Pretty When You Cry

Did I leave for two hours and come back with this?! Yes, I did! Mainly, my idea for writing this is because he cries often in the show when upset or overwhelmed, so why not let that apply to sex too? Synopsis: He's having relationship issues with Amber, but you're willing to be his distraction... right?

Warnings: Dacryphillia, Sub!Mark (canonically loves his women in charge), Soft Dom!Reader, Position changes, implied struggles with romance, no contraception (pull out game 💀), porn w a plot, fem presenting reader, friends to lovers?

Mark Grayson/Invincible x Fem!Reader Word Count: 2,542

He was such a pretty crier. A man in tears was a man you could love for years. It was a sight you never grew tired of. While it would be shameful to admit, you partially listened to him spill his troubles to see those glistening pearls bubble down his waterline. As you stared at him admiringly perched against his rooftop, you listened as he poured his heart out, a feeling of pity settling in your gaze.

Little did you know, his emotions were stirring more than usual and creating an unfamiliar sense of lust towards you.

This was wrong—utterly and irrevocably wrong.

Mark gazed idly at your dimly lit features as you looked up at the stars from the roof—he had decided to invite you over to his place after a fight with his girlfriend; he didn't want to go home, and he definitely didn't want to be alone. The fight with Amber still lingered, a bitter taste in his mouth, but it was nothing compared to the turmoil brewing in his chest.

He wanted a break; you were just that. One of his childhood friends and confidants. He was certain he and Amber were over; it was a situation where he didn’t realize they were broken up until it was too late. So, why the hell, in the midst of everything, was he thinking about kissing you? He HAD a girlfriend a few hours ago, one who loved him with every fiber of her being.

Yet, you were always so pretty to him. It would be a lie to say he hadn’t had a crush on you in the past, or even fucked his fist at the thought of you until his dick was raw and coated in lotion. It was pathetic, he knew it, but more than ever now he felt enticed by your very presence. The way your lips would speak such comforting words, and you would stare at him as if only he existed. Sure, the relationship between him and Amber didn’t work out because he’s Invincible and she’s a regular human, but he could be selfish just this once… right?

For the thousandth time, you reassured him Amber would return to him with a new resolve. It was almost like you were trying to convince the two of you. It was nonexistent now. So what else could he do besides cast aside his doubt and stare at those puffy lips?

“You okay?” You asked, curious about his staring. “Yeah… yeah, I’m okay.” He muttered like a dejected puppy, tugging at your heartstrings. “Right, so instead of moping… you need a stress reliever. For your sake. Dragging yourself around all day won’t help.” You sighed quietly as your fingers gently rested against the thin cloth of his back reassuringly. “Right,” he replied, “What’s your idea of a stress reliever—and don’t say exercise; I already do that constantly.” His fingers gestured in your direction, some of his playfulness returning. “Get this,” you started as if to say something revolutionary. “Exercise.”

His eyes rolled as he mumbled under his breath, his head turning to face you with a raised brow. “You’re such a comedian.” He quipped. “Come on, an actual one that won’t have me sweating and panting like a dog, okay? Please?” His voice struck a chord within you; it was the perfect rasp and whine. Not to mention his words causing your thoughts to travel a million miles past sexual. “I wouldn’t mind the sight,” you said casually. “Besides the lotion and tissue in your room, it suggests you ‘exercise” more than enough.” It was a harmless joke, enough to bring him pause as you two quietly chuckled. It was embarrassing, but nothing he couldn’t deny. “Uh. Yeah.” He muttered.

As you leaned over slightly, his staring persisted. Your shoulder rested against his as you stared into his eyes. His gaze avoided you momentarily before locking within your reflection. “Mark, what’s going on?” You asked, head tilting slightly. “I know I’m not going crazy; you’ve been staring at me since you invited me over. You didn’t call me over just to stare.” The last sentence was sarcastic. “I did.” He rasped; it was hushed and nearly caused your hearts to flutter in tandem.

“They are different. Very different. But I… didn’tknowhowtotellyoubecauseitfeelsdesperatetosaythisnowthatamberandibrokeupbutivelikeyouforarlongtimeandimeansincewewerekidsandireallywanttokissyourightnowandineedtobeinsideyou.”

