Loki

To say Loki was surprised was an understatement. You had never really shown a lot of skin around him, even before officially becoming a couple—preferring to wear long sleeves and sweaters to combat the New York weather.

It was shortly after you two began dating that the God discovered you had a taste for inking your skin in various artwork. Most of your back was covered, and several smaller tattoos were scattered on your arms and legs. The day he found out was a day the AC in the tower had gone out and it had been a particularly warmer day in the city, so you were dressed in a tank top and pair of shorts.

Loki was rendered speechless when you walked in the room, eyes immediately trailing over the different colors and patterns decorating your skin. The man soon stands and stalks toward you— making you confused by the sudden movement. His hands find your shoulders, thumbs brushing along the raised ink. “What is it?”

He couldn’t help but look over you with curious eyes. “I had no idea you had a taste for this peculiar art form, Y/N.” Catching onto his drift, you laugh lightly. “Well you know they say when you get one and then two, soon you find yourself becoming addicted.”

“It’s magnificent,” he says in wonder. “They’re beautiful.” Needless to say, Loki’s favorite pass time because tracing over your tattoos when you cuddled at his request that you wear tanks and shorts more often. And the God was very looking forward to the day he got to see what else lied underneath where his eyes couldn’t see.

Bucky Barnes

Remember our man's here is from the 40s where people with a lot of tattoos were seen as odd and associated with negative things. The man is in for a culture shock, having to get used to the fact it wasn’t like that for the present time.

When he first meets you in clothing showing off your fully covered arm sleeves, it was when you were both at Avengers tower and Steve had brought Bucky to the gym to train and you just so happened to be there sparing with Natasha. His attention is drawn to you right away, seeing how the colors coating your arms reflected under the light and Bucky is both intrigued and captivated by the artwork. You both were friends and often went on missions together, but you were always covered in your tactical gear.

He’d be lying if he said he didn’t find the tattoos—and you especially, attractive.

He tries to focus on sparring Steve, but he gets distracted from time to time—attention trailing back to where you were. After awhile Natasha and you concluded your session, and he could see you packing up your stuff by your locker. Steve calls for a break around the same time so Bucky takes the opportunity to approach you.

“Oh hey, Bucky?” You greet with a smile. “H-hey.” His voice has a hint of nervousness which makes you raise a brow. “I couldn’t help but notice your sleeves.” His words make you look down at your arms, realizing it was the first time he’s seen them.

“Oh, yeah,” you hummed. “I didn’t realize you hadn’t seen them before.” The conversation soon flows between you two about your tattoos with Bucky asking if they hurt, were you planning to get more, and anything else that relates. When you ask if he ever plans on getting one, the man felt a wave of confidence in him.

“Only if you go with me—I might need someone to hold my hand.” And you do just that, because one week later your first date with the former Winter Soldier happens to take place in a tattoo shop with your hand in his.

Helmut Zemo

You and the Baron were not exactly friends when he discovers the hidden secret adorning your body. It had been when Bucky and Sam recruited you to help them with their little super soldier issue—and you were not looking forward to having to dress in a revealing outfit and act like Zemo’s eye candy for the evening.

“Are you ready yet, Y/N? We need to get going?” Sam calls out from the other side of the curtain separating you from the others. You zip up the remaining zipper to secure the material around your body and slip your feet into the shoes. “I’m coming—,” you mutter, flinging the curtain back and stepping out. “It better not be fucking cold outside.”

Bucky and Sam have no reaction to seeing the ink on your body, having known for awhile you possessed a lot of tattoos. Hell they even would go with you to the parlor on various occasions. Zemo, however, had a reaction—and that was nearly dropping his champagne glass, caught off guard by your appearance.

Brown eyes trailed over your figure, capturing the picture to memory. Your neck had small tattoos— a few peeking from behind your ears. Your collarbones and shoulders leading down to your elbows and from the area where your side was exposed, Zemo could see even more detail adorning the skin. Your calves and ankles were painted in black and grey ink.

Seeing his reaction, you felt heat fill your veins making you narrow your eyes at the Baron. “Something the matter, Baron. Never seen a person with tattoos before?” All through the night you would feel his gaze on you, even when the moment didn’t call for it and you didn’t know whether to feel offended or flattered by the attention.

It wasn’t until you were several drinks in at Sharon’s that you felt the air shift and Zemo was more forward with his silent attraction. “Forgive me if I’ve made you feel uncomfortable with my constant staring, Y/N. But you are quiet a delightful sight.” You didn’t know if it was the alcohol talking, but seeing the way your tattoos made Zemo react gave you a sense of power, and you danced closer to him to whisper in his ear. “Behave for the rest of the night and I might let you see the ones in more discreet areas, Baron.”

He behaved for more than just that one night.

Sam Wilson 

When Sam finds out you have tattoos, and a lot of them at that, he’s a little shocked but definitely finds them to be badass. He’s intrigued by them for the most part and asks questions like “what made you want to get this one?” Or “How bad did this area hurt?” Because he more than likely doesn’t have ink so he’s curious.

The day he finds out was a day you both decided to go for a early morning run, so you equipped yourself with a simple tank top and running pants. You had a lightweight sweater on but eventually took it off when you started to sweat. His eyes are immediately drawn to your arms, where several tattoos scaled from shoulder to elbow. He could see some on the small portion on of your back that was visible from the tank.

“Woah, woah, woah,” he calls out with curious eyes. “Hold it Hawkeye. How come you’ve never mentioned your inked up, Y/N?” You tie the sweater around your waist, raising a brow to him. “The topic never came up. What you didn’t hear Clint and I talking about them the other day at Tony’s party?” He shakes his head with an exaggerated roll of the eyes.

“Obviously,” he drags out, picking up the pace when you go to run again but not before giving another glance to the color on your arms. “I think I would’ve said something if I heard you talking about them—and you were wearing a suit/pantsuit so how could’ve I have known?”

The rest of the run basically continues with the man asking questions and eventually promising you to let him come the next time you go get one done. And it isn’t long before that he starts joking you should get the shield or his wings tattooed in the future, which you obviously laugh at—but you don’t necessarily deny the idea.

Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire)

(Tobey’s) Peter finds out in an embarrassing way when he swung in through your window unannounced when you’d been changing. While you screamed at the sudden appearance, this man was frozen like a deer in headlights. You were only in your undergarments, something he had never seen you in as your relationship was just starting out.

“Peter! What the hell!?” You kept screaming and eventually he broke from his daze with his hands raised. “Sorry! Sorry, sorry, sorry, Y/N—I didn’t mean to scare you.” You quickly pulled your clothes on, not missing how the man had stayed staring at you instead of turning around. “You, you have tattoos. When did you get those?”

You’re almost confused by the question, but then realize it was the first time he had seen you practically naked. The ink on your body was scattered, but there was enough to show you had a liking for the hobby. “Yeah,” you brushed it off like it wasn’t a big deal, “I’ve always liked them and I knew I wanted some since I was a kid.”

He took his mask finally, his eyes soft and in wonder. He’d be lying if he said you didn’t just get hella more attractive than you already were. He was already head over heels in love with you, finding every inch of you amazing, and this just made him even more under your spell. “That—that’s amazing. You just look so cool—beautiful and the artwork on you is so beautiful too.” You couldn’t help but melt by his words.

The two of you cuddle for the rest of the evening, with Peter lazily tracing over your tattoos while asking questions about them. It becomes a tradition after he finishes saving the streets of New York every night, and he can’t help but wait for your new additions so he can trace over them and help you with the care of keeping them clean when they heal. Much like you do for him when he’s injured and it becomes your thing—although you don’t really look forward to having your spider all bloody while he loves watching the ink heal and set into your skin.

Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield)

To (Andrews) Peter, he finds it to be the sexiest thing he’s ever laid eyes on. You never told him you had any tattoos when you first got together and most of them were on your back, hips and side so he never saw them even if you wore simple clothes. It wasn’t until you two had a date night with him taking you to a fancy restaurant that he was in for quite the shock.

You wore something a little more revealing than you usually did when you went out, which showed off your upper and mid back. He had arrived before you were ready so he camped in your living room while you finished up. Once dressed and ready to go, you entered making him stand with a grin.

“How do I look?” You started to spin and when you turned back to his direction, you tilt your head at his perplexed expression. “Uhh, babe you okay?” His jaw was dropped, and you thought you could see a little bit of drool making your face heat up. He lifts a finger, making a spinning motion. “Uh-Uh you have tattoos…on your back—you have tattoos on your back.”

Your mouth makes an ‘o’ shape, forgetting he didn’t know. “Haha, yeah….I have a few actually.” When he doesn’t say anything, you feel your heart panic a little. “Do you have a thing against tattoos?” The question immediately shakes him out of his little naughty visual image he had conjured in his brain. “No, no, no. No, no, no. I’m not against, hell no I’m not. I think that’s just so sexy—you’re, you’re sexy. You have tattoos and you’re sexy—wow.”

Yeah, as you could guess mans could not keep his hands off you after than and would purposely have his fingers trace the raised ink whenever you walked next to each other with his hand on your back. The entire night he couldn’t stop looking at you with absolute awe and desire. So much that he couldn’t wait to make that image he had earlier come true.

Peter Parker (Tom Holland)

(This is more of a sibling/platonic approach)

Peter was never one to think about getting tattoos, but always thought they were cool. So when he finds out you—his mentor and unofficial sibling—is decked out it various designs permanently inked into your skin the boy is jumping in his feet. You’re the coolest person he knows, so the fact you have all this artwork on you—that he knows must’ve hurt in certain places—makes you even cooler in his eyes.

“Wow Y/N when did you get this one? Did it hurt as bad as the one on your back? Can I go with you to get your next one? I don’t think I’d ever get one but its so cool you have all these. Do you think maybe you can get a spider one day?” Are just some of the questions spewing from his lips.

How did he find out you wonder? Well the young vigilante had never seen you outside of your suit so the day comes when he asks if you could spar with him. You agreed, so you changed into something loose which consisted of a plain t-shirt and thin capris. You obviously had some skin showing which made his eyes go straight to the half sleeve you had on your forearm that needed to be filled in.

You both spar, with him successfully dodging your attacks and you helping him on his form with his defensive mechanisms. All the while he’s still admiring the tattoos and part of you is impressed, he’s managed to ramble on without getting distracted. When it comes to an end you finally say. “Okay kid, I’ll cut you a deal. If you don’t cause any trouble for the remainder of the month and complete all your missions, then I will let you pick out my next tattoo.”

You’re not surprised when just two weeks later Peter is at your door with a sketchbook in hand—with majority of the designs involving little spiders.

Chapter Text

Being a young former Black Widow and forming a team with Shuri, Kate, Elijah, Joaquin, and Kid Loki would look like:

• To be honest you weren’t to fazed with the idea of forming a team with the younger crowd of up-and-coming superheroes. Sure you had been friends with Shuri since 2018 and met the others through Sam, Clint, and Thor, but the idea of creating a team like the Avengers never crossed your mind until Shuri proposed the idea. “Ain’t that Val lady forming her own team? Or Secretary Ross is, they’re calling them the Thunderbolts? Yelena was telling me about it—anyway, point is if there’s already a new team of heroes then why make our own?” “Calling them heroes is a little…farfetched if we’re being honest. They are more like the Dark Avengers—and no I was not trying to make a joke. You look at who she’s recruiting and it’s literally that. Think of us as their antithesis.”
• It didn’t take much convincing after that with you literally going, “Fuck it. Let’s do it—might actually give me shit to do now that the world has gone to shit trying to get back to the way it was.” Within the hour you were pulling up to a hangar to meet the others. They all looked excited except Kid Loki. He looked rather annoyed being there—really it was Thor’s idea to have him join to keep him out of trouble. “It was either this or join him in his adventures across space. Frankly I’d rather stay in one place after escaping the Void.”
• Considering you all are some of the most powerful and intelligent kids on the planet, there is bound to be some restrictions. Likely y’all would be staying at Avengers compound or create your own base camp but there would still be oversight. If Fury is not dealing with the Kree then he and Maria are who y’all report to. Other than them, the veteran Avengers tend to look after you guys—like Sam and Clint. “So since you’re now Captain America and you’re technically retired, does that make Torres the Falcon and Bishop Hawkeye?” “If that’s what they want to go by. You’re still called Black Widow aren’t ya?” “Touché”
• So there you have it. Shuri: The Black Panther, Joaquin: the Flacon, You: the Black Widow, Kate: Hawkeye, Kid Loki, & Elijah: The Patriot.
• As expected, you’re a rambunctious group of heroes. Sometimes y’all find yourselves in trouble when you weren’t planning on it. Trouble just finds you guys 90% of the time. Agent Everett Ross has a whole supply of Advil because keeping track of you all gives him a headache. “Your job was to get it, get the intel, and get the hell out of there. What went wrong?” “Well…….as you can see um….yeah I have no explanation. Shuri you got anything?” “Nope. Torres, you?” “I can’t even remember what we were doing there.”
• One time on a mission you guys actually ran into the Thunderbolts and it was quite the scene. First of all you and Yelena were like, “Hey sis! What are you doing here?” Meanwhile Bucky was scolding Elijah & Torres and Walker was getting annoyed with Kid Loki’s tricks. Kate just looked out of place while Shuri was trying to calm everyone down, “It seems there has been a misunderstanding. Unless….it was the plan for all of us to be here.” “What are you saying, Shuri?” “I believe our teams were set up, white wolf. Why else would both of us be called to the same place, for the same exact thing, on the same day?”
• Having a genius like Shuri on your team meant you guys were equipped with some of the best technological advances than anyone else. Even the Thunderbolts were envious of y’all’s artillery. Not only did Joaquin get an upgrade on his falcon wings, but Kate got high tech trick arrows, Elijah a vibranium shield, kid Loki with a scepter and you got some additions to your Widow’s bite and suit. “Shit, I feel like I could take down even Thanos with these.” “Try not to show them off to much, Widow. Secretary Ross is still trying to get me to develop stuff for the Thunderbolts and i’ve given him the impression I’m not even advancing our weaponry. So..keep it on the down low.”
• After some time as a team, you guys would recruit Kamala Khan, RiRi Williams and Cassie Lang as y’all’s Ms. Marvel, IronHeart & Stinger. Peter Parker would eventually join, bringing in his buddy Ned and America Chavez who were Masters of The Mystic Arts. The team grew so large y’all could actually split you guys up when multiple missions came in. With their initiation, Dr. Strange, Captain Marvel, and Scott Lang joined Sam, Clint, Fury, Ross, and Hill as ‘chaperones’.
• “So what do we call ourselves?” “The Young Avengers.” “Isn’t that a derivative?” “Yeah, but it sounds less menacing than Dark Avengers or the Thunderbolts. I mean we are Avengers…just we’re young so it fits.” “True…”

Chapter Text

Joaquin Torres crushing on an avenger would look like:

