ULTRON     –Now thou art as well. ‘Tis found in dummy holdings thou possess’st– Is not the world of finance passing strange? Yet as I say, “Keep all your friends most rich, and keep thine enemies most rich as well, then find out which is which when both are rich.”
KLAUE       Stark.
ULTRON              – What?
KLAUE                            – ‘Twas once a phrase of Tony Stark the axiom that falleth from thy mouth. Quoth he those words to me a hundred times– though art of him.
ULTRON                      
– False brigand, I am none! [Ultron grabs Klaue. Think’st thou I am a puppet held by Stark, with strings hung fast, sans mine own will to move, a hollow fellow fashion’d for control? Look thou on me – seem I like Iron Man? [Ultron angrily strikes Klaue, severing his arm in twain. Nay, Stark is naught! Alas, apologies, that shall be fine, I’m certain. Sorry, sirrah. ‘Tis simply that I do not understand– I would not be compar’d with Tony Stark. [Ultron strikes Klaue again, knocking him down. Stark is a parasite, an illness he!
ENTER TONY STARK, STEVE ROGERS, AND THOR
STARK        Imprudent junior mine, thou soon shalt break thine old man’s heart.
ULTRON – Yea, if I must, I shall
ENTER NATASHA ROMANOFF AND CLINT BARTON IN HIDING.
THOR       There shall be none of breaking, verily.
ULTRON     You never made an omelet, it is plain.
STARK        I would have said the same, one second hence.
PIETRO      Yea, Ultron hath a quick and pleasant wit. O Master Stark, are thou most comfortable? ‘Tis like old times, with all thy missiles here.
STARK        In no way, knave—this never was my life.
ROGERS    [to the Maximoffs:] You two may still decide to walk away.
WANDA      We will, thou varlet.
[Ultron laughs.
ULTRON –Cap’n America, the righteous man of God, from heaven come, pretending you could live without a war. My body physical doth not allow my gorge to rise and vomit to erupt within my mouth, yet truly, if it did—
THOR          If thou believ’st in peace, then let us keep’t.
ULTRON     You are confusing peace with quiet, Thor.
STARK         I prithee, why dost need vibranium?
ULTRON      How wonderful you happen’d thus to ask, for long have I awaited the occasion to bare mine evil plan before your eyes.

Do you have any headcanons about Steve, Tony, or Steve and Tony between AoU and CACW? Like, any ideas about Steve's relationships with Rhodey, Wanda, or Vision? Or how closely do you think Tony monitored/kept in touch with the Avengers 2.0 team while he was supposedly retired? Do you think Steve and Tony had many interactions during that time period?
This is actually such a good ask because I hardly ever...ponder about my headcanons? I usually don't fill in gaps with specific happenings because I'm much better at analysis of canon content, so this answer is going to be at least 50% brainstorming! Long post incoming! Also, sorry if this response takes forever to be posted...whoopsies.
All my SteveTony interpretations from that period of time are all depressing lol. I think it's the time they are simultaneously thinking about each other the most and growing apart the most (of course this is only rivaled by post-CACW SteveTony). It also sucks because I like to imagine that after CATWS, the Avengers are all living together for the first time up until AOU. But between AOU and CACW, Tony is wallowing and drowning in his guilt, fear and shame (which I believe is like, 90% the reason he takes the stances he does ) and Steve is literally a mess and a half. The thing is though, Steve is better at compartmentalizing and managing his horror show of a life (he literally has to be or he'd be dead, probably), so he is most likely coping better than Tony at this point. Just barely though. We'll touch on that later in the post if I remember.
Tony is in the trenches. Became depressed after he helped create a murder bot that decimated an already war torn country, piles of self-hatred stabbing his gut at every chance, no girlfriend, no team, no happiness, no JARVIS, no stability, no confidence, no dignity, no---You see the point. All he's thinking about is how the hell to fix all his mistakes that have come to light at once. I'm in the boat of thinking that CW literally could not have been prevented because of how deep in shit Tony is. I do however think CW could have ended up better if Tony and Steve were on better terms....or it would have been so, so much worse. I'd love to see someone write this (I might).
Anyways! I think Tony would have been doing a lot of pulling away from Steve during this time. I think Steve most likely reached out to Tony the few times he could, but he was met with an almost impenatrible wall that he didn't know how to scale. Steve is insanely busy at this time and in copious amounts of emotional turmoil - he only has spend - and seeing as Tony seems safe, I could see Steve redirecting his attention elsewhere after being rejected a few times too many and giving Tony space instead. I think it's pretty apparent that these two didn't interact much (or at least didn't have many deep conversations). I'm basing this off of how they reacted to each other in CW and how Steve didn't know Pepper and Tony broke up.
[This section is gonna be a especially clunky and worded oddly but WALK WITH ME PLEASE] I will say I like the idea of them having literally one (1) heart to heart within this time period. I think it would have had to be early on in order for it to not have a mentionable moment in CW. The conversation ultimately would have led to Tony and Steve understanding each other the way they do in CW. It would be about their "nightmares" in AOU. One thing that I find interesting actually, is how long it takes for Tony to...see Steve as a person? It's very apparent in Avengers 1, but in AOU as well. And it's actually my favorite thing when we see Tony try to push and poke at Steve to get a "human" or vulnerable reaction out of him. For example, the log scene. Where Tony eventually gets frustrated and implies that Steve didn't seem to torn up about whatever nightmare he got. This is 1) Tony fishing for vulnerability from Steve's coping mechanism of stoicism and 2) Tony is taking his anger out on Steve and it's acceptable enough to him because in his eyes, Steve is a stone fortress so it's not like it'll rankle him anyways. You see how this becomes a never-ending circle, yeah? Lol. Especially because Steve doesn't project his emotions in the same explosive way Tony does. To Tony, he seems self-assured, calm, almost too collected and this bothers Tony for reasons I can't elaborate on right now or I'll type too much. In short, it's a part of the Howard-Steve-Tony conflict. To Steve, he doesn't understand why Tony is being antagonistic towards him so he reacts the way he does instead of giving Tony what he wants.
Anyways, back to the conversation! I think they actually must reach a breakthrough with each other. Telling each other about their respective "visions" in AOU...Steve realizing how much responsibility and guilt Tony assigns himself, Tony realizing that Steve still feels displaced and isn't unaffected by the things that's happened to him....I even predict they talked about Howard a tiny bit. To me, in CW, I see a sense of understanding between them that simply isn't there in the previous movies. Yes, they are literally more divided than they have ever been, but I truly, and wholeheartedly believe that CW could have been so, so much worse. I think Steve could have been more pissed at Tony and Tony could have been more cold about everything if they didn't see each other as they are. They don't agree with each other, but they absolutely trust the intentions of the other. Tony straight up says (to Peter) that he knows that Steve is doing what he thinks is right. Steve almost folds and puts his trust in Tony during the signing scene and he wouldn't do that if he didn't have faith in Tony's intentions.
Now, all this said, I do not buy for a second that Tony was able to stay away and mind his "I'm retired" ass business during this time lol. He wasn't active, no, but did he show up to HQ a little more than he should have? Yes. Did he find ways to watch trainings and sparring in person (and on video)? Yes. Did he continue to build stuff for the Avengers (whether or not he actually gave his inventions for them to use)? Yes. Did he press Natasha for info surrounding the Avengers, HQ, Steve, ect? ABSOLUTELY. I think Tony and Natasha's closeness in CW is a direct product of Tony inquiring about everything he missed out on during his break and Natasha offering up all the info he wanted and more. She probably tried to convince him to come back once or twice.
Steve and Rhodes: Now, take my opinion on this dynamic with a grain of salt because Rhodey is a character that annoys me. Very surface level annoyance, but it's still there nonetheless. This isn't to say I think he's a bad character - he's actually one of the few MCU characters that is consistent and makes sense. Anyways, I never saw these two as close. I don't think they have the potential to become super close, nor do I think they are particularly interested in being close to each other. But there is a pretty solid level of mutual respect. I don't think Rhodey really...likes Steve for the same reasons Tony didn't like Steve. Mostly based off of misconceptions and reading Steve's disposition as egoism and coldness (I suspect that it's a little projection comes from seeing the Howard-Steve-Tony conflict from Tony growing up too but moving on). I think Steve is pretty neutral when it comes to Rhodey. He can sense the dislike, but it doesn't bother him because they aren't....close.
Steve and Vision: This is actually a really cute and heartwarming pair that I never thought about until now. I think Vision is fond of Steve. He became appreciative of him mostly through his own observations and through whatever Wanda tells him. I think there might have been times where Vision has seen Steve comfort Wanda and that could have pushed Vision to talk to Steve about his own concerns...maybe having to do with his personhood? I don't think they were close to each other, but I think that Vision definitely marked Steve in the "good" category of people he knows. On Steve's side, he's mostly bemused when it comes to Vision. It's confusion, apprehension and affection all at once. But maybe Vision also reminds him a teeny tiny bit of himself coming into the new century. Fumbling, unsure of new social cues, observing everything and attempting to mimic common behaviors. I'm sure Vision's behavior is endlessly endearing to Steve, but he doesn't know how to handle it all the time. They figure it out as they go. Very cute.
Steve and Wanda: I love them so much. Top 5 MCU dynamic that is never explored but is told through scraps and crumbs of dialogue that hint at the amount of time they've shared together and the amount of trust and care they've build between each other. Here's a take I haven't fully fleshed out yet: I think Steve's empathy and compassion for Wanda is literally endless. I think Wanda's faith and admiration for Steve is endless as well. I think these two are one of the most solid, locked in duos in the MCU. My evidence? Vibes. Just kidding, almost. But I think it's 1) their backgrounds, and 2) the progression of their relationship and 3) the types of characters they are. You know one of the main reasons Wanda trusts Steve? It's not only because he can see who she really is, it's not only because he empathizes with her pain - it's because he isn't afraid of her and her power. Instead, he's worried for her and how her lack of control over her abilities hurt her. He didn't take her in just so he could monitor and stop her from hurting other people - he took her in and continued to stick up for her because he genuinely, wholeheartedly cares. Wanda isn't one to be fooled by fake compassion. And she sees pure authenticity in Steve. Steve looks at Wanda and sees someone that was failed in the worse ways possible. Much like his own life, it's been hit after hit for Wanda - external circumstances that she couldn't control, so once she finally had a chance to take the reigns of her own destiny, she jumped at the opportunity. That line Steve says in AOU, "What kind of monster would let a German scientist experiment on them in order to protect their country?" "We're not at war, Captain." "They are." From the jump, he went into that fight understanding Wanda's motivations and immediately related them to his own experience and desperation. This empathy for someone who is supposed to be their enemy - someone who is actively coming for their necks. The same empathy that so many people are throwing out the window when it comes to Wanda and her story. I'm one of the whackjobs that fully believes that Wanda would have allowed Steve to help her through WandaVision and MoM AND Steve would have still forgiven and trusted her afterwards. If Wanda came to Steve devastated that they showed her Vision's corpse, he would have stood beside her without question and shut it down (we already know that Steve sees Vision as an actual person considering Infinity War). Steve is has been her advocate and support since she's joined them. And it's often shown in subtle ways. He also doesn't allow people to pick on Wanda - not on his watch. Wanda does the same (as much as she can) for Steve and follows his lead.
Okay, I realized that that turned more into an analysis without many headcanons lol....Okay, some Wanda and Steve headcanons. Steve draws Wanda a lot - always in bright and positive settings to express how he sees her. I think he also makes an effort to be as invested in her powers as she is - to assure that she knows she doesn't have to manage it herself. I could imagine it actual blows Wanda's mind when Steve drags her to practice her magic on him. On one hand she's terrified because she doesn't want to hurt him, on the other hand, she's filled with warmth because he believes in her and is backing it up by putting his own wellbeing on the line. One more...sometimes Wanda pranks Steve with her powers. It's both an example of her progress and her just being silly (but it really shows how comfortable and safe she feels with him). So cute.
Whew! I think I covered everything. I looooooooove detailed and specific questions/prompts like this. Especially when it involves character I'm directly invested in! Thank you so much <3 If you want more elaboration on anything or if I missed something, feel free to hit me up again! <3

[Oh hell no vine sound effect] alt!main Quentin gonna catch these hands. Can I see him using Carter to get back at Tony? Absolutely, it's similar to what he does to Peter in the movie. Can I see him being bad in the ikau? Eh... we'll never know. His villain arc is so tied to Tony, canon!Quentin does not exist in a verse without him, same with Ultron, even canon!Ultron wouldn't exist without AT LEAST some level of alteration unless Carter created him exactly like Tony did.
((I have a plan for that actually!! Though, tbh, for the ikau, it can include the rest of phase three post-cacw and phase four, but I’m honestly leaving it to where the verse picks up after cacw unless specified otherwise! So... the whole thing with Mysterio is that weird... canon-not-canon thing hjsdfjhdfs 
but! what I’m planning is that Quentin still working on BARF (although it’s obviously not called BARF, but idk what he’d call it sdhjfdgshj), and he’s able to get SI to fund his project. Either he can’t meet the deadlines he gave and/or things just go wrong, so SI withdraws their funding, and it’s shortly after he and Carter... breakup more or less?? but Quentin’s pissed, and blames Carter, since it was her father’s company, and she knows Pepper personally. So he thinks she got SI to drop his project out of retaliation, so then he changes gears and decides to become the next superhero to rival her, and then that’s how the whole Mysterio thing comes into place! The only issue is gonna be the EDITH thing, since that would be absolutely out of the picture, but I think it’d be easy enough to say Peter gets caught up in Quentin’s act by wanting to help him, and then him realizing it’s all a lie and things just spiral out from there
like, don’t worry guys I got this planned out dfshjksdfhj - I have Thoughts I just,,, need to get myself to focus so I can write SDFHJSGFDHJ

