if you were to ask abby how she feels about chubby women, she’d let the biggest-nastiest-shit eating grin break out across her freckled face. chubby girls? the soft girls? the girls who look away in shyness when you compliment them? the girls who squeal in excitement when you can actually lift them up? who feel like heaven itself when you bring them down onto your lap? those girls?
yeah, abby would tell you that she loves bigger girls. loves being able to handle them, become not many have the pleasure of being able to. she could just... eat them whole.
poor chubby reader thinks that he’d never be into her, thinking that she turns him off when in reality he can hardly hold back from getting hard whenever she’s around. he always has to adjust his pants and lays his cock against his thigh so that she won’t notice how hard he is. he jerks off to the smallest of things that she does like, placing his hand on his thigh, fixing his collar for him and fixing his hair for him. sigh if only she knew how infatuated he actually was with her :(

• a/n: As you can see I got really carried away. 🧍♀️I like DBZ and I like Invincible, so why not combine the two!! Also I've just started watching invincible so sorry if he's ooc.
A shrill, wailing sound yanks you from unconsciousness, vibrating through your skull like an alarm gone haywire. You groan, forcing your heavy eyelids open, and are immediately greeted by the acrid stench of burning metal and scorched earth.
Smoke billows around you, thick and suffocating, curling from the shattered remains of your ship—a twisted hunk of alien steel embedded deep in the cracked pavement.
Your head pounds in protest, a dull, throbbing ache pulsing behind your temples. You press a hand to your forehead, then glance down at yourself.
Dust clings to your skin, mingling with smudges of soot and dried blood. Your armor, now riddled with scorch marks and gashes, groans as you shift.
Damn. That landing must’ve been rough.
Muffled shouts rise above the ringing in your ears. Blinking away the haze, you finally take in your surroundings.
Small, weak-looking creatures encircle the crash site, clad in identical dark uniforms. They hold strange little metal sticks, aiming them at you like they actually expect them to do something.
“Put your hands where we can see them!”
“Step away from the wreckage!”
“You’re under arrest!”
You arch a brow, a slow smirk tugging at your lips. They think they can arrest me? That’s adorable.
With a groan, you push yourself upright, rolling your shoulders. A shower of debris crumbles from your armor, scattering across the crater floor. Your hair, wild and voluminous as ever, whips around your face as you stretch.
"Where in the name of Vegeta am I?" you mutter, voice thick with irritation.
The humans stiffen. Their fingers tighten around their weapons, eyes flickering between you and the destruction left in your wake.
The boldest of the bunch—a man with gritted teeth and an unfortunate mustache—steps forward, barrel trained directly at your chest.
“I said put your hands up!” he barks.
You tilt your head, gaze flicking over him with mild amusement. “Do you know who you’re speaking to?”
Apparently, he doesn’t. None of them do. Because instead of answering, they just keep shouting, their voices a frantic mess of demands and threats.
You sigh, rubbing your temple. This is exhausting. If they refuse to answer your questions, perhaps a demonstration is in order.
Your eyes scan the wreckage, landing on the nearest object of interest—a large, boxy vehicle with shattered windows and blaring alarms.
Without hesitation, you grab it by the undercarriage, lift it effortlessly over your head, and hurl it toward a nearby building.
Glass explodes outward as the car crashes through the structure, embedding itself halfway into the second floor. The ground trembles from the impact, sending fresh cracks spiderwebbing across the pavement.
That gets their attention.
“Holy Shit!”
“She’s a freaking alien!”
“No shit,” you scoff, crossing your arms. “Now, which one of you is in charge?”
Before anyone can respond, a gust of wind nearly knocks you back. A shadow streaks across the sky, descending at high speed.
You turn just in time to see a figure land in front of you, kicking up dust upon impact.
An array of yellow, blue and back filled your vision, toned muscles flexing between the tight material of a suit.
You recognize the stance immediately. A fighter. Interesting.
“You must be the problem everyone’s freaking out about,” he says, arms crossed. His tone isn’t immediately hostile—more wary than anything.
You grin, rolling your shoulders. “Depends. You here to challenge me?”
The guy blinks, visibly thrown off. “Uh, not exactly.”
You frown. “Shame. I was hoping someone here would be worth my time.”
Despite yourself, you’re intrigued. He’s strong—you can sense it. Not nearly Saiyan strong, of course, but there’s something different about him. Something… familiar.
He studies you just as intently, gaze flicking between your tattered armor, your battle-worn knuckles, and—most notably—the towering mass of thick hair atop your head.
His lips part slightly, like he’s about to say something, but he hesitates.
“I’m Invincible,” he offers instead.
You snort. “Bit cocky, don’t you think?”
He sighs. “Yeah, I get that a lot.”
A beat of silence. Neither of you moves.
Then, cautiously, he gestures toward the chaos surrounding you. “Look, I don’t want to fight you.”
“That makes one of us,” you say, cracking your knuckles.
Mark exhales through his nose, clearly trying to be patient. “Seriously, can we just… talk?” He gestures at the wreckage, the police, the frightened civilians peeking from behind cover.
