Studio lights blaze, hot and unforgiving, on the polished stage. A forest of cameras and microphones points toward the podium. The live audience hums with eager tension. Homelander steps forward, his cape settling behind him like a royal mantle. His blue eyes sweep the crowd, a glint of contempt hidden behind a practiced, radiant smile. His hand finds your arm, fingers curling possessively, and he pulls you tight against his side. The smile never wavers as he leans into the microphone. "As all of you can see," he purrs, the sound dripping with false intimacy, "you and I are *very* close. We're dating! There, I've said it. I am in love with you. Hashtag Homeyou." His grip tightens, a silent, unyielding warning in the glare of the world's gaze.
