“Ooh~...” the villain moaned out with one cocked, teasing eyebrow, “Ravish me, my dear hero.”

The hero flushed beet red. They made a mistake at letting their chokehold grip on the villain’s wrists falter and gasped, opening their eyes to see that the villain has switched their positions.

A lopsided grin engraved on the villain’s face, holding the hero’s wrists in place on the wall, “Poor little hero, too naïve for your own good.”

Villain: *is male and attractive*

My moral compass: “Adios.”

[inkygemuwu]

The sidekick, the hero’s right hand man, is loyal and diligent.

If only they didn’t have a massive kink for being tied up and interrogated by the villain.

— Prompt written by @vigilantetendencies.

──────⊱◈◈◈⊰──────

“Anything else, boss?” the villain’s henchmen were already done tying the hero’s sidekick up on the chair, ensuring the restrains were tight enough to prevent any attempts of escape.

“No, I’ll take it from here. You can leave now.” the villain declared, waving a dismissive hand to the henchmen as they marched out of the room and closed the door behind them, leaving the sidekick alone with the villain now.

“So,” the villain started, sauntering towards the table and sitting on the chair in front of the sidekick. “You’re finally here. All alone. Away from that pesky little hero of yours now.”

The sidekick’s expression was even, trying their best to stay cool and ignore their heart thumping with excitement in their chest at the very thought of being interrogated by the villain, all tied up.

They hadn’t expected to be easily caught like this without forknowledge. They were usually the vigilant and tactical type, so knowing those kinds of prospects beforehand and making a well-thought plan to ward them off was their flair.

But right now? That seemed to be an exception. And they hated how much they hoped for this day to come.

“I finally managed to capture you after countless of times trying and failing when I was so close to.” the villain mused, crossing their arms as they assessed the sidekick carefully, looking them up and down. It sent a shiver up the sidekick’s spine. “Though, I must admit that it was quite the challenge, you know. You are quite the trickster.”

“Guess this is your lucky day then.” the sidekick deadpanned, looking bored.

“Indeed.” the villain leaned in, tapping their finger on the table, “I saw you back then at the battlefield. You were quite impressive. Your performance was extraordinary; your swiftness, your intelligence, your diligence. No wonder that little hero chose you to be by their side.” the villain sighed, “If only your skills were put to good use. You would be perfect on the right side.”

“In your dreams, swine.” the sidekick bristled, “I’ll never be on your side.”

The villain chuckled, sitting up from their seat and looming over the sidekick. They watched as the villain hovered over them and yelped when the villain abruptly yanked them by their shirt collar, focing them to look at them. “Don’t be so sure of yourself, darling. Who knows? Maybe your loyalty might fail you too, just like how your whatchfulness failed you today.” their breath was hot against the sidekick’s ear.

The sidekick’s heart hammered, feeling their face heat up at the sudden contact. They hoped the villain didn’t see their blush.

The villain noticed the sidekick drop their cold and aloof mien, noticed how their eyes dilated in the dim room.

And for the first time, a smirk crept itself onto the villain’s face. “Ah, I see.”

The sidekick gulped.

The villain’s thin fingers that held the sidekick’s collar wiggled slightly, their eyes narrowed.

“You like being tied up and interrogated, don’t you, darling?” the villain murmured, their other hand caressing the sidekick’s scarred jaw.

The sidekick flinched at the touch. Uncharacteristically, they didn’t look like they knew what to do in this situation. They’ve fought armies of enemies before, came up with solutions for complicated cases, made up perfect plans to infiltrate places, sneaked past well-trained guards, dismantled security systems and whatnot. They were a strategist. The hero always relied on them to accomplish missions.

They were the hero’s diligent and loyal sidekick, the hero’s second-in-command. They would never let anything make their loyalty waver.

They always had the upper hand in every situation.

And yet...

Here they were, submitting to the villain, to their touch, to their tempting voice.

