Werewolf!Boyfriend who wants to stay secure in your arms while he transforms under the full moon instead of being alone like always but he's scared he'll hurt you.
Werewolf!Boyfriend who you hold in your arms, petting his hair and assuring him nothing he could do would hurt you.
Werewolf!Boyfriend who clings to you when night falls and it begins, his bones and skin aching as he starts to pant.
Werewolf!Boyfriend who whines against you in pain as his body starts to shift, burying his head deeper against your lap as he mumbles about how its going. You tell him reassuring words as he grunts.
Werewolf!Boyfriend who grabs onto your arm for support as he feels fur start to sprout on him, trying not to dig his claws into you as he groans in pain, sharp fangs crowding his mouth.
Werewolf!Boyfriend who collapses on your lap fully transformed, tail thumping as you stroke his ears and tell him that you're still here for him.
đ700 words, smut/explicit sexual content(18+), riding, overstimulation(not really), mean praise, bad bodđ, etc.đ
His thighs were spread wide on the edge of the bed, heavy arms slung over the back of it like he had all the time in the world. His shirt was still half-on, chest hair visible under the stretched cotton, stomach soft and thick and smug where he sat watching you hesitate between his legs.
You were naked. Shaky. Already wrecked, and he hadnât even touched you in ten minutes.
âCâmon,â he said, voice rough with smoke and heat. âGet on.â
You hesitated. Your knees were weak, your thighs still trembling from the last round. And your stomach twisted â not from nerves, but from knowing how it would feel. You hated riding. It was too deep. Too sharp. It always made you feel like you couldnât breathe.
You didnât move.
He raised an eyebrow. âWhat, suddenly shy now? You took me like a good little mess earlier. Whatâs this act for?â
Your mouth opened, then closed. You glanced at his dick â already hard again, heavy and waiting, flushed and leaking against his stomach. Your body wanted it. But you shook your head.
"IâI donât like it like that," you said, barely audible. âIt feels... too much.â
He blinked. Then smiled.
Not soft.
Not sweet.
Just slow and mean.
âToo much, huh?â
You swallowed.
âThatâs why youâre gonna do it.â
He patted his thigh. âCome on. Be brave for me.â
You stepped forward, one knee on either side of his lap, hands braced on his chest. He was warm, his skin soft under your palms, his belly pressing into yours as you lined yourself up.
He didnât help you. Didnât hold your hips. Just sat there watching, his dick pulsing under you.
You sank down.
The stretch hit immediately â deep. Too deep. You gasped, legs locking as your body tried to reject the angle. It felt sharp, unbearable, like he was splitting you open from the inside.
Your nails dug into his chest. You shook.
âI know, baby,â he murmured, mocking and fond all at once. âI know itâs a lot.â
You tried to lift up, to ease off, but his hands shot to your hips, dragging you down the rest of the way in one thick, brutal stroke.
You choked.
âShhh,â he rasped, mouth at your ear now. âYouâre doinâ so fucking good for me.â
You whimpered, body overwhelmed â your hole fluttering, your dick or clit throbbing from the pressure of him everywhere.
He rolled his hips up into you once, hard.
You cried out, full-on now.
âThatâs it,â he groaned. âRide. Make me feel you squeeze.â
You moved â shaky and slow â dragging up, then back down. The burn was unreal. He hit every goddamn nerve. It made your head spin.
He licked his lips as he watched you bounce.
âLook at you,â he said, voice dragging. âDonât even like it and youâre still takinâ it. Still getting wet. Still fucking dripping on my dick.â
You cried out again, back arching.
âThatâs it. Take what I give you.â
He pulled you down into a kiss then â all spit and tongue, his beard scraping your chin, his breath hot and thick as he groaned into your mouth.
âYou like this,â he whispered against your lips. âYou hate it, and you still fuckinâ like it.â
You couldnât deny it. Couldnât stop. You were riding him faster now, clumsier, more desperate â chasing something even as tears pricked the corners of your eyes.
He grabbed your ass in both hands, forcing you to grind deeper.
âGonna come on my cock like this?â he growled. âWhile Iâm sittinâ here letting you do all the fuckinâ work?â
You whimpered â broken â and nodded, already spiraling.
âYeah,â he hissed. âCome on, sweetheart. Let it happen. You earned it.â
And you did. Loud and shuddering. Clenching around him while he held you down and rutted up into you once, twice, three timesâ
Then he came too, groaning low and mean as his cock twitched inside you, his arms wrapping tight around your waist to keep you there, right where he wanted you. Pinned, stuffed full, and completely overwhelmed.
His breath was hot at your throat. âSee?â he whispered. âYou can take anything I give you.â
"Oh god," you moaned as Shidou's cock brushed yours, his breath heavy on your neck. You felt his teeth sink into your flesh, a groan rumbling from his own throat as your body arched against his.
"Fuck." He growled, rutting harder against you. Precum coated both of your cocks, dripping down your rubbing shafts. He drew his hips back with a shuddering breath, and yours jerked up towards him.
You whimpered, fingers digging into his shoulders. Your feet struggled against the sheets, trying to find footing, as Shidou's pace sped up. Fuck, you couldn't wait for him to be inside of you.
"Being such a good boy," he huffed. "Hahh, you feel so good." he moaned into your ear.
"Ryuuuu-" You whined, hips lifting off the bed to meet his as your loins throbbed uncontrollably.
"Fuck, say my name just like that, slut." Shidou breathed. "God, you make me so pent up-"
Your nails dug into his bare skin, head lolling back as you felt bliss slowly overwhelm you, his cock throbbing against yours with each soaked brush.
But like imagine neighbor! Price, he knows your husband and isnât that big of a fan of him at all. Leaving you alone for days on end for âbusiness tripsâ. Price knew thatâs not what he was doing. Your husband was a damn junkie. Running up all you guys money on coke and bottles at clubs.
He had seen him while off duty at a club with Gaz and Nikolai. Blowing your money, the money he had spent without your knowledge, on strippers and the several bottles he had bought in the club.
Price being be good neighbor he was had told you. He felt bad when he saw how your heart practically shattered. You were tearing up and ended up crying into his chest. He brought you back into your house where he stayed with you the entire time. Your tears for your husband was soon replaced with tears for John as he had you splayed out on his lap.
âI know baby, I know. Feels good yeah?â
You could barely get your words out as he rubbed your clit for what seemed like forever while he had you propped up on his lap. Tears pouring down your cheeks as you felt your fourth orgasm hit you.
âSo good for me doll, letâs make sure you feel real nice now, yeah?..âđđ
I love the idea of dating Jason Todd as a somewhat sugar daddy sort of situation. He pays your rent, won't let you pay for anything when you are together. And he never says no to anything you could ask for if you ask him right after sex. There isn't enough ftm!reader sugar daddy fics/drabbles.
