Bob Reynolds

Yea uhh, hi. I’m not the other guy

[ignore-the-void]

Hey! Hi, uh I’m Bob! Nice to meet you. Um, you probably don’t know me, or if you do, it’s because of my worse half. But he’s gone. I think. I’m like 98% sure we don’t have to worry about him anymore.

Anyway like I said I’m Bob. I’m 20 years old and part of a pretty cool team made up of assassins and they’re really nice. We all live in this really big tower Valentina bought us. Oh and I’m not… part of the team. I handle the dishes and everything but if I use my powers, The Void will come back.

Oh yeah I have powers. Thanks to some experiments I’ve got a lot of them actually. Flight, invincibility, a handful of other things. It doesn’t really matter because I don’t use them.

I was born in Sarasota Springs, Florida to a… broken family. My dad wasn’t the greatest. Neither was my mom. I dropped outta school in eighth grade and lived on the streets for a bit. Don’t recommend that you get addicted to meth and work as a sign spinner for a bail bonds company. It… doesn’t end well.

Eventually I committed a few crimes, yada yada, more drugs, sadness, etc etc. let’s move on shall we?

I got really low and signed up for these tests. It was supposed to make me a better person. A perfect person. I guess it kinda worked cause I got powers. It came with side effects, like i mentioned. He’s called the void. He’s a really scary guy, you don’t wanna meet him.

I’m dating the lovely @yelena-white-widow. She was the nicest person I met since… ever and she’s taken me and been so kind. It’s a pleasure to be able to know her and be her boyfriend

But that’s pretty much me! I’m looking forward to meeting everyone here!

Heyyyyy, mod here. This is SFW blog so relax yourself. Keep ur dick in your pants and your tits in your shirt.

Obviously, this blog will contain spoilers for thunderbolts.

Also, i will be portraying my version of Bob as someone who struggles with depression in real life. So he will not always be happy go-lucky. There may be some triggering subjects discussed but i will make sure to tag any posts that include them.

The account I use as my main is @insomniac-lifestyle. Don’t be shy to say hi. I don’t bite (not a lot at least)

“Bob, bob, bob, BOBBY!” Rowan kept texting him non-stop while she bounced in place right in front of the new Avengers Tower. She really, really hoped no one inside would notice her acting like an overexcited bunny while she waited for her friend.

— @rowtrckstr

Bobs phone buzzes relentlessly in his pocket and he pulls it out to see texts from Rowan. He glances outside and actually sees her standing outside the building.

He chuckles to himself as he stands up and stretches before sending her a message.

Bob: I’ll be down in a second to let you in.

He heads the elevator and travels to the ground floor, stepping out and waving to his friend. “What brings you around here?” He asks as he opens the door for her

[rowtrckstr]

Rowan was doing little excited hops when she finally saw her friend coming out. She had so much energy she could probably run around the entire building a few times. “ZOO. MOVIE. THAT MOVIE. THE SECOND ONE. WANNA SEE IT?!”

Rowan's appearance below

[ignore-the-void]

“Oh Zootopia?” Bob asks. “Yea I’ve been meaning to go see it. I’m waiting till I get paid first though. Have you seen it yet?” He smiles at how excited she is, her joy rubbing off on him

[rowtrckstr]

“YESSSS! ZOOTOPIA! I absolutely love that fox — and his voice!” Rowan answered, still bouncing a little in front of him.

“I can pay if you want! We can totally watch it! I mean, you’ve already paid for so many things… I can cover this one and we can see it together. Whatcha think?” Her excitement made her voice come out squeaky.

[ignore-the-void]

Bob shrugs. “Sure, why not!” He smile as he pulls out his phone to check his calendar. “I’ve got nothing planned today. Wanna go now?”

[rowtrckstr]

"OH, HELL YESSS!!" She answers, grabbing her own phone to check the movie's schedule. "We can go to this one, it will be plenty of time to get there and buy some snacks before"

[ignore-the-void]

“Perfect,” Bob claps his hands together and checks that he has everything he needs in his pockets. “Lead the way sis,” he holds the door to the outside open for her to lead him to the theater, still not fully knowing how to navigate New York’s streets

[yelena-white-widow]

Bob stands outside Yelena’s door one night, shaking his head to remove the snow from his hair. In his hands, he’s holding a bag full of popcorn, sodas, and DVDs of all her favorite movies. He wanted to make sure everything was perfect. He smooths out his sweater before knocking on the door. He steps back and smiles softly, waiting for her to open the door.