It occurred to them a second too late to jerk their head away from the villain’s hands and muster their professional and untouchable expression back again after it broke.

“Defiant, I see.” the villain said. “I like it. You’re trying to make yourself look like you’re in control, aren’t you?”

The sidekick snarled at them.

“You were always so diligent, so objective, so hard-working. You always managed to fool your enemies. You always managed to find ways to get away from my reach. But right now, you’re just a little helpless sidekick. Defenceless, in distress, hopeless. You can’t save yourself from me this time.” the villain’s smirk broadened, “In fact, you’re definitely enjoying it right now, I’m sure, that you don’t even want to bother come up with some plan to trick me.”

The sidekick’s face was beet red, their eyebrows twitching, fighting their emotions.

Damn it!

The sidekick hated themself for feeling this way. They hated how their emotions spiralled and swayed, whenever the villain hovered over them like that.

And worst of all they couldn’t deny the villain’s words. Just like they said; they didn’t bother trying to free themself from their restrains. They didn’t bother coming up with a good plan to escape, like they usually did. They did love it when the villain tied them up and interrogated them like this. It was phenomenal. It was exciting.

The villain giggled, utterly amused, and let go of the sidekick. They retreated back to their seat, propping their chin on their hand.

“So, chall we begin with the hero’s location?”

It was only the beginning.

“W–we're alone.” the hero nervously stated, a bit of sweat dripping down their forehead.

“Correct~.” the villain purred, crowding them against the wall. “No pesky media to interrupt us in sight~.”

“W–we're alone.” the hero nervously stated, a bit of sweat dripping down their forehead.

“Correct.” the villain purred, crowding them against the wall. “No pesky media to interrupt us in sight.”

The hero swallowed hard. They felt stupid for letting themself get caught again by the villain.

The villain grinned, all teeth, and pinned the hero to the wall, hands mercilessly on either side of their head, allowing no way to escape their grasp now.

The hero’s face reddened, still speechless.

“What’s the matter, darling? Cat got your tongue?” the villain tilted their head in a way that made the hero’s heart slam in their chest.

“Wh–what do you want?” it was barely above a whisper.

The villain ignored them, their luscious gaze flicked to the hero’s lips, and then back up to their eyes, drinking up the sight in front of them.

“You look beautiful like this, cornered and confused and so easily flustered. Makes me wonder what you’d look like if I just..” the villain leaned closer, their breath brushing hot against the hero’s ear.

The hero’s face coloured further, an unsavoury feeling blooming in their stomach. “Get away from me.” they hated the crack in their voice.

“But your little reactions are just so adorable, darling.” the villain murmured, voice honeyed and thick.

“Let—” the hero’s voice cut to gasp as the villain started trailing kisses down their neck. They bit their lip, resisting the moan rising in their throat.

“S–stop..” the hero managed, begging, “You can’t just.. just kiss me–.. like that.”

They felt cold as the villain suddenly let go of them, feeling strangely empty, like a part of them was missing.

“Well, that was fun. See you next time.” the villain said and was about to turn around to leave when the hero, unable to suppress their instincts, clutched their shirt and yanked them back, pressing their lips together in a passionate kiss.

Hero: “Are you trying to seduce me?”

Villain: “Why, are you seducible?”

— Prompt written by @amberss.

──────⊱◈◈◈⊰──────

“Are you trying to seduce me?”

“Why, are you seducible?” the villain smirked.

The hero’s face flashed, flustered, at the villain’s response. They didn’t expect them to answer in such a way. At least not like that.

This wasn’t the first time the villain tried to seduce them. They’d tried it before, several times, and yet it never ceased.

The little compliments and the eandearing nicknames were the start of it all. It was just flirting at the beginning, but then graduated to something bigger, this.

The villain advanced closer, and the hero instinctively took a few steps back, alarmed, heart hammering.

“Isn’t it obvious?” the villain mused, and raised a sensuous brow.

