Finally someone who writes for Prototype 😭 more Prototype fics are seriously needed. Can I ask for Romantic Yandere headcanons? Can you do both P1 and P2 Alex Mercer and their differences? They are super different personality wise and in their motives. So how would that extend to their SO? Specifically with a reader that's not an evolved?
Pairing(s): Alex Mercer x Gender Neutral!Reader Warning(s): Yandere behaviours, (just in case), mention(s) of kidnapping, abusive dynamics, Dr. Alexander J. Mercer is his own warning. Dr. Alexander J. Mercer is my version of "Bill Goldberg".
Note(s): Gifs are not mine and were found on Pinterest. Probably ooc, idk.
Literally jumped when I got this ask because I've been ITCHING to write Alex. Also I feel like it's very obvious who I liked writing about more. Hope you enjoy!
[PROTOTYPE] ⋆˙⟡
.✦ ݁˖ You must've been someone very important to Alexander. A past colleague, a fling that he never truly forgot, or even just a friend.
.✦ ݁˖ At first, Alex is... curious. He wants to figure out why you're so important and why he feels this way towards you. In some way, he thinks it's normal to feel what he feels towards you.
.✦ ݁˖ This is what love feels like, right? It's supposed to feel like this, right?
.✦ ݁˖ He wouldn't kidnap you or do anything against your will, but he can just come off as a little overprotective/overbearing. He has pure intentions - all he wants to do is protect you and keep you happy - but his execution is poor... so he tends to keep tabs on you and unconsciously seek you out occasionally.
"Just to check up on you", he tells himself for the fourth time that day.
.✦ ݁˖ The need to be around you ends up with him turning into a stranger on the street just to watch you go about your day. His stalking gets worse over time because of this.
.✦ ݁˖ Due to be so vicious about your safety, he's not afraid to get bloody. That's actually something in common he has with P2 Alex.
.✦ ݁˖ He's on the fence of being open towards you, about his behaviours, his "condition", how he feels towards you. It all comes back around to what would make you feel happiest, so he ends up not telling you anything. After all, ignorance is bliss.
.✦ ݁˖ Fighting back against P1 Alex confuses him. Can't you see he's just protecting you?
.✦ ݁˖ Overall his curiosity towards you is what draws him in. Then the questions pour in his head, why does he feel this way to you? Why not anyone else? And then he quickly realises he's almost followed you home twice.
How he's different to P2 Alex ⋆˙⟡
.✦ ݁˖ He's so gentle. There's a softness that neither P2 Alex and Dr. Alexander don't possess. He knows about your human fragility, he doesn't want to hurt you - physically or emotionally.
.✦ ݁˖ He likes that you're human. It's more about him wanting to see the good in humanity through you, than about power dynamics.
[PROTOTYPE 2] ⋆˙⟡
Buckle up, this is a bumpy ride. WHERE do I even start with him?
.✦ ݁˖ Have you ever asked yourself if you deserve a peaceful life? Do you like being able to walk out of your apartment ignorant to watching eyes? If the answer is "no", then... I honestly have no idea where I was going with this, just know he's the "no" answer. P2 Alex is the worst as a yandere.
.✦ ݁˖ God help you if you caught his eye.
.✦ ݁˖ He spies on you. A lot. Even more than P1 Alex. Shapeshifting is so very nifty for stalking, just be prepared for paranoia to engulf your life. Friends? Family? Lovers? I mean, you can't be sure if he's wearing their skin that day... so just cut them all off! Go on, just to be safe!
.✦ ݁˖ He's totally not tapped into your phone, logging everything you do and everywhere you go!
.✦ ݁˖ He'll wear you down into dust before he evens kidnaps you. Y'know what? He might not even have to do that. He'll position himself as your saving grace after secretly tormenting you. A white knight saving you from this "unknowable thing" that's been haunting you, even if he's lying straight to your face.
.✦ ݁˖ He locks his own sister in a bank vault, he'll do the same with you if you're not willing after everything he does (though he might find it funny at how stubborn you are). He'll mock, he'll threaten, he'll terrorise.
.✦ ݁˖ You fighting back is like watching a tiny pet trying to play fight. He'll humour you but it's not really a fair fight when it's him of all people.
.✦ ݁˖ He does get jealous. Very jealous. Um... but literally what are you going to do about it? Blood? What blood? He can rip someone in half or he can just absorb them, and he doesn't really care about causalities.
.✦ ݁˖ His willingness to get bloody is solely out of either jealous or possessiveness. P1 Alex was at least getting bloody on the basis of "I'm protecting them".
.✦ ݁˖ Like P1 Alex, he acknowledges your human fragility... but that's the only similarity they have. He's disgusted by your... humanity, so he'd turn you into an evolved. You don't get an option, and you never will.
.✦ ݁˖ You're going to be part of his new race, and you're going to like it god dammit! If he has to drag you kicking and screaming, so be it!
.✦ ݁˖ I mean, if you are willing... then of course he'll help you control your newfound abilities! All you had to do was just ask!
.✦ ݁˖ Just be good and stay in line.
.✦ ݁˖ Or maybe just latch yourself onto Dana until Heller comes along and then change your name, face, move to another country, don't look back, and keep moving until you die.
How he's different to P1 Alex ⋆˙⟡
.✦ ݁˖ He's worse, he's in your walls, and he really doesn't care if you breakdown.
.✦ ݁˖ While P1 Alex defends his behaviours internally by excusing them as "protection" to keep you happy, P2 Alex just doesn't care about his behaviours. You caught his eye, what more can he say?
.✦ ݁˖ He hates your humanity. He sees turning you into an evolved as a way of "improving" you, or at least making you into how he sees you.
.✦ ݁˖ Willing or unwilling, you'll be with him. Forever.
Post nut clarity hits me like a freight train and I hate that I wrote this.
Since we've already discussed how Alex "cares" for James, why not discuss how he treats his other infected (evolved)?
My guess is it's similar to what's shown in the video.
Here's the text:
Is this the beginning of a difficult life again? I don't want!
I don't care what you want. As long as you have a contract with me, your soul, heart, and ASS BELONG to ME.
Why do you need an ass?
FUCK YOU for asking superfluous questions.
PS: Some of the joke or context may have changed due to translation.
It's ironic that this is my first video in CapCut.
