comment |
Are You Afraid of the Dark? is a Worm fanfic by ack1308, who is also author of Another Way, Recoil, I'm HALPING, Hope Comes to Brockton Bay, Security! (Worm), and Wyvern.In the 90s and early 2000s, Brockton Bay was stalked by two unpowered assassins, Danny & Anne-Rose, Killers for hire, or "D.A.R.K." for short. Anyone who the Marquis wanted dead, they would kill. Anyone who went after them would die. And they took the credit for Jack Slash being sent to the Birdcage in a wheelchair. And then, a few years ago, they disappeared.In January 2011, with his daughter in the hospital, Danny Hebert buys a puppy. Then some Empire thugs who pick a seemingly unassuming target hear a catchphrase that wasn't heard in years — "Are you afraid of the Dark?".The fic is ongoing but updates rarely.Can be also found on FanFiction.Net (here), Sufficient Velocity.com (here), and Questionable Questing (here). |

Make Sure He's Dead: When Danny sees one of a pile of bodies twitch, he instinctively fires into the pile again, three times. There's no more movement after that. |

comment |
Papa Wolf: After getting Chewie back, Danny turns his sights to Winslow, destroying the school and learning who was behind the bullying campaign against his daughter. Needless to say, Shadow Stalker was fucked the moment the Dark learned about her. After learning that Sophia turned Emma against Taylor and tormented her for over a year, Alan explodes into rage and willingly goes along with Danny's plan to kill her. He even pulls the trigger himself. |

Steel Eardrums: Zigzagged. Cricket's Super-Hearing makes point blank gunshots extremely painful even when they miss but no one seems bothered by firing a gun in confined spaces. |

Cricket has highly sensitive ears, so when Danny's fighting her, he makes sure to fire his pistol right next to them, where it would be painful even to someone with normal hearing. |

The Dreaded: While newer capes don't recognize the name, many older ones are rightfully afraid of the Dark. When Kaiser learns Dark is tearing through his Empire because they took his dog, he not only tells everyone to not go after him, but to shut down their dog fighting ring for good measure. |

False Flag Operation |
| | Are You Afraid of the Dark? (Worm) (Fanfic) / int_2dddd99d |
comment |
False Flag Operation: Lung is absolutely convinced the Dark is this, assuming the PRT are doing the same things the Yangban did, and refuses to consider otherwise. Coil has a fake Dark attack a bank truck in broad daylight, prompting Kaiser and Assault to immediately cover their own asses. The Dark accidentally sets one up by killing Sophia. Black Ward known for patrolling in Empire territory turns up tortured and dead, so the PRT blames the white supremacists. Plus, the gun was one of the ones Danny had recently taken from an Empire member, so forensics pointed to them. |

comment |
Never Bring a Gun to a Knife Fight: A true expert like Danny knows that one of the counters to a gun is to get up close with a knife, close enough to knock the gun barrel aside and stab the gunman many times. (The other option, if you're far enough away, is to get behind solid cover.) The first two men who invade his home die messily this way. |

Boring, but Practical: When the Undersiders ask for the favor Danny owes them to be paid by him ensuring the Empire 88 is taken down, he simply calls Assault and tells him the identities of their capes. Quick, effective, and requires no effort or risk on his part. |

Death by Adaptation: Jack Slash had his knees shot out and was shipped to the Birdcage as a cripple. He didn't survive that long afterward once inside. Cricket was easily dispatched by the Dark. Hookwolf was crushed by an electromagnet. Sophia, who survived all the way to Ward, is killed off by Alan, who is ragingly pissed at her for corrupting his daughter. |

Badass Normal: Danny, otherwise known to the cape scene as Dark, is not a parahuman. He has no superpowers, no special abilities, nothing except experience and training in gun handling and stealth and general assassination skills. Despite lacking superpowers, he can kill capes like Cricket and Jack Slash. This is what sets up his status as The Dreaded. |

Implacable Man: The Dark. It doesn't matter what you throw at him, he will not stop until his target is dead and god help you if you come between him and his quarry.

Mugging the Monster |
| | Are You Afraid of the Dark? (Worm) (Fanfic) / int_7276d0de |
comment |
Mugging the Monster: Two Empire thugs decide to rob what turns out to be a retired professional assassin. It doesn't end well for them, their buddies, Hookwolf's dogfighting ring, Cricket, or Hookwolf himself. Danny deliberately goes out looking to attract muggers, and leaves a trail of injured and unconscious bodies behind him. All to attract Shadow Stalker's attention so he can take her down. |

Entertainingly Wrong: After Tattletale sets up Coil to impersonate the Dark (in hopes that the Dark will kill him in retaliation), Danny and Taylor show up on the Undersiders' doorstep — and Tattletale quite naturally assumes that he's found out what she did and taken offence, leaving her terrified into near-speechlessness. Alec has never before seen her so scared, and is impressed. Taylor is a little confused by her reaction; they actually have no idea what Tattletale did, they were just sent to her as a possible source of information about Coil. |

Logical Weakness: Cricket has highly sensitive ears, so when Danny's fighting her, he makes sure to fire his pistol right next to them, where it would be painful even to someone with normal hearing. Zigzagged with Hookwolf who has a metal body. The Dark crushes him with an industrial electromagnet. While Hookwolf rightfully pointed out that he could just withdraw the metal back into his body, the Dark points out he can't do the same with his metal mask. |