I think Jason would but I also think heâd be so lowkey about it
examples! Ëââź
âââ ââ âŸâ â âââ
You go out to a coffee shop and you sway back and forth as you try to decide if you want your regular or somethingâJason just holds your hand as he waits for you to finally blurt out what you want and before you can even think about the total that the barista announces, his card is pressed against the reader and the transaction had gone through.
âïœĄïŸâïžïœĄâïœĄ ïŸâŸ ïŸïœĄâ
Youâre looking over your finances for the monthâthey arenât necessarily bad they were just a little tight. Youâd probably have to put off your car maintenance for a while because rent and bills had to take priority. Jason bites into an apple as he peeks over your shoulder, looking at your current balance and your expected expensesâhe swallows before telling you not to worry about itâheâll cover your rent and bills, you should go get your car checked out. You try to argue, telling him you could at least split it, it wouldnât be fair on him to shoulder everything. He argues that it wouldnât be fair on you considering your salary differences (if you could consider his collections from a drug ring a salary)
You decide to split on percentage the next month. He still insists on paying the full rent (you tuck the $10 you theoretically owe him into his wallet every month).
(Also he looks at your car himself; how silly of you to think you would need to go to anybody else to fix a motor oil when your boyfriend could do it for you.)
âïœĄïŸâïžïœĄâïœĄ ïŸâŸ ïŸïœĄâ
You stumble into your apartment, exhausted after being awake for 20 hours straight and working some ungoldly shiftsâyou almost donât notice the extra pair of shoes sat by your doorâthe only reason you do is because they are shiny and new and too small to be Jasonâs. Your first thought should have been that Jason had invited somebody into the apartment while you were out but that was actually so far from your mind. In what world would Jason bring somebody back to your shared home?? His safe space?
Oh yeah, I bought you a new pair of shoes, he answers casually as you collapse on him. Something about noticing that your current shoes are falling apart so he just bought you the same pair, only with less holes. You mumble something that sounds like a âthanksâ and heâs mentioning something about going shopping for more if you didnât like them anymore but youâre already out like a light
âïœĄïŸâïžïœĄâïœĄ ïŸâŸ ïŸïœĄâ
â ftm specific âĄ
It often comes up during late night musings what your plans are for yourself in the future, especially when it came to transitioning. Youâd done some of it, but thereâs still so much more you want to doâyou muse about top surgery like itâs a distant dream and with the current state of your salary and the lack of trans healthcare around, it might as well be. Hope is what keeps you going, but you absently rub at your sternum as you quietly admit to Jason how much of a relief it would be for you when you finally get it. He cups your face, gently rubbing the circles under your eyes as he asks furthering questions, where you want it done, if you have a surgeon in mind yet, what kind of surgery would you want, where would you want to stay to recover.
You answer every questions, it makes it feel more real as you do.
He asks when you want it done and honestly? As soon as you have the funds.
He asks if he can cover it and your heart leaps.
You want to argue, say itâs an insane amount of money and heâd have to cover a lot more than just the surgery because youâd have to skip out on work and youâd have to travel and all that other stuff he might not be thinking about but heâs staring with such earnest eyes that everything dies in your throat. And you nod wordlessly because both of you would love nothing more than for you to feel comfortable in your own body. âĄ
âïœĄïŸâïžïœĄâïœĄ ïŸâŸ ïŸïœĄâ
uh,, tada! I didnât expect to write so much lmao, clearly I missed this

readerâs pronouns are he/him; race is ambiguous.
summary:
âI need to tell you something,â Robert says somewhat stiffly, his heart racing in his chest. You look up from where youâd been scrolling on your phone, giving him a flat look. You glance to your left and right, as if making sure no one is listening.
âYouâre Mecha Man,â you then remark dryly, taking another bite of your sandwich and covering your mouth. âI know,â you say once youâre finished chewing.
âOh,â Robert blinks. That wasnât even what he wanted to say.
Robert attempts to get to know the most private member of the Z-Team. You donât give him much to work with, unsurprisingly.
word count: 7.2k | ao3 version
authorâs notes: Since this is self-indulgent (as is all my writing), the reader is pretty antisocial. Iâm usually careful to keep the reader a bit of a blank slate, but this one is probably closer to OC territory just in terms of personality and hero name. Ah well! I think itâs still a fun read.
So! The readerâs pronouns are he/him. Race is ambiguous; thereâs a scene where heâs written to be shirtless, but otherwise, physical descriptions arenât used. Heâs written to have powers related to shadow manipulation and I gave him the hero name âPhantomâ.
This is canon-divergent and non-compliant. Also worth noting that I think this gameâs writing sucks, and I also hate Invisigal, so. Yeah.
The title of this fic is from whatâs wrong with me by Olivia Rodrigo <3333 It really reminds me of Robert.
Warnings: spoilers to Dispatch, sexual humor/innuendo (thanks, Flambae), fainting and loss of consciousness, hospitals, blood and injury.
Youâre doing nothing wrong. You keep your head down and donât mouth off; you show up to meetings on time (which is more than can be said for most participants in the Phoenix Program); youâre not easily distracted. You work well with others when necessary, but youâre competent on your own.Â
And when Robert becomes the newest dispatcher for the Z-Team, you barely even react. You obey his orders, hide any sarcasm, donât insult him. From the beginning, youâre the easiest person to work with.
Robert still isnât satisfied. Itâs not your performanceâyour speed, endurance, and intelligence make almost any mission a guaranteed success. Itâs not your demeanor either. At least, not really.Â
âWhereâs Phantom?â he asks loudly, the consistent thrum of the bass rattling his thoughts. Robert doesnât exactly feel at home in this villain bar, but he wanted to spend some time with his team outside of work. Hence how he finds himself sitting in the Sardine, pretending not to notice the dirty looks heâs getting. The others fit right in, considering their pasts as supervillains. Robert, on the other handâŠÂ
âPhantom?â Invisigal repeats, throwing him a judgmental look. She doesnât appreciate that heâs asking about you, clearly. âWho cares?â she huffs, resting her arms on the bar counter.Â
âThis isnât his kind of place,â Sonar remarks. Robert is the only one to hear him, and he frowns. He thought heâd been doing pretty well with the whole âteam-bondingâ thing, but you havenât been receptive. Youâve been easy to work with, but difficult to pin down outside of work hours. Hell, itâs like you disappear the moment youâre off the clock. Your hero name is far more accurate than you probably realize; like a phantom, youâre there one moment and gone the next. Â
Robert finds himself reviewing your file in his mind. Heâs already memorized it, at this point. Because itâs the only information he really has on you.Â
PHANTOM
Bio: Comes and goes quickly. Enigmatic and clever. Selective thieveryâsteals from the rich and powerful, often returning cultural artifacts to public institutions after the fact.