@ignore-the-void

Yelena is curled up on the couch, and his timing was perfect. Her episode on her favourite series just ended. She pauses, stuffing a chip in her mouth, and she sees a shadow moving under her door.

She tosses her blanket aside and stands up with a stretch, rolling her neck before opening her front door to see him. "Oh- Bob!" She smiles, and her eyes move to the bag in his hand. She steps aside. "Come in."

[ignore-the-void]

“Hey Yelena,” he walks in and gives her a peck on the cheek. He takes in the cosy scene in front of him. “You look like you were nice and comfy.” He placed the bag on the dining table.

He reaches into it and pulls out a small Tupperware of Mac and cheese. “To sweeten the deal I brought this! Made it myself!”

[yelena-white-widow]

"Oh good!" She tilts her head a little, locking the door behind them and she crosses her arms. "I burnt at least 5 pounds of macncheese yesterday." She walks over to him, moving some hair from his face.

"Is there an occasion? Or did you just wanna hang out?" She puts her hands on her hips, and shes smiling softly. She was happy to see him.

[ignore-the-void]

“Nothing special,” he shrugs setting the mac and cheese to the side. He starts pulling out everything else from the bag. “It was John’s turn to cook dinner today and I wanted out the tower.” He sets some sodas along with popcorn to the side. “Besides, it’s been a while since I’ve seen you darling,” he looks up at her sans smile, shaking his head to get his hair out of his face.

“How have you been?” He asks, looking back into the bag to grab the chocolate.

[yelena-white-widow]

She moves away to her fridge, on some magnets were kids drawing - but a little too well drawn to be from kids. Most likely something she was drawing herself. "Oh yea, John's cooking is a nightmare." She pulls out some hotsauce, setting it on the counter.

She reaches into a top cabinet, pulling out two glasses. "Ive been good. It gets a little quiet, but sometimes I get visitors." She sets the glasses on the counter also before grabbing some ice from her freezer, filling the cups.

[ignore-the-void]

“It’s a real nice setup you got here,” he says. “Really feels like home,” he takes in the plants scatters around the kitchen, all healthy and thriving. “Looks like you got a green thumb!” He walks over to one above the sink. “What’s type is this little guy?”

[yelena-white-widow]

"Jade." She opens her hot sauce, and grabs the container with macncheese, adding some until it felt right. "Its a succulent so its pretty easy to take care of." After adding the sauce, she puts it back in the fridge and goes back over to the couch with the container. "I figured taking care of something living was a good idea. It keeps me coming home." She takes a bite of her food. "What movie were you wanting?"

[ignore-the-void]

“That’s an amazing idea,” Bob takes all the DVDs out of his bag and lays them on the table. “Well, I’m catching up on Disney movies and was wondering is you wanted to join me? I got Finding Nemo, Ratatouille, and Tangled. Which would you like?”

He holds up the DVDs so she can see. “I also brought popcorn if you wanted any while we watch”

[yelena-white-widow]

"You could totally play live action Ratatouille." She giggles a little. "Let's watch the cooking rat, I haven't seen it in years."

"And popcorn sounds nice." She nods, and pats the spot next to her. "Then lets get comfy."

[ignore-the-void]

“Heads up!” He calls out and tosses the disc to her. “Pop it into the TV and I’ll get the popcorn going.”

He throws the popcorn in the microwave and checks out the drawing hanging on the fridge while he waits. When the beep goes off he pulls open the door and pours it into a bowl. “Butter or no butter?” He asks her

[yelena-white-widow]

"Always butter." She smiles, getting off the couch and setting her macncheese on the coffee table before kneeling in front of the TV and letting her player suck in the movie disk. "And salt if you like salt." She stands up, going back to the couch and grabbing her remote as the play screen shows on the TV.

[ignore-the-void]

Bob throws some butter and salt on the popcorn before walking over and sitting on the couch next to Yelena. He lets out a sigh as he relaxes on the couch. “Where’s the remote?” He asks looking under the pillows near him

[calypso-boudreaux]

I don’t listen to either of my dads soooo, I’m not sure that means anything.

/I love my dads very much. My choice to ignore their suggestions is because I am very independent not because I have something against them/

[yelena-white-widow]

My dad microwaves forks for fun, I do not listen to him.

[calypso-boudreaux]

Ahhh!!! The pretty Russian lady is talking to me!!!

Im sorry..umm um , what do you mean microwaves forks??

