Summary
Depowered and has given up on attempting to escape, John lives with Butcher now. He mulls over being beaten and humilated daily but sometimes Butcher can be nice. That's all it matters no? As long as he can endure the pain, he'd be rewarded afterwards. It's all that matters. But Butcher has other ideas, so they keep chasing each other's tails in their shared cramped apartment.
A/N: I'M SORRY JOHN.

Summary
Cecil Stedman's first year as the Director of the GDA has concluded, and he's more stressed than ever. When a reality breach, however, drops a terrified, superpowered child (Homelander) into the forest of Maryland, Cecil expects an invasion, a weapon, or the beginning of another apocalypse. Instead, he finds eight-year-old John in a hospital gown.
Raising a frightened, superpowered child may be the most dangerous thing Cecil has ever attempted.

Summary
It's all Ryan's fault that Butcher's stuck with this pathetic little piece of shite, now that Homelander's lost his powers. Just because the soft wee lad can't bear to see one dad kill another. Something something trauma. As if this whole family isn't any therapist's wet dream - the rational part of his brain knows they should all go to therapy, whatever good that's gonna do. But he's only go so much time left. And he's only promised Ryan to keep that snivelling twat alive, not that he wouldn't make him suffer.
***
All the warnings, honestly. I just want them all to suffer, Homelander most of all. And the finale gave me ideas :)

Summary
Vought created two living weapons: one wrapped in a flag, the other hidden behind a mask.
In the silence between missions, Homelander becomes obsessed with the only person who never fears him. What begins as stolen moments behind closed doors spirals into a relationship built on dependency, secrecy, possession, and the desperate hope that two broken men might find something human in each other.
But in a world where love is a weakness and vulnerability is a liability, every moment of peace comes with a price.

Summary
The public of twenty years ago saw an unyielding, two-meter-tall god in a cape. The small town of the Appalachians sees John — a grumpy, near-sighted shift manager at a 7/11 who complains about expired coupons and takes care of his mutt, Bitsy.
Hughie Campbell thought his new job would be just another boring retail hell. He didn't expect his boss to be the most dangerous, vanished superhero on the planet. Sent by Butcher and the Boys to spy on the legendary Homelander, Hughie quickly realizes that the Vought propaganda lied about everything — including his height. John is older, cynical, works twelve-hour shifts, and handles Karens like a pro. But beneath the faded store vest, a predator is still watching. And he hears everything.

Summary
“It was the kind of taboo thing that everyone did. The kind of guilty pleasure that, at some point, became a normal part of life that Billy assumed everyone partook in. Like porn, or coke. Everyone and their mother did it, so there was no use getting into his head about it.”
Butcher hires the Doppelgänger to enact his revenge fantasies against his arch-nemesis, Homelander. He could have never imagined he’d get to do the real thing.

Summary
A small interest blossoms into something odd. Hughie doesn’t know what the hells going on anymore.
I wrote this is because I don’t think there’s enough Hughie/Homelander fics out there.

Summary
Butcher made a promise - every single Supe dead. So yes, he did unleash a deadly airborne virus on the world. And yes, he was the one who sort of blew up New York. But on the flip side, there was now a depowered Homelander zip-tied in his current cabin hideout, completely at his mercy. You're all fucking welcome.
(look, its all of ur fav homelander whump/torture tropes in one rly disastrous take on where s5 could go -- COMPLETED. BTW.)

Summary
"You're alive," Homelander says. He doesn't know what he's feeling. What he should be feeling.
"You're a fucking disappointment, John," his father says.
OR - Maybe if I'd raised you, I could have made you better. And not some weak, sniveling pussy starved for attention.
In which Soldier Boy does raise Homelander, for a time. It changes everything. (It changes nothing.)

Summary
AU of Season 3, diverging from Episode 2. Butcher doesn't take Temp V to fight Gunpowder, and Homelander actually suffers the PR consequences of his speech. He has a comeback plan and Butcher is forced to be a part of it, but that's fine—he has a plan of his own.
The scorched earth is briefly put on hold.
