THAT CONVERSATION WAS... ⠀unfolding most unexpectedly. Pietro thought his comment from prior would upset the other, but instead they make that offer. One that was hard to turn down. “Please.” He answered, raising his empty cup with a spark in his eyes. What feelings lie inside?

“I know my visit is kinda random, but i hope it's not unwanted. The last thing i want is to be a bother.”

The Avengers' unity division was building a new sub-team, and for some reason they showed interest in adding the stranger standing before Pietro right now. He was supposed to make the invitation sound tempting, but even with all his eloquence, the other seemed like the true wordsmith. Could he do it? And more importantly, why did they want to add this guy?

"It's not a problem. You're never a bother to me," Eddie replied with a smile on his face as he filled Pietro's cup with the drink of his choice.

He was a bit curious of the reason why he was visiting him in the first place, although he wasn't mad about it. Free time was something Eddie had more of due to the massive case he was previously working on being solved.

"I don't mind ya being here of course, I just wanted to ask ya if there was a reason why. Is there somethin' serious going on? Do ya need help with anything?"

#question-marked #this is a peculiar alliance.......

“I'm here with an offer.” He began, watching as the glass cup was filled.

His hyperactive mind couldn't help but wonder if he'd fill it to the brim or less than half empty. It was something Pietro always did, he lived in the exaggeration or the lack thereof. Never the in-between.

“I'm part of the Avengers, and recently our team decided to create a sub-team to promote inclusion...” The hero added, seconds before gulping down some of his drink. “In the team we have all sorts of operatives, from metahumans, to mages, humans, or even from some walks of life! Anyways, what i mean is...”

Setting his cup down over the table where they were seated around, he finally said it. “We want you on the team. My boss got word of and seems rather interested in your investigative skills. What do you say?”

Ali, covered in glitter, wearing basically a bikini top and short shorts, and exhausted from three encores, made her way to the oasis or peace that was her dressing room.

All she wanted was to scrub as much glitter off as she could (it never all left her) and pull on some sweats so she could board her tour bus and sleep. Well, work then sleep.

But she knew something was off the second she closed the door behind her. She couldn’t quite put her finger on it though.

“Look if you want an autograph you have to line up like everyone else at a meet and greet,” she called out, assuming it was a wayward fan.

DEEP BLUE EYES... ⠀go wide at her sudden change. She clearly wasn't buying what he was selling, or rather ── attempting to sell. The mention of his father too, it all culminates into a hasty decision.

“Leave that man out of this! I'm my own man ── It's me who's standing here right now. You can't even handle me, why would you feel the need to bite for bigger fish?” He snarled through scraping teeth. Quicksilver's eyes burned with something that was hard to name, rage? contempt? anguish?

Overrun in the heat of emotions, he creeps closer, threatening. “I don't want to fight you over a fucking stone, but I'm not entirely opposed to if the situation calls for it.”

THE BROTHERHOOD... ⠀were searching for a very specific shard, which they soon learned that a member of the X-Men had it. Pietro was sent to do get the item, no matter the cost ── and he had no intention of returning empty handed. He felt like they were mocking him, giving him a four-day time limit to return with it. The speedster intendto only take a few minutes and shut their mouths once and for all.

The shard was one of the many that the evil group needed, for 'something far greater' as their leader stated. Personally Pietro didn't care ── all he knew was that the shard piece could control the wind. Was the X-Men in possession of it using that power? It was none other than Dazzler. So he suited up and left.

Quicksilver sped past the outstanding performer, just as she opened the door. His voice rang out from behind her, “I'm not here for something as silly as that. You, missy, have something you're not supposed to have. Give it to me while I'm still playing nice.”

With strong arms crossed over his torso, just above his chest, he tried to seem intimidating, but truth be told he was mildly stressed. What was that stone? Why did she have it?

Not far from her now, his eyes narrowed down at the other, taking in her appearance and demeanor. Her job seemed like a lot of fun, it made Pietro wonder if she had any worries at all. He always assumed the X-folks to be a bunch of self-righteous do-gooders, but there was something else about Dazzler ── paint him a shade of curious. She wasn't just attractive and had a lovely voice, but there was clearly something off about her.

