Adrian Chase/Vigilante x Reader

Prompt: You just can’t seem to catch a break

Warnings: Cursing, Dubious consent, Spoilers for season 1 finale of peacemaker

{Part 1 }

"You are!" you shout, unable to hold back your amusement at Adrian's stammering response. Laughter bursts out of you, and a mischievous glint dances in your eyes. "You chased me all the way here? Adrian, you really take your job as a 'restaurant police' seriously, don't you?" you tease, unable to resist poking fun at him. "And how did you even get changed so fast? Do you keep that costume in your car or something?" Your laughter echoes through the alleyway.

Vigilante's face flushes with embarrassment, but he tries to regain his composure. "NO! Wait I’m not Adrian, I don’t even know who that is! He must be a great guy though. Whoever he is!” He says with frustration.

“It’s you?” You say with a smirk.

“UGH! Look! You ran off without paying! That's a criminal offense, so you have to pay!" he insists, his determination evident.

"Money?" you quip, raising an eyebrow playfully.

"No, like god dammit, I'm going to kill you now," he sighs, frustration tingeing his voice as he readies his fighting pose.

His comment makes you laugh even harder, your amusement spilling over as you lean against the alleyway wall. "I'm sorry, restaurant boy, but you're not gonna hurt me, let alone kill me!" you taunt.

"Just try and catch me, DORK!" you stick out your tongue mischievously before darting into the alleyway, inviting him to give chase. Vigilante grunts, his determination driving him forward as he sprints after you.

As the distance between you and Vigilante closes, you phase through a nearby dumpster, effortlessly blending with the shadows. Vigilante's eyes dart around the alley, searching for any sign of your presence. "O-okay! You're a meta-human, but that doesn't matter! I'm still gonna make you pay!" he declares, refusing to be deterred. He knows that you possess the ability to disappear and reappear at will, making you a slippery target. Yet, he remains focused.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blows in his direction, carrying a faint trace of your perfume. In that split second, you reappear behind him. With lightning reflexes, Adrian spins around, his fists clenched and ready for you to strike. You waste no time, channeling your phasing abilities as you lunge forward, your hand poised to strike his jaw. But at the last moment, Vigilante evades your attack.

As your fist passes through the air, Vigilante seizes the opportunity. He counters with a swift roundhouse kick, aimed for your stomach. However, you effortlessly phase through the blow, evading the strike. Unfazed, you phase your hand into his chest, disrupting his equilibrium and causing him to stagger backward.

"Got your heart~" you wink mischievously before phasing through another wall, leaving Adrian to grapple with the sudden intrusion and regain his footing. You continue to phase through the alleyway walls, shoving him playfully and taunting him along the way. "Woah! I can sense your malice? You must really hate me~" your disembodied voice echoes through the alleyway. "No matter, this fight is over! You think a trained hero like me would lose to you?" you laugh as you appear behind him, about to launch another attack.

In a split-second reaction, Vigilante spins around, attempting to grapple you, but his aim is a little off. His hands land on your breasts, and both of you freeze, shocked by the sudden intimate contact. A mixture of embarrassment and a blush colors your face, while Vigilante flexes his fingers in astonishment. "Woah! Just like in anime! That's crazy! I mean, what are the od-" Before he can finish his sentence, you slap him hard across the face, causing him to release his grip.

"HEY! Rude!" he exclaims, rubbing his cheek in disbelief.

"Y-YOU YOU PERVERT!" you yell, your voice filled with outrage. "Oh my gosh, you didn't want a fight. You just wanted to be a SCUMBAG! GASP! And that wasn't malice, was it? It must have been lust! I barely know you, you perv!" You continue to rant, slowly floating in the air, holding your chest protectively.

“And that’s why you dressed up like that so you could feel up vulnerable women! You’re no hero!” You yell.

“H-hey! I am a hero! I’m the Vigilante! I stop evil people like you!” He yells back at you pointing.

"I can't believe I was actually enjoying our fight! I am out of here!" With a final indignant blow of a raspberry, you fly away at lightning speed, leaving a bewildered Vigilante behind. He tries to give chase but you're flying faster than ever.