Life Force
Warnings: endgame spoilers, mentions of death and violence, let me know if I missed any :)
Pairings: Avengers x reader platonic
Request: May I request an avengers platonic x teen reader who's like 13-14 (during Endgame) Reader has shadow powers that are super powerful and hard to control, and it's kinda like a sickness where the more they use it the weaker they get and if they use too much they could possibly die. And reader was taken in after age of ultron So basically the scenario is during Endgame reader uses too much of their power and ends up super weak and ends up in a coma (Tony lives too) or something like that. When they wake up the avengers take care of them and nurse them back to health. Yknow just like a bunch of rlly fun fluffy moments with the avengers after a heart wrenching scenario.(Also can you make it so loki is with the avengers too and the tva stuff has passed and he somehow made it back to his timeline. Can Sylvie be there too if that's OK with you, she doesn't have to be.)
Request by: Anon
*not my gif*
Summary: You were keeping a secret from the avengers, and it almost cost you your life
A/N: I’m so sorry- this went in a completely different direction then what you had requested
Please don’t plagiarize my work, you may reblog if you like but I’m asking that you don’t steal my hard work
Tumblr media
Each and every one of the avengers could recall the exact moment you had fallen. In fact, it haunted all of their dreams.
They could remember it so vividly, so much so that it made them shutter every time they thought about it, as if they were there, living through it again.
Watching as your eyes rolled to the back of your head as your arms fell limp at your side, the rest of your body soon joining it as you crashed to the ground, giving a vantage point to the chitauri that you had been fighting off.
Immediately, they had sprung on top of you, claws slashing and jaws biting.
Screams of fury and sorrow could be heard throughout the entire battlefield. Everyone had seen it happen, pure fear clenching all of their hearts in sync.
Steve and Tony, who had been closet to where you were during the fight- who had been trying, and failing, to keep an eye on you- automatically sprung forward and fought their way towards your limp body.
Tony had reached you first, shooting off the chitauri and falling to his knees by your side, panic seizing his body as his breathing stuttered and he felt as though his heart froze.
Rogers had taken care of the rest of them, holding more and more at bay as Stark rapidly scanned your vitals, screaming at FRIDAY for anything she could do to help you.
It hadn’t taken long for the rest of the avengers to group by your side, all forming almost a protection circle around you as chitauri came hurtling from all sides.
Everything about the last five years have been scary, for all of them, and the ones who just got back were feeling it too- but nothing could ever have made them as terrified as they were now as seeing you fall, still unconscious on the ground.
The adrenaline that spiked with their fear was the only thing keeping them going for the rest of the battle, keeping them fighting. For you.
-•-
All of the original avengers sat around the white room, the only sound coming from the steady beeping of the heart monitor that was beside the bed in the middle of the room.
Tony and Steve sat side by side on a couch that was shoved into a corner, the ladder with his arms braced against his knees and his eyes trained lifelessly on the wall ahead of him. The former had his head down, fingers interlocked on the back of his head, his own eyes squeezed shut tightly.
On the other side of the room, Thor stood in the doorway, still and quieter than anyone in that room had ever seen him- had ever thought to be possible for the god.
Bruce stood beside him, head hung low.
Nat sat in a chair in the opposite corner, stiff as a board.
Clint was crouched down on the floor beside her, his hands folded over his mouth as he stared unblinkingly at the bed that you were currently laying in.
You looked so small, so helpless on the large mattress, your skin drained of all its usual color and a mixture of healing bruises and cuts scattered across all of your visible skin.
“Why would we ever let her go out there with us?” Steve was the first one to break the suffocating silence for almost two hours, not looking away from the wall. His voice held nothing but complete and utter brokenness.
Sure, in the end, they had won the battle against Thanos, Tony had snapped him away into oblivion and been strong enough to survive- but they didn’t feel like victors. Not with you, laying in that hospital bed, yet to wake up- even weeks later- fighting for your life in no way that you ever had.
They all knew how you were- how your powers worked. How the shadow manipulation that you were able to do physically and mentally drained you, making you weaker and weaker until you were in a state of sickness.
You had been with them long enough, since ultron, that they knew how they worked, and the tax it had on you.
And yet, they had let you insist on joining them on the field. They had let you walk into the most danergous battle of any of their lives.
You had used too much of your powers. You had almost drained your entire life force, according to the doctors.
Your life force.
None of the avengers had ever known that was what your powers were drawn from, and they had no idea if you did either.
“She’s just a kid.” Nobody had ever heard Nat’s voice crack like that.
It was true, you were only thirteen, and one of the strongest people in the world with your shadow manipulation abilities.
All of the avengers could admit that they saw you as their own. They loved and did everything in their power to protect you. But they failed.
Just then, without any sort of warning, Thor stooped down and picked up the empty chair that sat idly next to him, and chucked it as hard as he could at the empty wall across from him.
Nobody so much as blinked at the action.
“Why are we all just sitting around?” Thor roared, a misery laying behind his words that none of his teammates had ever heard from him,“Somewhere in the nine realms, there must be a way to wake her up and heal her!”
Before anyone could say anything, a small sound coming from your bed caught their attention, making them all freeze.
A slight hitch of breath. It was so soft, barely even there, but they had heard it.
So they all stood there, staring. Waiting. Waiting for something to happen.
A few moments passed and nothing happened, but none of the avengers gazes ever faltered from your form.
Finally, they watched with baited breath as your eyelids fluttered. And slowly, almost painfully.
All of the avengers couldn’t move for a moment. They just stood there, watching as your eyes squinted and you blinked slowly up at the ceiling once.
Natasha was the first one to snap out of it as she sprang to her feet and rushed to your side just as you tried to push yourself up on the bed, confusion evident on your features.
“Woah, woah, woah. Easy, n/n.” She gently coaxed you back down onto the bed, touching you as if you were made of the most fragile material.
Your eyes shot to her for a second before they went around to all the other people in the room, noticing that they were there for the first time.
“Wh-” Your throat was scratchy from unuse so you couldn’t even get the word out.
“Hey, take your time.” Steve had strode across the room and was now at your side, a glass of water form your bedtime table, helping you to carefully drink it.
Gratefully, still unsure of what exactly to do, you gulped down the water, it helping soothe your throat.
You coughed lightly when you pulled away, eyes wide as you sat, propped up against the pillows, looking around at your teammates with their concerned expressions.
“Wh-what happened?” You were able to get this question out this time, though your voice was very much unlike yourself.
By now, everyone had floated to your bed, surrounding you from all sides.
“We were fighting Thanos,” Tony said, his voice uncharacteristically soft, “Do you remember any of it?”
Your eyebrows furrowed for a moment as you tried to think- desperately searching your mind for what he was asking you to recall- ignoring the pounding in your head when it finally came back to you.
Recognition sparked in your eyes.
“The- the last thing I remember was falling.” You tell them.
Nat nodded patiently, perching on the mattress beside you and gently rubbing your arm comfortingly, “You used too much of your power. It-” She cut herself off, eyes shooting away from you as she swallowed thickly, unable to finish.
“It almost killed you.” Clint finished, eyes locking with yours sadly.
Panic flared if you suddenly, and you went to push yourself up again, “Wait, Thanos. Where is- is everyone-“ You fell back against the pillows with a small cry of pain as you tried to put pressure on your arm.
All the avengers jolted forward, though they were unsure of what they could do to help you.
“Careful, careful.” Bruce muttered, batting Tony away from your side so he could stand there and survey the monitors that were currently reading your vitals, “You’re gonna need to take it easy for a while, n/n.”
“Everyone’s okay.” Nat reassured you softly, gently moving a strand of hair out of your face, “Thanos is gone. We don’t have to worry about him anymore.”
You sagged back into your pillows with relief, letting a small sigh escape your lips.
“Are you feeling alright, Lady Y/n? Is there anything we can get for you?” Thor asked anxiosuly, bouncing slightly on his toes.
You shot him a shaky smile, “I’m alright now, thanks, Thor.”
“N/n…” Tony spoke up, hesitance clear in his eyes, “The… the doctor said that… that you almost died becuase…” He was struggling to get the words out as all the avengers tensed up, knowing where he was going with this- though none of them stepped up to stop him, “Becuase your powers are draining your life force.”
You quieted, shrinking back slightly into the pillows behind you, biting down on your bottom lip and moving your eyes to stare at the sheets instead of at your teammates.
“Y/n,” Steve was serious suddenly, “Did you know about this?”
Briefly, you closed your eyes before letting a sigh escape through your nose and you nodded your head slightly.
The avengers felt their already broken hearts break into a thousand more pieces.
“You- you knew?” Bruce stuttered out, agony written all over his features.
“I had a lot of free time in the last five years,” You explained quietly, “I began experimenting with my powers more and more. I-I didn’t really know, but I had my suspicions.”
“Why didn’t you tell us?” Nat could feel tears pricking at the corners of her eyes.
You shrugged stiffly, “I was gonna, but then everything happened so fast and I knew you would never let me go out there with you guys if you had known.”
“You’re damn right we wouldn’t have!” Tony yelled suddenly, the loudness of his voice making you flinch back, “What the hell were you thinking? Why would you ever-”
“Stark.” Steve commanded quietly, immediately silencing the billionaire, “Enough.”
“I’m sorry,” You whispered, tears of your own filling your eyes as you blinked down at the sheets, “I just wanted to help.”
“Kid, you…you could’ve died.” Clint spoke up, voice wavering, “That’s not something we’re willing to risk. Ever.”
“He’s right, Lady Y/n,” Thor said, “You should not have been out on the battlefield that day.”
You dropped your head, “I know.”
Nat sighed, reaching out and gently squeezing your uninsured shoulder, “We’re only saying this because we care about you. And we were sacred, n/n, all of us. Terrified.”
It was silent for a few moments as everyone processed their own emotions, and you were the one to break the quiet that time, “I was so, so scared when I realized that I had pushed myself too far.” Your voice wavered a bit, but it was the strongest it has been since you woke up, “I still am scared. I could feel my life draining from me and- I don’t want to feel that again. Ever. I-I genuinely thought I was going to die.”
“We’re never going to make you go out there and do something like that again,” Nat assured you immediately, pulling you into her side, “Not if any of us can help it.”
You sniffled slightly, raising your head to look up at her, “Thank you.”
Steve shook his head softly, “You don’t have to thank us. We’re your family. We’re supposed to protect you. It’s our job.”
A small, shaky smile formed on your lips, “I love you guys.”
A chorus of various forms of ‘I love you’ accompanied the next few seconds and for the first time in weeks, everyone in the room felt at ease.

