed that she was the only one in the room, she whispered a hushed ‘porra’.

Nimona appreciation post (Part 1 of I don't even know how many there will be)

Sooo, I'm rewatching Nimona for probably the 100th time now and I just need to fangirl/rant a bit to someone but as I don't have friends who liked the movie as much as me, I'm gonna write a little (or more like long) post about the first movie that touched my heart like this since forever. This is mostly going to be about details and stuff that just got to me and probably not in the order you see it in the movie (I'm gonna try but it's not gonna be 100% correct), so please bear with me. Pic for attention btw lol I did read the comic but only after watching the movie and ngl I like the movie better, maybe I wouldv'e liked it better if I read it when it came out/I was younger Also have a lil spoiler warning, just in case.

the beginning with Nimona narrating Gloreth's myth is nice and I really like the style.

loving the eyes of the 'monster' when she says "because the monsters are always out there"

"The Knight to knight"- Theme is sooo good and I looove that there is a bit of Ballisters Theme in it too

the music as a whole for the movie was soooo goood, Christophe Beck didn't nee to go that hard, but he did and I'm really thankful for that

the only line of the movie I wanted to hear in the dub of my first language/mother tongue gets delivered so good. Btw I watched the movie exclusively in english (eng dub and sub), just changed the dub for that one line but damn the amount of laughing I did after the delivery of "And tonight's the night we knight the knights!" in the german dub made my stomach hurt

the establishment of Bal as our main hero is so nice, I'm already proud of his accomplishments even tho we didn't really got to know him until now

I still think that maybe Bal is a secret child of the queen, look at them together when he was a child, you can't tell me otherwise, that head canon lives rent-free in my head

the introduction of Ambrosius is also good, you immediatly think he is some kind of Jock/Douche/Bully with all that Sportdrink-Ad, his "Hi", the sparkling Tooth-thingy, the "Woo!" and taking a photo-thing

the VA of the "It's not what Gloreth wanted"-Girl did such a good job ngl

the shot of Bal alone on that Balcony (?) watching the reporter ask if they will accept him even tho he might not be right and hearing the people boo kinda hit me a bit to hard for the fact that that problem for me is just in my head and not something I have a problem with in the society I'm in

Ambrosius jokingly asking that question and being a goofy guy surprised my the first time around and it's just cute to see, I guess

their eyes and smiles and stuff in the first few seconds you see them together just immediatly made me ship them

Bals little smile when Amb says he's gonna be a night is too precious

you won't believe how I screamed at the "They're gonna love you, like I do."-Scene and I still am in love with that scene, it gives me such a warm feeling

just telling you now, I don't know how to describe it but I'm kind of in love with their love, all the little things you notice when you really look at them interacting and stuff

also loving how Bal just leans his whole body with head on Ambs shoulder <3 it's as if he's made to be there

the heart eyes when Amb helped Bal with his armour

also funny how different their armour is: Amb has gold armour cause Gloreth probably; Bal has black armour which looks older, heavier, clunkier if you will that just shows how much more he had to work for the position he's in; Todd has silver/iron armour like the rest of the knights but it looks a bit shinier in my eyes, probably cause he's a bit of an attention seeker

Loving Ambs whole reactions when Todd messes with Bal, the twisting of his eyes when Todd first comes in to contact with Bal, the immediate angry eyes, him glancing at Todds Arm/Hand on Bals shoulder, him tensing up a few times while Tod talks, you can visibly see him breath btw (the animation team did nopt mess around), how he catches Bal as if it's nothing, his eyes going big and him getting visibly madder when Todd touches Bals face/chin and his absolutely ready-to-throw-down-body language

Same scene just Bal: he's a bit confused first, then exchanging glances with Amb, him looking a bit angry when Todd fist bumps his armour, his short glance forward when Todd just stops mid sentence, his "I knew it, he's still a lil d*ck"-look, also interesting how his eyes always stay on Todds eyes even tho Todd is very jumpy in this scene, his lil side glance to Amb when Todd shouts: "Hey, everybody" knowing how ready Amb is to deck that idiot straight in the face, also him holding Amb back and shaking his head a bit

the nervous Squire who should've just manne up a bit dang it

Bal immediatly noticing something is wrong with his sword and being distracted by the Squire

Todd in the background with his "Smack that hard. Slap it!"

my hate for the director grows everytime I hear her saying "Today is the day the kingdom will see you for who you really are." (but great foreshadowing that she's the big evil)

Amb being the only one who just says "Director" instead of some form of thank you just shows to me that he prob had a bit of privilege even among the other knights

Bal probably would've been everyones favourite student/knight if he would've been a noble

Bal riding out in the arena is me at every event, especially if there are more than like 3 people looking at me lol

Ambs lil wink to Bal and Bals lil laugh

those proud eyes that are totally in love

Sir Nectar-of-the-gods good-in-bed lol

doesn't matter what anyone says: Boldheart fits this character way more than Blackheart (the latter fits the comic version, but Boldheart is so much better for movie!Bal in my opinion)

Bal looking for Amb while getting on the stage and both of their smiles/grins are so precious

the queens little guesture when he says that anyone who wants to hold the sword could do so i kinda cute and he seems like a good leader who probably was working hard to get everyone to be equal

the little girl who stands up while the queen speaks is the one who Bal mitake for Nimona at the end, isn't she? Or do I imagine that?

the queen is 100% proud of Bal and who wouldn't?

the pause before the people start to cheer… Bals reaction as if he was sure that only this reaction wass possible makes me so sad

Ambrosius cheering and being so proud is adorable

Bal looking around and his breathing… just as if a heavy weight fell from his shoulders

now to Bals sword: first it looks hella cool, second I love that G (probably for Gloreth or Goldenloin, I guess) that got scratched an is now a B, third the scratches are kinda green on this sword while the ones on the original sword are more golden in my opinion

Bals unbelieving look when the laser hits the queen

Ambrosiu' paniced look and how he chop off Bals arm (instead of just disarming or something) says everything about how that society is (instead of trying to confront a problem just destroy it at the roots)

after the sword shatters Amb already ha let go of his sword and he looks like he can't believe what he did

Bals confused/ begging for understanding lookjust breaks my heart here

I find it kinda funny that in the subs a man shouts "Arret him! He kille the queen!" when that "man" ounds so much like Todd

Nimonas introduction is also spot on, I alreay loved her in the first frame

And know I wanna rewatch Kipo

Loving how she says "He's perfect." after the person on the news say "He's a monster."

Bal is such a badass for building his own arm and stuff, I really don't wanna go to the psychological and physically trauma he ha to have gone through/still going through until and at that moment

Bal basically is such a competent person until he thinks/lookss at Ambrosius, then it's almost as if he has just one braincell

I like the lyrics the moment he turn the radio off, I mean: "Red lights flash so we run and we hide" and he probably thinks that the knocks are police/knights

Bal just being competent and catching the bucket so it doesn't make more noise

also just for the whole movie: the little sounds his arm makes are awesome and I really like themBal just being competent and catching the bucket so it doesn't make more noise

also just for the whole movie: the little sounds his arm makes are awesome and I really like them

that change of POV when he opens the door.. now I wanna have a first person game with that story

That's it for the first part, gonna update in a few days I think

Fifteen Days of Disney Magic - Number 8

Welcome to Fifteen Days of Disney Magic! In honor of the company’s 100th Anniversary, I am counting down my Top 15 Favorite Movies from Walt Disney Animation Studios! We're now halfway through the countdown! Today’s entry proves the quote, “The past is never dead. It isn’t even past.” Number 8 is…The Lion King.

If I had to make a few guesses, I’d say the most unorthodox things about my countdown would be the following: one, putting “Fun & Fancy Free,” of all films, in my Top 15. Two, only including one modern era Disney film in the ranks, and we’ll get to that one eventually, don’t worry. Three, not including “Beauty and the Beast” in my Top 10…and four, making “The Lion King” ONLY 8th place. Yes, I am aware that I am a blasphemous heathen who deserves to be hit with a stick. So sue me. Once again, I must stress, do not take the lower placement of “The Lion King” to mean I dislike the film. Because, obviously, I do not. I think the movie is one of the most epic features Disney has ever put out, and it’s not a surprise that so many people name it as one of their top five favorite Disney movies, or even their absolute favorite. It was one of the most successful features of its time, and for good reason. Combining elements of Shakespeare with earlier animated works, including the anime “Kimba the White Lion” and Disney’s own “Bambi,” and a lot of its own original material, “Lion King” was and still is a unique movie in the Disney canon. In some ways, I would argue it’s a little more adult than many other Disney films, although it still has plenty of elements that can appeal to children, or even to one’s inner child.