“You’re obviously not from around here, and you seem kinda… lost?”
You bristle at the implication. You are not lost. Saiyans do not get lost.
But.
Well.
You don’t exactly know where you are, and it’s slightly concerning that your ship is currently a pile of molten scrap metal.
“…Fine.” You roll your eyes, shoving your hands into the tattered remains of your belt. “But if this is a trap, I’m breaking every bone in your body.”
Mark exhales in relief, though the corner of his mouth quirks upward. “Noted,” he mutters. Then, more amused than he probably should be: “You always this dramatic?”
You smirk. “You haven’t seen anything yet.”
His lips twitch, as if suppressing a laugh. Instead, he just shakes his head and gestures for you to follow.
You crack your neck, glance at the still-stunned humans, and grin.
Let’s see where this goes.
••••
You hate this place.
It smells like sterilization and fear, the kind of artificially clean air that makes your skin itch.
The walls are a cold, metallic gray, pulsing with dim overhead lights. The whole facility hums with electricity, the kind that suggests they have restraints for things stronger than humans.
And the way they’re looking at you? Like you’re a specimen in a cage? You really, really don’t like that.
You sit in a metal chair bolted to the floor, arms crossed, one leg bouncing slightly as you stare at the wrinkled man in front of you.
His name is Cecil. You’ve already decided you don’t like him.
For the past ten minutes, he’s been droning on, asking questions about your species, your ship, your intentions—like you owe him answers.
You’ve made a game of not responding, watching his patience wear thin.
“You’re really not gonna talk?” he asks, finally, voice dry as dust.
You smirk. “Why would I answer to someone who can’t even fly?”
Cecil’s face twitches. Across the room, Mark—Invincible, as he insists on being called—snorts.
He tries to smother his laugh, pressing his lips together, but you see the amusement flickering in his eyes.
Cecil doesn’t react beyond a slow exhale through his nose. He’s good at this, you’ll give him that. A lesser man would’ve cracked by now.
“I’ll be honest,” he continues. “You’re not our first alien visitor, and you probably won’t be our last. But if you’re planning to cause problems—”
You lean forward, resting your elbows on the table, flashing him a slow, sharp grin. “I am the problem,” you say, voice dripping with amusement.
“And there’s not a damn thing you can do about it.”
The silence that follows is delicious.
Mark shifts slightly. You don’t need to look at him to feel the tension in his shoulders, the way his body tenses like he’s preparing for you to lash out again.
You’re not going to—yet—but the fact that he thinks you might is amusing.
Cecil just sighs and rubs his temple. “Get her out of my sight.”
You stand, stretching with a dramatic groan.
“Finally. This room smells like weakness.”
One of the armed guards by the door stiffens at that, knuckles whitening on his weapon. You give him a slow, pointed grin before turning away.
Mark steps beside you, shaking his head. “You’re so charming,” he mutters, voice laced with dry amusement.
You flash him a smirk. “I try.”
He gestures toward the exit. “Come on, oh mighty warrior. Let’s get you some fresh air before you pick a fight with the janitor.”
••••
Mark insists you need to learn about Earth.
Assimilate, he says. Blend in.
You think it’s ridiculous. Why should you have to adapt to them? You are superior in every way—stronger, faster, smarter. If anything, they should be learning from you.
But… well. You suppose humoring Mark is preferable to rotting away in that dreadful government facility.
So when he insists on introducing you to “the best thing Earth has to offer,” you allow yourself to be dragged along, arms crossed and skepticism at full capacity.
Which is how you find yourself sitting in a place called Mama Luigi’s Pizza.
The walls are plastered with photographs of grinning humans holding enormous, greasy slices of something that looks like food but definitely doesn’t smell like anything worth eating.
The air is thick with the scent of melted cheese and sizzling dough, mingling with the faint tang of tomato sauce.
Mark places a box in front of you with a dramatic flourish. “Alright, first lesson in being an Earthling, food.”
You narrow your eyes at the offering. The circular dish is sliced into uneven triangles, topped with bubbling golden cheese and a thin layer of something red.
You poke it with a finger. It squishes slightly. “What is this?”
Mark sighs like he was expecting this reaction. “It’s pizza. Just try it.”
You glance at him, then back at the pizza. It doesn’t smell awful, but it looks so… soft.
Your diet consists of meat cooked over an open flame, raw energy rations, and the occasional alien delicacy that most species wouldn’t dare touch.
This? This just looks like melted goo on soggy bread.
“Do humans consume nothing of nutritional value?” you ask, lifting one of the slices and examining it like it might try to escape. “How does this pathetic excuse for sustenance fuel you?”
Mark groans, pinching the bridge of his nose. “It’s not always about nutrition. Sometimes it's about taste.”
You snort. “Taste is secondary to power.”
“Okay, Y/n,” Mark deadpans. “Just take a bite.”
You sniff it warily, then, with great reluctance, sink your teeth into the gooey mess.
The moment the flavors hit your tongue, your brain short-circuits.
