Hero was betrayed and sold to Villain by their ex "Heroes" team.

(Cw: Guns, chains, mentioned interrogation, betrayal, morally gray hero)

---------------------

Villain interrogates Hero, but they keep their defiant, arrogant attitiude. At some point Villain threatens to return them. And even calls Hero's ex Leader to be more convincing.

Villain puts the phone call on speaker. And after a moment there's responce: "A return?...do you have the receipt?"

(V:) "A rec- Why would I have-! This is ridiculous!"

(L:) "Sorry, no returns then"

(V:) "Well what am I supposed to do with them?! They're fucking annoying, but I'm not killing them yet! That's no fun!"

(L:) "Not my circus, not my monkey"

The call gets cut. And Villain just stands there for a moment with a phone in their hand. Then, slowly takes the remote out of the pocket. Pushes the button. Releases Hero from the chains.

(V:) "Go kick their ass".

(H:) "I'll need a gun"

Villain just snorts laughing.

(H:) "...a rifle"

Villain just shakes their head, holding back a miscivious smile.

(H:) "A bazooka"

(V:) "I can agree for Bazooka. Just because I'm curious"

Villain "Nooope. I just spontanically wanted to be a good guy, but you obviously wouldn't believe me. So I played to make you trust me"

Hero: "PLAYING WITH US ISN'T MAKING YOU THE GOOD GUY"

Villain: "Oh, but yelling like a maniac makes you?"

Villain: "Wow. Just Wow. After all your dramatic monologue I really want to hug you bro"

Hero: "Like... Hug me with a knife?"

Villain: "Is that how you do it in your homeland...? I mean- I can do that. Is that a culture thing?"