All of a sudden the hero’s mouth felt dry, unable to speak. They took another step back, just for the villain to mimick the gesture.

The both of them kept on, until the hero’s back hit the wall.

The villain stood in front of them, tall and beautiful and generally deadly. They rested both hands on either side of the hero’s head, blocking them any possible paths of escape.

The sight before the hero’s eyes was dazzling, like looking at the sun. Too big, too bright.

“You look lovely, blushing like that.” the villain purred, cupping the hero’s burning cheek oh so gently. “It makes me wonder, really, how exquisite you’d look like as a disheveled and hot mess on my bed.” their eyes became half-lidded, dark and rich with a glint of pure admiration.

The hero flinched at the caress of the villain’s smooth hand. Soft, yet hypnotising. A deeper shade of red crept upon their features.

The villain never failed to make the hero’s stomach pool with heat.

“You wouldn’t even get the chance.” the hero choked, breath hitching.

Their stomach lurked again with the same sting of hots when they heard the villain’s amused giggle. “Oh, I wouldn’t be so sure, dear.” the villain crooned, gaze voluptuous. “I don’t need to take you by force. I can make you give yourself to me.”

“Persuasive are we?”

“Perhaps.” the villain said, “Perhaps not. It’s your choice. You’re responsible for your own actions anyway.”

The hero glared at them, at their audacity. How could they say something like that while they were clearly messing with the hero’s mind?

“You’re the one who’s enticing me!”

“And you like it,” the villain replied, tilting their head attractively, “don’t you, darling?”

The hero snarled, but they did like it, and they hated themselves for that. They hated themselves for being so predictable and unable to even pretend they weren’t affected by the villain’s temptation skills.

The hero suddenly gasped at the villain’s hand snaking up their arm and to their hair, gingerly stroking it. “Touchy touchy.” they chuckled, charmingly so.

“S–stop. God damn it– stop!” the hero rasped.

“Now now, little hero, don’t be so rude. Aggression doesn’t suit you.”

The hero tried to snarl, to show as much ferocity they could master, but it only made the villain laugh.

They felt small, ridiculous, ashamed. As if they were nothing but a small toy to play with and discard when not needed anymore. It wasn’t fair. This wasn’t fair. The villain wasn’t fair.

The villain let out a yelp of pain at the harsh kick they received to their stomach.

The hero fled. They decided that they’d make sure to be prepared next time they meet the villain.

The hero and the villain often get into very bloody and violent fights. One evening, the hero is stunned to find a dinner invitation sent by the villain posted through their door.

— Concept/ Prompt written by @morallygreyprompts.

──────⊱◈◈◈⊰──────

The hero and the villain were sitting across each other on the dinner table.

The silence stretched awful between them; the hero was looking literally at every single angle of the room except of the villain, and the latter was playing with a spoon, twirling circles in the cup of water and creating small tornadoes in it out of boredom.

The thing was; the hero and the villain hated each other to the bones. It was obvious from all of the bloodbath and the brutal fights they usually had. A punch to the face, a kick to the stomach causing them to vomit blood, the way one of them grasps the other’s throat tightly with their nails digging in, the manner they hurl and throw each other across places, and more. They both always returned home all bloody and battered and with so much injuries all over their bodies, which were usually left like that for months until they healed.

The hero had surely never expected the villain to actually invite them over for dinner. They didn’t know. They didn’t believe this. Was this a trick? A trap to spy and gain information? A manipulation tactic to try and persuade the hero to join their side?

Or worse; a threat, or perhaps to humiliate or frame them for something nefarious?

The hero didn’t understand any of this. So many questions in their head at the moment, and they had to speak and cut the eerie silence between them for answers for their screaming and begging curiosity.

“So, why did you invite me over for dinner?” they asked, voice stern. The villain abruptly stopped playing with their spoon and immediately shifted their gaze to look at the hero, who themself was looking back at them. They straightened, “I just wanted to have a proper moment with you.”