You flew through the night sky, your senses sharp as you searched for your handler's location. But your mind kept drifting back to the encounter with the masked man, Vigilante. The memory of his touch lingered, causing a hint of a blush to rise on your cheeks. It felt like hours before you finally spotted Harcourt's aura emanating from an old video store called Henenlotter Video. "That... That can't be the base of operations," you grimaced as you landed on the roof of the building. Phasing only your head inside the building, you observed four people engrossed in a discussion. The room had a high-tech feel to it, cleaner than its exterior suggested. As you looked around, you tried to make out their faces, and that's when you noticed one of them was your handler, Harcourt.

"Okay, so Waller has sent a new recruit to join us on our mission. She's the extra help we'll be getting this time around," Harcourt sighed, passing around your case files.

Adebayo flipped to the first page, cooing at your young Justice League photo. "Aw? But she's just a kid?"

"That's an older photo from when she was fifteen. Trust me, Harcourt and I had to watch over that brat on missions, and she was anything but sweet. She used her weird empathy powers disguised as sweet little hugs and gave me depression for a week. The kid was a menace! Remember, Harcourt?" Economos grimaced.

"Don't remind me. But that kid is now older and a part of this team, so once she arrives, play nice. I don't want another Valle Esperanza incident on our hands," Harcourt warned. “Her plane should have landed hours ago? But she hasn’t texted me to pick her up? Where is she?” She would ask checking your location with your tracker. "That's weird? Why does it say she's right on top of us?"

“What happened at Valle Esperan-OH MY GOD!” Adebayo shrieked, pointing to the ceiling where your head was partially phased in.

"For the love of God, get down here!" Harcourt yelled, and you obliged. "God, okay, everyone, this is Ghostmaker tw-"

"Spectra! I'm Spectra!" you interrupted, landing defiantly on a desk.

Harcourt glared at you. "No? It's Ghostmaker tw-"

"It's SPEC-TRA! I told Waller I'm not my sister!" you shot back, your glare matching Harcourt's intensity.

"God dammit! Fine! Spectra, aka (Y/N) (Y/L/N). Her powers are listed in the brief. Flight, phasing, and you know the rest. And please, no one lose them this time, SMITH?" Harcourt scolded, directing her glare at Peacemaker, who wasn't paying attention, absorbed in the file. He pulled out a picture and studied it intently.

"She looks familiar. Wait, I worked with Ghostmaker before. Babe was a fucking smokeshow! Tall and built like an Amazon. Of course, I don't like my women too muscular," he smirked, then compared the picture to your current appearance. "Man, you really let yourself go, Ghostmaker? Plus, now you're shorter?"

Your anger flared. "I'm her sister! See, this is why I didn't want to be named Ghost-"

Before you could finish your sentence, a familiar figure in a costume emerged from the bathroom, holding an icepack to his face. “Guys, I don’t think the swelling is going down-”

"YOU!" both of you exclaimed in unison, and you instinctively jumped back behind Harcourt.

"You've only been in town for a couple of hours. How do you know Vigilante?" Harcourt questioned, annoyance evident in her voice.

“I slapped him?” You would say nonchalantly.

“Adrian you said you got that from running into a wall?” Adebayo would question.

Vigilante would stand frozen trying to come up with something to continue his lie.

"Noo? I slapped him? Because he's the pervert who groped me after trying to kill me, might I add!" you accused, pointing a finger in his direction.

The team exchanged skeptical glances, unsure of whether to believe that Vigilante would engage in such behavior. Vigilante was shocked that his teammates and ‘best friends’ would entertain the idea that he would do something like that.

"Vig, did you?" Peacemaker asked, his tone filled with uncertainty.

"WH-NO! She stole from Fennel Fields and then skipped out on her bill! What's this criminal doing here?"

"Not denying the groping part, huh?" Economos joked, causing the tension to rise further.

"IT WAS AN ACCIDENT!" Vigilante exclaimed, his voice filled with frustration. The team's suspicion only intensified.

"So you did grope her, dude?” Peacemaker would say with a joking smile. “Boobs or Butt? Because one is way worse than the other.”

“Smith!” Harcourt would yell at Peacemaker shaking her head.

Vigilante's face turned bright red as he stammered in response. "No! It wasn't intentional! It was a mistake, I swear!"