Abilities: Can manipulate shadows and travel through darkness.
Crimes: Burglary, grand larceny, loitering, possession of stolen property.Â
Note: Do not leave in a dark room. EVER.Â
Note from Chase:Â Tolerable. Almost interesting to speak with, but never sticks around long enough.Â
Mondays at SDN Torrance are always slow.Â
Robert sighs. The Z-Team members on the clock today are either resting or currently on duty. Theyâre all preoccupied right now, which means heâs stuck sitting here contemplating his life choices. He does this for a few minutes, before eventually deciding to revisit your file. Just for maintenance, really. Heâs not doing this for any particular reason, and heâs definitely not doing it to look at your mugshot again.Â
To Robertâs surprise, thereâs a new line at the end of your file. His heart jumps in his chest, until he processes the words:Â
Note from Chase (again):Â Stop lingering. You wonât solve him.Â
Robert sighs again.Â
Eventually, he loses his patience.Â
Itâs natural; Robert is only human. And for some reason, when it comes to you, waiting around feels like a complete waste of time. Youâre not opening up to him, so he has to call in reinforcements. Namely, the human personification of sunshine: Blonde Blazer.
She isnât convinced this will work. Something about you keeping to yourself, respecting your privacy, you being a reliable team member, yadda yadda. Honestly, Robertâs attention kind of slipped after the first few seconds. But Blazer knows heâs somewhat desperateâand she must be feeling particularly bad for himâbecause sheâs soon summoning you to her office to speak with them both.
âI reserve the right to say âI told you soâ when this doesnât work,â Blazer says just as she hears you knock. Robert sighs. âCome in!â Blazer says to you.Â
You open the door hesitantly, lingering in the doorway. Your hands are shoved in the pockets of your black cargo pants. Thatâs another thing that sets you apart from a lot of the superheroes at SDN: You donât want to stand out. Your clothes are all black and a little baggy, as if you donât want to be seen. Robert supposes that makes sense, when considering your superpower. You thrive in the shadows.Â
He watches as your eyes flit about the room. âBlazer,â you greet her cordially. Your gaze finds Robert second, and he pretends not to feel offended by it. âRobert. Hey.â
âHey,â Robert replies.Â
You look between the both of them warily. It already looks like youâre going to bolt. âWhatâs this about?â you ask.Â
âNothing; youâre not in trouble,â Blazer says reassuringly. She smiles. Uh oh. That smile means nothing good. And sure enough, she proceeds to throw him under the bus. âRobert was just telling me that he wanted to get to know you better.â
Robert sends her a dirty look.
Fortunately, you only look confused at the prospect. âWhy?â you say skeptically, as if bewildered that someone would ever want to get to know the person beneath the darkness.Â
âWeâre working together,â Robert answers smoothly, clasping his hands in his lap under the desk. He fidgets with one of his fingers, trying his best to keep his cool. For whatever reason, he gets kind of nervous in front of you. âIt would be helpful to know more about you.â
ââŠOkay,â you say.Â
âThatâs it?â Robert asks. He clears his throat and tries to sound more unbothered, less hopeful. It probably doesnât work. âYouâre agreeing?â The thought of learning more about you is an intriguing one, to say the least. Even your teammates donât know very much about you. You keep your secretsâyour thoughts, all of itâ close to your chest.Â
âAgreeing to what?â you squint, bringing him back to the present moment. âIâm not agreeing to anything.âÂ
Blazer sighs, sending him a knowing look. Robert presses on anyway. âBut donât you thinkââÂ
The door is swinging shut before he even finishes his sentence. He stares at the closed door in disbelief, before glancing over at Blonde Blazer. Sheâs looking down at the wooden surface of her desk, seeming to be fighting off a laugh.Â
âDonât,â Robert warns her.
âTold you so,â she says with a teasing smile.Â
Robert scowls.Â
âThe guyâs prickly,â Punch Up says to Robert after heâs recounted your conversation from earlier today. Everyone from the Z-Team was invited to this post-work outing at the Sardine; unsurprisingly, you arenât here. Again. âHe doesnât really care for the mushy stuff. A man after my own heart.â He thumps his fist against his chest; Malevola rolls her eyes.
âYou cried during the last movie night,â Sonar reminds him.Â
âMoana is a treasure, lad,â Punch Up responds firmly. Malevola just scoffs, before turning to Robert.Â
âIs this about Phantom again?â Malevola asks. âYou could just ask him out. Save us the trouble of hearing you whine about it.â
âWhat?â Robert chokes. âIâm not asking him out. Thatâs ridiculous.âÂ
âRiiiight,â Prism drawls, popping up from nowhere. âGirl. Youâre always staring at him with those âfuck-meâ eyes in meetings. Kinda embarrassing. Like, get a room.â
âThe what eyes?!?â Robert sputters, nearly choking on his drink. âIâve never done thatâ!â
Robert looks to Invisigal for help, but sheâs scowling and glaring at her drink like itâs committed a crime. He takes another sip of his drink⊠and pretends not to wish the empty seat next to him were occupied instead.
Robert Robertsonâs âcoming outâ goes down in typical Z-Team fashion: namely, out of his control; completely random and without explanation; and in the middle of the work day.Â
Prism is the instigator, unsurprisingly.Â
Honestly, Robert wasnât sure if heâd ever tell the team formally. Heâs always found it strange that people who arenât heterosexual have to announce themselves to be validated. Like, why canât he just show up with a boyfriend one day and leave it at that?Â
But, as much as he hates to admit it, everyone on the Z-Team is important to him. He wants them to know.Â
Could the announcement have been more graceful? Yes. But itâs too late for that. Instead it has to happen on a sunny afternoon in the middle of his shift. Robert had confided in Prism a few days prior, and she maintained that no one on the team would care. That many of them are gay themselves. But Robert was still unsure. He told himself heâd wait a bit longer, until he grew closer with everyone. (He wants to laugh at the memory now.)
The comms crackle after a few minutes of radio silence.Â
DISPATCH no. 163
Prism
(apropos of nothing)
Guys. Robertâs bisexual. He wants you to know.
The line is quiet for a while. Robert wants to melt into a puddle on the ground and disappear forever. He also wants to kill Prism, but thatâs for another day. Heâs more embarrassed than angry.Â
Just as heâs trying to psych himself up, though, Malevola makes the situation far worse by trying to get your attention.Â
Malevola
(pointedly)
Phantom.