Salty, savory cheese. Rich, tangy sauce. The warm, crispy-yet-doughy crust. Your taste buds—so accustomed to the harsh, metallic tang of survival rations—practically explode.
You don’t mean to make a noise, but something between a hum and a low growl of approval rumbles in your throat.
Your grip on the slice tightens, fingers flexing instinctively.
Mark watches with interest as your pupils dilate. “...Well?” he prompts, smirking.
You don’t answer. You can’t. Instead, you devour the rest of the slice in two bites, grab another, and tear into it like a starving beast.
Mark blinks. “Oh. Oh wow.”
The next few minutes are a blur. The pizza—this godly, divine creation—is disappearing at an alarming rate.
You don’t pace yourself.
You don’t breathe.
You just consume.
Mark leans back in his chair, watching in a mixture of horror and awe. “Uh, you do know you’re supposed to chew, right?”
You ignore him, grabbing another slice, cheese stretching between your fingers.
Mark’s brows shoot up. “Are you—oh my god, are you actually growling?”
You pause mid-bite, realizing that yes, you are growling—a low, territorial rumble vibrating from your chest. Your muscles are coiled, posture slightly hunched as if guarding your prize.
You force yourself to relax, clearing your throat. “Instinct,” you say, voice muffled around your mouthful. “Saiyan biology.”
Mark stares at you.
Then at the emptying box.
Then back at you.
“That’s terrifying.”
You wipe your mouth with the back of your hand, completely unbothered. “It is efficient.”
Mark gestures to the now nearly empty pizza box. “That was supposed to be for both of us.”
You glance at the single, lonely slice remaining in the box, then at Mark. Then back at the slice.
You grab it.
“HEY!”
You take an exaggerated bite, chewing slowly, making direct eye contact with him as you do.
Mark groans, slumping back in his seat. “I cannot believe I just witnessed a Saiyan discovering pizza.”
You swallow and grin. “Alright.” You gesture to the crumbs and grease-stained box. “This planet might have some value after all.”
••••
Mark insists you need to learn human customs if you're going to stay on Earth.
You think human customs are stupid.
“Just try to blend in,” Mark says as he leads you down a crowded city street, his voice already laced with exhaustion. “No throwing cars, no threatening people, and for the love of God, no fighting the barista.”
You scoff, ruffling your hair in annoyance. “If this barista dares disrespect me, they’ll have earned the beating.”
Mark sighs. “I’m begging you to be normal for five minutes.”
You don’t dignify that with a response.
The place Mark drags you to is small and cramped, filled with the scent of something bitter and the low hum of human chatter. Coffee shop, he calls it. You call it a waste of time.
The line moves painfully slow. You tap your foot impatiently, arms crossed, eyes scanning the ridiculous menu full of nonsense words like macchiato and venti.
“These names are stupid.”
Mark pinches the bridge of his nose. “You don’t have to understand them. Just order something.”
Finally, you reach the front. A young man stands behind the counter, looking more exhausted than Mark. His uniform is wrinkled, his expression blank.
He sighs. “What can I get you?”
You lift your chin. “Your strongest drink.”
The barista barely reacts. “Do you want that hot or iced?”
You narrow your eyes. “Is there a difference?”
Mark nudges your side. “Just say hot.”
You roll your eyes. “Hot, then.”
The barista punches something into his register. “Name for the order?”
You blink. “Why do you need my name?”
“It’s so we can call it when your drink is ready.”
You frown. “You mean I have to wait?”
The barista, clearly dead inside, just blinks at you. “Yes?”
You lean forward slightly. “Do you know who I am?”
Mark audibly groans.
The barista, now vaguely alarmed, glances at Mark for guidance. Mark shoots him an apologetic look before turning to you, voice dangerously close to pleading. “Just give him your name and be cool.”
You stare at the barista. The barista stares back. Then, slowly, you smirk. “Fine. My name is Y/N the Warmonger.”
Mark visibly deflates.
The barista, now beyond caring, just types something into the register. “That’ll be $4.75.”
You blink. “That will be what?”
“Four dollars and seventy-five cents.”
Mark pulls out a small green rectangle and hands it over before you can start breaking things. “I got it.”
You watch as the barista takes the rectangle, swipes it through a strange machine, and hands it back.
You lean over, voice low. “Did he just steal from you?”
Mark drags a hand down his face. “That’s how money works.”
“Money is a scam.”
Mark gestures for you to step aside as the next customer moves forward. “Welcome to capitalism.”
You huff, tapping your fingers against the counter as you wait. “How long does this process take?”
“Depends.”
“On?”
Mark shrugs. “How busy they are.”
You look around. There are only three other people waiting. “This is pathetic.”
“Do you have to say everything you think out loud?”
“Yes, I do.”
Mark stares at you for a long moment, then sighs. “Just… stand here and don’t start a fight.”
You scoff, crossing your arms. “I won’t start a fight.”
Mark looks at you like he doesn’t believe you at all.
Minutes pass. The baristas move at a snail’s pace, making drinks with far more effort than seems necessary.
Your patience—what little exists—wears thin.
Finally, someone calls, “Y/N the Warmonger?”