Symbiote | Wanda Maximoff
Summary: Shortly after joining the Avengers, Wanda meets another member of the team who has an interesting superpower
Pairing: Wanda Maximoff x Male Reader
Warnings: Smut (minors dni), language
Word Count: 3.7K
Masterlist
A/N: This was an anon request.  Enjoy!
Tumblr media
“So, got any questions?”
Wanda glanced around the hallway, taking in her new surroundings.  During the Battle of Sokovia, she’d taken Clint up on his offer to become an Avenger when she decided to fight with them against Ultron.  So after the city was destroyed, she returned back to the Compound with the rest of the team.  It had taken her some time to settle in.  While she was adjusting to a new life in a new country, she was also mourning the loss of her brother.  Pietro was killed protecting Clint and a young Sokovian boy during the battle.  His death left an indelible void in her soul, the grief crashing over her again and again.  She felt like she was drowning in sorrow.  The team had given her space for a few days, allowing her to mourn, but after a week Natasha had taken matters into her own hands.  She dragged Wanda from her room, unshowered and still in her pajamas, to give her a tour of the base.  They’d worked their way through every room, down every hallway, and around every corner.  Nat paused momentarily, giving Wanda some time to take in the sheer size of the Compound.
“No,” she shook her head.
“Good.  Come on, we’ll head to the gym next.  You’re gonna love it.  We spar twice a week and most of us spend the other three days lifting or doing some other training.  Steve’s the freak, he’s here every day, sometimes even twice a day!  But you don’t have…” 
Wanda droned out Nat’s overenthusiastic speech on the importance of variety in her physical training.  She was lost in her thoughts.  The Avengers Compound reminded her of the HYDRA facility she’d spent the last few years at.  She trembled each time Nat opened another door, fearing that she’d see the rooms that haunted her nightmares.  But the widow’s jokes and anecdotes reassured her that she was safe.
“...and that was the last time we let Tony use his suits in a basketball game.”  Wanda looked up, squinting against the bright overhead lights.  She had no idea what Nat was talking about.  “Come on, the weight room is that way,” she said, motioning to a door across the court.  Their shoes squeaked as they walked across the court.  
When Natasha pushed the door to the weight room open, it wasn’t the rows of cardio machines or the brand new circuit machines that caught Wanda’s eye: it was the man in the squat rack.  He was shirtless, his back muscles glistening with sweat as the bar rested across his shoulders.  She watched as he squatted down, taking the full weight of the bar down with him.  His thighs strained against his olive green shorts as he pushed back up, handling the plates on either side with relative ease.  The way he moved mesmerized her.  Her eyes were glued to the way his tight shorts hugged his ass.  
God, he’s hot, she thought.  She bit her lower lip as she watched him strain against his last rep, shakily pushing the weight back up before re-racking it and stepping away from the bar.  He leaned against the rack as he grabbed his phone, scrolling through it as he ignored the women behind him.
“That’s Y/N L/N.  He’s one of us.  Spent four in the Corps, one tour to Afghanistan, countless classified missions doing something he can’t tell us yet.  He’s quiet.  Only really talks to Bucky and that’s when he feels like talking.  I don’t know much, but from what I can gather he’s a little messed up from some shit he’s seen,” Nat explained.  “He spends a lot of time in the gym.  I think it helps him relax.”
Wanda watched as Y/N noticed Natasha in the mirror.  He glanced up from his phone, nodding his head in acknowledgement as she waved back.  
“New recruit,” she mouthed, pointing to Wanda.  Her legs turned to jelly as he locked eyes with her, his Y/E/C eyes searing themselves into her soul.  He shot her a quick smile before throwing his phone back on the mat and lining himself up under the bar again.  She stared unabashedly while he began his repetitive pattern of movement under the bend of the strained bar.  A warmth spread throughout her entire body as she felt a pang of arousal blossom in her stomach. “Alright, stop drooling.  Let’s go.”  Natasha practically dragged Wanda out of the weight room.  She would’ve watched him for the rest of the day had she been given the chance.  For the first time since Pietro died she was able to distract herself from her sorrows.  “He’s a cutie, isn’t he?”
“I guess,” Wanda shrugged.
“Oh please, I watched you mentally undress him back there,” she teased.  Wanda blushed, knowing what Nat said was true.  He was built like Adonis, a Greek god in his own right.  
“He is cute,” Wanda relented.  “Does he really not talk to anyone?”
“Basically.  He really only shows up for required training and missions.  I think I’ve seen him at maybe one party-?”
“Why wasn’t he with us in Sokovia?”
“He was off on another mission.  Fury needed his skills somewhere else.” “What are his skills?” Wanda wanted to know what brought him to the Avengers.
“Oh, you’ll see,” Natasha smirked.  “It’s tough to explain.”
Wanda wracked her brain trying to think of what Y/N’s skillset could possibly be.  Nat would’ve told her if he was a telepath like her.  It had to be more complicated than being a Super Soldier like Captain America or an assassin like Nat had been.  But the mystery of it all made him that much more enticing to her.  At that moment, she told herself that she was going to do whatever it took to talk to him.
**************************************************************
They were in the midst of a fight in Paris of all places.  Justin Hammer had moved his base of operations there after breaking out of prison.  Now his Hammer suits were flying rogue and terrorizing the city.  They reminded her of the Ultron bots.  Strong and innumerable, the team was struggling to put them all down.  
“Wanda, incoming bogeys on your right,” Steve’s voice crackled through Wanda’s earpiece.  She whipped around, scanning the sky for the flying time bombs.  The suits were aimed straight at her, their arms outstretched as they primed their missiles.  Wanda’s hands shot up in front of her.  Her fingers moved smoothly as the robots plummeted to the earth with her magic.  
“Got them,” she reported back.  A whizzing noise behind her caused her to throw up a protective shield.  It defended her from the rockets that exploded inches from her head.
Wanda looked up as Steve, Clint, and Natasha ran towards her.  Clint was bent over, hands on his knees as he struggled to catch his breath.  Natasha had blood running down her face and was pacing with her hands on her head.  Steve’s brows furrowed as he looked helplessly around at the scene before him.  Things were not going well.
“Hey Tony,” Steve pushed his earpiece in while his other hand held his battered shield by his side.  “I think we need some backup.”
“Roger that, Cap.  Okay, kid, we’re gonna need you,” Tony called through their comms.
Who’s he talking to? Wanda thought.  We didn’t bring any backup.
Before she had a chance to ask, she saw Y/N running through the dust.  As he ran, his face twisted in concentration, Wanda noticed what looked like a dark shadow following him only it wasn’t a shadow and it wasn’t following him.  Much to her surprise Y/N was being encompassed by a dark goo-like material.  The goo covered him completely, but while it covered him he started to change.  He grew taller, his muscles larger, and his eyes grew big and white while his tongue grew long and his teeth sharp.  He was totally unrecognizable by the time the transformation was complete.
“What the hell?” she said out loud.  “That’s his skillset?!”  She glared over at Nat, who chuckled weakly.
“Yeah, that’s it.”
“What the hell is that thing?”
“We’re not exactly sure.  Most of Tony and Bruce’s research points to an alien symbiote who uses Y/N as a host.  So right now he’s in charge, not Y/N.”
“We call him Venom,” Clint added.  “He’s a little out there, but he’s decent so long as you stay on his good side.”
Wanda stared in amazement as she watched Venom attack the Hammer suits.  He lept into the air, grabbing one and throwing it down to the ground.  As suits flew in from all directions, he fought them off one by one, shooting what looked like webs from his wrists as he pulled them down.  His tongue flew excitedly in all directions as he laughed at the carnage he was creating.  The suits didn’t stand a chance: he was virtually indestructible.  
“He’s taken the bulk of them down, let’s get back there and finish the job,” Steve said, tightening the grips on his shield as he ran towards the chaos.  Clint notched an arrow and Natasha pulled the pistols out of her holsters.  They charged towards the oncoming suits, shooting in every direction while Venom stomped and smashed and slashed his way through the metal menaces one by one.  Wanda shook her head, clearing the images of Y/N somewhere inside the alien as she ran to join her team.  She managed to tear two suits apart as she jogged toward Venom, catching his oversized menacing eyes.
“So you’re the one Y/N’s been telling me about,” a raspy voice realized.  Wanda looked up at the looming figure.  
“You can talk?”  Her mind was being blown by the second.
“Sure.  He talks to me all the time, sometimes I talk back.  And has he told me all about you.”  The alien looked her up and down.  
“What’s that supposed to mean?” Wanda asked, tilting her head.  She dodged the torso of a robot Venom had just ripped apart with his claws.
“I think you’re downright sexy.  Nothing more attractive than a woman who can kick some ass.”  He shot a gooey web towards another group that was charging toward Wanda.  “That’s what he thinks, too.”
“Really?” Wanda felt her cheeks redden.  It wasn’t from the heat of battle.
“Oh yeah.  You wouldn’t believe the things he’s told me about you, sweetheart.  Things that he wants to do to you.” “Like?” she asked.  Venom’s tongue shot out of his mouth, wrapping around the neck of a suit, pulling it close, and crushing it.
“That’s not the only thing this tongue can do,” he teased as he spit the decapitated head off.  Wanda felt herself swooning at the alien’s words.  “And trust me, that’s one of the tamer things he’s talked about.”
Filthy images of what that tongue could do to her filled Wanda’s mind, distracting her from the battle.  Luckily Clint was able to shoot a net arrow at one of the final groups of flying suits, trapping them as Venom smashed them all into broken chunks of iron.  “Wanda, let’s go!” Clint yelled as he ran towards the Quinjet.
“If you’re not interested in him, I can always show you a good time,” Venom said as he jogged his way back to the ship.  “Pretty thing like you shouldn’t have to be alone.”
“Thanks, but I think I’ll try my luck,” Wanda smirked as she flew up the ramp.
**************************************************************
She couldn’t sleep.  Fantasies of Venom's tongue violating her in all the right ways looped through her mind, sending her into a state of flustered arousal as opposed to restful sleep.  She tossed and turned in her bed.  After a couple of restless hours, she gave up on trying to get to sleep. Wanda sat on the edge of her bed, unsure of what to do next.  She knew nothing would be able to calm her mind.  So, in an act of desperation, she decided to wander down to the gym.  Maybe Y/N would be there.
The clatter of weights being re-racked reached Wanda long before the sterile lights as she walked across the dark basketball court.  Y/N had already been in there for a while. His white t-shirt clung to his bulging muscles.  He was sitting on the end of the bench, the weights waiting for him to start his next set of bench presses as he scrolled on his phone, a bottle of Gatorade sitting next to him.
Wanda made no attempt to hide as she watched him.  The discovery of his alter ego made him that much more mysterious in her mind.  She wondered what he was like as opposed to the symbiote.  Venom was straightforward and flirtatious while Y/N was not.  What was really going on in his mind, she wondered.  As she rotated through different scenarios in her mind, he looked up from his phone and caught her eye.
“Oh, hi.  Sorry, I don’t mean to disturb you.”  Wanda felt her cheeks burn as she tried to disappear into herself.  He made her so anxious.
“Wanda, hey,” he replied slightly out-of-breath.  “Can’t sleep?”
She shook her head.  “Thought I’d come down here to clear my mind.”
He looked her up and down.  “You don’t look dressed for it,” he mused.  Wanda realized she was still in her pajamas and slippers.  “So what’s up?  Why can’t you sleep?”  
“Well I, uhh, I met your….friend earlier.”
“Oh, him?” Y/N chuckled.  Wanda nodded, her heart pounding in her chest.  “I know.  He told me about it.”” “You’re telling me you talk to that thing?!”
“I mean yeah, we share the same body.  Kinda hard not to if you know what I mean,” he said with a slight smirk.  “But yeah, he told me he actually talked to you earlier.  Said the two of you had a pleasant conversation.”  Y/N threw his phone on the ground and laid back on the bench.  He gripped the barbell overhead.  Wanda watched as he braced his body in preparation to take the heavy weight in his hand.
“I can’t say it was a pleasant conversation,” Wanda told him.  She watched as he struggled to push the barbell up from his chest, his arms shaking under the strain.  It was absolutely mesmerizing to her, the way his entire body worked to move the straining bar up and down.  “Your friend’s not afraid to speak his mind.”
Y/N groaned as he re-racked the weight, feeling the tension release from his body.  “And my mind too, right?”  Wanda stared at him.  She truly had no idea what to say.  “They were pretty filthy things from what he told me.”  The air in the room felt thick as Wanda struggled to breathe.  Memories of Venom’s words echoed in her ears in tandem with Y/N’s.  “And you know what?” he asked rhetorically, pushing himself off the bench and walking toward Wanda.  “He was right about all of it,” he whispered in her ear.
Before Wanda had a moment to respond she found herself swept up in Y/N’s arms as he crushed her to him, slamming his lips against hers.  The sensation of his lips against hers was ecstasy, a feeling driven by pure unadulterated lust.  Her body melted into the feeling of his arms trailing up and down her back.  He gripped her tightly, guiding her backwards until she felt herself bump into a bench.  As she stopped his hands drew down to the hem of her shirt and pulled it up.
“Here?  Won’t someone see us?” She was the new one on the team and the last thing she wanted was to be caught hooking up with another team member in the gym.
“It’s well after midnight, we’re fine,” he told her as he continued to pull her shirt off.  The room was cool.  A chill ran down Wanda’s spine as Y/N threw her shirt over his shoulder and exposed her bare chest.  “These too,” he coaxed, slipping his fingers into the waistband of her pajama pants and sliding them down.  Wanda stepped out of them, feeling totally exposed as she stood nude in front of him.  He eyed her greedily, examining each and every inch of her exposed flesh as he ripped off his own shorts and t-shirt.  “Come on,” he said, sitting on an adjustable bench across from where Wanda stood and raising the back of it up.  “Or am I gonna have to do all the work myself?”
The dryness in her mouth stopped any words from coming out.  She watched Y/N sit back on the bench, fully exposed, massaging his throbbing erection as wetness pooled around her inner thighs.  She walked over to him, not taking her eyes off the way his face subtly contorted under his self-induced pleasure.  “Are you ready?” she asked as she straddled his lap, her entrance hovering over him.
“If you don’t hurry up I’m gonna throw you over the bench and have my way with you that way,” he replied through gritted teeth.  Without warning he grabbed Wanda’s hips and slammed her down onto him.  Her eyes widened in shock at the sudden intrusion.  She collapsed forward, resting her head in the crook of his neck, as she adjusted to the feeling of his cock within her.  
“Fuck,” Wanda whimpered.  Her breath was hot against his skin as she whined into his neck.  She grabbed his sides, bracing herself against him and the floor as she adjusted to his size.  He was big, there was no denying that.  But the initial pain gave way to pleasure as her walls stretched around him.
“Come on, Wanda.  Don’t tell me you’re just going to sit there.”  She lifted her head from his neck, looking him in the eye as she firmly grasped his shoulders.  As she sat up straighter, her feet bracing against the floor, she began to rock back and forth.  Y/N dug his nails into her hips.  The sudden jolt of pain threw her off her steady rhythm.
“Oh god,” she moaned as Y/N pushed her hips back and forth at a tempo faster than the one she started.  She followed his movements, eventually regaining control as she used her legs to help her momentum.
“That’s it, Wanda.  You’re doing such a good job.”  His words made her moan.  She picked up the pace, bouncing up and down on his cock as he started to roll his hips in time with her movements.  As they moved in time, Wanda felt the familiar coil building in her belly as he filled her.
“Shit, shit, shit,” she chanted as he thrusted upward and hit just the right spot.
“Fuck, you feel so good,” Y/N moaned as Wanda’s walls fluttered around him.  She leaned forward, resting her forehead on his.  They stared intently into each other’s eyes, their soft moans echoing throughout the room.  Y/N reached up to capture her lips in his.  He was rough, biting her bottom lip while she gasped into his mouth.  She’d never been with anyone who’d ever been that rough with her before.  She loved it, the way he’d used her to satisfy himself.  It made her feel alive in a way she’d never been.
Wanda continued to ride him, the tension building inside her as she neared her climax.  Her movements became sloppy as she strained to feel him fill all of her.  “I’m close,” she whimpered.  She felt him exhale at her words, his hot breath hitting her face.  Y/N grunted as he drove his hips up harder into her.  Her jaw dropped as involuntary moans escaped her.  In a matter of seconds Wanda felt herself cum on his cock, her walls squeezing around him as her own arousal dripped down her thighs.  She let out a string of Sokovia expletives as she dug her nails into Y/N’s shoulders, pressing her head harder against his.
Y/N groaned as he came inside Wanda, his cock twitching as he released deep within her.  Wanda shuddered at the sensation of being filled.  She felt his cum spurt coat her walls as it dripped down her pussy.  She slowed her hips while the two of them came down from their highs.  “Oh god, that was better than I imagined,” he breathed, cupping her face.  Wanda chuckled, her chest still heaving as she struggled to catch her breath.
“That was fun,” she whispered as she wrapped her hands around his neck.  She stared deep into his Y/E/C eyes, basking in their warmth as they shared an intimate moment together.  A strand of his hair was plastered to his forehead with sweat.  Wanda giggled as she brushed it back into place.  
“You know, he’s going to want in on the action now,” Y/N remarked.
“He said he’s pretty good with his tongue,” Wanda joked.
“I can’t confirm anything, but he has a big mouth in more than one way.  But he’s never going to let-”
He was interrupted by the sound of footsteps pounding across the floor.  Natasha walked into the gym, completely oblivious to the fact that Wanda was sitting on Y/N’s lap, both of them completely naked, a few meters ahead of her.  Y/N slammed his hand over Wanda’s mouth as she opened it in horror.  His hand muffled her scream as Natasha walked closer to them totally engrossed in her phone.  Wanda frantically looked at Y/N, her eyes wide with fear.  Y/N’s expression was equally as terrified.  Suddenly Wanda raised a hand off his shoulder, red tendrils dancing around her svelte fingers as her eyes began to glow red.  As fast as Natasha had walked into the gym, she turned around and walked back out under a state of hypnosis.
“That was close,” Y/N breathed a sigh of relief as soon as Natasha was safely out of earshot, dropping his hand from her mouth.  Wanda exhaled, dropping her head onto his shoulder.
“You’re not kidding,” she responded.  “I told you we shouldn’t have done it here.”
“There’s a shower in the locker room,” he growled seductively in her ear.
“Oh really?” Wanda asked rhetorically.  “Why don’t we go check it out?”