• Just shortly before the Ultron drama, you were a young recruit to the avengers after the fall of S.H.I.E.L.D. Unbeknownst to the team—especially Natasha—you were a former Black Widow who escaped the red room during a mission and defected to the U.S. before Dreykov could track you. Because the Red Room was constantly moving, you were clueless to where it could have gone and for your protection Fury had your identity changed and record concealed from the rest of the organization. This of course had people wary and suspicious of you—considering you were exceptional in the field—but you kept a low profile and did whatever Fury asked of you. He promised to inform you if the Red Room every came on their radar and vowed to help you take it down when the time came.
• Unfortunately, that promise would not happen with the implementation of the Sokovia Accords. Fury was off the grid, and your teammates were at odds with one another. Though you verbally remained neutral and did not physically get involved when the fight in Germany occurred, behind the scenes you were supportive of Steve and became close with him and Sam. You finally went rogue at 17 when Natasha confronted you after she discovered your identity and the fact the Red Room was still active. “Fury knew didn’t he? This whole time—you both knew Dreykov was still out there!” “It’s more complicated than you think, Natasha. I was barely fourteen when I escaped and had nowhere else to go! Fury did what he had to protect me. We both have tried tracking the Red Room but have gotten no leads.” “Well I have one. So let’s go end this once and for all.”
• Together you two took down Dreykov with the help of her adoptive family before ultimately meeting up with Steve to break the others out of the Raft. For two years you went on the run. Then in 2018 you all were called to battle against the Mad Titan, Thanos, where you lost half of the population when he succeeded in his mission. For five years you and Natasha remained at the compound, doing whatever you could to maintain the Avengers. And when the opportunity came to fix it all, you were left heartbroken at the loss of her and Tony.
• Sam took you under his wing (pun intended) when you and the other former fugitives received pardons. Steve was gone, the Avengers were not so much an active organization anymore, and the Accords had been abolished. You pretty much became a government agent again—with your true identity now that Dreykov was long gone. Every agency wanted you; FBI, CIA, Homeland Security, OSI, the Secret Service, even the goddamn Marshals were calling you to be one of their operatives. “Have you decided whose badge you’ll wear yet?” “I’ve pretty much narrowed it down to either the CIA or OSI. Ross is with the CIA so that’s a plus, but with OSI I could work with you when you’re off with the Air Force. Honestly, Sam, I feel like just becoming a freelance so I can get a taste of everything.”
• In the end, you did become a freelance agent under the code name ‘Red Widow,’ as not to be confused with Natasha since she was always known as THE Black Widow. You wore a similar suit she did, except yours was red and the hourglass on the belt was black. You enjoyed being a freelance agent where you got to be flexible with what you did. But boy was it fucking hell at times. One week you’re escorting the President, the next you’re investigating a potential threat to the country, and (like most times) you’re partnering with Sam when he finds himself in a pickle. It’s on one of those many adventures with Sam that you meet First Lieutenant Joaquin Torres.
• After the threatening phone call from Karlie, Sam had called you and you immediately sent a team of agents to protect his sister & nephews before getting on a plane to Riga. It was not even a second after you landed that you received dozens of phone calls, emails, texts, and news notifications about what took place in the middle of a crowded area between John Walker and a member of the Flag Smashers. You pretty much hauled ass to the location when you finally got a hold of Sam—and you’d be lying if you said you didn’t feel satisfaction at being the one to cuff Walker and escort him to the SUV.
• Finally you find your friends, running into Bucky on his way out where you two exchanged words on what he was about to do. “Need me to get in touch with Okoye for you?” “I’m already on it—don’t worry about me.” After saying goodbye, you entered the doorway to see Sam and a young Air Force Officer chatting. “Hope I’m not interrupting.” “You’re right on time, Red.” Your voice had the officer, who had his back to you, spinning around to which he froze when y’all made eye contact. First thing you thought was, ‘Damn he’s a cutie.’
• Joaquin was practically smitten upon first glance. There was a light blush to his cheeks when he unconsciously checked you as you strutted up to the pair in your eye-catching Red Widow suit. When Sam introduced him, the man couldn’t even find his voice, “Uh-Uh hi. I-I’m Torres—Joa-Joaquin Torres.” Sam looked amused, as did you, “Nice to meet you, Joaquin. I’ve got many names, but you can call me Y/n or Red.” Your wink at the end pretty much sealed the deal, Joaquin thinking, ‘Oh yeah, I’m screwed.”
• Anytime Sam called you after that Joaquin would silently looking forward to seeing you. He thought you were absolutely beautiful, funny, intelligent, and a complete badass. The first time he saw you in action the man was rendered speechless. Of course he knew who you were (after restoring the population, you and the remaining avengers were international heroes) so Joaquin was pretty much a fanboy (if you know you know 😉). Seeing you take down ten men twice your size in the flesh was something he literally bragged to his squadron about for days.
• You were well aware of the little crush Joaquin had on you. And to be honest, you shared the feeling. The first time you saw him you thought he was adorable with his cute smile and blushing cheeks (not to mention he looked damn good in uniform). Anytime Sam called you up and Joaquin was there, you couldn’t pass on the opportunity to flirt with him. “Nice to see your pretty face again, Torres.” “I heard that Sam gave you his old wings…have you decided what to do with them? I could use a wingman now that Sam is off being Captain America and hardly needs me anymore.”
• Something about you implying you’d want him as a wingman motivated Joaquin to finish fixing up the wings he had already started working on. It excited him to work with you from behind the scenes, but he was itching to get in the air/on the ground and be an asset alongside you. Sam could tell what his goal was, so the older man slowly took Joaquin under his wing like he did you to help prepare him for the superhero life.
• When it finally came time for Joaquin to join in on the action, he became your eyes in the sky while you scouted the ground. The Air Force was pretty much your main employer (similar to Sam) but you still did work for other agencies. And since you and Joaquin worked so well together, it was no surprise you’d call him up for help. He was your wingman after all. Not too long after, you two were a team sought after by the many agencies you did freelance work for. “Damn that’s the third mission this month! Don’t you ever get tired of this sometimes?” “Every day, but I gotta keep the bills paid, pretty boy.”
• Your friendship was very flirtatious. People often thought you two were a thing and were surprised to find out they were wrong. You teased and bickered, gave little glances when the other wasn’t looking and complimented each other. His name in your phone was literally ‘pretty boy💋’ and yours was either ‘muñeca🧸’ (doll) or ‘hermosa🥰’ (beautiful). Each time y’all would call the other the pet names, you’d both blush. The crushes on each other definitely increased with each flirtatious remark.
• “Damn girl, you know how to make an entrance.” “Wait don’t go yet, let me commit your face to memory in case I die out there.”
• “Imma need you to focus, Torres. I know I’m exceptional to look at, but I don’t want that pretty face of yours getting hurt because you’re distracted.” “If you die out there, who’s gonna dance with me at next months officers' ball?”
• It would be a good time before Joaquin finally worked up the courage to ask you out. As much as he liked you, there was the fear it would ruin the friendship y’all had created. Joaquin admired you from afar and would brush aside his feelings when it came time to business, but at the end of the day there was no denying he wished for something more. At one point Sam even brought it up, wondering why he hadn’t made a move. “It’s complicated, Sam. She’s my wingman and I’d hate to lose her.” “Torres, I see the way she looks at you. Have you ever noticed she never flirts with anyone else when we go out. At banquets people hit on her, but her eyes are only on you. Trust me, she wants the same thing as you.”
• Although Sam’s words made him confident, Joaquin was still anxious it wouldn’t work. So he continued to harbor his crush on you from behind the scenes. Finally you had enough and decided to take matters into your own hands after a mission. It had been nearly a year since y’all met and quite frankly your feelings for Joaquin were starting to become overwhelming. “Are we gonna dance around this forever, Torres? Or, am I gonna have to drag you to the bar to have a drink with me and kick this off once and for all?”
• At his incredulous expression, you walked up with your hands coming to his collar to pulled him toward you. That finally had him snap out of his daze, face red by how flustered he was. But within his expression was joy and awe, “I-uh. Are you sure, y/n? I care about you so much a-and I know I’ve made my crush on you painfully obvious b-but I-I don’t wanna ruin what we have—.” “Joaquin, you’ll always be my wingman because I trust you more than anyone else on this planet. The fact you are blind to see I feel the same about is both shocking and adorable. I want you to be my wingman both on and off the field in a more personal manner. So what do you say?”
• Let’s just say, the kiss you received was him a great answer.

Chapter Text

Being the child of Tony Stark, having a genius level IQ, and best friends with Princess Shuri of Wakanda would look like:

• Okay so believe it or not you two became friends through social media and were literally anonymous mutuals for some time. I’m talking you both either were on Tumblr of all places or had secret instagram accounts that only followed select individuals. You were already a semi-public figure with close to a million followers, but had a secret account dedicated for snooping people you admired. For Shuri, Wakanda kept their way of life private so she had an anonymous page where she showcased her creations that did not involve vibranium or labeled it as a different metal to throw people off.
• Both of you knew the other was a genius which is what started the friendship in the first place. You had followed Shuri’s private page, and she followed your public one but it wasn’t until you slid in her dms to compliment a deign she posted that you two began talking.
• Shuri had let you know from the beginning that she loved to build tech, while you focused on the field of Quantum physics. That’s what your private instagram was mostly used, but you kept any information linking back to you secret. Mostly you talked about the science and offered advice to people seeking education/work in STEM.
• Both of you enjoyed the anonymity without the pressure of the outside world. it gave you some peace of mind being able to confide without judgment for who your father was. And for Shuri, she wasn’t looked at as just a princess of a nation. You both admired each other’s intelligence and wit.
• It wasn’t until you both skipped on some personal details when messaging each other that you guys were like “wait, are you….who I think you are.”
• Of course you two knew of each other and were the same age but had yet to formally meet after the chaos of recent years. The whole Accords thing brought a lot of changes to both of your lives being that Shuri lost her father and you witnessed the breakdown of the Avengers who were like a second family to you.
• The first FaceTime call you guys had was wild. Shuri, mindful of what you saw around her, couldn’t believe she hadn’t figured out who you were after you said your ‘family’ was in the public eye a lot because of what they did. Not to mention you said your father went to MIT & owned a large company that your grandfather founded.
• “I’m surprised it took so long for us to finally meet. I’ve been following your personal page for years and was fascinated when you manipulated quantum energy for one of your prototypes.” “Same goes for you, Shuri. I’ve been a fan of your page since you created it! Did you really develop your own A.I system when you were fourteen? That’s so freakin cool.”
• You guys continued to talk for months and soon your friendship blossomed with you guys texting nearly every other day. You talked school, work, ranted about people who annoyed you and romantic interests you were involved in. “Finding a suitor is the least of my concern nowadays. I just want to spend the hours in my lab where my devices don’t talk back to me.” “Ain’t that the truth. Romance is exhausting.”
• “How was the banquet last night?” “Boring as always. Just a bunch of fancy people in suits and gowns who continue to look down on me cause I’m younger though I have more accomplishments than they could dream of.”
• “Did you complete that update you were telling me about?” “Yes and I’m so pleased with how it turned out. I had to remind my brother again that just because something works doesn’t mean it can’t be improved.”
• Eventually you two considered the other your best friend. For two years you maintained contact and when you developed the hologram system to be long range with the help of F.R.I.D.A.Y, you were able to project the other to y’all’s location. “Holy shit! This is amazing!”
• You guys give each other advice, gossip on the latest celebrity drama, pick out outfits whenever you have an event and share ideas about designs.
• There were future plans for you two to meet in person, with Shuri hoping to travel to Boston where you attended school MIT after graduation high school early. But to both of your surprise, you ended up in Wakanda with Steve, Bruce, Sam, Rhodey, Vision, Wanda, and Natasha after your father went missing following a fight with aliens sent by Thanos. When you got the news, you raced to Avengers compound where you met up the others.
• Steve was hesitant to let you come, but when it was revealed where they were going you said, “I can help. Trust me, both Shuri and I can figure something out.” Everyone became confused with Rhodey going, “How is it you know the princess of Wakanda?” “She’s my bestie. A genius one at that.”
• The second you stepped into the lab Shuri squealed, ignoring the array of looks you two were receiving as she pulled you into a hug. “Why didn’t you tell me you were coming?” “Eh, though I’d surprise you.” T’challa looked between the two of you, before raising his brows to his sister for an answer. “You two know each other?” “I told you, brother, my bestie’s a genius.”

Spending Valentine’s Day w/ Peter would be:

• There’s never a dull moment when you’re with Peter—and Valentine’s Day is no exception. In fact, the chaos seems to be heightened by the holiday, because let's be honest our man loves to the high life.
• He’s also a big romantic—candles are lit, rose petals fill the bed in the shape of a heart, chocolates all around and of course kisses are peppered all over your face. “I love you, I love you, I love you so so much. Happy Valentine’s Day baby.”
• The entire day Peter is taking pictures of you. Sometimes he asks you to pose—giving your best smile, while most of the time its candid & off guards when you’re not looking. He plans to make an entire album of just the photos he took from that day.
• Peter will do whatever you want. If you wanna stay indoors he’s game but if you want to go out then he’s up and ready. “What do you want to do today, Y/n? We can watch a movie, go to the coffee shop or stay in bed and make-out. I-I personally love the third option but I’ll leave the deciding up to you.” “Well when you say it like that…”
• Stay in bed and make-out it is. After about an hour of doing this activity you two eventually do end up going to your favorite coffee shop for lunch.
• You stop by Aunt Mays home to bring her flowers and chocolates. It had been so long since she’d received anything on Valentine’s Day that the action brought tears to her eyes. You also lay a few roses on Bens's grave with a small picture of May taped to the stems.
• Peter doesn’t go on patrol that night—dedicating his evening to you so he can shower you with attention. You two cuddle by a fire, enjoying the company while a random show you’ve been binge watching plays on the tv. “I can’t believe you got me into this reality trash tv.” “Oh hush you love it—ooo Snooki is not going to be happy with Vinny.”
• The man is the type of person who will order a pizza for you guys—but requests for it be cut in the shape of a heart.
• Ice cream is a must for Valentine’s Day date night. You both get your favorite flavor and feed spoonfuls to each other—Peter even dabbing some on your cheek so he could lick it off. “EW! Peter—what the hell?” “Mmmh I love strawberry—great flavor.”
• You two dance around like maniacs when you get tired of watching tv—basically having a dance battle in the living room, but Peter always wins cause he’s got knees like no other man you’ve seen. “Dancing to Rasputin on Just Dance prepared me for this moment, Y/n.”
• When the song changes to Paul Anka’s ‘Put Your Head On My Shoulders,’ you’re brought to his arms, Peter tucking your head beneath his chin—because he’s so damn tall—and you two sway to the beat of the soft melody. It’s makes the warmth in your heart rise, enjoying being held by the man you love—your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.
• Eventually Peter becomes mischievous because his lips go to your neck to press kisses to the skin—the action making you heat up. “Peter…” “What I’m just giving you some lovin’.” “You know how this is going to end. “Maybe that’s what I’m hoping for.”
• Lovers' day was all about loving after all 😉

Being Tony’s sister who Agent Everett Ross falls for would look like:

• The first time you two met was during the whole Accords fiasco. As Tony’s public relations advisor and one of the legal representatives of the Avengers, you were present when Steve, Bucky, Sam & T’challa were brought into custody. You were known to be a background character in the organization—the world unaware you were just as skilled as the heroes they idolized. Kicking ass was something you were quite good at—same with keeping secrets.
• Everett had been escorting the group as you & Natasha walked toward them, and honestly the man nearly tripped when the two of you made eye contact.
• In the room when the agent was getting ready to watch Barnes’ evaluation, you approached much to his surprise, “Ms. Stark, what can I do you for you?” “Hi, is there anything you can tell me regarding the charges Mr. Rogers and Wilson will be?”
• The conversation between you two was quick, but you couldn’t help but notice how nervous Everett seemed to be. You could’ve sworn he blushed when you smiled to him while saying goodbye.
• You didn’t see much of him after that—especially with what happened with Bucky just less than an hour later.
• The next time you’d see Everett Ross was after Zemo was arrested & you were doing undercover work for Fury unbeknownst to the federal government. He had informed you of a black-market deal involving stolen vibranium into South Korea. The plan was to intercept whoever was buying the object. “Are you sure no one from any agency will be attending?” “I’m sure Stark, if you come across one then abort the mission.”
• You had been minding your own business at the bar, keeping your eyes out for suspicious activity when someone took a seat on the stool next to you. “Fancy seeing you here, Ms. Stark.” “I could ask you the same thing, Agent Ross.” “If you’re here for why I think you’re here, then you should know it’s a bad idea—It would be my obligation to arrest you for violating the accords.” “So it’s safe to assume you’re here for the same thing, I take it?”
• Of course, Everett tried to persuade you to leave—and you should’ve given your orders to abort if a federal agent was present, but you were curious why he was here. Was he also trying to intercept the buyer? Or did they set up a sting? Eventually he told you it was a sting and there were other agents in the room, so it wasn’t wise for you to try and intercept.
• “Look I have nothing against you, Ms. Stark—.” “Please call me Y/n, Agent Ross.” “—okay, Y/n, I have nothing against you. But I can’t stop these other agents from arresting you if you try anything. Your best move is to say you’re here on vacation. I’m surprised they even let you in—how did you get in?” “When you have a lot of money and say you’re swinging the other way of the law, they’ll let anyone in.”
• To say you were shocked to see T’Challa was an understatement. The airport in Germany was the last you had seen of him and you were already aware the man was housing Bucky in Wakanda. “Nice to see you, your highness.” “Ms. Stark, pleasure to be reacquainted.” The two of you chatted while Ross was trying to lay low at a table, but every now and then you could see him steal a glance your way. T’Challa took notice of this too, “I see many of us had the same idea regarding the stolen vibranium. I must ask, who sent you—considering they must be aware of the accords.” “A man who doesn’t give a shit about government authority.”
• When the whole CIA sting went sideways, you were one of the first to react. A man had pulled a gun—aiming at Everett & T’Challa so you hit him in the head with your glass and disarmed him before firing shots at those around who also had guns. When Ulysses escaped you didn’t chase after him knowing the agents present would arrest without hesitating.
• At one point a guy nearly took out Everett so you jumped on a poker table to wrap your legs over his neck and flip him down. The CIA agent was blown away to say the least—his jaw separated from his mouth. “How did you do that?” “What you thought Tony was the only one in the family who could fight?”
• As the chaos came to an end you helped Everett from the ground, the man thanking you and asking if you’d come with the rest of the agents to report what happened that night. “I’m not an agent like you, Ross.” “Please call me Everett. And I’m aware, but I think we can work together and maybe I’ll see what I can do to prevent you from being prosecuted for violating the accords.” You were a little upset when you heard that, “I didn’t do anything until they tried to kill you guys—.” “You know Secretary Ross and the U.N won’t look at it that way. They’ll see how you happened to be here at the same time as us and find it suspicious.”
• You knew he was right and ended up agreeing with his offer. Fury would have to know, so you planned to tell him whenever you got a moment alone without the agents watchful eyes. Everett escorted you to his car and the two of you drove to where Okoye & Nakia were before following T’Challa where the CIA apprehended Klaue.
• Everything seemed to happen so quick once Klaue was in custody. After his interview the place is bombed and shot up which led to Everett being shot in the spine and Klaue escaping. You were standing beside Nakia & Everett when you were suddenly pushed to the ground, landing with a huff. When you saw Ross on the ground, your heart stopped making you race to him and pressed your jacket to his back to stop the bleeding, “Hey-hey, stay with me, Everett. You’re going to be okay.”
• When T’Challa offers to take Ross to Wakanda to be treated you felt immense relief. Even though you were barely friends with the agent and had yet to really know him, he was never unkind and did look out for you. You’d be lying if you said you weren’t getting a soft spot for the silver haired man.
• He was very attractive—maybe a little older than you, but not by much. You guessed he was around Tony’s age or a few years younger, but you didn’t mind that. Everett was kind, determined, a loyal agent, and there was something about him where he was kinda oblivious to things going on around him—but it was cute. Plus, he had gorgeous eyes and you had a thing for guys in suits.
• You stayed close to Everett the entire time during the trip to Wakanda, even holding his hand for comfort—something T’Challa took notice of. The entire time you two were in the country seemed to cause an unexpected pull between you both. Part of you could feel his eyes on you whenever you were nearby—and how his face turned a little red each time you caught him staring. It made butterflies appear in your stomach.
• The news of T’Challa’s death devastated you and made you fear for the safety of his family. When Nakia grabbed you and Everett, you couldn’t help but take his hand as you made your way with the group to the J’Bari tribe. The happiness you felt when T’Challa was still alive was immense—relieved for both him and his family. You even shared a hug with Everett, who was surprised by the action.
• During the confrontation with Killmonger, you stayed in the lab with Everett to wait for Shuri’s orders. You were no pilot, so you were equipped with some weapons designed by the teen genius if anything went sideways. When the lab was being attacked and Everett continued to pilot the aircraft, you prepared yourself to fire if the barrier were to break.
• Luckily the man was successful, but when he just fell from the chair and stayed down you were about to lose it. “Yes! We did it!” “Okay now let’s go before we get killed!” He grabbed your hand and the two of you ran like hell out of the lab.
• When everything ended and T’Challa was back in his rightful place on the throne, you and Everett said your goodbyes and thanks of gratitude to the King, Shuri, Nakia and pretty much everyone who helped you. Hugs were all around and there was a small celebration for Wakanda having their King returned.
• Before sending you off, you had a moment with T’Challa where he informed you of the situation with Bucky, but you only smiled when he finished. “I already knew he was here, your highness. Although I’m still dealing with the emotional grief for the truth of what happened to my parents, I do have hope you and Shuri will be able to give him the help he needs. You all are wonderful for doing such a thing.”
• You and Ross returned to the States together—still trying to process all that had happened within the short week. Not only that, but there was this unspoken connection between you two—especially with how you had saved his life in South Korea. And he had pushed both you and Nakia out of the way to take the bullet. You both owed your lives to each other—and that’s something no one could possibly understand unless they are a direct party.
• The journey was filled with small talk, but it was enjoyable. Even the small moments of silence were comforting between you two. “You never mentioned if your brother knew you were here.” “Tony and I haven’t really spoke much since Siberia. We both need time to ourselves to deal with our emotions.”
• “Why the CIA, silver fox? The blush on his face from the nickname made you smirk in victory. “Well, after the military I thought it was the best route to go.” “And how’s that going for you?” “Definitely has it’s days to say the least.”
• “So why did you not be an Avenger on the front line? You are obviously trained and have what it takes to be one.” “I’m not like my brother, Everett. The spotlight isn’t for me—I prefer behind the scenes. I wouldn’t make a good spy if I was constantly being photographed. So really the Accords shouldn’t apply to me, but because I have access to Tony’s suits and could operate them they made me sign.”
• When the plane landed and your respected cars pulled up to escort you home, part of you was not ready to say goodbye to the man. And Everett wasn’t ready either. “Y/n, I know this maybe isn’t appropriate, but would you like to grab dinner?” “I was hoping you’d ask, silver fox. Lead the way.”
• The mission should have been aborted in the beginning with you leaving as soon as you spoke with the handsome agent at the underground bar in Busan, but you were so grateful you didn’t. Because every day after that first date back in the States, your heart was slowly captured by the silver haired CIA agent.
• And little did you know, you had captured his the second you two made eye contact all those weeks ago in Bucharest.

