Like, when Brute Force was the FIRST villain group to be captured, Warden just interrogating them and watching them and studying them carefully. Benito has always been guarded with his reactions as well as Misha and Alley can be when it the time calls for it. But Lisa is conducting questioning and when she asks a question about children, Misha accidentally makes the mistake of changing his tone.

It's brief, a normal person wouldn't hear it, but Warden was trained to hear those kinds of things. For a brief moment, his tone was defensive. Almost protective. So Warden just knocking on the window to let Lisa know that they should switch and Lisa nods her head and does so. And Misha continues his cocky facade before Warden sits down: "Now, regarding the questioning, you reacted at a question...The one about children, if I'm not mistaken? I wonder why that is."

Misha: "I don't know what you're talking about."

Warden: "I'm sure you don't. I just find it interesting that Meiling Wu San hasn't been seen for a while shortly after your union and the death of her father."

Misha, smirking: "We divorced."

Warden: "Right when the baby was coming along? I doubt that."

and Misha just tensing up at that and he glares at Warden: "...Did those traitors tell you?" and The Triplets just glaring and hissing at him from the other side of the window but Warden shakes his head: "Nah. You see, Misha, I don't need magical powers to read people. I see with my own eyes, I hear with my own ears, and I pay close attention to what people say and how they say it. So, let me ask: Do you want to find out? Or are you going to stop fucking around with me?" and Misha narrows his eyes but then sighs in defeat.

But also, like, IT CAN GET PRETTY ANNOYING WHEN YOU'RE HIS SPOUSE. Him and Ronan are having an argument and Warden really can't shut it off. He'll scan for any source of weakness or give in Ronan's voice when Ronan is upset and Ronan has to yell: "STOP! STOP LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT!"

Warden: "What the hell are you talking about?"

Ronan: "THAT! THAT STUPID PSYCHOANALYZING, BODY LANGUAGE READING THING- STOP IT! I know what you're trying to do and I want to remind you: I AM YOUR HUSBAND, NOT A CRIMINAL."

Warden: "Ronnie, you're being hysterical."

Ronan: "THERE! RIGHT THERE, YOU'RE TRYING TO GET INTO MY HEAD AND I'M JUST ASKING YOU NOT TO BE SO DISTANT! I CAN'T EVEN HAVE PERSONAL TIME WITH YOU WITHOUT YOU TRYING TO PLAY MINDGAMES!" and Warden just staring down at him and those cold, calculating eyes soften as he frowns and he hugs him close.

Warden: "I...I'm sorry, baby...It's...It's hard for me to turn it off."

Ronan: "I know, babe, I know. But you don't need to be so on gaurd when you're with me. You can feel safe with me always, right?"

and Warden just nods his head and hugs him tightly to his body.

Rosario: "Really!? I'd love to hear more about it instead of just sitting in the bathtub with my super sexy boyfriend who is feeding my chocolate and filling my wine glass."

Maikel: "Perfect because it is LENGTHY-" and Rosario rolls his eyes and hangs up and Benito is all: "That was rude." and Rosario shrugs and he's all: "He knows I still love 'em. I just love you more~" only for Benito's phone to ring and he sighs and picks it up and he's all: "So, uh...funny coincidence, apparently Maikel uncovered my underground weapons trade so I have to take care of that-" and Rosario groans but sips wine and at least watches as soap and water fall down and drip off of Benito's butt.

OR LIKE, TOMMY AND MARTHA JUST DEAL WITH IT BY GOING OFF THE RADAR. They are UNREACHABLE. Batman is trying to find her with the Bat Computer but nothing is showing up and SHIELD is using all of their resources to find Tommy. Meanwhile, they're on the beach laughing and clinking their wine glasses BECAUSE THEY DESERVE IT. AND WHEN THEY GET BACK, they get lectured so badly but it was so totally worth it. Like, Martha and Elazar totally have an agreement where one of them goes off-radar or off-planet with their s/o and the other person covers as leader for both teams. MEANWHILE, Tommy kisses Martha and he's all: "Every hour I spend with you is precious but we should consider going back tommorrow because I feel like Lonan is doing shit he should not be doing-" and Martha giggles and she's all: "I mean, he does need practice~"

MAIKEL KNOWS HIS VILLAINS SO WELL that he plans his dates specifically on dates he KNOWS they're gone, in Arkham, etc. But obviously since he's a man with many enemies, it's hard to the perfect day so sometimes he takes his chances. Like, he and Felicia are having a really nice dinner at a restaurant and Felicia is all: "I need to use the restroom." and Maikel casually notices a sniper out the window and he's all: "Look at that, I do too! You know what would be fun? Crouching as we make our way to the bathroom and pretend like we're trying to avoid being shot." and Felicia frowns: "That doesn't sound very fun at all." Or like, Cheshire and James-Dean show up to ruin their date and kill them but Maikel is all: "OKAY, how about I buy you two dinner and you DON'T ruin my date with my girlfriend." and they agree but they purposely order the most expensive dishes because they're petty like that. And when Maikel gets the bill, Felicia is all: "Oh dear, we didn't order that much, did we?" and Maikel just side eyes the two of them but he's all: "You know how expensive these places are. It was probably that water refill I asked for-"

