❝ ⚛ ▸ RICHARD RIDER:

“ it’s completely legal … ” his smile falters for a split second, “ ⸻ mostly. mostly completely legal. ” so it’s a bit of a gray area. but breaking into a GOVERNMENT-AGENCY for the greater ( && he might also mention, galactic ) good seems like a good enough reason for a gray area.

Scott knows better than to believe in the LEGALITY of the mission, though he doesn’t mention that much. GRAY AREAS are practically his life these days. ❝Alright.❞ A small shrug. ❝That’s good enough for me. Just tell me what you need me to do and I’ve got you covered.❞

❝ ⚛ ▸ STEVE ROGERS:

STEVE ISN’T SURE he can get used to this. they travelled across the country with their heads down & their eyes straight ahead. it is difficult living while always having to look over his shoulder. even before the serum, he could get around without anyone paying attention to him. he had been able to slip into a crowd unnoticed. now he is about a head taller than most people in the CROWD. ❝ —— we’ll see if that’s true, ❞ steve says with a smile. ❝ it’s good to see you again, ❞ he tells him. with the fight & later the prison break out, steve hasn’t gotten the chance to really get to know scott. he’s hoping to change that.

While the sentiment is returned, Scott struggles for a moment to find words. ( Captain America is glad to see him! ) A deep breath. ❝It’s good to see you too, man!❞ But that doesn’t change the fact that Steve showing up out of nowhere has NEVER meant good things before. ❝—Everything okay? What’s been going on?❞ There isn’t much new on his end. At least, he’s sure, nothing as exciting as the kind of trouble Steve seems to get into. ❝I know we haven’t exactly been TEAMMATES that long but, you know, if you need me for anything, I’ve got your back.❞

❝ ⚛ ▸ WANDA MAXIMOFF:

@ofantics // starter call

THIS MAN WAS CURIOUS TO WANDA; she had been living in Avengers tower for a matter of m o n t h s now. She was part of the superhero world, and was training to be one herself and yet the little witch still found herself being surprised on a daily basis. ❝Ant Man? you turn into an ant?.❞ SHE’S PROBABLY ASSUMING WRONG, there’s probably something much more complicated to the process and yet her first assumption is that he turns himself into an insect. THE LITTLE WITCH MAKES HERSELF BUSY, buttering a slice of toast for breakfast and she remembers her manners enough to turn to Scott and ask ❝Would you like something to eat? a cup of coffee or t e a?.❞

WANDA MAXIMOFF is a modern marvel. Her generation’s very own CAPTAIN AMERICA of sorts. He knows of her and yet he knows nothing at all about her. How she came to be. What made a young girl and her brother decide to put their lives on the back burner for the chance at having POWERS. Scott’s own powers, if you could call them that, had been acquired on accident and while he’s grown to love the suit, there’s a learning curve. Trying to imagine her adjustment is exhausting. ❝Uh — CLOSE. I shrink to the size of an ant.❞ A beat. ❝And I work with them,❞ he adds after a moment, as if communicating with INSECTS isn’t anything out of the ordinary. ❝What? Oh. Uh, coffee?❞

Scott isn’t the kind of man to GIVE UP, even when it’s a beautiful superhero asking. ❝I don’t want to have to FIGHT you, Supergirl. I just need TWO DAYS to do what I need to do. Two days isn’t really that much to ask for.❞

❝ ⚛ ▸ STEVE ROGERS:

@ofantics | SECRET AVENGERS !

❝ —— i guess, you’re used to this kind of thing ? ❞ he says as he motions to his cap & sunglasses. they’ve been sleeping in their car for the last couple of days. sam & steve followed a lead out to california. as FUGITIVES, they don’t have many options. staying in the same place made them feel like sitting ducks but driving across the country opened the door for more people to spot them. steve figured, as long as they kept moving, they would be okay. but while they’re in the area, they made contact with scott —– to show him what they were working on, maybe get his help —– but mostly just to see how he’s doing.

