Part two of the M&M/reader HCs to keep you guys satisfied while you wait for the fic! These are all set in the post-apocalypse timeline. Anything about their relationship not explored in either this or pt. 1 will be explored in the one shot series coming up. All aspects of both pt. 1 and pt. 2 will also be expanded on in the series.
I’m so excited that this ship took off the way it did, and that so many of you are so invested in the story. It seriously warms my heart. I, obviously, love them very much, and I’m so glad that so many of you do too.
(me, gifing this scene in complete denial: awww look he’s reaching out for her!!! he wants her attention!!! he loves her!!! they’re so happy!!!)
Gen.:
Reader and Madison stay with Michael as often as they can in
the period of time leading up to the apocalypse
He offered (more like begged and pleaded) for them to be
taken to a bunker so he knew they’d be safe when the bombs fell, but they’d
elected to stay with Cordelia so they wouldn’t arouse any kind of suspicion
Hawthorne is chosen as the location for Outpost Three
because of its significance to Michael; it was there that he first saw Madison
and the reader together
Madison and the reader are able to convince Myrtle that Outpost
Three is where she and Cordelia need to place Mallory and Coco; they know that
Mallory’s magic will be what awakens them and that Cordelia will seek her out
there; they want their reunion with Michael and their final showdown with the
Coven to occur in a place that has meaning for them
The three of them decide Outpost Three will be the last of
the Outposts that Michael visits; it isn’t that they aren’t eager to reunite
with him, it’s just that they want all other distractions cleared away before
he encounters the Coven
Outpost Three will be where they choose to start their new
life together
In the days leading up to the last time they will see each
other, Michael becomes doubtful that what he is asking Madison and the reader
to do is in their best interest; he stresses that if they are having any second
thoughts, if they wish to remain loyal to their coven, to simply let him know
and he’ll allow them to go
They refuse, of course
Madison and the reader make Michael aware ahead of time
exactly who Mallory and Coco really are; this is what leads to the concoction
of the poison apples plan (Madison and the reader hadn’t counted on Cordelia
reviving them when they’d arrived at the outpost; as angry as they are at
Cordelia, they had initially wanted their sisters to have a more peaceful
death, at least until Mallory and Coco had stood against Michael)
After their reunion at the Outpost and the slaughter of the
Coven, M&M/reader easily adjust to their new lives
With the witches dead, the reader insists that the rest of
the people in the Outpost who had been murdered by the poison apples be revived
(Nothing has ever amused Madison more than the disappointed
look on Gallant’s face when he realizes that Michael is indeed spoken for)
Reader often follows Michael out into the wasteland when he
goes on supply runs or meets with other members of the cooperative; she uses
her powers to heal as much of the earth (and the survivors they encounter) as
she can
Michael has done his duty and ended the world for his father,
now he wants to focus on building a new one; he is happy to watch the reader
mend and fix what she’s able to in order to let that new world flourish
With Cordelia and Mallory both dead, both the reader’s and Madison’s
powers expand exponentially; they teasingly call each other the supreme, though
neither one of them would ever step up to accept that title; they are happy to
let the foundations of their old coven die in the past
The survivors of the outpost eventually genuinely take to
M&M/reader, and are especially grateful to reader for insisting on having
them brought back to life
Relationship:
The period of time where they are separated after the bombs fall
is agony for Michael; he knows that Madison and the reader will be safe, that
Cordelia wouldn’t let any harm to come to them, but being without them for so
long weighs on his more than he thought it would
Michael is able to feel it when Mallory’s magic wakes up
Madison and the reader
Both Madison and the reader are absolutely FLOORED when the
arrive at the Outpost with Cordelia to find that Michael’s grown his hair out; he
teases Madison mercilessly about her reaction, given that she was the one who had
spent so long talking him into it
A few days after their reunion, reader decides to do a blood
ritual that will bind their magic together; Madison teases her about not just
proposing like normal people would, but she’s secretly touched that she would
get to share something so personal with the two people she loves the most
(thank you for the idea @wroteclassicaly!)
