Fluff Alphabet: Takeru/Aguni Edition
🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸
A = Attractive what do they find attractive about the other?
Takeru: only reason he let Aguni wear regular clothes and not swimwear is because he saw ARM in that tank top and was like "oh damn okay 😳." So, y'know, that. (And he'll never admit it but he kinda likes how Aguni is a little bit taller than he is....) Also likes that Aguni has a really dry, deadpan sense of humor—he ways finds a way to make Takeru laugh, even when he's not really trying.
Aguni: I think the physical aspect of things wasn't really a make-or-break for him at first—like, yeah, Takeru's a good-looking guy, but that's secondary. He liked how Takeru is such a live-wire, very loud and colorful and seemingly fearless, no matter what kind of trouble they got into. (But also...he likes the hair. That's a thing for him.)
B = Baby do they want a family? why/why not?
Takeru: If they end up with one somehow, then, sure. But, like. He's not going out of his was to make it a thing. (But also, he has his cat, Ziggy, who he calls his baby, so...)
Aguni: Would secretly love to be a dad but is too worried he might mess the kid up or something. Is more than happy to be 'unofficial parent' to the neighborhood kids, though. Handing out ice pops to the kids that show up at the shop, keeping an eye out and telling them to get home before dark, maybe even showing one or two of them how to throw a better curveball...you know. Real Hallmark channel shit. (And yes, for those who were wondering: Ziggy the cat loves him and often curls up on his lap while he watches TV)
C = Cuddle how do they cuddle?
They don't really "cuddle" outside of bed. Just kinda sit next to each other, shoulder to shoulder, no big deal. But in bed, Aguni lies on his back with his arm sorta outstretched while Takeru...well, my man is worm on a string but OFF the string, he just flops all sorts of ways and a lot of them don't look comfortable but he falls asleep in minutes so whatever.
D = Dates what are dates with them like?
I don't think they do "dates"—they've got a long-term thing going on, so they often end up on the couch eating takeout and watching movies. I think they'd go to the movie theater sometimes (and talk shit for the entire film lol) and every once in a while grab dinner somewhere nice...but, usually because they have some cool limited-time-only dessert item that Takeru insists they try. (And Aguni pretends to be upset about having to get dressed up and go out, but is actually rather pleased to have a little romance...and get something to satisfy his sweet tooth.)
E = Everything you are my ____ (e.g my life, my world…)
Aguni: Emergency Medical Contact
Takeru: Co-Signer On The Apartment Lease
F = Feelings when did they know they were falling in love?
Takeru: About a week after Aguni (drunkenly) confessed his crush. Literally spent a whole week like, "Wow, it's a shame I don't love him back. He's so kind and handsome and smart and funny...too bad, I guess..." until one night he sat up straight in bed and said "Hold up." He then immediately called Aguni and began demanding why Aguni didn't tell him he was in love with him this whole time.
Aguni: They had been friends since they were kids, so it's hard to say when his feelings went from "you're my best friend" to something different. But, once he figured it out, he swore never to mention it because that could complicate their friendship.
G = Gentle are they gentle? If so, how?
Takeru: Yes and no. He's got a bad case of "grabby hands" and often yanks Aguni to and fro to look at something or whatever. Just zero respect for the man's personal space. But otherwise...I imagine he's not particularly rough or gentle, just kind of normal. EXCEPT when it comes to the emotional stuff—like, the real heavy things. I think he's very gentle with that, not asking too many questions and just sort of taking care of him where he can.
Aguni: Generally gentle—physically, emotionally, whatever. But I do think that he's confrontational, like when there's an issue, he comes straight out and asks Takeru what's going on. Even corners him, sometimes. He seems like a "no bullshit" guy, and since Takeru is "Mr. 99% Bullshit" he's gotta deal with it as best he can.
H = Hand/Hold how do they like to hold hands?
The only time they "hold hands" is when Takeru is grabbing Aguni's wrist to drag him somewhere (or run away lol) and when Aguni is pulling Takeru's hand back to stop him from touching something...
I = Impression first impression/s
I headcanon that they met very young, like grade school age. After school, in the park, where Takeru was chilling in a tree and Aguni walked by and he was like "Hey, there's a spider up here, wanna see?" and Aguni is like "Not really, I don't like bugs..." Now, Takeru, being "weird bug kid extraordinaire" can't believe his strange little ears and hops down from the tree and starts explaining why bugs are so cool and that Aguni is wrong...and Aguni listens as this funky, tiny firecracker just talks his damn ear off. Aguni liked how excited Takeru got about things, and Takeru liked how Aguni actually listened to him. And they were fast friends after that!