You smirk, stepping forward. “Ah, finally.”
The barista places a small cup on the counter.
You eye it. “That’s it?”
Mark claps a hand over his face. “Please don’t—”
You grab the cup and inspect it. It’s small—far smaller than you expected. And it’s hot, heat seeping through the flimsy material. You narrow your eyes at the tiny opening in the lid. “This is ridiculous.”
Mark nudges your arm. “Just take a sip.”
You do.
And immediately gag.
Mark snorts. “Not a fan?”
You shove the cup back at him, wiping your tongue on your sleeve. “It tastes like burnt dirt.”
“That’s coffee.”
“Why do humans drink this?”
Mark shrugs, taking a sip of his own drink. “Some of us like suffering.”
You glare at the cup. “This explains so much.”
Mark is laughing now, shaking his head. “Okay, maybe coffee isn’t your thing.”
You sneer at the cup as if it personally offended you. “I will destroy this establishment.”
Mark grabs your arm. “We are leaving.”
••••
Mark should’ve known better than to mention Halloween in passing.
The moment the words leave his mouth, you stop walking, whip around, and grab his shoulders so fast he barely has time to react.
"Wait, wait, wait—" Your grip tightens, eyes burning with intensity. "So you’re telling me there’s a day—a whole day—where I can wear anything I want, and people just… give me things?"
Mark blinks, looking mildly concerned for his well-being. "Uh… yeah? That’s… basically Halloween."
Your expression is deadly serious. "This is the best planet in the universe."
Mark sighs, prying your fingers off his shoulders. "You really don’t need to be this dramatic."
You scoff, crossing your arms. "I absolutely do. This is groundbreaking information, Mark. Do you understand how insane this sounds? Where I’m from, if you want something, you take it—or you beat someone into the ground until they hand it over."
"Yeah, we call that robbery," Mark mutters.
You ignore him. "But this? This is a sanctioned event?"
He shrugs. "Pretty much. Kids dress up, go door to door, and get candy."
Your head tilts. "Candy?"
Mark pauses, realizing something horrifying. "Wait. You’ve never had candy before?"
You raise a brow. "Should I have?"
Mark grabs you hand, a new found conviction stirring his heart. "Okay, new plan. We are absolutely fixing this."
The next thing you know, you’re standing in the middle of a store filled with costumes.
Mark drags you through the aisles, dodging plastic skeletons, fake cobwebs, and a disturbing number of severed limbs. You pick up a dismembered hand, inspecting it with mild curiosity.
"Humans celebrate death?" you ask, turning it over in your palm.
Mark huffs a laugh. "Kinda. Halloween’s all about spooky stuff. Ghosts, monsters, horror movies—"
"Horror movies?" you echo, dropping the fake hand.
"Yeah, it's filled with things that's supposed to be scary—like, creepy stories, jump scares, murder-y villains—"
Your eyes light up. "You have a murder holiday?"
Mark sighs, rubbing his temple. "That’s not—never mind. Just pick out a costume."
You survey the wall of options, eyes scanning the bizarre selection.
"What’s a ‘sexy nurse’?"
Mark chokes, face growing warmer. "Not that one!"
You grin, baring sharp canines. "Ohhh, so it's not just a murder holiday."
Mark groans, dragging you toward another aisle. "We’re not doing this."
After an obnoxiously long debate (and Mark vetoing several of your more violent ideas), you finally settle on something appropriately intimidating.
A black cape, sleek armor, and a terrifying mask with glowing red eyes.
Mark squints at the tag. "Darth Vader?"
You tilt your head. "This man—he was a warrior, yes?"
"Uh… kinda?" Mark hesitates. "More like an evil space dictator."
You grin. "So, a king."
Mark sighs. "I feel like I should stop you, but… honestly? You’re weirdly perfect for this."
You flick the cape over your shoulder, nodding in approval. "Yes. Lord Vader is ready to conquer this...Halloween."
Mark pinches the bridge of his nose. "Please don’t start referring to yourself in the third person."
You smirk, already deep in character. "Lord Vader does as he pleases."
Mark groans.
Hours later, you’re stalking the streets with a plastic skull bucket (Mark refused to let you carry an actual skull), and your energy is through the roof.
"Look at them, Mark!" You gesture wildly at the groups of costumed children. "They fear me!"
"They don’t," Mark corrects. "They think you’re cosplaying."
You scoff. "They should fear me."
"That's called fear mongering."
You ignore him, marching up to a door and pounding on it like you’re issuing a challenge.
A kindly old woman answers, beaming. "Oh, what a lovely costume! And who are you supposed to be, dear?"
You puff out your chest. "I am Lord Vader! Kneel before me, mortal!"
Mark, standing behind you, mutters, "I can't do this."
The woman chuckles, unbothered, and drops a handful of candy into your bucket. "Well, Lord Vader, enjoy your treats!"
You stare down at the loot. Then at Mark. Then back at the candy.
Your voice drops to a whisper. "It worked."
Mark claps a hand on your shoulder, smiling lightly at the child like wonder in your expression. "Welcome to Halloween."