[yelena-white-widow]

Like he takes a fork, puts it in a microwave, beep beep boop, turns it on, brrrrrrr, then boom.

[calypso-boudreaux]

No I just mean why would he think that’s a good idea?? What would make that funnn???

[yelena-white-widow]

He doesnt think that it is a good idea. That is why he does it.

You have no idea what I have to endure when you’re not here to stop him

[sunflower-0180]

“Hey Anna!” Bob says walking out from the kitchen. “Val just paid us. You wanna go to the mall?”

@ignore-the-void

“Hell yes I do!! Wait…… I don’t work for her or anything, I just hang around sometimes, and I got about $50 in my wallet. Should I run home and get some more money out of my lockbox?” *They glanced up from their book, sitting up from their spot on the couch.*

[ignore-the-void]

“No, it’s fine. I can pay for you.” Bob grins. “I don’t spend a lot of money on myself anyway,”

[sunflower-0180]

“Bob!! No, I can’t let you pay for me, shit in the mall is expensive!! It’s not like we’re going to a thrift store, c’mon man, I-“

[ignore-the-void]

Bob cuts them off. “Don’t worry about it.” He says. “I get paid for literally doing nothing. I can spend it on you”

[sunflower-0180]

*They sigh, because he’s using his ‘really don’t argue with me’ tone, so they nod and stand up, heading for the door.* “Oh did you check to see if your shoes fit today?”

[ignore-the-void]

Bob rolls his eyes. “Yes they fit wonderfully. Pass me the keys would ya?” He puts a jacket on and holds his hands out for the keys

[sunflower-0180]

*They swing them above their head, yanking them away quickly with a laugh.* “Mmm, make me.”

[ignore-the-void]

He rolls his eyes. “It’s the keys or walk 30 blocks to the mall. Which do you want?”

[sunflower-0180]

“Well, if you get the keys, we don’t have to walk. And I don’t think you want to walk. So c’mon, Mr. Invincible, how are you letting an elf sized person keep keys from you?” *They taunted playfully, quickly dodging around him to wave the keys again.*

[ignore-the-void]

Bob stares at the keys and holds his hand out, using his telekinesis to rip them out of Anna’s hand. “Look at that. Easy.” He says with a smirk

[sunflower-0180]

“YoI asshole.” *They laughed, but opened the door, glancing at the stairs.* “I can meet you down there if you want to take the elevator.”

[ignore-the-void]

“I’ve been meaning to ask,” Bob checks that he has everything in his pockets. “What’s your thing with elevators?”

[sunflower-0180]

“The elevator got stuck when I was going to workout a while ago, and I got so panicked that I passed out in it. I called dad, and was really grateful I did, because when I passed out I dropped my phone and broke it. When I woke up, I tried to call you, but the call wouldn’t go through.” *They glanced back at him, not sure if he was going to follow them, but they started to sing under their breath to help keep them calm and not thinking about it too much.*

[ignore-the-void]

Bob follows them down the stairs. “I’m sorry” he says. “I completely understand now. Stairs are fine with me” he smirks

[sunflower-0180]

*Well duh, you’ve carried me up flights of stairs before, stairs aren’t a problem for you.” *They glare at the sign that says there’s two more flights and cross their arms across their chest as they mutter under their breath* “Personal forklift, my ass.”

[ignore-the-void]

“It’s good exercise,” he smiles at them, going down the stairs quickly. “Last one to the bottom is a rotten egg”

[sunflower-0180]

“That’s not fair, your legs are way longer than mine!” *They ran as fast as they could, trying to move around him, and tripped over their shoes, yelping* “Oh fuck!”

[ignore-the-void]

Bob quickly moves to catch them in his arms and then asks “you ready?” Before they can respond he leaps over the railing of the stairs and lands on the bottom floor without harm. “Looks like we both win,” he says with a grin

[sunflower-0180]

*They don’t even have time to scream before they’re already on the floor again. They just look up at him blankly and say* “My fingers are locked onto your shirt. And you owe me a banana split for that. Jesus, I don’t think my heart is working anymore.” *They tried to unlock their fingers and groan.* “I need help, but please be gentle.”

[ignore-the-void]

Bob smiles softly and gently helps them unclench their hands. “Banana split on me. Got it,” he gently places them down on the ground, holding his arm out in case they needed to steady themselves on him

[sunflower-0180]

*They grab onto him again to take a minute, and look back up at him* “Well, at least we know that we can get down the stairs really fast, if we need to do that again. Or y’know, use that to get away from people.” *They thought for a second.* “How did you know for sure that we were gonna be fine?”