You
(sounding distracted)
What?
Thatâs right. Robert had just sent you to the town square to calm down some rowdy citizens at the edges of a protest. Youâre likely just getting that wrapped up.Â
Malevola
Sheâs talking to you.Â
You
Me? What does this have to do with me?
Prism
Robert wants you to know heâs bisexual.
You
(clearly confused)
Okay.
âŠNot really sure how thatâs relevant, but good for you, Robert.Â
Robert(trying to save face)
That is nowhere near what I said. Iâm notâ
His face is burning red; Chase pops up from his adjacent desk, leaning over the divider with an amused expression on his face. Robert immediately waves him away, his cheeks pink as he runs a hand through his hair self-consciously. He forgot heâs sitting in the middle of the office right now, where everyone can hear him. Now he really wants to disappear.Â
You
Relax, guys.
Robert is immediately grateful that you came to his defense. He subconsciously presses his headset to his ear a bit tighter, his shoulders hunching as he tries to make himself as unnoticeable as possible.Â
Heâll cross that bridge when he gets there.
And is that amusement in your voice? Thatâs a new one.Â
Punch Up
(cackling)
Ahahah! Even the antisocial one knows. Youâre really in it now, buddy.
Robert
(with a sigh)
All right, now if everyone can stop speculating on my sexualityâ
Flambae
(with a louder sigh)
Who had bisexual?
Several voices overlap at once.Â
No, Sonar, you had gay, not biâ
Sonar
(arguing)
Same thing!Â
Prism
You would think a Harvard graduate would know the difference between bisexual and gay.
Sonar
Of course I do, Iâm not a fucking idiot! But $100 is $100.Â
Prism
True.Â
Flambae
Sucks to suck, my fanged friend.
Malevola
Like you can talk. You thought he was straight.
Flambae
Yeah, âcause no gay guy dresses like that.Â
Robert
Guys. Can we please get back on track?Â
Phantom, thereâs a robbery happening just down the street from you.
You
On it.Â
Your line clicks off as you exit the call. Golem chuckles.Â
Prism
Real smooth.Â
Robert
(demanding)
What?
Sonar
(amused)
You didnât want him there for that. Awwww, Bobbyâs embarrassedâŠÂ
Robert
(threateningly)
Call me Bobby again and Iâm sending you to the old lady who needs help with her cat.
Sonar
(with a punctuated sigh)
Fine⊠Robert.Â
Robert
Thank you. Now back to work, everyone.Â
Robert has always been aware of the fact that he is human. Unfortunately. He doesnât have any superpowers. Without the Mecha Man suit, heâs average. His dispatching work at SDN has been fulfilling, and he feels like heâs contributing. But still. There are times when Robert wishes he werenât so powerless.Â
Like now, for example. He saw some kids robbing a storeânot even a supermarket or department store, but a mom-and-pop type of storeâand he tried to intercept them. Tried being the key word in that sentence, because he proceeded to get his ass kicked and nearly curb-stomped.Â
Fortunately, just before the heel of the kidâs shoe reaches his face, the kid is shoved away. The world around Robert is briefly flooded in darkness, before he blinks and realizes it isnât just his eyesâitâs you. Youâre standing in front of Robert now, and though heâs unable to see the expression on your face, the shadows oscillating around you tell him youâre pissed.Â
âScram,â you order them. âNow.âÂ
The kids donât hesitate to make a quick getaway, promptly ditching their stolen goods and running away. You watch them retreat, before youâre turning back to Robert. âYou good?â you ask, blinking down at him.Â
âIâ yeah,â Robert stammers, still sitting on the ground like an idiot. The rough texture of the pavement is digging into his hand. Still, he attempts to pick up the remains of his dignity. âI couldâve handled it, though.â
You just send him an unimpressed look. He caves.Â
âOkay, fine, maybe not,â Robert admits. âThanks.â
âNo problem,â you respond. âWant a shortcut to the office?â
âSure,â he agrees easily. âThanks.â Robert blinks in surprise at your extended hand, before taking it and letting you pull him to his feet.Â
âThe prickling feelingâs normal,â you warn him. Robert canât even begin to figure out what that means before the world around him is fading to black. Darkness coalesces around him, thick and impenetrable and stifling. His shoulders bend, his body contorts like itâs shrinking on itself, and his skin is itching.Â
Then, in a blink, heâs standing on the pavement outside the office. Youâre regarding him with a concerned expression. Or maybe thatâs just Robertâs imagination. Itâs hard to tell. Everything is spinning. Why is everything spinning? His head hurts.Â
âAre you okay?â you question. Your face contorts unnaturally.
âYeahâ whoa,â Robert says, blinking a bit as his vision is thrown off. You steady him with a hand on his forearm. He should push you away. He doesnât.Â
âDid you get hit?â you frown, studying him. Your voice sounds a bit distant. The sky is blurring behind you. âYou donât look so good.âÂ
âRobert?â you ask. Now you sound far away. Robert tumbles to the ground, and the last sensation he recognizes is a hand on his waist and a murmured âShit.â
Robert wakes feeling like he got hit by a truck. Then a bus. Then maybe a train.Â
His throat is drier than a desert, he realizes as he inhales past scratchiness. He clears it and coughs, before a glass of water is pushed into his hand. He takes a few greedy sips, nearly downing the whole thing before itâs pulled away from him.
âYouâll make yourself sick,â a flat, admonishing voice says. Robert feels his stomach turn as he realizes the absolute last person he wants to see is standing there: you.
He always enjoys seeing you! Itâs not that. Itâs more⊠the embarrassing nature of it all. Robert is strung up in a hospital bed; his head hurts; he feels like shit and probably smells like it too. Not exactly his most flattering moment. And itâs difficult to think past his searing headache.Â
As if sensing Robertâs attempts to get his bearings, you continue. âYou fell into my arms like a fairy tale princess,â you say with a smirk, arms crossed over your chest as you look down at him with amusement. âGotta say, you are heavier than you look.âÂ
Ugh. Heâs never going to live this down, is he?Â
Thereâs the sound of voices down the hall. Itâs the rest of the Z-Team. You pay them a glance before turning back to him. âFeel better soon,â you say to Robert quickly, moving to the corner of the room and promptly disappearing into the shadows.Â
âWas that Phantom?â Punch Up asks disbelievingly, heading into the room with no hesitation.Â
âI think heâs actually put a dispatcher in here before,â Malevola reveals, walking behind him. To Robertâs growing horror, it looks like the whole team is here to visit him. âThe one who said âec ceteraâ.â
âA reasonable crash out,â Sonar agrees.