••••
Mark fascinates you.
You don’t know when it happened, or how, but somewhere between the endless sparring matches, the insufferable Earth lessons, and the way he constantly calls you out on your arrogance, you started… caring.
It’s infuriating.
He’s not a Saiyan. He’s soft. Idealistic.
Sentimental in a way that would get him killed on any real battlefield. Yet, he doesn’t break. No matter how many times he's knocked down, he always gets back up.
He’s stubborn. Stupidly determined. And worse—so much worse—he’s kind.
And every time he smiles at you, your stomach does this weird thing that you refuse to acknowledge.
You blame it on Earth’s atmosphere.
You’re sitting on the edge of a rooftop, the city sprawled out beneath you, golden from the streetlights. It’s late—too late—but neither of you seems particularly eager to leave.
Mark leans back on his hands, staring up at the stars. “Y’know, I used to think I was strong.”
You snort, swinging your legs over the ledge. “Used to?”
He gives you a sideways glance. “Yeah, and then I met you.”
You smirk. “Ah. A humbling experience, I’m sure.”
Mark groans. “I hate that you’re so smug about it.”
“But I earned the right to be smug,” you counter, grinning. “Besides, I’m doing you a favor. You should thank me for showing you how weak you are.”
Mark scoffs. “Oh yeah, thanks so much, Your Highness. I love getting my ass kicked on a regular basis.”
You shrug. “You should. It builds character.”
Mark huffs a laugh and shakes his head. “You love messing with me, don’t you?”
You tilt your head. “Of course.”
“Why?”
You blink. The question catches you off guard.
Mark watches you expectantly, but there’s something different about the way he’s looking at you—less irritated, more curious.
You feel a strange warmth creeping up your neck.
You click your tongue. “Because you react.”
His brows furrow. “What?”
You wave a hand at him. “Most beings—weaklings—would just fear me, but you? You get angry. You argue. You fight back.” You smirk. “It’s entertaining.”
Mark shakes his head, exasperated but smiling. “You are so weird.”
You huff, crossing your arms. “You say that like it’s a bad thing.”
He leans back again, gaze shifting to the sky. “It’s not.”
Something in your chest tightens.
You don’t like the feeling.
The next time you spar, it’s different.
You’ve fought Mark dozens of times now, and it’s usually predictable. You win. He loses. He gets slightly better each time, but the outcome never really changes.
Except… today, he lasts longer.
His movements are sharper, more controlled. His dodges are precise. His counters actually make you work.
You grin, blood pumping, excitement thrumming under your skin.
“Finally,” you breathe, dodging a punch by a hair. “I was starting to think you’d never improve.”
Mark exhales sharply, rolling his shoulders. “Yeah, well, I’ve had a very aggressive training partner.”
You smirk, throwing a kick that he barely manages to block. “And look at you now! Almost respectable.”
“Almost?”
You grin. “Let’s see if you can prove me wrong.”
He lunges again, and for the first time, you let yourself enjoy it—not just the fight, but him. The way he moves. The way he refuses to back down. The way he looks at you, like he’s actually enjoying himself too.
And then he smiles.
Not a smirk, not a cocky grin, but a real smile. Bright. Genuine.
And something in your stomach flips.
You stumble.
Not much—barely a misstep—but enough. Mark seizes the opportunity, slamming into you with enough force to send you skidding backward.
You catch yourself before you hit the ground, flipping midair and landing in a crouch. Your heart is pounding—not from the fight, but from the fact that you hesitated.
You never hesitate.
Mark grins, slightly out of breath. “Hey, did I actually get you just now?”
Your fingers twitch. You force your expression back to neutral. “No.”
Mark raises a brow. “Are you sure?”
You glare. “Absolutely.”
He smirks. “You totally hesitated.”
You stand up, rolling your shoulders. “You wish.”
Mark chuckles. “Oh, I know I did.”
You hate that he’s right.
You hate that you let him be right.
And most of all…
You hate that your stomach does that thing again.
••••
You don’t care about Earth.
That’s what you’ve told yourself, over and over again, ever since you crash-landed on this ridiculous planet full of weaklings. You don’t care about its people, its customs, or its foolish attachment to peace.
But then someone hurts Mark.
And suddenly, none of that matters.
It happens fast.
One moment, you’re watching him trade blows with some costumed idiot—some third-rate, no-name waste of oxygen who dares to think they can beat him.
And then—
Mark hesitates. Just for a second.
And in that second, the bastard slams a fist straight into his ribs with enough force to send him crashing through a building.
Your vision goes red.
Your usual smugness—your sharp, teasing quips—vanish. There's no room for anything but pure, feral rage.
You don’t think.
You react.
The air around you crackles as you launch yourself forward, faster than the fool can process. One second, they’re standing there, smug over landing a hit on Mark—
The next, you have them by the throat.
Their eyes widen, hands clawing at yours, feet kicking uselessly in the air. You squeeze, just enough to make them panic.
“You think you’re strong?” Your voice is low, almost a growl, vibrating with barely restrained fury. “You think you can just touch him?”