There are many things that make this film as “big” as it is. The visuals are sweeping and grand; even the most minor shots always seem to have a lot of punch to them. It takes great advantage of the colors and visual motifs of its natural African setting to create some of the most gorgeous images you’ll find in any animated movie. Practically every frame of this film, if you were to halt it in place, could make a perfectly composed picture; almost something you would want to hang up on your wall. From childhood innocence to the bitterness of adulthood, and everything in-between, it patterns the emotional and physical journeys of Simba beautifully. Hans Zimmer’s score is equally powerful; I feel this actually may be one of his most underrated soundtracks, since when most people think of his name, they probably think of his work with Christopher Nolan, or on franchises like “Pirates of the Caribbean,” and when most people think of music in the Lion King, they tend to think of the songs. And while the songs are great – REALLY great – I think that Zimmer’s score is equally applause-worthy, as it works with the imagery (and the splendid voice cast) to paint every character and scene expertly. However, when I rewatched the film, what struck me most was the overall message of the story. This is where I think it’s most adult elements show: not in the death of Mufasa, or the family struggles, but in its ultimate and most prominent theme. The film is ultimately about one person learning to overcome his own perceived past mistakes, and bring justice and truth to a world filled with lies. We have all made mistakes or wished to correct unjust situations, and I think that theme is just as powerful today as it ever was. For me, it is perhaps especially poignant; I have, more and more frequently, found myself dealing with old wounds and not-so-forgotten errors, and wishing I could find a way to correct all those terrible things I did or said. So I can relate to someone like Simba in a way that’s different from many other characters Disney has created. As far as its competition with “Aladdin,” "Peter Pan," and “Beauty and the Beast” can be concerned, Lion King ranks high on all counts. Using the criteria I named in my previous two entries on the countdown: Lion King certainly has a lot of nostalgic value for me, and I do tend to refer to it more than “Beauty and the Beast” in everyday situations. I’d say it and Aladdin are pretty evenly tied there. I also have a close connection to it in writing, since my commission work has led to me writing A LOT of stories set in the universe of this film and its later spin-offs. And while there aren’t AS many parts I’d like to play in the story, in terms of a stage version, the chance to be in it, or even to just SEE it, onstage would be absolutely fantastic beyond belief – something I’d look forward to more than either of the other two films it was competing with. Therefore, it tops them both…but not the other films yet to come. I'm going to be honest, before I close this out: this film actually rose in the ranks by a grand margin. Just as I fully expected to put Peter Pan at the top of the four-part stretch when I went in, I actually expected to put Lion King at either 9th or 10th place. But upon returning to it, and reflecting on everything it means to me and all its done for me, I realized just how special this film truly was. It's not enough to break it into the Top 7...but I think when you see what those seven films are, you'll understand that being 8th place is far from an insult to this film's colossal credit. The countdown continues tomorrow with my 7th Favorite Disney Movie! HINT: An Underrated Mouse-terpiece.

[talas-first-lady]

legends, zidget (1&2), gideon.

001 | Send me a fandom and I will tell you my:

Favorite character: Zari (both but 1.0 has a slight edge)

Least Favorite character: Snart. He's legit abusive to Mick and I don't understand why people like him. We have superior sarcastic assholes on this show if you need.

5 Favorite ships (canon or non-canon): Zarlie 1.0, Zarlie 2.0, Spoonstra, Avalance, Zava

Character I find most attractive: Either Maisie character. Charlie's confidence is very sexy, but Amaya's style is more to my taste.

Character I would marry: Zari Tomaz. We will build ourselves a little house out of donuts and sarcasm and live there forever.

Character I would be best friends with: I'm taking this as character I would actually be best friends with, not character I wish I was cool enough to be best friends with. So I'm going with Mona. We're both DC-based dorks who fangirl and write stories.

a random thought: I have 2 Stardew Valley games going. In the first, I am Zari and wear a red shirt and overalls and have a dog named Beebo. In the second, I am Gidget and have a cat named Zari and I am going to name all of my chickens after the Legends, starting with "Chick Rory."

An unpopular opinion: I like Nate significantly more than I like Behrad.

My Canon OTP: Avalance (although that's kind of the only option, so I feel like that's not saying much)

My Non-canon OTP: Zarlie 1.0

Most Badass Character: I feel like Sara is the correct answer, but I'm going to say Astra.

Most Epic Villain: The Fates were pretty epic, although Damien Darhk gets points for showmanship.

Pairing I am not a fan of: Zari/John

Character I feel the writers screwed up (in one way or another): I genuinely liked John once, and then they had him gaslight and abuse Zari, Astra, and Spooner. Now I find it very hard to enjoy him even when I rewatch S4.

Favourite Friendship: Spooner and Astra

Character I most identify with: Probably Ava, because I too am gay and filled with anxiety.

Character I wish I could be: Lita, because she has the perfect balance between living a normal life and occasionally getting roped into the shenanigans.

002 | Send me a ship and I will tell you:

When I started shipping them: It didn't really start until we found out about getting human Gideon in season 7 (see next bullet for details). But I'd say that the relationship between Gideon and Zari 1.0 became really interesting starting with Here I Go Again. With Zari 2.0, it was probably the emphasis on Zari in the 100th episode that did it.

My thoughts: Gideon has especially close, romantically-coded relationships with her first 2 caretakers (Rip & Jax), so it seems natural to me that she'd also have a similar closeness with Zari 1.0 & Behrad. She and 1.0 have a fantastic enemies to friends to lovers arc set up. As for 2.0, I was talking about how Gideon and Behrad would be a useful couple as far as keeping Behrad from dating Astra when I realized that Zari also happens to be single and was going to be SO excited to get her hands on human Gidget.

What makes me happy about them: Just the way Zari 1.0 was looking at Gideon in 7x05 when she was filling them in on what she'd been up to. There's so much warmth between them and it's grown from a place of anger and mistrust and that's beautiful. Also every single time Zari 2.0 says Gidget.

What makes me sad about them: They hardly ever got to interact on screen.

Things done in fanfic that annoys me: When other people don't write Zidget so I have to do it, I guess.

Things I look for in fanfic: Really good characterization of Gideon.

My wishlist: I still just want Zari 2.0 to give Gideon a makeover.

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: Zari 1.0/Nate and Gideon/Gary are acceptable if not ideal. Zari 2.0 is a lot harder. Obviously Charlie coming back for either Zari would be fantastic. I did like Eddie's dynamic with Zari and I think I could have supported that relationship if it happened.

My happily ever after for them: If I knew that, I'd be able to finish my stupid fanfic.

003 | Give me a character & I will tell you:

How I feel about this character: BABY. My feelings about original version Gideon are a little mixed because she did some highly questionable things, but ever since she became human she has been a delight.

Any/all the people I ship romantically with this character: Zari 1.0, Zari 2.0, Maude, Gary. Jax and Behrad would be acceptable.

My favorite non-romantic relationship for this character: Esperastreon familyyyyy.

My unpopular opinion about this character: I am not upset that she had sex despite being a brand new human. I am a little upset that it didn't happen with a partner of my choosing.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: I NEEDED TO SEE THE MOMENT ZARI 2.0 SAW GIDGET FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME

Favorite friendship for this character: Astra & Spooner again.

My crossover ship: I don't think this would work romantically at all, but I would love to put Gideon and the Android from Dark Matter in the same room and see what happened.

Broken arrow

so, this is my latest story, is a s1 young justice au. i rewatched s1 after SO many years (like, since s2 came out) mainly because I was really disapinted with s3, and I wrote this. I hope you enjoy it!

What if Roy was found out to be a clone before the end of season 1?

The Justice League had decided on their new members; the Atom, Dr Fate, Plasticman, Icon and his partner Rocket who would be joining other teenagers and Red Arrow aka Roy Harper, green arrow's first sidekick

"Well, Roy's going to be pleased," Green Arrow said, slightly celebrating, hoping that this would mend their relationship

"yes, Roy has managed to impress us with his vast skills in taking on the Shadows," Batman said "Green Arrow will be the one to inform him"

"I'll do my best, but he does have a habit of disappearing when he wants to, probably learnt it from Robin" the League laughed and went on their way, with Green Arrow disappearing in the Zeta tube to find his former sidekick and tell him the good news.

That had been 2 hrs. ago, and Roy was still standing frozen in his apartment and wouldn't move, not even to blink

"what happened?" Batman asked for what seemed like the 100th time since he arrived

"I told you, I came to his apartment and tell him the good news, he looked like he was in the middle of doing a weekly inspection of his arrows, I always say: a broken arrow is a useless arrow, I said that to him for old times sake, when he suddenly froze!"

"hmmm," Batman frowned even more before standing up and facing Red Arrow "who are you?"