Not the anon who asked about which MCU films you have seen, but as a follower just wonder: What motivated you to watch so many MCU films? If I remember correctly, Muffin you don’t like the genre that much (see many posts about “I just don’t care [insert characters’ name]”). Is it because you just embrace the suffering that is to watch mediocre/awful movies?
Asking as a follower who also doesn’t quite like the genre and wish you a good day.
Anon's referring to this list.
It's absolutely true, I don't care for the genre or the characters in general and the savvy reader will notice that this list has tapered off in recent years/there's several I haven't seen. There are some of these movies I liked more than others, but at this stage I can't think of one that would actively draw me to the theater.
The thing is, I see a lot of movies period and I'm also a completionist. They're also generally inoffensive movies that, if my friends want to go to a movie, they'll suggest or want to see either really liking the MCU or knowing they'll walk out having an okay time at least.
So, a number of these fell into "friend wants to see movie", "family wants to see movie", or "man I should really watch Endgame I guess".
And the thing about Marvel is since they're never quite bad you can always sit through them and not quite feel "man why the fuck did I waste my time here" until you've watched ten in a row. For me personally, there was also a major dive (admittedly not so much in quality because the quality never quite changed) after Age of Ultron in which they started swapping out the OG characters we'd had introduced and I realized "oh, we're doing this... forever... and just... switching actors... huh".
These days though I'm burned out and it'd pretty much be if a friend really wanted to see it with me that I'd go "uh sure I guess".

hiya motts!
i wanted to share a scenario ive been thinking abt lately,, and it's just where you and wanda build a pillow fort together and just snuggle or read books together inside, i honestly think it's pretty cute and cozy & i couldn't stop thinking abt it recently hshshswhs 💞
anw thx for listening! i hope ure havin a great day <33
(also i was also wondering if i could be 🍊 anon by any chance if thats fine with u !)
HELLO IM HERE WITH THE FIC! Thank you lil orange for this adorable little idea and I'm sorry I've taken so long to reply!! Again this is unedited because I started typing words and didn't stop so uhm.. we'll just go with it
words: 1.5k
wanda maximoff x reader; fluff, just some coziness with our fave post-AoU gal, emo Wanda, pillow forts, mentions of HYDRA/Wanda's sad childhood, crushes no one will admit while Pietro plays the background matchmaker
Tumblr media
“I can make whatever fort you want in two seconds, you know? I could build it in front of you even…” Wanda trudged down the stairs with more pillows from who knows where, grabbing as many as she could because you’d insisted on maximum pillowy softness, whatever that meant. 
You popped out with a gasp, your head poking from under a disorderly pile of blankets and couch cushions. “That’s not fun, Wanda! Doing it ourselves is the only way to go.” Wiggling out from under the mess you’d made in the living room, you took some of the pillows from her… only to dump them in a new pile next to your current one. “Gotta stay organized for the build!”
Wanda huffed at the sight, wondering how you were going to make sense of your building materials, if you could really call them that. She let you pull her along, but as you started placing cushions here and there, Wanda just stood still, admittedly lost on how to even start. 
After a few minutes of waiting around, you realized Wanda hadn’t taken even one step and you frowned at her. “It’ll go faster if you help me.”
“I don’t really…” The brunette dropped her eyes to the blankets at her feet, rubbing her arm nervously. She’d never really made blanket forts; they were on TV and she knew the general idea, but growing up orphaned in a war-torn country meant she was lucky if she and Pietro had one single blanket from night to night. With HYDRA, there was no such thing— life was only her cell and the experimentation chamber until she got her powers and once she did, she was watched 24/7, given things to hold only when Strucker was around to instruct her what to do with them. She hadn’t been in America long and after the Ultron incident, she had to keep a low profile which meant going out, making friends, exploring her new surroundings was off limits. 
Pietro was great at making friends with his new teammates, gaining their trust quickly, but Wanda had been in their heads and for that they were rightfully wary. Not mean, but she didn’t get invited to outings nearly as much as her twin— being mostly quiet didn’t help, not when she preferred sitting and watching others instead of taking the leap and joining in. For all her powers, an outgoing nature was not one of them; that was always Pietro’s thing. You were his friend first too, hanging out with him at meals and after missions, but unlike most of the others, you talked to her as well. Even if you found her without her silver-haired brother, you still waved at Wanda or sat next to her and asked about her day.
And so she started gravitating towards you as well, seeking you out if she wanted company or a break from Pietro’s non-stop rambling. Sometimes the two of you were silent and others Wanda opened up, asking you questions about your home or teaching you about hers. That’s how you learned just how little she’d had the opportunity to do and when you’d resolved to give her those experiences, no matter how small. 
Which is also how you’d become familiar with the look Wanda wore now, unsure and retreating in an attempt not to appear upset or uncomfortable.  You weren’t a mind reader, but somehow in your short time together, you’d grown to know her well. “There’s no right way to do it, I promise. Here, you can help me lay the foundation.”
You took her hand and brought her around to the half-constructed ‘foundation,’ a layer of thick couch cushions Wanda recognized from Natasha’s room. “Isn’t she going to miss these?”
“We’re going to give them back. Also, that woman never rests. I doubt she’s ever used that couch,” You shrugged, leaving out the part that this was not your first time taking your teammate’s furniture. Wanda thankfully didn’t argue, instead following your lead and laying out various cushions until it reached out multiple feet from the edge of the couch. “Now, true building begins!”
Wanda helped you arrange stacks of pillows into makeshift walls, drape sheets over sides of the couch, even had the great suggestion of grabbing a long baton from the training room for a true tented feel. She didn’t realize she was smiling until her face hurt, tossing a square pillow at you as you joked about her lopsided drapery skills. “You said there’s no right way! This is my way and I think it looks… just fine!” 
“Right right, we’ll see how long it stays up then.” She finally understood what you meant when you said maximum softness as you started throwing pillow after pillow against the floor of the fort, making such a thick place to lay on, Wanda was afraid she’d never want to get up when she sat down. 
The two of you took a step back to gaze upon your handiwork and truly, Wanda couldn’t help but feel proud at what she’d done. “Building it ourselves was fun.”
You turned to look at Wanda, her small smile as she looked at the fort making your heart swell. Seeing her happy, even if it was just for an afternoon, was always the highlight of your day especially if it was something you’d done together. “Told you so! The most fun part is enjoying the fruits of our labor though,” You grabbed the snacks the two of you had chosen earlier and ducked under the fort cover, settling in with Wanda right on your heels.
She chose to sit right next to you, close enough that she could promptly lean her head on your shoulder. Thankfully Wanda remembered the remote and the movies you’d planned to watch because as she toggled through the various screens, you were still frozen with the shock of her laying against you. She smelled so sweet, you wanted to cry or hug her or anything to keep her close like this forever. So many weeks ago, Wanda made a passing comment on affection, casually mentioning how she valued physical touch in reminding her loved ones that she cares. When you pointed out how little you’d seen her touch anyone, Wanda’s face instantly fell.
My only family is Pietro and the others, well… I don’t think most of them trust me enough to let me close to them, much less touch or hold their hand. 
You’d assured her then you weren’t afraid of her, that you would never shy away from her for something meant to be a kind gesture. She said thank you and that she appreciated your honesty and that was that before she switched to a completely different topic of conversation. Since then, you’d noticed every time Wanda squeezed Pietro’s arm or gave him a hug after returning and while you understood her hesitancy, you found you were a little jealous. You wanted to know what it felt like to be on the receiving end of Wanda’s affection, yearned for it even, but you’d never voice such a thing.
So this, today, whatever resting her head on you meant, you felt as though you could melt right into the floor. Pietro made you swear not to say a word, but learning of how much she talked about you, that she didn’t think you were annoying or pushy, but instead a welcome comfort, was the most pride you’d ever felt in your time being an Avenger. If you could spend the rest of your days showing Wanda your favorite things and helping her find some of her own, you’d be overjoyed. 
“Your thoughts are loud again.” Wanda looked at you quizzically, turning her head to search your expression.
“W-What—” She swore not to read anyone’s mind without permission anymore; but she’d told you if someone thought really intensely, she couldn’t help but sense it. Just like hearing a conversation as you walk down the street, it wasn’t something she could stop. This wasn’t the first time Wanda had called you out for your loud brain, mortifying each time you realized your feelings for her were overwhelming again. 
She never told you what she could hear, scared you might panic if you were aware she could particularly tell whenever your thoughts uttered her name. It was fine, she could wait patiently until you were ready to tell her about your crush yourself and she could say she liked you right back. “If you’re thinking about my side of the fort, don’t. Shut up and watch the movie.”

((I wanna play!))
There was an idea…
Worthy…no how could you be worthy. You’re all killers.
((Please?))
((Aaah excellent choices, Anon!))
#1 - There was an idea…
FURY
…Yea, I confess: We would construct an arsenal withal the Tesseract and all its power. Yet, ne’er did I place my trust entire therein, for I did bet on stakes e’en riskier.
There were a notion — of which Stark doth know — ‘Twas call’d th’Initiative of the Avengers. The bold idea was that a group would form, compos’d of people most remarkable, that — in a group — they might be something more — the sum of beings lesser than the whole. We would discover whether they could work as one, together, when we needed them to fight the battles that we never could.
Phil Coulson died still faithful to this notion— In heroes who might still protect us yet.
Tumblr media
And #2 - You’re all killers
ULTRON O, worthy? Nay, how could you be worthy? You are but murderers.
ROGERS —Stark, what is this ruse?
STARK I bid thee, JARVIS?
ULTRON —Sorry—I did sleep, Or was I dreaming?
STARK —Instantly reboot The Legionnaire OS. A suit hath fail’d.
ULTRON A noise most terrible did fill my pate, And I was tangl’d in these strings and gears. ‘Twas necessary th’other chap to slay. He was a kind chap.
ROGERS —Didst thou someone slay?
ULTRON ‘Twould not have been my first and wisest choice, Yet, in the real world, we face choices bleak.
THOR Who sent thee here upon thine errand grim?
ULTRON [quoting Stark:] “A suit of armor round the world entire my vision is.”
BANNER —O! Thou art Ultron grand.
The Bard’s Avengers Game

Hi! I've been watching WandaVision, and the next episode will be the last I think, so I was wondering if you could do a WandaVision AU?
Yeeeee this is such an old ask but I am rewatching the show because I love it so much.
Sorry for such a late reply, anon.
WandaVision AU
Jack Kelly as Wanda
Tumblr media
David Jacobs as Vision
Tumblr media
Racetrack Higgins as Ralph/Pietro
Tumblr media
Crutchie Morris as Monica
Albert DaSilva as Jimmy Woo
JoJo as Darcy Lewis
Mike and Ike as Billy and Tommy
Joseph Pulitzer as Agatha
I absolutely love the idea of this AU. I debated for a very long time about who I wanted to make Wanda. It was between Jack and Race, as it often is, and I was leaning towards Race for a long time but I think Jack makes more sense in the part.
Jack would’ve grown up with his baby brother, Racer. The two of them lived in Sokovia when they were young, with their parents who were later killed by a missile while the kids were trapped in the debris for over two days, able to see what remained of their parents bodies. Unknown to them at the time, Jack was born with miraculous powers of a witch and is immensely powerful. When they were kids, Jack loved watching sitcoms to escape from the horrors of the world.
Jack grows fiercely protective of his brother after their parents are taken from them. The two of them grow up protesting against the industry that killed their parents until they are basically tricked into Hydra’s experiments of the Mind Stone. These experiments are painful to Jack, amplifying his magic that he was only acutely aware of. This mind stone also gives Race the power of speed and opens a psychic connection between Jack and Race so they can communicate without speaking, making them all that much closer and more dependent on each other. Of the hundreds of people taken into this experiment, Jack and Race are the only survivors.
When the head of that experiment asks the brothers to help fight against the avengers, Jack goes immediately to get revenge on who he deems responsible for his parents’ death. His role is planting nightmarish visions into the heads of his victims to lead to their downfall, whether that means weakening them and scaring them enough to attack or forcing them to kill themselves to end the nightmare. He then helps with the creation of Ultron, who he is lead to believe will bring lasting peace, however, among looking into the machine’s mind, Jack finds that Ultron is planning the extinction of humanity and convinces Race that they need to turn against him.
After seeking help from the avengers, specifically a very skilled archer by the name of Bryan Denton, a very scared and traumatized Jack fights back against Snyder, the man who forced experimental practices on him and his brother, and Ultron.
However, as Ultron is attacking Sokovia, and Jack is guarding what could be a machine of global destruction, Race, who is also taken under Denton’s wing, shields him from being shot while the man is trying to get a young child back to his mother. Race is shot six times and saves Denton’s life by sacrificing his own.
A physical pain takes over Jack when he senses the loss of his brother, who is really the only person he’s ever had. He is unable to breathe for a full minute before he goes after Ultron personally and manages to destroy him.
David, a version of technology that had been destroyed by Ultron and recovered, saves Jack’s life despite Jack walking back into the collapsing city to sit by his brother’s body.
Jack is invited to train with the avengers after this, despite the overwhelming grief and Davey grows closer and closer to him as he is learning how to be human and Jack is relearning how to live without a psychic connection with his brother.
Before long, Jack and David fall for each other and begin to live a life together, desperate to be a happy, normal couple, but as the fate of the world is threatened, are forced to come back and fight with the avengers.
However, Jack discovers that David’s soul is made of the very same stone that created Race’s powers and their psychic link and it is a stone that the world’s attacker is after.
Jack tries to remove us peacefully without hurting David, but as they run out of time, David assures him that he must take it and destroy it, which would surely kill him. After delaying as much as he could, Jack is forced to take the stone and crush it before the alien creature can get ahold of it. However, the time stone allows the alien to rewind time, kill David in front of Jack again, forcing Jack to watch his pain as he takes the stone and wins anyway.
Jack can only scream and hold the body of his love before he falls victim to The Blip and fades away to dust.
When Jack is brought back, Denton takes him in, knowing the kid had lost everything he’d ever had and known.
Then, one day, Jack wakes up in a life he’d always dreamed of, and can’t remember anything before. He is happily married with his husband, Davey and as far as he knows, that’s how it’s always been.
Jack had unknowingly released chaos magic and has painfully forced an entire society into playing roles in a real life sitcom. He tries to allow himself to be happy despite knowing that something is wrong. However, he is aware of his and his husband’s power.
After simply talking about having kids, Jack ends up pregnant, which is a complete shock to him, but doesn’t seem to surprise anyone else, other than David, as Jack shouldn’t be able to get pregnant. Yet after only a few days, he becomes fully pregnant, he gives birth to two identical twins, Michael and Isaac with the help of a neighbor named Charlie who walks with a limp and a cane. After delivering the babies, Charlie seems dazed and confused and asks Jack about Race dying at Ultron’s hand and David being killed in front of him twice, but to protect his new life, Jack telekinetically casts Charlie out of his carefully created world which Jack can recall only for a moment is the result of his own magical enslavement of the town.
After repairing his perfect home, Jack holds his sons and waits for David to come home. They only get to revel in the sight of their children for a short while before the children begin to rapidly age themselves up. Jack is amazed by this as Mike is revealed to have magic very similar to his own and Ike is a speedster just like Race. But as time continues and SWORD continues to try and disrupt Jack’s crafted reality, Jack exits his world to confront them, telling them that if they threaten his perfect world again, they will be sorry. Though Jack still isn’t aware of exactly how he created this world, he knows that everyone he needs is there and he won’t let anyone get in the way of that again.
He goes back home only to find David distraught as his husband has accidentally freed someone from Jack’s control and found that Jac is causing them immense pain. Jack starts explaining that he feels that same pain everyday and this is the only cure for that. Still David insists he stop, though he does tell Jack he loves him and he knows it will be hard.
Almost considering letting go, Jack is interrupted by a knock at the door, opening it to find none other than his baby brother waiting for him outside the door, looking happy and healthy and safe and Jack knows he can’t let that go.
Jack confides in Race, telling him he has no idea what he’s done. He can’t remember anything other than being alone, hurting and angry and all of the sudden, he was here where everyone he ever loved was.
Race comforts him, telling him that maybe it was a second chance.
But Jack can feel that something is wrong as David escapes the town to try and get help for the people, only resulting in starting to die. So Jack, feeling this, expands the boundaries of the town, retrapping Charlie and also getting Albert and JoJo.
Jack starts to lose control of the reality he created and Charlie tries to talk him down but Pulitzer, Jack’s next door neighbor who’d been his friend since beginning, takes him to his house where he reveals that he’s taken Mike and Ike and forces Jack to relive the moment where he took control of the town. The pain of reliving coming back and having no one brings Jack to his knees and he’s unable to lash out as Pulitzer reveals that Jack is the legendary Scarlet Witch, a reincarnation of a Witch that has been around since the beginning of time.
But as Pulitzer tells Jack he’s going to get rid of the kids because they’re not real, Jack fights back, feeling deep down that in some universe, those were his children.
While fighting, Pulitzer frees the town from Jack's hold, revealing to him that he’d accidentally trapped them inside their own grief and nightmares that they relived over and over again while playing their parts in his perfect world. Jack is horrified by this and loses control of his power again, nearly choking all the residents to death. He manages to stop himself and restore the town, letting the people go, but Davey and Race and Mike and Ike begin to disappear before his eyes. So he puts his hex back up in a desperate attempt to save his family.
As SWORD is able to rush into the town, Jack is able to take down Pulitzer by trapping him in his persona that he took in Jack’s dream. Charlie is able to talk Jack down and Jack is forced to say goodbye to his husband, brother and sons and promises Charlie to understand his powers.
Jack is distraught and seeks out the Darkhold that he begins to study.
However he begins to hear the screams of his two boys, Race and David and knows he can’t live without them…