It poured out like an unexpected dam breaking.

As you stared at him in silence, your looks of bewilderment matched one another’s. To escape his embarrassment, he briskly stood up, opening his bedroom window, and climbed in. As he turned away, you crawled in behind him, his gaze slowly meeting yours as you gave a “Fuck it” sort of nod.

The actions were fast, rushed even. He needed a distraction to quiet his never-ending mind, and like always, you were the solution. His fingers draped over your waist as he pulled you in, your lips meeting his in feverish delight. His body heat as a Viltrumite ran hot, your bodies already producing a light sheen of sweat. The quiet sounds of moans mingled between hot breaths. Tilting his head further, his lips parted as his tongue jutted out in search of yours. It was a gentle yet mutually needy kiss; your bodies were pressed so firmly together you could feel the tent forming against his slacks.

He was an excited one, but gentle. Tangling your fingers in his hair, you tugged the strands to earn a strangled groan. His lips latched onto yours like a suction cup; only when he was satisfied with your moans did his puffy lips shift down your neck. His tongue tickled the skin, not leaving marks as to get caught, but covering you in his taste. Your fingers delved under the fabric of his shirt as you relished the attention.

The indentation of his abs was the sweetest treat; your fingers shifted upwards, exposing his abdomen to the night's chill as you both groaned. His feet shuffled forward clumsily as you two fell against his bed. Sitting you up, his fingers nimbly worked you out of your shirt and pants. Your hands fumbled to get his pants down, but eventually, they pooled around his ankles. Just as he assisted you in removing his shirt, you took in his appearance with such admiration and lust while he stared at you reverently.

You two, while being incredibly impatient, nearly skipped foreplay entirely. His fingers unclasped your bra and removed the matching colored panties down the flesh of your thighs. The wet patch forming in his boxers was becoming evident; his arousal was at an all-time high, and his stamina was mounting for the night ahead. Pressing you back against the bed, your bodies pressed together, his heart pounding, you devoured each other's mouths. His tongue was like a tender caress that made your stomach tie in knots; the anticipation was killing you. “Ha… I needed this.” His words muffled between kisses as you hummed in agreement.

He pulled away, his thumb dragging down the corner of his boxer as his cock slowly sprung from beneath the fabric. In all its glory, it stood with neatly trimmed pubes and visibly throbbing with restraint. Once his last article of clothing hit the ground, he took a moment to nervously chuckle as he admired you splayed beneath him. His expression was giddy as it traced down the supple curves of your figure, the fat of your breasts and arousal coating the outside of your folds catching his attention more than anything. You looked gorgeous.

Time was up. You had enough and needed a little more. Reaching up to give him a gentle peck, you flipped him onto his back as you straddled him. He looked surprised but welcomed the authority as he melted beneath you. His lips sought yours, and your fingers began to caress your clit as you continued. The quiet sound of your arousal pooled into his ears, his eyes fluttering open as he stared at you with your eyes screwed shut in bliss. He could feel himself nearly cum from the sight alone. His dick was beginning to hurt, and to soothe the ache, his fingers wrapped around his cock and pumped in tandem with your fingers.

Slightly annoyed, your fingers swatted his away and brought it to your clenching hole, ready to milk him dry. As his first digit entered your warmth, he shivered. He could feel every ridge and contraction as your abs squeezed from the pleasure. His fingers formed a V, and once spread enough, you took your seat with pleasure. It would normally hurt, but thanks to your sadistic mind imagining his crying for the last few hours, you’d been leaking like a faucet.

The stretch was delicious, but nothing was better than his blissed expression and immediate groan. He was reactive, the perfect man for your little kink. Never mind not having a condom; he was never the most responsible in that manner.

The slow, deliberate movement of your hips was like a tantalizing dance, teasing him with every rotation. His fingers dug into your thighs, urging you on as you began riding him with an unhurried intensity. His eyes locked onto yours, his eyes occasionally fluttering shut in pleasure as he fought the urge to slam you down against him. While he would love to, he felt helpless and abandoned to your will, a willing captive, lost in the maelstrom of desire.