[ignore-the-void]

Bob concentrates for a moment and slowly levitates off the ground. “I can fly. We weren’t gonna hit the ground” he explains, throwing an arm over their shoulder. “Come on, lets go,”

[sunflower-0180]

*They smack their forehead* “Right, duh, I forgot. Where’s your car? And ooh, you should teach me to drive!!” *They look at him with a small smirk wondering what his reaction will be to that.*

[ignore-the-void]

Bob scoffs. “You don’t want that. There’s a reason I don’t have a license” he says, opening the car door for them

[sunflower-0180]

“You don’t have a…..wait, but you’re gonna drive us to the mall??” *They climb in, buckling up and staring at him in shock.*

[ignore-the-void]

“Hard to get a license when youre a druggy living on the street” Bob jokes. “Don’t worry, I won’t crash” he gets into the car and starts it up

[sunflower-0180]

“Oh gods, this is it. This is how I go out. Tell my mama and dad I love them.” *They dramatically put their hand on their forehead, giggling.*

[ignore-the-void]

“Hey,” Bob does an exaggerated frown. “I’ve never been in an accident before. The curb does seem to be magnetic though”

[sunflower-0180]

“The curb or the car, because one of them is definitely magnetic.” *They stick their tongue out at him, giggling, then immediately tense up. Oh fuck, they haven’t told him about their mutation yet.* “Ummm, I need to tell you something.”

[ignore-the-void]

“What’s up buttercup?” He asks, turning onto the street and immediately hitting traffic

[sunflower-0180]

“Why do you like calling me buttercup? And that’s not what I need to tell you. I…. I have a mutation. Mama calls it being an empath? I can sense and feel people’s emotions and I can send emotions to them, sometimes I can switch them too. I also…. oh fuck…. I also can see and feel words that are related to the emotions.” *They tense, waiting for his reaction, glancing at the door and considering ditching.*

[ignore-the-void]

“Cause you remind be a lot of princess buttercup from the princess bride. Also it rhymes.” He chuckles as he answers. He listens intently as they describe their mutation to him. “That’s… amazing!” He finally says. “That can be so useful with this team of ptsd infused assassins!” And himself but he wasn’t going to bring that up

[sunflower-0180]

*They look up at him, a teeny bit confused because there wasn’t any hesitation, there wasn’t any nervousness, he was just….. fine with it?? That…. that can’t be right.* “Well, I’m taking that as the compliment it’s intended to be. And ummm, you’re not mad at me? Or like….. nervous around me?”

[ignore-the-void]

“Why would I be? Hell I feel safer,” he smiles widely at them. “You can control emotions. You can keep… the other guy from showing up” he stars driving again as the light turns green. “You can keep me in check. Why would I be mad about that?”

[sunflower-0180]

“I…….you’re the first person to react like this, I’m just…. I’m so confused.” *They continue to stare at him in shock, shocked even more by the fact that he was telling the truth.*

[ignore-the-void]

“Why would anyone be mad about it?” He asks, genuinely confused. “This is an amazing power. You can solve conflicts non-violently. This is amazing” the more Bob talks the happier he gets. “You’re probably these most important person on this team with that power”

[sunflower-0180]

“I’m not on the team, dude. I just come over and hang out with you and Yelena, or you guys separately. But yes, I’ve….. solved conflicts like that before.” *They can tell he’s getting happier and they start to get happier too.* “You’re actually okay with this, aren’t you.”

[ignore-the-void]

“You’re an honorary team member. Like me” Bob smiles. “Of course I’m okay with this. This is amazing news”

[sunflower-0180]

“You’re the first person who’s reacted like this. Like you’re okay and excited about this. Everyone else gets nervous and hesitant around me, and instantly decide that I would want to read their mind.” *They’re still confused but are starting to get more happy.* “So what do you want to loo at first at the mall?”

[ignore-the-void]

“Well others have things to hide. Me? I’m an open book. A sad open book but an open book nonetheless.” He pulls into the parking lot for the mall and starts searching for a spot. “There’s a nice hotdog place that just opened. Wanna try it out?”

[sunflower-0180]

“That sounds really good, I’m really hungry.” *They glanced around, trying to help him find a spot and point at one.* “Is that too narrow?”