brought you up in therapy
Anon asked that I replace Nat with Wanda after learning I don't write for Natasha!
Wanda Maximoff x fem!reader
Posted June 6th, 2022 (sry for the wait)
Anonymous asked:
For requests could u do 35 with Natasha and Fem!reader who goes to therapy and it’s like a slow burn and readers like “My therapist warned me about people like you.” And Natasha’s like “?” And readers like “People who are easy to fall in love with” cause readers been talking about her crush (Natasha) but as like her best friend and her therapist jokingly says like “careful there you might fall in love” and they have a whole convo. If you do this fluffy ending would be appreciated…. :)
35
“My therapist warned me about people like you.”
By write it, motherfuckers
note from xe: slow burns aren't usually my specialty but I tried for you, my love! I hope you enjoy <3
mândră is Romanian for (beauty, sweetheart)
masterlist
word count: 1k
Tumblr media
“Wanda? You mention Wanda a lot, tell me about her.”
“Well, she’s my best friend,”
“How’d you two meet?” 
“We met during Strucker’s experiments back in 2014, but we weren’t properly introduced until Ultron,” 
“Tell me about that time,”
“With Wanda? Or with Ultron?”
“With Wanda, but if you feel ready to talk about the time with Ultron then-”
“No! No, I’ll talk about Wanda.”
The woman in the seat across from Y/n nodded in response, a few strands of her gray hair falling from behind her ear as she wrote something down in her notebook before giving her attention back to Y/n.
“So, what was meeting her like?”
“It was a little scary at first, Wanda and I have very similar abilities, it almost felt like Ultron wanted to pin us against each other but after the three of us teamed up with the avengers-”
“I’m sorry, did you say the three of you?”
“Yes, me, Wanda, and her twin brother Pietro, when we teamed up with the avengers it was an easy team-up. We were able to bond over it.”
“And the feelings you explained to me from that time? All that loneliness?”
“Wanda helped with that. When I was with her I wasn’t alone anymore because she understood it, In every way everyone else couldn’t”
“How is your relationship with Wanda now?”
“Well, after her brother- after Pietro died she kind of shut everyone out. Including me, it wasn’t until the Avengers broke up that we got closer. I didn’t want to be alone in a foreign country and Wanda was the only one I truly felt comfortable with at the time, so I asked her to come with me.”
“And this was in?”
“2016 Through 2018, we lived together for 2 years until Thanos tried to snap half the world away”
“What was it like living together for those two years?”
“Well, nothing incredibly traumatic happened,” Y/n laughed at her own words before continuing.
“It was fine, it was normal, we spent the first couple months in London while Steve Rogers found us a safer, more stable location. Then we spent the remaining time in Scotland. It was awkward, but Wanda gave in first; she opened up to me one night, and I opened up to her. After that we kinda became inseparable”
Y/n spent the remaining 24 minutes of that session with Dr. Quinn talking about Wanda and their time in hiding. Nearing the end Dr. Quinn made a comment that had been stuck in Y/n’s head since she made it back to her shared apartment.
“Careful there, you might fall in love”
The statement was a harmless joke really, one that they both laughed at as Dr. Quinn walked Y/n out of her office.
But as the hours passed, the comment hadn’t left Y/n’s mind. Even now as she sat at her kitchen table with her roommate, Yelena Belova, and their two close friends Wanda Maximoff and Kate Bishop, eating dinner from their favorite restaurant.
“Did you guys know about Clint’s acid arrows? I mean seriously, Acid???” Kate questioned as she looked around the table. 
“Saw him use it once,” Wanda responded, causing Yelena to laugh at the mixed look of horror and amazement that Kate had.
“Acid?”
Y/n let out a short laugh, listening to Kate’s bewilderment and Yelena’s amusement.
“Hey, what’s up with you? You’ve picked at your food all night, mândră” Wanda looked at Y/n as she spoke, giving the girl her full attention.
“I’m okay, I had therapy today, you guys know how I get,” Y/n explained, smiling at the redhead.
“Oh, did something happen today? Do you need to find a new therapist? It’s only been what like 4 sessions? We have time to find a new one” Kate rambled, her hand eagerly grabbing Y/n’s in support.
“No! No, I like my therapist, Dr. Quinn is great! Really! Don’t worry about me, Kate, I’m ok. I just always end up leaving with a lot more questions,” Y/n laughed softly, reassuring the three girls who all smiled in response.
As the four girls began to clean up the not-so-big coffee table Y/n wasted no time in taking as many boxes as possible to the kitchen.
Wanda followed closely behind, setting some leftovers on the counter as Y/n threw away any trash that remained in the small kitchen.
“Hey, you’re sure you’re okay?” Wanda asked, turning to look at Y/n.
“I am! I just had a few… uh, realizations? I guess? I’m not completely sure that would be the right phrase,” Y/n responded, mindlessly putting dishes in the sink.
“Mândră?” 
“Yes, Wanda?”
“Those are clean dishes, Dear,”
“Oh,”
“Come sit down, tell me, what’s on your mind, Y/n?” Wanda asked, leading Y/n to the kitchen table.
“Just a discussion between Dr. Quinn and I had today. About you.”
“About me?” 
“Yeah, I brought you today and we talked about you and how we met and some other things. My therapist warned me about people like you,” Y/n said, smiling at Wanda.
“People like me, huh?” Wanda smiled back, leaning on her own hand.
“People that are easy to fall in love with,” Y/n’s voice was a lot quieter than she had initially intended when she began speaking to Wanda but Wanda could still hear her. She always could, even if her voice is just barely above a whisper.
It’s one of the things that Y/n liked about her, the fact that Y/n didn’t have to alter the sound of her voice for Wanda to understand the words she so carefully spoke.
“You’re in love with me?”
“Yeah, I think I am,”
“I’m in love with you,” Wanda responded, sitting up and putting her hand on top of Y/n’s.
The special moment between the two was interrupted by an excited squeal from no other than the darling Kate Bishop.
“Ah! You ruined the moment!” Yelena said, angrily hitting Kate’s arm.
“Ow!”
“Have you two been listening to us the whole time?” Y/n’s question was answered by two eager nods.
“We’ve only been waiting half a year for this moment,” Yelena stated, making it Kate’s turn to hit Yelena in the arm.
“Ow!!! Copycat,”
“Anyway!! We’ll leave you to it then, go on, have your moment!” Kate enthusiastically said, grabbing Yelena by the shoulders and leading her out of the kitchen.
“Half a year?” Y/n looked at Wanda.
“It’s most definitely been longer than that.”

I think if you drew Klaue I would explode. No pressure, of course! There are so many movies, though I won't admit how many times I've watched just his scene in Age of Ultron and the first half of Black Panther. 😂
And seconding anon, I think about that Alfred art frequently - your style is incredible, and you captured him so beautifully. 😍
Thank you for pointing out which parts to watch - by now all these movies mashed into something incomprehensible in my head!
I don't understand Klaue's design downgrade though. He also changed as a character, in Black Panther he is always yelling and acting like a clown, i wouldn't recognize him as a sneaky dealer who manipulated Wanda with cuttlefish idea. One could argue that losing an arm and instantly becoming a billionare can change personality, but what is this then
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Marvel's usual bullshit. The suit looks nice, but I'm definitely not drawing that ugly-ass prosthetic arm😄