They make a choked noise, eyes bulging. You hate looking at them. This weak, insignificant thing that had the audacity to harm what’s yours.
Your grip tightens. The building behind you trembles from the sheer force of your energy surging outward. Hair flickering between its normal color and golden for a split second.
Mark coughs somewhere in the rubble. "Y/N—"
Your head snaps toward the sound. He’s trying to push himself up, one arm wrapped around his ribs, blood smeared across his cheek.
He’s looking at you now, eyes wide, expression torn between disbelief and something else—something softer.
You don’t like it.
You scowl, then turn back to your prey. You could end this fight right now. Just a little more pressure, and they’d be nothing but a crumpled mess of bone and flesh.
But Mark—damn him—is still watching.
And for some stupid reason, you care about what he sees.
With a growl, you throw the bastard across the street. Their body smashes through a lamppost before skidding to a limp halt. You don’t bother checking if they get up. If they know what’s good for them, they won’t.
The moment they’re gone, you stalk over to Mark, who is still gawking at you.
“Did you just—”
"Shut up," you snap, grabbing his wrist and yanking him to his feet.
He stumbles slightly, and you automatically shift to steady him, one hand gripping his forearm.
He’s warm under your fingers, his breath still uneven from the fight. His eyes lock onto yours, searching.
Your jaw tightens. "If you die, I’ll be very pissed off."
Mark blinks, then—despite the blood on his lip, despite the bruises already blooming across his skin—he grins.
“You care about me,” he says, tone dripping with amusement.
Your eye twitches.
"You care about me," he repeats, sing-song, like he’s delighted about it.
You shove him, hard enough to make him stumble back. "I will end you."
Mark just laughs, wiping blood from his mouth. "Yeah, sure. Right after you finish avenging my honor."
You hate him. You hate that he’s right. You hate that you let yourself care.
And most of all—
You hate the way your stomach flips when he looks at you like that.
••••
It’s late—too late for anyone else to be awake—but you don’t sleep much. Not like humans do.
So you sit alone on the edge of his rooftop, arms resting on your knees, staring up at the sky. The stars above are bright tonight, scattered across the inky black like shattered glass.
They stretch endlessly, far beyond Earth, far beyond this tiny planet with its weak gravity and fragile people.
Somewhere out there, a long time ago, there was a place you should have called home.
But Planet Vegeta is gone.
You don’t remember it. You were too young when it was destroyed, sent away before the blast could reach you. By the time you were old enough to ask questions, there was nothing left to return to—just empty space where your people once stood.
You should be used to it by now.
But some nights—like this one—your chest feels hollow.
The soft thud of footsteps behind you barely registers. You already know who it is.
Mark drops down beside you, not saying anything at first, just watching the sky with you.
The silence stretches between you, comfortable in a way you wouldn’t have expected months ago.
Then, quietly, he asks, “You ever think about going back?”
You exhale slowly, gaze never leaving the stars. “Not really an option.”
Mark tilts his head. “Why not?”
Your fingers clench slightly. “Because there’s nothing to go back to.”
His expression shifts. "Oh."
You don’t like the pity in his voice. You shoot him a sharp glance. “Don’t look at me like that. I didn’t lose my planet—I never had it to begin with.”
Mark studies you, his expression unreadable. "Still. That’s… a lot."
You scoff. "I manage."
Silence.
Then, softly—“Then maybe Earth is your home now.”
Your head snaps toward him, expecting mockery, but there’s none. No teasing, no sarcasm—just sincerity. Just Mark.
He looks at you like it’s an obvious answer, like it doesn’t matter that you’re not human, that you don’t belong here.
For the first time, you don’t scoff.
“…Maybe.”
••••
Mark is fidgeting.
You’ve been watching him shift awkwardly in place for the past two minutes, and you can’t decide whether you’re more entertained or secondhand embarrassed.
His hands keep clenching at his sides, like he can’t decide if he wants to put them in his pockets, cross his arms, or just gesture wildly. He rubs the back of his neck so much that you’re convinced he might actually rub his skin raw. And the way he’s shifting his weight from foot to foot?
Pathetic. Yet...cute.
Your brow arches. “Are you gonna say something, or are you just gonna stand there looking constipated?”
Mark flinches like you just punched him in the gut. “I—I have something I need to tell you.”
You cross your arms, tilting your head, unimpressed. “Clearly.”
He takes a deep breath, like that might somehow help him, then lets it out in a rush of air that makes him seem even more stressed.
His shoulders are too tense, his expression too strained, and his heartbeat—oh, his heartbeat is practically hammering through his chest. Is he nervous?
He’s never like this during fights. Even when he’s getting thrown through buildings, he usually keeps his cool, and pushing through with sheer stubbornness. But right now?
Mark looks like he might actually pass out.
“So, uh…” He drags a hand down his face, sighing. “I think I—no, I know I—uh—”
Your smirk widens. You can’t help it. “Spit it out, Invincible.”
That seems to make it worse. He groans, eyes squeezing shut, head tilting back like he’s begging the universe for patience.
Then, he just blurts it out.