[ignore-the-void]

Bob glances at it. “Nope that should be good,” he pulls into the parking spot and turns off the car. He opens his door and runs around to get Anna’s as well. “Follow, I know a short cut”

[sunflower-0180]

“Thank you, kind sir.” *They playfully curtsy and reach for his hand.* “I forgot to add, the mutation is hella overwhelming in crowded areas. So basically, I’m gonna be magnetized to your side the whole time.”

[ignore-the-void]

“Sounds like a plan,” he says, nudging them with his shoulder. “Hopefully with time you can learn to control your powers a bit more.”

They both walk into the mall and Bob leads them to the hot dog place. “Order whatever you’d like. It’s on me”

[sunflower-0180]

*They quickly order and try to sneakily pick at some of their scabs while he’s not looking. They flinch as someone stepped into them and hiss as their nails dig in a little harder than planned. They hear him clear his throat and grumble under their breath.*

[ignore-the-void]

Bob looks over from his hot dog when he hears them hiss in pain. “You okay?” He asks, his brow creasing in worry

[sunflower-0180]

“Mmhm.” *They quickly hid their wrist, giggling a little as they remembered the first time they had really hung out, after he had to reset their wrist.*

[ignore-the-void]

“Why are you hiding your wrist like a 5 year old who was caught with candy?” Bob asks

[sunflower-0180]

“No reason?” *Their voice gets a little higher pitched at the end of their sentence, and they try to figure out if there’s a store they can beat him to while they wait for the bleeding to slow down.*

[ignore-the-void]

“Hmm, likely story” Bob holds his hand out. “Let me see your wrist” he says, the words similar to the first time he took care of her

[sunflower-0180]

*They glance over his shoulder and their eyes widen in shock. What kind of store was that? Wrist forgotten, they hurried around him and made a beeline towards it, and their nose scratched in confusion and embarrassment. Oh. It was a sex store. Wait, what the hell was that?*

[ignore-the-void]

Bob stands up to go after them. “Anna- ugh” he frowns as he follows them. When he sees the store she’s about to enter he freaks out slightly. “Oh shit- ANNA! Don’t go in there!”

[sunflower-0180]

*They ignore him of course and are rooted to the spot, absolutely dumbfounded. What in the actual fuck? That thing had to be like….that was bigger than their whole arm! And wider too?? What in the actual fuck? And what was that?? They flinched when they felt a hand on their shoulder, and looked up.*

[ignore-the-void]

Bob sighs as he walks in behind and puts a hand on their shoulder to get their attention. “Listen uh… we should probably get outta here”

[sunflower-0180]

“I…..I have so many questions. So many. We can leave, that’s fine, but I have so many questions.” *They felt like they had information overload, and their brain hurt.* “That lady is motioning for us to come over.”

[ignore-the-void]

“Please don’t go, it will make this significantly worse,” bob whines as he sees them walking over to the lady. “Jesus Christ” he mumbles following after them

[sunflower-0180]

“Hi, do you and your boyfriend need anything in particular, or were you just browsing?” *A kind cashier smiled and asked, looking at them and then Bob. Their nose wrinkled in disgust but when they went to speak, they couldn’t and whined.*

**My voice went out, help.**

[ignore-the-void]

Bob wraps a gentle arm around Anna “no thank you,” he says to the cashier. “They’re not in the market for anything like this.” He gently leads them away from the sex shop, putting his hands up to block their peripheral vision so they don’t see anything else.

[sunflower-0180]

** I’m sorry, I thought… it looked like a fun store. That was kinda funny that she assumed we were together. You didn’t deny it.**

*They smirked a little at that.*

[ignore-the-void]

“It’s a fun store depending on who you are,” bob points between the two of them. “Us? Not so fun.” He chuckles. “Yeah people don’t seem to grasp the concept of friendships”

[sunflower-0180]

**There were….. I…..how…..**

*They couldn’t seem to gather their thoughts enough to finish their sentence, and they just stared off into space as they tried to figure out what they wanted to say.*

**Where did you want to go?**

[ignore-the-void]

“Anywhere but the place that sells dildos,” he jokes. “It’s up to you. Dealers choice”

[sunflower-0180]

*Their face goes pale, and then pink.*

**I’m sorry, I didn’t understand what kind of store it was. And I can’t choose, my brain feels like it’s a whirlpool.**

[ignore-the-void]

Bob let’s put a small laugh. “Let go to the book store. I need to get Yelena a gift anyway” he hooks his arm with theirs and starts to walk towards the Barnes & Noble

[sunflower-0180]

*They stumbled a few times, grateful that he was holding onto them.* “What kind of book are we looking for, for Yelena anyways?”