"I am CADMUS clone #38919081, my mission is to infiltrate the Justice League and bring them under the control of Vandal Savage" Roy responded in a robotic tone, Green Arrow's eyes widened under his mask while Batman's narrowed

"a-a clone?" Green Arrow stuttered out "like corner?"

"It appears so," Batman said, keeping his voice neutral

"But how? When?"

"I'm guessing when Speedy was sent to investigate the suspicious activity from Lexcorp, they must have grabbed him and cloned him. After that, they left a fake trail for you to follow to rescue this Roy harper and train him, then once he was 'ready' his programming kicked in and drove him to become League worthy"

"But...why is he frozen?"

"I'm guessing it must be a control of some kind, like a pause button. I'm guessing the Shadows use this to implant new instructions and gather inside information on the League. They must have told him to plant in our heads that someone is a mole, not knowing that he was the mole himself"

"they wanted to drive the team apart!" Green Arrow realised "they knew that if one of them was a mole, they would drift apart and then the kids would be out of the way!"

"most likely" Batman frowned, slightly angry at himself, he prided himself at being the world's greatest detective, but he was only human.

"oh god! This is all my fault! I never should have sent him alone" Green Arrow moaned and rubbed his face, Batman walked to him and placed a hand on his shoulder

"no," the dark said in a surprisingly gentle voice "it was not your fault, this Roy was obviously programmed to act and behave just like the real Roy, CADMUS most likely gave him all the memories and characteristics of the real Roy, no one could tell the difference. Not even me"

"We should tell the kids" by kids, Green Arrow meant Robin, Kid Flash and Aqualad as they were the closest to Roy

"no. The team must not know, we will keep this between the two of us. The Shadows are most likely waiting for the right time to carry out this plan, we will wait. Until then..." Batman turned and faced the clone "how will Vandal Savage gain control of the justice league?"

###

A few weeks later, Red Arrow, Icon, Plasticman, Dr Fate and the Atom gained their League Membership and joined the team, the Justice League went back inside the Hall of Justice to celebrate but found that it was empty

"where are the kids?" Wonder Woman asked as Batman pulled up the computer

"gone" he frowned at the coordinates of a plane crash that Cheshire had caught, behind them, Red Arrow remained natural as he stared at the screen.

Most of the Justice League went to the Watchtower to show their new members around, while Batman, Red Tornado, Black Canary and Icon went to the cave to wait for the kids.

After learning that the team had managed to get hold of the biotech that would later be used to gain control of the league, Batman congratulated them and gave them a rare smile, the rest of the team looked happy as Icon examined them, upon confessing that even he was unfamiliar with the tech, Batman took the case with him to the tower where the rest of his team were waiting. Red Arrow had disappeared with Green Arrow so Batman discreetly informed the leaguers about what was to transpire, he convinced them to play along until Vandal Savage was in the Watchtower. Thanks to the information that Red Arrow had supplied, he was able to make a cure and injected them all into the league so they would not be affected.

Later, Batman secluded himself from the others and continued to analyse the strange tech, so that they could perhaps use it someday, but without the victim being completely under control when Red Arrow entered the room, he mentally braced himself as he felt Red Arrow's hand touch his neck and a cold piece of metal enter his skin, but thanks to the cure, he remained unaffected and was able to maintain control. He then turned around and walked to the main part of the tower where the rest of the team was waiting and walked to the zeta tubes to allow Vandal Savage to enter the Watchtower. Upon entering, Batman and the rest of the league made sure to bow as Red Arrow shook his head as his mind cleared, glancing around he saw that Vandal Savage was in front of him and the rest of the League bowing to him.

"I...I was the mole?" Red Arrow said in shock

"yes," Vandal Savage said as he walked past and stared at the earth, behind him he could hear the voice of the Zeta tube accounting Red Arrow leaving "go after him" he ordered as he turned around, he frowned when he realised that none of his minions made a move, "I said, go after him! Listen to me!"

"oh, we're listening alright," Batman said as he stood up and faced him, the rest of the leaguers following "but not to you" Vandal Savage took a step back in shock, his plan, had failed? How? "easy" Vandal Savage glanced at Batman, had he said those words out loud?

"yes, you did. As for how your plan failed, well. For once, it was an accident"

"When I went to tell Roy that he was now in the league" Green Arrow stated, not bothering to hide his former sidekick's identity since Savage probably already knew "he was in the middle of maintaining his arrows, so I said one of my favourite sayings; a broken arrow is a useless arrow and that..."

"triggered his subconscious programming to freeze and tell you what you wanted" Vandal ground out

"that's right, upon learning that he was the mole I asked him for every bit of information about your plan and managed to make a cure, so we would be unaffected by your little toys" Batman finished

Vandal Savage growled and used the ring around his finger to release the demon boy Klarion who immediately blasted magic at the league, but was quickly stopped by Dr Fate and trapped his familiar Teekl in a cage, meanwhile Wonder Woman used her lasso of truth to capture Savage before he could do anything else.

"it's over" Wonder Woman growled

"don't be so sure, eventually, the world will see the Light" Vandal Savage grinned as an inhibitor collar was placed on him

"so, what should we do with them?" Flash asked

"I will take care of the demon boy," Dr Fate said and used his magic to get rid of Teekl making Klarion disappear

"Okay...but what should we do about savage?" Green Lantern (Hal Jordon) asked "if we lock him up, someone will break him out eventually"

"true, for now, he will stay at the Belle Reve Penitentiary in a crystalline prison cell"

"We should go find Roy," Green Arrow said, worried for his sidekick and adoptive kid

"NO, let the others find Red Arrow. To him, we are still under Vandal Savage's control and are looking to kill him. WE will search CADMUS for the real Roy while the others find red arrow" Batman said in a voice that said 'no arguments', Green arrow sighed, but agreed. Knowing that (as usual) Batman was right, he followed batman into the zeta tube along with Red Tornado and Black Canary, Wonder Woman, Flash, Superman, Green Lantern (Hal) and Aquaman escorted Vandal Savage to the Belle Reve Penitentiary, the rest stayed behind to monitor the tower.

####

To say that the team took the news lightly was an understatement, there had been a lot of yelling and denial, mostly from Robin, Kid Flash and Aqualad, Conner was surprised and was grateful that he had been rescued before it was too late, Miss Martian was upset as she could have found that information out while they were battling the shadows and Artemis was...unreadable.

"The league is now escorting Vandal Savage to the Belle Reve Penitentiary and searching CADMUS to find the real Roy, while we are doing that, you will need to find Red Arrow, he might listen to you more than us"

"understood Batman," Aqualad said, and the others agreed with him

"uhh, I have something to say," Superboy said, rubbing the back of his head "there's another Superman clone in CADMUS

"and how do you know of this?" Batman questioned, squinting under his mask

"Lex Luthor contacted me" Superboy sighed and told out his story, about how Lex was his half-father and that other clone was pure Kryptonian and was unstable, so he was to remain frozen until he could be controlled "if it's possible, could you also rescue him? I don't want him to suffer any more than he already has, or worse, turned into a weapon"

Batman stared at him for a long time before sighing "very well" he said before leaving through the zeta tube

"don't worry, we'll find the real Roy and bring him home" Black Canary reassured them before following Batman and Red Tornado, Green Arrow hesitated

"Is everything alright?" Artemis asked her mentor

"I'm not sure, I thought I had the real Roy, but it turns out he was a fake. I left the real Roy all alone. I never should have let him go on that mission alone" Green Arrow sighed

"it's not your fault Ollie," Robin said and placed a calming hand on Green Arrow's shoulder "you had no choice, Roy had just started being your partner, it was too dangerous for Roy to fight Merlyn"

"yeah, the shadows had us all tricked" Fid Flash added "if anything, it should have been us to notice something was wrong"

"you will find the real Roy Harper" Aqualad reassured and Green Arrow sighed

"thanks, who knows? If we're lucky, we can be done with our missions before the New Year?" Green Arrow said, with a forced smile, but no one commented on it and wished him luck as he left, the teens then turned to each other

"let's find our friend," Aqualad said determinedly and the team made their way to the bioship.

It didn't take long to find him, he was hiding out in an apartment that was rundown, the team agreed that Aqualad was the best person to talk to Roy as they were best friends, and that's probably why Roy told Aqualad that there was a mole in the first place.

They made the right choice, Aqualad was able to convince Roy that the League was alright and were currently looking for the real speedy, and to come back with them so miss martian could remove any programming left by CADMUS so he would not be controlled by them anymore. Along the way, Roy told them his story, how he was a 'sleeper agent', how he carried out his orders subconsciously, how he was ordered to focus on Miss Martain, Artemis and Superboy. They tried to tell him it was not his fault, but he refused to believe them, harbouring all kinds of guilt they couldn't imagine.