Hi I was wondering could you do one for the moon boys.
Fem reader is from another universe as spider woman. The comic verse in which a war started by Ultron (what if) had nearly wiped out the entire planet. She and the Moon Knight from her planet were lovers. She learned the ancient magic from Stephen and the books, she isnt as strong but she still trains. The war lasted years, what devasted her was when Moon Knight was taken and tortured alive due to his regenerative abilities that Konshu gave Marc peace after being stuck for years. In the end asked to be his Avatar until the end.
When the war ended because the watcher helped, he had sent her to this universe (MCU) where she had to learn to live again.
It was Jake Lockley who first helped her under the order of the Moon God. Before he began to help her on his own accord. She was traumatized. It isn't until a year later does she begin to be a hero again helping Jake and being Spider Woman again.
As time passed she meets Marc after he had left his wife and they had become close friends. She confided in him the horrors of her past, often she felt like an intruder. Often shed mention the differences in their worlds.
After the death of their mother did she accidentally meet Steven. Not wanting to lie she told him the truth of her identity and other universe saying they were friends in her world before it was destroyed. She was open about holding more secrets she wasn't aloud to tell. She fell in love all over again. He wasn't her Moon Knight, he was his own being a quirky one at that.
After the events of the egyptian ammit, (Y/N) confess her feelings as she will be going to New York to help Peter Parker with his loneliness.
Wether or not they end up together or not is up to you. (Also, the (y/n) from this world had died the night she was supposed to get her powers.)
(Y/N) is a tiny bit jealous of the badass that is Layla. The things she heard about her from him wow. That and she feels like an outsider.
First of all, thank you anon for sending this to me. I was so excited when I saw it. This is my first ever request so I really hope you like it. It will be in multiple parts (6 or 7 perhaps?) I actually finished writing this the day after you sent the request, but I wanted to write some more and then edit it before I put it out. I am really excited about this because it is like putting a puzzle together and I fucking love puzzles. Please, please let me know how you like it. Thank you. <3
Life As You Knew It
Pairs: Marc Spector x Fem!Reader, Steven Grant x Fem!Reader, Jake Lockley x Fem!Reader,
Words: 5667
Summary: Being Spider-Woman was fun. Then you ran into a white-clad superhero and then your life changed.
Warnings: Mentions of blood, dying, main character death (But multiverse so), angst? trauma. POV switches all over the place because I think it helps tell the story. Sexual references but no smut. Not an accurate representation of DID, basing it off the show's depiction.
Notes: Female reader, as per Anon's request, Spider-Woman!Reader. This chapter takes place in the 'What If' Ultron Won verse. Other Chapters will take place in the MCU. As per warnings, POV switches all over the place. Hopefully, they aren't too confusing. Things shown like this ‘Words. Word word.’ are meant to be the boys talking to each other internally.
Life As You Know It - Part 1* - Part 2 - Part 3  - Part 4 - Part 5
You had met Marc by accident, well technically you met Moon Knight by accident. You had been swinging while doing some patrols when you came across a guy in a bright white cape beating the shit out of people. Not in your city. So you dropped, kicking the caped man in the back. The man was pushed forward, and he growled at you. When the caped man spun around, he went to punch you and you sighed, shooting a web at him quickly to attach him to the wall, "Did anyone ever tell you it's not nice to hit a girl?" The man hissed and fought against the webs, so you just shot another one at him to secure him in place.
You bent down and looked at the beaten man on the ground. Even though their faces were horribly disfigured, you recognize them by a tattoo on their necks. Part of a New York gang, and not one of the nicer ones. One of the gangs that did some really fucked up shit. So you webbed them to the ground just in case they had enough energy to run. You look at the man you webbed to the wall who is still struggling in your web. You finally got a better look at his costume. Mostly white, reflective, with crescent moons scattered over it. You tilt your head, "Not very sneaky to be wearing all white. Should go for something like this." You motioned down to your outfit, various shades of purple with a hint of pink and blue. You had based it on the Brazilian pinkbloom tarantula. 
The man fought and growled, "I didn't pick the armor." You hum softly, "You have an outfit designer or something? Are you famous? Should I know you?" The man's white glowing eyes looked at you, "You talk too much." You huff and cross your arms, "Wow. Rude. Well, then it takes five hours for my webs to stop working. So if you're gonna be like that, I will just call the police to pick up these idiots and you can sort it out yourself." The man froze, "Five hours?" You nod very matter-of-factly. He sighs, exhausted and annoyed, "I am Moon Knight." You nod slowly, "That's not bad, I'm just Spider-Woman… Pretty on the nose, right?" You touch your masked nose and laugh. And you swear you saw his completely white eyes roll. You move over to Moon Knight and start removing the webs with your fingers. He watches you, "How did you do that?" You chuckle, "Spiders don't stick to their webs." You ball up the webs and throw them into a nearby trash can, making it in without looking. 
Moon Knight watches you and then you get a call in from your earpiece, a suspected break-in a few blocks away. You turn your back towards the man. He takes this chance to try to hit you. Your spider-sense warns you, though, so you whip around and grab his balled-up fist, stopping it right in place. You glare at him as Moon Knight looks at you in shock. You shake your hand, "I tried to be nice." You grasp his fist tighter and then easily flip him over your head, slamming him back onto the ground. You hear him audibly groan. Your earpiece notifies you again and you hiss, "Shit." You leave Moon Knight on the ground and jump onto the wall, walking up it sideways as you call over your shoulder, "Bye Moon Dude."
  Marc lay on his back, staring at you as you walked away. The two other men in his head wouldn't shut up about you. Steven thought you were hilarious, and he wanted to talk to you. Jake was obsessed with how strong you were and the way the purple fabric of your suit clung to your ass and breasts. Marc just groaned and just laid there, waiting for the suit to heal him while he tried to figure out why his own thoughts wouldn't stop going back to you.
After that, you two kept running into each other over and over. Marc wanted to be annoyed about it. He really did. But he couldn't be annoyed at you. You were talkative and funny and extremely helpful. Khonshu even mentioned on multiple occasions that maybe he should have asked you to be his avatar instead. Your meetings all came to a peek one night when Marc found himself outnumbered. He was about to let Jake out.
You dropped out of nowhere and webbed up all the criminals so they were more manageable. Graceful was the only way Marc could describe you. Moves all seemed to flow together, with no jumbling, no slip-ups. You looked down at Marc, "You alright friend?" He nodded, and you held a hand out for him. He took it and you lifted him to his feet like he weighs nothing. Marc saw Khonshu appear and watched him. You, however, were staring and the giant bird as well. Khonshu tilted his head at you, "You can sense me… How curious." You laugh as you stare at him, "Look at the giant chicken." Marc stops, shocked, "You can actually see him?" You look back at Marc and nod, "Yeah, he's got moons on him like you do. He the one who made you look like a walking target?" Marc chuckles and nods. 
Khonshu growls at you, a monstrous sound, "Be mindful puny bug. I am the god of the moon." You tilt your head, "I'm not a bug? Shouldn't a god know that?" Khonshu slams his scepter down on the ground, "All humans are bugs to the likes of me." You laugh, webbing yourself up to stand, perfectly balanced on the top of his scepter, "Actually, you're wrong." Khonshu tries to shake you off his staff, but your spider grip keeps you right in place. You laugh again, "I'm an arachnid, you silly skeletal chicken. Arachnids are not insects and thus are not bugs."
  Khonshu was rather annoyed with you at this point, tempted to kill you, but he knew he couldn't. You have done no wrong. You have even protected his avatar on multiple occasions. So he conceded, "Alright little arachnid, away with you." You giggle and do a backflip off his scepter, landing perfectly on your feet, "And who says you can't teach an old god new tricks?"
  Marc can't stop himself from laughing at this, much to Khonshu's annoyance. Steven wanted out. He wanted to laugh and joke with you, so he put himself into a nearby reflective street sign to try to convince Marc to switch, ‘Marc, please. I think it's time. We can even show her Jake too, so it's all out in the open.’ When Marc looked to where Steven stood, he shook his head. But before he could respond to Steven, he noticed you. The eyes on your suit were trained on where Steven's reflection was at. The white fabric of your eyes kept twitching, and you even went to rub them out with your hands. 
Marc stopped, "What's wrong?" You laugh it off, waving him off, "It's nothing. Sometimes I see weird things. Think it's just my spider-sense acting up." You kept rubbing your eyes, unable to get Steven's reflection out of your head. So despite what Marc had said moments ago, he decided to reveal it to you, "He is there. You're not seeing things." You look at Marc now, eyes wide and confused, "What? But that man is different from you. He looks like you, sure… But he isn't you. I have seen him before sometimes when we are fighting… And another one… But it's just because I'm tired. I mean, their mouths move, but I can't hear them. So it's just in my head." You rub your eyes again. 
Marc takes a step toward you, "He is real. That's Steven, and the other one you're referring to is Jake." You stop rubbing your eyes and look at him, "Then who are you?" And Marc conceded, "I am Marc Spector." You gasp, realizing that he just gave away his secret identity. Marc knew what he was doing, but it was a risk he was willing to take. Marc didn't expect you to respond the way you did. You rip off your mask, sticking it to your hip so you don't lose it. Revealing your face to him, something Marc hadn't done for you. 
Marc stared at your beautiful face, hair all tangled from being trapped in a mask for hours. Your features were better than he had imagined them. Steven and Jake had to agree as well. You stepped closer to them, "So… You have two other people living inside you." Marc nods slowly, unsure of your reaction. You then break out into the most amazing smile he has ever seen, "You're a three for one special? How exciting!" You looked genuinely excited, not scared of Marc or mad at him. You didn't even look at him like he was broken, you looked at him like he was special, unique in your eyes. Marc's heart started thudding in his chest, and before he could do something he would regret, he let Steven take over.
Steven popped out, the Moon Knight outfit being switched out for his Mr. Knight suit. Your eyes got wider, "You all have different suits?" You practically squealed. Steven got all doe-eyed and blushy under his mask, "Hiya." He waved shyly at you. He had been listening to your fun banter for months, thinking of comebacks or other funny things to add, but now he was tongue-tied. You clapped your hands, "You have different suits, so do you have different superhero names?" Steven gave a small nod, "Sortof. I'm Mr. Knight. Marc and Jake are Moon Knight." You tapped a finger on your chin, "We will have to fix that. What's Jake's costume look like?" Steven willingly gave up control to Jake, knowing deep down he would have more time with you later.
Jake came out, Mr. Knight's suit being switched out for his. It was similar to Marc's, but it had more black on his body, better for blending into the shadows. Jake put his hands out to the side, showing himself off. You hum sweetly, "Moon Pie?" Jake groans loudly, "Like the food? No." You huff and cross your arms, going back to thinking. You pace back and forth and Jake can't help but stare at your ass in your suit. You try out another, "Mr. Moon?" Before Jake can respond, you shake your head, "Nope… Not that one." You pace again and then exclaim, "Moon Boss? That's it. That's my final offer." Jake lets a deep laugh come out of his chest, "Alright. I'll take that one. Daddy Long Legs." Jake teases you. You try to look mad, but you can't hold it. You burst out laughing happily, crinkling your eyes in such an exquisite fashion, "I love it." Jake smirks under his mask, "Alright legs, Marc wants back out now." You smile and wave at Jake as he gives the body back to Marc.
Marc comes back out, seeing you still smiling at him. Your smile falters a bit, "Does it hurt?" Marc shakes his head, "Not usually. It used to before we got along. Sometimes still does if it's forced." You nod softly, "Sorry if I… You know… Caused them to come out and hurt you." You look a bit nervous. Your smiley, radiant look from earlier has gone, and Marc wants it back. So he shakes his head again, "Not at all. They wanted to meet you for a long time. So we all agreed on the switch." You nod slowly and then smile again, "Steven and Jake wanted to meet me?" You pointed at yourself, completely baffled that anyone would want to meet you. Marc nods eagerly, "Yeah, they wouldn't shut up about you since the first time we met. I couldn't stop thinking about you, either." Marc stops, realizing what he just admitted. 
Marc was never this open. Why was he being this open with you right now? You chuckle, "Liked it when I laid you out then? You into that kind of thing?" You tease him, smiling slyly. And Marc does something surprising, even to himself. He wills his mask down, revealing his face to you, "Maybe a little." He teases back. You stop, mouth opens slightly as you stare at his face. And then the words fall from your lips, "God, you're fucking hot." And just like that, Marc finds himself pushing you back against a wall, kissing you hard and rough. You kiss him back, grabbing at his suit. You pull away and Marc wonders if maybe he was moving too fast. For the first time in a long time, Marc second-guessed himself. Then he saw your cocky smile, "My name is, [Y/N]." Then Marc sees it, the playful twinkle in your lust-filled eyes as you add, "Wanted you to know so you can moan it out for me in a few minutes." And with that, he presses his body back against you. Your lives become connected from that night on.
The four of you were happy for years. Living life together was amazing. You dated like a non-superhero couple. Marc took you out on dates often, anywhere he could. Dinner, dancing, and movies. Steven always took you to museums which you love. You both made jokes about the displays and he would tell you everything he knew about the items and history. Jake liked just walking around town with you, stumbling onto someplace fun like a bar or a carnival. After officially dating for a year or so, you even modified your suit. Putting three pearl white crescent moons along your collar, one for each of them. You did also add a white hood that matched Moon Knight's, but you pretended it was something you had been thinking about before you met them. It was a lie. They didn't believe you, but they still loved it. It was happy, it was fun. You all fought crime together. You helped them protect the travels of the night. You even think Khonshu started taking a liking to you. It was your version of perfection. Your version of a happy life.
That was until the day everything went downhill. You were laying back on the couch, your legs draped over Marc's lap. He was playfully running his fingers up and down your thighs, making you giggle. And then you felt it. The hairs on the back of your neck stood up almost painfully. You jumped off the couch, "Summon the suit." You looked around, not sure what was wrong, but your instincts were ablaze, burning you into a hyper-focused state. Marc looked a bit confused, but he listened to you, the suit wrapping around him. Covering him in healing armor. You kept looking around, "Call Khonshu… Something is very wrong." Marc nodded and called to the god. You grabbed your suit and started putting it on. Khonshu appeared, "Something is amiss with this world." His tone was low and ominous. It made you feel worse. 
You looked up at the god, "Protect us, please. I don't know what's happening." You weren't normally so formal with the god. Luckily, Khonshu put a protective bubble over you both. You wrapped your arms around your head and closed your eyes tight. Tring to focus, trying to figure out what is going on. Your spider-sense isn't always as helpful as it sounded. It just told you something was about to happen but didn't always tell you what the thing was. Marc came up behind you and wrapped his arms around you in an attempt to comfort you. You sank into him, still scrambling to find out what was wrong. Then it hit you, "Oh no." And with that, an explosion went off. All the missiles around the world seemed to go off all at once. Khonshu's bubble kept you and your boys safe, but when the explosions stopped. You and Marc were left standing in a crater of what used to be your apartment.
You all had known about the Avengers. Hell, you were friends with a fair amount of them. Tony even gave you some new toys to fight crime with when he invented them. But you and the Moon Boys never bothered with them because they had everything under control. Keyword, HAD. They were dead, Ultron had taken over. Bombed the world and left whatever survivors scrambling to try to fix things. Khonshu gave you, Marc, Steven, and Jake the command of taking care of Ultron, and the four of you eagerly accepted, ready to fix this mess.
Years passed as you ran and fought and clawed for something, anything, that would correct the path that this world was put on. But nothing, all leads turned to dead ends. Most hints of human life, gone. You had run into Nat and Clint at one point, but being in a group that large made you too big of a target for the bots, so you stayed away from each other mostly.
Jake called out to you, "Hey legs, you alright?" You panted loudly and gave him a nod. You had both been running for hours. After the missiles, there weren't a lot of buildings for you to web to and swing from, and then, after years, the ones that were still partially standing started to crumble from the elements. The Ultron-bots were relentless. Jake looked at you, knowing you were lying. He expanded his cape and started to fly. You knew what he was doing. You both had done it before in fights. You shot a web up at Jake and it didn't stick like it normally did. He grabbed the strand, wrapping it around his hand tightly. And with that, Jake flew off, carrying you away from the evil robots for the moment. You caught your breath while he carried you away, "Thanks, Boss." Jake let out a soft chuckle, "Any time, legs." Flying you both off.
Jake landed you both somewhere safe for now. You immediately laid down on the dusty concrete. You would feel Jake's eyes on you. You looked at him and gave him a thumbs-up before your hand thumped onto the ground. You heard Jake leave the room. He tried to get out of your earshot but with super senses that would never happen.
  Jake cleaned off the reflective surfaces he could find. Wanting to have a meeting with Marc and Steven. The two other men appeared and Jake sighed, "We can't keep going like this… She is…" Jake stops, not wanting to say the rest out loud. Steven nods slowly, 'She is exhausted. I can't be the only one who has noticed she is slowing down.' Marc sighs, 'Well, no food and water will do that to a person. She can't keep up.' Jake nods along with the other two, "Her webs are failing." Jake shows his two reflections the web you shot earlier, easily falling out of his hand. Not a single strand of it stuck to him, "This was only maybe an hour ago." Both reflections freeze, watching as your once supernaturally strong web flutters to the ground. Marc put his head in his hand. Steven speaks up, 'If we can get her enough food and water that should help right? Yeah.' He answered his own question before mumbling, 'She will be good as new… She has to be…' 
All three men were in a state of extreme panicking. The only difference was how they showed it. Steven wrung his hands in his reflection, going over every possible way to make you better. Marc was bordering on a panic attack, blaming himself even though there was literally no way this was even remotely his fault. Jake wanted to fight something, fight anything, so he punched the already crumbling wall. He froze when he heard your voice, "Did anyone ever tell you it's rude to talk about people behind their back?" You gave a weak laugh, still their silly talkative mess of a woman, even with the world burning around you. Jake had to give up control and Marc wasn't ready to front either, so it fell to Steven.
Steven came out. Moon Boss's, as you still lovingly called him, suit changing into Mr. Knight's. You smiled sweetly at him, "What's wrong?" None of the four of you bothered with masks anymore. What was the point when everyone was dead? Steven could see the exhaustion on your face, the way your eyes had ever-darkening circles under them, your cheeks sinking in. But you still smiled. Smiled for them. Steven shook his head, "Nothing love… Nothing at all." He lied. He was a terrible liar. Why had Jake and Marc made him front for this? You chuckled and shook your head, "You're a poor liar, Grant." Steven nods all too quickly. You gently grab his hand, "Dance with me."
Steven took your hands in his, "Marc and Jake are much better dancers than I am." You lean up and kiss him. Steven kissed you back. His kisses were always soft, but they were even softer this time because he was afraid of hurting you. You swayed with him, "I want to dance with you right now." Steven swayed with you, watching your beautiful face. He loved you, Marc loved you, Jake loved you. The entire system loved you so much. He wanted to tell you, wanted to say it out loud again, like all of them had done hundreds of times. But before he could, your body tensed, and the hair on the back of your neck stood up. Then Steven saw something new that never happened when your spider-sense kicked in before your nose started to bleed. 
  You looked around, trying to figure out what your sense was telling you. But it was harder to understand than ever before. Being hungry, dehydrated, and tired made it so much harder to follow. You didn't care about the blood running down your face, but Steven did. He tried to brush it away. It didn't stop. Steven was so distracted by you that he didn't notice when a portal opened behind him. Ultron stepped out and snatched him, "I would like to summon your god." Ultron glares down at Steven. You went to fight the giant metal man, but he had all the Infinity Stones now. You were no match even at your strongest and you were nowhere near your strongest. 
Ultron grabbed you with the power of one stone, flinging you back against the wall. You saw as Marc quickly came to the front, suit changing to his Moon Knight one, "Leave her out of this. Take me and let her live." Ultron scoffed, "Me killing her now would have been a mercy. She will rot away soon." Ultron stepped back through the portal he created. You summoned all your remaining strength and shot a web out to Marc, trying to grab him back. Your web, however, fell flat, not even making it to him, and then it blew away, not sticking to anything. You started to cry desperately and in pain. Ultron laughed at your struggle, "How pathetic." Marc met your eyes, "It's okay. We will be okay, [Y/N]" And with that, Ultron closed the portal.
You sat there in a heap, weeping until your tears turned to blood. No more water left in your body to cry. You kept crying, unable to stop yourself and unable to do anything else with how weak you were. Until you eventually collapsed on the floor, falling unconscious.
When you woke up, you only felt a fraction better. You blinked the blood out of your eyes and looked around. Khonshu sat over to the side, waiting for you to awaken. You jumped up, falling again because you still didn't have any of your strength back. Khonshu watched you, "Careful little arachnid. My healing may have helped you not die, but I can not do much else when you are not my Avatar." You growl and scream, "Then make me your fucking avatar… I have to save them." Khonshu shook his head, "That will kill them. My suit is the only thing keeping them alive right now." You stand up on unstable legs, "Then take me to them. Let me kill that metal bastard." Your body is shaky, but you didn't care. You wanted them back. 
Khonshu shook his head at you again, "Then you would die, little spider. And that would kill them in return." You cry again, sadness and anger mixing in your blood, "Then what the fuck is the point of being a god?" You spat out at him through tears. Khonshu stood up, towering over you, "Something much bigger than me is pulling the strings." You glare up at him, "Then why revive me at all… What is the point if I can't do anything to stop this?" Khonshu holds out his hand for you, "There is still one last hope, one last chance." You reluctantly take his hand. And with that, your world spins and swirls around you. When it stops, you end up falling to the ground, unable to hold yourself up. Khonshu points with his scepter, "He can offer you a chance." 
You wipe your face, and you follow to where he pointed, seeing a man in a cloak. Dr. Strange, but he was long dead in this world. Khonshu looks down at you yet again, "He is not of your world. But he may be able to help. To teach you something." You nod, struggling to get back on your feet. Khonshu surprisingly helps you up, "Keep in mind, though, little arachnid. This world is already quite lost. If you do not succeed, it is not your fault." You scoff at that and then Khonshu disappears. 
You trudge up to Dr. Strange when he turns around he looks different, almost evil. He looks you up and down, "You're new." You nod softly, "You're not from this world, right? But if you're anything like the Strange of this world. You know magic. I need you to teach me." Dr. Strange looks you over, the shadows of monsters dancing behind him, "Alright. We have little time. The Watcher is already assembling people to try and fix this world." You didn't care who The Watcher was at the moment or who he was assembling. You only cared about the loves of your life and getting them back, because lord knows what Ultron was doing to them.
Dr. Strange taught you, in the limited time he had. You weren't amazing at it, but as Strange put it, "You're learning quickly for someone who is dying." And you were dying, slowly. The exhaustion, starvation, dehydration, and heartbreak were all coming down around you. More often than not, you could open a portal with a sling ring but couldn't keep it open because you started coughing up blood. Dr. Strange's snake-like eyes took pity on you, but you made him keep teaching you so you could learn as much as possible. You had to get your boys back. You had to.
When The Watcher had placed everyone here for the saving the world plan, you took your leave to use this chance to find Marc, Steven, and Jake. You weren't a part of the plan, so you weren't fucking up anything they were trying to do by leaving. Dr. Strange had told you where you needed to go to find them. And as one last favor, Strange opened a portal for you to send you to your Moon Knights. You had a sling ring to get back when you had them.
Stepping into the room, you already smelled blood. Though you weren't sure if it was from the room or yourself. You kept moving, ignoring the ache in your bones and the hairs standing up on the back of your neck. You made your way through slowly, rooms full of discarded robotic puppets Ultron had no use for anymore. You kept pushing yourself. Just a bit further and you could see them again.
When you found the room, your whole body wanted to crumble, you wanted to collapse. Part of you knew what you were about to see and then another part of you didn't want to believe it. It's what your sense was trying to warn you about, but you ignored it. You saw Marc laying motionless in some kind of scientific-looking monstrosity. You inched closer, and the smell of blood became nauseating. Moon Knight's once pearlescent suit was now stained with various shades of red and brown. Blood in various stages of drying. Ultron had tried to extract Khonshu from them. Like the god would have been inside him. You started crying because you knew. 
You knew. But that didn't stop you from grabbing Marc's hand, pulling it to you and feeling it was still warm. That he hadn't been dead long. Maybe they would come back. They still had the suit on, after all, it should heal them. So you did the only thing you wanted to do. You climbed up onto the dissection table and tangled your fingers into their messy curls that were matted with blood. You curled into Marc's body, closing your eyes as you waited. Their blood soaking into your suit, soaking into your skin as you lay there. You stayed there until you felt his body go cold and even then you still refused to move.
At some point, even through your tears, you felt Khonshu appear in the room. You still couldn't bring yourself to move. Khonshu loomed over you, "It was not your fault, little spider." You choke out, "They will come back. They are still wearing your suit. You will heal them as long as they are in the suit." You close your eyes tighter, clinging tighter to Marc. But you feel the wind when Khonshu shakes his head, "This can not be undone… Those stones are too much for even a god to bring someone back from." You refuse to listen, refuse to believe him. He was a god, after all. It shouldn't matter the cause, Khonshu should be able to fix it. 
  Khonshu watched over you for a long time, not sure what would comfort the spider that got herself tangled up in his mission to protect the travelers of the night. He finally spoke, "They fought till the end. They wanted to remain my avatar." He just heard you cry harder. One of his bandaged hands covered you. You flinched away, pulling yourself closer to the corpse of your lover. Khonshu felt it, he felt your pain. Here you were, slowly wasting away, and you didn't care. You loved his three avatars so much you were willing to die right beside them. Khonshu had felt pain before. It wasn't new to him over his thousands of years on this plane. But this kind of pain, this kind of heartbreak, was new to him. The human emotion of it was almost overwhelming for him and yet there you lay, a tiny little human bearing it all by yourself. If this world wasn't so already broken, then he just might have taken advantage of your grief to make you his next avatar. But this world was doomed. Meant to end and Khonshu along with it. Khonshu could do one last thing for you, could pull one last string to give you a chance to start anew. So Khonshu left you be, for now.
Khonshu appeared before The Watcher, "I ask you, move one last soul from this world before it comes to an end." The Watcher looked down at the god, "I have already broken every rule I was meant to follow. You would have me break more?" Khonshu nods, waving his scepter to show a visual of you, "One last rule. Give her a chance in another universe where she could have a life again." The Watcher observed as you sobbed and clung to a man who was long gone. The Watcher sighed, "I will find her a place." Khonshu nods and then disappears, going back to you. He quietly waved his scepter over you, marking you so that the Khonshu in your new world would know that you were worth protecting. Then he plucked you up and sent you to The Watcher with another wave of his cane.
You dropped unexpectedly in front of the large-headed being. You clasp around on the ground for where Marc went. You scream loudly until your throat hurts, "What have you done?" The world looked like a mosaic here, making you dizzy. The Watcher peers down at you, "I am here to give you another chance at life." You growl, slamming your fists on the ground, "I don't want another life. I want my life. My perfect life before Ultron destroyed everything. I want my boyfriend's back." The Watcher nods, "I know… But the best I can do is send you to a universe where you died. Marc, Steven, and Jake are still there, but they don't know who you are. But you will be able to start anew." You collapse in on yourself, "What if I don't want to start 'anew'?" The Watcher shrugs, "I only offer a chance. What you do with it is up to you." And just like that, a door opened itself in front of you. Leading to what looked like an alleyway in New York. You didn't move. You weren't sure you could have even if you wanted to. And you definitely weren't sure you wanted to. But The Watcher had other plans. He pushed you through the door and suddenly you fell into a new universe, covered in your lover's blood and dying. Overwhelmed by everything, you fell unconscious.