Chapter Text

Being Tony Stark’s sister (an avenger) who is engaged to Everett Ross & rescuing him from detainment would look like:

• After meeting Ross in 2016 and becoming a couple following events of their visit Wakanda and the blip, you and Everett were coming up on your eight-year anniversary with one year of being engaged. So much had happened that resulted in Everett delaying a proposal to you—most notably the death of your brother, Tony, and your good friend Natasha Romanoff—and felt that you two were at a good point in your relationship that there was no need for pressure on marriage. However, when Ev did propose you tackled him to the ground with a big ‘yes!’ & a kiss to the lips.
• Everett had worries for his first marriage did not work out and therefore feared it would be the same for the two of you. But after years and sticking by one another during the hardships of half the population being gone for 5 years and losing loved ones, you two were stronger than ever.
• So fast forward to 2024. The world is restored, and you’ve come to accept the loss of Tony and Nat by moving forward as a prominent figure in getting Earth back to the way it was. Everett was with you every step of the way—although he was worried when you left to assist Sam and Bucky with the super soldier fiasco. It did not help that his ex-wife, Val who also was the Director of the CIA, was on his ass and threatened to have you arrested if things didn’t get cleaned up.
• The news of T’Challa’s death brought sadness and grief to the both of you. If it wasn’t for him, Everett would have never survived the bullet wound to his spine. The two of you kept in touch after bringing him and everyone who vanished back with T’Challa sending you a condolence gift after Tony’s funeral. In the same fashion, you and Everett sent one to Shuri and Queen Ramonda. Contact with Shuri fell shortly later, but you both understood she was grieving the loss of her brother and let her know that you two were there for her if she ever needed anything.
• When Shuri does come to you nearly a year later asking about a scientist who developed a vibranium detector drill, you were more willing to give up the information than Everett. Technically you were not in the CIA and only a contact due to your relationship with Ross, but you understood he was risking treason if he were to say something. “Ev, they have the right to know. This is putting their people in jeopardy.”
• It wasn’t too long after that Ev came to you with Shuri’s bracelet that he found at a crash site. It brought dread to you, for you feared something bad had happened and made it your mission to assist in finding her. You had made some new adjustments to Stark Industries and the tech (against the governments wishes) but was unable to locate her last signal. Ross kept you updated on his conversations with Queen Ramonda, and the fact it was possible Val was onto him. “She may have bugged the beads, Ev. You need to be careful.” “Her and I got to the site at the same time. There’s no way she knew they were there—I found them hidden under a piece of debris.”
• But, like most cases, you were right. Val had bugged the beads before Ross had shown up and was aware of every conversation he had with Ramonda. You had been downtown in your lab, working on a way to find Shuri, when the news of the Queen’s death broke. Before you could even react, there was a announcement from F.R.I.D.A.Y, “Forgive my interruption, Ms. Stark, but there has been an intrusion at your home.” Dread filled you, “Pull up the perimeter and indoor security footage at once.”
• It is there you see the one and only Director Valentina Alegra de Fontaine standing in your kitchen and your poor fiancé looking pale faced and fearful. “Get me audio, F.R.I.D.A.Y.” Listening in, Val admits she had the beads bugged, heard every phone call, and knew you were involved. “I’ve already sent a squad out to detain Stark—the Accords may have been abolished but your girl has committed treason just as you have, Ross,” she says before pulling out handcuffs when Everett pleads to her to not do what she’s doing. Sure enough F.R.I.D.A.Y is letting you know a car with armed agents had arrived outside your building.
• You managed to escape with little to no scratches on you—but the same could not be said for the agents. When you got to one of many safe houses, you finally let your emotions lose. You grieved for Ramonda, you cried for Shuri—who was now alone—and you feared for your fiancé. F.R.I.D.A.Y showed you footage of the house where you witnessed Everett cuffed and hauled into the back of a SUV.
• Your hands were full with tracking the CIA’s decisions on Ev while also trying to get updates from Wakanda. The only one you managed to contact was Okoye—who took a liking to you in 2016 and fought along side you in 2018 & 2023–who told you everything that happened in the recent weeks. Okoye told you they were handling things and to not get involved. You promised and Okoye even gave her word that she’d help you find Ross once they finished with the Tolakons.
• When the call does come from Okoye, you were filled with immense relief by what she tells you. That a truce was made between the two countries, Shuri made peace with Namor and has taken on the mantle of the Black Panther, and Wakanda was rebuilding itself after the attack. “I am so glad to hear you and the others are alright.” “Thank you, Y/n. It is a relief we were met with victory. Now let us save your love—Shuri has his location. I’m sending you coordinates; I will meet you there in the hour.” “Wha-wha-wait what? Are you in Virginia?” “The middle of the Atlantic Ocean to be exact.”
• The answer to your question came in the form of a flying blue metal suit landing in front of you, “AH! What the hell?! Oh its you!” The alarm of threat turned into relief as a smile appeared on your face when the mask removed to reveal Okoye’s amused expression. Together you two intercept the van transferring Everett to prison with Okoye cutting down a tree to block the road. When the van comes to a stop, you pull the driver from his seat and shock him unconscious while Okoye deals with the passenger.
• Instead of opening the back doors, you let Okoye have her fun and watch from the side as she throws open the doors—mask covering her identity—and could literally picture the look on Everetts face. You hold back your giggle at his sound of relief when she uncovers the mask and says, “Colonizer in chains. Now I have seen everything.”
• That’s when you come around the side and meet his eyes, Everett can’t stop his grin. Hopping in the van you get his wrist and ankle cuffs off, “You know, it’s taken everything in me to not go after your ex for opening that bottle of wine we were saving for the rehearsal dinner.” “Well, darling, it looks like that wedding is gonna have to get pushed back. Again.”
• Together the three of you head into the woods to where she parked the aircraft to take you three back to Wakanda. It was the safest option for you to at that moment, with being fugitives on the run. “Now I know how Cap and them felt all those years ago.” You could not tell anyone where you were, but sent word to Pepper, Rhodey, and Happy you were safe and with Everett. They were sad and Rhodey promised to find a way to get you two pardoned. “I’ll talk with Sam—see if there is something Fontaine is hiding that could help your case.” “Thank you, Rhodey. I appreciate what you’re doing greatly. I just hate I’m putting you in this position.”
• It was unknown how long you and Ev would be on the run, but thankfully you two had the help of Shuri, Okoye, and the people of Wakanda by your side. For you owed them your life for everything they had done for you and Everett. “We’re lucky—you and I,” Everett said as you two watched the beautiful sunset from your balcony of the apartment Shuri had given you, “to have them as our friends.” “We are. And we will make it up to them as soon as we can. They have given us so much. I would rather meet death than not return the gratitude.” Everett presses a kiss to your forehead before one to your lips, “So would I.”

Chapter Text

Everett Ross being in a relationship w/ an Avenger would look like:

• The whole Accords thing brought a lot of attention to you—being an avenger and what not. In fact, you were still on the fence about signing and were pretty much loyal to Steve. He’d been the one to recruit you in the first place after the team had responded to a situation where it was believed former Hydra associates were housing a enhanced individual. The individual being yourself.
• You could track any person once you saw a picture of them or heard their voice. Once you focused, you were able to mentally transport yourself to their location and hear whatever they were saying. This made you a target for a lot of people, because you could spy on enemies.
• After the explosion in Vienna, you volunteered to find Bucky before the feds. “You don’t have to do this, Y/n.” “He’s your friend, Cap. And if you think he’s innocent then I’m going to help you prove it.” So, you found a spot to conceal yourself and got to work. You weren’t the best fighter compared to your teammates, but you were far better than the federal agents who got their ass handed to them.
• After being detained with Sam, Steve, Bucky, and to your surprise, T’Challa, you came face to face with Agent Everett Ross. Him and the other agents hauled you to a conference room. You didn’t say much to him, only a word of thanks when he brought you the glass of water you asked for. You missed how his eyes had lingered a bit longer on you than they should have.
• When all hell broke loose at a rampage winter soldier, you stunned the agent when you side tackled Bucky before he attacked Ross. It was just an instinct—Bucky would’ve smushed him like a bug and although you weren’t a super soldier, you could at least throw him off his feet. You got pretty banged up however when he threw you into a glass wall after a few punches.
• Ross was at your side in an instant, worry plastered on his face as he called for medics. “Where does it hurt, Miss. L/n?” “Everywhere—what do you think.” It wasn’t like you to be rude, but c’mon the man literally witnessed you tossed like a rag doll. Because of your condition, you were in the hospital when the fight at the airport took place. And with that you were not arrested like you probably would’ve been.
• To your surprise, Ross visited you with the information of what took place. “Where are they now?” “Maximoff, Lang, Barton, and Wilson are in the Raft,” He frowned at your sad expression, “No word from Rogers and Barnes.” From then on, Ross would check in during your recovery. You were hesitant about his intentions—being a government agent and all that, you feared he was trying to get close to in on behalf of the CIA so you’d sign the Accords.
• You brought this up the day before you were set to discharge. Cap had contacted you on a burner phone and told you his plans. You pretty much knew you were going to help, but you’d come to enjoy the visits and talks with Ross that you felt guilty if you went on the run. “Why do you do this, Ross?” “Please call me Everett. And what do you mean?” “Everett, how come you visit me like this so often? Why it is you want?” You saw how his cheeks turned red, and it made your heart slightly flutter. “I-I uh—um. I just wanted to thank you—for-for what you did—you know stopping Barnes.” When you get confirmation he wasn’t trying to coy you, you come clean to him on your plans. He immediately protests against it—saying you’ll be arrested and you simply tell him, “I think since I saved your life, Agent, that you owe me a favor. Don’t you think?”
• So that’s how you ended up on the run with Team Cap with a head start. Ross did owe you and promised to not say anything when you discharged the hospital that day. You saw the somewhat sad look in his face and vowed to check in from time-to-time. He of course was confused at first and asked how to which you joked, “Don’t worry, Silver-Fox, I’ll find you.”
• And find him you did because a month later you nearly gave him a heart attack after he got home one night to find you lounging in his living room. A wave of questions had flew from his mouth and you did your best to answer them. “I just thought I’d let you know I’m still alive.” “Can I get a heads-up next time?” The friendship you had was odd but somehow made sense. It would be a few months before either of you could admit you were feeling something more for each other.
• When that happened, it was complicated due to the fact you were a fugitive, and he was a government agent. The moment you realized you truly had feelings for the man was when he told you what happened in Wakanda. You were furious and relieved about him being shot and surviving. That was when you knew you couldn’t deny it any further. It was the same thing for him when he hadn’t heard from you in almost three months only to find out you had a close call with the feds. “How long are we going to dance around this before we just suck it up and admit we feel something for each other?” “Well since you're saying something, It’s safe to assume that dance is ending.”
• For two years you two kept your relationship hidden from the world. The only ones who knew were the avengers you were with, and you know they’d never tell a soul. You communicated with burner phones or you’d hack into a public computer with a random email and speak in code. Everett could tell when it was you and made sure no one was around or made sure he was using personal devices. Whenever you and the team were in the states you’d pop into his place—often scaring him like the first time you did.
• “I want you here with me, Y/n. So much it’s starting to hurt.” “I know, Ev, but just a little longer if I can help it.” That was also the first night you two said you loved each other. The next morning Cap was calling you back after he got word from Banner—who you were shocked to hear was back—about what happened in New York. Ev was fearful of letting you go after you explained the situation. “This doesn’t sound good—maybe you should stay here—.” “I’m an Avenger, Everett. Whether the government sees it or not, I have to go with them.” “Just promise you’ll come back.” “When have I ever broken a promise to you?”
• You didn’t realize that promise would have a close call when you stepped onto the quinjet. Your friends and allies were dusting right before your eyes after Thanos managed to snap his fingers—horror splaying across your face and you waited for it to happen to you. When it didn’t your heart began to race at the thought of Everett. While everyone was reacting to the chaos unfolding, you found a quiet area by a bush and closed your eyes to track him, completely ignoring the searing pain in your side after Thanos flung you into a tree.
• To your relief, you found him in a frenzy at work as the same thing was happening to the people around him. “What’s happening!?” He shouted into his comm, running as the alarms went off. You followed him, anxiously waiting if he would turn into dust with tears falling from your eyes. Then you saw him grab his phone, frantically dialing and placing it to his ear while muttering, “Please, please, not you. Please pick up.” In that moment you realized he was trying to call you, and you watched helplessly knowing you left your phone on the jet. “Pick up!” He shouted when it went to voicemail and dialed again, “C’mon, Y/n, please.”
• His relief, which brought tears to his eyes, came at the text from you nearly twenty minutes later reading: ‘get to Avengers compound.’ He made it there in a record time, waiting for any sign of the quinjet and kept busy by watching the news, pacing, and nonstop calls from the agency. The second he heard the jet he was out the doors and running across the lawn to the landing pad. He was slightly shaking and when he saw you stepping off, the others behind, he ran as you limped your way down the steps.
• A gasp followed by a sob left you when he caught you in his arms. Everett’s hand was in your hair while his arm was tightly around your waist. “Oh my God, I thought—.” “I know. I thought too.” “How’d you know I didn’t—?” “I found you. First thing I did.” The others walked passed, defeat coating them head to toe, and left to give you two some privacy. You both kissed, then he noticed how you were holding onto your side when you both pulled away. Immediately Everett got you into the compound for Banner to look at your wounds.
• None of the Avengers worried about Everett arresting them or calling the feds. After what was going on in the world, a couple of wanted criminals would be the last priority with half the words population disappearing. That night he held you as you cried and wept for your fallen friends. There was still no word of Tony and although you hadn’t spoken to him in two years you still cared about him. Everett kissed away your tears and brushed his fingers through your hair until you had fallen asleep.
• The next morning you helped Nat and Steve try to track those they couldn’t account for. The whole time Everett held your hand and would suggest a break when he could tell you were getting tired. “I found him,” you said in relieved sigh, eyes closed though you could see Tony clear as day in your mind. Sadness came when there was no trace of Fury, or Shuri, or Scott, or the kid Peter Parker the others told you about. You found Pepper, and then Happy, and then Clint, but your heart ached discovering all of his family disappeared.
• You even found Thanos. But there was no way you could even put a name to where he was at. It would take some time before you all found him. Weeks passed and Everett stayed by your side. There wasn’t much he could do for the Avengers and the same went for the CIA. The higher ups were trying to figure out something, and all he could do was wait until they called for him.
• When Tony was rescued and the second defeat came at the discovery Thanos had destroyed the stones (a trip both you and Everett went on and got to share a journey to space together) the question came on how to go from there. Nat was already working on establishing the Avengers with who they had, but some decided to go separate ways. It was a difficult conversation for you and Everett, both of you unsure of what to do. “Things are going to be different now, Y/n, but I want you by my side throughout it.” “I want the same, Ev. But you’re an agent and I’m an Avenger. Can we really make it work?” “We did for two years, darling. Why stop now when we both know that’s not what we want.”
• So that’s how you ended up moving into Everett’s small, but cozy home just days later. You promised Nat you’d be a phone call away and attend meetings via hologram whenever she needed. Everett respected your decision, you were an Avenger at heart and even if the world was on fire you were going to help. He stayed an agent and made a deal with the government to drop the charges and pursuit on you and the others. When they agreed and you were safe to live your life freely without having to look over your shoulder, you felt like you could breath again.
• Everett felt it too. The feeling was contagious and you both tried to make positive of the situation though you two were grieving the loss of several friends. You both made promises to each other, promising to always be honest and never hide even if one thinks the other wouldn’t understand. And two years later, those promises became vows with simple bands adorning your left ring fingers. “I love you, and I promise to love you forever and ever.”
• You’d cross every bridge together, solve every problem, and hope for the future. Because all though you two started as merely an agent and avenger, you became something more that even the universe couldn’t tear apart.

Chapter Text

A = Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?)

Affection and intimacy are something Everett likes to keep private. With this, don’t expect PDA—but Ev does show affection to you all the same. There’s random texts and calls through the day to see how you’re doing, he’ll have Uber eats delivered to your office or he packs it himself, and always greets you with a hug and kiss after coming home from work.

Of course when you two are at formal events and dinners, Everett introduces you with pride and love. He’s always telling people how amazing you are with any accomplishments you may have. It fills you with a warmth you’ve never felt with any of your past partners. And whenever you catch his eye across the room, there’s always a cheeky wink sent your way.

B = Best Friend (What would they be like as a best friend? How would the friendship start?)

Ev is one of those best friends where he’s so busy it’s hard to get in touch with him but then hit you up at random times. He’s also the type of best friend who will make it unintentionally make it obvious when you’re talking about someone. One time he literally turned his whole body around after you said, “don’t look behind you but ___ is—Ev!”