"Batman to team, come in" Bateman's voice suddenly rang through the communicators

"we read you Batman" Aqualad responded and Batman's picture appeared

"you managed to find Red Arrow, good job"

"How was your mission?" Robin asked

"we managed to find both the real Roy and the other superboy clone, although CADMUS gave him the name 'Match', they were both frozen, we admitted Roy into the medical wing and leaving the Match frozen until you get back. Manhunter says he might need Miss Martian's help getting rid of whatever driving him to be unstable"

"acknowledged Batman, ETA 20 minutes," Miss Martain said

"good. Over and out" Batman's image disappeared, but Red Arrow's tension didn't

"relax, the League aren't infected. They're not after you" Robin tried to calm his friend down

"its not just them, I'm nervous to meet the real...Roy. I'm not sure how he'll react, that he's been frozen for 3 years and that another...him has been living his life"

"look, Roy..."

"DON'T CALL ME ROY!" Red Arrow snapped at Kid Flash who held his hands up in surrender "sorry, it's just that...I don't deserve to be called that." he sighed "I'm not the real Roy harper. Just a copy, that's not my name, it's just a stolen identity"

"then what do you want to be called?" Robin asked

"I'm...I'm not sure"

"you'll pick a new name when the time is right, but to us, it doesn't matter what you are or what you are called. all that matters is that you are our friend" Aqualad stated, Red Arrow didn't answer and continued to stare straight ahead and the rest of the trip was silent.

20 mins later, they finally reached the cave and met the rest of the justice league, with Red Arrow lingering behind as the others reunited with their mentors. Green Arrow walked over to Red Arrow who tensed up as he was pulled into a hug, eventually, he relaxed and sunk into his mentor's embrace and let lose the emotions he had been holding back. Anger, confusion, fear. They all came out, Green Arrow didn't say a word, he just held on tight.

"I'm sorry" Red Arrow whispered, but Green Arrow just shushed him and whispered reassurances

"so, can we go see Roy? The real one?" Kid Flash asked from Artemis's side where she was watching the scene

"yes, but it's better if Green Arrow and Red Arrow were there to explain it to him first, it is a bit overwhelming," Batman said

On the other side of the cave, superman was talking to superboy

"so, where's Match?" Superboy asked superman

"at the moment he's Manhunter, waiting for Miss Martain to help him he said that she's better at the mind-stuff than she is"

"oh, ok."

"so, I hear you've taken up a name?"

"yeah, Conner Kent"

"huh, my real name is Clark Kent"

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to..."

"No, it's fine. it...fits" Superman gave his clone a smile which was returned "look, I'm sorry with the way I treated you, usually I give people a chance before I judge them, but I could help but be cautious about you. I guess I was worried that you would...turn bad." Superman rubbed the back of his head in guilt as Superboy's head shot up "I know, I know. But I couldn't help but be cautious. Uou were unstable and there was no telling what you could do. I now see that I was wrong and hope you can forgive me"

"I guess I have to apologise to you too. I treated you, all of you badly. All I could see from you was this...giant shadow you cast over me, like...I'm you, but not you at the same time. If that makes sense"

"Yeah, it kinda does" Superman confessed and both of them stared at each other "you know, I'm visiting my parents over the weekend for the New Year, you're welcome to join me if you want"

"i...I would like that. Thanks" Superboy smiled "but only after we fix Match"

"of course"

Both Clark's then joined the rest of their respective teams as the computer announced that it was now January 1st, Robin, Superboy, Kid Flash and Aqualad all managed to score a kiss as Red Arrow and Green Arrow disappeared into the infirmary to wake for the real Roy to wake up.

"I think my name should be Will. I don't want to be 'Roy'" Red Arrow said to his mentor

"that's fine, but why Will?" Green Arrow asked and took off his mask, becoming Oliver Queen

"I met a young boy named Will. He was one of the few kids that the Shadows had captured. He was one of the bravest kids I ever met, he insisted I rescued the other kids first as he was the oldest one there, I couldn't save him, so by being Will, it's like...a way to remember him. But I'm still keeping the last name if Roy will let me"

"Will Harper," Oliver said, trying the name out "it fits" he smiled at his former sidekick now college who took off his mask

"Thanks, Ollie" Roy-will whispered as they entered the infirmary where Roy (the real one) was still asleep

"When do you think he'll wake up?"

"not sure, he's been frozen for 3 years, could be a while"

Both archers continued to keep a vigil eye on the sleeping Harper and discussed what had happened over the last year, how far they had both come when a small groan was heard from the bed, they both quickly glanced and saw that Roy's eyes were fluttering before they suddenly shot open, but closed them at the bright light

"wha-what happened?" he asked roughly, coughing at how dry his throat was "where am I?"

"Roy?" Roy glanced over and saw his mentor with tears in his eyes, he must have gotten injured during the mission, but looking closer, he noticed that his mentor had grown a goatee, and he had a few wrinkles, he moved to sit up, but something felt off. Glancing down he felt like throwing up, as below his elbow, the rest of his arm was gone. The only evidence it had been there in the first place was the white bandages.

"wha-what... happened?!" he demanded glaring around Roy and flinched back, as in front of him was a carbon copy of himself, except taller and had more muscle and had less chubby. "Who-who are you?!"

"I'm you...well, more like a clone of you," Will said sighing before launching into his story, how CADMUS grew him, how he took over as speedy, how the other kids had formed their own team, how he betrayed the league and how they [the league] found him

"Woah" Roy muttered, trying to process the information

"I know it's a lot to process" Roy huffed at the understatement from his...clone "but if it makes you feel any better, I changed my name. I didn't feel like I deserve to be called Roy. That's your name"

"...thanks, I guess," Roy said, "so, what do I call you?"

"Will. and if it's alright with you, I would like to keep the last name"

"so...we would be like brothers?" Will gave a small nod and Roy grinned "I would like that. Never had a brother before!"

Will huffed and gave a large grin "I'd like that" both of them shared a laugh and Olliver sat back in his chair to watch them, glad to see that there would be no bad tension between the two.

"hey, guys! Dinner's ready-Roy?-ROY!" Wally cut off as he entered the room with Kaulder and Dick, who were all out of uniform, and to Oliver and Will's surprise, Dick was no longer wearing his sunglasses

"hey, guys!" Roy greeted them, waving his hand "what's going on?"

"Nothing much," Wally said and joined them "so uh...have you decided on a name yet?" Wally asked Will

"Yeah, call me Will" Will answered with an amused smile "Will Harper"

"Will Harper..." Dick said "I like it, Bruce and I can get it legalised if you want"

"thanks. So where are the cool shades?"

"oh, yeah. I took them off. I decided that since the others revealed their secrets, it was only fair that I revealed mine to them" Dick explained with a small smile, he looked more relaxed than usual.

"well, I have to say it's about time," Oliver said,

"How are you feeling Roy?" Kaulder asked Roy

"tired I guess, overwhelmed too" Roy explained with a sigh

"I am glad you are alright," Kaulder said, giving him a warm smile as Will stood up and stretched his legs

"umm, I'm gonna go. give you guys some space," he said quietly and left the room, Oliver let out a small sigh

"Still the same as always," he said fondly "I should probably follow him" he stood up and walked to the door "mind keeping an eye on him?"

"Sure, no problem," Dick said, Oliver, nodded and left the room, softly closing the door behind him

"so...you guys formed your own team? What was that like?" Roy asked the teens

"Pretty awesome," dick said

"so...how did that happen?"

"well, it all started when we got to visit the Hall of Justice..."

While Dick, Wally and Kaulder told Roy their story, down the hall, Megan and Jo'oan used their psychic abilities to dive into Match's head and erase everything that CADMUS did to him, it was a very long and complicated process as a lot of CADMUS programming had been planted into him and they had to remove all of it but had to make sure not to take away everything and leave him as an empty shell.

'CADMUS has done a great deal of harm to him' J'onn said telepathically to Megan

'yes, I just hope we will be able to help him' she replied

The process took many hours, but they eventually managed to get rid of everything CADMUS had done leaving a confused and afraid Match, the Martians decided that Conner would be the best person to first see Match. It took a while, but Conner was able to get through to match and he got a new name Casper, he was still slightly wary around superman, but still agreed to join them to visit his (Clark's) parents.

The rest of the teenagers went home to celebrate the New Year with their families, enjoy a rare moment to relax and think back on the last year, while preparing for what's ahead.

I imagine that since Kid Flash and Robin are best friends because they like to pull pranks and are closer in terms of age, Kaulder and Red Arrow are best friends because they are older and more serious.