“So, how's this gonna be? The easy or the hard way. Tip: the hard way isn't nice.”

“Oh, it’s you. Gross. Feel free to get the fuck out,” she said cheerily, pointing a perfectly manicured pink nail at him and then at the door.

“What I have or don’t have is none of your goddamn business. And if I’m not supposed to have it you definitely aren’t.”

For a woman in nothing more than a bikini she was remarkably calm and in control.

“So again, leave.” The ‘or else’ was implied by her now less friendly tone.

“Bye-bye, Pietro. Better luck next time with your dumbass group of second string washouts.”

HER REACTION WASN'T... received well. It was evident on his face as his teeth gritted. And his gaze, which was cast as a leer at first, was now an accusing glare. “How dare you! ── Do your goody two-shoes friends know you have it?” He spat, assuming she didn't tell them either. That could backfire too, he wasn't the best with mind games.

“Do you think they'd let you keep it if they knew? ...Do you even know what it could do?”

Pietro rushed forward at her threat, in the blink of an eye he grabbed her arm. “I will not ask again, Dazzler.”

“If you leave a bruise, I’m suing you for everything you have,” she replied coolly, yanking her arm away from him.

“Your grandkids will still be in debt when I get through with you.”

She brushed her arm off like she was afraid she’d catch something from him. Mostly only glitter fluttered to the floor. But there was also a bunch on his hand.

“Oh, enjoy the glitter, it neeeeever comes off.”

WORDS COULDN'T DESCRIBE... ⠀how much he hated her cheeky approach, but hated the fact he found it kind of cute. Of course Pietro would never give her the satisfaction of hearing that, his pride was too great for it.

This wasn't how he had pictured it unfolding ── it was irritating, he was getting impatient. “Bold of you to assume that, what do you know about me?” Was she hearing rumors? That wasn't good.

He eyed his hand, now covered in glitter before trying to dust it off against the fabric of his suit. “Are you serious? What the heck is this made of?” Great, the last thing he needed was a souvenir from this.

“Tch! Whatever. Let's make a trade then. What do you want for the shard?”

“Looks like we’re in this together now.”

❛ You call that a punch? Try again. Harder. ❜

❛ Careful—if you keep touching me like that, I’ll forget this is just training. ❜

❛ You’re supposed to disarm me, not pin me down. ❜

❛ If you wanted to get me on the ground, there are easier ways. ❜

❛ Oh, so now you’re blushing? Didn’t expect that from you. ❜

❛ Don’t hold back just because I’m close. Hit me. ❜

❛ You like this too much to call it practice. ❜

❛ You’re bleeding. …and you’re smiling about it? ❜

Clash & Proximity

❛ Stop moving—if you do, I’ll let you go. Maybe. ❜

❛ You’re enjoying this way more than you should. ❜

❛ I could feel your heartbeat when I had you pinned. ❜

❛ You’re supposed to block, not get distracted every time I breathe. ❜

❛ Funny how you only get serious when I get close. ❜

❛ Is this still a fight, or are we pretending it is? ❜

❛ If you wanted to touch me, you could’ve just asked. ❜

❛ That smirk’s going to get you in trouble. ❜

❛ You’re trembling. Adrenaline or something else? ❜

❛ You’ve got a death wish standing that close. Or maybe just a bad idea. ❜

Verbal Sparring & Tension

❛ What’s wrong—afraid I’ll beat you? Or that I won’t stop when I do? ❜

❛ Keep taunting me and I might forget to pull my punches. ❜

❛ You talk too much. Let’s see if I can change that. ❜

❛ Didn’t realize arrogance was one of your fighting styles. ❜

❛ Don’t act so calm—you’re shaking. I can feel it. ❜

❛ You like pushing me, don’t you? ❜

❛ Admit it—you only challenged me so you’d have an excuse to touch me. ❜

❛ I thought you were dangerous. Turns out you’re just distracting. ❜

❛ You keep saying this is training, but you keep looking at my mouth. ❜

❛ Try again. And stop pretending you don’t want to. ❜

Pinned & Breathless

❛ You should really get off me… unless you plan to stay there. ❜

❛ You gonna move, or are you enjoying the view? ❜

❛ You’re heavy. …Don’t you dare move. ❜

❛ Your hand’s still on me. Not that I mind. ❜

❛ Is this where you finally admit you like losing to me? ❜

❛ You can let go now. …anytime. ❜

❛ I said training, not straddling. ❜

❛ If anyone walks in right now, I’m blaming you. ❜

❛ Don’t look at me like that. You’ll make me forget we’re supposed to be fighting. ❜