J = Joker are they into pulling pranks?
Takeru fucks around all the time...and doesn't often find out, because Aguni tolerates all his antics. (To a certain point, but still.) Every once in a while, Aguni will tell some harmless little lie just to watch Takeru freak out—he told him once that Lady Gaga was leaving the music scene forever, and Takeru screamed so loud the neighbors filed a noise complaint.
K = Kisses how do they kiss?
I think they most often do quick pecks—at the breakfast table, when they get home from work. You know. Domestic stuff. But when it's not like that...I think 9/10 times it's Takeru initiating, and Aguni reciprocates by wrapping his arms around him in a big hug (because he likes it but also to keep that skinny little weirdo from wiggling so damn much, he's always moving, he can't just be still—)
L = Love who says I love you first?
Neither! I don't think they really say it at all! Why say something that doesn't need to be said? (At least, that's how they see it...)
M = Memory their favorite moment together
Aguni: It's not really a memory, but...just how they have breakfast together some mornings. Sipping coffee, discussing whatever's going on in the world, the general "togetherness" that comes with it is one of his favorite feelings.
Takeru: The time they spent a full 24 hours in a karaoke booth singing 80's hits and knocking back tequila shots and ordering way too much food.
N = Nickel do they spoil? do they buy the person they love everything?
Takeru: Absolutely buys stuff for Aguni all the time. Mostly random snacks, or little knick-knacks that catch his eye. And also clothes, but...Aguni doesn't always approve.
Aguni: Doesn't buy Takeru stuff BUT leaves vases of flowers he grew on the table for Takeru to find.
O = Orange what color reminds them of their other half
Anything bright and obnoxious reminds Aguni of Takeru—red in particular, which also happens to be Takeru's favorite. And Takeru thinks Aguni has calm and soothing blue-green vibes. Like the ocean, beautiful and serene, but also dark and capable of incredible destruction.
P = Petnames what pet names do they use?
Takeru: All of them. Darling, babe, sweetheart (but he calls everyone those lol). Aguni-specific ones are always over-the-top and ridiculous like "brightest star in all of the heavens..." and he always gets an eye-roll for his efforts.
Aguni: Absolutely does not use pet names. Just says "hey you" or something. Once called Takeru "babe" and Takeru had to stop washing dishes and sit down because he was laughing so hard.
Q = Quaint what is their favorite non-modern thing?
Takeru: I feel like he would collect a ton of vintage stuff—clothes, records, just random little bits and bobs he comes across. But his favorite is definitely his record player—it belonged to his dad, and he keeps it in a place of honor in the hat shop.
Aguni: A set of very old and well-cared-for gardening tools. Takeru got them for him for his birthday, and he legit treasures them.
R = Rainy Day what do they like to do on a rainy day?
Lay on the couch and do literally nothing. Takeru gets the left end, Aguni takes the right, and they binge trash TV shows all day. (And also they make box-mix brownies and eat them straight out of the pan. It's "their thing.")
S = Sad how do they cheer themselves/each other up
Takeru: Aside from all his self-destrictive behaviors (binge-drinking, dangerous situations, etc.) he just really needs a good laugh. And Aguni somehow always manages to make him laugh with an unexpected, deadpan comment. Also, he makes Takeru actually talk through his problems instead of ignoring them...
Aguni: if he's in a bad mood, you just need to let him work through it on his own. He hates being "talked down to" and feels that most attempts at cheering up are cheap, so most people don't attempt. Buf...Takeru is not "most people" and breaks out his most ridiculous jokes to try to get Aguni to crack a smile.
T = Talking what do they love to talk about?
Other people! You know Takeru is the "XOXO Gossip Girl" of the neighborhood, but Aguni...he's like a little old church lady and ADORES hearing all the latest drama.
U = Unencumbered What helps them relax?
Both of them have the same method of relaxation and it's...bubble baths! Aguni does a basic, skin soothing soak and just hangs out in the warm water with a book or maybe just his thoughts to keep him company. But Takeru? He's got some fancy bath soaps, and he takes in a glass of wine and lights a few candles and does a face mask and it's a whole EVENT.
V - Very thoughts about each other
Takeru: Thinks Aguni needs to loosen up and take more risks...but also just loves the guy to pieces.
Aguni: Kinda wishes Takeru would calm tf down sometimes...but also knows that it's just how the guy is and wouldn't dare change him.
W = Wedding when, how, where do they propose?
They're not really the marrying type! They just have a mutual understanding of commitment and that's that.
