The Bad Joke Of Zaun: Jinx X Joker Reader

Alternate Ending: The Monster I Always Was (Old)

In the abandoned cannery factory, Caitlyn is holding the chaotic duo of Zaun at gunpoint with Jinx's minigun

Caitlyn: "Vi, they're too far gone"

Jinx then puts the gun back down on the table and puts her hands up with Y/N. They put on a docile demeanor until giggling could be heard from both of them. And not a second offbeat, Jinx uses her new incredible speed to close the gap between her and Caitlyn

Vi: "Look out!"

Jinx manages to snatch her minigun away, and using the weapon, she proceeds to knock the startled enforcer off her feet with a swift strike to the jaw

Y/N: "HAHAHAHAHA!!!!"

Y/N hunches over as he laughs his heart out, loving every bit of this

Silco: "You see, now finish it"

Jinx looks back and forth with adrenaline and shimmer rushing through her veins

Vi: "Damn it! Powder, Y/N, wake up!"

Y/N ceases his laughter and stands up straight, visibly annoyed by Vi's plea

Vi: "Remember who you two are! I know you both remember! Picture Mylo!"

After hearing her sister bring up the name of her dead stepbrother, Jinx seems to be in a trance, seemingly having a battle inside her own head

Y/N gets irritated by the mention of his deceased sibling, and his anger seems to rise even more when he takes a glance at the state of Jinx. He walks up to Vi and strikes her in the face

Y/N: "Shut up"

However, this doesn't faze his older sister

Vi: "Picture Claggor!"

Jinx: "Stop"

She pleas, begging for the torture to end

This infuriates Y/N more, as he begins to repeatedly strike Vi in the face, not letting up for a single moment

Y/N: "Shut up!"

Yet, Vi continues her efforts

VI: "Vander!"

Livid as well, Silco attempts to break free of his restraints, but to no avail

Silco: "Shut up! Don't listen to her!"

Vi: "Our dads!"

Jinx begins to hold her head in anguish, grunting at the pain she's experiencing

This however takes Y/N to his limit, and the memories of his father begin to flood his mind. Every beating, every word from his disgusting mouth, all of it coming back

"Tell Vander to handle this"

"Waste of life!"

"Come on boy! Stop crying, you can take a few more hits"

"Just what I thought, what a disappointment"

Y/N's strikes begin to have more power behind them, giving Vi a cut below her eye, causing one of her teeth to fall out, and blood beginning to spew out of her mouth and nose, staining the table

Silco grunts, still trying to break out of his bindings

Vi: "Our moms!"

Jinx begins to stumble around, disoriented by the torture

Y/N stops his onslaught, frozen at the mention of his mother. Her soothing voice, the bedtime stories she told him, the warm hugs she gave. She was the first person who believed in him and told him he could be something