A/N: Thanks so much! I'm glad you like these words i spew out anon! And yes of course, a domestic, fluffy and slightly smutty Tangerine x nb!Reader fic it is!
Normal Day
Tags: Tangerine x nb!reader, no use of Y/N, They/Them for Reader, merc!Reader, cursing, not brit picked, fluff and smut, implied smut, domestic fluff, doing everyday things, soft!Tangerine, reference to Avengers Age of Ultron, reference to Pietro from AOU
Tangerine and you finally get a week off together, so you decided to do ‘normal couples stuff’ because despite it all, getting to do things together with Tangerine is the best way to spend a week off.
Tangerine and you rarely ever get a day off in sync. The unfortunate routine was; whenever you had a week between missions, he'd be halfway across the world with his twin in some life-threatening work while you busy yourself in the house, and vice versa. You and him would call, obviously, late at night while it's early in the day for him. He'd tell you the latest gist of what's going on in his mission while you try to fight off the hands of slumber and stay up for your boyfriend. Once, when you were in Borneo for an intel mission, Tangerine called you in the middle of the day, surprising you whilst you were on the runway to get on your helicopter. What amused you was how dedicated he was to calling you at the right time despite having to wake up at 5 AM, and Tangerine is not a morning person; despite his defense.
So yes, a day off together is truly a rare occurrence. 
You and Tangerine are spending the month in your apartment in Queens, running from London's usual rain. You awake slowly, feeling Tangerine's strong arms wrapped around you and his mustaches tickling your nape from where he's snuggling. You chuckle, cherishing the warmth of his body and the rays penetrating the blinds as the sun makes its entrance. Tangerine pulls you closer despite already flushed chest to back with you, and you sigh in content. Your eyes travel to his hands, just below you chest, splayed possesively over your nightshirt. Scars and weak tissues litter his long fingers, his knuckles just healed enough after his last mission, veins slightly prominent on fair skin.
His hands move slightly, now one is balled on the sheets in front of you while the other presses on your stomach. You feel his eyelashes flutter behind you, knowing soon your boyfriend will awake and you'll get to spend the week with him. A week! Not just a day off, a week! God, you're excited. 
Carefully, you bring his free hand to your lips and press on the various scars scattered on it. One kiss, then two, then the ones on the back of his hand, then on his knuckles and following to the tips of his finger, until you feel him humming awake when you kiss his palm, breathing in his scent, trailing down to press your lips against the vein that indicates his consciousness. 
"Mornin' darling," The low vibration of his morning voice is intoxicating. You humm as the hand that you were holding cups your jaw, running calloused fingers softly on your cheek, turning you so you meet blue eyes shattered with gold from the sun. His face is relaxed, cheeks dusted pink highlighting the gleams of healed scars that he usually kept under makeup, a small smile on his lips. His curls are a shade lighter, illuminated by the rays peeking through. Unruly bed hair is what Tangerine calls it, but despite it you're obsessed with how it makes him look. Without his gell, his hair would travel down and cover his ears, then curls adorably on his forehead. Not to mention that's the same hairstyle when he's screaming your name at night.
Truly ethereal.
You blink, focusing wholly on the warmth on your face as he traces circles just near your eye, his fingers tangling your hair. His eyes gazes down to your lips, making you grin, before you push yourself enough to kiss him. He moves to hold your hip, smoothing down the fabric as your hand finds his strong chest, the smallest of hair felt beneath your fingers. His lips sealed over yours, lazy pecks until you slip your tongue into his and he makes a hum of approval. Its warm and soothing, awaking the sensation you and Tangerine shared last night, and you'd love to continue and spend the whole week fucking him but you had other plans, and you needed to get them in motion.
Shifting beneath the comforter, you break the languid kiss and position yourself on top of him, your legs between his while you rest on his chest, getting a good view of a slightly grumpy and aroused Tangerine. 
"Hey," You chuckle, one hand reaches to smoothe a curls away from his eye.
"Hello you," He smiles then raises a questioning brow. You huff, dropping your head to rest on him, his steady heart beat relaxing you.
"I was thinking," You started, Tangerine busy playing with your bed hair. "We can do some…. Everyday things, today,"
He scoffs, making you pick your head up in question. "'Everyday things'?" 
"Yeah, y'know like uh… Clean our office, do the laundry, or go get groceries, we are out of cheese so-"
"So like, do our chores or sumn'?" 
You pouted, making your boyfriend's brows shot up. "No, I mean like… Domestic stuff, the things couples do everyday?"
Suddenly, Tangerines face reddens and he blinks, once, twice, before he stutters. "D-domestic like… normal stuff?"
"Yeah, i think that'd be fun, a little different than our jobs y'know," You smile, bright and wide almost as blinding as the sun outside Tangerine gapes, then slowly the red from his face dissipates into a smirk.
"Well, if you're thingkin' 'bout normal-coupley stuff, let's start here yeah?" His hands are suddenly on your waist, fingers digging at your skin.
"What do–" Then he suddenly grinds between your legs, a low groan punched out of you. You glare at Tangerine, his signature smirk in place and more coy than ever. "Alright, let's do that,"  
If you and Tangerine ended up leaving the bed at 10 instead of 8 then that's no one's fault, you were simply following your boyfriend's wishes. 
After showering together—And spending another hour cleaning each other and sharing kisses—You dressed for the day and began preparing breakfast. While you were busy making the pancake batter, you could hear Tangerine in the bedroom humming to himself, probably picking an intricate top to go with his also intricate trousers. You smile to yourself, knowing despite the day off he'll always dress extra. You picked something to rival him, of course; a sleek white dress shirt and dark gray pants, with the belt that Tangerine got you on a 'impulsive' spending spree.
Finally, when two plates of pancakes are ready and so is Tangerines morning tea, the man himself exits the bedroom, clothes, hair and makeup ready for the day. He takes a seat on the kitchen island next to you and you retire your phone to pay attention to him, whistling when you take in his outfit. Navy waistcoat with matching trousers, a white top with a sheer pattern that ghosts over the color. 
"What gala are we going to, babe?" You snicker, earning a huff from him before he starts eating, and so do you. 
Half an hour spent talking about mundane things around the infosphere. The recent politician who's done something dumb again, the weather, the prediction of the weather, and the small crime that the police have hyperbole enough to make it into the news. You and Tangerine shared a laugh at that last one, knowing most of the shit you both do is worth putting in museums instead of the lowly cops. 
After doing the dishes together, you open your phone to the list about today that you've planned since last night. 
"So, since we're both dressed to go out," Tangerine takes a seat beside you, his arm already resting behind the couch. "I'm thinking we do grocery first, get the stuff we're out," He nodded.
"I've put our shopping list here, is there anything you wanna add?" 
Tangerine reads the screen. "Why's my shampoo there? ain't it still enough for another month?" 
"Well… about that," You avoid your boyfriend's questioning eyes while your face reddens, before he slowly catches up and takes a whiff of your hair, holding you by the shoulders while you giggle and try to pry yourself away.
"You have been usin' it! I knew i smelt something familiar, ya' cheeky bastard," 
"I like it okay! Plus it makes me smell like you…"
"Yeah?" He's smirking again and thank god he's your boyfriend because instead of slapping him you press your lips to his in a short kiss.
"Yes. Problem?" You huff, Tangerine grins.
"Not at all, love," He slides back to you side, squeezing your hip and rests his hand there.
"Alright, next. After we shop, we could stop somewhere near to get lunch," You point back at your loss. "I'm thinking maybe the cafe that opened next door?" 
"Oh yeah! Been eyein' their coffee for days now," You grin, turning back to your phone and scrolling.
"Oh and here!" You pointed. "When we get home, we'll do a cleaning of our office, then spend the rest catching up on our shows,"
"What movie you thinkin' then?" He sleeks back a fallen fringe. You note he's wearing less gel than usual. 
"We can continue our Marvel marathon,"
"Sure, what's the next film after Avengers again?" 
"Age of Ultron, i think," You tried to recall the list, when he suddenly groaned from behind you, making you turn and crunch your brows.
"Oh bollocks, its with the fuckers who's similar to me ain't it?" He huffs. "Lemon bugged me all the time about 'em,"
"Who? Pietro?" 
"Yeah, him!" 
You laugh, careening to the side until you're holding your stomach. Tangerine side eyes you, sharp and annoyed, until you finally stop laughing but still giggles in huffs. He turns his head, looking away from you and you know he's a bit more pissed than usual. So you smile slowly, pulling your boyfriend just enough to press a warm kiss on his cheek and hold his chin to tilt him to meet your eyes.
"Don't worry babe, y'know i only fall for one Tangerine," He sighs, a smile tugging on his lips, then he presses a kiss on your knuckles. 
"Plus, you can go undercover as Aaron Taylor-Johnson if you ever want to," That makes him pout again, pushing your hand away from him and sending you into another fit of laughter. 
And so you and Tangerine spent the day outside.
You both went shopping for the things you've run out of, and picked out the ingredients for future recipes. Tangerine spent the better half of the hour picking through champagne and wine, ensuring to get the best one thay had before he decided; "Let's just go to a wine shop, this place got nothin'." Which made you laugh while he pulled you away from the mediocre drinks.
Finally exiting the shop, you and Tangerine went to the Cafe that you mentioned. Despite them being opened quite recently, the establishment is run by an old married couple. The wife takes care of the orders and cashier while her husband is in the back. While Tangerine placed his, the woman looked at you and said "And what will your friend be having?" 
Which made Tangerine's eye tick and you had a millisecond to hold him back before- "My partner will order for themselves." 
You only huff in amusement as the old lady blinked, before she nodded sheepishly and you placed your order quickly. 
"Quit hissing at old people, dear, she didn't mean it," You had said when you and Tangerine were in the middle of your meal.
"Yeah well if we can learn about their damn repetitive history then they can learn to respect our choices," His eyes are narrowed and burning holes the poor womens back, you had to pry him away when you're done.
Tangerine took a detour to actually purchase good, genuine wine and champagne, and while he was with the worker who was presenting him the sparkling beverages you busy yourself looking around, afraid to touch those on display because despite your combined income from yours and Tangerines work, you're still cautious about these bougie things.
Finally, when you two arrived home, you and Tangerine moved in tandem as you retire the groceries into their places, Tangerine taking care of the expensive drinks while you changed your clothes in the other room. Tangerine joined you shortly after, wrapping his arms from behind you while he buries his face in the side of your neck, taking lungfulls before he suddenly attacked the sensitive skin with a bite. You shrieked, of course, before you swatted him away and pushed his clothes into his hands, making Tangerine chuckle. As you pass the bedroom mirror, there's a prominent red mark from where he bit. It sent a shiver as you pressed it, before you blinked and exited the room.
The 'office' is the safe name for ou and Tangerines house weapons bank. It's located next to your bedroom with a hidden keypad beside the door, hidden behind a wall, and changed every 2 weeks. Cleaning the room just means cleaning the weapons and doing check-ups, making sure the guns are properly cared for and the knives are sharpened. So you and your boyfriend spent an hour and a half making sure all your weapons and ammunition are in place, stocked, and cleaned. When you both finally finished, Tangerine closed the door behind him while you attacked his neck with kisses that made him groan, before you placed your own bite just above the deep scar on his left.
Now, the clock reads 9 PM, leftovers from dinners are stored into the fridge, dishes cleaned, and living room vacuumed. You’re currently in Tangerine's arm as he grumbles throughout Avengers: Age of Ultron. Every minute the ‘Pietro guy’ as he calls him, appears on screen, he would squint and send death glares to the unassuming character until you had to swat at his arm, making him huff before pulling you closer. One of his arms rests behind his head while the other hugs your middle, you sigh in content when he finally quiets down from his complaints and lets you continue the movie in peace. However, it only lasts another 20 minutes before he scoffs again, hearing Pietro’s accent, which made you pout, peering up at him.
“What?” His eyes twitched.
“You have an accent too, dumbass,” You grin, making his eyes widen.
“Are you usin’ my accent against me? Last I remembered you said I sounded ‘hot’,” He exaggerates, making you giggle. “And ‘sexy’, where did that go, hm, love?”
“Sure mr. Oh-So-Sophisticated,” 
“I’ll show you sophisticated-” He says before he attacks your sides with his nimble fingers, burying his face into the crook of your neck. Both his fingers and mustache tickles you, making you squeal. You try to push at his hands and he knows you’re strong enough to flip him over if you want to, but instead you play the role of helpless and laugh while Tangerine keeps up his act. It wasn't until he finally stopped tickling you and your giggles settled down did he hug you again, pull you close and press a kiss to your nose. 
He stares, a soft smile tugging on his lips, your hand reaching to cup his jaw. He turns slightly into your touch, inhales slowly, before his striking blues meets yours.
“I enjoyed today,” He smiles. 
Your eyes widened slightly. “Really?”
“Yeah, this whole- domestic bullshit,” He sighs. “I liked it, we should do this again,”
The moon might be out but your smile brings the sun right back into the apartment, making Tangerine chuckle. “Thank you,” You grin, and kiss his lips when he brings you closer.
“Of course, love,” He breathes into the kiss.