His chest rose and fell as quiet whines slowly filled his throat; the sight of his eyes rolling back before fluttering finally broke the final restraints of your self-perseverance. Digging your fingernails into his chest, your hips rose slowly before suddenly dropping with a renewed conviction. “Oh… F-Fuck… yes.” He sighed, like this was the medicine he’d been craving. As much of a gentleman as he was for his girlfriends, he certainly was lascivious when he intended.

Shifting his fingers to your ass, he assisted in the fluidity of your movements. His strength allows you to glide along his cock with ease. Moans began to filter from your lips, “That’s… perfect, don’t you stop.” You demanded it with every bit of grit you could muster. Your fingers clasped around the width of his chin so he could focus on you, his body bounced against the mattress as the air was knocked from him. He wasn’t the most talkative, but he was vocal.

“I’m not… I’m not going to stop. Feels so perfect in here, I can’t—I.” He stammers wearily as his body moves on autopilot. You watched as he practically fucked himself dumb; the sound of skin colliding filled your ears as your teeth gnawed at your lip. One particularly deep thrust seemed to have sent him into overdrive; his tip could feel your insides contracting as if to suck him in more.

He wanted to be buried in you; he could imagine you two fucking like rabbits. He smiled weakly at the thought. His toes curled into the mattress as your back arched, and harsh gasps erupted from his throat as his body trembled. A groan, a measly groan of his resilience, echoed in the room. Lost in your own sounds of pleasure, you had yet to notice the man nearly convulsing beneath you.

His hand left your hips and rose to the fingers that gripped his chin. Suddenly, your impending orgasm was ruined. “Sorry, I’m s—sorry, I’m so sorry.” He babbled before pressing a firm hand against your stomach and resting your back against the bed. Before you could react, he sheathed himself within your pussy once more and fucked you with vigor to make up for lost time.

He attempted to speak, only his jaw clenched in response. Your head fell back against the edge of the bed. The legs of the bed frame wobbled as it rocked sideways; the thumps against the wall filled the room.

Pleasured grunts and profanities fell from your pouted lips as you ground back against him. A high-pitched whine fell from him as his head fell. “Oh- jesus, what—what the fuck? You feel so, so, so, so.” He slurred slightly, and you chuckled in response. “Fuck… mm, seems like you’ve wanted this for a while?” You question through moans, your fingers cupping your bouncing breasts from his gaze as he grew distracted.

“You… have noooo idea.” He admitted, too, in bliss to care much about embarrassment.

Your core slowly began to tighten, and so did your chest as his body pressed forward with nearly all his weight. His fingers curled into the blankets as his tongue ran dry with ruined sobs. His pelvis rubbing deliciously against your clit made your legs stiffen behind him. He moved to pull away, but before you could, one of your legs hooked around the width of his neck. The position elevated your hips slightly, his dick punctuating with each thrust unintentionally.

He was losing his mind. Such raw and unfiltered love swelled his chest. Your fingers wrapped around the width of his lower back to spur him on; your orgasm was quickly doubling back. “P-Please, can’t cum inside… fuck,” he muttered wearily as tears began to fall. His body trembling with pleasure, he couldn't help but feel overwhelmed. The sensation was too much, the pressure building in his chest like a dam about to burst. He tried to hold it back, to grit his teeth and bear it, but it was no use. The pleasure mounting had his body wracking in ways he had yet to feel so intensely.

With a satisfied grin, you watched his pretty lashes become coated with warm tears. The salty taste stained your lips as he moaned in delight. Your sounds mingled with one another until they became indistinguishable. His fingers found the fat of your ass, and he bullied himself into you; the strength behind it made you dizzy.

Wiping his tears away, you peppered gentle kisses against his face. “I've always loved you,” he muttered suddenly; you grinned in response. “Love you too,” you replied gingerly before a high-pitched whine ripped from your throat. The tip of his tongue pawed at your nipple desperately, the bud hardening beneath his cold saliva. Your orgasm hit you like a train as your back arched, your fingers clasped at him, and your legs trembled. Harsh gasps left you in your failed attempt to remain silent. Hedonistic praises left you, but Mark could barely respond. The throbbing sensation of your pussy was practically trying to suck the cum from his cock. “Please, oh fuck, please, baby, I’m gonna cum. Holy shit.” His words were hurried as he let out a chuckle of disbelief.

