Wow This Was Really Educational I Learnt Quite A Bit Abt Marx In Sociology And Connected To His Ideas

rhiannon stockholm syndrome-esque situation?? we know she’s an obsessive girlie… maybe you see something you’re not supposed to and she acts before thinking and next thing you know you’re tied up in her garage and she’s not wanting to kill you because of her little moral ‘bullies die’ code and eventually her need for human affection and love wins over and yeah maybe it’s weird!! but she is a little weird!

— summary: rhiannon kidnaps you after you see something you’re not supposed to…

— warnings: stockholm syndrome type of situation. kind of. but rhiannon is a sweetheart. so: fluff?. canon typical violence. kidnapping. unfortunately, i still don’t beta read before posting.

— a/n: oh i love this! i was too lazy to make a proper header, i might add one later (why am i lying?) but i hope you like this, anon <3

you were never meant to be in the position you’re now in. you were just in the wrong place at the wrong time, and one thing led to another. who would have thought that all the hard work of staying late at the gazette would never pay off the way you wanted? you only wanted one thing: recognition. you wanted to be seen by your pain-in-the-ass coworkers, not constantly overlooked despite your abilities. what you did not want was to walk out of the office, long past midnight, and witness a murder.

and what you wanted even less was for the murderer to notice you: walking out just as she drove the knife into a man’s body, over and over, covered in his blood as she straddled him.

she, because you recognized the figure instantly. the last thing you remember is the harsh impact of the knife's handle against the back of your head before everything fades to black and you lose consciousness.

truthfully, you’re surprised that you wake up at all. she could’ve killed you too. it seemed easy enough for her when she was stabbing that guy. either way, you’re not dead. your racing heart and the painful throbbing of your head prove as much. you are, however, tied up against something you can only feel, not see, behind your back. as the dim light settles over your vision, you notice the rough, cold metal pole you're bound to, the edges of rope digging into your wrists uncomfortably. you’re in a garage, a small, barely furnished space, and smelling faintly of gasoline. there’s a closed door to your left, a thin line of light beneath it. on the other side of that door, she’s pacing. you can hear rhiannon's steps, sounding quick and frantic and moving back and forth. you’re not sure how much time passes as you sit, still half-disoriented, piecing together what you last remember: she saw you. she knows you saw her. and now, she has to figure out what to do with you, the only witness.

rhiannon, who -in spite of kidnapping you- acts strangely kind.

it’s almost alarming how quickly she can shift from calculating to affectionate. one minute, she’s sternly reminding you why she had to do this, and the next, she’s making sure your restraints aren’t too tight, brushing a stray hair off your forehead. there’s a tenderness there that she doesn’t seem aware of, like she can’t help but want to care for you, despite the circumstances. "you weren't supposed to be there" she mutters under her breath as she holds a straw to your lips so you can drink. it sounds like she is reminding herself, rather than you.

rhiannon, who'll start yapping to you like you're not technically one of her victims.

she spends a lot of time talking, explaining her reasoning as if she’s trying to make you understand that this isn’t really so bad. rhiannon insists she only did this because there was no other choice once you saw too much. but her words falter every so often, and you can tell she’s trying to convince herself just as much as she’s trying to convince you. "think about it" she reasons. "you would've gone to the police. but I couldn't- I can't kill you, either"

"why not?" you demand, then. "you killed all these people on the news, too, didn't you?"

"but they were bullies" rhiannon points out matter-of-factly, as if that explains anything. "they were bullies and i- i protect people from bullies."

rhiannon, who is lowkey an awkward sweetheart!

you do learn, eventually, that she isn't an actual life-threatening danger to you. rhiannon makes sure of this from the start: when she notices you’re scared, she’ll switch gears instantly, giving you a painfully awkward but oddly sincere smile. she promises she doesn’t want to hurt you, that she’s “actually really nice” if you’d just give her a chance. she even tries to charm you in her own offbeat way, talking to you like this is a perfectly normal situation.

rhiannon, who starts caring about you. a lot more than she‘d ever admit.

she never had anyone waiting for her at home, even though you're obviously not there willingly. it's easy enough for her to forget about that part entirely, when she's with you after a long day at work, trying to make conversations and keeping you updated about the situation at the gazette. despite keeping you bound, rhiannon is obsessively attentive. she keeps popping back in to check on you, offering food, drinks, or blankets if you seem cold.

rhiannon, who begins to open up to you.