The ritual allows them to be much more in tune with each
other’s magic, as well as the magic of any outsider; they are able to sense it
(they ultimately sense weak power inside Emily, and Madison and reader begin training
her; the Coven lives on through them, but is new and fresh and not bound by the
mistakes of its old Supremes)
Roughly six months after the arrival of Madison and reader
at the outpost, Michael senses something
through their joined magic; he announces that the reader is pregnant that night
over dinner, shocking both of the girls
Madison had long ago taken preventative measures to avoid ever
becoming pregnant herself, so they were always aware that any children they
ever went on to have would be the reader’s
None of them had ever expected it to happen so soon though
When their daughter is born, she immediately melts all three
of her parents’ hearts
Reader is the designated boo-boo fixer; she is constantly
healing the little bumps and scrapes her little girl gets from running through
the Outpost; she also loves to use her talent for concilium to make Michael and
Madison do the most ridiculous things to get her daughter to laugh
Michael always has her on his lap while he’s at work in his
office; recalling his own memories of his time at Hawthorne, he will often
absentmindedly swirl snowflakes around the room for her amusement
Madison ends up being the one she goes to to learn more
about magic; she will sit with her daughter for hours to work on growing her
powers, all while the reader looks on fondly
Becoming parents only solidifies the bond and the love
between the three of them; they would kill, or die, for the protection of each
other and their daughter
Romance:
Michael may have a harder outer persona at the Outpost, but
he is entirely soft around Madison
and the reader; living without them for two years had been almost too much for
him to bear
Prior to their separation and the apocalypse, reader had
offered to use her power of mind control to alter his memories so he would
forget about her and Madison until after the three of them were reunited; he
had flat out refused
The day after their reunion, he holds them both for hours,
just reveling in being back in their presence; Madison tries to tease him about
this but she can’t even get the words out because she knew she wouldn’t be handling
it nearly as well as he was if she was in his position
Unable to watch him hurt after all that they know has
happened to him, Madison and the reader are able to merge their magic to leave
his memories intact, but erase the pain associated with them
Madison and the reader also finally craft him a ring that
matches the ones they wear; they use dust from the earth outside the Outpost to
forge the materials for it
The blood ritual that bound their magic together also has a
way of making them more in tune with each other’s emotions
When the reader is pregnant, she and Michael go out of their
way to make sure Madison feels included every step of the way; they can feel
through their bond how much that matters to her, how worried she was that she
may become irrelevant to them over time
During this time, the reader pulls her aside to remind her
that their decision to include Michael in their relationship had changed
everything as well, but for the better; she promises Madison that is what their
child will do too; Madison will never be excluded from their family
As a sign of their love for her, Michael and the reader
allow Madison to name their daughter when she’s born
NSFW:
It takes only minutes after they have done away with the
coven for Madison to attack Michael,
pulling at his hair and knocking him down onto the stairs; reader follows behind
her, but not without taking a moment to just laugh at her
The changes to Michael’s appearance and demeanor have both
Madison and the reader weak in the knees for days after they’ve reunited
The sex over the course of those first few days is hot; it’s hard and rough and filthy and typically
quick, though it’s split into several sessions a day; they have enough lost
time to make up for without wasting anymore with slow, lazy lovemaking
Michael becomes more dominating than he ever was before; the
girls are both incredibly weak for it
Madison had always been the biggest dirty talker out of the
three of them; that honor belongs to Michael now
Madison’s new favorite power move to wield over Michael is
to tug on his hair; she tugs on it to get him to go down on her, encourages the
reader to tangle her fingers into it while she rides him
After the blood ritual, Micheal discovers he can use their
bonded magic to get Madison and the reader off without ever even touching them;
he doesn’t even have to be in he same room as they are
The revived Outpost survivors are frequently walking in on
things they don’t want to see, or overhearing things they don’t want to hear;
it eventually gets so bad that they have to sit M&M/reader down and remind
them that they are not, in fact, the last three people on Earth
Reader has taken to sitting around their room in nothing but
one of Michael’s dinner jackets, which drives him wild; Madison loves to use
his cravats to tie up the reader during bondage (or to be tied up with them
herself)
Desk sex in the Outpost’s office is their new favorite thing
Reader and Madison both also develop an affinity for blowing
Michael while he sits in one of the office’s leather armchairs
They had, of course, always known Michael was the
antichrist, but the first time they see him do one of his blood rituals, Madison
and the reader are totally and completely gone;
reader straddles his hips to ride him right there, trailing her tongue up each
of his arms to heal the cuts