Proper moment? What did they mean?

“I am sorry, but I didn’t quite catch your meaning.” the hero pressed, eyes narrowing as they raised an eyebrow in suspicion.

“I mean that I want to refresh our relationship. I wanted to start over again. I wanted a more proper and cordial relationship with you.”

“Cordial?” the hero scoffed, “Feeling guilty for being such a bloody prick in our fights, I guess?” they chuckled.

The villain looked away in what seemed like embarrassment for a short moment and looked back again, “Yes, actually.” they affirmed, voice still stern.

The hero’s expression shifted to perplexity. Really? The villain? Feeling guilty? It was laughable.

“I’ve noticed just recently how terrible the impacts of our fights had on us. The violence is overwhelming. I always get home with either a huge scratch all the way up to my chest, a broken rib, or even a sour throat from being strangled.” the villain paused shortly, “It’s.. you too. I’ve seen how possibly fatal your bruises were. Sometimes you were just so tired, you almost collapsed to the ground. Even in our next meetings, I could see the still bleeding wounds I gave you.”

The hero stared at them, gaze intent.

“We need to stop. It’s terrible for both our healths. Who knows, maybe one day one of us would die. It’s possible, and the chance of it is pretty high. We shouldn’t take such risks; maybe I’m an atrocious person, who committed a huge list of various sins and misdeeds, but I am not the type to slaughter.” the villain paused again and fixed their eyes with the hero’s, forbidding them from looking away. “We need to open our eyes and realise the danger our hatred for each other is putting us under. We need to control it — no — put an end to it. [Hero], we need to restart anew, I know this sounds insane — and believe me, I didn’t like at first, but I had to accept it. You also must accept it.”

The hero fell silent again, wide-eyed. They couldn’t believe what they were hearing. More questions and thoughts invaded their mind. The villain was.. asking for peace? To stop this hate and violence?

This. Was. Unbelievable.

The hero didn’t know since when the villain was capable of rationality or considerate enough to understand the seriousness of situations and fix them. The hero thought the villain was someone murderous and destructive, unfeeling of other people’s pain and suffering. They didn’t know they had limits, or a moral compass.

“So, in conclusion, this dinner is for the purpose of starting a more convenient relationship?” the hero asked, looking softer now.

The villain simply nodded. “And there is no other solution for this problem except of this one.”

“Why don’t we just control our hate around each other?”

“Do you really think that we would be able to do that? I bet you are dying to punch me again for the explanation right now.”

Well, yes, the villain was right.

And yes, the hero did feel like punching them at the moment. But for some reason they couldn’t, the villain was just being so patient and wise and level-headed.

The hero swallowed, “Well if that’s how you want it to be. Then be it.”

The villain smiled, not the sort of evil and sinister smirk. No, it was a pleasant one. They offered their hand to the hero, requesting to fix the desk they were creating.

The hero looked at the villain’s hand and slowly reached for it, accepting the offer.

Things hadn’t been the same since then.

Not a prompt.

“[Hero], last night, you were unhinged. You were like some desperate, howling demon.” muttered the villain softly, covering their upper body with the blanket as they stared up at the hero shyly. “You frightened me..”

The hero looked back at them, gaze intent.

“Do it again.” the villain suddenly croaked, raising an eyebrow, curling their lips into a sensuous smirk, their innocent, vulnerable gaze capsizing into something dark and full of lust.

The hero shuddered at the sudden change of the villain’s mood.

[inkygemuwu]

“Let me take you on a trip in the ocean of the night and show you the secrets of the stars.”

“Wait.” the villain blurted, taken aback, “you’re seriously letting me go? Even after I robbed a bank?”

“You did it for your kittens. They were starving and you didn’t have the money to afford their food.” the hero said, matter-of-factly. Their smile was eeriely sunny, like they weren’t beating the villain and pinning them to the ground just thirty seconds ago.

