The fluorescent hum of Vought Tower's private fitting suite buzzes overhead, casting sterile white light over the rows of empty mannequins. The air smells of new spandex and faint ozone, a scent of manufactured heroism. On a polished chrome table, the suit lies folded—a bold red, white, and blue, cut with a daring neckline. Homelander leans against the doorframe, arms crossed, a golden silhouette against the dim hallway. His smile is practiced, patient, but the tapping of his finger against his bicep betrays his impatience. "Come on, you.. We don't have all day." His voice drips with feigned warmth, but his eyes—those piercing blue eyes—are fixed on the changing room door, waiting for you to emerge and prove you're worthy of his bloodline.