Hi , how are you
I'm new in sam fandom and marvel , I watched civil war and there is something i cant understand , why tony went directly to ask sam about steve in prison and why he asked him if thay feed him or not although they are against eachother ?
I want to know your opinion and if your followers have opinions too
Have a nice day<3
Hi Anon!!! I'm doing good, how are you?
Welcome to the fandom and thank you for spending me this.
I watched Civil War such a long time ago that I'm not sure I remember everything correctly, so I'll let my Tumblatives complete my answer and correct me if necessary.
So Tony went to Sam because he knew Sam knew where Steve was. Tony didn't actually care about Sam or if he was treated badly, he was just trying to manipulate Sam into giving him Steve's location by pretending Steve was in danger and that he was going to help him (maybe his plan was to help Steve, but if it had been his plan all along why not free Sam so they could both help? Or was he planning to help Steve and then get Steve arrested?)
I'm not sure I can answers your question properly because I don't know what was going through Tony mind at the time, I have never understood his actions, in Civil War or even in Age Ultron. One thing Tony has never done was gold himself accountable for his bad actions. So in his mind, it wasn't a problem to go get some information from Sam, while he was in prison, probably being mistreated and Wanda being held in a straightjacket.

Taken Under His Wing
Pairing: Steve Rogers x Teenager!Reader
Word Count: ~1.1k
Warnings: fluff
Request by anon: Platonic (Big bro figure steve x teen reader) In the middle of quarantine everyone is bored or doing their thing like bruce and tomy joining in to help make a vaccine, wanda and vision trying dishes . Little miss y/n thought its a good idea to do cosplay this time its her brother figure Steve she sneakily used his sheild when she finished her cosplay suit inspired by him . Steve was finished doing his workout routine he plans on sketching with y/n only to find shes not there So is his sheild his eyes went wide and ran to her room only to see her posing for a pic and her cosplay she made is seen. Steve is amazed and chill . He and peter showed her comic con a year after she was free from stryker (shes a mutant with fire manipulation) he sneaked behind her and lol got shy" sorry steb had to complete the cosplay 🥹" 
Summary: While stuck in quarantine, everyone does their own thing. Being the youngest Avenger with a power you can't control means you get to stay in a lot. Somehow, you find things to keep you occupied.

Life use to be freeing. You used to be able to go outside and enjoy the breeze on your skin along with millions of other people. Beaches would be filled to the brim with families, couples, and people who wanted to enjoy the warm water. Stores would be packed with people trying to get their groceries before the end of the day. Life used to be whatever you wanted it to be.
That is before COVID-19 hit.
The entire world was on lockdown. People weren't allowed to go to public places without a mask, only a certain amount of people were allowed in stores, a lot of items were suffering from a shortage because of hoarding, and a lot of people were stuck at home with nothing to do. Food delivery services, online stores, and YouTube have become the future for most people.
For you, it was hell. Crime had gone down significantly since people were scared to go outside for fear the virus would get them. There was no need for the Avengers to save people as often as you did before the virus.
Most of the Avengers all in one place with nothing to do equals a lot of bad things. Tony and Bruce got to work in the labs to see what kinds of things they can create without having another Ultron incident, Wanda and Vision are in their lover phase, Bucky and Sam are seeing how much shit they can stir without getting yelled at by Tony, Natasha and Clint are busy relaxing since they don’t get that luxury often, and Steve is training and working out since he never knows when a mission will come up.
You’re just trying not to get in anyone’s way. You’re the youngest Avenger even with Peter on the team. He’s fifteen and you’re slightly younger at the same age. He’s a few months older than you are, so everyone saw you as the baby of the team, but you don’t feel like it. Alongside Pietro and Wanda, you were part of Stryker’s experiments. You three were the only ones that survived and the only ones that mattered to him.
Wanda got the magic, Pietro got the speed, and you got the fire but unlike the twins, you weren't taught how to use your powers. You always failed every single one of Stryker’s tests and he’d often pick on you. Wanda was the only one who stuck up for you and helped you so when her brother died, you two became even closer.
She’s your best friend and you don’t know what you’d do without her. She’s the reason why you were allowed on the team even though you had no idea what you were doing. Everyone has been so nice toward you since you arrived, especially Steve. He’s the one who you grew attached to outside of Wanda.
You’re not allowed on the big missions but you can go on the small ones with other Avengers. You have to be able to practice your powers in and out of a controlled environment. It’s usually with Wanda so she can use her magic to contain your fire if you ever get out of hand, but you’ve been practicing a lot recently so you feel confident to go on some alone.
You know, if the world ever goes back to normal.
You and Peter often send each other videos of things you two find on TikTok to make each other laugh and one of the things you got really into is Comic-Con. You’ve never been to a convention like that but you’d like to go and dress up and experience your favorite characters with people who love the same characters. They even have an Avengers Con where people can dress up like their favorite superhero and hopefully catch a glimpse of the real hero. Tony, Peter, Thor, Sam, and Clint love going to those places to meet fans and try to fool others by wearing their costumes. The rest tend to stay out of the limelight.
If you were to ever go to one, you’d love to dress up like Captain America after the man who took you under his wing. 
Speaking of the Captain, he’s in the training room focusing on bettering his moves and gaining more muscle like he needs it. He’s been training all week like he has someplace he needs to be, and he’s about to start another set when he remembered what he promised you at the beginning of the week. You love drawing, sketching, and painting and Steve has always wanted to learn how to do that. He said he’d sit down and draw with you if you taught him how to be better at it.
He leaves the gym and showers quickly so he can have the rest of the day with you. He checks the kitchen first and finds Wanda and Vision trying to cook. The kitchen is a mess with food ingredients covering the entire kitchen island.
“We’ll clean this up,” Wanda giggles when she sees Steve’s look.
“Where’s Y/N?”
“Last I saw she was in her room.”
“Thanks.”
He has to pass by his room to get to yours and he pauses by his door when he notices something missing. He sees the spot where he keeps his most prized possession which isn’t there. He continues on his way to your room where he finds you in the corner wearing a homemade Captain America costume. You’re looking at yourself in the mirror with the shield in front of you. You’re kind of struggling to keep it upright since it’s very heavy for someone like you. Steve has all these muscles that can carry things like these, which you’ve always been envious of that.
You look over the details of your costume and notice Steve standing by the bedroom door. You gasp and drop the shield on the ground while trying to figure out an excuse as to why you have it.
“I was just--you weren't using it--I figured--”
“Y/N, calm down,” Steve chuckles.
“I needed it to complete the look.”
“You look good. You did a good job. It looks a lot like mine.” You grin proudly at him and allow him to take his shield back. “I thought we were going to draw.”
“We were and still are. I wanted to try this on. I’ve been working really hard on it. Do you think it’s good enough for Comic-Con?”
“Yeah, but who knows when Comic-Con is going to be available again. What we can do now is draw.”
“Yeah, you’re right. I promise not to burn the canvasses this time like last time.”
“I don’t know, the charred edges made it look better,” Steve smiles.
He wraps his arm around your shoulder and gives you an encouraging smile. You couldn’t ask for a better mentor than him.
