“It can be a coffee,” Assault told her. “Or a beer after a night of patrols. Nothing fancy, low stress.”
Wait, is he actually trying to turn it romantic? Is this enemies to to allies to lovers?
But yeah, regardless of whether the in-universe shippers are right or not, I’m sure there’s plenty of out-of-universe shippers too.
“Low stress? You’re forgetting the part where I’d be spending more time in your company than I have to.”
Heh, nice one.
“Hon, you need to unwind. Relax. You’re too rigid, and I know for a fact that you haven’t had a boyfriend or a girlfriend in the two years I’ve worked with you.”
Yep, seems like he’s legitimately trying. In the same creepish way he commented on her looks immediately after she showed up to fight him that first time.
But maybe he’s just trying to get under her skin some more.
“Stop implying I’m into women, Ass.”
I suppose it’s only fair that she can shorten his name like that. :p
It’s appropriate.
“Well, you know, you keep turning me down, so it kind of makes a man wonder.”
Ugh, that old, awful train of thought. I can almost smell the entitlement through my screen.
“I’ve been too busy, and even if I did want to date, rest assured, you would be my last pick for company.”
There are probably fanfics that turn Battery into a tsundere. “No, see, she really does like him, but she refuses to admit that so she puts up this front–”
