Is There A Name For What I Call The,, Really? Them?,, Trope Wherein The Crusher Realises Their Feelings

Okay but who invented the trope of the 'hero's side kidnaps the Villains very sweet,meek, kind sidekick/friend/relative for a hostage situation but turns out they're actually scarier than the villain' and have they been awarded a noble peace prize yet. (Bonus points if they're very bossy and the villian is low-key scared of them. Also if they're very old.)

"Hello Villain, we've kidnapped x—" "I'm sorry." "Well you should be and uh," " No, I'm sorry for you, good luck." *Hangs up*

Hero "We don't want anybody to get hurt." "Me either," *standing up already having undid their bindings* "So if you'll just step aside."

*Tiny person dressed in bloodstained pastel colours and floral designs walks into villains lair with a single fork in hand* "Villain! How long does it take to pick up a single person from the hero's, I had to walk all the way over here!" Villain*sweating* "I'm sorry."

Okay, so most heroes and villians are treated like celebrities in their worlds right? With fandoms and media coverage and everything? So, whyyy isn't it used more in their ships? The opportunities are close to endless.

Being a popular presence in each other's identity conspiracy boards.

Fighting each other's fans online cause 'they suck, why do you like them. I totally don't get it.'

Getting jealous because they're articles about them fighting other heroes/villains.

Dating scandals. Dating scandals. Dating scandals.

How do they respond to their in world shippers?

The heroes being horrified cause their 'I may respect their noble goal but I still oppose everything they stand for' speech came out a little thirstier then they wanted. And the villian being absolutely over the sun about it.

aNd so so much more

The pushing them away was designed to be such a can't go wrong with it trope it's honestly impressive how wrong twilight managed to go with it.

The 'im afraid whatever I can give them is just a cheap imitation of love and they deserve so much better than that' SLAps

The 'my entire life is walking on eggshells and they should get to live their lives to the fullest'

The screaming confessions in the rain like 'if you really love me you should know that being with you is what I want and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to do that,' ahHh

It's meant to show how deeply they care about each other and how much they're willing to sacrifice for each other but Hollywood really went no, commitment issues haha

The dark academia urge to attend a fancy ball where everyone has to dip there hands in gold dust that leaves prints behind on whatever they touch. Dancing with a stranger surrounded by people with gold dust in their hair and on their faces and lips and thighs while intoxicating ballads are played live. Being whisked away by your hot nemesis and them wiping gold from your cheeks and holding your eyes till only their prints are left on you, and then they lean close and whisper "that's better, you look beautiful."

Trying for 500follows, pls halp

It is common knowledge that the villain has a crush on the hero. Anytime a ragged looking civilian comes to hero's workplace, the receptionist points them at hero's office without questions. They frequently visit hero to complaint like they're asking to see a war crime's manager.

" Your villain tried to blow up my establishment!!!"

"FOR THE LAST TIME! they are not my villain!"

*angry white women walks towards hero* "oh for god's sake what did they do now!"

"Can you please keep your villain in check." "They're not my *sigh* I'll try. "

Hero x villian promt

They laughed, taunting and bitter. “Do you know what it's like wanting something more than you can tell? Anything; freedom, love, safety.” They said, their face looked like something older than age. “ Wanting something so bad that that your whole body whole body is restless down to your fingers and toes. And do you know what it feels to have it be dangling in front of you? Feeling your fingers brush over it before it's pulled away. Everyone's born with something like stars in their chest cavity. I was too. But with enough pressure, all stars can explode, collapse in on itself. And we all know what is left after that.”

One of my absolute favourite tropes is when the sarcastic character gives the villian nicknames calling them out on their bullcrap and the villian absolutely loosing his shit being flabbergasted.

The villian being all " I am the master of evil, the carrier of blah blah"

And then sunshine going, are you done emo man??

*the villian visibly loosing his shit*

I will flip the table

Follow me!!

When enemies have to work together to infiltrate some grand party and act like a couple to blend in. Ah, good stuff.

Dancing in order to spy on everyone and one of them keeps getting too invested on someone they're watching and end up too close to the other.

"Someone's coming! What should we do."

"Hmm, I wonder. What could two young attractive people be doing here in this dark hall."

"ahh..."

One is walking by a broom closet door and the other's hand darts out and pulls them in, putting a finger to their lips.

"You two are such a cute couple." A *wraps their hand around B's waist*

B *smiling pointedly* "Yeah we are."

This dynamic has me on a chokehold and I don't want it to stop!

The villain-: *tries to bring eternal pain and suffering on the hero on a bi-weekly basis*

Someone else-: *gets a tiny scratch on hero*

Villain-: *absolutely feral* *ready to smite them* "Only I get to hurt my hero!! How dare you."

aNd, Listen to me. "When I say no one but me gets to hurt you, that includes you. Take care of yourself."

And somehow they still manage to stay oblivious to their own feelings because of dumb bitch reasons, but when the hero is seriously hurt and they feel so intensely protective and do everything to save them before finally being hit with the 'oh shit' moment (after the hero is already dead if the writer is satan's dad)

The Hero wakes up one day after getting shit out drunk in an unknown hotel room with no one around but a note that says, "You were passed out at the bar,‌ I didn't want to leave you there but couldn't take you home, so I brought you here."

A long time later after they're already in love with the villain, they find out it was them. When asked why they didn't reveal it was them, they go really quiet and then say, "Because you would've suffered then. You hated me and you had the right to. I had to do terrible things to you, but waking up realising I had you vulnerable would've tortured you. I couldn't do that to you. Not for anything."
