when your best friend (future husband) is secretly a crime boss and he spoils you
Imagine streaming one night and then a jingle plays during your usual stream. Gold coins fall down the screen. You and your viewers are slack-jawed as you process what happened.
“Did–did someone send me 1000 dollars? Oh my God, you did. Who…” You adjust your position on your dining room chair and lean forward to read the username, “GlasStilettos, you are crazy, like insane. Thank you! But that’s too much…”
Then the next day, during lunch out with Jason.
“You’ve been quiet, doll, talk to me.”
“I have a thousand dollars.”
“Oh. I’m… sorry to hear that…?”
“Jay!” You smacked his bicep lightly.
“I’m failing to see how this is a problem."
“It’s a problem because it’s a thousand dollars.”
“What’s the big deal? You have a backer now.”
“Jason, it’s a thousand dollars, US dollars. I can’t keep that kind of money.”
“Yes, you can. Look,” he said, putting down his coffee to grab your hand, “whoever sent you that money must have really loved your stream. You’d be insulting them if you refused to accept it.”
“It’s a thousand dollars, Jay, money that someone earned and they gave it to me.”
“Exactly, they worked hard for it and they decided you deserve it, so accept it with pride. You made someone’s night and made some cash along the way.”
In other words, Prince of Gotham, Iceberg Lounge owner, crime boss Jason Todd spoiling his streamer childhood friend, but you don’t know that he’s rich.
A/N: At long last it has arrived! Not me waiting for my friend to get off the phone so we can go to the movie theaters and playing Tourner Dans Le Vide bye Indila on repeat. I fucking love that song. Ever since elementary french class. T-T Anyways, I read the last part and have a small idea. I’m going to hope that I can follow a slight character plot but also have character development for Y/n. This also seems like a popular storyline thing, so why not. Hope yall enjoy! (I feel like it might be slightly popular because of the fact of being able to relate to it. I want to write something to explain why I chose Hawks to be this Y/n’s partner instead of other comfort characters, but not yet.)

As always, if you struggle with anything like this, please seek help from a professional and let the people who care about you know. It won’t help if you don’t have anyone to help you and talk to. Please please please stay safe everybody.
✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* 🪶 *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧
You opened your eyes, unaware that you had even begun to close them. From the angle that Hawks held you within his arms, you had a clear view of his jawline. It was clenching and unclenching and a small part of you whispered that it was because he was uncomfortable with you being so close. You pulled your gaze away from his face to look at your hands clenching the fabric of his shirt. Then slowly, very slowly, you turned your gaze to the cityscape once again below you.
More lights flickered out as it got deeper into the night. Or was it early morning now? Eh. It didn’t really matter. That light feeling still made your chest warm and tight.
“Hey... Hawks?” You said softly. He made no move of hearing you. You let out a puff of air that tickled the skin on his neck, causing him to regard you. “Do you trust me?” You asked, turning his own words back onto him. He paused his flying to have you both just hovering up in the air.
“Of course, dove. Why?” He asked, his voice like his feathers. Soft and light, but the potential to turn into a hard edge.
“Drop me.” You said, your voice stern. You weren’t scared of dying. But it had you wondering if the stories you heard were true. Did people regret it when it was becoming too late? His arms tightened around your waist and back.
“What? Absolutely not. I’m not going to do that.” He said. Ah. There it was. That hard edge you knew his voice could form. You let go of his shirt to grab behind you onto his wrists.
You were so delicate when you looked at him like that. Normally someone being calm was good in his line of work. But the calmness that flickered in your dull eyes scared him. He tightened his hold again as he felt your fingers try to pry his hands away from you. He could feel your spine.
“Why not?” Your voice, even now when he was scared still sounded so beautiful and musical. He drew his brows together to regard you heavily.
“I’m not going to let you try to hurt yourself. Isn’t that clear already?” He asked. And despite his harsh sounding words, his tone was gentle. He watched a bitter smile fill your expression and felt that rush of fear again, matching with confusion.