"Sure, sure," you said, rolling your eyes while holding your chest. "Bet that's what he always says... the JERK!"

Harcourt interrupted the moment, her voice filled with irritation. "Enough! We have a mission to focus on. Ghostma-Spectra, Vigilante, put your personal issues aside. We need to work together to take down our target. Let’s finally begin the debrief so we can leave before midnight…”

The next night, you were assigned to do lookout duty with Vigilante. There was a secret town hall meeting taking place in Evergreen. The mayor was suspected to be a butterfly or butterfly sympathizer, rallying up the locals. Some residents had taken to worshiping the butterflies as benevolent gods and providing them with a new food source other than amber. You and the team were tasked with finding and destroying this new sect and their food source.

“This fucking sucks… why’d I get paired with you!” you whispered angrily as you peered through the binoculars, focusing on the building.

“I didn’t wanna get assigned to you EITHER!” Vigilante whisper-yelled back.

“Both of you shut the hell up! Watch Adebayo and Economos as they enter the building. We don’t want the butterflies to catch on, and DON’T lose them! Smith and I will provide recon and investigate the building, and NO arguing!” Harcourt's voice came through the earpiece, trying to maintain control.

You pouted as you lay in the grass, still looking through the binoculars. Both of you sat in silence before Vigilante cleared his throat multiple times, seemingly wanting to speak.

“God damn! What!” you snapped at him, taking your earpiece out. Vigilante looked at you, his eyes wide before huffing and folding his arms.

“I didn’t grope you, by the way,” he stated matter-of-factly.

“What?” you sat up, frowning at him.

“Earlier! You made everyone think I’m the weirdo, but you ran into me. You... you practically put your boobs in my hands!” Vigilante raised his voice a little, actually sounding hurt.

"WHAT!" You blushed as you stood up, getting closer to him, sticking your finger in his chest.

"Listen here, buddy! I did NOT! If I wanted to put my boobs in your hands, they would be!" You huffed as you went back to your binoculars.

"Wait, so does that mean you wanted me to grope you?" Vigilante tilted his head, looking confused.

"No, you dingus! I... oh, fuck!" You stared through the binoculars at the team running back towards you two, and you quickly put your earpiece back in. Harcourt's voice filled your ear, scolding you for not paying attention. The butterflies had discovered the team, and a gunfight had broken out. Harcourt was calling for backup, but you and Vigilante were too busy arguing. The scolding continued until the team returned to the base at the video store.

Fed up with Harcourt's lecture, you phased away mid-ear lashing. Although you messed up at the end of the mission, it was considered a success because the team had discovered that there were still butterflies and their supporters in Evergreen and the surrounding states. You sat out front on a curb as the group finished up their debrief. Adrian was the first to come out, looking for you. Once he found you, he fidgeted with his fingers, staying silent for a minute.

"Saw you got in trouble with Harcourt and the rest of the team," He finally spoke up.

You remained silent.

"I could drive you back to your hotel! They're finishing up now, but Harcourt is still PISSED at you," he chuckled, eliciting a long sigh from you.

"Why? Aren't I a criminal? Or are you gonna try more funny business?" you asked, rolling your eyes while still looking down.

He rolled his eyes at your statement. "I was trying to be nice! But you are right?"

"About the funny business?" You looked confused but had a slight smile.

"N-no! About being a criminal part!"

"Aw, you big dork. I'm kidding, and I'll go and pay in the morning. Once I get settled, of course. Ms. Waller gave me funds for a month," you explained as you got up.

"We can go together... just so I can make sure... you pay!" he stammered out.

You shrugged as you walked up closer to him, examining him intensely. He tensed up with you being so close.

"Relax, I'm just examining your aura. Your intentions look pure, so I'll go with you tomorrow. Tell Harcourt I’m going to the hotel," you said, starting to float and quickly kissing his cheek before taking off.

Adrian held his cheek, looking bewildered. He jumped when he heard someone clear their throat.

"Dude creeping on the newbie?" Peacemaker teased as Adrian removed his mask.

"No! If anything, I hate her! She's so... WEIRD! Did you see that?! Now who’s the scumbag!" he yelled at Peacemaker.

"Bro! You gotta be kidding..." Peacemaker laughed.
