Pyrotechnics (Malevola x Prism)

(The quality is being gangbanged by Tumblr, so please bear with me omfg.)

I'm tired as HELL, but Malevola and Alice cuddling and smooching away really does ease my spirit.

I imagine they just came into the office's lunchroom after a successful morning of pretending like they didn't wake up in the same bed and leave from the same house. The two hours they've spent "away" from each other were spent on opposite sides of town putting out fires and fighting crime. Two problems solved, but two hours too many—thankfully, it's nothing a good squeeze and smooch can't fix!
