Present day.

Venom walked through alleys and streets, until he found it. He looked up, and on top of the pub was a sign that said "Kuro's". Kurogiri? -Asked Venom in his head, and walked into the bar. There was a little room, only to be led to the stairs. The stairs were dark, narrow, and circled in a spiral. They felt really long, until eventually, Venom entered a wide, medium-lit room. He looked to his right, and saw Kurogiri behind the bar, drying some glasses.

-Well, well, if it isn't the one and only Green Venom. -Venom took his suit jacket of, and left it in a hanger, before he walked to the bar, and sat down in a chair that was surprisingly comfortable. -Just in time for our new whiskey. -Said Kurogiri, as he poured him a glass.

-Thanks Kuro. -Venom grabbed the glass, and took a sip. It was nice, but left a bitter sting in his mouth. He was about to take another sip, when all of a sudden, he heard footsteps coming down from the stairs. He waited patiently, until Dabi came down from them. Venom turned his head back to his drink, unintrested.

-Oh hey. -Said Dabi, in his monotone voice. -You drinking your feelings again, little brother-in-law? -Venom put his glass down aggressively, and shot Dabi a death glare. In response, he put his hands up in sign of peace, and walked up to him, taking the seat on his right.

-Is someone else coming? -Asked Venom, taking another sip of his drink.

-Yeah, Toga, and Mr. Hands. -Joked Dabi. Venom really hoped he'd say no, he really wanted to be with himself tonight. -Speak of the devil. -They turned around because of the footsteps from the stairs, and Shigaraki and Toga came down. Toga's eyes sparkled as he saw Venom, and quickly threw herself to him.

-Greeny!!! -Venom stumbled in his seat a little, before Toga got off him. -So is this it? Is this our date? -Venom was about to say something, but Dabi spoke.

-Nope! Still clinging on to scar-face. -Venom supposed he was talking about Shoto, so he spit back.

-"Scar face"? Look who's talking, bacon bits. -Dabi put his glass down, and looked at Venom with a "Bitch?" expression. 

Shigaraki took the seat on Venom's left, and Toga simply stayed standing up, but clinging onto Venom from the back. They drank silently. It wasn't awkward, it was comforting. Dabi put his empty glass down, and spoke.

-Why do people misunderstand villains so much? -Dabi was simply looking straight ahead, as everybody listened. -I mean sure, we do bad stuff. We rob banks, we kidnap children, maybe even kick some babies on the way. But we all have our reasons, right? -Dabi looked around to everyone. -We want something. Revenge, safety, money, food. We could get all that, if we weren't villains too. It was society who marked us wrong. Who made us wrong. If it wasn't for the way society treated me, I wouldn't be a villain, would I? There was something, or someone who triggered us. For me, it was someone. My father. -Dabi looked around, as if expecting someone else to talk.

-I wanted to be a hero. -Everyone looked at Venom, who was now talking. -Look at me now. In a bar, with the league of villains. Sometimes I wonder, that if I would've sucked it all up, all the pressure, would I become a hero? And would I be happy? Yes, Dabi, there is someone or something that triggers us. For me, it was Kacchan. -There was another long silence.

-I still don't get why you don't join us. -Dabi turned to Venom. -You have nowhere to go, right? You can stay with us in the bar. Look, I get it, the league of villains, has a certain... Image. But the truth is, we're like a family here. Right guys? -Dabi turned to Toga and Shigaraki.

-Well well, the big guy got a little sentimental. -Teased Shigaraki.

-Shut up, Chapped lips. -Dabi spit out to him, and Venom chuckled.

-No, sorry guys. -Venom looked at everyone. -I work alone. But we can go out drinking together every once in a while. -Venom grinned, and Dabi chuckled, as Kurogiri served their second round.

-So, you wanna tell us about more boyfriend drama? -Dabi asked, as he chugged down his whiskey.

-Oh, and now you wanna hear it? -Venom asked, slightly annoyed.

-Well yeah, it's kind of entertaining. -Everyone else laughed at Dabi's comment.

-Alright. -Venom put his glass down, and put his hands together. -We almost fucked once. -Everyone looked at him with a "Bitch, pardon?" expression. Toga whined, and started throwing a tantrum.

-At 16 my brother was drilling you?!

-No! I said we almost fucked once. -Venom corrected Dabi. -But, yeah, we were 16, I'm pretty sure everyone was fucking someone at one point. Mina and Sero, Jiro and Momo, or Denki, Bakugou and Kirish– Venom stopped midway as he realized something. -Kirishima... Yeah, Bakugou and Kirishima. Why didn't I think about it before?

-Uhhh, sorry, what? -Dabi and everyone else were confused, but Venom simply stood up, and headed to the stairs.

-Sorry boys, Toga. -Venom grabbed his suit jacket from the hanger, where he left it, and put it over his shoulders. -But I have to pick up a damsel in distress.