(But if they did have a wedding... I think it would be a relatively small affair with all their closest friends and family. Like a dinner party, but somewhere extra nice and with lots of good food and alcohol. Intimate and meaningful, with just enough "extra" to satisfy Takeru.)
X = Xylophone What’s their song?
"Total Eclipse of the Heart" because they hid out in a karaoke booth (different from the 24-hour event that Takeru cherishes so much) to es ape the Yakuza and Takeru sang it over and over to pass the time.
Y = You the ___ to my ___ (e.g the cookies to my milk, the macaroni to my cheese)
"Breaking" to my "Entering." The "Assault" to my "Battery." (They both hate this sort of thing and try to come up with the worst answers possible lol)
Z = Zebra if they wanted a pet, what pet would they get?
They already have the cat, Ziggy, who is their perfect little angel.

Unlucky Date
"Babe...I love you but this is torture." Peter pulls the sleeve of his sweater over his hand before holding his hand up to his nose.
He and Cassie were spending the day at the mall and it had been nice up until now. Tony and Stephen were incredibly generous when it came to his, Harley's, and Diana's allowances, so when Cassie spent a majority of hers, Peter handed over his debit card without a second thought. Scott couldn't give her a huge allowance, and Quill currently didn't have a job since he went to space too often, but the space pirate took on the job to protect Scott and Cassie and he did whatever he could to spoil them anyway. Peter didn't mind letting his girlfriend dip into his funds. She could probably buy all she wanted and barely make a dent into what he had.
She wasn't very materialistic, but today was one of those days that she wanted to splurge. Some new clothes, a couple of knick knacks, a little bit of makeup (that Peter tried to convince her she didn't need. He's seen her without it, but she said she only wore it for special occasions), and now she dragged him to a candle store. One or two candles didn't bother him, but a whole store of them had his sense of smell going into overdrive.
"Just wait at that bench then. It will only take me a couple of minutes." Cassie points to a nearby bench and he nods as she walks into the store.
The other reason Peter didn't just suck it up and go in with her was because he couldn't. If he went in there, there was a good chance he would have a sensory overload and he didn't want to make Cassie deal with that. She was true to her word though, and was out of the store within a couple of minutes and they were walking away from it much to his relief. When she handed him the bag of candles, he took them out one by one to smell them as they walked to their next destination, one of them burning his eyes.
"Keep that one downstairs." He says as he returns it to the bag and wipes his eyes.
Cassie giggles. "It's for Dad and Papa anyway. I'm the one that keeps our floor clean after all."
"You make it sound like they're kids."
"They're really not bad but Dad leaves paperwork, schematics, and blueprints on every freaking surface...and I think Quill has something against shirts. I find them all over the place. I actually have to go looking for laundry on the day I do laundry!" Cassie rolls her eyes and Peter smirks.
"I'm pretty sure it's your dad that has something against Quill having shirts."
"Ugh, please don't remind me."
After a couple more stores, the two decide on a lunch break, and Peter stays in line to order their food while Cassie finds them a table. A few minutes later found them sitting at the table and eating their first burger, and Cassie raising an eyebrow when Peter is already halfway through his first one when she had barely taken a second bite out of hers.
"Peter, I swear you're going to choke one of these days. Slow down tiger."
"Sorry. I'm starving." He says around a mouthful of food and Cassie wrinkles her nose.
"That's attractive."
Peter ignores her and takes a sip of his drink before crumpling the wrapper and tossing it on the tray and then opening his second hamburger. His second hamburger he did take his time with, giving Cassie time to enjoy her lunch and not feel rushed. They did have an amusing scramble over a couple of Peter's fries when she finished hers, but it was in good fun and he let her have them. It was definitely worth it to see her flash him a victory smile when she successfully stole and ate them.
It was halfway through his second burger that the hairs on the back of his neck stood on end. Peter looked around for potential danger, and when Cassie noticed his behavior, she sat up straight. She knew what that look meant.
"Peter?"
Peter focuses on listening to his surroundings, and when he hears a faint beeping that definitely didn't belong, he grabs Cassie's arm.
"Get down!"
She did. Peter pulled them down to the floor and under their table just as an explosion goes off, and he covers her body with his own. Screams filter through the booming of collapsing parts of the building, and Cassie presses herself closer to Peter when a large chunk of concrete falls too close for comfort. The table they were under wasn't much protection but it was definitely better than nothing and Peter made himself Cassie's second line of defense. He was much more likely to survive a hit on the head if that's what it came to.
