Jumping on the bandwagon that's going to be rolling through with new episodes of The Boys coming out and what's available.
Ive been listening to a song called "Forever Alone" on repeat with this chorus:
These nights are all for nothing Dancing like no one's watching Don't wanna go home Forever alone No one to care for me, no I'm like a superhero Riding on my own Forever alone
And it spurned this idea.
Ever since season 1, id love something with The Deep. Picking up after he was essentially exiled away and trying to cope. I had the previous idea he gets a new caseworker he starts getting close to though its a slow burn with his hesitancy with how he looks (sorry spoilers) and what he's been through. I can even do an OC of another SUPER too he encounters while living in Sandusky.
I also had it headcannoned from season 1 and their brief interaction in S2 so far, that Deep and Homelander had a very toxic, questionable dubcon, volatile relationship that Homelander was only really keeping Deep in the 7 because he was a good lay and a pretty face for promos. (Google the comics its essentially canon with Homelander to do it with team members)
So Deep did it to women because it was all he knew. He didn't have love or affection, only knowing attention through sex being used. Then he gets assaulted by the fan after he was already sent away and has the mental break down because he's not good enough for anyone including himself. Then to be reunited by the 7 as he wanted nothing more and gets shunned for it. You can see his face it broke his heart and gave me some big feels.
I'm open to being Deep or the OC. Happy to discuss. Comments screened.