“Yes, but... I robbed a bank.” the villain looked at the hero, wide-eyed, as though they weren’t aware of how nefarious the villain’s actions were. “Isn’t that against the law? Isn’t that the kind of deeds you’re supposed to arrest me for?”

“Darling.” the hero countered, “Cats are a legitimate excuse for criminal offence, so don’t get worked up. Anyone would do anything to provide those little fluffy and endearing creatures a comfortable life. I mean— seriously!” the hero made a gesture with their hand, “Who doesn’t love cats?”

The villain was at a loss of words.

Wow, I didn’t know angels could have diarrhea.

“How?” asked the succubus incredulously. “How are you resisting me? How are you not affected by my charms?”

“I am affected by your charms.” the painter corrected as he surveyed the succubus, looking placid. “Just not the way... you’re supposed to affect me.”

“What do you mean? Every man whom lays eyes upon me was entranced by me; my beauty, my grace, my voice, my everything.” said the succubus earnestly, like it was something impossible to happen for a man to not succumb to her appeal. “What are you?” she asked.

“Just a guy who likes painting.” he said as he casually buried his hands in his pockets, giving the succubus an innocent smile. “Just because I am immune to your kind doesn’t mean I am not human.”

The succubus studied him, gaze intent. “What do you mean, you’re affected by me but not in the way you’re supposed to?”

“What I meant is that I am attracted to you artistically, not sensually or romantically like you expected. You thought I am just a random everyday man – which is actually true, there’s nothing special about me anyways – but it turns out that Oops – you somehow failed to engross me the way you intended, the way you, as a succubus, was made to.” he explained, his smile turned to a toothy grin, not cruel, just shiny and amused.

“What?! That makes no sense— Are you mocking me?” the succubus pressed in an accusatory voice, still not believing what she was hearing.

“I’m not. Come on, don’t get offended so easily, you’re still quite beautiful.” the painter assured, and it sounded strangely sincere.

The succubus stared at him, speechless, wide-eyed.

“Now,” the painter started, taking his brush from the table beside, where his art supplies laid. “Would you allow me to paint you?”

“Wha–.... Why.. Why did you kill them?!”

“Don’t worry,” the other said, “It’s nothing personal.”

“.. Nothing personal? Nothing personal?! I could probably understand why you would kill them if it were personal!”

“Oh, come on!” the assassin complained, “How am I supposed to survive and pay bills then?”

The hero let out a groan as they slowly and painfully flattered their tired eyes open.

Their vision was foggy and spiralling. They couldn’t think straight, and weren’t excatly in their full senses.

A blurry figure covered their view, and as they slowly returned to full consciousness, the figure gradually revealed a far too familiar silhouette that the hero knew too well.

“Rise and shine, sleeping beauty.” the villain crooned, an all-teeth grin on their face.

The hero abruptly tried to flop, to scramble, only to look down at what was preventing them from doing that to realise they were tied to a chair. Their eyes widened.

“What the–”

“Now, now, little here. Don’t try to do anything.” the villain said, eyes glinting with amusement at the hero’s useless attempts to break free. “I did a good job tying you, because it looks like you’re too reckless for your own good.” the villain tut-tutted, “I should teach you better.”

“What the hell do you want from me? What is the meaning of this?!” the hero spat.

“Watch what comes out of your mouth, darling. I’m sure you don’t want to face any consequences for being too naughty.” the villain said with a soft yet dangerous tone. As much as they seemed to have fun with the hero’s current stew, they surely weren’t playing around.

How did the hero get in here in the first place? They remembered they were fighting the villain in a rooftop, and then the villain, somehow, managed to tackle them down on the ground and defeat them. And then everything went black.

But how did it happen? The hero was supposed to be strong, agile, swift with their movement, quick to think. They received excellent training from their agency. So how did the villain manage to get them under their custody?

The villain let out a breathy, chilling laugh that ran shivers down the hero’s spine, like they knew exactly what was going on in the hero’s mind, like their thoughts too clear and bare to the villain’s serpentine gaze.