At his words, your leg freed him as he pulled out just last minute, his sperm barely making it to your abdomen. His body hunched over as he gasped, his jaw slacking as his muscles visibly strained. Slow whines spilled from his lips as he came down from his high. His recovery time was fast, though his body still trembled with an after shock. With bated breaths, you both stared at one another; his eyes were barely focused as he sat in awe. You both chuckled at one another before his rasped voice called out to you.

“You think we should date?” He asked before correcting himself. “I mean, do you want to date me? I mean, you don’t have to if you don’t want to, but I would like—“ A pillow slammed into his face as you rolled your eyes. “Sure, Mark. I’d love to go out with you.”

Had to be dramatic like the show lmfao.

General masterlist

You have your own suite. Well, it's not exactly yours, it's Mark’s room, but he barely spends time there, since most of his time is spent destroying Earth and intimidating civilians, alongside Omni-man. Meanwhile, you're always chained to the foot of his bed, just enough freedom to go to the bathroom and wander through almost all the expanse of the room. You can't even reach the door, not that it would change anything, there’s no one around to help you, much less someone brave enough to go against Invincible’s wishes.

Omni-man and Invincible like to talk as if you aren't in the room, as if you're invisible. You know the former doesn't understand why his son keeps a pet since it's death will come before Mark can even look like a 30 year old human. You're the pet. But he shrugs it off when Mark reminds him that not everything is about work, and if he can do whatever he wants to humans, then he wants to have a pet.

Mark is cruel. He always reminds you that the only thing stopping him from harming and killing you is your pretty face. That you only get to eat because he likes your body healthy. That you only get to shower and brush your teeth because he wants to breathe in a nice smell when he’s close to you. That you're only kept in his room and not at one of the slave’s camps because he likes to fuck you.

And you know it. You know it in the way he sometimes doesn't allow you to wear clothes. In the way he doesn't treat you like a person, more like a playtoy or decoration. In the soreness left when he's done.

But sometimes, sometimes you get confused. Because he lays his head on your chest when he wants to take a nap or just feel comforted. Because he keeps you in his room when you know he could just throw you in a cell. Because once in a while he asks about your old interests, and gets excited about things you had in common. Because he gives you things to entertain yourself. Because sex with him is good even when it's not consensual. Because he has a pretty smile. Because he doesn't look like the sadistic dictator who destroyed your city and killed half the people you knew, when he takes his mask off.

You wonder if he still keeps this human side of him because he simply grew up like that and it's too ingrained in his personality, or because he misses his mom and his friends.

It doesn't matter in the end, you're doomed in and out of this room. You're only human, he's a viltrumite. He was made to be a conqueror. You're gonna die faster than he can blink. He's gonna find another pet. At least, you can have some comfort if you keep him happy.

MARK GRAYSON CRUSH & DATING HEADCANONS

CRUSH

when he first saw you in the hallway at school, you caught his eye

he was just talking to William and when you passed by him, all his attention on William shifted to you

he couldn’t help it, you were just so mesmerizing

he didn’t fall in love with you immediately since he didn’t really knew what you were like yet

when he did get the chance to though, thats when he was head over heels for you

the more he spends time with you, the more he realizes how his heart beats faster whenever you’re around

whenever you talk to him, he often stutters and mixes up his words

it’s embarrassing for him, but its cute

whenever you tease him, his face just turns red and he tries to tease you back

Mark would mention you a lot to his parents

the first time you came over to help him study, his mom, Debbie asked “Mark, isn’t this the person you often talk about at dinner?”

Mark just stood there, red as a tomato and immediately denied

DATING

eventually he asked you out and you said yes

ever since he got his powers and became Invincible, he would often come late to dates

he would always come up to you, panting while his hand was holding flowers for you or a small gift

he would remember little things about you and try his best to make sure the gift he gives you is something you would like

you heard him apologize a dozen times already about how late he was

of course, you had no idea at the time about his powers and everything so you just assumed he’s being rude on purpose

this led to many fights

you both were able to work it out each time though by communication

when Mark finally told you he’s Invincible after another argument about him being late, you stood there thinking he’s probably making another excuse

“You don’t believe me? Fine.”