âSo, how ya feelinâ, champ?â Punch Up asks.Â
âWonderful,â Robert dryly, clearing his throat again.Â
âWell, his sarcasmâs intact,â Prism announces, crossing her arms over her chest. âNot so sure about the rest.â
âThanks, guys,â Robert says with a huff. He looks away. Despite how embarrassed he feels, it is nice to have visitors. To feel valued. â...Seriously.â
âAw, youâre blushing.â Someone pokes his cheek; he glares over to find Invisigal standing way too close to his bed, a mischievous smirk on her face.Â
âShut up,â Robert scowls. He maintains this expression for all of a few seconds, before the groupâs shenanigans get him to crack a reluctant smile.Â
Despite Robertâs role as the ever-present dispatcher, he actually doesnât get to see his team too often. A lot of the time, theyâre preoccupied for most of the dayâonly returning to headquarters to rest before heading out on assignment again. Heâll spot them out of the corner of his eye sometimes, shooting them a wave before getting back to work.Â
Today, though, heâs particularly distracted. The second Robert sees you, he drops his headset and heads over to the break room youâre making a beeline for. Usually, that would be irresponsible of him, but considering the only thing his heroes are handling now is wayward pets or escalated conversations, he thinks he has a few moments to spare.Â
Robert stuffs his hands in his pockets and lingers in the doorway, leaning against the doorframe for a moment. He watches you move about the break room with practiced ease, grabbing a sandwich and taking a seat at the table in the corner of the room. After a secondâs contemplation, he moves to stand across from you.Â
âI need to tell you something,â Robert says somewhat stiffly, his heart racing in his chest. You look up from where youâd been scrolling on your phone, giving him a flat look. You glance to your left and right, as if making sure no one is listening.Â
âYouâre Mecha Man,â you then remark dryly, taking another bite of your sandwich and covering your mouth. âI know,â you say once youâre finished chewing.Â
âOh,â Robert blinks.Â
âItâs fine,â you say dismissively, taking a few sips of your water. You look bored, uncaring. Robert isnât used to reactions like that from his team. Most of them have strong opinions on him, and treatment oscillates from blatant suggestive remarks and flirting to outright hatred. He isnât accustomed to being treated like heâs normal.Â
âYou havenât thrown me at a wall or anything, so⊠I guess that means weâre cool,â you add with a shrug.Â
âCool,â he echoes, nodding in agreement. Good to know. âThat⊠wasnât what I wanted to tell you, though.â You raise an eyebrow, looking up at him again. Robert looks around again, before continuing to speak. âThey were right. Well, Prism was. Iâm bisexual.â
âNice,â you nod. A brief pause. Robert stares at you expectantly. And you frown, seeming confused. âWhy does everyone think I care? Do I give off homophobic vibes or something?â
âWhat?â Robert asks. âNo. No. I justâ I donât know. I wanted you to know, I guess.â
âOoookay,â you say, blinking at him. âWell. Cool. That changes nothing.â
âHa,â Robert laughs. Itâs an unnatural gesture, empty of genuine amusement. Because, truthfully, he does want it to change something. He wants you to see him as an option.Â
Instead he just falls quiet, heading back to his desk.Â
If he had remained a few moments longer, he wouldâve seen the contemplative expression on your face.
DISPATCH no. 171
You
Flambae, Iâm going to flame-broil you myself.Â
Flambae
(with a slight lilt to his voice)
Say less.Â
You
Shut up.Â
Prism
If I had a nickel for every time Flambe flirted with someone on comms, Iâd be fucking rich.Â
Malevola
We all would be.
Flambae
Aw, come on.Â
Phantom, I saw you get assigned to that wayward cat in the tree the other day. If youâre gonna play sexy firefighter, you gotta give a guy some warning.
You(flatly)
Says the literal human fireball.
Robert
(firmly)
Enough.Â
Flambae
(teasingly)
What, getting jealous, Robby?
Robert
Itâs Robert.Â
Flambae
(with a grin)
Maybe weâll let you watch, if Iâm feeling generous.
You
(scoffing)
There arenât enough wayward cats in the world to distract me from what you just said.
Robert, send me off somewhere. Preferably far away.
Robert
(snapping back to attention)
Iâ Yeah, got it. Thereâs a baby trapped in a car two streets down.
You
Great.
Your line clicks off as you evidently go to handle the situation.Â
Malevola
Trouble in paradise.Â
Invisigal
(harshly)
Can everyone shut the fuck up?! Iâm trying to focus.Â
Sonar
First time for everything.Â
Robert
This may be the only time I ever say this⊠but I agree with Invisigal. Back to work, everyone.
There are assorted groans and huffs. Robert focuses on dispatching the remaining heroes, before checking in on your progress. You rescued the baby a few moments ago; now youâre monitoring a nearby robbery. Robert moves to your private channel.Â
DISPATCH no. 171
Robert
So, you and Flambae, huh?Â
You
(scoffing)
He wishes.Â
Robert
Is he always soâŠ
You
Flirty? Pretty much.
Robert
I canât imagine heâs successful often.Â
Itâs quiet. He ended that sentence as if he wanted you to reassure him. Did he want you to reassure him? He isnât sure.Â
Thereâs the distant sound of breaking glass from your side of the call.Â
You
(huffing)
Stop distracting me.Â
Robert
You can multitask.Â
You
Donât put that much faith in me.Â
You duck for cover and watch as the robber makes his way around the space.Â
Iâm known to disappoint.
Robert
Havenât failed me yet.Â
You huff under your breath, melting into the shadows on the opposite wall and appearing behind the robberâs shoulders. Youâre quick to get him down to the ground, and he goes down with a groan. You keep a knee on his back. Â
You
We havenât been acquainted for long.Â
Robert
Guess Iâd better prepare for future disappointment, then.Â
You
Yeah, just maybe not today.
You get the guyâs hands restrained and then pull him to his feet, sending a wave to the camera in the corner of the room before disappearing into the shadows.Â
Robert turns off his microphone and sighs. It sounds more forlorn than heâd like.Â
Of course, Chase then pops his head up above the divider between their desks, and proceeds to tease him about it for several minutes.
INT. â Conference room, SDN office. Torrance, California.Â
Sonar leans back in his chair, one leg crossed at the knee. His head rests on the back languidly, as he twirls a pen around his finger.Â
Sonar
(in a mocking voice)
Iâve gathered you all here todayâŠÂ
A few of the other members laugh, but itâs slightly quieter than normal. The atmosphere is almost stifling. Ever since Robert and Blonde Blazer summoned the Z-Team for a mandatory meeting, things have been tense.Â
Robert himself stands at the head of the table, struggling to hide his restlessness.Â
Like you heard him thinking about you, you emerge from the shadows in the corner. The minute hand hits the last slot. Itâs 3:59 p.m. You eye the empty chairs for a long few moments.