[ignore-the-void]

“She really wants the signed edition of ‘Where the red fern grows’. They’re selling there here” he glances through the aisles of books looking for it

[sunflower-0180]

“Hey Anna!” Bob says walking out from the kitchen. “Val just paid us. You wanna go to the mall?”

@ignore-the-void

“Hell yes I do!! Wait…… I don’t work for her or anything, I just hang around sometimes, and I got about $50 in my wallet. Should I run home and get some more money out of my lockbox?” *They glanced up from their book, sitting up from their spot on the couch.*

[ignore-the-void]

“No, it’s fine. I can pay for you.” Bob grins. “I don’t spend a lot of money on myself anyway,”

[sunflower-0180]

“Bob!! No, I can’t let you pay for me, shit in the mall is expensive!! It’s not like we’re going to a thrift store, c’mon man, I-“

[ignore-the-void]

Bob cuts them off. “Don’t worry about it.” He says. “I get paid for literally doing nothing. I can spend it on you”

[sunflower-0180]

*They sigh, because he’s using his ‘really don’t argue with me’ tone, so they nod and stand up, heading for the door.* “Oh did you check to see if your shoes fit today?”

[ignore-the-void]

Bob rolls his eyes. “Yes they fit wonderfully. Pass me the keys would ya?” He puts a jacket on and holds his hands out for the keys

[sunflower-0180]

*They swing them above their head, yanking them away quickly with a laugh.* “Mmm, make me.”

[ignore-the-void]

He rolls his eyes. “It’s the keys or walk 30 blocks to the mall. Which do you want?”

[sunflower-0180]

“Well, if you get the keys, we don’t have to walk. And I don’t think you want to walk. So c’mon, Mr. Invincible, how are you letting an elf sized person keep keys from you?” *They taunted playfully, quickly dodging around him to wave the keys again.*

[ignore-the-void]

Bob stares at the keys and holds his hand out, using his telekinesis to rip them out of Anna’s hand. “Look at that. Easy.” He says with a smirk

[sunflower-0180]

“YoI asshole.” *They laughed, but opened the door, glancing at the stairs.* “I can meet you down there if you want to take the elevator.”

[ignore-the-void]

“I’ve been meaning to ask,” Bob checks that he has everything in his pockets. “What’s your thing with elevators?”

[sunflower-0180]

“The elevator got stuck when I was going to workout a while ago, and I got so panicked that I passed out in it.

“That’s not fair, your legs are way longer than mine!” *They ran as fast as they could, trying to move around him, and tripped over their shoes, yelping* “Oh fuck!”

[ignore-the-void]

Bob quickly moves to catch them in his arms and then asks “you ready?” Before they can respond he leaps over the railing of the stairs and lands on the bottom floor without harm. “Looks like we both win,” he says with a grin

[sunflower-0180]

*They don’t even have time to scream before they’re already on the floor again. They just look up at him blankly and say* “My fingers are locked onto your shirt. And you owe me a banana split for that. Jesus, I don’t think my heart is working anymore.” *They tried to unlock their fingers and groan.* “I need help, but please be gentle.”

[ignore-the-void]

Bob smiles softly and gently helps them unclench their hands. “Banana split on me. Got it,” he gently places them down on the ground, holding his arm out in case they needed to steady themselves on him

[sunflower-0180]

*They grab onto him again to take a minute, and look back up at him* “Well, at least we know that we can get down the stairs really fast, if we need to do that again. Or y’know, use that to get away from people.” *They thought for a second.* “How did you know for sure that we were gonna be fine?”

[ignore-the-void]

Bob concentrates for a moment and slowly levitates off the ground. “I can fly. We weren’t gonna hit the ground” he explains, throwing an arm over their shoulder. “Come on, lets go,”

[sunflower-0180]

*They smack their forehead* “Right, duh, I forgot. Where’s your car? And ooh, you should teach me to drive!!” *They look at him with a small smirk wondering what his reaction will be to that.*

[ignore-the-void]

Bob scoffs. “You don’t want that. There’s a reason I don’t have a license” he says, opening the car door for them

[sunflower-0180]

“You don’t have a…..wait, but you’re gonna drive us to the mall??” *They climb in, buckling up and staring at him in shock.*

[ignore-the-void]

“Hard to get a license when youre a druggy living on the street” Bob jokes. “Don’t worry, I won’t crash” he gets into the car and starts it up

[sunflower-0180]

“Oh gods, this is it. This is how I go out. Tell my mama and dad I love them.” *They dramatically put their hand on their forehead, giggling.*

[ignore-the-void]

“Hey,” Bob does an exaggerated frown. “I’ve never been in an accident before. The curb does seem to be magnetic though”

[sunflower-0180]

“The curb or the car, because one of them is definitely magnetic.” *They stick their tongue out at him, giggling, then immediately tense up. Oh fuck, they haven’t told him about their mutation yet.* “Ummm, I need to tell you something.”

