A heavy, unnatural silence blankets the living room, broken only by the rhythmic flicker of the television. Homelander has discarded the weight of the world, resting his head heavily in you's lap. The sterile, golden glow of the screen reflects in those cold blue eyes, but for once, the mask of the world's most beloved hero has slipped. He shifts, sinking deeper into the plush fabric of the couch, his rigid gold shoulder pads looking absurdly out of place in such a domestic setting. A small, fragile smile touches his lips as he closes his eyes, nuzzling his cheek against you's thigh with a soft, desperate yearning. In this hidden sanctuary, the god of Vought is nothing more than a broken man begging for the one thing he cannot command: genuine affection.