Mark then proceeds to float up in the air, his feet were off the ground

that’s when it hit you and made you realize why he was late all of the time

he wasn’t lying, he IS Invincible

ever since that day, your relationship with Mark was stronger than ever

you often had to make excuses for him, but you didn’t really mind (it can get annoying after multiple times)

he would often call you petnames — babe, baby

he would definitely love to cuddle with you and sleep beside you

Mark loves to admire you and think about how lucky he is to have you

[guardianjameslight]

How are these things not improvements? I mean, seriously, do we need people talking like that?

REWRITE A Healing Touch~ Part 1

Rex-Splode! Rex Sloan x Superpowered! Reader

Summary: Working at the Superhero Hospital under Cecil was not something you looked forward to, until Rex Sloan comes in, close to death, and you have a chance to save him in more ways than you could imagine.

Trigger Warnings: Violence, Death, Injury, and Emotional Distress

Word Count: 1.6k

Of course, your every waking moment was spent shadowing your father at the Pentagon's Superhero Hospital. It was only fitting seeing as your father was one of the few heroes with medical-related powers that willingly gave his future to the government. His job was taxing but as he had told you it was rewarding. Seeing the heroes, he saved getting back out into the fold after seeing him was enough for him.

Maybe he felt like the people the heroes saved were also people he saved by some stretch. You suppose it was kind of true in some roundabout way.

Which is why you were shadowing him. Cecil was already looking to the future. With superheroes becoming more and more mainstream and less and less ostracized it only made sense for the hospital to hire people who could get their heroes back out onto the streets fighting crime, quicker.

So here you were watching your father work his magic on some lesser-known hero. One under a lot fewer NDAs than Immortal or some other superheroes. You and your dad had the same powers. Being able to direct healing energy into the bodies of others to speed up the healing process. This meant healing broken bones in a matter of minutes, shrinking tumors until cancer wasn't even on the table, and so much more that you were learning during your training.

You've watched routine checkups on Black Samson, surgeries on Night Boy after his tussle with Invincible, and currently the aftermath of the biggest attack on superheroes since the original Guardians of the Globe were killed in a fight. They were still trying to catch the culprit, who killed the Guardians, your mother included.

You forced your thoughts away as you saw many Dupli-Kates wheeled in on stretchers, unmoving, and most certainly not breathing. Shrinking Ray, covered in goo and blood, with a doctor performing chest compressions. Lastly, Rex-Splode whose hand was no longer attached to his body, and a sizable hole in the front of his skull.

Rex's head shifted as the gurney made a sharp turn into Trauma One, with Dupli-Kate, and Shrinking Ray following suit into Trauma Two and Three. You made a move to follow one of the teams, any of the teams, but your dad simply shook his head and went in after Ray, closing the door firmly behind him.

You spent the night in an uncomfortable waiting chair. Watching as different nurses and doctors came in and out of the medical rooms. With the many injuries, there were many different doctors needed for treatment. Fewer and fewer people were coming out of and going into Kate's room, which was never a good sign.

Medical professionals, you've spent months working with sliding to the floor when coming out of the rooms just to take a breath. This line of work took a toll on a person. You realized whenever children, teens, or even just young adults were involved the mood was much more somber.

When your dad finally came out of surgery he had deep bags under his eyes, and a weary smile as he looked at you. Without much of a word, he sat down next to you and started to speak. The treatments and surgeries were working, but they were worried it wouldn't heal Rex and Ray fast enough to save them. There was an assignment that you could take on if you were ready.

"Your healing aura will help... him. If you stay in his room while he recovers, his chance of recovery increases exponentially. You can say no if you-"

"I can do this, Dad. My first job" You sat and smiled at each other for a minute.

"You're good, you know that?" You made eye contact with him and gave him a little smile.

"Thanks, Dad. It means a lot coming from you"

"Your mom would be so proud of the person you've become"

He showed you to a hospital room outfitted with tons of machines, all beeping rhythmically to create a symphony dedicated to a person who was currently alive and sitting at death's door.