Not Me This Time: Empire 88 was not responsible for killing Shadow Stalker. The Dark was. Kaiser's attempt at de-escalation is to find whoever did it and hand them over to the PRT. The Dark wasn't responsible for an armoured car robbery attributed to him. Assault/Madcap knows him well enough to know that that isn't at all his style and he doesn't need to make money that way. |

Oh, Crap!: Boy oh boy, where do we even begin? The first Empire goon when his target turns out to be dangerous. Two more Empire goons when their intended target whispers "Are you afraid of the Dark?" Or rather, one of them recognises the phrase, and descends into panicked swearing without pulling a weapon, which is why Danny lets him live. Every Empire Thug in the dogfighting Arena when the Dark shows up. Danny when Hookwolf shows up. Hookwolf when he sees Cricket dead. Hookwolf when the Dark uses an industrial magnet on him. Kaiser when he finds out the Dark killed two Empire Capes. Assault when the Dark becomes active again. Director Piggot when she hears Armsmaster wants a go at the Dark. Shadow Stalker when she gets caught by the Dark. Sophia when she realizes the girl she's been bullying was the daughter of the most feared professional assassin in the city. Sophia when she realizes she's about to be executed, via a bullet to the head at point-blank range in a soundproofed basement, without anyone willing to rescue her. Assault when he finds out the Dark has a personal vendetta against Shadow Stalker. Kaiser and Assault when Coil has a fake Dark rob a bank truck. The Undersiders when the Dark stops by to ask some questions. Kaiser when he finds out the Empire is blamed for Shadow Stalker's demise. The Empire 88 flunkies in two different bars when Danny comes looking for Fleur's killer. Larry Peterson, the man who murdered Fleur back in the day when he realises the Dark has come for him and that his 'friends' want nothing to do with him now. Frankoff, the Dark impersonator when he meets the real Dark. |

Selective Obliviousness: Coil mentally complains about never having the easy comradery and friendship his mercenaries do immediately after giving an Implied Death Threat to one of said mercenaries on the off chance he uses his Jack the Ripoff routine for his own ends rather than Coil's. It never occurs to him that since he regularly threatens his underlings and has almost zero positive interactions with them, they won't get attached and only see him as a steady paycheck. |

Make an Example of Them: J-dog is left with four men to help him turn Danny into a message not to mess with the Empire. (They get cleaned up by "Kwiksmart Pizza Delivery".) Danny's career notes mention that on the few occasions he took a rescue mission, which invariably involved a large body count, he always made a point of taking out the person who ordered the kidnapping. On the other hand, he doesn't believe in killing just to send a message. If he kills someone, it's because that person needed to die. |

Imperiled in Pregnancy: Defied. Kayden is still heavily pregnant with Aster during the events of the fic, and despite Max's insistence for her to be a Pregnant Badass in the Empire's time of need she runs for it to protect her baby. |

Professional Killer |
| | Are You Afraid of the Dark? (Worm) (Fanfic) / int_c601fc37 |
comment |
Professional Killer: D.A.R.K. would receive jobs by email, and send proof of death and payment details back. When Taylor asks her dad about whether his targets deserved to die, he responds that they generally did, but that wasn't his reason for going after them, because if he tried to kill everyone who did terrible things, the city would be filled with bodies. He is, however, adamant about being paid (except in cases where It's Personal). |

Shout-Out: Subverted: While the Heberts name their dog Chewie, Taylor explains to Danny that it's because the pup is chewing on her sleeve. Defied: Daisy the dog in John Wick is killed by the bad guys. Chewie lives. Assault jokes to the Dark that a twain is something that goes on a twack. The Dark explains his motivations to Sophia as "special circumstances". The Dark lets the guard outside a bar walk away after this strangely familiar scene. |

Roaring Rampage of Revenge: The Dark leaves dozens of bodies behind him as he tracks down Taylor's dog and gets him back. Because Taylor is in a difficult place and she needs that dog. |

Character Catchphrase: Whenever the Dark announced himself, he would always say, "Are you afraid of the Dark?" While most new capes don't recognize the meaning, those like Kaiser and Assault know of it. |

comment |
Implausible Deniability: After the man who killed Fleur is found killed in the same manner as Shadow Stalker, the PRT come up with a couple theories, including that the man went mad and the way he was killed is just coincidence, before settling on a preferred one. Victor killed them both, the former in order to frame New Wave for ordering a hit and the latter because she's black. There's an unspoken agreement that they know their theory is bullshit, but it's "the one they prefer". |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Once the PRT decides to stop playing nice with the Empire, Purity decides the best thing to do to protect herself and her unborn child is to retire from caping entirely. When Danny spares the guard outside the second bar, he decides to go home and not come back. |

Casual Danger Dialogue: Danny muses aloud about whether Taylor might like a puppy or a kitten to help her feel better, while twisting a mugger's wrist. Sadly, he isn't able to get any advice from the guy except screamed profanity. Then he takes a look inside the mugger's gun (which he keeps) and gently chides him for not taking better care of it. |

O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Kaiser and Assault note that, prior to the killings of Cricket and Hookwolf, the Dark never killed Capes. It turns out the motivation was a personal vendetta and the two Capes were caught in the crossfire. |

Sensory Overload: While fighting Cricket, Danny repeatedly fires his pistol in her general direction even when he can't quite aim closely enough to hit her. Her Super-Hearing means she's very strongly affected by the firing noise, wincing and recoiling as if she's been punched. (In the end, he actually mortally wounds her with a knife, and only uses the gun to finish her off.) |