[ignore-the-void]

“What’s up buttercup?” He asks, turning onto the street and immediately hitting traffic

[sunflower-0180]

“Why do you like calling me buttercup? And that’s not what I need to tell you. I…. I have a mutation. Mama calls it being an empath? I can sense and feel people’s emotions and I can send emotions to them, sometimes I can switch them too. I also…. oh fuck…. I also can see and feel words that are related to the emotions.” *They tense, waiting for his reaction, glancing at the door and considering ditching.*

[ignore-the-void]

“Cause you remind be a lot of princess buttercup from the princess bride. Also it rhymes.” He chuckles as he answers. He listens intently as they describe their mutation to him. “That’s… amazing!” He finally says. “That can be so useful with this team of ptsd infused assassins!” And himself but he wasn’t going to bring that up

[sunflower-0180]

*They look up at him, a teeny bit confused because there wasn’t any hesitation, there wasn’t any nervousness, he was just….. fine with it?? That…. that can’t be right.* “Well, I’m taking that as the compliment it’s intended to be. And ummm, you’re not mad at me? Or like….. nervous around me?”

[ignore-the-void]

“Why would I be? Hell I feel safer,” he smiles widely at them. “You can control emotions. You can keep… the other guy from showing up” he stars driving again as the light turns green. “You can keep me in check. Why would I be mad about that?”

[sunflower-0180]

“I…….you’re the first person to react like this, I’m just…. I’m so confused.” *They continue to stare at him in shock, shocked even more by the fact that he was telling the truth.*

[ignore-the-void]

“Why would anyone be mad about it?” He asks, genuinely confused. “This is an amazing power. You can solve conflicts non-violently. This is amazing” the more Bob talks the happier he gets. “You’re probably these most important person on this team with that power”

[sunflower-0180]

“I’m not on the team, dude. I just come over and hang out with you and Yelena, or you guys separately. But yes, I’ve….. solved conflicts like that before.” *They can tell he’s getting happier and they start to get happier too.* “You’re actually okay with this, aren’t you.”

[ignore-the-void]

“You’re an honorary team member. Like me” Bob smiles. “Of course I’m okay with this. This is amazing news”

[sunflower-0180]

“You’re the first person who’s reacted like this. Like you’re okay and excited about this. Everyone else gets nervous and hesitant around me, and instantly decide that I would want to read their mind.” *They’re still confused but are starting to get more happy.* “So what do you want to loo at first at the mall?”

[ignore-the-void]

“Well others have things to hide. Me? I’m an open book. A sad open book but an open book nonetheless.” He pulls into the parking lot for the mall and starts searching for a spot. “There’s a nice hotdog place that just opened. Wanna try it out?”

[sunflower-0180]

“That sounds really good, I’m really hungry.” *They glanced around, trying to help him find a spot and point at one.* “Is that too narrow?”

[ignore-the-void]

Bob glances at it. “Nope that should be good,” he pulls into the parking spot and turns off the car. He opens his door and runs around to get Anna’s as well. “Follow, I know a short cut”

[sunflower-0180]

“Thank you, kind sir.” *They playfully curtsy and reach for his hand.* “I forgot to add, the mutation is hella overwhelming in crowded areas. So basically, I’m gonna be magnetized to your side the whole time.”

[ignore-the-void]

“Sounds like a plan,” he says, nudging them with his shoulder. “Hopefully with time you can learn to control your powers a bit more.”