Robert
(relieved)
You made it.Â
You
Hey.Â
You head around the table and take the free seat next to Prism, falling into it with a sigh.Â
Blonde Blazer
(calmly)
Does anyone know where Invisigal is?
A few head shakes and helpless looks. No one knows, apparently.
Chase
(huffing)
Good riddance.
Robert shoots him a half-hearted glare, before turning back to face the group. Heâs been stalling for long enough. Â
Robert
(gravely)
I think we all know why weâre here. Thereâs been an information breach, comms channels interceptedâŠÂ Shroudâs forces have intimate knowledge of our movements.
Sonar
(with a chuckle)
Intimate?
Malevola shoulder-checks him hard and he winces.Â
Robert
This is serious. One of you is leaking classified information to the Red Ring, and itâs endangering the rest of the teamâand, more broadly, the organization.
Weâll be having conversations with each of youâ
You
(interjecting)Â
Itâs Invisigal.Â
The air falls to an uncomfortable tension, only punctuated by the ever-present hum of the fluorescent lights. Then, the room bursts into noise.Â
Punch Up
What?!
Prism
(amused as she bumps your shoulder)
You canât just say that out of nowhere, dude.
The rest of the group seems just as skeptical. Several different conversations occur at once, sending the room into a cacophony of noise. Robert stares at you.Â
Robert
Why do you think so?
The room falls quiet.
You
She hasnât used her inhaler in a while.Â
Your eyes are locked on Robert. He feels something like a shiver crawl up his spine at the prospect of having your undivided attention. It may just be the first time youâve looked at himâreally seen him, not as a mere prop to the teamâs set, but as a genuine contributor.Â
You
The real inhaler, I mean. The one she has now is just tap water.
Robert
(with a frown)
Tap water.Â
(fingers tapping restlessly on the table)
What are you suggesting?
You
She took a deal from Shroud. To get new lungs, probably. Thatâs why sheâs been able to sit here invisible this whole time.
Thereâs the sudden sound of shuffling footsteps, as an empty chair spins in a dizzying whirl. Itâs all a blur, and when Robertâs eyes can process whatâs happening, he finds Invisigal panting in the corner while you have dark shadows binding her arms and legs.Â
Invisigal
(furious)
Iâm not with Shroud.Â
Robert hates that he notices, but Invisigal doesnât even sound out of breath. Considering theyâve been here for more than five minutesâŠÂ
You
Yes, you are. And you were there that night.Â
You then turn to look at Robert pointedly. And Robertâs heart sinks to his chest. He looks at Invisigal. Itâs clear which night youâre referring to: the one when he was ambushed by Shroud, and the Mecha Man suit was destroyed. If Invisigal was there, that can only meanâŠ
Robert
Is that true?
Invisigal
(turning on you immediately)
Hey, if anyoneâs fucking suspicious, itâs you!
You freeze, seeming genuinely thrown off.Â
You
Me?
Invisigal
(looking at Robert imploringly)
You know itâs true, Robert.Â
She strains against the intangible bonds restraining her wrists.
InvisigalHeâs never around, always running off and avoiding everyone. We donât know the first damn thing about him.
You
This isnât about me.
(looking at Robert)
Sheâs trying to distract you. She was there that night, and she hasnât denied it.Â
Invisigal
Heâs a criminal, Robert.Â
Robertâs stomach stews in unease. He looks over at you, only to find you looking entirely unbothered by the accusation. In fact, thereâs this slight quirk to your lips, almost like a smirk.Â
You
Sure, Iâm a criminal, but Iâm not a liar.
With a quick hand motion, you send something skittering across the conference table; Robert realizes that itâs Invisigalâs inhaler. It comes to a stop just at the edge, spinning at him mockingly. Robert picks it up and studies the label. The prescription is from several months ago.Â
You
Grab a CT scan if youâre still unconvinced. An asthmatic canât hold their breath for five minutes.
And like a switch has flipped, Invisigal is suddenly in your space, reeling back to punch you in the face. You just barely manage to sidestep it, her fist going into the wall instead.Â
Invisigal
Fuck you! Iâll kill you, you stupid son of a bitch!
She twists and spits on you. You wipe your face off calmly. Superheroes from outside enter the room to detain Invisigal; they cart her out while sheâs still spitting profanities and curses.Â
âŠAnd then itâs dead silent.Â
You
(turning to Robert and Blazer)
Does that solve your security problem?
Itâs clear youâre not actually waiting for an answer, as you promptly sink back into the shadows and disappear. A tense silence descends on the space.Â
Chase
(huffing in amusement)
Well damn.
He pushes his glasses up his nose, begrudgingly impressed.Â
Guyâs got spunk.
Flambae
Fiery. I can work with that.
Robert
(flatly)
You are not working with anything.
Flambae
Why not?Â
Robert
Because youâre not.Â
Flambae
(picking at his nails)
You have a claim on him or something?
(looks up with a smirk)
Pretty sure he can do whatever he wants. Like me, for example.
Robert takes a deep breath in, out.Â
Robert
Shut up. Everyone, dismissed.Â
Flambae just grins.Â
Ironically, once Invisigalâs gone, the team functions much better. Robert hadnât realized how much of a source of friction she was. Now that sheâs absent, everyone gets along pretty easily. He canât believe it: heâs lasted a few months with the Z Teamâa feat no other dispatcher has ever accomplished. Blazer gives him a raise, he gets some more responsibility. Itâs perfect.Â
Well. Except for one glaring issue: you. Namely, his feelings for you. Robert has no idea what to do with them. He doesnât know if you even like himâyouâre not really friends. You tolerate him as if heâs merely a coworker. And maybe thatâs all youâll be. But if thereâs a chance that things could be differentâŠ
No use in daydreaming, though. It wonât happen. Thereâs no optimal time to confess his feelings, especially when theyâre for a coworker. He only sees you at work, and he doesnât necessarily want to ask you out yet. Again, it seems like you barely tolerate him.Â
Ironically, his opportunity comes when you get back to headquarters after apprehending a supervillain. Robert had been worried as he was monitoring the situation, but he left you to it. You tend to do better without his interference, heâs learning. And he didnât want to distract you by suddenly throwing out advice in the middle of a battle. So instead heâs left to survey the damage, watching as you make a beeline for the breakroom habitually.Â
Heâd almost be convinced that youâre fine, if not for the way youâre favoring your right side. Robertâs suspicions are confirmed when he sees you wince as you try and fail to grab something located on the lower shelf of the fridge.