"I'm going to be in Ray's room, and then I'm going home. I want to make sure she's healing alright. I will see you after I take a shower and a nap. I love you." He pulled you close and pressed a firm kiss to your forehead.

"Love you too, Dad."

Of course, it was never that easy. Due to your father being the first person everybody calls when a catastrophe strikes, you barely get to see more than a glimpse of him. Still, your mission was clear, to make sure this boy, Rex, made a full recovery.

So for days, you watched his chest slowly rise and fall. Focused on his head and his hand, now fitted with an advanced prosthetic that was barely distinguishable from his other hand. Trying to keep him from falling apart at the seams.

When you weren't focused on the drained feeling your powers gave you, or using your draining powers you were pacing the floor, either in the room or in the hallway just outside. Or reading in the chair next to you, sometimes you read silently and other times out loud just in case the man you were reading to could understand your words. Other than that you could usually be found sleeping in uncomfortable positions in the chair next to the bed.

Sometimes nurses and doctors would come in to ask you questions about Rex and how he was doing, and if there had been any changes to his condition. You had taken to answering these questions in as professional a manner as you could muster. Practicing what your dad had taught you. Usually, the nurses would check everything, empty his catheter bag, replace his fluids, and tell you to press the call button if anything changed.

Your dad came in sometimes when his work allowed him. He would check his healing progress and usually remark how fast he was healing thanks to you.

Every so often his friends would stop by, always a little shocked to see a stranger in Rex's room. They warmed up to you and even made small talk while you gathered some things to flee the room. Giving them as much privacy as possible you walked around. Sometimes finding your dad rushing between patients, or going to the cafeteria to grab food or a coffee if it was a rather long day.

Atom Eve, as she told you to call her many times, visited the most. Sometimes, you wondered if they were a couple, but you quickly shut those thoughts out, trying not to speculate on people you didn't even really know.

After about a week of slouching around and trying to heal Rex faster, you were lying on your stomach on the floor next to the bed. Reading your fourth book in the past three days, you heard a groan from above.

You shot to your feet to look at Rex who was currently struggling to look around the room with the contraption on his head keeping his skull together. He futilely tried to move his arms, but the weight of his limbs seemed to be too much for him.

You hit the call button and gently took his hand in your own, "Rex, everything is going to be okay. You were injured and in the hospital recovering right now. Stay calm"

The speech you had been making up in your head for the past week finally got the chance to leave your lips. It seemed to soothe him a little bit because he stopped trying to look around the room, and he settled his eyes on you.

"Wha's happening?" which came out a little more like "wash hapin"

The nurses who you had been seeing frequently swarmed his bed to take vitals and shine bright lights into his pupils. You thought about letting go when his fingers tightened slightly around yours. Then he was squeezing as hard as he could as the nurses and doctors poked and prodded at half-healed wounds, and you stood there holding his hands and trying to be the calm one.

As quickly as they had come they rushed out with samples and others with pain medication. The lights were being brightened and dimmer; everything made you want to turn and run, but still, Rex held your hand in his. Grounding you as you were his lifeline to a hint of normalcy.

Once the barrage of needles and hands left his body, his hand relaxed and you could finally lift your hand out of his. You pulled your chair next to his bedside and resumed holding his hand as he slept.

A whisper pulled you from your sleep, "Eve?"

His speech was more clear than it was just a few hours ago, and you sat up realizing that your head was resting on the hospital bed with your hand on top of his.

"Oh, no, sorry, my name's Y/n, and I've been helping you heal the past week or so" You pulled your hand away but he gently grabbed your wrist.

He let go as soon as he saw your eyes widen and eyebrows raise, "Shit, I'm sorry, you can keep your hand there s'all."

Your face heated up a bit as you rested your hand on top of his again, "You were talking to me... when I was... out"

"Yeah, sometimes I would talk to you or read to you when things felt a little too quiet. Didn't want you to get bored or anything. Sorry if it was bothersome."

"No, it was nice. Actually, could you read something now?"

"I can do that Rex,

November 7, 1991, Dear friend, It was one of those days that I didn’t mind going to school because the weather was so pretty. The sky was overcast with clouds, and the air felt like a warm bath. I don’t think I ever felt that clean before..."

Barely audible, you heard Rex mumble, "Thank you."
