ouhh this is currently a wip I've been working on, but i wanna ramble about it anyways
vigilante sickfic au, where tommy decides to go out on patrol while sick-- which is whatever, he's The Theseus, greatest vigilante ever, he won't let a fever keep him from protecting his city --and it all goes wrong from there. The last thing he remembers before waking up is The Syndicate desperately trying to get Tommy to go home because he obviously wasn't well.
Thing is, he's not in his room.
Shit, this wasn't even in his apartment.
Cue the screaming panic that comes with the fact he's most definitely been kidnapped, which only serves to make matters worse because Ares and Zephyrus, come rushing into the room to check on him. Because, according to them, Tommy passed out while they were fighting and-- mostly Zephyrus, Ares is very quick to add --didn't feel right just leaving him there so they took him back to their home.
Ah. Of course, of course.
He's just been kidnapped by The Syndicate, the most wanted criminal group in The Essempi. No big deal. He could probably take them.
Except, Zephyrus claims they don't want to harm Tommy, the opposite actually, they just want to take him somewhere that he knows he can be taken care of until his fever dies down. Which should be a simple enough plan, Tommy says a name, and they drop him off there so everyone can wipe their hands clean of this.
Except Tommy has no one he can name. No one ever stays long enough to care about him that much.
So, Zephyrus (who is already planning to draft up adoption papers after this conversation is done) tells Tommy that he'll just have to stay with them until he feels better, much to the vigilante’s dismay.
Cue the about 12k words of sickfic fluff I've got down so far, but should be more by the time I've actually finished it.
(And then maybe once I've got that done I'm already planning a small sequal one-shot set not long after)