When you manage to push yourself up, Flambae is standing there, leaning against the side of the fridge. Robert chooses to make his appearance then too, settling in the doorway and crossing his arms over his chest.
âYou okay?â Robert asks, pointedly ignoring the knowing look Flambae shoots him.Â
âJust got nicked,â you respond dismissively, closing the fridge door. âItâs fine.â
Itâs clear neither one of them believes you, but Flambaeâs the one who leans in and pulls up your shirt to reveal the wound stretching across your ribs. He whistles. âDamn.â
You huff and pull away from him. Robert shouldnât be satisfied by this refusal, but he is. Until he remembers there are more pressing matters at hand.Â
âThat is âjust getting nickedâ?â Robert says disbelievingly. âYouâre tracking blood everywhere.â
You look down, blinking blearily. âOh,â you say. âWhoops.â
âI can cauterize it,â Flambae grins, summoning flames across his hand.Â
âHa⊠please donât,â you say helplessly.Â
âThatâs definitely not necessary,â Robert agrees. âIâll get the first-aid kit.â And if he seems particularly eager, oh well. He canât remember the last time heâs had a chance to talk to you alone, without the entire team listening in or the weight of an unplanned confession on his shoulders. Heâs not going to blow this.Â
Robert guides you to one of the empty on-call rooms, gently pushing you back until youâre sitting on the bed. Your hand is pressed to your side now, beads of sweat collecting at your neck and collarbones. Youâre not showing it much, but youâre in pain.Â
âGonna have to clean it first,â Robert says. Heâs not sure if that remark is for his own benefit or yours. He decides not to think about it, instead unpacking the first aid kit and getting an alcohol wipe. âReady?â
âI guess,â you say defeatedly. Robert looks up, something tugging at his heart when he notices the dark circles under your eyes, the exhausted slump of your form. As if you can sense him watching, you sit up straighter. You tug your shirt up, but the woundâs a bit too high up for the posture to be maintained.Â
âMay need to take your shirt off,â Robert says, clearing his throat awkwardly and averting his eyes. You seem amused at his reaction, beginning to take it off before your face contorts in pain.Â
âI think I need help,â you admit begrudgingly.Â
âSure,â Robert responds. âNo HR violations hereâŠâ he chuckles flatly. He pulls your shirt up gently, careful not to graze you by accident. As he prepares the supplies and begins cleaning the wound, you tense up the moment the alcohol wipe hits your skin, hissing through your teeth.Â
âSorry,â he says immediately.Â
âItâs fine,â you respond.Â
âSo,â Robert starts, unable to shake off the intimacy of the moment. Itâs just the two of you here, in this small on-call room at the office. Heâs never seen you show much skin, never seen you very injured. This feels like a pretty big departure from how he usually sees you. âInvisigal was right about one thing: I donât know anything about you.âÂ
âI know,â you acknowledge, hands pressed to the mattress under you. You look at the wall across from you. âYou have a file on me, Iâm sure.â
âWell, yeah,â he admits, briefly pausing in his ministrations to give you an amused look. âThatâs different.â He goes back in with the alcohol wipe one more time before discarding it.Â
âJust⊠tell me something,â Robert offers, rummaging around for the ointment in the first aid kit. âAnything.âÂ
You frown, seeming to need a moment to contemplate the question. Your eyes flit about the room.Â
âMy powers didnât come around until I was nine or ten,â you begin. âI woke up for school one morning, opened the blinds, went to get dressed⊠and fell into the shadow my bed cast on the floor.âÂ
âI didnât know what was happening, of course,â you continue. âI mustâve been trapped there, in the darkness, for an hour or so. Screaming, yelling for help. My mom pulled me out.âÂ
âThatâsâŠâ Robert breaks off. He doesnât really know what to say. He was expecting a lot of things. Hell, he was expecting for you to refuse to surrender any information in the first place. He was definitely not expecting something that intense. âThat sounds terrifying.â
âIt was,â you agree. âBut I got used to it. Obviously.âÂ
âGood.â Itâs quiet for a bit, as he puts some gloves on and applies the ointment delicately.Â
âYouâre a bit too good at this,â you observe, noticing how practiced his motions seem. âShould I be worried?âÂ
Robert laughs dryly. âNo.â A beat. âMaybe.â He continues, applying the last of the ointment before discarding the gloves and heading to the sink in the corner of the room to wash his hands. You help him by holding the prepared gauze against your ribs, while he unrolls the adhesive and lays it over the wound as gently as he can manage.
âMost villains donât think about the man behind the suit,â he admits as he unrolls the adhesive further, starting to wrap it around your torso. He glances up every few seconds to make sure he isnât securing it too tightly. âThey just want to destroy it.â
âYou think youâll go back to Mecha Man?â you ask. Itâs far from the first time heâs been asked that question. But he finds himself genuinely considering it now, under your expectant gaze.Â
âNot sure,â Robert admits, wrapping the bandaging around one last time.Â
âYouâre pretty good at the whole dispatching thing,â you remark, âif thatâs any consolation.âÂ
âComing from you, that is a very high compliment,â Robert says, fighting off a smile as he ensures the bandaging is sticking to itself and wonât budge.Â
âI know,â you respond.Â
âAll done,â Robert announces moments later, regretfully removing his hand from your side. You feel at the bandages experimentally, before looking over at him.
âThanks,â you say with an awkward pull to your lips. Youâre grateful for Robertâs assistance, though now that you think about it, the situation is kind of awkward. Youâre just sitting here without a shirt on, and Robert was being so carefulâalmost too careful, as if he was wary of touching you.Â
âGod, just kiss already, lads,â Punch Up huffs, walking down the hall as he evidently returns from an assignment. âYouâre bloody unbearable.âÂ
âThanks for the input,â Robert says dryly. âWeâll keep that in mind.âÂ
âYouâd better,â Punch Up says with a knowing look, before heading for the next on-call room to rest. âAnd donât get the bed dirty!âÂ
A disbelieving laugh crawls out of your throat before you can stop it, and Robertâs head whips around so fast itâs almost comical. Heâs staring at you with wide eyes, lips parted in surprise. âDid you just laugh?âÂ
âUh⊠yeah,â you blink, amusement giving way to self-consciousness. You try to cover it up with sarcasm. âWhat, am I not allowed?â
The remark is promptly ignored, as Robert nudges the door mostly shut before heading over to you. âIâve never heard you laugh before,â he says, hands in the pockets of his slacks as he considers you. Heâs staring at you like heâs just seen an entirely new facet of your personality. Itâs kind of weird. He looks⊠almost pleased.Â
Still, you feel the need to maintain what little remains of your dignity. âWell, maybe youâre just not funny,â you say defensively. The remark comes off as more rude than you want it to be. You wince internally.Â
âWow,â Robert drawls. âAnd here I was wanting to kiss you.â
Youâre staring at him like heâs just grown a third head. âYou actually want to kiss me?â you say incredulously.