They both walk into the mall and Bob leads them to the hot dog place. “Order whatever you’d like. It’s on me”

[sunflower-0180]

*They quickly order and try to sneakily pick at some of their scabs while he’s not looking. They flinch as someone stepped into them and hiss as their nails dig in a little harder than planned. They hear him clear his throat and grumble under their breath.*

[ignore-the-void]

Bob looks over from his hot dog when he hears them hiss in pain. “You okay?” He asks, his brow creasing in worry

[sunflower-0180]

“Mmhm.” *They quickly hid their wrist, giggling a little as they remembered the first time they had really hung out, after he had to reset their wrist.*

[ignore-the-void]

“Why are you hiding your wrist like a 5 year old who was caught with candy?” Bob asks

[sunflower-0180]

“No reason?” *Their voice gets a little higher pitched at the end of their sentence, and they try to figure out if there’s a store they can beat him to while they wait for the bleeding to slow down.*

[ignore-the-void]

“Hmm, likely story” Bob holds his hand out. “Let me see your wrist” he says, the words similar to the first time he took care of her

[sunflower-0180]

*They glance over his shoulder and their eyes widen in shock. What kind of store was that? Wrist forgotten, they hurried around him and made a beeline towards it, and their nose scratched in confusion and embarrassment. Oh. It was a sex store. Wait, what the hell was that?*

[ignore-the-void]

Bob stands up to go after them. “Anna- ugh” he frowns as he follows them. When he sees the store she’s about to enter he freaks out slightly. “Oh shit- ANNA! Don’t go in there!”

[sunflower-0180]

*They ignore him of course and are rooted to the spot, absolutely dumbfounded. What in the actual fuck? That thing had to be like….that was bigger than their whole arm! And wider too?? What in the actual fuck? And what was that?? They flinched when they felt a hand on their shoulder, and looked up.*

[ignore-the-void]

Bob sighs as he walks in behind and puts a hand on their shoulder to get their attention. “Listen uh… we should probably get outta here”

[sunflower-0180]

“I…..I have so many questions. So many. We can leave, that’s fine, but I have so many questions.” *They felt like they had information overload, and their brain hurt.* “That lady is motioning for us to come over.”

[ignore-the-void]

“Please don’t go, it will make this significantly worse,” bob whines as he sees them walking over to the lady. “Jesus Christ” he mumbles following after them

[sunflower-0180]

“Hi, do you and your boyfriend need anything in particular, or were you just browsing?” *A kind cashier smiled and asked, looking at them and then Bob. Their nose wrinkled in disgust but when they went to speak, they couldn’t and whined.*

**My voice went out, help.**

[ignore-the-void]

Bob wraps a gentle arm around Anna “no thank you,” he says to the cashier. “They’re not in the market for anything like this.” He gently leads them away from the sex shop, putting his hands up to block their peripheral vision so they don’t see anything else.

[sunflower-0180]

** I’m sorry, I thought… it looked like a fun store. That was kinda funny that she assumed we were together. You didn’t deny it.**

*They smirked a little at that.*

[ignore-the-void]

“It’s a fun store depending on who you are,” bob points between the two of them. “Us? Not so fun.” He chuckles. “Yeah people don’t seem to grasp the concept of friendships”

[sunflower-0180]

**There were….. I…..how…..**

*They couldn’t seem to gather their thoughts enough to finish their sentence, and they just stared off into space as they tried to figure out what they wanted to say.*

**Where did you want to go?**

[ignore-the-void]

“Anywhere but the place that sells dildos,” he jokes. “It’s up to you. Dealers choice”

[ignore-the-void]

She holds her hand out and theres clearly something in her fist. "Bob, open your hand I have a surprise." Her fist moves a bit. "Hurry."

@yelena-white-widow

“Oh- uh…” he cups his hands and holds them out. “What is it?”

[yelena-white-widow]

"Close your pretty eyes and you'll find out." Shes clearly trying to hold back a laugh.

[ignore-the-void]

Bob is hesitant to close his eyes until he remembers this is Yelena. His girlfriend. He trusts her. He closes his eyes. “Alright what’s the gift?”

[yelena-white-widow]

"I wouldn't consider it a gift..." She opens her hand and puts a giant ass frog on his palm. "You can look now."

[ignore-the-void]

Bob opens his eyes and sees the frog and blinks in surprise. “Uh.. thanks?” He says slightly confused

[ignore-the-void]

She holds her hand out and theres clearly something in her fist. "Bob, open your hand I have a surprise." Her fist moves a bit. "Hurry."

@yelena-white-widow

“Oh- uh…” he cups his hands and holds them out. “What is it?”

[yelena-white-widow]

"Close your pretty eyes and you'll find out." Shes clearly trying to hold back a laugh.

[ignore-the-void]

Bob is hesitant to close his eyes until he remembers this is Yelena. His girlfriend. He trusts her. He closes his eyes. “Alright what’s the gift?”
