[ WP ] You 're a normal person in a world full of superheroes , and unfortunately , you live right next to a super villain .

`` Haha! Another straight flush!'' 
 
 As the man's hands swept the table, his opponent, a bulky figure under a pitch-black hood gently caressed the handle of his lethal pocket railgun. 
 
 `` Oh come on, John. We both know i can end it in this same instant...'' 
 
 `` Ohoho, are you sure? Check around. See that teapot? Who knows if it might be lady Morphy in disguise, ready to arrest you if you do try to kill me?'' 
 
 The robed man quickly drew the pistol and shot at the utensil, which vaporised in a cloud of smoke. He let out a sigh as John started laughing. 
 `` I wonder, why do you live here?. I mean... I'm an evil scientist which has world domination plans, and every nation would tremble before my presence. Have n't you considered moving to a safer place while i fight these so called `` superheros''?'' 
 
 `` I have n't, nor i will ever. I'm the only normal person in the vicinity which means every single hero has an eye on me, because of their moral code. You know, as they say, - Noblesse Oblige -. That's why this is the safest place around.'' 
 
 John gathered the cards and started shuffling them, casually looking at his opponent. `` What about you? Why do you live here, surrounded by heroes? Why do n't you invent a time machine of some sort and leave?'' 
 
 `` Because... that's...'' 
 
 The man stopped. John could see he was very clearly flustered, behind his robed appearance. As John continued to deliver the cards, the man took out his cloak, uncovering a bald, classical `` evil guy'' appearance, with clear spots on his eyes, his cheeks colored in a tender red. 
 
 `` Because i like you. Because you're the only person that does n't consider me a criminal and wants to arrest me. 
 
 
 `` Because i want the world only for you and me.'' 
 
 John smiled. It was n't the first time the man had confessed these kind of feelings for him. A silence followed shortly after. 
 
 ``.... Do n't laugh.'' 
 
 PS: Sorry for any mistakes. I'm not english native, plus it's my first try at a WP ( Seeing the sheer quality of posts around make me kinda... scared of giving it a try )