“Stop being a hero and let me drop. I want to hear the rush of air.” You said. Hawks continued to flap his large wings before folding them against his back, still holding tightly onto you. The two of you fell quickly through the dark sky, and he kept his eyes on your face. He watched as the wind ripped tears from your eyes and a scream got caught in your throat. He watched as the tops of buildings started to appear above you and estimated how close the ground was to hitting his back. “Hawks-” You breathed and he could feel your body shaking. He let you both continue falling for a few more moments before his wings spread again, snapping you both back into the air a few feet. Then with several powerful wingbeats you both were standing on the cracked pavement of the sidewalk.
“That’s what falling feels like, chickadee.” He whispered to you. And he seemed to know that you didn’t want him to let go. He sank to the ground, still holding you as you sobbed into his shoulder. “There’s no relief behind it. Only groundless emptiness. No support. No one there. You can try to grab the air but it just rushes past you.”
“Stop.” You whimpered, but he kept going. And you knew he needed to.
“No dove. You don’t understand it. I don’t know what you’re going through. But the air and the ground aren’t going to solve any of it.” Then his voice went silent and he just held you. You knew he wanted to say more, and you both knew that you weren’t ready to hear it.
What he was doing was making you mad. But it also made more sense. He wanted to help you, and maybe this was the only way he could think of it. You didn’t notice your eyes closing, or your body slipping into an easy sleep for the first time in a while.
✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* 🪶 *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧
A/N: Sorry for the abrupt end and how short it is. I’m behind in some classes, so I have to get those done after the movies. So stay safe everyone! (I’m not gonna sleep tonight WHOOT WHOOT!)
Could you do the variants with a superhero reader who’s got like shapeshifting powers but stretched to like the max of what shapeshifting can be, like they can heal their wounds, create weapons from their body, increase their muscle density at will, kind of like Eve’s powers but instead of being able to change the atoms of everything except living beings they can only change their own body, I think also like her powers the reader’s powers would use up calories, so to defeat them (or kidnap them lol) you’d either have to tire them out, destroy their brain or figure out some kind of power dampening device so they can’t just change their shape and gtfo of there, and they’re functionally immortal cause they can just change their body to be younger whenever, or just alter their dna so they don’t age altogether.
If it’s not too much trouble, maybe they can also have slightly skewed morals, usually they won’t kill but if they think someone is too much of a threat or if they hurt someone they care about they get pretty violent, sometimes even prolonging the persons suffering more than they need to and while they won’t stand with their loved ones if they say, try to take over the entire earth for the Viltrum empire, they will given up the greater good if it means they’ll get seriously hurt or die.
(sorry if this doesn’t entirely make sense I’m running on like two hours of sleep typing this)
He’s going to take his time with you. No one has ever gotten his attention the way you have. You’re so strong! Not as strong as him, but enough to be a better playmate than that idiot Eve. You can heal yourself without needing to be half-dead, make rifles out of your own arms, withstand their hits–YOU ARE THE BEST.
NO GOGGLES, shiesty, sinister
You’re good, he’ll admit. Definitely more powerful than 90% of this planet’s defenders. Maybe he’ll actually have some fun before he takes your head.
mohawk, omni-mark, prisoner, full mask, maskless
What a nuisance. He didn’t come here to play. He’s on a mission. He didn’t have someone like you in his timeline, someone who actually forces him to put extra effort. Very well. He will fight you head on and take you as a prisoner. His empire is in need of breeding stock, and your genetics are just what they need.

Authors note:This is completely platonic as their kids and Y/N is like 16 but is also a eclipse kid. If you need their names glass kid is Curtis,Blonde boy is Steven and the girl is Debbie.
Extended: “Y/N!!!!” Hearing their name they turned their head to their door to see their three favorite kids born on the same day as them. “Yes you three?” Curtis climb onto the bed laying on their chest,Steven laying on their right side and Debbie on their left side. Y/N wrapped their arms around the kids a bit suspicious of the kids. “What did you do?” “Nothing~” “Debs,I know that voice..” “You’ll see!” Y/N being their babysitter and older sibling figure knew something was off so when they heard the TV say that the kid who bullied them was dead they chuckled. “Well do you like your gift?” “Yes,yes I do you three. How about cake? I’ll lie once again” “Yay cake!” The three kids jumped out their older friends bed and rushed down to the kitchen with Y/N not following not so far behind. Y/N never mind their murderous behavior as Y/N had them as well and never went away just pushed down until three kids were born on their birthday. You’d never see those three kids without their guardian far behind them as killers stick together until death.