I hoped you like the reason why Oliver wasn't with Roy when he investigated the Lex Corp illegal activities, I mean, Oliver would just let Roy go on a mission by himself when he only just became Speedy, so there had to be a reason why he wasn't with him

And I know that Roy seems very different from when he was introduced in s2, but remember this Roy was only frozen for 3 years not 8, so he doesn't blame Oliver for not looking for him as he didn't know. And as for how he treats Will, again, since it was only 3 years, he doesn't hold that much hate towards the two archers.

Season 2 still happened, just differently, since the Justice League never attacked the alien planets, they were never invaded. The Light still exists as Will was never given any information on them or their plans

Sorry, the scene between Superboy and match were so short, this story was mainly about Red Arrow. I wonder if we'll see Match again, we last saw him still frozen and belonging to CADMUS, why hasn't he been rescued yet?

ﾐ☆ genre: punch inspired!au, video game au!, superhero au!

ﾐ☆ word count: 7k

ﾐ☆ warnings: mentions of greatest fears and nightmares, fighting, death, light smut but nothing too vivid, and sm ceo and dispatch make an appearance ew i know

ﾐ☆ author’s note: ah my first nct 127 headcanon and second creation on this site! yes i know it’s been a long time coming since punch dropped but ever since i saw the music video, this idea popped into my head. i heard of other nctzens talking about this aesthetic when mentioning the mv, but hopefully you like my take on it! please enjoy and look forward to more writing from me in the future! thank you so much! ps this is not proof read yikes sorry

Velvet clouds of psychedelic purple with the scattered rays of sunset hues made an unnatural background for the logo’s electric lettering with lightning strokes cracking the static screen in your stuffy apartment. Outside was a different matter. A thunderstorm jolted the placid crimson sky to a violet that only nature could create, although the graphic designers of PUNCH: NCT 127 came close. It was rather befitting for the stark opposition of the hurricane raging outside to the retro sparking aesthetic that you’ve witnessed for the ninth time, and it was the most pivotal. It was as if the thunder was the applause, the lightning rallying behind you, the pelting of the raindrops reverberating the hammering of your heart. Almost victorious in a way, the non-player hero that lurked in the background of the other eight paths taken would finally be the alternate hero to your player. He was a prize in the reverie that you constructed solely from his brief bio to the artificial mannerisms and quotes that he generated in the story lines which enabled you to project your fantasy on mundane men. The comparison was cruel, fictional characters were even crueler. Nimble fingers and darting eyes fell into a comfortable routine, familiar with the introduction story, it was a race between the controller’s buttons and the spiteful lightning that would sever the power.

Welcome to the NCT 127 Division, Agent L/N. I am Lee Soo-Man, the Director of the SM Agency and your guide for your latest mission: THE FINAL ROUND. On behalf of the whole SM community, we apologize for the abrupt summoning, but your presence and skills are crucial if we are going to defeat the DISPATCH terrorist. For too long, the person that cowers behind the mask that claims itself DISPATCH has tormented South Korea for too long, and only you can stop them. It cannot be done alone though, if you so choose to take on this responsibility, I will assign one of the nine superheroes of your picking to share this task. Do you accept it?

The selection of your partner is based on compatibility and trust, I implore you to consider wisely until you make a final decision. The designated superhero of your liking will be under one of two teams, FUTURE OR DREAMER. Both equally beneficial, but the bonds of loyalty run deep between the members, you have to determine which one of their morals you value more. Heed my warning though, with the right set of skills and talent,  you and your partner will be unstoppable but tread lightly your connection with him. After all, you are his only weakness. Which team and hero will you choose?

CLICK [TEAM FUTURE]

CLICK [TEAM DREAMER] 

You now have the option to choose your hero.

Before your perplexed mind could comprehend the change of dialogue, a streak of lightning had pierced the stillness of the undisturbed bedroom and released the tempest that was once contained to reality. With the abundance of consuming darkness, shards of glass pricking your paling skin, and tree branches pounding for entry--your white knuckles and twitching eyes fathomed the only connection you had with actuality; a plastic controller and the flickering avatar of your destined hero you chose only seconds before. Your heart had been thumping, not from the anticipation of a new adventure, no, it was pure fear that jolted your numbed muscles to sprint to sanctuary. The thunderstorm mocked your failed attempt at fleeing as another surge of electricity enveloped the room in white and sparks rippled at your ankles as you ran away but the tethering currents from the screen wrenched you back.

SOUL TRANSFUSION NOW COMPLETE_

Team Future

Taeil

Power: Pyrokinesis

A very vocal opponent when he’s on the battlefield, you might be on the other side of the area but you can always figure out where he is located by listening to his strange grunt/growl combos, enemies usually have to process the inhuman sound that came out of a small man but you just roll your eyes and toothy grin grows as you run to him for back up

Says “let’s get it!” any chance he gets, always attempts to make it your team chant before going on a mission but everyone votes no, even you

Loves to wear long sleeves as a staple piece of clothing despite his already burning temperature, he claims it eases him as if it were security blanket, and he enjoys when you tell him he looks adorable with his sleeved paws

During winter though, he always has to stock up on sweaters because you are always stealing them, whether it’s the feeling of his residual heat ghosting over your skin or look of complete adoration glazing over his eyes as he devours that look of yours, it’s a great excuse to wear one

If you had to assign ‘roles’ in the relationship, you would so be a top, he’s the most chill boy out there as you throw tantrums or squeal out of pure joy when you are finally promoted, it’s either purring hums out of his mouth or a silly smile as he gazes at you 

Physical affection is minimal between you two unless you initiate it, but it’s mostly wrapping his arm around you, it’s in no way conveying that he doesn’t love you, but rather love to him is experiencing moments with you, making memories while watching a funny movie or dancing horribly to a playlist he created

An exception is when you end up falling asleep on the couch as you two watch a movie, he secretly loves to carry you back to bed as he tucks you in and truly soaks in what you mean to him

His hair gradually transitioned to its current red as his powers grew throughout the years and he would always dye it but his genes overpowered any artificial color, not until you said you liked his hair like that, he decided to keep it

King of making you smile especially when you are down, he can’t stand seeing you sad so he insists on becoming a goofball until your sides hurt from laughing so hard

Takes training way too seriously, you always start off competing but by like the 100th crunch you are wiped but he’s still going 

Becomes sulky when his Disney Hades costume doesn’t come out as planned because his fire is red and not blue, but it was the best decision ever when you suggested Ghost Rider for the Halloween party, Taeil never looked better with just a leather jacket covering his bare skin

You finally convinced the clothing department to give you a fireproof uniform because Taeil has really bad aim, and your clothes are rags after a mission

Figured out you had a crush on Zuko when you were younger, so he would rewatch it with you and definitely cosplay Zuko, perhaps even role play with it if it’s something you were into

Having sex with Taeil was searing pain shooting through your thighs, tender love handles, heaving chests and lactic acid seeping through your muscles as he cheered you onto the last lap--it was a workout in itself with a sweltering room that reflected his aroused emotions

Both of you are constantly battling, whether it’s a rap battle or a cooking battle, Taeil is in love with the passionate side of you

Breakfast in bed is a tradition held during the weekends, he says he loves to spoil you but he just loves tasting his own food while you give him compliments on how delicious it is

Taeil is usually saved as a last resort for dangerous group missions, you’ve heard stories of his past battles as if he were legend already, but you’ve only witnessed his true power once by scorching down the enemy in one go, flames clawing his body as the inner glow within him exploded like he was a supernova--someone had to drag you out before the building collapsed on itself from the stifling heat and the roaring fire

You pinch his bouncy cheeks as often as possible just to see him roll his eyes while he fights off the widening smirk that makes his doe eyes curve into crescents, but it’s the blooming crimson of his cheeks that you indulge in, lightly sizzling your fingertips until you can’t take the pain any longer and yelp slips out, but Taeil swiftly swoops in and kisses your fingertips in an apology, it was a good pain though

It’s a normal night for both of you, 2 AM and your blabbering about everything and nothing, and Taeil always ends up the saying the same line to you as he coaxes you to sleep because he knows how grumpy you become in the morning, “I’m grateful we’re together, who would make you a fire if you were stranded on a deserted island? You definitely can’t, so, hmm, I guess it has to be me”

Johnny

Power: Lycanthropy

You’d suspect him to be bear when he morphed with his build and height, but he’s a hulking chestnut brown wolf with gentle eyes

Basically a puppy on steroids always expects a treat and good belly rub after eviscerating all his targets

Has the ability to shift at will, so during winter nights you can find him nestled around you for added warmth

During the colder months, he usually wears knitted sweaters and oversized coats in his human form because it reminds him of his fur, and he claims he likes to keep you warm while he holds you in any form

Creates video tutorials of both of you sparring with each other, lots of constructive criticism and compliments on your ‘form’