And it did. A large piece of the building falls onto the table, knocking it over, and a second smaller piece immediately follows. It hits the back of Peter's head just before the rest of the building collapses, and he blacks out to the sound of Cassie screaming for him.
__________________________
"I'm telling you, they'll fake it and run it in." Sam says and Clint snorts.
"If they do they're stupid. The other team will see it coming a mile away." Clint twirl the pencil in his hand. "Hey Quill! What's holding you up?!"
"I may be a god but I only have two hands assholes!"
Quill walks into the living room with his arms full of beer and snacks, throwing the cans at everyone waiting while also dumping the snacks on the coffee table. Most of the team decided on a day of watching football games and basically screwing around, and even Tony and Stephen had joined them. Harley was at a friend's house, Peter and Cassie were at the mall, and Diana was with Wanda, Natasha, and Pepper for a girls day. Cassie was invited too but she wanted to spend the day with Peter instead since they didn't get much time together. Especially alone. It was always with someone or other kids.
Stephen wasn't really watching the game, but he was still enjoying the company. Tony on the other hand was one of the one's placing bets on scores and future plays.
"Someone could have helped me." Quill gripes.
"Talk to your boyfriend." Tony snarks and the god prepares to throw a beer at him.
Then he freezes. Swirls of colors fill his eyes until everyone sees nothing but miniature versions of the galaxy (humorously dubbed Galaxy Eyes by the team), and Tony holds up his hands.
"Whoa, easy Porcupine. Nothing to get mad about!"
Scott looks up from the pad of paper he's scribbling everyone's bets on, and practically jumps over the coffee table to get to Quill. "He's not mad, something's wrong!" He reaches up and grabs the pirate's face. "Hey, what are you looking at?"
Quill's galaxy filled eyes focus on Scott. "Cassie."
"Boss, there's been an explosion at the mall." FRIDAY says immediately after and Tony and Stephen jump to their feet.
_________________________
"Peter!"
Cassie winces as she tries to move the slab of metal pinning her leg. It thankfully wasn't hurting her, but it was uncomfortable and she was afraid it could start cutting off the circulation. Her main concern was getting closer to Peter because there was blood coming from the back of his head and a piece of metal was cutting into his side. Calling him into awareness probably wasn't a good idea yet, so Cassie looked around for anything loose that she could use to help lift the metal off her leg. There was a metal rod a little buried nearby, but with some careful wiggling to make sure it wouldn't disturb anything, Cassie managed to grab it and pull it out. She shoves it under the metal slab and uses all her strength to push down on the rod, barely managing to pull her leg out of its trap before the metal crashes back down. The thought of her leg being crushed under it had her skin crawling.
The next thing she did was move closer to Peter and check his injuries. The back of his head was already starting to slowly heal over, but the metal piercing his side was the bigger problem. Peter had told her in the past that he had coded his suit for Cassie to use in case of an emergency, and this was definitely an emergency so there was no time like the present to see if it was true. She reaches over to pull his nanotech bracelet off his wrist and slips it over her own, activating the suit like she had seen Peter do before. The nanites crawl over her skin until the suit forms to her body and the rest of it turns on.
"Hello Cassie." Karen greets her.
"Oh my god, he really did code it for me." Cassie breathes out and then shakes her head. "Can I safely remove the piece of metal?"
"Only if you apply a compression web immediately afterwards." Karen responds. "I've already taken the liberty to turn on the GPS signal for your parents to find you, but it will take some time to reach you."
"Okay."
Karen automatically sets the web shooter to compression webs and Cassie pushes up on the concrete with the distended piece of metal until it slides out of Peter's side. She shifts the concrete aside just enough so that the metal doesn't come back down onto either of them, and then applies the web to Peter's side after she lifts his shirt. He groans as the nanites crawl back into their housing unit, and Cassie removes the bracelet to return to Peter. That was all she could do for now. She wasn't strong enough to move the metal and concrete around them, and even if she was, she couldn't risk having the building fall more on them or anyone else that was stuck like them. The suit only provided so much strength as well. If Cassie thought about it, Peter probably coded it that way because the strength he used came from him.
"Shit..." Peter hisses as he rejoins the waking world and the pain from both his head and his side throb in unison.
"Peter." Cassie leans over him and he startles until she brushes a loose strand of hair away from his forehead.
"Oh...hey. Are you hurt?" Peter asks and she shakes her head. "Okay good." He sits up and lifts his shirt when he feels the web sticking to his side. "Did you do this?"
"Had to. I was afraid you would wake up and move the metal and make things worse."
"You're making me look bad by saving my life all the time." Peter jokes.
"You saved me from the explosion and the building. This is nothing."