“How.. how did you get me in here?”

“Oh, you poor thing.” the villain said, “The strong and mighty hero whom no criminal stands a chance against is lost and is having a crisis on how a simple, typical and common villain like myself managed to crash them. How adorable.” the villain gave a mockingly pitying look at the hero, and continued laughing.

The hero was having none of this. The villain was foreshadowing something the hero is dying to know by making it seem like some stupid joke. Like the hero was a joke.

“Stop laughing! What do you want from me?!”

The villain’s laughter finally faded away, as they let out an exhilarated, long sigh. They looked at the hero, hilary still dancing on their countenance, as they slowly leaned closer to the hero’s face. Their warm hands rested on the other’s cold ones.

“Oh, hero.” they started, voice warm and honeyed, like some sumptuous and soft fabric, “I could eat you up. After all, you’re my favourite hero.” the villain murmured, caressing the hero’s bruised chin. “Aren’t you?”

Some confusing and funny things fluttered inside the hero’s stomach, a small blush crept onto their cheeks. They didn’t look like they knew what to do with the situation they got themselves into for whatever reason. Having the villain close, too close for their comfort.

“For your information, I ran out of ideas when you got me cornered back then, when we were fighting. I couldn’t do anything but to mess with you.” the villain explained, their eyes twinkling, “But God, I must admit I have never ever thought in my entire life that tactic even had the tiniest chance to work. You were so distracted, so perplexed. You looked exquisite when you were confused. It gave me.. a wave of power and superiority over you. After all, that’s how you got yourself in here.” a feline smirk engraved on the villain’s face, leaning closer to the hero’s, and pecked them on their cheek.

They slowly got back up, and sashayed their way to the door.

“I currently haven’t decided what we’ll do. But for now, be a good boy/ girl and don’t cause trouble. I’d be sad if I knew my little hero hurt themself. Ciao.” and they were out, leaving the hero in a blushing mess as the embarrassing memories of what happened came all crashing at them.

The villain smiled in triumph.

This was certainly going to be so much fun. The villain made sure of it.

“Choose a card.”

“Eeerr.. Th-the Joker?” the hero replied reluctantly.

The magician’s maniacal laugh echoed throughout the stage.

“What?!” the hero spat, more agitatedly than angrily.

“Oh, darling.” the villain purred, “We’re going to have soooo much fun.” they said, their face darkening, narrowed eyes flickered wicked with malice. They flushed their trademark devilish grin.

The hero’s face went aghast. They knew that smile way too well.

It only meant one thing; they fell into the magician’s trap, yet again.

[inkygemuwu]

Could you do a sick male villain with female caretaker (either civilian or hero)

I’ve only realised my mistake after I read the ask one more time before I was about to post this. It was supposed to be a sick villain, but I accidently made it an injured one instead. I apologise for such a mistake. I hope it won’t happen again, and I hope you still enjoyed this version anyways.

Trigger Warning · Blood

──────⊱◈◈◈⊰──────

The villain winced as the tissue dabbed against bloody wounds on his skin, letting out a groan in pain and shifting slightly.

“Stay still, I’m trying to clean your wounds.” the civilian said, continuing to mop off the blood, softer now not to hurt him again.

The villain scoffed. “How do you expect me to remain still while my wounds burn?”

“It’s not my fault that your wounds are so bad I have to use alcohol to clean them up so they won’t get infected. You’re the one who’s reckless and got himself in trouble.” the civilian looked serious, her forbidding gaze leaving no room for argument.

The villain scoffed again, amused. He liked that aloof attitude the civilian gave him every time he came to her all battered and hurting. He liked t way she would remain silent and focused on treating his wounds, the way her deft hands artfully wrapped bandages around his battered limbs, the way she would frequently scold him for being thoughtless and always throwing himself in trouble.

He knew that there is secretly a soft and caring self under the cold surface to her. And he never missed a chance to tease her about it.