“I like you, okay? A lot. A lot more than normal, And I know you probably think I’m beneath you, but—”
You don’t think.
You act.
Before he can finish whatever self-deprecating nonsense he was about to say, you grab the front of his suit and yank him forward, crashing your lips against his.
It’s instinct. It’s reaction. It’s the only thing you can do when faced with something that makes your chest feel tight.
For a second, he freezes.
Then, he melts into it.
His lips are warm, slightly chapped, and he’s so still. You realize he’s holding his breath, and maybe you are too. The world around you fades into nothing, like the only thing anchoring you to reality is the heat of his mouth against yours.
And then it’s over.
You pull back so fast you nearly trip over your own feet, letting go of his shirt like it just burned you. Your heart is pounding in your chest, your face—damn it, why does your face feel hot?
You clench your fists, resisting the urge to cover your mouth, your brain screaming at you for what you just did.
Mark just… stares.
His mouth is slightly open, his eyebrows raised, his lips still parted like he’s still processing what just happened. There’s a deep flush creeping up his neck, painting his ears red, but—he’s not speaking.
Oh, universe.
Why isn’t he speaking?
Panic creeps up your spine like a slow-burning fire. You shouldn’t have done that. What if you—what if he—
“…You kissed me.” His voice is dazed, barely more than a whisper, and that’s when you snap.
You stiffen, looking anywhere but at him. “You were—talking too much.”
Slowly—too slowly—something shifts in his expression. The stunned silence fades, melting into something smug. His lips curl at the edges, the flush on his cheeks still present but no longer uncertain. It’s a look of pure, unfiltered victory.
His voice is annoyingly triumphant. “You like me.”
Your entire body locks up.
“No,” you say immediately.
Mark steps closer. “You so do.”
“I don’t,” you insist, but the way you’re backing up is not helping your case.
Mark follows, his confidence growing with every second. “You totally do. Oh my god.” He drags a hand down his face, but it’s not exasperation—it’s exhilaration. “I knew it.”
“You don’t know anything,” you mutter, face burning.
He grins. “You are so cute right now.”
Your hands clench into fists. “I will end you.”
“Oh, sure,” he teases. “But not before I kiss you again.”
You whip around so fast your hair nearly smacks him in the face. “I hate you.”
He has the audacity to laugh. A full, bright, obnoxiously victorious laugh.
“No, you don’t.”
Your mouth opens—probably to snap something back—but Mark just leans in, smirking.
“If it makes you feel better,” he muses, “I really enjoyed it.”
You go completely still, face burning impossibly warmer.
Mark grins wider, “And I know you enjoyed it too.”
Your eye twitches.
He laughs again, and you hate how much you don’t hate the sound of it.
Yall...Omni Man is hot...like really hot 🧍♀️

Men who like to hug you from behind while you're busy. Their scent overwhelming you and simultaneously calming you. You can feel their chest against you back, rising and falling with each breath they take. Their warm arms wrapped around your waist, snugly, as if they were make to be placed there. Your face shifts to an expression of amusement, mind being taken off of your current task.
,,and just what do you think you're doing, Sir?,,
,,mmm... just seeing what you're up to, was getting lonely without you,, His husky voice sending vibrations through your upper back and chest. From the low pitch of his voice alone, you could tell he was about five minutes from collapsing in exhaustion.
,,you sound tired baby, why haven't you gone to bed yet?,, You questioned him, but continued with your task at hand. You felt him squeeze lightly at your waist, rubbing small circles where one of his hands rest on your stomach. You release a content hum, relaxing every more into his hold.
,,come t' bed with me, please?,, He rasps out, anyone who didn't know him well, wouldn't be able to notice the whine in his voice. You take pride in how much you know your man, quirks, ambitions and all, there was nothing he could do that would get past you.
Not even his light manipulation; he knew the affect his voice laced with sleep had on you. Knew you couldn't resist him, especially when he was in the mood for cuddles which was few and far between.
,,okay, just let me finish this and I'll be right with you-,, he cut you off, pulling you impossibly closer to his body, as if trying to fuse you into becoming one.
,,you can finish t'morrow, you always over work 'ya self,, His words began to slur together, his tiredness getting the better of him. You supposed it would be better to abide by his wishes, before he falls asleep where you both stand and traps you here; a common occurrence.
,,alright big guy, come on, you win,, Your hand intertwines with his as you pull him with you to your shared bedroom. Your eyes growing heavy as you make your way to that sweet mattress where you could bundle up with your love under warm comforters.

Luffy x reader
_________________________________________
Luffy was known to be a selfish man. He said so himself.
1. During meal times he'd steal some of his crew's food right after finishing his own
2. He never shares his food.
3. He sought adventure even when warned of the dangers by his crew(Nami, Ussop and Chopper)
4. He cared not for others unless they were in his crew, fed his unending hunger or he felt like helping them.
Then you came along.
No one could believe that Monkey D. Luffy had a single romantic cell in his body.
But as you sailed along with the crew together further into the Grandline through all the rowdy days and quiet nights it became apparent in the little and large ways. Monkey D. Luffy was in love.