Peter looks around their small prison, fully intending to take the joke farther, but instead his breathe traps itself in his throat. Their situation was way too similar to when the Vulture dropped the warehouse on him and he started to hyperventilate. He couldn't lift everything off this time. There was someone that could get hurt if he tried and he didn't want to hurt Cassie...but he was feeling claustrophobic. The air felt suffocating and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't inhale properly.
"Nononono...I can't...can't..." Peter heaves through another attempt to inhale and Cassie grabs his face with both her hands.
"It's okay. You're okay. Breathe Peter."
Peter tried, but just when he stopped hyperventilating, it would start all over again. Cassie remained vigilant and patient as she continued to coach him through his breathing, until finally she chose to use a distraction. She kissed him...and it worked. All of his attention went to her and when she finally moved away, he was breathing properly again and was much calmer.
"Better?"
"I'm not sure. Maybe you should do it again just to be sure." Peter mumbles and Cassie smiles.
"Our parents should be here any second. At least that's what Karen said."
Peter nods and rests the side of his head against some concrete, and Cassie moves to sit next to him so she can lay her head on his shoulder. She slips her hand into his to help keep him grounded and he closes his eyes to focus on her breathing and her heartbeat. It was what got him through the rest of the time they were stuck and he was kind of glad she was with him. Not so much that she had been in danger, but that he wasn't alone. Which brought another fear inducing thought to the front of his pounding head.
"Your parents are going to kill me. Especially Quill."
Cassie squeezes his hand. "No they won't."
Voices reach their ears about ten minutes later, and Peter jerks away from the concrete he's leaning against when it shifts. The concrete and metal around them crunch in warning, but instead of falling onto them, they fall away to reveal Tony in his suit and Quill. The celestial immediately scoops Cassie up into his arms and takes her outside while Tony helps Peter to his feet. The teen groans and holds his side, and Tony helps him out of the building.
"Hey, look at me." His father says. "At me Underoos." Peter blinks in the sunlight and looks up at Tony.
"...gonna be sick." Peter manages to croak out and Tony keeps him up as he brings up his lunch. The sunlight aggravated his pounding head and the pain made him nauseous.
"Mama Bear! Peter needs your attention right now." Peter feels himself being moved and he sighs with relief when Levi drapes itself over his head to block out the sunlight. "You got him?"
"Yes. Go take care of everything else." Stephen says as he carefully directs Peter to the back of an ambulance truck to sit.
Peter leans against one of the doors as Stephen tends to his side, and as soon as he's properly patched up, the sorcerer uses some of his magic to alleviate his headache. Peter just wanted to sleep for a couple of days to let his body heal and also because the panic attack he had earlier left him feeling drained, but he absolutely had to make sure Cassie was okay. He wouldn't put it past her to lie to him in a situation like that to keep him calm.
"Cassie?"
"She's perfectly fine. Nothing but a couple of scratches." Stephen assures him. "Just rest. She'll probably come over as soon as she can get away from Scott and Quill."
Peter harrumphs. "You mean never?"
Stephen chuckles. "Do you still need the cloak?"
Peter lifts part of the cloak to let in some of the sunlight, and when it doesnt have him keeling over to hurl again, he shakes his head. Levi slowly floats off of him and settles back onto Stephen's shoulders and Peter leans forward to rest his forehead on the sorcerer's chest.
"I just want to sleep." He mumbles.
"Don't you want a shower first? You're filthy." Stephen carefully brushes his fingers through Peter's hair, being mindful of the healing wound.
"Too tired. I'll take one after a nap."
"Alright."
Stephen portals them all back to the tower once Tony gets everything settled with the right people, and Peter passes out as soon as his head falls into Cassie's lap. She had barely gotten comfortable when he laid on the couch and used her as a pillow, and Quill and Scott were still kind of fussing over her despite the fact that she told them repeatedly that she was fine.
"For the last time, I'm fine. I promise." Cassie pushes Scott's hands away.
"I never want to see you like that again." Quill says and they all knew he was talking about through his celestial gaze.
"My parents are Avengers, and I live with Avengers. It's going to happen."
Stephen directs the two to an empty couch. "She's safe now and that's what matters. Just go back to watching football. Clint and Sam will be back soon and you can all raid our fridge again."
Tony groans loudly. "Stephanie..."
"They helped dig our son out of another building. Hush. Besides, restocking the fridge costs pennies to you."
"Fine." The engineer points at Quill. "Stay away from my Skittles, Porcupine."
"Thanks for telling me you have some." Quill says with a grin.
"Son of a-"