âIâve wanted to kiss you this whole time,â he admits sheepishly. Robert scratches the back of his neck.Â
âSeriously?â you say skeptically. Itâs kind of hard to believe that Robert would be attracted to you. You arenât really⊠Well. You donât think youâre a super stand-out person. Youâre content with fading into the backgroundâhell, thatâs how you prefer to live.
âIâm serious,â he responds. He stares at you for several moments, watching you come to the conclusion that heâs being entirely sincere. Then thereâs that slight quirk to his lips again, and heâs shifting his weight back and forth slightly, and you realize: Heâs nervous. Robert Robertson is nervous.Â
âYou donât owe me anything,â he maintains. âBut I wouldnât mind an answer.âÂ
Itâs quiet for a moment. âYou realize half of the team is in love with you,â you say, eyes searching his face. The words you want to say are trapped in your throat. Instead of accepting what is clearly true, your skeptical nature is forcing you to scrutinize thisâuntil it eventually falls apart. And it will fall apart, because thatâs what always happens.Â
âThatâs an exaggeration,â Robert says dryly, breaking you out of your spiraling thoughts.Â
âNot really,â you frown. âBlazer; Vis, when she was here; Waterboy, PhenomamanâŠâ you continue, almost counting off on your fingers. Robert is a pretty popular guy around here: heâs companionable and friendly, dependable, a hard worker. Itâs no surprise that heâs earned the attention of the office.Â
âBut you like me,â you say disbelievingly.Â
âYes,â Robert responds, something like amusement in his voice. It fades when he sees your expression, and he almost frowns. âWhy is that hard to believe?â
âI donât know,â you say helplessly. âIâmâ Iâm used to the shadows. No oneâs supposed to notice me.â
And you wouldnât know, but that resonates with Robert. Deeply. He feels like heâs spent his entire adult life trying to live up to the publicâs expectations of him. He never chose Mecha Man; Mecha Man chose him. His father placed that responsibility on him without stopping to wonder if his son deserved moreâmore than patching himself up in a dark room, new wounds ripping old scars apart; rotting in a studio apartment while he tries to cling to the remnants of an old life. A life that was never really his.Â
A measured inhale. âSafer that way?â Robert asks quietly.Â
âYeah,â you acquiesce, fingers jittering slightly as you smooth out a nonexistent wrinkle in the sheet beneath you. You donât participate in conversations this much; you donât talk this much. Itâs a bit tiring, and itâs definitely nerve-wracking. No one stays this long. Thereâs a reason why you donât linger: You donât offer people the chance to get close. You keep everyone at armâs length. And yet⊠here Robert is, standing there with bright eyes and a determined expression.Â
âWell,â he remarks, taking another step closer. âI notice you. Way too often, honestly.âÂ
A breathless laugh crawls its way out of your chest. It sounds more like a scoff than anything else, but you can tell Robert still notices it. After a momentâs contemplation, you get to your feet so youâre standing right in front of him, eye to eye.Â
âSometimes I think youâre the only one who bothers,â you say. Itâs spoken quietly, but in the silent tension of the room, the words linger. A few seconds drag on, before you summon the courage to break the distance. Thereâs not much space between you now. Your hand moves almost of its own accord, as you reach out somewhat robotically and rest it on Robertâs shoulder.Â
âYou donât have to force it,â he consoles you, sensing youâre out of your element.Â
âNo, IâŠâ you break off. âI want to. I like you too.â And gods, what a mortifying thing to say, but itâs worth it to see the genuine happiness break through and rise on Robertâs face. âI just donât know what Iâm doing,â you confess in a punched-out breath.Â
âItâs fine,â he reassures you. âJust follow my lead.âÂ
Robert then reaches out, his hand landing on your cheek. His gaze finds yours, giving you more than enough time to back away. You do nothing of the sort, and before long, heâs gently tugging you closer and kissing you. Your hand moves from his shoulder to the nape of his neck as you embrace him, and though you want to reach out with your other hand, you know the effort will just hurt your ribs. Robert seems cognizant of that too, as his hands donât wander anywhere beneath the nape of your neck.Â
âNow, letâs⊠uh,â Robert stammers when you break apart, clearing his throat awkwardly. His cheeks are flushed pink, and heâs noticeably looking anywhere but your shirtless chest. âLetâs get you another shirt. Before I explode.âÂ
Sometimes I write lines that even surprise myself. I wrote âfollow my leadâ and immediately went đłđ oh đđ
sigh... this is yet another installment of one of my favorite tropes: popular guy x the one whoâs immune to his charisma... I have a Robert x SDN repair tech!reader idea that I want to get finished... sobs

Sitting in Nikolai's lap always guaranteed one thing. You were perched on his powerful thighs, his chest a solid wall of heat against your back, but the real focus was below. You tilted your head down, watching the hypnotic slide of his thick, flushed cock as it drove between your slick thighs. From your angle, it was a perfect illusion; his shaft disappearing and reappearing could have been your own, a foreign appendage that felt more right than any part of you ever had. The thought alone made your hole clench, a desperate, empty ache blooming deep inside you.
A low, knowing chuckle rumbled in his chest. He leaned in, his lips grazing your throat. "You like that, don't you, son?" The word was a spark, a possessive, filthy claim that made you whimper.
Your hand moved on its own, sliding down to wrap around his shaft as it pumped against you. Your fingers met his slick skin, stroking him in time with his thrusts. The feel of him, hard and hot in your palm, was intoxicating. You could feel every twitch and throb, hear the ragged hitch in his breath. It was a symphony of masculine pleasure, and it was all for you.
Your mind spiraled, imagining it was your own cock you were stroking, imagining the pleasure coiling in your gut was yours to claim. The fantasy was so potent that it pushed you right to the edge. You didn't even have to touch yourself; the sheer force of it crashed over you. A choked cry escaped your lips as your thighs clamped down, your whole body trembling as your release soaked your skin.
The sudden, tight pressure of your climax was all it took for him. Nikolai let out a guttural grunt, his hips stuttering as he followed you into oblivion. Thick, hot ropes of his cum painted the inside of your thighs, a wet, filthy testament to your shared depravity.
He was still breathing heavily when he spoke again, his voice a rough, satisfied murmur against your ear. "Didn't know you were one of those trannies," he said, the word a final, possessive brand.
And god help you, you loved it. A moan escaped from you and Nikolai only began to thrust again.
"Go on, son, enjoy your cock, show me how you play with your cock."