❛ I thought this was about technique, not temptation. ❜

Aftermath & Smolder

❛ You’ve got blood on your lip. …Here, let me— ❜

❛ You hit harder than you should. I liked it. ❜

❛ I should hate how close that was. But I don’t. ❜

❛ You’re shaking. Here—catch your breath. ❜

❛ For someone who swears they don’t care, you sure looked worried when I fell. ❜

❛ You didn’t have to pull me that close. ❜

❛ I’ve fought a lot of people. None of them ever looked at me like that. ❜

❛ Are we still sparring, or… something else? ❜

❛ Tell me you didn’t feel that too. ❜

❛ Maybe next time, we skip the weapons. ❜

Insomnia

❝ Can’t sleep again… do you ever feel like your brain just won’t let you rest? ❞

❝ It’s 3 a.m. and I swear the walls are whispering my name. ❞

❝ Another sleepless night. I think I’m starting to forget what normal feels like. ❞

❝ I’ve counted sheep, read books, stared at the ceiling… nothing works. ❞

❝ You awake too? Maybe insomnia is contagious. ❞

Groggy Mornings

❝ Don’t talk to me before coffee. Actually… don’t talk to me at all. ❞

❝ How is it morning already? I feel like I just closed my eyes. ❞

❝ I think I slept with my eyes open again. ❞

❝ Why does the world insist on being awake while I’m still half-dead? ❞

❝ I’m running on three hours of sleep and too much caffeine. Help me. ❞

Late-night Wandering

❝ I shouldn’t be awake, but here I am… wandering the streets like a zombie. ❞

❝ Why do my thoughts sound louder at night? ❞

❝ I can’t stop pacing… maybe someone should stop me before I go insane. ❞

❝ The world is quiet at night… except in my head. ❞

❝ I don’t even remember what it’s like to just sleep. ❞

Coffee & Desperation

❝ I need caffeine… yesterday. ❞

❝ Don’t judge me for three cups before 9 a.m. I need survival tactics. ❞

❝ I may be awake, but I’m definitely not functioning. ❞

❝ You feel that? That’s me vibrating from too much energy and too little sleep. ❞

❝ Coffee is my lifeline… don’t take it away. ❞

Bed & Chaos

❝ I think I just slept in the wrong position… my body hates me. ❞

❝ Half my blankets are on the floor, but I can’t bother moving. ❞

❝ I just fell asleep sitting up… should I be proud or worried? ❞

❝ My alarm went off an hour ago. I’m still not moving. ❞

❝ I swear my pillow is judging me for failing to rest properly. ❞

Mind Racing

❝ Why am I thinking about that moment from ten years ago? At 2 a.m.? ❞

❝ I can’t sleep because my brain decided to rewatch every embarrassing thing I’ve ever done. ❞

❝ Sleep would be nice… if only my thoughts would stop arguing. ❞

❝ My imagination refuses to shut off. Can someone hit “pause” for me? ❞

❝ I’m wide awake and it’s entirely the fault of my overthinking. ❞

Conflict & Confrontation

“You really think I’d ever trust you again after what you did?”

“Careful. You’re standing awfully close for someone who swore they hated me.”

“Every time I see your face, I remember exactly why I can’t stand you.”

“You’ve got some nerve showing up here after everything.”

“I hate how you always make me feel like the villain.”

“We’re supposed to be working together, not killing each other.”

“Say what you want, but you wouldn’t be this angry if you didn’t still care.”

“You think I don’t see through you? I know exactly what game you’re playing.”

Tension & Proximity

“If you keep glaring at me like that, people will start to think we’re flirting.”