LISA AND ANGELO'S DATES ARE KIND OF EXPECTED TO GO OFF THE RAILS. That's why Lisa likes them because they're so fun and exciting. They're driving to see Wicked or something in Angelo's convertible and Lisa sees a black car following them and she hums softly: "Oh dear, looks like we have company~" and Angelo is all: "Lisa, I'm DRIVING. You handle it." and she nods before she's all: "...Did you move my gun from the glove box?"/ Angelo: :"How would I know where YOUR gun is?"/ Lisa: "Because you're very insensitive and like to move my things around without asking. Like that one time I washed my face with handsoap and not moisturizer!"/ Angelo: "HOW IS IT MY FAULT YOUR MOISTURIZER LOOKS LIKE HANDSOAP!?" and Lisa scoffs: "AH-HAH. It was in the side pocket here!"/ Angelo: "Now that you mention it, I probably did put it there when I was cleaning your car-" And Lisa pouts but when the car behind them starts shooting. Lisa sitting up and Angelo uses one hand to hold her skirt down so it doesn't blow up from the wind as she shoots the two front tires of the car.

Nick: "I know DAMN WELL he wouldn't be VIOLATING THE GENEVA CONVENTIONS IF I HAD RAISED HIM."

Amanda: "Don't talk like you know MY son, Marcus. I raised him."

Nick: "Obviously."

and Warden just silently walking in and he's all: "...We having a family meeting or something?"

Amanda: "Warden, leave. I just have to talk with Director Fury and we'll go."

Warden: "Mama, I don't want to do that."

Amanda: "I don't care. I'm your mother, go-"

Warden: "No."

and Amanda blinks but she frowns and Warden just stares at her: "Sit down. We need to talk." and he looks at Fury and he's all: "ALL of us need to talk."

So they do and Warden sits in the middle and he just looks at Nick.

"Did...Did you seriously not know about me?"

Nick: "Can't say I did, no."

"Mama, why didn't you tell me?"

Amanda: "Warden, I'd move heaven and hell to keep you safe. He's just a stranger who prioritizes his precious SHIELD."

Warden: "Don't throw stones, mom. Because I didn't get Amanda Waller as a mom, I got The Wall. You weren't there for me like you were for Coretta...but don't think that means I trust you. I've had Lisa read your file."

and they both just stare at Warden and Warden is all: "Mama, I can't hate you. Even after everything you've done, especially what you did to Lisa...I can't hate you...but that's what makes loving you worse. Then you keep me away from my dad and try to hide it- You said he died!"

Amanda: "He did. Marcus Johnson did, at least."

and then Warden looking at Nick and he's all: "Do you even want a son? Especially one like me?" and Nick just doesn't know how to feel and doesn't answer right away and Warden just sighs.

Warden: "I'm not a kid anymore." and he looks at Amanda: "You've destroyed too much." and then he looks at Nick: "And you've missed too much." and he sighs: "Mama, I bought a house with Ronan. His dad doesn't know so don't even think about threatening him and it will be hidden...I want you to stay out of my life until I give you permission."

Amanda: "...Warden..."

Warden: "As for you, Director Fury...I don't need a dad. I've gone this far without one so don't expect me tryna ask you to play catch anytime soon. The least you can do is stay out of my way or else I won't just be coming after villains next."

and he gets up and he walks away and Amanda and Nick just sit in silence before Nick says: "...What did you do to that boy, Amanda?"

And Warden just walking to his ship and he takes out his phone and calls Ronan and he's all: "Hey, babe! How'd it go?"

Warden: "...I told my mom to leave me alone...Sh-She...She's lied too much and I need time." and Warden starts tearing up because he genuinely does love and admire his mother but now that he's not niave to her more underhanded side, and that he's become EVEN WORSE than she has, he just starts crying and Ronan is all: "I'm sorry, babe. I wish I was there."

Warnan coping with this where Warden has to tickle Ronan awake because Ronan WON'T LET HIM GO. Like, for a dude with one arm, THAT ARM IS STRONG AS HELL. And Ronan whining and he's all: "It's soooo stupid you do this. I hope you know that-" and Warden fixing his collar in the mirror and stuff and he's all: "I'll be back tonight. You behave." and Ronan chuckles but cuddles into bed the moment Warden gives him a kiss. IF WARDEN DOESN'T GIVE HIM A KISS BEFORE HE LEAVES, RONAN WILL JUMP OUT OF THAT BED AND TACKLE HIM.

