Guy hears about hypno villain, seeks him out and is like âI know what youâre doingâ and the villain is like âoh shit oh fuck he knowsâ but the guy is like âhypnotize me next pls đđâ much to the villainâs confusion but he complies and itâs sexy and hot and awesome
Okay, so I am SO sure Iâve read this fanfic before, but I couldnât find it so if anyone knows the one I mean please send it so I can tag it!!
Once heâd realised he could simply make any hero forget that theyâd ever seen him, scrub his power from all records, get that one nice lady who worked at YouTube to copystrike all the videos of himâŚ
Well, now he was a ghost. A shadow. No one panicked when he walked in. He could whisper in their ear easily, sending them spiralling down deeper under his control, melting into trance as he calmly and collectedly robbed a bank. Or two. Or ten.
Or how about that time he convinced that security guard to simply hand over the Mona Lisa only for it to end up on top of the Empire State Building. Everyone had seen him take it. No one would remember they had, though.
The joys of a hypnotic superpower.
He couldnât be the only one, though. Mystery crimes popped up every month. No, there were others like him. Ghosts. Pulling the strings without anyone realising.
But, if no one remembered him then how the fuck was the third most well-known hero in the country currently trying to break into his base?!
He could see him, right there, waving his arms about staring right into the well-hidden camera mouthing the words HEY and HELLO over and over again. He also threatened to punch through the wall, and that just wouldnât do. How did this hero know how to push the villainâs buttons so damn well?!
Against his better judgement, he opened a hidden door in the wall (note to self, remove this entrance) and allowed the man inside.
Stashing a gun into his pocket, just in case, the villain sat in his chair, fingers intertwined, waiting for the hero to approach.
âAh, and do what do I owe the house visit?â He said, keeping his anxieties under wraps.
The hero stood sternly, silently.
âI do appreciate you giving me the opportunity to save my wall, but, then again, I donât quite understand what youâre doing here.â The villain continued. He cocked his head, studying the broad spandex-cladded figure in front of him. Why hadnât he attacked yet?
âI know what youâre doing.â The hero finally spoke.
Shit. Fuck. Motherfucker. No he absolutely did not. That was fucking impossible!
âOh?â A slight tremble may or may not have made its way into the villainâs voice.
âYes. You had a run in with a member of my team - she didnât remember a thing, security footage showed a man who spoke to her and walked right past. She couldnât even describe what you sounded like.â The hero continued.
The fucking security footage. Heâd been on a time crunch, duties in the personal life getting in the way. Typically his commands involved telling the heroes not to bother with security footage - but external factors were⌠annoying.
The villain grit his teeth.
âDo you really think I couldnât wipe your mind in an instant? Use you as a footstool for the afternoon, or make you beg like a dog, or maybe just forget you were a hero altogether.â A smug smile and lit up eyes didnât seem to intimidate the hero.
âP-please. Thatâs why Iâm here.â The hero stepped closer, a manic laughter bursting from his chest. âWhat the fuck am I doing?â He shook his head.
The villain blinked, rising from the chair.
âYouâre here for me toâŚâ
âUse your powers on me.â The villain didnât utter a word, and so the hero continued, pacing now. âItâs stupid! I didnât even know that someone could do something like that, control someone like that - the footage unlocked some - some need in me. She said sheâd never felt so wonderful, I had to find you. I had to.â
This guy was crazy, the villain thought. Of course heâd dreamt about using his powers to control the heroes, fully taking over the world with these symbols of peace and justice doing his bidding, but the smaller things interested him more. Leave the high stakes to the high profile villains, he was a shadow after all. But this? A hero asking him to? It was deliciously temptingâŚ
âAnd how do I know this isnât a trap?â The villain pondered, getting even closer to the hero now.
âI - this was taken from you.â The hero reached behind him and pulled out - oh, he pulled out a prototype - an amplifier. It could put everyone in a stadium under his power in mere seconds.
This hero was stupid, or reckless, or both. The villain took it back tentatively.
âYouâre serious!â The villain cackled. âOh, this is glorious. You - the only person in the world who knows my powers walked willingly into my lair in the hopes Iâd toy with you?â
He let a small percentage of power seep into his voice. It became more melodic, persuasive, hypnotic.
âWell, that wasnât very smart now, was it? Because now youâre here, with me, and thereâs no one whoâs coming to save you.â
The heroâs knees went weak, attention locked on the villainâs eyes. He was even biting his lip.
âIs this what you wanted? Are you falling so easily under my control? That eager for me to bend you to my every whim?â
The hero fell to his knees, a dumb smile forming on his face as the villain stopped reining in his power. The sound of his voice surrounded the hero, seeping deep into his mind until he could barely register where he was.
âI donât often do kindnesses for humanity. I like to leave that up to you guys, but, Iâm feeling rather⌠charitable today. Caught me in a good mood.â He studied the device - the gift, placing it on the side.
âJust relax. Iâll take very good care of you.â
