MAN, do I have a fucking IDEA!
I don’t know if I should attempt it, or look for someone taking requests, ‘cuz god do I wanna write it, but also I wanna see what someone else does with it.
Ok. It’s not, like, THAT, unique, you know? In fact, it’s pretty much an “inspired by a movie” fic. I need to get it off my chest.
So basically! Vigilante as the Invisible Man.
(rated Mature below cut, for implied smut + serious stalker behavior from Adrian)
(also, shit, I did not mean to write that much 😅)
Vig is already stalking Reader. I’m talking he knows their schedule better than them, breaks into their home when they’re not there and steals their clothes and stuff like that. THEN the team gets a mission to take out the man originally responsible for creating the Invisibility tech, ‘cuz he’s about to sell that shit and the government does not want that. So the team succeeds but doesn’t realize there’s a second device, only Vig notices and he secretly takes it.
He tests it out while on patrol but he doesn’t like it for vigilante stuff, killing an unsuspecting person just isn’t as satisfying. But before he tells the others and turns it over, he comes up with a better use for it!
He uses the invisibility tech to sneak into Reader’s house while they’re home, something he’s never done before! He sits with them while they watch tv, eat dinner. 100% sneaks into the bathroom while they’re taking a shower, but the steam from the shower makes the tech glitch a bit so he quickly exits that and knows better now.
Over the next few weeks, he gets bolder and bolder and by spending time physically near Reader, his mind starts to conflate that as an actual relationship. He even kills the random hook up Reader had out of jealously and to make sure they don’t go back to that guy as a regular booty call. NOW he has to get the image of someone else touching Reader and replace it with him touching them!
So he starts to touch them first while they’re asleep. Gentle strokes of their hair, barely grazing their clothes before he moves onto more intimate touching. And after a few days Reader is going crazy (maybe mad horny too), and is wondering if their dreams are just suddenly very hyper realistic or if they’re being haunted by horny and pervy ghost.
Then he even starts to touch them while they’re awake! Just gently brushing against them while they’re walking around the house, he stands behind them while they’re cooking and smells their hair and breathes on their neck.
Now Reader definitely thinks they’re going crazy, because they’re definitely alone and even when they check their security cameras (only pointed at the front door and back door), there’s no way anyone has broken in.
At this point, Adrian needs more, he even goes so far as to grope them while they’re asleep! Which wakes them up and they flail around, looking for what touched them, and manages to hit him once. Then they rush to turn on the light and look for what they touched, but he rolls under the bed and keeps quiet long enough for them to convince themselves that it must have just been their imagination.
Reader starts leaving sand by doors and around their bed, thinking if someone is in their house, then they’d leave footprints! But since Adrian sees them do this, he’s always in the room with them when they put down their little lines.
One day, Reader walks into Fennel Fields while he’s working and when they act like they don’t know him (they don’t, Adrian!), it shocks him back into reality for a second. But he regains his composure and starts talking to them, and since he knows everything about them, he easily steers the conversation to one in which Reader is interested in. He actually manages to get their number and a date!
On the date, again Adrian seems pretty much perfect to Reader, and at the end of the date they ask to go to his place. He agrees and post sex their just talking and mention that they think there’s a ghost at their place. Adrian listens to them recount everything that’s happened and realizes he’s been scaring them the whole time! So he offers to let them stay at his place whenever they want (and waggles his eyebrows to suggest more sexy times whenever they want too), so that they feel better/safer than at home.
It works! Eventually Reader moves in with Adrian, and since no more ghost stuff happens, assumes that their old place really WAS haunted!
And now Adrain is in a perfect relationship! He still keeps the invisibility tech, just in case he needs to follow them for some reason though...which they accidently stumble across some time later and as they stare at a mirror, to see they give no reflection, it suddenly dawns on them...
