Title: Downfall of the Invincible
Pairing: Willie Loomis/Maggie Evans
Fandom: Dark Shadows
Theme: #16 Invincible; unrivaled
There was once a time when Willie Loomis felt absolutely invincible and completely unrivaled by anyone else in the world, and that was when he worked side by side with Jason McGuire. Together the dastardly duo would con and swindle numerous unfortunate souls out of their hard-earned paychecks, each time growing more and more daring with their heists.
When they arrived in Collinsport, however, things immediately began to change. The ever-beautiful Maggie Evans caught Willie's eye with her simple charm and caustic sarcasm, yet her rejection of him time and time again felt far worse than getting thrown in the slammer any day.
Willie couldn't quite explain what was going on within his weary shell of a body, but with each passing moment he felt himself growing more and more unsure of his abilities in both conning and women. He knew deep-down that it was all because of Maggie, but he would never own up to the fact that a woman had single-handedly defeated his pride.