it’s only a matter of time before she starts hinting at how “special” you are to her. she’ll stand close, just within reach, telling you that nobody’s ever made her feel this way and that she “doesn’t want to be alone again”. and the thing is, instead of being freaked out, you actually understand. that's what freaks you out. instead of fear, you feel sympathy. sometimes you’ll catch her, sitting near you but looking lost in her own head. she’ll drop her guard just long enough to tell you something personal, maybe about her childhood or the way no one seems to see her.

rhiannon, who genuinely starts to like you.

she makes attempts at what might as well be considered flirting at this rate. these attempts are as unsettling as they are endearing. she’ll bring you flowers she found on the side of the road on her walks with tink, beaming about how she remembered your favorites (whether or not she got it right is another matter). if she feels extra daring, she’ll reach out to brush her fingers along your cheek, her voice dropping as she says, “you’re so pretty. has anyone ever told you that?"

rhiannon, who doesn’t really realize how much trouble she’s in…

...until you spark jealousy in her. she might be sitting with you, carefree until you mention somebody. maybe an ex, or a person who had asked you out on a date before she kidnapped you. either way, rhiannon starts fumbling with her hair at the mere thought before she knows what she's doing at all. it’s a strange mixture of protectiveness, control and anger that rhiannon can’t seem to place.

rhiannon, who has clearly underestimated your power.

she might have control over your situation, but she’s unaware of how much power you hold over her. every time you’re gentle with her, it chips away at her defenses, exposing that, at her core, she’s someone who has always craved acceptance. every soft-spoken word or lack of resistance from you leaves rhiannon more helplessly attached.

rhiannon, who forces awkward conversations just to have something to talk about.

she will sometimes just sit across from you and fire off random questions about your life, interests, or favorite foods, songs etc. she listens way too closely, her eyes slightly wide as she stores each detail like it’s a precious secret. she also uses every chance she can get to talk to you: she even insists on saying good night every evening with a soft smile, lingering at the door like she’s waiting for a response.

rhiannon, who finds herself craving your touch.

she gradually becomes more comfortable with casual touches: a brush of your hand, her leaning closer than necessary. it’s all very tentative and hesitant, like she’s still trying to wrap her head around being this close to someone. her dorky smiles and blushing every time she touches you suggest she’s totally smitten. she’s been touched starved for so long she’s forgotten what it’s like to have a shoulder to lean on. maybe one night, where she’s struggling to sleep, she sneaks into your space and leans her head down in your lap/against your shoulder. she doesn’t mean to fall asleep, really, and she’s actually so embarrassed to wake up to a nudge of your arm the next morning.

rhiannon, who is so excited for some “quality time” together.

on days when she has something “special” planned (like a home-cooked meal or a movie night), she bounces into the garage with a grin and an excited, “guess what i got today?” it’s like she can’t hide her enthusiasm, even if it’s something simple. at first you might think it’s something work-related that has her so giddy, asking: “did you get that promotion at work?” the thought of said promotion hadn’t even crossed rhiannon’s mind until you bring it up. “no, silly” she brushes it off, before revealing that you’re gonna spend some time together.

rhiannon who arranges almost date-like scenes for the two of you.

she eventually sets up little “date nights” in her garage: a picnic blanket on the floor, candles on the shelves, and some soft music. it’s clear she went overboard on making it feel cozy, and she glows with pride as she beckons you over, asking you to just “try and enjoy it”. during those nights, she’ll sit across from you, mumbling about how rare it is for someone to truly “understand” her after having a little too much of the wine she bought for the occaion. she makes an effort to believe you might stay willingly, someday, even if she can’t say it out loud.

rhiannon, who brings in tink to “meet you”.

one day, she enters the garage with her beloved dog in her arms, beaming as she shows her off. she makes tink paw at your hand, whispering, “see? she already likes you” this is all evidence she needed that you seem to fit right into this little world she's created, in which you're not the victim of her kidnapping. in her defense, tink is sweet as she lets you pet her belly.

rhiannon, who wins you over too, somehow.

she starts painting an imaginary picture of what it could've been like if you two met differently. she talks about going to the movies, some fancy restaurant, or meeting up after a long day at work. you'd be lying if you said you hadn't noticed her at work before: every time one of your shitty coworkers stepped over her, like they'd do with you too, your heart had ached a little more for rhiannon.

"i'm sorry," you tell her during one of these nights when she's found herself by your side again, the two of you watching tink with one of her toys. "that they didn't notice you, i mean"

rhiannon lifts her head from where it's been resting on your shoulder and glances up at you. it's the first time anyone ever took it upon themselves to apologize. she has beautiful eyes, you can't help but notice. "you deserve better than that" you whisper, with her close enough to hear. and, as if the proximity is not bad enough already, you raise your hand as much as the ropes allow you to and awkwardly slide it into hers.
