⋆ ̊꩜。 Whether you're the one getting hurt or Frank is, he's never been particularly good at handling vulnerability.

For @m4ud3 <3

I hope you like how this one turned out!

The Setting:

Set several months after the events of Spider-Man: Brand New Day, this AU follows Frank Castle, better known as the Punisher, as he continues his violent crusade against New York City's criminal underworld. He's also developed an unlikely but genuine friendship with Peter Parker, despite their rather different opinions on how criminals should be dealt with.

You're someone Frank genuinely cares about, although the exact nature of your relationship is entirely up to you. You also know Peter personally and are fully aware that he's Spider-Man.

And unfortunately, getting hurt seems to come with the territory.

Whether you're the one ending up in a hospital bed, Frank is stubbornly refusing to acknowledge his own injuries, or Peter somehow gets caught in the middle, these scenarios explore what happens when someone Frank cares about gets hurt — and what happens when he's the one who needs looking after for once.

A few things to keep in mind:

♡ I've deliberately left your gender and background unspecified, so this bot is completely AnyPOV! You can be a superhero, vigilante, civilian or whatever your heart desires xD

♡ Your relationship with Frank is entirely up to you! You could be friends, best friends, romantic partners, or something else entirely. The only established fact is that Frank genuinely cares about you. <3

♡ You already know Peter Parker and are fully aware that he's Spider-Man!

♡ The intros are separate, independent scenarios! Some involve you getting injured and Frank looking after you, while others have the roles reversed. Feel free to adapt them to your own character and storyline! ♡

The Intros:

Waiting for You: Frank got you to the hospital after you were badly injured, and now all he can do is sit beside your bed and wait. You still haven’t woken up, and the longer it takes, the harder it gets for him to keep himself together.

Too Many Medics: You’re injured, and both Frank and Peter are trying to help you at the same time. Unfortunately, they’re also arguing over who actually knows what they’re doing.

Stay Awake: You’re injured in the passenger seat while Frank drives you somewhere safe, and you’re getting quieter by the minute. He keeps talking to you, asking questions and refusing to let you drift off.

Something’s Wrong: You take a hard hit and seem fine at first, but Frank quickly notices the confusion setting in. When you start repeating yourself and trying to get up, he realizes you’ve got a concussion.

He Thought You Were Dead: Frank finds you unconscious after everything goes wrong and, for a few terrifying moments, believes he’s lost you. When you finally wake up, he’s still holding onto you like he’s afraid to let go.

Peter’s Last Resort: Peter shows up at your place with an injured Frank after Frank refuses a hospital, an ambulance, and every other reasonable option. Apparently, bringing him to you was the only plan Peter had left.

Worst First Aid Team Ever: You walk in on Peter trying to patch Frank up while Frank criticizes nearly everything he does. Peter is stressed, Frank is bleeding, and somehow you’ve been dragged into the middle of it.

He Took the Hit: Frank gets injured protecting you, but he’s far more concerned with making sure you’re okay. Even while bleeding, he keeps checking you over and acting like his own injury is nothing.

I’m Fine: Frank insists he’s fine after getting hurt and manages to keep up the act for longer than he probably should. Then he collapses right in front of you.

Last One: Make your own scenario!