Ramone strikes me as a guy who likes to sleep in when he can but Lisa is quite literally such an early bird. Like he'll wake up around 3 because he feels that she's gone and she's in the shower humming and stuff and when she comes out, Ramone just purposely catching her off gaurd to scare her and IT WORKS and she just scoffs and rolls her eyes but she kisses him and she's all: "Go back to bed, dear, okay?" and he does. Before she leaves, she puts on her favorite lipstick shade and kisses him and he likes it bc when he wakes up, he's covered in her lipstick kisses♡

LMAO, ANGELO HAS EYEBAGS FOR A REASON. He's up all night and he has to work at 4am so he's cursing out how stupid early that is and Martha groans sleepily and she's all: "You know...you could just NOT patrol Gotham at night so late. That is also a possibility-" and Angelo being all: "But then that'd mean no after patrol sex~" but like, him buttoning up his shirt and he looks down at her and takes a few minutes to specifically admire her. Then he goes and prays a bit early-

KIKAZARU MAN, HE HATES LEAVING HIS CUDDLE PILE but his ears flick when he wales up and he yawns and stretches and stealthily gets out of bed and dresses up but like, Watami and Vik will also sleepily remind him when he's forgotten something. Like Watami just tapping Vik's chest and Vik groaning tiredly and he's all: "Kikazaru, your phone." and Kikazaru is all: "Hmm? Oh, thank you." and he gives them little bites before be goes.

IF WE DO IWAZARU + SLEIGHT OF HAND, LITERALLY EUGENE JUST WAKING UP AND NOT BEING ABLE TO FALL ASLEEP BECAUSE IWA IS GONE. so Iwazaru carrying Eugene where Eugene's legs are wrapped around his waist and Eugene is holding onto his neck too. So Iwazaru brushing his teeth with one hand as his other arm holds up Eugene and Eugene just brushing his hair for him while he's back there. When Iwazaru gets dressed, Eugene just watching with him with heart eyes and when Iwazaru sets him back on the bed next to Sadie, Sadie is all: "Don't do anything stupid, asshole." and Iwazaru chuckles as he kisses them both and he's all: "Don't tell me what to do, princess~"

GKEKFKEKFK, VINCENT DOESN'T EVEN SLEEP. He sleeps twice a week for an entire day. Otherwise, he is totally up 24/7 so the problem isn't him getting up early, IT'S THAT HE NEVER SLEEPS. So Robert either has to seduce him to bed or he just picks him up and Vincent whining about how his work needs to be done but Robert is all: "No. Cuddle me."

Or like, HALT meeting SHIELD and AWOL and Lisa just being all: "Director Fury, my name is Lisa Song. These are my associates." and Warden is there like: "Hello, sir. Pleasure to meet you." and Nick Fury just looking this kid up and down and Coulson just looking the other way awkwardly as Maria Hill just looks at the ground.

Then Nick is all: "...Your mom is Amanda Waller you said?"

Warden: "Yes, Director of ARGUS."

and then Amanda walks in and she's all: "WARDEN, I told you to stay behind. This didn't concern you-"

Warden: "But mo- Ma'am, I already got my work done. I don't see the harm in not coming."

and Nick is all: "Yeah, Amanda, why didn't you want the boy to come."

Amanda: "That's Director Waller to you, Nicholas."

and Warden being so confused BUT LISA JUST COVERING HER MOUTH AND LONAN SMIRKING AND HE'S ALL: "So, uh, Fury....remember how you were telling me how my past actions can have consequences-"

Fury: "Nakai, take you and your team out of this room right now."

Lonan: "Yessir."

Warden: "Thanks for doing all the heavy lifting for us...and bringing Blight to us on a silver platter."

and Iwazaru ordering Blight to get into one of the prison vehicles and they all do it and Maikel glares at him but Warden is all: "Aw, don't look at me like that, Montoya. You gotta do what you gotta do to make a safer world."

OR LIKE, Kana getting tricked into doing something for HALT and she storms into Lisa's office and she's all: "YOU TRICKED ME. THIS HAS YOUR DECIET WRITTEN ALL OVER IT-" and she gets held back by Blaise but Lisa smiles at Warden and she's all: "I feel like she's actually looking for you." and Warden looks at her and smiles and he's all: "If you just took our offer to join, I wouldn't have to result to underhanded tactics....Thanks for your help, though."

and she just roughly pulls away from Blaise and she's all: "Enjoy your victory, Warden, it will be the last one I shall deliver to you."

"We'll see about that."

BUT LIKE, HE DOESN'T REALLY MANIPULATE RONAN; OR AT THE VERY LEAST; HE JUST CAN'T. Like Ronan just brings out such a vulnerable and honest part in him so imagine him just originally going to trick Ronan and trap his friends but while all of Ronan's friends are kinda still pissed with him (as they should be) Ronan being extra attentive and Warden reminding himself how much Ronan's relationship suffers so he just finally confesses before they get captured and gives them an alternate route and Ronan is a bit hurt but Warden is giving them the chance to go so he's all: "We are definetly talking about this later but...thank you." and he kisses his cheek.

Meanwhile, he goes back and Angelo is there like: "You were supposed to deliver the prisoners to us."

Warden: "I made a mistake, they found out and got away."