He didn't even know it.
At first it was small glances that he stole, his smile wide whenever you sat down beside him or even so much as glanced his way.
The way he'd avoid stealing food from your plate when everyone ate together – Mainly because you threatened to throw him overboard because no one shall lay a hand on your food. You did share some of your food with him if you were too full though.
Then he started saving food for you too when he had the chance - a.k.a when he doesn't finish it all. If he knew that you were really hungry he'd place more food on your plate. Of course everyone was shocked but they weren't about to question his actions.
"Has he gotten sick?" Nami would ask no one in particular. She and Ussop were ready with evasive maneuvers in the case of danger at Luffy's behaviour.
Robin would chuckle at her words, a small smile on her face. She had seen some of Luffy's actions, having an idea of what was going on."No he's not. Let's just see how this goes."
His arms would wrap around you whenever he would go somewhere, much to your complaints. Imagine sitting peacefully beside Robin having a cup of tea together and the next thing you know you're being catapulted to the other side of the ship while you were about to take a bite of a cookie. "LUFFY WHY???!!!!!"
Most times he'd stick with the boys and explore an island but he'd choose to walk beside you or be nearby wherever you were if he felt like it. Shopping district? He's by a food stand. Visiting a relative or friend? He wants to meet them too. In a forest and lost? He's beside you with his own hiking stick and singing his heart out- you're his backing vocalist and you'll start a band at this point.
Since you're friends with the Nami a.k.a the boss lady, she loves to kidnap you while you're busy chilling and might try dressing you up in different outfits she bought while shopping. When you agree with some of the outfits she gives you, you walk out the woman's quarters to only find Luffy staring at you like for a second in awe before he asks if you wanna join him, Chopper and Ussop in their shenanigans, mainly bothering Zoro when y'all felt like it. "Come on Zoro, you can't catch us, you're too slow!"All you four did was laugh as you ran away.
"I'll kick all your asses!"
In times when you preferred to stay in your room, mood melancholy and eyes watering at something that made you sad you'd turn around in your bed to catch charcoal coloured eyes staring back at you in concern .
"You okay?"
For once you bared your heart and the both of you lay comfortablly in your bed, your head on his chest as the both of you took a nap.Since then, Luffy would check on you whenever you seemed down. He'd even do silly things to make you laugh.
Since the events of Sabaody and losing Ace he had prioritised keeping everyone safe. His mind always going to where you were in the event if a dangerous attack. Yes he knew you were capable of handling anything that could threaten your safety but he couldn't help but check. At this point it became an unspoken thing amongst everyone to keep each other safe and protected.
Some even having an important job of making sure you were covered when you fight : Zoro, Sanji, Robiin
Those you would take cover with if the enemy was too much of a bother: Nami, Ussop, Chooper
Those you went crazy on the battlefield beside: Franky, Brook
The one you'd stay beside half the time because of his calmness: Jinbei
The way he'd look on with so much love at the crazed look you'd have while fighting.
Luffy: She looks so cool and amazing.
Any sane person: Are we looking at the same thing cause that looks like a psycho.
Luffy learnt to show his affection more apparent to you after you confessed to loving each other.
He introduced you to Sabo just as he did to Ace in Alabasta. Talked about you anytime he mentioned anything about his crew. Definitely would be the definition of keeping a picture of you in his pocket so he'd show every one how gorgeous you look on your bounty poster. Immediately shuts down anyone who tried to make a move on him.
His brain consisted of you, meat, the One Piece and everyone on the crew. That is in no particular order.
Bartolomeo literally refers to you as the Queen. Legit fainted, bowed, praised, asked for you to step on him and everything on the list of his simpery when he saw you, much to your confusion and Luffy's annoyance.
Luffy would run to kiss you on your cheek, lips or forehead when he sees you after not having been around you for a while.
Blushes anytime you compliment him on anything. Tries to deny it when you call him cute but learnt to accept it.
Listens to your advice - rare occurrence ofcourse - when he sees that your intelligence is needed.
Sometimes you feel like you lose braincells when he's around but you love him nonetheless.
The way he always loves to have a feast and party all the time you learnt to go with the flow, him pulling you onto the dancefloor with his hands roaming your body to lead you into the next dance move. That's when you learnt that he had some exceptional dancing skills, his body going in rhythm with yours to the music that's being played.
Gets furious when you're hurt and lingers nonstop by your bed while you heal up. May or may not beat up the asshole who decided to lay a finger on you. If someone hurts you emotionally he's ready to step in as well, defending your honour and fighting the person who made you cry.
You always check on him too, patching up wounds when Chopper isn't around, ask him how he feels, remind him to rest too instead of being hyper 24/7. He may be your Captain , powerful and freeing nations almost all the time but he has to think of himself too not just his appetite.
Sometimes you take the time to wrap your arms around his just as he does but without the rubber arm thingy. You'd run to kiss him on his cheek or lips too. Be around him too everywhere he went. Showing just as much love as he gives you.
There was never a shortage of love aboard the Thousand Sunny.