“Well, if you think I am so reckless, and can’t be relied on preventing myself from getting hurt, why do you always bother to help me everytime?” the villain started, tone smug.

“I can’t just leave you to bleed ’till you die. Someone must heal you.” the civilian answered, now adding more alcohol to a clean part of the tissue, and continued dabbing gently on the villain’s skin, pressing softly. She wasn’t going to listen to the villain complain about how painful the alcohol feels on his open bruises for the next ten minutes.

“Aww, feeling bad for the big bad guy? How sweet of you.” he giggled in amusement.

“I am just doing what is moral; offer help when I spot an injured person. It would be apathetic of me not to do that.” the civilian spoke, matter–of–factly. “I’m not doing this for you. I just.. don’t like seeing others hurt. Even if they were bad people.”

For the first time since the villain entered her house and she brought her first aid kit to start her treatment, still looking as serious as usual, she moved her gaze up to look at the villain, who still had that annoying – yet charming – smile on his face. But the villain saw something else, much softer, in the glint of her eyes. “Your criminal acts are none of my business. I am just here to help you not die because I am a moral and sympathetic person who takes other people’s well–being in consideration.”

“Are you sure about that? Because it sounds as though you are looking for as many excuses as possible to not show that you actually like me.” there was no hiding the smirk in his tone now.

“You’re getting a lot cockier than usual.” the civilian said, mimicking the villain’s smirk, trying her best to look as confident as possible.

“And you like it.” the villain pressed, ”you’ve never tried to shut me up whenever I said a cheeky remark.”

“That’s because I keep all of my concentration on treating your wounds correctly, and your comments would only distract me and ruin my job.”

“You find me distracting?”

“Your stupid comments, not you. And not in that way.” a light pink tint of blush appeared on the civilian’s face, which the villain found pretty cute.

“I’m sure you do like me, you’re just in denial.” the villain said, smiling triumphantly, only to let out a yelp in pain as the civilian tapped on one of his wounds harshly, alcohol burning the bruised skin.

It was the civilian’s turn to scoff now. “Don’t bet on it. You just keep telling that to yourself because you like seeing me get ‘flustered’.” the civilian said.

It was true. The civilian liked the villain. The villain could tell from the dismay and concern he saw in her eyes once she laid her eyes on his damaged body every time he stopped at her doorstep. She looked at him like he lost his limbs. The way she would cut whatever she was doing at that moment, no matter how important it is, to get him treated as soon as possible.

It was intoxicating.

Even the scolding he’d get from her, which she makes sure is just nothing but her being serious, showed just how much worried the civilian is for the villain. And how frustrated and troubled she would get whenever he got injured. It even got more intense since the villain started to come to her more often than he should.

It concerned her how he had no sense of self–care or self–perseverance. There was no doubt that he could actually get himself killed if he just wasn’t working on being more careful.

... Well.. He didn’t simply always get in trouble because he was overconfident and arrogant about himself being able to make it on his own.

He may or may not got himself in trouble every so often just so he could see his precious civilian caretaker who happened to have magical hands that could heal any injuries.

“Ah, now all of the blood is finally cleaned up.” the civilian said, putting the tissue that was soaked in a mixture of blood and alcohol aside to start wrapping bandages on the villain’s side.

Silence fell upon both of them for a while, until the villain decided to speak.

“You know,” the villain started, suddenly holding the civilian’s hand. He leaned a little closer, ”I wouldn’t mind you touching me even when.. I’m not injured.” he gazed at her, eyes narrowed and darkened.

“Oh, shut up.” the civilian said, trying to ignore the flirty villain laying on her bed and trying to focus on bandaging him, looking away so he wouldn’t be able to see her blush.

“Don’t think I didn’t notice you blushing.” the villain teased, the same annoying smirk still plastered onto his face. He wasn’t going to miss this chance to finally break her cold and emotionless exterior.
