Cassandra Cain x male vigilante s/o
S/o and Cassandra first met on a rainy night in Gotham when she spotted him confronting a group of thugs who broke into a jewelry store during one of her patrols.
Reading s/o’s body movement, Cassandra could tell he had no intentions of killing the criminals, so she just watched quietly as he took them out effortlessly one by one.
After taking out the thugs, s/o locks eyes with Cassandra as police sirens are heard in the distance.
No words are exchanged between the two as s/o leaves the scene, Cassandra deciding to get some information about him from Oracle later on due to her curiosity.
“I did some research on that guy you saw, his name is s/o, a relatively new hero that’s been making things a lot easier for Gotham’s police by dealing with the increase of crime that’s been happening lately. Why are you so curious about him anyway Cass?”
“Don’t know.”
She says simply, which the previous Batgirl doesn’t question.
After their initial meeting, s/o and Cassandra had run ins with each other quite often since then, the two even working together on several occasions.
During their latest encounter, s/o speaks to her for the first time.
“Judging by your costume, you must work with Batman right?”
She simply nods as he smiles.
“Thought so. He’s the best hero this city has, despite what some talking heads on tv might say. I’ve seen you in action Batgirl, and you’re pretty damn awesome.”
Cassandra blushes slightly from s/o’s words, not that he can tell because of her mask.
“Well, I look forward to seeing you again.”
S/o goes to leave but Cassandra grabs his hand and does her best to speak.
“No! Come.”
Understanding what she means, s/o follows her as she brings him to Batman, causing him to get a bit starstruck upon meeting the Dark Knight.
“I’ve been keeping tabs on you for quite a while s/o. I want you and Batgirl to be partners.
He says, shocking the two adolescent vigilantes.
“Really?! I’ve never worked with anyone before, but I guess I wouldn’t mind that, how about you Batgirl?”
She gives a curt nod, hiding her excitement extremely well.
“Good. I think you both will work well together.”
What the two don’t know is that this whole thing was Oracle’s idea because she knew Cassandra has a crush on s/o.
Now officially partners, s/o and Cassandra began developing a close bond, even leading to her showing him her face for the first time.
“W-wow, you’re so…beautiful.”
S/o says with a blush, causing his partner’s face to heat up as well.
“T-that…nice.”
She says as the two awkwardly turn away from each other before resuming the task that Batman gave them.
Very shortly after becoming partners, the two quickly formed a friendship and do things outside of crime fighting, including watching movies, practicing martial arts, and just doing regular teenager things.
S/o even helped Oracle with teaching Cassandra how to speak verbally while being incredibly understanding and patient with her, causing the girl’s crush on him to grow even more.
In return, Cassandra does her best to try teaching s/o how to read people’s movements like she does, the key word there being ‘try’, but s/o manages to learn at least a few things nonetheless.
Not wanting Cassandra to be deprived of a normal teenage life, Oracle convinced her to tell s/o how she feels about him.
“I’ve seen the way he looks at you, I can tell he feels the same way about you Cassie, so don’t worry and just confess.”
Trusting her friend’s judgment, she tells s/o her feelings while on patrol with him.
“Hey.”
She mutters, catching s/o’s attention.
“What’s up Cass?”
Trying to formulate the right words to say, Cassandra looks at her crush before eventually speaking.
“S/o. L-love you.”
She tells him while making a heart shape with her hands to help s/o fully understand what she’s trying to express, which he thankfully does and proceeds to give her a warm smile.
“Cassie, I love you too, and I have for a while now.”
Overcome with happiness, she pulls him into a deep kiss, thus marking the beginning of her and s/o being a couple.
Now dating, not much has honestly changed between Cassandra and s/o, since they were already extremely close.
The only difference might be they’re both much more affectionate with each other.
Cassandra is incredibly touch starved due to her past, but luckily she has a boyfriend who will give her all the hugs, kisses, and words of affirmation that she deserves.
As a crime fighting duo, s/o and Cassandra will always have their lover’s back and won’t allow anyone to lay a hand on the other.
Upon learning about what Cassandra’s father David Cain put her through, s/o developed a seething hatred of the assassin.
“That evil bastard! I swear I have half a mind to hunt him down and-”
“No. Please.”
Cassandra looks at her boyfriend with pleading eyes.
“What?! But why?”
“He’ll kill you.”
She gently grabs s/o’s hands and shakes her head.
“If I lost you, life….lose meaning. Love you so….so much s/o”
She says while struggling to get the words out, causing s/o to calm down as he feels really touched by his girlfriend’s words.
“I love you too my beautiful bat, and as cheesy as it may sound, my life would be meaningless without you in it too.”
The two embrace, unaware Batman was listening in on them with an ever so small smile on his face.
While jealousy is pretty much nonexistent for s/o because he knows his girlfriend would never cheat due to her fierce loyalty to her loved ones, the same can’t be said for her.
Not that Cassandra doesn’t trust s/o, it’s just that she worries he might leave her one day for a girl he can actually have a conversation with, though s/o always tries to ease his girlfriend’s fears every time she gets jealous.
“Cass, there is no one I want to be with other than you. I love you for who you are, and that’s never going to change.”
Despite this, s/o can’t help but find it adorable whenever a girl approaches him and his girlfriend just hugs him tightly while uttering a single word.
“Mine.”
Cassandra’s best friend is Spoiler, who is the biggest supporter of her and s/o’s relationship.
“You too are so cute together! I wish I had a boyfriend like s/o. This may be a little out of left field, but would you mind sharing him with me Cass?”
She teases and jokes as the two’s faces turn beat red, causing her to laugh even more.
“Hah! I’m just messing with you guys! Seriously though, you make a great couple!”
“Thanks/thank you Stephanie.”
Both teens say to her with crimson blushes still present on their faces.
In the event s/o ever got hurt while fighting a villain, not even Batman can stop her from beating them to the point of near death.
“Batgirl! Stop!”
She does so just a moment away from delivering the killing blow, much to her shock and horror.
“N-no…”
Tears flow from her eyes as s/o embraces her and comforts her despite his injuries.
“Shh. It’s ok. You didn’t mean to go this far. You didn’t kill them, and that’s what’s important.”
Once the situation is dealt with, Cassandra just wraps her arms around her boyfriend and embraces him tightly, feeling blessed to have someone like s/o in her life.
During the period of time when Cassandra turned evil due to Deathstroke, s/o felt his heart shatter knowing the girl he loved was now a villain, but once she came back to her senses, he wasted no time forgiving his girlfriend, even when others aren’t quite so willing to welcome her back with open arms.
“I don’t care what the others say! I missed you so much Cass, and I’m glad I can hold you in my arms again!”
He tells her while hugging her tightly, even though she feels ashamed and disgusted at her actions during her time as a villain.
Later on when Cassandra leaves Gotham for Hong Kong and becomes the heroine Black Bat, s/o fully supports her decision and goes with her, much to his girlfriend’s appreciation.
“Thank you s/o.”
“Hmm? For what Cass?”
Sticking by me, even if it meant leaving your home.”
“You’re welcome. Home is where the heart is after all, and you should know by now my heart belongs with you. I love you so much Cass.”
She smiles and kisses him softly on the lips.
“I love you too s/o.”
Despite the struggles and challenges in her life, Cassandra knows that no matter what, her beloved vigilante s/o will always be there for her.