The friendship started because you two were either coworkers or you worked for another agency where you crossed paths. The vibes were great, and you got on well when it came to business. Then it became more frequent you two were working together and the friendship sorta happened out of nowhere.

C = Cuddles (Do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?)

When it’s been a long day or weeks on end of work, the best thing for Everett is when he comes home to your open arms and snuggling against the warmth you provide. You’ll be laying on the couch reading and he’ll plop himself on top of you while nestling his head in the crook of your neck. Then Ev will let out a sigh when he feels your fingers shift through his silver hair.

Everett also loves to hold you. The most common position when you cuddles is your back to his chest as you two lay on your sides and his arm resting around your waist, with your hand on top of his.

D = Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking and cleaning?)

Everett is a serious man who wants serious things and he’s serious about you. Settling down with you is something Ev envisioned once he realized he had feelings for you. Of course he’d hope you want the same. Moving in together was something that took place after roughly two (almost going on three) years of dating and by then you halfway already moved into his place because you’d leave stuff every time you came over. “Might as well start helping you pay rent.”

He’s a grown ass man of course he knows how to clean and cook for himself. After his divorce he had to manage on his own for the first time in awhile, but even before while married to his ex-wife Ev was very hands on and contributed. Often you would split it up where if you cooked one night then he’d clean and vice versa. Ev will even pack you lunch the night before with leftovers from dinner.

E = Ending (if they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)

He’d want you to be the one to end things. It would break his heart but considering the type of jobs you do sometimes having a relationship can get tricky. Of course Everett was devoted and cared about you—it’s why he could never bring himself to do it unless it was obvious the strain was becoming too much. If it was his way, he’d let you be the one to cut the string and break his heart because he would never want to do it to you.

F = Fiancé(e) (How do they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?)

Commitment in terms of marriage would be something you both would have discussed early on in your relationship. Everett had been married before and it didn’t work out so the last thing he’d want is for it to be the same with you. A proposal (if that was something you wanted) would happen after you two had been together for a few years maybe even longer. You guys were very comfortable where you were and didn’t force the idea of marriage.

If you do get engaged, then Everett would probably want to do it quick—especially if you guys had been together for years. At that point you two probably just decided to run up to the court house and apply for a marriage license before getting one of your close friends to witness. But don’t get it twisted, every vow Everett hung onto because you are his absolute world and he would be the best husband to you until death do you part. “You know I love you, Y/n. Everyday I’m grateful you were brought into my life, and I will make sure you know until my last breath.”

G = Gentle (How gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?)

He’s very gently with you. Everett can tell when you’re physically or emotionally exhausted and will do whatever you ask him to make it better, even if you want to simply be left alone for a few hours.

H = Hugs (do they like hugs? How often do they do it? What are their hugs like?)

You’re the only person he likes to hug honestly, besides family members but even then, he would only prefer your hugs. Hugs are common between you because Everett loves to embrace you whenever he comes home from work. They are quick but firm hugs although sometimes he’ll hold you for a few seconds if he’s in need of one.

I = I love you (how fast do they say the L-word?)

Since you two were good friends prior to your relationship, Everett would probably say it around the five-month mark. He knows how he feels about you and wants something serious. It wouldn’t take you by surprise when he says it, by then you could already feel the love from him in his actions to you. When he finally says it you smirk, catch his tie in your hands to bring him closer and say “Took you long enough, silver fox,” before kissing him passionately.

J = Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they’re jealous?)

He doesn’t like to admit it but he does get jealous. Of course he trusts you there’s no doubt about that, and it fills him with pride when some random guy is trying to hit on you but you only got your eyes on Everett. The jealousy is never to the point where it becomes a problem because he’s a grown mature man and knows better than to make a scene, but you can often tell when his bottom lip pouts out. “Babe, were you jealous of Bucky just now?” “What? No—no-uh, *coughs*, maybe.”

K = Kisses (What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?)

Kisses with Everett can best be described as one's romance authors wish they could have in their novels—though more realistic because the first time you both kissed he hit your nose with his a little too hard and it made you yelp.

Forehead. Kisses. And hand ones too. The area right by your temple is his favorite place and will press his lips softly on his way out to work or greeting you. Then when he’s driving and you’re riding passenger Everett loves to take your hand and give it a kiss while keeping his eyes on the road. When it comes to being kissed, Everett loves when you take his face in your hands and kiss him right on the lips. It always brings a smile on his face, although he also likes when you kiss his jaw as you two cuddle on the couch.

L = Little ones (how are they around children?)

Everett loves kids. He may not want to have them until his job was more stable so he could be around them more—but there’s no doubt he’d love to have kids with you. Whenever his coworkers talk about their children or bring them to team parties he’s always alert and involved when they come up to ask him questions. You know Everett would be an amazing father, so when the time came for if you both decide to have kids then you’d have nothing to worry about.

M = Morning (how are mornings spent with them?)

Both of you are early birds—even when you both have a day off you’re both accustomed to waking up around 7 or 8 o’clock. Whoever gets up first is in charge of putting the kettle or coffee pot on. Most days you’re unable to sit down and cook a nice breakfast so the go to is always a fruit with some kind of granola bar. There’s always a kiss before you both take your leave and expect a cute note from Ev in your lunch box.

N = Night (how are nights spent with them?)

Everett is a busy man so on weekdays he’ll more than likely bring work home. You’ll find him in his office and sit yourself happily in the chair he’s reserved for you with a book in hand and cup of tea. After a while when it’s nearing the late hours of the night you’ll have to drag him out so he can get some much needed sleep. “I just need to add one more thing to his—then I’ll be right up.”

Weekends are reserved for quality time. After working long hours during the week it is always planned for you two to do something nice and relaxing. You’ll catch a movie at the local theater, get takeout from your favorite restaurant and then cuddle up next to each other on the couch while watching reruns of a show you both like. And before you drift off Ev always leaves a kiss to your temple with the soft whisper of ‘I love you.’

Chapter Text

Just some random fluffy headcanons for our favorite CIA agent being domestic;

• Ross is a romantic but likes to keep that side of him private and only reserved for you. His love language would be quality time or acts of service both giving and receiving.
• Expect your lunch to be packed every morning with a cute note telling you to have a great day and that he loves you. Sometimes if he’s feeling cheeky, they will be flirty but overall his notes are pg.
• Everett knows how you like your coffee/tea/smoothie (whatever you really prefer). Not only has he taught himself how to perfect making it, but also orders it the correct way whenever he goes to a cafe to pick you one if you ask him too. “Perfect as always, my love.”
• When getting dressed in the morning, Everett lets you pick out his tie or full suit. Sometimes you do it the night before but if you forget then you’ll pick out one in a hurry. Thankfully it’s always matching, and Everett will gaze lovingly at you while you fix his tie. “Stop starting at me like that.” “But you’re just so beautiful, darling.”
• He makes it his mission to take you on a date at least every week or make it up with two in one week if he’s unable to. Work can get crazy and sometimes go overtime, but Ross will still try to get off at a reasonable hour to take you out. Sometimes it’s to dinner, or a movie, maybe even the beach if the weather. It’s always worth seeing your awe expression and being able to have a good time away from the chaos of everyday life.
• Believe it or not, Everett is a concert goer. He loves music and it’s one of the reasons you two got together was your shared love of it. Being so close to D.C you guys get some big acts so expect Everett to randomly come up to you and say, “(insert artist/group) is playing next month. You in?” “Do you even have to ask, silver-fox?”
• You guys own a dog and a cat. Adopting them both at the shelter together the animals are very close yet break out into sibling fights all the time. Your dog tends to lean toward Ev while the cat takes a liking to you. You two will go to sleep on the bed snuggled up, just the two of you, but wake up with your cat nestled on top of your pillow and your dog squeezed between you two with their head tucked in Ev’s bicep.
• You guys love to watch shows together, and often reserve days off dedicated to binge watching them. You guys got through the entirety of Game of Thrones (screw season 8), the Sopranos, The Crown, Stranger Things (which Ev loved cause his childhood was in the 80s) and caught up on Abbott Elementary. Then if it’s a show where you have to sit down every weekend for a new episode—you guys are currently on Yellowstone Sunday’s—then you two will grab take out, wine, and blankets before snuggling up on the couch to tune in. “This season is gonna be insane with John as governor.” “Yeah, Market Equities is for sure gonna be pissed and start some shit.”
• At the end of every year, you guys donate to shelters and the Salvation Army with canned goods, clothing you no longer wear, books & store-bought necessities you accumulated for the donation. Ev will often call beforehand to let them know you guys will be coming, and after so many years the workers have become your friends—they are so grateful for you two that they often wonder what makes you continue which you always say, “there’s so much evil and wrongdoing we see every day, it feels good to do something right. There are people who need these things more than us.”
• His phone contact name for you is “My world 🌎🤍” with a photo of you sticking your tongue out to the camera. The ringtone for when you call him is “Lover,” by Taylor Swift. For him, you put his name as “Pretty Boy ❤️‍🔥🧸” with his photo being a picture of him in a tux when y’all went to a banquet and he’s adjusting the cuff of his wrist. The song you chose to blast when he calls is, “Pour Some Sugar on Me,” by Def Leppard.

Chapter Text

• So if you’re an avenger/shield agent and fall in love with the silver fox that is Agent Everett Ross then there is no hiding the world of heroes from your children. After getting married/being partners for a long time you both eventually have/adopt a couple of kids and raise them in the New York/Quantico area.
• Considering they grew up with parents who were federal agents, they were likely drawn to the field of criminology, intelligence, security, etc. Or possibly were talented when it came to mechanics, math, physics. Either which way your kids were top of their classes and managed to attend some of the most prestigious schools in the county. MIT, NYU, Cornell would be knocking on y’all’s door with scholarships and grants just to have your kids attend.
• If you’re living in New York then they’d attend Midtown with Peter, MJ, and Ned. Of course, with Peter being Spider-Man and knowing you, there’s a chance your kids knew his secret before the others. Hell, wouldn’t be surprised if Peter may have fanboyed when he learned that you were the parent of his friends. “That’s so cool your parents are agents—and one is an avenger!” “Only thing that sucks about it is I can never hide anything. Bad grades, relationships, sneaking out at night. They’ll always know.”
• I can see you having a daughter who was like Everett with passions for intelligence. She’d come to his office just to watch him work and get a feel of what it was like to be an agent. When it came to intuition, she was a natural at catching when something was suspicious. She was also great at analyzing—whether it be data, a crime scene, or body language.
• Your son would have interests similar to you—wanting to be in the field or creating inventions that gave him abilities. He was very hands on, loved working on cars or building things from scratch. Don’t be surprised if he noted Bruce Banner or Tony Stark as his idols.
• If your kids were into sports you’d go to every game. If they loved the arts you went to every performance, gallery, recital. Sometimes you’d be running late because of work, but you always made it up to them by taking them out to dinner or ice cream to get that quality time in. It was hard being a superhero and raising children, but with Ev by your side you both were able to put a healthy balance on things.
• Early on your children were taught self-defense. Boxing, marital arts, how to disarm someone, and everything in between that would help them kick someone’s ass if they were attacked. Being that you and Everett’s jobs come with enemies there is always that risk they would target your kids. “You must be quick and sharp—anything less will give them the advantage.” “You know,” *catches breath* “This is really some parent-child bonding you got going on.” “Quality time, training, and life lessons all wrapped into one. Ain’t that something.”
• When the topic of your kids joining the Young Avengers arose, you both were very hesitant. They were in college or about to graduate and your daughter had even applied for the CIA with your son building a prototype suit. It got the attention of a lot of people, and you were already dealing with the stress of the Thunderbolts forming. “They are kids, Everett! They cannot handle the things we see—at least not yet!” “Believe me, honey, I agree with you. But they are technically adults and it’s not like they’ll be alone. They want us, Sam, Strange, Carol and Okoye to supervise them.” It did little to ease your worry, but at least you’d have some say in the matters.
• No longer were you and Ev just their parents, but also their bosses. You both had control along with the other Avengers over whether or not the Young Avengers would get involved in conflicts. First thing that took place of course was months of training and teaching the kids (even if they were adults, you still looked at them as kids) what and what not to do in a situation. Last thing y’all wanted was another Accords scenario.
• “C’mon send us out! We can help you guys!” “You know the deal—once you pass your field exams then you can do missions. Until then you’re grounded here.”
• “If Hydra’s been behind it the whole time, then does that mean you guys didn’t check to see that you got them all in 2015?” “Honey, please, do not remind me because I’ll only get angry—not at you but at the situation. I need to have a word with Fury on what the hell went wrong.”
• While you may be strict with the Young Avengers, best believe if someone insulted, attacked, or patronizing toward them you’d go ape shit. Oh and if Secretary Ross were to try something….Let’s just say Everett once had to pull you back from doing something that would’ve had you arrested. “He doesn’t have the right to get involved in what they do—or threaten them with prison after they saved the world!” “And don’t give him the satisfaction of locking you up, Y/n. You know he’s waiting for us to step out of line.”
• If there is one thing the government realized quick when you and Everett decided to expand the Ross’ legacy, is to never underestimate a family full of heroes.

Chapter Text

• How the heathens managed to find y’all is a mystery of its own. You don’t know how to react first: with praise or with anger.
• To paint the picture, you and Ross are undercover in a conjoined mission between the Avengers & CIA. The target in question is someone suspected of harboring a fugitive with intel of the super soldier serum created in Madripoor. After Sam and Bucky had settled the issue in New York, you both were sent to recover the fugitive in a manner lowkey as possible.
• What neither you--nor your agencies--could prepare for was your children tracking y'all down.
• You may be an Avenger (highly skilled and known to put fear in God themself) but at the end of the day you’re a parent first. So, it is no surprise when you lose your shit on the children who infiltrated the highly classified mission you and your husband were on. "I don't want to hear it." "But we just thought--." "And now I have to hear it."
• Like you, Everett was very displeased and had to hold his tongue. You already unleashed your wrath he felt maybe it was a good idea to calm the situation than escalate it further by grilling them. He did, however, make his frustration and disappointment known, "We raised you to know better. What the hell were you thinking?! This is not only dangerous, but illegal!"
• Your daughter, who you both know had interest in working for Intelligence, immediately went into explanation mode. The excuse they gave--besides missing y'all and worrying about you both not coming home---was that she and her brother could help in the undercover mission. "How exactly do you plan to do that? You haven't even finished high school." "No, but we're already your kids. How hard is it to play the role of a family?"
• For your son, he had always wanted to test out the gadgets he'd made. This was his opportunity, but your concern was someone getting hurt since they had not been tested in a concealed environment. Ross agreed, which only had your son pouting. "But dad, think of how useful they can be?" "Son, we're already expecting to go to jail for even considering letting you both help...but we will be sent to the Raft for allowing you to use those when they have not been approved by the Director."
• Several times during the mission you about lost it when your daughter or son scurried off. They'd return with new information, completely shocking you both wondering just how the hell they managed to get it. "Where did you hear this?" "That man told the guy beside him. I pretended to read my book and sat at the table right next to them. They didn't pay me any mind."
• At one point you did receive a message from Fury asking why his sources are telling him your son was spotted at y'alls location to which you played dumb and prayed he'd dismiss it. Which he did....cause Fury just wants the job done by any means necessary.
• Eventually, after several minutes of going back and forth and deciding not to strangle your kids for being so irresponsible, you eventually agree to their plan. This decision of course came with some ground rules. "You will do as we say--and do not act without permission. The second you do something that results in either of you getting hurt, I will personally be calling the U.S military to get your asses out of here." "Yes ma'am/sir"
• By some grace of God, the mission was a success. No one, thankfully, was hurt--except for the associates of the man you and Ross were looking for in a hand-to-hand battle that left your kids speechless from their hiding space. The suspect was contained and transported to the Embassy, you and Ross collected your children and had a dinner involving take out and sodas.
• The adrenaline your children experienced was enough to confirm that both wanted to pursue careers in espionage and intelligence. Something you and Everett were concerned about initially, but after seeing them and realizing they were equipped the skills needed to be successful agents/spies, you both accepted the inevitable.
• "We did good, didn't we honey?" Ross kissed your temple, clicking his glass with yours as you leaned into his side from your spot watching your kids reenact the fight between you and the bad guys. "We sure did. Who would've thought we'd become a family of spies after all?"

Chapter Text

Being an Avenger with the power to teleport during the events of Doomsday & becoming best friends with Peter Parker, Johnny Storm, and Billy Maximoff would look like:

• As you can imagine, you four together are absolute chaos. Picture this: following an accident in your college lab in which you were exposed to godly levels of radiation, you gained the power to teleport to and from any place you put your mind to. Thinking about a shopping day in Paris? Blip. See a show at the Sydney Opera House? Blip. Hibachi in Tokyo? Blip.
• You got under Sam's radar when he and Bucky were dealing with rogue super soldiers--Sharon Carter being the one to inform Sam of your ability as you had been hiding out in Madripoor from your home country's government. Sam recruited you with promise of protection if you helped them and you agreed. From then on you became an ally of Sam as he took on the mantle of Captain America and aided him in missions.
• It's no surprise that you become involved when Doctor Doom arrives to do what supervillains do--you know, try to destroy the universe--even though Sam is hesitant. This time around the Avengers find themselves with a much...younger bunch of heroes than what they're accustomed to, therefore stakes are high, and the older Avengers are often reminded just how young some of you are.

