Just the janitor | Yandere heroes x male reader

01: Application

A few months have passed since the revolution of the new hero's arrival having named herself "Stardust". Quickly picking up infamy for her many acts throughout the city such as stopping building collapses, fighting off bad guys, saving lives, or even simple things such as getting a cat out of a tree.

The internet has exploded about her looks, and seemingly infinite strength. The hero's guild welcomed her with open arms, but it seems she refused them. Wanting to keep her identity secret.

But I know the truth, or atleast a very big hunch about it. Remembering that day so vividly, watching our SBO president Sarah vanish and the arrival of Stardust. Seems odd you don't see both of them at the same time right?

Oh well, even if I decided to speak up no one would believe me. Some random jobless dude online. Speaking of which, I hear a knock at my door.

"Come in!" I state glancing from my phone towards the door. Peering through the gap is my dear mother. She pushes herself fully inside my room, looking at me.

"Okay, we need to talk. You've had your little break from school, but me and your dad think it's time for you to either go to college or get a job." She states towards me. I sigh, figured my paradise would end quickly as it came.

"Alright alright, I'll look for jobs. I just suffered twelve years of school, I'd rather not go back immediately." I reply and she nods at me getting a small smile on her face.

"I understand that honey, anyways I'm going to cook for dinner so why not get started with the search?" She leaves my room closing the door behind her. I sigh and look back at my phone.

Opening up Safari I type in the search bar "Indeed.com" and put in my location. I doomscroll for a bit, seeing jobs I'm either way too under qualified for or are a slave labor job.

Until something catches my eye, it's a janitorial position that pays about 15-18$ an hour? Entry level too, so I'm confused how something that level pays so well. Until I see the company it's apart of: 'Justice Hero Inc."

I shrug to myself, it's a high paying job so I can save up for school pretty quickly. I click apply and start going through the process filling out my information. After a few minutes, I finish and submit my application.

I heard from Ajax that the job climate is a bit harsh at the moment, but maybe I just got lucky with this position and can make somewhat bank. I hear my mom calling my name from downstairs so I get up and head to eat dinner.

After eating a delicious meal of beaf stroganoff with a side of garlic bread, I head back to my room. I check my emails and notice I've already gotten a reply back from Justice Inc. Opening it up I brace myself for the news.

"Congratulations (Y/N), we have received your application and deem you as a great asset to our company! Please feel free to reply to this email with a date that works best for your interview. We look forward to working with you."

It reads, I'm suspicious by how quickly I got accepted. I heard from online that if this happens there's some kind of catch or misleading pay info. But it's the hero guild, so maybe they're just desperate?

I reply back saying the next day works at 3pm. Guess it's better for me to find out whether it's a good job or if I need to really slave away for a place like McDonald's.

I open Instagram and reply to a few memes from my friends, and then start doomscrolling rotting my brain through its reels system.

I notice a few fan edits of Stardust, they're a bit shit to be honest. Mostly fan girls wanting her beauty routine or appreciating her power. I read the comments and see a few horny dudes as well.

I can't really blame them, but I mean she's a person at the end of the day. Not like as if I have ever sexualized her or anything...

I leave the reel and open the search bar, already noticing Sarah and Stardust's Instagram handles staring at me from within.

I sigh at myself, noting if this job works out I should look into a bit of therapy as well. If I want to not die alone I need to be worthy and not as fucked up for that to happen.
