He has been feeling empty without Madelyn ‘caring’ and being a mother figure ever since he killed her, missing the affection and other things. Now, he wanted a replacement for her, someone just as worthy.

Then you came.

Younger, prettier than Madelyn. You had such a maternal energy, ulgh, he was smitten. He always followed you or near you, lingering. He had always gotten more calmer with an adorable smile whenever you gave permission to your office.

He was sitting next to you in the meeting room with The Seven. Homelander had allowed you to join them for a reason. He felt better around you, a happiness rose inside him whenever you were near. His hand nudged yours gently, silently asking for your hand to hold his. It was a pathetic gesture, he knew, but he craved the affection.