“You’re bleeding. Sit down. I didn’t say I cared, I said you’re bleeding.”

“Stop moving. The enemy will hear you—and I’m not carrying you out of here again.”

“Why do you always have to stand this close when we argue?”

“You hate me so much, yet here you are—protecting me.”

“If you want me gone, say it. Otherwise, stop looking at me like that.”

“Admit it—you’d rather fight me than be alone with your thoughts.”

“You don’t get to call me that name. Not anymore.”

Allies by Necessity

“The irony of fighting side by side with you isn’t lost on me.”

“We need to focus on surviving this, not each other.”

“You saved my life—why?”

“We both know this alliance will fall apart the second we win.”

“If I die out here, don’t you dare pretend to mourn me.”

“You’re the last person I wanted watching my back, but… I guess I’m glad you did.”

“I didn’t ask for your help.” — “You didn’t have to.”

Cracks in the Armor

“For someone who hates me, you sure can’t stop looking at me.”

“I told myself I wouldn’t care if you got hurt, but I lied.”

“I should hate you. I want to hate you.”

“Don’t touch me—because if you do, I won’t stop you.”

“You think this changes anything? It doesn’t. I still can’t stand you.”

“You kissed me just to shut me up, didn’t you?”

“I can’t decide if I want to kill you or kiss you.”

“You always said I’d be the death of you. Maybe you were right.”

Emotional Wounds & Betrayal

“You took everything from me—and I still can’t let you go.”

“You betrayed me. You don’t get to act like the victim.”

“Why did you save me? Guilt? Pity?”

“You said you’d never lie to me. Was that just another lie?”

“All that hatred—does it make it easier to forget what we used to be?”

“You left me to die. Do you know what that does to a person?”

“You were the one person I was supposed to destroy. Instead, you ruined me.”

Quiet Moments Between Chaos

“Don’t look at me like that. I can’t fight you when you look at me like that.”

“I don’t remember when I stopped hating you.”

“You’re the last person I expected to see here.”

“I hate that I trust you more than anyone else.”

“We could pretend—just for tonight—that none of this ever happened.”

“Every time I think I’ve forgotten you, you find a way to remind me.”

“I don’t know what scares me more—that I want you, or that you might want me too.”

“If we survive this, what then? Do we go back to being enemies… or something else?”

Teasing & Seduction

❝ Can’t stop looking at you… is it distracting, or am I just imagining it? ❞

❝ You’re playing dangerously close to my patience… and I’m not sure I want you to stop. ❞

❝ Careful… the closer you get, the harder it is to think straight. ❞

❝ Is that a challenge I see in your eyes, or am I hoping it’s one? ❞

❝ You know exactly what effect you have on me, don’t you? ❞

Magnetic Tension

❝ Every time you speak, my attention refuses to wander elsewhere. ❞

❝ Don’t think I haven’t noticed the way you move. ❞

❝ You brush past me again and I swear… my heart skips. ❞

❝ Keep teasing me like that, and I might just have to react. ❞

❝ I can’t tell if I should be angry or… enjoying this too much. ❞

Intimate Closeness

❝ Stay a little closer. Just for now. ❞

❝ Don’t move. I’m memorizing every detail. ❞

❝ You’re warm… and I’m not sure I want to let go. ❞

❝ Your voice sounds different when it’s just for me. ❞

❝ One look from you, and suddenly I forget how to breathe. ❞

Dark Playfulness / Danger

❝ You like flirting with danger… do you enjoy it as much as I do? ❞

❝ I could hurt you… but I’d rather have you want it. ❞

❝ You’re tempting fate by standing so close. ❞

❝ Don’t get too comfortable… I like keeping you on edge. ❞

❝ You’re playing a game I might just let you win. ❞

Aftermath / Lingering Glances

❝ Don’t think I forgot the look you gave me earlier… ❞

❝ You left me thinking about you longer than I care to admit. ❞

❝ Even when you’re gone, I feel you here. ❞

❝ I can’t decide if I want to run or stay… and that’s your fault. ❞

❝ I’d follow you anywhere… even where I know I shouldn’t. ❞