• "So, what's your story, blondie?" "I can set myself of fire and fly. You?" "Teleportation." "Ah...so that's why they call you blip."
• "I'm feeling really optimistic about this." "How can you be optimistic about us having no plan?" "Hey, Spider, at least magic man has hope for us." "I second that."
• Peter Parker already knew what to expect when it came to a multiversal, planet extinction, genocidal maniac level threat. Now add a chaos magic wielding reincarnated son of the Scarlet Witch, Billy Maximoff, and a flying, fire infused, fantastic Disney prince looking Johnny Storm and the four of you become a team within the team. Gaining a bond long after defeating Doom and going back to your regularly scheduled lives.
• There's no question, you guys give your fellow Avengers headaches even when there is no mission and the risk of lives at stake. Y'all are the life of the party and during functions you can expect there to never be a dull moment. For example, the dance floor could be dead but the second you four step on it becomes a vibe. You'll form a mini circle which then gets bigger as the others join in. "Go Billy! Go Billy!" "Peter! Throw it in a circle and let Johnny catch it!"
• You guys have movie and game nights pretty much every weekend--except when you have to save the world--where you set up Switch games or pull out a classic board game while a movie plays on the tv. It gets intense when y'all play Mario Kart and Smash Bros because then all goes out the door seeing as all of you are competitive. "Who the fuck just cut me off!? Which one of you is baby Luigi?" "Not me blip--I'm Yoshi." "It's Wiccan! He just threw a shell at me!" "Shut up, Peter!"
• "Damn it, Blip--will you let me breathe here!?" "Not a chance, Spider." "Stop throwing fire balls at me, Johnny!" "Then stop pushing me off the cliff!"
• Whenever one of y'all has a problem there will be a group meeting to discuss. Whether it's relationship advice, family drama, a new enemy emerging, etc., you have each other's back. It becomes easier to gather everyone when you guys decide to share an apartment at Avengers campus or rent one in the city. "I call this meeting to order and ask that you wait until all details have been relayed before speaking." "Sir/ma'am, yes, sir/ma'am." "Okay, there's this guy/girl..." "WHO!!?!!"
• You guys have nicknames/inside jokes for each other that are different from your superhero aliases and are likely y'alls contact names. Johnny is Ken because he looks and acts like a real-life Ken Doll. Billy is Billie Eilish--which must I say more? He gives off major Billie Eilish energy. Peter is Umbrella because he's obsessed with the Rihanna song and blasts it whenever he's going through a mood. And you are Lemon Drop after drinking one too many lemon drop martinis at a gala and they had to take care of you.
• Your group chat name is The Fabulous (Chaotic) Four (Johnny's idea) and the group photo is Bucky Barnes holding up Doom's helmet with Sam's goggles on and a thumbs up. You change it though whenever it's someone's birthday. On Peter's it's his meet & greet photo with Rihanna when he went to her concert. On Johnny's it's him in his space suit flipping off the camera. On yours it's a selfie you took at the top of the Statue of Liberty dressed as the Statue of Liberty. And on Billy's it's him at a rave wearing light up glasses with his tongue sticking out.
• And because you guys are all superheroes with powers, you take advantage of it. During the harsh winters you all practically cling to Johnny who radiates heat like the sun. Whenever you want to take a trip anywhere without informing the rest of the Avengers your teleportation comes in handy. Billy will use his magic to fix anything in the apartment and cook complex meals for you guys since he can have multiple things going at once. And Peter has his spider-senses to alert you all if something is happening in the area.
• Y'all miss each other whenever one of you has to leave for a mission without them. Sam calls for you often, Johnny has the Fantastic Four, Billy will sometimes disappear doing God knows what and Peter still devotes himself to being the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man in the city. It feels like a piece is missing from your little pie whenever someone is gone, but don't worry once Y'all are back together it's like no one left.
• Something y'all would be tempted to --and highly advised not to- have a YouTube channel where you post vlogs and videos of random shit. You'd post videos like, "Teleporting to Ibiza for the day because I can," while the boys tend to film in the middle of a mission, "Today we're gonna take you guys on an adventure as we investigate the odd occurrences happening in New York." "When is there not odd things happening in New York?" "Touché"-- "I'm not going to say it again, turn that camera off!!"

Chapter Text

Being an Agent of MIB and dating Loki would look like:

• The two of you becoming a thing was a one in a million chance--literally. You're not really supposed to have interpersonal relationships as part of the MIB but thanks to the exposure of aliens because Loki invaded New York in 2012, the MIB had to completely reconstruct their whole organization. Now instead of hiding humanity from life outside of Earth, you embrace it. And work closely with government agencies to stop intergalactic threats.
• You still neuralyze of course as certain times come with certain measures, however, it's more for safety precautions--and if they really saw something they shouldn't have.
• Obviously you and Loki were initially introduced during the mayhem of New York after he was apprehended by the Avengers. The MIB were called in to assist with damage control, and you being one of the top agents since joining ten years prior were ordered to lead the cleanup. That's when Loki caught sight of you, piqued with interest as he was first drawn to your crisp black suit & tie and the fact you were wearing sunglasses inside.
• Many citizens were having a difficult time post-invasion, so--with their consent--you preformed the 'eye-exam' to wipe their memories. "Alright everyone, if you could please draw your attention to my little device here, you'll find all that you're looking for in this red light." Loki watched with absolute amazement as a bright flash filled the room and the people in front of you were overcome with a dazed expression. "Perfect, now you've been spared from remembering the worst of what took place this morning and I recommend you seek professional assistance as you navigate through this new reality of your life."
• He was smitten to say the least and wanted to know more about you. Thankfully the Avengers and Asgard worked out a deal where he got to stay in New York under his brothers' supervision that Loki had the ability to pursue you.
• He'll accompany you on patrols, decked in his own suit (all black) and will ask to be the one who nueralyzes. "Please, darling, you always get to do the flashy thingy." "Because it's my job, Loki. You don't have authorization." "Well then give me authorization."
• Often your dates end with one of you being called by your respective superiors to deal with an issue. Whether it's in the middle of a romantic dinner or a night in cuddled on the couch duty eventually calls.
• You guys steal each other's suits when you're in a rush to the point you can't tell whose blazer or tie you're wearing. One time you attended one of Tony's parties and realized you guys had mixed up some clothing. "Is that my belt?" "Is that my tie?"
• When Loki first introduced you to his brother and teammates, they were confused by the fact you went by an initial rather than a name. "So wait, you don't go by anything other than Y/I? Why is that?" "Yup. Over at MIB we completely erase the identity of our agents--because we're supposed to be an anonymity." It took them awhile to get used to calling you Y/I but eventually it became second nature.
• Loki is the only person who knows your full name--and your life before MIB. He doesn't call you by name in public for privacy reasons of course, and because you technically are breaking rules by telling him.
• If you have long days at the office, Loki will come to MIB headquarters to bring you your favorite beverage and drop off dinner. It also gives him the excuse to see HQ as he was amazed by all that went into the once former secret agency. Well technically MIB is still a secret organization to the public, the government still kept them under the radar.
• And at some point down the line after you two have celebrated a few years together and Loki no longer desires the hero/anti-hero life, he decides to join the MIB officially. Becoming your ultimate partner in life 🩶

Chapter Text

• Johnny and the Fantastic Four had resecured you from the organization you'd been kidnapped and experimented on where you were injected with their own attempt at the super soldier serum. Having been the only successful asset, you were highly valuable to them and forced to do their bidding. That's how the FF stumbled upon you and worked to put an end to the organization. From there you were an associate of the FF and remained at Baxter Building alongside them.
• The relationship between you and Johnny progressed following months of flirting, lingering glances, saving each other from psychos, etc. The Four were betting on how long it would take before one of you caved in and asked the other out. Sue won, naturally.
• First of all, Johnny is amazed by you. Everything about you really is captivating to him but he is just so attracted by the fact you can stop a speeding car with your bare hands, casually throw him and others over your shoulder, and take on Ben in a sparring match.
• You're the first person the Four go to when they need help moving something 💀 "Y/n, could you please lift the couch for me while I vacuum?" "I need this machine next to this one if you don't mind." Even Ben is coming to you for assistance when he's working on the car and will have you lift the vehicle so he can slide underneath.
• Along with super strength you also have super reflexes. Johnny loves how you don't even have to look at him to know he tripped passing by you and you're instantly reaching to grab the back of his t-shirt to pull him upright. He'll get all flustered, look at you like you're the embodiment of a God/Goddess and go, "You're so hot, you know that?" "That's very flattering coming from the man made of pure fire."
• You two are the life of the party at events. Johnny will show off his flames and you'll display your strength---sometimes lifting Johnny on your shoulders which causes people to stop and stare in amazement.
• During missions you'll tag team--him usually in the skies while you cover the ground. Then when you get cornered at a dead-end and need to break through an opened window he'll be like, "Wanna give me a boost, babe?" as if he needs one but you'll squat anyway with your fingers interlaced for him to push off of.
• Johnny will watch you work out even if you don't need a spotter. Placing more weights as you bench press, timing your sprints, replacing the punching bag when you send it off its hinges. And when he's feeling naughty Johnny will sit his perky ass on your back as you do pushups while counting as you go. Or he'll lay his whole body as you plank, trying to distract you with cheeky kisses to your neck and shoulder. "Baby, I'm sweating and gross, can you not?"
• When Johnny says he loves your strength, he loves it. Especially when you two are making out and your hand comes up to the base of his throat. It'll make all the blood rush down and heat rise as you teasingly grip him as an act of showing how strong you are even in the most vulnerable moments. Of course he knows you'd never intentionally hurt him but just knowing you can roughhouse him turns him on so bad. "Do that again." "Oh Johnny, Johnny, Johnny. You have no idea what power you've given me."
• Speaking of roughhousing he fucking loves when you take control by pushing him against the wall, door, bookshelf, whatever flat surface you can find. Like the hand on his throat it gets him all hot and bothered. Once he's had enough of the teasing he'll display his strength by picking you up and throwing you on the bed.

Chapter Text

Being in a relationship with Zemo would look like:

• The man spoils you, to the point it's kinda suffocating. Considering this man is rich you can expect extravagant gifts on birthdays, anniversaries, and whenever he sees something and thinks of you. It doesn't have to be an occasion for Zemo to spend his bottomless pit of coin on you. 
• Date night involving a dinner doesn't exactly mean you guys have to go out. This man can cook. He'll present you with the most gourmet meal you've ever seen, paired with a wine likely the cost of your life insurance plan, with candles lit and music flowing from the record player. "You've out done yourself once again, Helmut. It seems like I'm saying that every time we have dinner." "Well, darling, I only ensure the best for my love."
• Zemo has several homes throughout the damn planet, so if you're ever feeling a change of scenery all you have to do is pick where you want to go. Paris, England, Rio, Sydney, Moscow, Los Angeles, Morocco, etc. You name it, Zemo has property there. You'll stay for weeks, maybe months, and sometimes if you like one more than the others, you'll live there for a few years and then move when the time feels right.....or when Zemo breaks the law again and now, you're on the run. 
• You're the type of couple people stop and stare at. Zemo wouldn't consider himself a fashionista, but he likes to dress nice for any occasion--even grocery shopping--and that rubbed off on you. Often you'll be walking down the street and notice in your peripheral vision people pointing you out to their friends and admiring you guys from afar. "People are staring again." "Of course they are. They cannot believe they are seeing a living God/Goddess among them." 
• If you have animals, it'll probably be a cat. Zemo gives off cat energy more so than dog and he'd be the type of cat person who says he dislike cats but then falls in love with one and it changes his perspective. How came to have cat likely was you feeding the neighborhood stray and taking it in, ignoring Zemo's refusal but then you catch him putting tuna on a plate and bringing home flea medicine.
• Your house is covered in artwork because Zemo is a collector. There's not a single wall that is not straight out of a museum. Monet's, Picasso's, etc. Paintings and sculptures. If you ever wanted to make an exhibit in your house and have people pay to see it, you could for sure do it. 
• When you have movie nights, it's basically you two analyzing every single detail and having a full-on discussion rather than watching the film. Especially if it's movies you've already seen and are rewatching. Zemo can't shut up, and you shove popcorn in your mouth while he vents about how stupid the main character was or how plot lacked consistency. If Zemo really liked a film, he'll actually shut up because he doesn't have anything to say. 
• His love languages are acts of service and quality time. And you can add gifts into the mix because he loves to give you gifts. 
• You two play chess a lot--It's one of the ways you have quality time together. Zemo is a master at chess and while you were weak in the beginning you quickly became a master yourself and now you two have matches lasting hours. 
• Zemo has a photo album dedicated to you of all your dates and trips or special moments you shared. All taken on a film camera because while he does have hundreds of pictures of you on his phone, there's something personal and intimidate in capturing the beauty of you on film. 
• You have matching jewelry you both wear and hardly ever take off. If you're married, of course you have the rings but even then, you both have matching bracelets or necklaces. It's probably got your names or initials engraved or has your birthstones. 

Chapter Text

Being in a relationship with Sam Wilson/Captain America would look like:

• Sam is a very attentive partner. He makes sure your needs are met and that you never have to question his feelings toward you. Whether that be communicating it in words, or showing you through actions, you feel Sam's love every second of every day. 
• It's not always easy being the partner of Captain America and you knew that going into the relationship. Sometimes you have to sacrifice a date or redirect a planned occasion for an anniversary because the fate of the world is at stake. But Sam always makes it up to you, and who are you to turn down an all-paid trip by the government as a thank you to your superhero love. "Baby, I know I missed your birthday because of aliens invading, but how do you feel about spending the next two weeks in Bora Bora?" "You won't be on call will you?" "No, the others will handle any shit that goes down while we're gone." "I'll go pack."
• During football season you can bet your house is the place to be when the Saints are playing. Sam will get the barbeque going and you'll be in charge of the side. Bucky will supply the alcohol, because even though he's a Giants fan he still is y'all's best friend and he never misses a Wilson Family Party.  You can also expect the Saints to give you two season tickets to their home games and field access. Sam is like a little kid the first time you guys are invited--you even have a video on your phone of him and his nephews 'scoring' a touchdown. 
• We know Sam is a big fan of Marvin Gaye and Sunday nights are spent cuddling on the couch to watch a movie before eventually Sam puts on a record and brings you to the middle of the living room floor to dance. You'll be giggling into his chest as he spins you in the air, dipping back to kiss your lips, and being in your own little world. "Did I tell you Steve loved this album after I recommended it to him? I knew he'd like it. Bucky didn't--can you believe that shit?" 
• You sometimes have to force Sam to go to bed because he tends to work late at nights. Tracing one last lead, responding to one more email. It worries you when he pushes himself to the limits and therefor you have to smack some sense into him every once in a while. "Baby, you won't be able to save America if you drain yourself like this. You need to rest--I promise you that can wait till the morning." 
• Joaquin Torres is basically your adopted child. He is constantly over at your house, eating your food, watching a sports game with Sam or staying over because the two were working on a mission and lost track of time. You adore the kid (he's literally in his late 20s), and love that Sam has someone out there looking out for him. With Bucky off with the Thunderbolts, Steve retired, and the Avengers still yet to come together, Sam needs a wingman--and Joaquin is someone he'd risk his life for. 
• You are close with Isiah Bradley and send him holiday cards every year as well as on his birthday. Whenever you and Sam are on the East Coast you make time to visit Isiah and his grandson in Baltimore. When the Ravens and Saints play against each other there's gonna be some playful rivalry between y'all. And when the Ravens win, Sam receives a "Better luck next time," text with a raven gif (which you taught Isiah how to send). 
• His love languages are acts of service (are we surprised) and words of affirmation. These can both be applied to giving and receiving, because yes Sam knows how to give a great pep talk to those who need it, but also he needs some affirmation as well. Whenever he's feeling down or starts doubting himself, you're right there to remind him that he is what the world needs. He is Captain America.
• Let's face it, you and Sam are the life of the party when there's an event. If there's a dancefloor and a DJ, you two are running there the second your favorite songs start playing and it's causing the rest of the guests to form a circle around you two. You're hyping each other up, dancing like maniacs, and don't give a damn about what others think. But you will see a "Captain America throws it down on dancefloor with partner," headline on the news the next day and you guys are trending on all social media platforms. 
• Sam never keeps secrets from you about his job. He knows better than try to hide things from you especially if his life is in danger or you are a potential target. After the Accords fiasco, where you literally ripped him a new one for getting sent to the Raft, he would rather face Thanos again with all six infinity stones than face you at your wrath. "If you ever pull that shit again, Sam Wilson, it's not the government you'll need to worry about coming after you ass."  Yeah, he's taking that risk. 
• Every weekend you guys take the boat out and will have a picnic while you see if you catch anything. Sometimes the boys will join you, other times it's just the two of you. You'll bring a speaker to play music and enjoy the peacefulness of the open water---a rare feat as Sam's life now that he's Captain America is always constant action. It pains him to leave you for long periods of time, but coming back and having moments as simple as catching fish in his family's boat, that's what he looks forward to the most.

Chapter Text

Being the partner of Johnny Storm would look like:

• Romance. Absolute romance that makes your heart swell like a balloon, volcanic level heat in your stomach, and have you screaming to the world you're in love. Johnny ensures you never have to claim your spark is dimming because he ignites the flame every second of every day. Flowers on your nightstand, love notes in your lunchbox, warm baths drawn after a long day of work, and holding you so close you practically mold to his form.
• Johnny comes to you for advice or to check calculations for approval before moving forward on a project. He values your opinion and if something feels off on your end, he's not the type of person who will dismiss it because he believes it's his way or the highway. You're a team after all. "Honey, does this make sense to you or fuck everything up?" 
• He's a cheeky bastard. You knew this going into the relationship that there would never be a dull moment and Johnny constantly attempts to swoon you or get under your skin at an inappropriate time. Playing footsies under the table during a press conference. Winking and blowing kisses when you're giving a presentation. When he gets bold, for example, you'll be in the middle of discussing something with his sister and the man will latch himself onto you from behind like a damn koala. "Johnny, I'm busy. Now is not the time."  Then he'll grumble and lightly pinch your hip or slap your butt as he departs causing you and Sue to shake your head at his antics. 
• During breakfast you guys like to complete the daily crossword in the newspaper. Most days you do it together leisurely. Nursing your coffee/tea and filling in the blanks in between bites of food. But because you two are competitive, it becomes a competition on days where you'll grab two newspapers so you can each have your own and race to see who completes it the fastest. 
• On quiet nights where you both are not in the mood to talk per say, but still desire quality time, you'll both pick out a book from your immense collection and sit on opposite ends on the couch to read. Johnny will make tea or grab a bottle of wine for you to share with a snack plate of cheese, fruits, and meats or crackers. Then when it's time to head to bed after a few hours of reading, you'll have discussions about the book as you change into your night clothes and settle into the mattress. 
• Expect jazz music to be playing on the record player when Johnny beats you home or when you two take your day off to clean the apartment. And when you do clean together, it only lasts an hour before Johnny is pulling you into his arms to dance. "Baby, we are never going to get anything done if we keep this up," You'll playfully scold with a smile, not moving to escape his hold by continuing to sway along to the beat. Johnny will chuckle, pulling you closer as he presses a soft kiss to your forehead, "A few more minutes, darling, then we'll get back to work. We hardly get to do this so let's enjoy it while it lasts." 
• Johnny has to have some part of his body touching you while you sleep at night. His foot on your leg, head nestled in the crook of your neck and shoulder, or your pinkies entwined, skin and skin contact of any sort is a necessity for him to sleep through the night. It makes him feel safe and secure, knowing you're right there and no one has broken in to take you. 
• You both have a dog and a cat. A golden retriever and an orange cat to be specific because let's be honest, Johnny has both golden retriever and orange cat energy. Put them together and you've got your hands full. And boy do those animals love him and vice versa. No doubt Johnny has multiple photos of you on his work desk, but you're competing against the shrine of photos he has of your pets. You joke about being envious the two have a bigger place in his heart, but c'mon, you cannot help the eruption of love that fills you when you enter the bedroom to find your man taking a nap with the dog cuddled in his arms and the cat lying on top of his head. 
• There's an unfinished puzzle in the living room that slowly makes progress every day. Anytime you or Johnny get a free moment to sit down and rest, you'll work to get several pieces done and then return to it at a later time. "That's 500 down, 500 to go?" 