Begs you to ride him into a mission just for the sake of it, he can so see you as a badass warrior on their monstrous steed

Johnny’s favorite time of day is during the end when you wind down with him and you tell him every detail of your day despite you two being joined at the hip as partners

Always asks questions out of plain curiosity and simply in love with the sound of your voice, it’s the equivalent of you petting his sweet spot on the back of his ear

Without a doubt, he howls in bed while having sex, he’s always teetering the edge of shifting and even though you repeatedly tell him it’s fine to let go, the splintered wood of the headboard and floating feathers of a slashed pillow is evidence of how much concentration he puts in to keep you safe

Manicures and pedicures on a regular basis in the Suh household got to keep those claws clean

Adamant about not getting a pet dog with you, his excuse is he would get too jealous of another canine but his stance is weakening with your improved puppy dog eyes

Multiple jokes about ‘starting a pack’ with you

While in his wolf form, he can understand human language but he doesn’t have the ability to communicate, so both of you rely on subtle gestures

Naturally has a small smile, always nudges you with his snout, and whenever you make a joke to him, he bears his canines that are frightening to most but to you it’s comforting

Johnny’s greatest fear is if you two are ever in an argument and his anger blinds him to the point of him unconsciously shifting and accidentally harming you

Even clumsier in his wolf form, he doesn’t realize actually how massive he is which makes him a hazard to normal-sized beings

Gets most of his stances and moves from the wolves from the twilight series, he won’t admit but he’s certainly inspired by them

Sexual appetite is at a peak when the full moon comes out, growl central!!

The most treasured item you two have is a portrait of wolf-Johnny on his hind legs, attacking your face with slobbering kisses and you grinning brightly because nothing can compare to the bliss of that snapshot

Taeyong

Power: Superhuman Speed

After every assignment, Taeyong’s personal mission is to dote on you, this usually happens by using a covering or his own jacket and slinging it over your shoulders, if there is grime or blood on it, he lets out soft ‘sorry’ even though you always tell him not to

He knows it’s his job, he understands the need, but that doesn’t mean he is comfortable with the bloody side of it, and so he loves talking to you after incidents, your voice is soothing and it helps him process all the trauma, he says it’s for your sake but you know in these moments you are his crutch and you gladly accept the job

Naturally, a faster walker than you so he always manages to be a few feet ahead of you, but when he sees you fall behind, he holds your hand and  tugs lightly while matching your pace

After enhancing his speed,  he always has flushed cheeks and a glossy sheen across his forehead, so you make it a habit to kiss his forehead, cheeks, and lips to cool him down

It doesn’t work, his heart his pulsating harder than ever and does that exasperated airy laugh as an attempt to stabilize his heightened emotions while walking away so you don’t witness his even redder face

You give him piggyback rides after missions, his energy is basically depleted by then, so a jacket for a piggyback ride seems like a fair deal even though he fights you the whole way but you know he adores being cared for

You were the one to convince him to dye his hair pink in an effort to have an easier time spotting him during assignments and now he’s pink blur racing off to defeat villains

When he lightly peppers kisses on your face, the smacks get louder until he finally lands on your lips and it’s the most exaggerated sloppy sound he can make while he squeezes your cheeks

Weekdays for him are for cooking dinner, and you occasionally join to help him but mostly it’s him feeding you bits asking if everything is seasoned well and by the end, he is cursing because half the dinner is already gone

Type of boyfriend to remember you mentioning something you like and a few days later, he buys it for you or he randomly buys you things that remind him of you and leaves it for you as a surprise

Always doodling on you or leaving you notes with drawings so he can remind you that he loves you or to hydrate

After stressful missions, he just plops on top of you, his nose inhaling your scent as he forces his heart to match your rhythm, it lasts for about twenty minutes or until he can finally recharge

Taeyong’s gym locker in the NeoZone is plastered with couple photos of you two and photos of you modeling or candid while he directed you with his camera

The only way you can convince him to give you ten more pushups or five more pullups is if you bribe him with kisses and it always works

Very sacrificial, it’s one of his main flaws, he’ll get super flustered and annoyed when he sees you in the line of fire, so he’ll ultimately take all the heat and scold you after to put yourself first

His face usually has a cold blank stare to it as he observes his surroundings but once you collide into him and coil your arm around his, he grows this massive grin that only you can create

Never takes advantage of his speed with you, his surroundings are always in a constant race and he’s always anticipating the next move, but with you, your a serene presence washing over him; calming him, grounding him to capture every moment of you so it isn’t a blur but a vivid mural

Definitely tender and sensual in bed, once tried to spice things up by using his speed but he almost broke you, so now he only changes his pace if you request it

With your head on his chest every night, the last thing you hear before you fall asleep is the rapid thumping of his heart; it’s the only lullaby you’ll ever need

Yuta

Power: Supernatural Swordsmanship

Cut his hair with his kodachi and you most definitely needed to clean up the edges

Villains dread combating with Yuta, not just because he’s insane with a sword but he only talks about you and your relationship while fighting as if the opponent will answer his question of whether he should give you a cookie or ice cream cake for your birthday or even both 

Rather than making you feel better when you feel down, he would be your soundboard, a shoulder to cry one, a great pair of ears; patience and multiple ‘mhms’ as you unravel your worries while his fingers swirl on your thigh and he kisses your temple

You two could be on opposite sides of the room but his eyes would always gravitate to you and he would wait until you notice so he could meet your gaze and he would do the dorkiest faces, especially his famous lion rawr aegyo, it makes you realize how good of a father he would be

Goes wild when he sees your body tremble beneath him as the cold metal of the kodachi glides along your skin

The only thing rivaling his love for you is his love for his katana, it’s bond that can never be severed and  it’s a trust that only develops between soulmates, you could never understand but you accept and allow it to be the third partner in the relationship

It shouldn’t be possible for Yuta to look like a prince walking out of an otome game right after a battle, but there he is, glistening skin with swept hair and twinkling eyes as he sheathes his katana across his back as if he’s going to ride his horse in the Sengoku period

It’s usual occurrence to catch him absentmindedly talking to his katana, you wouldn’t be surprised if it could talk back, he can summon it by hand already, that sword and he shares one brain cell but he usually uses it as a mirror

You’re a killer couple, not only with looks and fashion but it’s quite a sight to experience as you shoot a bullet to his katana so it can ricochet at a target eighty feet away

Manages a rigorous training session before you wake up and when he’s done, he ends up collapsing on top with his sticky body as you screech at him to get off

The training facility in the NeoZone is rarely used because Yuta is a big believer in fresh air and beautiful scenery will motivate you more, so your sparring on the edge of cliffs and sprinting along the seaside

Alternates between reading books with you outside in your backyard with a makeshift picnic or both of you cuddled in bed with the open windows and the only source of light is the sun

If you have missions abroad, he convinces the agency to always give both of you one day free so you can act like tourists, nobody can say no to his dashing good looks and he knows it

One year for Christmas, you got him custom made tiny katana earrings and it’s literally the one pair he uses now, at least on his lobe

Yuta isn’t the overbearing type when it comes to jealousy, he shouldn’t have a say in what gender your friends are but when he sees a certain person obviously flirting with you it just takes slight glint of his katana to blind the intruder and they are already scurrying off 

Gets a kick out of playing real-life fruit ninja

Decided to shave a slit in his eyebrow with his katana one spontaneous night, he got out of the bathroom with a huge grin and asked, “does this make me look more badass?”

Your hands always end up somewhere around his stomach, gliding across the lean muscles, squeezing around his hips, twiddling his piercing, you name it, you can’t keep your hands off him

Nakamoto Yuta is a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield, the pang of fear thrills you as you witness his lack of mercy and fiery anger at injustice as he slaughters anyone that stands before him, but that wicked glint in his eye softens just for you and then you see the scrawling of your name engraved on the hilt of the katana, and you know you are the only one that knows the true Yuta and you feel so blessed

Doyoung

Power: Precognition 

You beg him every possible waking minute for him to allow you to do his makeup if only to contour his insanely sharp cheekbones, he finally relents but he has a scowl on his face the whole time

You’ve become quite a baker with Doyoung but he always has to guide you so his arms snake around your waist as an excuse yet he acts completely innocent when he knows it makes you distracted

Playlist for every occasion, especially when he’s having sex with you, the house ends up feeling hollow whenever he’s away without his angelic voice but to your surprise, Doyoung leaves you secret audio files lulling you in a trance

His mouth becomes a cherished part for you, especially the way the corners of his lips curl up naturally, the small smirk instantly widening when in front of food, or the blinding white teeth as he’s gritting them when approaching an orgasm or laughing at you, not with you

It takes about five minutes for Doyoung to arrange his plushies in the right position so you both don’t ruin them as you cuddle

