Summary: While ex-supervillain!Gen was used to her shady past rearing its ugly head on occasion, she wished it could've picked a day when she wasn't on a first date with the hot baker who lives upstairs.
Reccer's notes: There is a delicious mix of pulpy superhero science fiction and domestic fluff. Killer dialogue, interesting characterisation, and an overall great pace throughout the fic.
[Short excerpt]"It's kind of a surprise," Adrianne admitted. "I mean, you always think superheroes are going to be, like, Batman or something, not the hot vet who lives on the second floor."
"Veterinary nurse, technically," Gen said, relaxing enough to reach for her wine again. "But continue."
"Maybe if you could read minds or shapeshift or walk through walls, I'd be kind of weirded out," she said. "But healing sounds pretty awesome." She smiled. "It's not like you get many evil geniuses building a criminal empire with the power to heal."
"Not many," Gen agreed. Some of the tension untwisted in her chest and she tucked her hair behind her ear as she asked, "You sure you're okay with this?"
"I'm okay with this," Adrianne promised. "I can't guarantee I won't ask you dumb questions and I'm probably going to want a demonstration at some point but I'm good." She smiled, as content and gorgeous as ever. "Magical powers definitely aren't a dealbreaker."