Chapter Text

Flirting with Johnny Storm would look like:

• Constant banter that sometimes has people wondering if you are genuinely flirting with each other or offering light insults to get under their skin. It's always the former, but where's the fun in a little teasing. "Sweetheart, you're killing me here. Please spare me the suffering and just help me out, would ya?" "Oh but I like watching you suffer." 
• Light touches that send chills up your spine and warmth through your chest. Fingers brushing, tucking hair behind the ears. Mouths so close that when you speak you're practically kissing. 
• The others are so used to you two that when the flirting begins they just ignore it or send each other looks that read, "Here they go again." 
• "Y/n, is it hot in here or is it just me? Oh wait, it is me."
• "Johnny, as much as I love your eyes on me, if you could please redirect them to the screen and pay attention." "But the view of you is so much better." 
• You'll catch him checking himself out in the mirror and can't help but wolf whistle causing his cheeks to flare red. 
• When you walk into a room he'll go, "mmmhhhmmmm," while unapologetically looking you up and down.
• Whoever wakes up first usually is the one who packs lunch and leaves a flirty note that will either be cutesy or borderline suggestive. "No star in the night sky shines brighter than you. - J 🩶" "Can't wait for you to warm me up tonight 😉 - Y/I " 

Chapter Text

Zemo befriending a former Avenger would include:

• You two were not exactly ‘besties’ when y’all first met. Mostly because Zemo hates avengers/enhanced beings, and you were still pissed about what happened during the whole civil war fiasco between your friends.
• So when Bucky and Sam call you up during your much needed vacation/retirement, you were not pleased to say the least. “Y/N, please we wouldn’t ask if we were confident we could do this alone. We need you.” “And I need peace and quiet along with a very large margarita.”
• It’s safe to say you didn’t win that argument, because three hours later you’re flying to Berlin unaware of what lies ahead. Sam and Bucky never imagined they would have to step in front of Zemo to protect him from your wrath, but there’s always a first for everything.
• “Dammit, Y/N! Calm down!” “You both are about to have my foot up your ass for your sheer stupidity!” “Maybe we should all take a deep–.” “You shut the fuck, Zemo. Don’t think you’re getting out of it what I have planned for you.”
• The tension on the plane to Madripoor was something you never experienced in all your years as an avenger. Well, former avenger—you were technically retired and only came to help because you promised Steve you’d look out for Bucky and Sam. The man was the avenger you were closest too, and despite a short term falling out after the Accords, you remained close after the first fiasco with Thanos.
• The entire time you ignore the conversations happening around you, and you’d be lying you said you didn’t find Bucky threatening Zemo in a chokehold amusing. He didn’t appreciate the sound of your laughter.
• Hearing you all would be traveling to Madripoor filled you with dread. As a former SHIELD agent, you were tasked on many undercover operations stationed on the island and your reputation would not give you a warm welcome. Zemo of course already knew this, so he made sure there was a wig, outfit, and sunglasses for you on the plane.
• You wouldn’t admit it to his face, but you appreciated the gesture. Otherwise you would’ve been shot on sight the moment you stepped off the plane.
• All hell brakes loose because Sam’s dumbass forgot to put his phone on silent. “Oh no you don’t you little fucker,” you muttered when you caught Zemo running in the other direction away from the others during a street ambush. You tagged with him, and nearly tackled him down but instead pushed him into a wall.
• Of course he looked displeased at the action, but the ringing of bullets around you both had him push you to the ground and lay beside you. Cursing under your breath, you reached to your thigh holsters on either side. “You have a gun, Baron?” “No they wouldn’t allow me one.” “Not surprised.” *Hands over pistol making him confused* “You watch my six and I watch yours?” *nods* “Good, let’s get to work.”
• There seemed to be an understanding between the two of you after that. You wouldn’t call it the start of a friendship, no, you still despise his guts. But you at least respect him a small ounce given he saved your life during the ambush when you weren’t paying attention. Zemo is the same. You were an avenger at one point so he holds some form of animosity toward you, but he might hate you less than your other companions.
• At Sharon’s place, you mostly stuck around Sam nursing a cocktail while scouting the place. Your drink was delicious, however not when you choke on it after seeing Zemo busting it up on the dance floor. The man is so out of place. I mean his moves are not what one would with the type of music and environment.
• Nearly dying from second hand embarrassment—and feeling groovy after three or four drinks—you find yourself stalking over to the Baron, surprising him. “Please tell me you’ve got moves better than this?” “What you don’t like them?” “I don’t think anyone could, Zemo. Look around you.” “Why don’t you show me then how it works.” “Is that a challenge, buddy.”
• Needless to say, you were thankful Sam and Bucky could not see you cause you were lost in the sauce one upping this man and he sure as hell was having fun watching you do it.
• At the shipping docks you two once again watched each other’s six. Were you surprised when Zemo shot Niagel point blank in the head? No. But you wish he could’ve warned you or gave a hint. Again, you chased after him when he disappeared. “Why are you always the one following after me?” “Because trouble tends to leave a trail behind you, Baron.”
• When he picks up the car, you take dibs on the front—not wanting to hear the two men argue about moving the seat up. However you fall victim to it. “I can’t move the damn seat up, Sam. This car has the front connected together, for God’s sake.”
• In Riga, when Bucky is off taking a walk and Sam is making a call leaving you alone with Zemo, the two of you get to talking. At first you put up your defenses, but slowly the conversation flows. You start talking about your military experience before becoming an avenger, and he asks questions given he was once a colonel for the Sokovian armed forces. You ask about his background before 2016, and when the conversation about the bombing comes up—although he was reluctant about some details, he eventually tells you more about why he did what he did.
• You apologize for what happened to his family, having been in Sokovia when Ultron occurred. You retired soon after, feeling guilty and resentful of how the Avengers handled the aftermath which is why you were somewhat a supporter of the Accords. You know apology does nothing to change the past, but Zemo is grateful for it all the same—since you’re the only one to ever publicly voice one following the destruction of his country.
• This forms a more mutual respect between you two, and it throws Bucky and Sam off a bit when they find you two still talking and bonding hours later before they head out to scout for leads. You were with Zemo when he approached the children, and when he was given the information he actually told you right away.
• For Bucky and Sam though, well…RIP to that teacup.
• More chaos and unplanned circumstances take place including having to deal with wannabe Cap and his sidekick, fighting supersoldiers and facing the Dora Milaje. Although it was very entertaining watching them wipe John Walker with the floor. “Y/N please help us.” “Eh, it looks like you boys have it handled.”
• All the while you fail to notice Zemo slipped away in the bathroom. Once the fighting seizes, you and the two figure out a plan to search for him, but it gets interrupted when Karli calls Sam’s sister. You’re starting to really have it with this chick, and when another fight takes place against her and her entourage, you unleash everything you’ve got. However it all comes to a stand still when Hopkins is accidentally killed, and Walker murders one of the flagsmashers in public.
• After a three-on-one battle between him, you leave with a broken nose, cut temple and bruised ribs—forgetting the asshole took the serum behind y’all’s back. You join Bucky to find Zemo, realizing he had gone back to where Sokovia once stood and the memorial was located.
• As a peaceful gesture, you bring a small bouquet of flowers. Zemo didn’t notice you at first because he had been facing Bucky and you walked up behind him. Bucky had the gun, but you knew it was empty and a tactic against Zemo which is why you don’t stop him. Zemo turns just as you finish placing the bouquet down, and his expression becomes concerned by your injuring.
• “What happened, Y/N?” “After you’re little escape, we had a run in with Walker—who you will be displeased to know has taken the serum.” The news of this angers the Baron, believing he had destroyed all the vials. “I am sorry, I thought I got them all—are you alright?” “Eh, you should see how he looks.”
• The thanks you for leaving the flowers which you tell him, “It’s the least I could do.” It’s only a second later you three spot the Dora Milaje approaching and Zemo’s expression tightens—though understanding what comes next. “I guess this is goodbye then.” “Try to stay out of trouble, Baron. Then just maybe you could see yourself with at least one friend in the future.”
• A genuine smile forms on his face, liking the idea and he sticks out his hand to you. You shake it and watch as he says a few last words to Bucky before being led to the aircraft by Aro and the other Wakandans.
• It’s not till after everything comes to a conclusion in New York that Zemo receives a small letter. He was confused, not expecting anything addressed to him and specifically told Oeznik to not contact him once he completes his task. Plus he had already heard on the radio the man was successful.
• He opened the letter, unfolding it and when his eyes read over the neatly cursive words, the Baron’s face broke out in a grin. “I thought I told you to stay out of trouble, Baron.”
• Needless to say, a unlikely friendship was born.

Chapter Text

Valentine’s Day with Baron Zemo would include:

• This man is rich as fuck so you will be bombarded with gifts. Cartier? Got you everything from their latest collection. Tiffany’s? Blue boxes everywhere. And Zemos bank account barely deducts with the amount he has. The fact it’s Valentine’s Day gives him the excuse to spoil you—plus let's be honest, gift giving is his love language.
• “Helmut, I told you to not spend so much money this year—a card would’ve been enough.” “This is my way of showing you how much I love you, Liebling.”
• Material things are nice and all, but you love the small moments. Like how Zemo brought you cherry blossom tea the moment you awoke and gave you a cute card telling you how much he loved you and was lucky to have you in his life. You immediately placed the card on your nightstand next to his picture so you could look at it before you went to bed that night.
• He’s a devoted lover, you are well aware of this—so it isn’t a surprise when a box containing a certain garment was placed on your bed with a note reading, “for when the night calls for its end. ♥️”
• You were in for a treat.
• Forehead and cheek kisses are absolute—soft but affectionate that leave your heart fluttering with butterflies. Of course he gave you some smooches on the lips, which combined with his lust filled eyes made you nervous with what he had planned that night.
• Zemo didn’t expect anything from you as a gift—honestly telling you to not bother because your company was all he needed. But you were stubborn and felt he needed to be spoiled as well, so you got him some flowers—which surprised him while making his heart melt—and a limited-edition copy of his favorite book.
• “Thank you my love, this is so thoughtful of you and I will cherish it forever.”
• During the day you two decided to make lunch—well Zemo made it and you were the taste tester—while watching some movie you honestly barely paid attention too because neither of you could keep your eyes off each other. “I thought we were supposed to be watching the movie, Helmut.” “Why I would I watch this when you are far more interesting to look at.”
• At one point Zemo turned the movie off and pulled you from the couch to dance to some music he played. It was a random playlist with old songs including ‘Be My Baby’ and ‘Moon River’. You two spun around whenever the song was upbeat, giggling like crazy—and swayed close in each other's arms during the slow songs.
• Zemo took you out to a nice dinner at a five-star restaurant—his eyes widening at how glorious you looked dressed to the nines. You looked like you belonged on a throne. “My darling, you look marvelous.” “Thanks, handsome. You don’t look too bad yourself.”
• After the delicious meal you headed back home to finish the evening. You two split a bottle of very expensive champagne—curtesy of Zemo—and toasted to another year together. You could see the look in Zemos eyes—like he was devouring you right then and there, the action making your heart skip.
• And you were so ready to call it a night.
• “Are you wearing what I bought for you, draga?” “Why don’t we head to the bedroom so you can find out for yourself, Baron.”

Chapter Text

A = Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?)

Zemo has been through a lot and realizes just how quick one can lose everything they care about. He’s very affectionate with you whether it be in private or in public. He likes to brush hair from your face only to caress your cheek. Kissing is something he likes to reserve for when you two are in private, but every so often he will lightly kiss your cheek or even your lips with people around.

B = Best Friend (What would they be like as a best friend? how would the friendship start)

More than likely you two started off as enemies. Friendship, let alone romance, was the last thing you expected to find with Zemo. You were assisting Sam and Bucky on their quest to find the source of the super soldier serum and as you know, Zemo hates Avengers. Once you saved his life and vice versa, you two formed a mutual respect for one another.

As friends, Zemo would be there to listen if you needed to rant about what was bothering you or work related stress. He’d make you coffee or a drink if you asked and would help you with anything you asked. He’s a very reliable friend, which is the best thing you could ask for.

C = Cuddles (do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?)

Zemo loves to be held. The nightmares of his family often haunt him as so the memories of what he did during his time in the military. He loves when you open your arms up to him and let him nuzzle his face into your neck. It makes him feel safe and keeps the nightmares at bay.

Let it be known though that Zemo loves to hold you just as much as he himself likes to be held. He’ll press his chest into your back while wrapping an arm around your waist. It brings comfort to Zemo knowing you're with him and he basks in the warmth you radiate.

D = Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking and cleaning?)

It would be some time before Zemo thought of settling down with you. It was understandable. He was married with a child and lost them tragically so it’s a strong fear of his that the same would happen to you and any future children you may decide to have.

Although he has people to do it for him, Zemo is an exceptional cook and knows how to clean. Nothing pleases him more like a home cooked meal and spotless home so you often will find him tidying up after a long day. You love when he makes traditional Sokovian dishes for you to try.

E = Ending (if they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)

It would not be ideal for Zemo to end things with you. The only time he could see it happening is if old enemies from the past were threatening you and it was safer for you to not be in his life. It would break his heart to break up, but he would assure you that when the time is right he’d be there to pick up the pieces.

F = Fiancé(e) (How would they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?)

As mentioned earlier, commitment in the regards to marriage is something Zemo would need time to consider. He knows he loves you to the point he’d kill everyone on earth if you asked him too and would love nothing more to spend his entire life with you. After time together, he’d really only do it if you really wanted to.

Zemo would be the one to take you to the courthouse and get it over and done with if you two were in a life and death situation. Then after it’s all said and done with the threat gone, you both would have a ceremony if you pleased.

G = Gentle (How gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?)

Zemo is very gently when it comes to how he treats you. Anyone else he is cold. For example, on a mission with you where you were held at gun point, Zemo blew his brains out before coming up to you to give you a kiss and stroke your face. Then he asked what you wanted for dinner.

The Baron is also very in tune with your feelings. He can sense when something is bothering you and will ask if you want to talk or need space. Whatever you say he will respect, which is something you’re very grateful for.

H = Hugs (Do they like hugs? How often do they do it? What are their hugs like?)

Hugs are very intimate for Zemo. It is often a rare occurrence where Zemo will ask for a hug or simply does it without a heads up. They are full of love and appreciation where he will hold you tight to his chest and nuzzle his face into your neck. The hugs will last several minutes when Zemo is very drained or there was an incident where one of you nearly died.

I = I love you (how fast do they say the L-word?)

The first time Zemo told you he loved you was almost eight months after you two finally put a label on your relationship. It came at a time where it sort of happened. That feeling he remembered with his wife had washed over him one starry night as you two were looking over the balcony of a hotel. The second his eyes hit your profile where he could see the awe of your gaze at the night sky, he knew he loved you and would do anything to keep that smile on your face.

After that, Zemo says the phrase regularly. It’s at least once or twice a day he will whisper the words against your ear. And in the cases where you two are separated on a mission, Zemo will look deep into your eyes while squeezing your hand before saying it. Then he’ll give you a passionate kiss and tell you he’ll be waiting for you on the other side.

Having Wanda as your Valentine would involve:

• Wandas goal is to make sure you’re always smiling and happy. This may be as a result of a gift or words of affirmation, but either way it has your heart soaring.
• The first thing Wanda does when you wake up is give you a great big kiss with a bouquet of flowers. “Happy Valentine’s Day, draga.” Together you two make breakfast and you hand her the card you purchased with a love note. The words you wrote were enough to bring tears to her eyes and say, “I’m so lucky to have you, Y/n.” “You deserve the world and more, my love.”
• You exchange gifts which for Wanda, you bought her a Pandora charm bracelet. “Oh darling I love it! It’s so gorgeous—I can’t wait to add more charm.” She then excitedly handed you yours, which you opened to reveal a pair of Swarovski heart shaped earrings. You couldn’t help but awe at the beautiful jewelry, “This are so wonderful, Wanda! Thank you, my love.”
• Honestly you two would spend the day making crafts—enjoying fun little activities while a cheesy rom com plays on the TV and sipping on mimosas. Sometimes when you were feeling playful you’ll throw a little paper in the shape of a heart at her that had phases of love on it.
• They were enough to make her blush, leaning over to give you a kiss. “You are so cheesy, darling.” “Only for you, my beautiful girl.”
• Sometimes Wanda would catch you starting at her, which made her stare back at you until either of you could not handle it any longer and met in the middle for a passionate kiss. Her red hair would be in your face, but you didn’t mind because it gave you the excuse to run your fingers through it.
• You are that couple who would dress your pets in little holiday outfits—so your cat or dog definitely had a bow tie on its collar with hearts on it.
• Instead of going out, you’ll order Uber eats of random food and even an edible arrangement so you could treat yourself to chocolate covered fruits. You and Wanda are the type who would wait till February 15th to get half off-Valentine’s Day candy—although you did buy her a large box of chocolate.
• “I thought you were going to wait to get these, Y/n! You know how expensive they are!?” “I lied—Happy lovers' day, baby.”
• For date night, you two settled on the sofa to cuddle while watching your favorite movie—still dining on all the food you ordered while your pet sat by your feet. It was a sweet moment and you two couldn’t have asked for a better day. While going out to fancy restaurants were fun, having some quality time in your home was always better.
• It was a great day for you two, filled with love and affection while you laid back to relax and spend some much-needed time together. Something you two hadn’t had for a while with all the chaos that comes with being an Avenger.
• With one last kiss to end the night, you two said your final promise of love. “I love you so much Wanda, here’s to forever.” “Forever wouldn’t be enough when it comes to loving you, Y/n—but let’s make it worth to remember, darling.”

