Wormman, the classic superhero. What are his powers? Uh…

they’re super secret! nobody but him needs to know!

(He doesn’t have any)

The great thing is, everyone believe he does actually have superpowers because the things he does manage to pull off? There's no way he could without them.

Evil Xisuma is the number one theorist when it comes to figuring out Wormman's power. Wormman is terrified of if and when Ex finds out the truth.

Evil X × Worm Man pls? (I've been thinking about this for the past day)

Evil X: Worm Man said he couldn’t tryst me as far as he could throw me. It turns out, he can throw me pretty far. What a way to fall- in love.

Worm: Look, I know you hate me, but- 

Ex: I don’t hate you! Why do you think I hate you? 

Worm: Because you’re always watching me, and you only talk to me in half-sentences, and you get all tense whenever I’m near you and oh wait no, you have a crush on me, don’t you?

EX was always used to doing his own killing, seeing as helscraft is so dangerous, kinda just came with territory. However seeing Worm man beat someone to a pulp for messing with HIS sidekick made EX a little terrified of the hero. (And also kinda in love like have you SEEN his muscles!!)

Just because Worm is friendly and cheerful doesn't mean he can't fight! If people underestimate him, then that's on them.

EX isn't going to admit he underestimated him. Oh boy, he isn't. Though he would like to get a bit closer to those muscles to prove how big they are.

For this prompt all I can think of is Wormman and E.X.-

Anyways Wormman was too pathetic to kill so E.X. Kisses him instead (no one is complaining)

It's an unspoken agreement between the villains, really. Hurting Wormman is basically kicking a puppy. He's pathetic. He hasn't hurt a single villain and not for lack of trying. They aren't convinced he even knows how to throw a punch.

E.X is just the one who took it one step further. He happened to come across Wormman as a civilian, smiling as he worked. It shouldn't have been a surprise that Wormman is the same as a civilian as he is a hero, but it's endearing. An endearing surprise.

So he puts on the flirt in and out of the suit. He learns about Wormman on a different level. The ins and outs of what makes him smile, what makes him laugh.

Maybe he's still a bit of a pathetic hero. But he's E.X's pathetic hero.

Ex's wings are small, stubby. very fluffy though, a beautiful shade of white like freshly fallen snow.

Worm Man coos at them (softly, of course) and offers to help preen. Since their wings ARE so small, Ex can't reach them on their back. Worm Man's fingers are blunt and careful, but not very skilled - wings are very new to them, after all. But they learn over time.

When Hels discovers Ex's wings, it's different. WM had been out of the picture for a while now. (Not for lack of trying - a situation out of both of their controls.) Hels finds Ex curled up, tucked in a corner of their room, soft sobs echoing around. Wings hurt when they aren't preened properly.

Hels tried to help, they really did. He just... he was different.

His fingers were thinner and much more calloused, fingernails weren't trimmed evenly enough (always catching on feathers) and often a bit too harsh. Ex was already hard enough for someone experienced, with the amount of fluff tightly packed together. It was nigh impossible for a clumsy beginner like Hels. It didn't help that Ex's wings were overly sensitive, any wrong move making them break into cries that only make the wings more flappy and hard to control.

But Hels tried, dammit.

And it was hard. FUCKING hard. More and more difficult every day.

But skills improve with practice.

And it got easier, overtime.

And eventually, with the help of some nail clippers and more that an ounce of determination, it was almost second nature. Just as easy as when WM did it.

It gets better.

They both still wish WM was with them. That he could've been the one guiding Hels, teaching him how to stroke through the feathers or how to tell which sheaths need gentle encouragement. Giving Ex kisses as a reward for sitting there so patiently. Hels is used to swinging a sword, not delicate work like this.

But for Ex, it's worth it. It's worth seeing Ex smiling and painfree. It's worth the way his wings flutter when Ex is happy. They're willing to learn for each other. Step by step.

Evil X is a voidwalker, yes, but they may have taken the feline thing a little too far and looks like a cat-hybrid (paws, ears, tail ((even if it’s very stubby)), etc.). Worm Man is the only who knows and has the privilege to be able to pet them, hear them purr, etc!!! - 🎶📂 anon

Though watching Ex slowly push a glass cup off the counter does get annoy when they are starting to run out of cup

Robots and humans aren't meant to love each other. Neither are clones, they're just experiments. Yet, Biffa and Xisuma make it work. And so do Wormman and Evil Xisuma.

It was later found out that if a robot developed a  conscious like Biffa did then they are capable of love and the clones are already clones of people so they know the emotions just not how to show them
