Your door bursts open with a large man in a bright red shirt and a bucket on his head, half-dragging an equally large, bearded man through the doorway. The bucketed man grunts as his boots skid against the floor. Adrian stumbles in beside them, one hand gripping the injured man’s jacket and the other trying not to knock over the small table by your entryway.
“Emergency!” Adrian announces cheerfully, gesturing grandly toward the man bleeding onto your rug. “He needs the super magic smooch!”
The bucket man stares. “The what?”
“She can heal people,” Adrian continues breathlessly, tossing his helmet onto the counter with a heavy thunk. “She has that granny ‘kiss it all better’ thing!”
The man squints. “Wait, wait. He has to make out with her to get healed up??”
“No!!! Chris, ew!” Adrian looks horrified, pointing at him. “She kisses your wounds! This one time I was stabbed straight through my stomach with a sword, and she kissed it, and it was gone in, like, two seconds!”
“Ah, like a granny!” Chris nods slowly. “I get it now.”
The man on the floor groans weakly. “Can we… maybe skip the story part?”
“Right, right,” Adrian nods, already dragging him deeper into the living area.
You gape at the scene before you. Three and a half months of taking care of Vigilante’s wounds should have prepared you for this, but what can you do?
Setting your panic aside, you quickly motion for them to follow you to the small med bay you’ve set up in your house. They wrestle the man (Adrian helpfully explains his name is John) onto the bed, but you can feel the vigilante sulking.
He hates this part: you healing other people. Every time he pictures it —you leaning over someone else, doing that gentle, careful thing you do, the way you always do for him— it makes something twist in his chest, and he gets this tick in his jaw. And now he finally gets to be here when you heal someone else. He tells himself it’s fine. Totally fine, even!
Still, he crosses his arms and looks away when you start. You know, out of respect.
But you usher him and Chris out of the room and back into the living area. “Give me about thirty minutes,” you say reassuringly.
The door closes, and his frown deepens.

Twenty minutes pass in relative silence. Chris and Adrian hover near the couch, fidgeting, when the front door swings open with a frustrated slam. Emilia storms in, arms crossed, frowning. “There was no fucking parking,” she huffs, dropping her keys on the counter.
Leota follows behind, shaking her head. “We had to park all the way down the hill. I swear, I’m not doing that again. My calves hurt.” She steps around the blood on the rug and sits on the couch near the door. “Harcourt, you’re gonna have to drive the van back up here. I’m not walking back down there-”
A sharp, pained shout echoes from behind the closed door.
“Some kiss, huh?” Chris mutters.
Adrian shrugs, trying to act unbothered. “It’s more of a technique thing,” he trails off, shuffling his foot against the wood floor.
A couple of minutes later, you open the door and wave them back in. John is sitting upright, an ice pack on his leg and the faint smell of mint in the air.
Emilia raises a brow.
“Icy-Hot,” you explain apologetically. “For the soreness. I ran out of Tylenol the other day.” You turn back to the large man on the bed. “Sorry again.”
John gives a tired thumbs-up, and Emilia nods. You smile and head down the hall to wash your hands, leaving the team to recoup with John.
“Dude,” he says, blinking. “Where that guy shot me? She rubbed some ointment and it’s just a bruise now! And she just held her hand on my leg for, like, a second, and it snapped back together!” He releases a soft, suffering sigh, massaging his shin. “Both of them.”
Adrian freezes mid-step. “…That’s weird.”
Chris looks at him. “Weird how?”
“Well… she always says she has to kiss it for it to work when it’s me.”
Chris blinks. Then his eyes widen. “Oh, man! She’s just been using her power as an excuse to kiss on your body!” He claps a hand on the vigilante’s shoulder with a sharp laugh.
Adrian furrows his brow. “That would explain the makeout sessions afterward, yeah.”
“Dude, WHAT?!” Chris laughs again in disbelief and yanks on Adrian’s shoulders, practically rattling him.
“Yeah!” Adrian laughs, then gets a serious look. “I mean, duh! If she’s gonna kiss me once, I should kiss her back twice. It’s the rule of thirds.”
Leota shakes her head and sighs. “That is not what that is.”
He blinks at her. “What? At least we’re both into it!”
“I can hear you, you know!” you call out from the bathroom, embarrassed at having been caught.
Adrian grins. “See? She’s into it.”

I LIVE- last week was just insane and I ran out of time to finish this. Figured I should probably make a proper banner tho and so, this now exists. Idk if I like the border or if I’m gonna keep it, but I wanted to add exactly what they were drinking into the design somewhere, idk we’ll see. This takes place sometime after the rooftop scene, but still before Hawks has been introduced to the rest of the League.
[immaculate concept sketch below cut]
