bucky who can’t quite seem to get over the fact he can pick up mjolnir even though it’s been a good three months since the first time he accidentally plucked it from the ground in avenger’s tower. the hammer itself always seems to be in the most random of places and bucky will walk over to it whenever the opportunity comes along and look around to make sure no one is watching before picking it up again as it expecting one day that he won’t be able to lift it again. except every time it comes off the ground without hesitation and he grins like an absolute idiot because it means more to him than it probably should just that mjolnir deems him worthy at all so that must mean there’s something good about him, right?
and of course tony eventually asks why thor leaves his hammer just sitting around the place and thor simply smiles and says, “because it helps where i cannot.”
The Avengers frequently lose Bucky after he officially joins the team. He goes away for hours at a time and everyone just assumes it’s best not to bother him.
The thing is, the facility has a big kitchen and Bucky’s taken to hanging out in the facility’s huge, walk-in freezer. Weirdly, cold storage is his safe space. And because Bucky’s dealt with full-on cryo, the freezer is more like a spa than a fridge. It barely feels cold, and he can hang out for quite a while before it gets hard to breathe.
No one knows where he goes until one day Sam is getting a snack. And there’s Bucky, playing solitaire and eating ice cream sandwiches next to a bulk supply of frozen vegetables.
There’s an intensely awkward minute of silent confusion as they size each other up.
Sam goes to get Steve.
Steve steps into the fridge and takes in the sight of his best friend, slightly frosted, casually playing cards by himself. “What are you doing in here, Buck?” he asks.
Bucky plays another card and shrugs. “Just chillin’.”
Head canon that whenever Natasha is asked sexist questions by the media, the boys just keep going to increasingly ridiculous lengths to get there and answer the question instead.
Reporter: Do you ever feel resentment for this job reducing the possibility of having a family? Bruce, strolling by: I don’t know, I never really thought about having a family to begin with. I prefer spending my time in the company of friends.
Reporter: Do you feel like you have to be super girly to stand out or super masculine to fit in with all the men? Steve, jumping over from his own group of reporters: See, that’s what I love about the 21st century. Lots of room for gender expression however you want. *pointed Disappointed Captain Look*
Reporter: Do you think your emotions ever get the best of you on the field? Thor, landing with Mjolnir: I have spent many years learning to control my pride on the battlefield and not lose my head during a fight. I thank my shield brothers and sister for helping me.
Reporter: How do you come out of a fight looking so fabulous? Tony, flying in on a private helicopter probably: It’s just genetics, dear. I always look fabulous. I looked fabulous while dying.
Reporter: What kind of product do you use in your hair? Bucky, ziplining in from the next building over: L’oreal. *hands out the expertly photoshopped ad Darcy made of him in a L’oreal ad*
Reporter: What kind of diet do you use to stay in shape? Clint, leaping out of an air vent: You know, I’ve been thinking of trying paleo, but this is all natural. Pizza for days, baby. Keeping aliens from destroying the world tends to burn a few calories.
Going to work out with Nat (or just chat with Nat while she annihilates things) at coincidentally the same time Steve is there. When he sees you enter he becomes instantly captivated by your work out gear, making his fist goes straight through his punching bag, the noise of sand pouring out grabbing your and Nat’s attention while Steve goes bright red realizing that he did and looking like a deer in the head lights before saying he will go clean that up and mumbling how he should ask Tony to make better ones as he quickly shuffles out of the room being sure not to slip any more glances at you or Natasha
The debate would start while having a Harry Potter marathon (the millionth and fourth one) You’d probably end up deciding he’s a GryffinHuffleClaw or something “Because Pete, you’re sweet and caring as a Hufflepuff, smart as a Ravenclaw and brave like a Gryffindor” you tap his nose each word Peter snuggles up to you more pulling the blanket around him better “What about Slytherin?” you comb your fingers through his hair “I’ll be the Slytherin to your Hufflepuff and punch anyone who bothers you”
I saw a spidey underwear set, red and blue webbed with his mask on the right cup and just imagine if Peter walks into your room (or flies through the open window) and sees you standing by your dresser in that. he’d just. faint. actually probably choke, stutter, trip and fall on his face, crazy hand gestures all within seconds, then pass out. you can’t help but giggle at the poor unconscious boy on your floor
Peter Parker is such a dork though? C’mon and if you know about him being Spidey (which you will, Peter Parker is literally the worst at lying) think of him knowing you like a certain hero a lot, so at the fight in Germany he’s swinging around, his phone webbed to one hand taking pictures and selfies to send you mid swing. Probably trying to get your favorites to wave or say hi to the camera because “My girlfriend is a huge fan! could you just wave at the-” before he gets hit by Redwing or giant Scott
when he gets back from Germany and you’re trying to help patch him up but he keeps squirming because he’s too excited and fangirling about everyone he saw and that he held Captain America’s shield “Can you believe it (Y/n)? I held THE Captain America’s shield! and he talked to me too! and there was this guy with a really cool metal arm, and one dude was like a cat, the Scarlet Witch was there too! and this one guy was really tiny but he got really big so I-” ‘Peter quit moving for one second! Please’
“But (Y/n) you don’t understand, it was so cool! and the new suit Mr. Stark gave me is so much more superhero-y than my old one, it’s a bit tight around-I’m not complaining though! I just need to work on my landings, and did I tell you about the Black Widow being there? and- ow, that’s still sore.” “Sorry Peter, but getting hit with a truck will usually do that to you.” you say, pressing the ice pack against his sore arm "Also, you remember we have a test this week, right?“ Peter’s eyes widen in panic "WHAT?! oh no my homework!” *he screeches before scrambling towards his desk and fumbling for his backpack.
“Oh Peter.”
When Peter is too banged up after patrolling all night and is insisting that no, ‘he can’t take the night off (Y/n) what if someone gets hurt?’ even though “Peter you’re a walking bruise and I’m pretty sure you broke your everything. Twice.” but he still keeps resisting you huff, pick up his shooters from the desk and web him to the furniture. Or cocoon style and he basically has to cuddle, and falls asleep within seconds anyway