Chapter Text

Being in a relationship with Wanda & becoming influenced by the Darkhold would involve:

• Following the events of Westview and taking refuge in a cabin miles away from civilization, the relationship between you and Wanda took a turn. You were a former sorcerer/sorceress having trained in Kamar-Taj long before Strange and met Wanda shortly after the events of Sokovia. From there you two started as friends, but eventually a romance sparked and you two stuck by each other during the years on the run and helped defeated Thanos with the Avengers.
• When Westview happened, you both were each other’s rock after losing Billy & Tommy. The devastation took a toll and Wanda found herself unsure of how to manage the newfound power she unleashed during the fight with Agatha. Then came along the Darkhold.
• “Where did you find that? I-I thought Agatha—.” “I took it from her. Thought, maybe we would need it at some point.” “That’s the book of the damned, Wanda.” “Do you trust me?”
• As a sorcerer from Kamar-Taj, you knew all about the Darkhold and what it involved. The Ancient One warned you of the cost it’s reader would endure which made you want to stay far away from it. Not to mention, its counter, the Book of Vashanti was a rumor amongst the Cosmos.
• You’re unsure when your mind became fully corrupt by the darkness within the book. All you remember was deciding to read it with Wanda after she brought it up because you were wary of her opening it’s contents on her own. Before you knew it, there was a shift around you—mentally and physically.
• Your eyes lost their color, becoming pitch black—there was a sheen on your skin and of course, black covered your fingertips. The way you thought changed, almost like there was a little voice constantly whispering in your ear. It felt like you were being lured by a Siren’s song.
• Wanda had the most drastic change. Her whole demeanor oozed power, which you could not help but admire. Had you been in the right state of mind, you probably would of opposed the idea she composed of traveling across the multiverse to a reality where your children were.
• “You’re saying they exist? In the Multiverse?” “Almost every reality has them, my dear. All except this one. We can be a family again.”
• For weeks you two studied all there was in the Darkhold and navigating through the multiverse. When it’s discovered a girl named America Chavez has the power to travel between universes, Wanda makes it her mission to track her down and absorb the power.
• Each night you two dream of the happy life you envision with your sons. It only makes you crave it more when you realize the dreams you’ve been having are actually your other selves living the very life you want.
• You hold Wanda each morning when you wake up. It usually involves both of you crying—heartbroken by the reality that you two have to live on without Billy and Tommy while they are out there in another universe. It fuels the two of you more and more to get America Chavez so you can accomplish your goal.
• “How much longer, my love?” “Soon, darling. I have sent reinforcements to capture her, and she’ll be at our doorstep anyway.” “Have I ever told you how hot you are when you cast spells?”
• You two may be breaking the rules of the multiverse and reality as the cosmos know it, but with the Darkhold in your grasps and the power of desire, the two of you make quite the deadly duo.

Chapter Text

Being a sorcerer/sorceress and Wanda’s best would look like:

• You two are literally the chaos twins (not in regard to chaos magic, but you’re just a handful when together). You more than likely met either after the events of Ultron where you both were recruited to the Avengers. Your rooms were on the same floor, so you saw each other a lot whether it be in the kitchen or the living room. In the beginning you didn’t say much, but it soon grew into small conversations.
• Over time you two realized you had a lot in common. Both of you had abilities that regular humans were hesitant of, lost family, and were pretty much on your own. Yeah you had the Sanctum and other sorcerers, but you never really connected with them much. Wanda could understand you, and you could do the same for her. “Ever felt like you’re on a tight rope with people on either side, but you know if you were to fall there’s a chance no one would be there to save you?” “That sounds like every day of my life.”
• If you were a fan of sitcoms than TV night was the best time for you two, but if you weren’t then you’d make the sacrifice for her in exchange for Wanda watching something you liked the next time. The classics were a must like ‘I Love Lucy,’ and ‘The Dike Van Dyke Show.” You’ll grab some popcorn with sodas or milkshakes and spend hours watching until you either finish a season or fall asleep on the couch.
• When it came time to training, you two were often paired together. No one else in the Avengers had magic other than Loki (but even then, the God was not a good teacher and was often MIA) so you had to wing it. Wanda of course wielded a different type of magic than you and therefore it was often offensive sparring you’d engage in. You never saw Wanda say or perform incantations, so you were clueless as to what her magic was. All you knew was it came from the Mind Stone.
• A game you both loved to do on a day off or break from missions was to spin to globe and have one of your fingers land on a random place. Wherever it landed on, you’d conjure a portal to the location and you guys would spend the entire day there having fun. “We went to Rome last month, I kinda wanna go to somewhere in South America.” “Then aim for that—but remember no cheating! No using powers to slow the globe.”
• Wanda loved to make you Sokovian dishes to try out. Now that her country was gone and the population was scattered, she wanted to keep her culture alive by creating traditional meals and share them with you. Everything she made was like heaven to your tastebuds. “Wanda, darling, Vision is a lucky to have you.” “One, he doesn’t eat. And two *blushes* we’re not together.” “Suuuure you’re not *wink*.”
• You guys did everything you could that best friends did even though you rarely got time off and were bound to the compound. You’d drive into the city for shopping or catching a movie. Sometimes you’d get stopped for photos and autographs which you welcomed warmly with a smile. Going to bookstores was a must at least once a month so you could gather books for your little book club you had which you made all the Avengers take part in. “I thought we’d agreed we would not be doing another romance novel, Y/n, Maximoff.” “Yes that was true, Loki, but this is a historical romance and the one last week was contemporary.” “I frankly enjoyed this story.” “Thank you, Vision.”
• Like most best friends, you both would lend each other clothes, books, makeup if you wore it, etc, etc. Thankfully living together on the same floor meant you could not use excuses if you didn’t return it. Although you may have lost one of her earrings on a mission, and Wanda spilled coffee on a T-shirt you gave her. When something like that happened you two always replaced it.
• Of course, when one of you gets into a relationship the other is first to know. It wasn’t a surprise when Wanda and Vision finally labeled the thing going between them. “I always knew it was a matter of time.” When it came to you, dating was something you didn’t prioritize, but if it happened it happened. “What’s up with you and that CIA guy?” “Ross? Oh nothing, he’s just a friend.” “You said the same about that one sorcerer. What was his name again? Steph—.” “It was a mistake to get involve with someone at the Sanctum. But I won’t deny the man is hot as fuck.” “and what about Sharon Cater?” “Now that, that was a lost chance I can only hope would get a second one.”

Chapter Text

Being the adoptive sister to Natasha Romanoff & Yelena Belova would include:

• Born to a young mother and out of wedlock in Soviet Russia, you were given to the K.G.B at only eight months old. Your mother was young and naive, unable to care for you & desired for you to have a better life—but was unfortunately mistaken when she thought she was handing you over to an adoption agency.
• It was after you were taken that you were sent to the Red Room Academy. As in infant you underwent tests and trials, with the scientists injecting you with a strain of super soldier serum giving you heightened agility, enhanced immune system, and slowed aging. When you came of age, you were sent through your first cycle of the harsh training a Black Widow endured.
• You were one of the best of your generation, the one predicted by Madame B. & Dreykov that would go on to become a fully-fledged Widow. At age 6, you were assigned with Widow Melina Vostokoff and super soldier Alexi Shostakov, along with ‘students’ Natalia Romanov and Yelena Belova to go undercover as a family in America in order to infiltrate the espionage agency, S.H.I.E.L.D. You were aware of the orders, as was Natasha—however Yelena was too young and kept from knowing.
• You loved being in Ohio. It was a breath of fresh air and not having to deal with the horrors that would await from you when you returned ‘home’. Ohio was the home you wanted to stay in. It gave you sisters; it gave you parents. It made you feel safe and able to dream like a little girl should.
• Of course, the happiness is short lived & the mission comes to an end after three years. You cried when Melina was shot and not knowing what happened to her. Dreykov took you girls back and from there you were separated. The next cycle of your training was even more brutal than the first.
• The ballet and gymnastics came easily to you, and it was often you found yourself enjoying the sports. You would often picture yourself outside of the Red Room as if you were just a normal girl taking lessons with her parents watching from the sidelines. But even those fantasies don’t push away reality.
• Natasha had completed her training two years before you, becoming the best Widow the Red Room had ever produced. After completing five cycles of the intense training—where you had to fight and kill the other leading Widow in your generation as a final assessment, you finally become a fully-fledged Widow at 18. Securing it with the graduation ceremony.
• Yelena completes her training roughly three years after you and you don’t hear much from her or Natasha for several years. During this time, you went on mission after mission for the Red Room and K.G.B. You infiltrated governments across the globe and assassinated over a hundred individuals by the time you were 21. Red was your ledger, and it was dripping red.
• When Natasha finds you in Budapest, you had already received word on what was taking place in the city. You didn’t know she had defected, and part of you felt betrayed she hadn’t tried to find you before leaving for America. After a small fight between the two—which ended with Clint Barton holding a arrow toward you, you finally let Natasha convince you to come with her.
• “I can get you out, Y/n. You can be free from this—from him! Help me and I’ll do whatever I can to help you defect.” “Don’t give me hope with promises you can’t keep, Natalia.”
• Part of you was scared. The Red Room had been operating for almost 100 years, so you couldn’t help but feel it was a dream unable to achieve. When she and Clint go through the plan, it’s then you finally agree. You do whatever to help, and eventually the chaos comes to end days later when you can finally feel some peace when you’re seated on a jet to America.
• The peace is short lived when U.S governments and agencies are having you do countless interviews and evaluations. S.H.I.E.L.D was at the head of it, they were the ones who were in charge making sure you were qualified and capable of being part of U.S society. It would be a long two years before you were finally able to join their ranks alongside Natasha.
• In the years after your defection, you would try to locate Yelena from time to time but were unsuccessful in your attempts. During that time you were recruited to the Avengers initiative, fighting aliens and robots before you could even really blink. S.H.I.E.L.D fell not long after with the reveal Hydra was conspiring within its ranks for decades. That time you fell into a slight depression, feeling dishearten at the fact you left the K.G.B/Red Room only to fall into the hands of Hydra.
• Natasha and you really leaned to each other during that time. You both had got close over the years—feeling more like the sisters you were as children. When the Accords happened and she was labeled a fugitive you were at a loss. You had sided with Tony, and lost sight of Nat during the airport fight so you were unaware she had allowed Steve and Bucky to escape.
• When Nat calls you shortly after her exile with the news she’s found Yelena and the Red Room was active with Dreykov alive you dropped everything and got to the next flight to Norway. You paid everything in cash because Ross was on your ass knowing how close you were with Nat. In Norway you’re finally reunited with Yelena for the first time in nearly 20 years.
• “You look good, Y/n. I like the poses you do when you’re fighting—though it’s nothing compared to this one.” “It’s good to see you too, Yelena.”
• You three collect Alexi, smirking when he gets a nice punch to the face from Yelena, and you two make your way to St. Petersburg to see Melina. Honestly you were quite happy to see her, happy she survived the bullet when you all were escaping Ohio. The dinner table scenario however was awkward to say the least. You were seated by Nat—across from Yelena, and when Nat started going off you stayed silent drinking the Vodka cause honestly you didn’t feel like adding anything to the conversation.
• “You’re awfully quiet, Y/n. That’s something new.” “Well you wouldn’t stop talking so I thought I’d just busy myself with this fine liquor, you know?”
• The damage was done. And although part of you blamed the two ‘parents’ for allowing you three to go back to the organization that would break down your mind, body, and soul, yelling at them wouldn’t change it. You did become slightly emotional when Yelena started breaking down.
• The topic of the family you five had was something you didn’t like to think about. You wanted to believe it was real—it felt like it from time to time especially with how Melina and Alexi seemed to care for you like real parents, but the fact once the mission was over you were given away like trash made you feel like you were only a job to them.
• When you finally reach the Red Room—in which you nearly killed Melina not knowing it was Natasha before she shot you with a Widows Bite, you were strapped beside Yelena on a stretcher. The two of you escape with the help of Melina—who had switched with Nat in order for her to get to Dreykov, and head straight to the training room of the Widows.
• After tracking them down to Dreykovs office and freeing them with the antidote strapped to a bomb, you met up with Melina and Alexi while Nat stays to download the files. You lose track of Yelena and help Melina pilot the aircraft when you have to escape before the other two could make it on time.
• The jet crashes, leaving you with cut forehead and bruised ribs, but nothing too serious. It was an emotional goodbye for the five of you when you finally met up with Nat and Yelena. Nat had set off her tracker for Ross to find her, and you were conflicted on what to do. If you stayed then you’d be arrested by Ross for keeping the whereabouts of Nat hidden from him, but if you left then you could either help Yelena free the remaining Widows around the globe.
• With some debate and convincing from Nat, you leave with Yelena, Melina, and Alexi. You help Melina recreate the formula of the antidote, and with the key Nat downloaded from Dreykovs office you, Yelena and the remaining Widows track down every Widow the chemical subjection was given too.
• It would take several months—almost a year to free all of them, all while staying hidden from Ross—but eventually you were return home. With not just one family in the Avengers (who still needed to be fixed), but two. The family you gained 20 years prior when you were just a little girl who dreamed of being free, was finally complete.

Chapter Text

Loki falling in love with a Shield agent/Avenger would include:

• Completely hating each other in the beginning (like seriously, you want to kill each other)
• Thor having to step in when it becomes heated between the two of you, and Steve never putting you on missions together.
• You doing all you can to avoid him, but eventually you find out he enjoys time in the lounge library as much as you. So you either wait till he leaves or you just sit on the opposite side ignoring each other.
• One day it leads to him asking you about the book you were currently on, and that led to a conversation about the one he had.
• The conversations becoming more frequent, especially if you both were in the library at the same time. After weeks went by, you were surprised when he brought you a cup of tea.
• You two soon fell into a civil routine where he would bring you tea, you would bring him snacks, and the two of you would read silently while occasionally engaging in conversation.
• The team began to notice weeks later when neither of you voiced protest after Steve had you both paired with Bucky, Thor and him on mission. Normally the two of you would argue against it until one of you was pulled off.
• No one said anything, but Thor, Steve, and Tony made comments once the both of you had left the conference room.
• “Did my eyes deceive me, or did Reindeer Games and wannabe Trinity actually get along five minutes ago?” “Let’s just be grateful they did and pray it lasts the whole mission so no one ends up killed.”
• When your group returned from annihilating the secret Hydra base, Loki complimented you which caught you off guard. In response, you returned the gesture however you threatened to take it back when he appeared smug. “Don’t think this makes us friends, frosty. We may be civil now but I’ll still gut you if you overstep.”
• That however didn’t last because as time went on you found yourself seeking out Loki’s company whenever you were bored, in need of someone to rant to, or simply wanted to hang out with him. He appeared genuinely interested whenever you would ask him to go out to a bar or watch a movie, but that didn’t stop his cheeky nature.
• “Careful, Y/L/N. If I didn’t know any better I would almost assume you were flirting with me.”
• Tony throwing his lavish parties every month and although you normally avoided them, Loki ended up asking you to accompany him. “I hate his parties too, Y/N, but I would feel less wanting to through myself off the roof of this building if you joined me for the night.” “You seriously need to work on your game, Laufeyson.”
• You first kiss happens on New Years when Tony throws an extravaganza. By now your relationship with Loki had become flirtatious and overall friendly so it was no surprise when the God of Mischief smirked at you claiming you had no choice because it was, ‘what you midgardians call tradition, right?’
• One kiss becomes two, and three more take place before you call it a night. Loki walks you back to your room, and gives you one last kiss before telling you, “I knew you never hated me. Which is good because I never hated you to begin with, love.”
• When the team finds out the next briefing you two are together, you vaguely see Thor being handed a twenty-dollar bill by Steve, who also hands one to Tony.
• Loki is the first to say ‘I love you.’ The action comes after you’re injured on a mission. It wasn’t anything major, just a simple bullet graze on your side and bloody forehead, but it’s enough to have the God enraged and kill the man responsible in cold blood. As Banner is dressing the wound on the quintet, Loki takes your hand and whispers it in your ear which results in you nearly crying and saying it back immediately.
• The team annoys you both constantly. Thor and Tony argue who gets to be the one you name your kids after (Which is something you and Loki never talk about) while Steve and Bucky threaten Loki on what will happen if he ever breaks your heart. Nat, Wanda, and Peter are always wanting updates on you two, and Clint and Sam simply make snide comments whenever either of you get annoyed with them.
• “I’m going to kill them, Loki.” “Remember my love, I tried once. It didn’t work.”

Chapter Text

You & Loki being the most fashionable couple of the Avengers would involve:

• You both are always the best dressed at any fucnction. This includes Tony’s extravagant parties, dinner dates, briefings, hell even simple occasions you guys manage to look your best.
• Loki can never say no to a suit, so you will coordinate your outfit based on what he decides. Or it’s vise versa and him coordinating to whatever you are in the mood for.
• The girls are always coming to you for fashion advice because you always know the latest trends and styles. But no one can deny it, you are also the trend setter when it comes to the Avengers.
• If one of the guys gave a date, you offer assistance and Loki will even give pointers. And boy does Loki wish Bucky would wear something other than a Henley and leather jacket.
• You help Peter when it’s prom night, making sure his suit matches MJ’s and gets the right corsage for her. Mj might even come to you with help picking out a dress.
• The effect you two have in public involves people stopping and staring—this could be because of your status, but the first thing people usually come up to you is so they can compliment your outfit. “Your jacket is amazing! Where did you get it from?”
• There’s a lot of green and gold in your closet, the number growing after you and Loki got together. He loves seeing you in his colors, especially when it’s a gala and your dressed to the nines in either a green gown/suit with gold accessories.
• Tony likes to tease and say the two of you are a walking Pinterest board which makes you go, “Well where else did you think I found inspiration for this, Tony?” You don’t need the platform obviously cause you just know how to make clothes look good together, but it doesn’t hurt to find new things to discover.
• Birthdays and holiday presents are usually new clothes you thought the other would like. And you’d be denying if you didn’t say you would buy things to match whatever you got him.
• It’s safe to say, there’s no denying the magic happening when you two style each other.

