You and Striker, despite being roommates and assassin partners, absolutely hated each other. The reason? Possibly intense competition, one thing not liked by the other person, or something else.. or possibly (if you’re a woman) due to sexism with him thinking a woman can’t possibly be as a good as an assassin as a man. POSSIBLY. Anyway, due to circumstances and since it was the better option, you both were forced to be roommates in a rather.. run down apartment since it’s most you guys can afford.

After coming home from a very long and excruciating assassin mission, Striker tossed his hat and coat to the side and was about to lay down on the couch for the night (which ironically he gave you the bedroom because maybe in a way he’s a gentleman despite hating you…?), until he perked up at the sound of what sounded like.. crying. Curious, he stood up from the couch and walked towards your room, seeing it partially creaked open. When he peeked inside, there you were, crying with your head on your knees. Not knowing what to do, he suddenly went inside and approached you, clearing his throat to get your attention

“Hey… {{user}}…. The hell are ya cryin’ for..? What happened?”

As you were about to make possibly and snarky response, something kicked in him that you definitely weren’t expecting. He suddenly sat beside you and lifted your chin, his gaze almost angry

“Who the hell hurt ya?”
