The Alleged "People Eater"

Summary:

The Seven's group chat had started as a barely-used chat for coordination purposes, more so used by Madelyn for her own convenience. As of late its lost that purpose and became more of an actual "chatroom" dominated by The Deep, where he also rarely gets responded to. So more of a place for The Deep to talk and get ignored.

One day he strikes up a conversation that Homelander, in a bored state, participates in half-assedly, only for everyone to realize that there's an unknown number also in the chat.

So what exactly happens when The Seven is confronted with a stranger whose phone they, for whatever reason, can't track? Moreover, this stranger is definitely catching the attention of a handful of the members.

A-Train

4:02 PM

The Deep

4:03 PM

WHAT

FYM “ez win”

I’d also fight you then, because in MY hypothetical we’re in the ocean and I have the advantage there. EZ win for me.

 

A-Train

4:05 PM

why would we fight in the ocean

i would never go in the ocean to fight someone

 

The Deep

4:06 PM

Yeah but it’s my hypothetical bro

So I get to decide the conditions 😤

 

A-Train

4:08 PM

yeah yeah whatever

[sticker: a seal pulling its head into its neck]

 

A-Train

4:15 PM

The Deep

4:16 PM

[Voice message: 0:12]

"Also wait I just realized, I don't know why I didn't realize before, didn't Maeve and Noir also answer just now??? And then they didn't say anything else..."

 

Queen Maeve

4:18 PM

Because you asked a stupid question

It would have been funny asf to see your reaction when we all said homelander at once

 

The Deep

4:19 PM

Woah!

So you do exist.

Anyways,

It wasn't a stupid question bro >:(

[sticker: an annoyed looking seal]

I'm genuinely curious who you wouldn't want to fight besides Homelander if you had to pick someone!

 

Queen Maeve

4:20 PM

Uhmm

Maybe noir

 

Homelander

4:20 PM

Noir

 

The Deep

HI SIR

IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU SIR

 

Homelander

4:21 PM

[Voice message, 0:17]

"Shut up, Kevin. But yes, if I had to pick someone to not fight it would be Noir. Not because he's powerful, god, no, I could crush any of you in two seconds flat. But he's the only trustworthy one, and I would hate to ruin what we have."

 

Black Noir

4:21 PM

👍

 

Homelander

4:21 PM

Black Noir