Chapter Text

Loki marrying Tony’s sister would look like:

• Tony had choked on his drink when he found out his younger sister was dating the God of Mischief so you can imagine he was two seconds from a heart attack when it was announced you two were engaged.
• Thor was ecstatic, lifting Tony in his arms in celebration. “Stark we’re gonna be brothers!! How fantastic!” “I think I’m gonna pass out point break—please put me down.”
• The rest of the team were happy for you two—saying congratulations with hugs and all that jazz. Much to your surprise, Tony hosted an engagement party at the compound despite still wrapping his head around the news. “A party? Really, Tony?” “C’mon sis—I might not be your boos biggest fan, but that doesn’t mean we can’t celebrate!”
• When it came time to plan, your bridal party consisted of Pepper, Natasha, Wanda, some of your close friends with little Morgan as the flower girl. Tony actually cried when you asked him to walk you down the aisle, wiping his face while mumbling, “I’d be honored, sugar plum.” You made a mental note to have his chair at the wedding to have a box of tissues.
• You and Loki decided to have wedding in Norway with a combination of Asgardian & Midgard traditions. Tony wanted to pay for everything, but you refused saying he can only help with certain things. Given you had a good income being a tech analysis & professor for MIT, there was no need to lean on Tony for funding when you and Loki were well equipped. Plus Loki was a prince, so that helped greatly.
• The wedding was held outside in a beautiful, wooded area that was decorated to the nines. Thankfully the weather held up so sunshine lasted all day until it set.
• Loki had to wipe his eyes when they met yours. You looked absolutely breathtaking—like a true goddess who was to become his queen. Your dress truly captured your beauty and made you radiate under the glowing sun peeking through the woods.
• All the Avengers were present, as were the guardians & what remained of Asgard. Pepper was your maid of honor and walked with Morgan—the young girl throwing the rose petals with excitement. Thor was Loki’s best man, the man having to hide his face cause he was crying during the vows like Tony was. He was the loudest to cheer when you two sealed your bond with a kiss.
• Thor also was in charge of running the bar—which the God had a grand time of doing. He even made you a special cocktail when you approached, toasting to you with “To my new sister!! Welcome to the family, Lady Stark—or should I say Lady Odinson.”
• You and Tony had a ‘brother/sister’ dance considering your dad was not present. It was a heartfelt moment between the two of you, on where you had glossy eyes as you swayed to the music in the comfort of your brothers arms. “Thank you, Tony. For everything.” “I’d do it all again for you, sweet pea. I’m so proud of you—and I’m happy for you. Truly.”
• Tony & Thor stood beside each other when you and Loki had your first dance—the two passing a handkerchief to remove the tears. Both were filled with emotion seeing their younger siblings find love—and in each other nonetheless.
• The party was in full swing after that with everyone dancing, chatting, drinking and celebrating. You had danced nearly all the guys like Thor, Steve, Sam, and Bucky and even shared a dance with Peter and Harley when an upbeat song came on. Loki danced with the several of the girls including Pepper, Nat, and Wanda—where some of the words exchanged were threats if he every were to hurt you. The God even twirled around Morgan while she danced between the two of you.
• When the night came to an end and it was time for goodbyes, you exchanged another hug and cheek kiss with Tony. “I love you, bro. I’ll call you when we land, okay?” “Sounds good sis, be safe now and I just don’t mean traveling,” the wink was enough implication causing you to swat at his chest playfully. “Hey, I’m ready to be an uncle but—.” “Tony…”
• As you two drove off to your honeymoon after being bombarded with cheers, hugs, kisses and flying rice, the man of Iron with his super powered team waved off in glee as the Prince from Asgard with glorious purpose & the Lady from Midgard with a talent for technology sailed off to their happily ever after.

Chapter Text

Loki falling in love w/ a Master of Mystic Arts would look like:

• The first meeting with Loki was anything but a warm welcome. As a student of Doctor Strange, you happened to be present when Thor made his way to the Sanctum in search of where Loki had gone after they were unable to locate their father. Dressed in a tunic of your favorite color, you stood to the side to witness the interaction between the Sorcerer Supreme and the God of Thunder.
• “Are you a wizard as well?” “This isn’t Hogwarts, your highness.”
• You had to hold back laughter when Loki landed face first on the floor. The smile was wiped away and replaced with a look of challenge under the Gods glare. The man was not impressed as you can assume, and that was the last you saw him after Strange sent the two away. “Charming, isn’t he, Strange?”
• It would be several weeks later you find yourself reacquainted with the God of Mischief. After Strange was taken by Ebony Maw and you were left on Earth, you traveled to Wakanda with the remaining Avengers to protect Vision from Thanos. It was quiet the surprise for all of you when you saw Thor and Loki accompanied by a treelike figure and a talking raccoon.
• When Loki recognized you, he was taken aback and rather unamused. “I take it the second-hand sorcerer was unable to make an appearance? You sure a young apprentice such as yourself can handle this?” “I’m more than capable—you’ll find my magic might just rival that of yours, you highness.”
• Neither of you two could stand each other in the beginning but were not blind to the obvious attraction you had for another. Both of you blipped and returned on the same note you had five years earlier—only this time, you two were able to bond by the fact you had lost so much time.
• An unlikely…partnership was the best to describe the situation, one filled with bickering and banter. Always trying to one up the other often led to arguments which resulted in Loki turning you into some kind of animal, or you push him into a portal to another continent.
• “Stop turning me into a fucking donkey!” “Then learn to not send me to God knows where for a hours having to fend for myself!”
• Strange wasn’t oblivious unlike Thor. Thor found amusement in your behavior, but the God was pretty surprised when Stephen came up to him with the obvious truth. “Their denial is becoming exhausting.” “What denial do you speak of, wizard Strange?” “Are you serious? You don’t see the sexual tension—the looks and words. My God you’re just as blind as them.”
• The first time you two kissed you both look at each other almost horrified. It had been unexpected in the heat of an argument, but then Loki slowly put his hands on your cheeks and brought you into a softer kiss that took your breath away. It scared you, fearing he would walk away and pretend it didn’t happen, but Loki surprised you with a look that spoke a thousand words.
• “I…..I feel I must apologize for my actions and words prior to this moment. I never once wanted you to feel like I hated you, Y/n.” “Loki, I forgive you as long as long as you can find it in your heart to forgive me. I’m not proud of how I acted toward you and hope you understand I never felt that way either.”
• Thor owed Strange $20 bucks and the payment was met the next morning when the two of you were spotted having tea and smiling. Both the men were leaning over a doorway and witnessed Loki brush away a piece of your hair before placing a kiss to your cheek.
• The rivalry between you two never seized despite forming a relationship. When it came who was better at magic, you found pleasure in the games you two created. Missions were especially fun to go head to head. “Pulling your punches, darling?” “Just keeping you on your toes.”
• You two were paired together on missions. Loki loved when the two of you were sent undercover and the details included you having to dress up. Often times he would change the color of your attire to green with a flick of his hand—which ended with you giving a look of disapproval, although he could see the smirk on your face.
• Loki LOVES when you create one of those whips and will pull him to you. Mans was shocked the first time you did after he tried walking away from you during an argument and felt rather aroused. “Is it bad this kinda turned me on?”
• You’re the first to say ‘I love you.’ It happened after Loki defended his feelings for you after Thor had accused him of scheming once more to achieve the throne. After being with him for months, you picked up on his mannerisms and could spot when he lied and told the truth. Love consumed you when you realized he was in fact telling the truth.
• After you said it, Loki picked you up and spun you with joy while placing kisses on your face—all while repeating the phrase against your skin.
• The other Avengers are happy for you two—even Strange. He was a little uneasy in the beginning, but as your mentor and friend the man was happy for you.
• Loki taught you a thing or two of the magic he learned from his mother, and in turn you showed him the beauty of the Mystic Arts.
• You two brought out the best in one another. Loki never thought he was deserving of affections—let alone someone as amazing as you. He made sure every day you knew how much he loved you. This came in words, actions, gifts, even the smallest of looks spoke volume between you two.
• Loki is still resentful of Strange for making him fall for thirty minutes straight into nothingness, but eventually lets it go. After some time of course. “Loki, Stephen apologized months ago—.” “The spider kid had him dangle for twelve hours, only then did he realize what it’s like to be on the receiving end.” “And how do you feel now?” “…..pretty damn happy.”

Valentine’s Day w/ Loki would look like:

• Remember he’s not from Earth so you’d probably have to explain to him the significance of the day after he sees commercials and ads to buy things for your lover. “So it’s a day about love?” “Yes—even though everyday should really be that. This just gives companies an excuse to make cute things and sell them.” “I see.”
• You’re his world so Loki would most likely do his best to give you a wonderful Valentine’s Day. Flowers would be ordered—either roses or your favorite depending on how you are—he’ll buy the expensive chocolate and even jewelry depending on how long you’ve been together.
• He’s the type that would try to outdo himself each year. The first Valentine’s Day you shared he just got you a card & some sweets because you had only been dating a couple months—whereas after two years you started to receive diamonds and gold, even though you told Loki to not spend that kind of money.
• Breakfast is made and brought to you with a cup of coffee or tea made just the way you like it. Loki will kiss your forehead and sit beside you while you eat the food on the tray and watch a random program.
• You’ll always receive a love letter from him—sometimes it will be a card with a paragraph or it will be a full page.
• Baking is a tradition you two started to do one year where you would make heart shaped goods and alternated each year with brownies, cookies, and cupcakes. And it wasn’t a surprise when flour would get everywhere because Loki is truly the God of mischief.
• Loki is SO the lover, boyfriend, partner, husband that will get you one of those giant ass teddy bears—you know, one that’s bigger than you. It would take up a whole section of the bed. “Babe, how am I supposed to carry this upstairs? “You don’t, darling—I do that for you.”
• This is Prince Loki, so expect an extravagant night with a romantic candlelit dinner and drinking the finest of wines. You’ll have a toast—exchanging vows of love with kisses.
• A bubble bath would be prepared when the evening rolled around paired with rose petals, bath bombs, and even face masks—because Loki would do skin care with you. He’ll braid your hair or put it in a bun so it was out of your face, the two of you would undress each other and settle in the warm water with more champagne and soft music in the background.
• “This is nice—plus having you makes it a bonus.” “I’m flattered, darling—anything to make you happy.”
• Every day is amazing when you have the crown prince of Asgard by your side, but something about lovers day makes it even more special—especially with fine wine and bubble baths ♥️

• As a close friend to Tony Stark growing up with your mothers being close friends before Maria's untimely death, you were invited to most things Tony orchestrated. Parties, expos, an all that jazz. It was at an event for the Avengers that you first met Loki, brother of the Mighty Thor.
• And actually, Thor was the one who introduced the two of you--despite Tony's objections--after discovering your profession and love of literature. Instantly Loki was intrigued but kept his usual demeanor of stoic and disinterest in Midgardians. Yet it diminished as you were able to keep a conversation with him, and keep it interesting, unlike the other Avengers he constantly found annoying.
• Honest to God, his first impression when you revealed your profession would’ve been like, “what a naive mortal. There’s a reason what you desire of romance is mere fantasy and only found in the books you write,” and not taken your work serious compared to other literary publications.
• Loki always migrated to historical fiction and the works of Shakespeare, Dante, and anything else you might find on a high schooler's summer reading list.
• That opinion quickly evaporated upon the first few interactions you two had. Because you were a published author it left Loki with curiosity. Although he'd never admit it aloud, deep down he wanted to know just how your writing process worked and if the stories were inspired by real life events or something you wished to experience.
• What initially was supposed to be Loki only reading your debut novel, turned into him purchasing your entire collection of works. And boy was he captivated. You're writing drew him in like a siren luring men to sea. Page after page, Loki found himself in the late hours of the night until the sun rose the next morning, nose deep into your books.
• At first Loki planned to keep his enjoyment of your books secret, but then he just couldn't contain it any longer.
• What surprised you, was when he started giving his feedback. Discussing his thoughts on the characters and plot. "How could she take him back after saying those things to her? Absolutely unacceptable. No matter how angry I am I'd never that to my partner." "Y/n, I really think you should give the people what they want and write a second novel to 'Seven Nights in Paris,'--In fact it should be call it something like, 'Seven Weeks in London.'
• Eventually as the two of you became close and the relationship blossomed, Loki became an integral part in your writing. Both as a reviewer and a muse.
• At the core the God was a romantic. The type to not only sway you with words and gestures but reaffirm your values and expectations in a partner. He listened, he communicated, goes the mile to ensure your happiness and needs are met. Whether it be taking you to a nice dinner or leaving notes with your morning coffee already made, your heart was full of love and didn't have to hear Loki say to know his was too.
• Moments of your relationship with Loki paralleled in your books. You couldn't help it at times. The writer in you would get so inspired that before you knew it the love interest's dialogued mirrored words he said to you. An argument between the protagonists was awfully similar to one you two had. Poured the feelings of when you two kiss into the scenes the characters finally break the tension.
• Yeah, he'd give you his famous smirk to let you know he was onto you to which you'd shrug and say, "Felt inspired." "By me, love?" "Always by you, mischief."
• And so it's no surprise to Loki or anyone close to y'all when you release your anticipated novel, about a hopeless romantic writer who meets a misunderstood God from another world, on the day you two exchange vows and rings. Putting your own love story on the shelves for the world to see.

Being in a relationship with Bucky Barnes while also being a Thunderbolt* would look like:

• Having been a CIA operative turned rogue hitman for Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, you were 'a guest' in her little cleanup operation that ultimately resulted in your unorthodox team-up with fellow anti-heroes that in turn became the Thunderbolts*/New Avengers. Falling in love with former Winter Soldier turned Congressman Bucky Barnes was not in the plan, but hey you can't help what the heart wants.
• The others constantly tease y'all and will be like "uh oh, mommy and daddy are fighting again," whenever you two argue during a mission or while planning an attack. Bucky is headstrong and stubborn, but you're the only one who can really get through that hard head of his. He respects you so much that honestly, there's no point in arguing, he's gonna do what you think is best. 
• Couples that throw hands against bad guys together, stay together. The two of you are an unstoppable duo when it comes to missions--watching each other's six, throwing weapons for the other to catch, throwing each other if it's necessary. "Babe, I know you're a super soldier and all, but can you try to be a little gentler when I ask you to toss me across the platform?" 
• Staying up late in the tower's penthouse going over files which just ends being you two cuddled on the couch watching a Met's game if it's on or catching Bucky up on another movie he missed out on. Star Wars, the Godfather, The Matrix, the Equalizer, Grease, etc. He's got so many questions and anytime you watch an action movie the man is criticizing the fighting technique. 
• You train together most days although the man tends to hold himself back because he's afraid of hurting you with his strength. and he's not available then you usually train with Yelena and Ava while he, John and Alexi do their super soldier showdowns. At that point you three just watch and take bets on who wins. Of course, your money is on Bucky. 
• Bucky will put his arm in the dishwasher to clean and you'll discover it when you go to load the dishwasher. "Bucky! Is your arm clean to your liking or do you want me to give it another spin?" "Another spin, darling, thanks!"
• If his hair gets too long, you'll offer to give him haircuts because he's too damn lazy to do it himself or go to a barber saying, "We've got more important things to worry about than my hair."  It gets to a point that after his millionth complaint you simply grab his arm and push him into the chair yourself. "Your ass is staying here until I'm done and if you get up while I'm working then it's your fault for the fuck ass hairdo you'll be rocking from here on."
• Expect harsh kisses filled with relief after a job completed. Especially if there was a close call involving you. Bucky will grab your face in his hands and practically push you off your feet by the force of his lips claiming your own. And he doesn't give a fuck where you are or if his political reputation is reprimanded, that man is kissing you like it's his only way to breath. "Don't ever--." *kiss* "--scare me like that--." *kiss* "again, L/n."

Being a Thunderbolt* and in a relationship with Yelena Belova looks like:

• Doing each other's hair and makeup before a mission. Yelena will be complaining about her dad embarrassing her or Walking being annoying as you line her eyes with black kohl and shimmer. Chuckling when she sneezes suddenly after you pat powder on her complexion. When it comes time to do her hair, you can't get enough of her messy slick back. "This style again?" "Hey, you're the one who complains of a headache whenever I give you a bun or ponytail."
• On off days you two will go on walks around New York, play video games, or go to a local flea market. Sometimes you'll drag Ava with you or Alexei will simply invite himself to which Yelena groans but deep down you know she enjoys spending time with him even if he's intruding on your date. You two are fans of fighting games like Mortal Kombat, but you also have known to dabble in Overwatch and Grand Theft Auto. 
• Despite finding purpose with the team, Yelena still has days where she struggles. And on those days you do your best to be there for her--often tending to her self-care when you notice she's unable to find the energy to do it herself. You'll draw her a bath, wash her hair as you listen to her release the pent-up emotions she's bottled, have her sit on the floor while you untangle the knots and apply her moisturizer. Then you'll tuck her into bed, press a soft kiss to her forehead and hold her with soothing rubs to her back as she falls asleep. It's the most loved she's ever felt in her life, and it would take a higher power to even try to take that from her. 
• During training or just working our you two spot each other. Yelena prefers to bench press whereas you enjoy taking claim to a punching bag and having her hold it. She loves watching how focused you are and lowkey gets turned on by the way you view the bag as an enemy. "My goodness, moya lyubov', I never want to get on your bad side." "Have you forgotten how we met?"
• Bob is literally y'alls adoptive little brother. You will include him in your movie nights, threaten the others if they are mean to him, help him in his training and bring him anything he needs when he's having an off day. In the beginning he was still a little hesitant about letting you guys in, but eventually he grew to see you two as siblings and knows he'd do anything to protect you. And he knows you'd do anything to keep him safe. 
• You have a family of guinea pigs. All of them are named after your favorite songs, including "Pie" for Yelena's 'American Pie'. Yelena is very devoted parent to your guinea pigs and even has an entire room in the tower for them to live in. 
• Yelena teaches you Russian if you don't already know it, although she regrets it when she catches you and Alexei having a conversation and he's telling you all the embarrassing moments she had as a child. Including her time on the Peewee soccer team.
