Request by Ghost_Guard_13So this one is where the reader is running throughout the city from the avengers, skidding through alleys and scaling over buildings of new york, climbing up fire escapes until their stuck on one of the tallest buildings in the city. Their cornered. They decide death would be better than having whatever punishment this supposedly ruthless team could come up with, so you fell backwards, plummeting towards the ground, however instead of hitting the ground, you fell through a portal and halted in mid air, held up by magic, surrounded by the avengers and strange himself. They try to intimidate you, but you refuse to say anything, and instead tell them to just kill you already, completely serious. Strange finds this, well strange, and tries a different approach

Pairing: Stephen Strange x Villain!Reader

Warning(s): suicidal tendencies [briefly mentioned...read at your own discretion], self-deprecating reader, villain-ish reader, Stephen being a lil cutie, language (you guys should be used it by now), kinda evil avengers?...I think I got everything; lemme know if I didn't :)

The sound of your shoes pushing against the pavement echoed off the empty walls of the desolate alleyway as you ran. You needed to get away; needed to escape.

The Avengers were on your tail, trying to capture you because you made a mistake. One stupid mistake that could cost you your freedom...and possibly your life.

You continued to run, constantly switching alleyways, scaling up and down buildings--anything to get away from the righteous group of so-called superheroes.

"You've got nowhere else to go, Snowflake."

You rolled your eyes. Out of everything that the Tony Stark could've nicknamed you, he chose Snowflake. How original...not like you hadn't heard that one before.

Out of the corner of your eye you spotted a fire escape, and quickly changed course towards it. As you got closer, you jumped; your hand barely grasping the last rung of the ladder.

Pulling yourself up was a challenge, but one that needed to be overcome--and fast. Quickly, your feet began to move with impeccable precision; each step up pushing you closer and closer towards your goal--freedom.

When you pulled yourself up off of the fire escape, you were greeted by the beautiful skyline of Manhattan. The golden tendrils fizzled down from the sun and encased the buildings with an ethereal glow--it truly was peaceful. Maybe I should climb skyscrapers more often.

The sound of repulsers charging up broke you out of your daze.

"Now, there is nowhere else to go. You're coming with us, Elsa."

You shook your head, "I'm not going anywhere with you!"

The patriotic man with a plan stepped forward; "Ma'am, all we're asking is for you to come and partake in some question-"

You laughed, "I'm sure your 'questioning' isn't as pleasant or simple as you make it out to be. I'm not going to conform to your demands, and all that's going to get me is a prison cell or an early grave. So, excuse me if I wish to pass up the opportunity."

The Widow sighed, "There is no way out of this. We'll take you by force if necessary."

Your eyes drifted towards the edge of the building; a single thought coming to mind. At least I'll get to go on my own terms.

"You see, what you heroes don't understand is that there is always another option."

You walked over to the edge of the building, and stepped up onto the ledge.