One arm draped over a plush and the other wrapped around your back, or him in a fetal position with his plush embraced into his chest as you act as the big spoon

Hand holding is strictly for the bedroom with him, but he knows you admire his hands often, so he’ll have him some type of connection with you when out in public; whether it’s his pinkies wrapped around yours, curved into the loop of your pants, or his delicate veiny hand wrapping around your sleeve

End up catching him more than once, gushing over the phone with his brother about how in love he is with you and you may not lurk in the background for a few minutes until you interrupt the conversation by saying hi to Donghyun

Downtime for you two is building a puzzle, coloring some pages, playing board games and him smug with his victory, watching some documentaries or kdramas, and if you two bought some new furniture for your renovating house, he would most definitely want to do it by himself as you laugh while handing him pieces

Manages to still be shy when you both kiss, it’s you who initiates the subtle peck on his pouting lips, but soon the soft curve of his lips invites you more while your hands cup his warming cheeks--he’s a contradiction of being timid but with all the confidence as he nibbles your lips as if you were a delicacy

Training for you two equals nap time, his power allows him to rely on his mind rather than his body, so when you ultimately force yourself to exercise, Doyoung is laying on the couch, lazily cheering you on

Always giving you little compliments in your earpiece as he guides you around for a recon mission, and still holds his breath when he tells you about the unforeseen event that you need to be prepared for even though he knows you can handle it with ease

Studies multitudes of intel before a mission because he can never be too prepared, and it eases his nerves knowing that he can take every precaution in ensuring your safety

Would dedicate a photo album of himself on your phone, and even send you his recent selfies, telling you to choose one of them as an updated contact photo

You clown him 24/7 but he clowns you right back, it’s always a constant playful banter between you two, his eyebrows would furrow when you called him cute, the trembling of lips broke his facade, and when he does it to you, you essentially become his baby as he bites your cheeks but tell no one or he would deny it

From the moment you two wake up until you both arrive at headquarters, he has sullen look across his features, he would brush his lips across your temple and a hoarse good morning would escape his mouth in a notion to acknowledge you, but until he gets coffee in his system his energy hasn’t been restored yet, but your use to it as you tug him to the break room with his lidded eyes

Alone time is a must for you two, it could be both of you in the same room doing your own thing without communication or different parts of the house or mostly you would leave to run errands and Doyoung stuck in his room, but at the end of the day he crawls to you and says a small ‘hey’ as if his day just started from the moment he set eyes on you

Doyoung was always on alert, aware of incoming predictions that he had no say in but easily accepted, it’s a strain on his mental being, a reason why he needs to center himself by being alone, but then you come

Your blank, just like him, you’re unpredictable and foreign to him, but it’s not until you two kiss for the first time, that a hazy premonition reveals itself in a form of two children that share your hair but his feline eyes, it’s fragile though and uncharted, he knows that he needs to do right by you to get to the last level that seemed like paradise to him

Team Dreamer

Jaehyun

Power/Being: Android

During his exoskeleton stage, Jaehyun requested that the scientists create dimples during his living tissue transplant because he heard “they’re to die for”

Definitely thought it was a weapon utilized to kill his enemies

You make a habit to poke at his dimples until you feel the exoskeleton underneath, an oddly comforting sensation that makes you realize that Jaehyun doesn’t have a heart but his actions say otherwise 

Literally the personification of steam coming out of ears in cartoons with scalding red tips, this only happens when you’re in danger or when he sees you in what he perceives as provocative

It took five hours to draw an array of tattoos on him for a disguise on a reconnaissance mission, and a certain neck tattoo was going to make you abandon the mission and your sanity

Sadly, he had to erase them because the “the bad boy” persona was an official disguise in his hardware and couldn’t be revealed to the public

Jaehyun kept one design, however, a soft beauty mark on the apple of his left cheek, he claims it’s your signature as his owner but you like the word partner better

Programs all your training sessions and signature moves to his hard drive because he believes there is no better instructor than you  (except Bruce Lee)

The first time you helped him clean his internal munition unit, you couldn’t decipher any of the weapons so you gave them your own personal nicknames, he kept correcting you but he got tired so he now calls them “wholly fist” and “boom boom pow by the BEP”

You joke around with him that because he was created on valentine’s day, he should be credited as a sexbot but he always frowned at that comment until he figured out he could turn the tables on you by saying “I could be your sexbot”

Whenever he sees another person eyeing you in what he perceives is attraction, he activates his instant kill function with laser red eyes and declaring “target locked”

Suave and intimidating when you two first meet but truly transformed into a ‘soft boy’ after downloading your Pinterest board 

Whenever both of you are out in public, eyes ogle him and mouths gawk, but Jaehyun is oblivious to it all until he turns to someone and starts up the most wholesome conversation about something mundane and you know that person melts with ease because Jaehyun was built to reflect human nature, but he was doing better than most in your opinion

Lots of arcade dates with him, he quickly figured out the algorithm of each game just so he can overflow you with gifts and so he can show off his basketballs skills because he knows you love eyeing his arms in action

When he’s with you though, he’d rather listen and absorb every action and word that you produce, he wants to immerse himself in you because he truly believes that you are all that is good about humankind

Archives every single detail that you speak, and replays it for you when you forget something or to prove you wrong, there is no in-between

Robot sex!!!! That drilling option though...oof

The moment he realizes the blaring internal alarm warning him of his elevated temperature and the shorted circuits whenever you are near, he correlates it to what humans label  “love” so he downloads files on expressing these so-called feelings

Instead of saying “I love you”, he says “I dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin you” when he first confesses, and you assume there is a chemical imbalance within him so you rush him to the infirmary but for the first time, Jaehyun stalls and his eyes are clouded with retrieved information glowing neon green until he settles on “I love...I love...I love you” (yes, he stole it from Mr. Darcy, so sue him, he’s a fracking android)

Jaehyun sometimes doubts his ability to love you and even you sometimes question if you can love a piece of metal, but then you observe him before he joins you in bed that he triples check his instant kill function is disabled and he gushes about the new song he discovered and you are so sure that he was made for you

Jungwoo

Power: Lightning Bolt Projection

Gets easily flustered with the most pouty lip ever when you call him ‘Zeus’, it was his failed superhero name when he was trainee, but to you, he is much better than that jerk of a Greek god

Dressed up as the actual Zeus once for the office Halloween party and the year after that as a lightning bolt and you a storm cloud

Whenever Jungwoo craves attention but you’re occupied with another task, he repeatedly zaps you, not enough to harm, but until you cave in yet when you want to be annoyed with him, his owlish eyes and trembling lips easily subdue you

Your shoulder is a sacred space for him, it's the perfect fit for his head to settle in with a toothy grin and the warmest ‘mhms’ as he listens to you speak

Jungwoo was never much of a fighter, his powers were swift enough to eradicate enemies with not much mobility, but training sessions with you were more than enough of an excuse to spend time with you

Lately, your skin has been electrifying, not only the amorous glow you were emitting, but everyone you came in contact with felt a slight spark

Hair treatments are a must, the frizz is wild with Jungwoo, you really need to ask about his hair products because his hair so fluffy despite the amplitude of currents running through him

While brushing your teeth with him, he always shoots out finger hearts to you and winks through the mirror, it’s a great way to start the day

Never felt more grateful for his power until you were attacked on an assignment and your heart failed, it took four shocks to revive you with streams of tears and muttering to any God to hear his prayer

He’s most himself in the rain, umbrellas have never been on your shopping list

Definitely shoots bolts out of his finger guns and then blows on them afterward, if he’s feeling flirty, an added wink explodes your heart

Your biggest cheerleader when you are kicking ass during a mission

It’s a tradition for him to rake his fingers over your back with slight ripples of electricity while you cuddle in bed, it does wonders to relax your muscles

It’s been months of practice to improve his bolt voltage and range, but he finally managed to write ‘I love you y/n” in the sky, he couldn’t help it, he’s bursting at the seams with adoration for you

Both of you in the kitchen is a sight to see, you season but he cooks the food, his specialty is slightly charred chicken

Packs both of your lunches so you can eat together on break

Gets scared easily and as a result will discharge a lightning bolt as a defense, so pranks are off-limits between the team members

Literal sparks when you kiss, numbing and exhilarating as currents pass through your molding bodies to create goosebumps and raising hairs

When he thinks of home, his first instinct is to be cradled in your arms, watching trashy movies as a thunderstorm quakes the earth

Mark

Power: Compulsion

Mark might excel in whispering but when you turn the tables on him, with your sultry murmurs, he can’t help becoming a puddle of blushing mush

Never once used actual compulsion on you, the only exception is when you figured out the surprise birthday party he was planning for you, he redirected your attention to grocery shopping

