#my thots and love for Telltale!Joker have led me to my no.1 BNHA husband: Twice

[stupid-sloot-headcanons]

Twice developing a crush on someone that snowballs into an obsession despite how much he tries to keep things healthy. Like yeah, he acknowledges that it's a little weird to have a little shrine of them in his apartment with pictures and little mementos here and there. But it's not harming anyone, right?

I'm just imagining him growing paranoid about Darling being in danger, either because of their association with him or just a vague sense of dread that something bad is going to happen to them. And he can't let that happen, he CAN'T. So he tries to "save" them because enough of his other voices and intrusive thoughts are insisting this is the right thing to do. And the instant he actually kidnaps them and has them knocked out in his lap in his apartment, the weight of what he's doing hits and he's just like "...I have made a HUGE mistake"

Like at no point while preparing for this--getting the chloroform to knock them out if they don't understand why he's helping them, staking out their place, arranging how to lie to their employer about why they're suddenly not coming in to work--did he stop and rationally think "Is this actually a good idea?" And at this point he knows he's crossed a line, and he can't bear to leave them so he's just gonna double down and be the nicest, most supportive and apologetic kidnapper ever. Like now he's made it so he CAN'T let them go because they could go to the police or a Hero. And hey, maybe over time he can explain things to them so they aren't so upset!

Imagine waking up in his bed, fully clothed but with your hair brushed and a face mask on, and he's in the middle of a Split. "Stupid, stupid, this was so fucking stupid! Now they're gonna hate me--no, no, they'll understand! They're so kind and sweet and patient with me, they'll listen--Who cares? Now we've got 'em all to ourselves like we always wanted--We can't own a person! We want to be free, so what right do we have in taking ____'s freedom? Ahhh, goddammit, shut up! Lemme think!"

And when he sees you're awake, he tries his best to calm down by shoving his mask on and winds up clinging to you and burying his face against you. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Please don't hate me, just let me...let me..." And you wind up either comforting him or you both just have a breakdown for a bit.
