Hear me out... Tide and a villain he hangs out with after fights to just chill with
This didnât really fit with my usual reader base BUT this idea was rrly great so I made basically a new guy that can now work as a evil-ish mentor to âtellyâ aka the main PD reader I write for I REALLY hope you enjoy because this was so so fun and in fact helped me work some stuff out for the main fic lore
Also this was just generally fun to think of
Okay you do have to admit it wasâŚ. Weird as hell being here at the base
I mean.. youâre a villain.. well villain is a strong word but thatâs the colloquial wording for what youâve been doing
Itâs was An interesting choice you have to admit but finding out the things about your powers that you did what was your choice? NOT violently dismantling the system? Yeah exactlyâŚ
You stood outside the door taping your shoes against the concrete
You sigh pulling out the key tide gave you and unlocking the door âfucks sakesâ you mutter walking through the door and then closing and locking it behind you politely
You slowly meander to the kitchen where tide is cooking something that smells suspiciously good
He perks up and turns to face you âah! Your here! Lovely!â
You purse your lips and nod this was the first time youâve ever actually been here In his.. well house you suppose it was⌠a bit uncomfortable⌠âyep,â you look around ânice place⌠normal rules?â
âNo workâ youâve done this before
âNo workâ you nod sight and shrug off you jacket and rest it on one of the chairs in front of the kitchen island âso, how was you day tideâ you had done this to many times to count but you still quirk a small smirk
In costume you two would fight to the brim of death well.. you used to you explained the whole reason you were dismantling that dickhead scientist and his colleagues
For some reason tides punchâs started to pull
Until one day you just.. stopped pretty much
Him waiting until the last wire was pulled from the cloning tanks to knock you out
not throwing you in a cell before you were probably iced and bandaged
That some how led into hanging out outside of âworkâ a few times
And now you were having dinner at his house⌠with the kids he was taking care of some are aroundâŚ
âWell, the boys got through a full day of school andââ
The small red kid walks through the door âhey tide, I smelled something good are you cookiâ VILLAIN!â He spots you and runs at you at a super human speed winding up for a punch
You work off of mussel memory and ptsd and instinct catching the boys hand, spraining your wrist maybe fracturing it, and flipping him on to the ground and pinning him to the floor
âTide help! Heâs got me! The villain!â The small red kid says muffled by his face smushed into the floor
You slowly realize what you just did and you pulled yourself out of your shock and stand up tide pulling you back by the shoulder
You kid rolls over to jump up and try to get you again but your backing away âsorry, sorry kid that was an accidentâ
âWhat the fuck are you doing in our base? Tide what havenât you sucked all the water out of this guy yet!â
Tide walks up and sets a hand on the red boyâs shoulder âi said Iâd have a guest over for stroganoff tonight, and you!â Tide turns to you and just sets his hand on his hips and looks at you with a look you can barely distinguish
âDakota, go set the dining tableâ
âPleaseâ he sets a bundle of spoons and forkâs wrapped in napkins to the red boy- Dakota
âAlright..â he glances at you hesitantly before leaving the room
Tide turns to you one the boy is gone
âI can trust you hereâ
âI can trust you not to fight the boysâ
âI have no qualms with them, we both jumped on instinctâ