His favorite part of you is your right ear because it’s where you naturally tuck your hair at and he just loves to twirl a strand of it in his finger while he mutters sweet nothings to you

You’re his bodyguard during missions, he can’t possibly get that close to targets while they attack if you aren’t watching his back

Even when he is supposed to be acting intimidating during an assignment, he can’t help but stutter and repeat ‘uh’ a thousand times, but he gets the job done eventually

Your literally breaking sweat, contorting your body so four targets don’t reach Mark, and he’s over there oversharing with another target

“The love of my life is about to kick your ass and you aren’t going to do a single thing about it, booby head” or “make the password ‘mark and y/n forever’ or else”

Naturally whispers in his sleep with his stinky breath in your ear, and you try to push him off but he just clings onto you like a koala 

In the morning though, the slight breakage in his voice from pitched to croaky as he says good morning to you is on repeat in your head for the whole day

Mark’s give away when he is about to use compulsion is him licking his thin lips, and almost makes you get knocked out by the enemy because your already under his spell

Does a tiny dance for any occasion, from doing the laundry, stripping naked, or when you two had your first kiss

It’s the strained grunts, the heavy breathing, and the showering of hushed compliments in your ears that makes you reach your peak in bed, Mark always sounded better when he was being pleasured

To him, your voice is the loveliest sound across the universe and your adorably awkward cackle that you so desperately try to hide as he reenacts vines to you is what happiness is to him

Ice cream dates consist of him bringing a tub of ice cream to a yogurt shop because he knows you prefer it

Coughed over his first fart with you but now he loves to fart on you as you pretend you are suffocating and gagging

Has a folder in his photos dedicated to you where it ranges from blurry to candids and in during most of them he was either hyping you up or teasing you

Greets you with a ‘yo!’ whenever he enters the room

Will always buy you any lip product associated with watermelon and you’ll always buy him baseball caps for him to wear

Despite being loud for 90% of your relationship, he is most vulnerable with when he whispers his greatest fears, future goals, and nightmares to you because your the only one he can trust

With the many decibels that Mark Lee varies in, your favorite by far has to be the ascending chortle from the low HAs to the high HEEs with clapping hands and a scrunched nose that puffs out his cheeks-- it’s pure bliss to you

Haechan

Power: Light Manipulation 

Haechan is utterly in love with your cheeks, instead of biting them or pinching them, he opts to kiss them whenever he has a chance, it’s rushing heat of your blush and the swelling of your smile that he lives for

The little spoon in bed, just so he can wrap his leg around you and nestle his head in the crook of your neck just like a koala

Literally always a brat to you, it’s the many ways he shows you affections

You asked him once to paint your nails, and now he does it every Friday ever since he discovered the ‘my hands look like this so hers can look like this’ meme even though his hands just have bitten nails

A man of action, Haechan shows you love through his movements with a heart framed by his fingers or blowing a kiss

Needs to always be physically attached to you, whether it’s hugging you from behind, leaning his head on your shoulder, or falling into you when he’s in a fit of giggles, he needs you to know that he will never let you go

Snarky remarks and cheesy jokes define your relationship with Haechan

Manages to always wake up before you on those lazy mornings with you burrowed deep into his side, and he can’t help but be memorized by your presence but soon feels selfish when he moves a ray of sunlight to your eyes so he can just peek at the explosion of colors in your eyes when you flutter them open--ah yes, this is his favorite part of the day

Loves to play video games with you into the late hours of the night, especially overwatch, but your always the first one to pass out, so he makes sure to tuck you in and dim the light of the screen so it doesn’t bother you

Most nights the both of you are wide awake so you end up playing ‘what the light?’, a game where Haechan creates 3D objects out of light and you have to guess what they are before he finishes them

Oh, and shadow puppets! He’s become quite the expert with them, he creates the most ridiculous stories with them but you join him by voicing the characters

In addition to ‘I love you’ as a goodbye, you have a secret intricate handshake with him, his excuse was that if you two ever question’s one identity if ever an enemy swapped bodies, you two would know the truth with the handshake but in reality, he just loves that extra time with you before you two part 

It’s either Haechan teasing and making fun of you or he’s doting on you, there is no in-between because after all, you are his idiot

If he’s in the mood, he’ll solidify light photons into the shape of a sword and call it ‘sunflower’, he just loves to tell the tale that he took out fifteen assassins with a sunflower, but usually, he blinds them or burns them

Goes the extra mile for you to create a spotlight on you when you are giving a mission brief at headquarters, that’s the love of his life right there and he’ll make damn sure everyone notices them

Recreates Edward’s sparkling in the sun scene just so he can see you beam with laughter 

Master of mood lighting during sex, and don’t even mention when he hits his climax, bulbs flickers and lamps explode

It might be a trick of the light, but Haechan’s eyes are vividly bright and he’s drowned in golden hues of sunlight, it makes you wonder if he was plucked from the star itself

Yet, as your lips quiver and your glassy eyes blink the last remnants of tears in Haechan’s cupped hands, there is an inner glow from them as you bask in their warmth, he can’t help but proclaim that you are the sun of his world, you are the light of his life even when it feels like his is diminishing

[penwieldingdreamer]

Stop getting shot

A short one shot for Jack Traven, after I’ve been rewatching Speed for the probably 100th time.

Warnings: none, just fluff

Words: 752

“Love you baby.” he whispered, kissing along your neck. A soft moan left your lips as you leaned back against him.

You never would have guessed that you'd end up with this wonderful man. Jack was the whole package. Sweet, adventurous, funny, good looking, the list could go on and on. He was part of the LAPD SWAT team, often being called into hostage situations or those that required the best men they had.

“Remember the day we met?”

Of course you did. Jack had just broken up with Annie, because they both felt it wasn't right anymore. You nodded your head and smiled at him. “I do, you came into the shop like every morning and I was new there.”

“Yeah.” he returned the smile. “I felt like a MACK truck hit me.” His hands stroked along your back, the heat of his hands seeping through the fabric of your dress.

Giggling, you put your hands around his neck, playing with the short hairs on the back. “Yeah, you fessed up after a drunken night. I never thought I'd get a chance with you.”

“Oh baby, you have no idea how much I want you right now.” The smirk playing on his lips before he laid them on yours, sealing them with a kiss. You moaned as you lightly bit his lower lip, begging for entrance. Your thumbs moved over his cheekbones and you heard the catcall around you. All of your friends were there today, watching you in the middle of the room.

“I don't think it's a good idea to start something here, Jack.” you smiled once you broke the kiss, earning another chuckle from him.

Jack nodded his head, looking around at all the people circling you, swaying to the music that was playing just for you. “Yeah, don't think it's a good plan, but I just can't resist my sweet wife.”

You laughed, your fist hitting his right shoulder eliciting a groan from the detective, forgetting that he just had been shot today. “I'm sorry baby, but please stop getting shot, it stresses me out.”

Kissing your temple, Jack put his arms around your shoulders, pulling you closer to his body. “I'm sorry, too, but that's my job.”

Laying your head on his shoulder you breathed in his smell, something you missed every time he was gone in the morning before. “I know, but I got to tell you something Jack.”

“What is it, Y/N?”

“I saw you on TV today, Jack.” you started so softly that he had to strain to hear you talk. “It's our wedding day today and you went off to work with McMahon. And when I saw you get shot, I just, I was afraid, you know.”

Gently pulling your head back, your husband looked at you, his thumbs stroking your cheekbones. “I love you, Y/N, and I'm always going to come back to you, no matter what.”

“I know, babe, but it's not just the two of us anymore.”

At the disbelief on his face, your lips pulled up into a soft smile. His dark eyes turned down to your middle “Y-You're” Jack stuttered, slightly pushing you away to watch you again. “We're having a baby?”

Biting your lip you nodded your head. “You're going to be a daddy.”

Laughing loudly, the detective pulled you up into his arms, swinging you around in circles. “I'm gonna be a father.” he cried, turning to all of your friends, a big smile on his lips. Finally he set you back down on your feet. Everyone around you was clapping, joyous laughter filling the room.

Captain McMahon walked up to you, clapping Jack on the shoulder and kissing your cheek. “Congratulation, Y/N, Jack. These are great news and on such a wonderful day.”

“Thank you, Mac, but please make sure he comes back in one piece now.” you said, pointing at the dark haired man beside you.

The dark skinned man laughed, clapping his detective on the shoulder, not seeing the wince on Jack's face. “I will give my best, you know how your husband is like.”

“Yes, I know.” you brushed your hand along his jaw, smiling softly at your husband. “That's why I love him.”

Jack grinned, leaning down and sealing your lips with his again. His hand brushed over the still flat planes of your belly, pulling your back against his front. “I love you, too, and soon our little one.”