'THIS KIND OF THING.' Running? Hiding? Yes, and yes. Scott is all too familiar with what it’s like to be a criminal. Never would he have thought he’d be joined by CAPTAIN AMERICA and yet here they are. ❝Yeah.❞ Unfortunately. It’s a miracle his daughter doesn’t HATE him for always being gone. For being a BAD GUY. He knows everyone thinks he doesn’t have good in him, but it just shows differently in him then it does others. He can’t let CORRUPT RULES guide him. ❝It’s kind of my thing. I hate to say you get USED to it, but ——❞

Scott isn’t a VIOLENT person. He’ll fight for what he believes in, fight to keep his family, but ACTS OF VIOLENCE aren’t really his thing. SELF-PRESERVATION is something he’s familiar with. It’s natural and when people are powerful that instinct tends to be DEADLY. Scott’s surprise is more rooted in that Ultron is a ROBOT. Programmed by humans and yet KILLING as if it’s moral. He’s sure this isn’t what STARK && BANNER intended when they tried to create something to protect the world. This isn’t PROTECTION. As his gaze returns to ULTRON and his act of desperation, he wonders if the robot feels that. Feels the NEED to survive the same way humans do. His expression is mixed: confusion, wonder, fear. He takes a hesitant step backward.

❝—REALLY? Kinda looked like you enjoyed that from where I’m standing.❞

❝ ⚛ ▸ BUCKY BARNES:

❝When you’re on the run, it’s kind of hard to just stop into restaurants and hope they don’t recognize your face that’s been EVERYWHERE.❞ An eyebrow is raised in Scott’s direction for a moment – just how EXCITED could this guy actually GET over food? Though, he didn’t blame him. When Bucky actually started to EAT ON HIS OWN versus the annoying IV drips that HYDRA had given him, he had gone a bit overboard. He could blame it on his super soldier serum though – what was THIS guys excuses? There’s a small smile on his face though because it’s something that feels NORMAL, and Scott hasn’t regarded him like he’s some kind of danger just yet. Which is NICE – he loves Steve and all, but there’s that pressure to be the guy that he used to be around him. He tries to push it away though and focus on the grumbling in his stomach. ❝Trust me, that feeling FADES AFTER ABOUT FIVE MINUTES. You’ll see how uncool the guy ACTUALLY is and then any notation or wet dreams you’ve had about him will fall away in about two seconds flat.❞

❝Oh, I get it. Being on the run is a BITCH.❞ And a killer on the family dynamic, not that the LANGS ever really had one. Cassie was so young when Scott went to jail and that isn’t something he can TAKE BACK. Even now that he’s out, he barely sees her. Circumstances simply don’t seem to FAVOR him and he hates what he’s done to his own family. But this TEAM he appears to have stumbled onto is just as much his family as Cassie is now. It all runs in a giant circle that connects them. ❝—So you’ve had wet dreams about him, though, right? I find it hard to believe he’s UNCOOL at all.❞ Which is, of course, his way of asking for childhood stories without actually asking. Only because Captain America has always been an INSPIRATION. A man who proved you should always go after what you want. Do the RIGHT THING. The influence Steve had on the country is a LARGE part of why Scott became his own version of ROBIN HOOD in the first place. Because the possibilities are worth the consequences.

Dream: My character wakes up in the middle of the night because of a dream with your character in it. [ go wild! cause ultron can haunt you or not :D deejavu? ]

@untxmable // outgoing transmission // drabbles

The AVENGERS had fallen apart. Tony Stark and Bruce Banner creating a killer robot certainly helped. In the end, Scott is SURE the Ultron incident was the tipping point that led to the ACCORDS. Sokovia was nothing Scott had a hand in personally, and yet he can SEE the creation as if he’d been there. As if he’d FOUGHT in the battle. When it comes down to it, the FEAR he feels is a result of wondering if things would have been DIFFERENT had life gone differently. Had he been the ANT-MAN long enough, he could have helped and yet he spent three years in JAIL doing NOTHING. Rotting away, losing his life.

One moment, he’s ANT-SIZED. In a mask, jumping from robot to robot and then BAM! He finds himself face to face with Ultron himself. He gets too close for COMFORT and then wakes up with a tight chest. Eyes wide, frantically breathing as he pushes himself into a sitting position. There is no SOLUTION to this problem. No easy way to figure out why he’s being haunted by a monster he never had to FIGHT. Naturally, his first thought is Cassie. He wants to hear her voice, know that she’s OKAY. But she’s young and it’s late and Maggie would KILL him if he woke her, not that he hadn’t visited in the middle of the night before.

The suit only makes it EASIER. He hasn’t woken her before, but he can’t RISK it with everything that’s going on. Can’t risk being seen as WEAK in front of a little girl that adores him. Cassie is his weakness and he only wants her to be proud of him. To see him be the BEST version of himself he can be. Slowly, he lays back down and closes his eyes only to see ULTRON once more. Lurking in the back of his mind, ready to MANIPULATE him like he had everyone else. And, really, how was SCOTT LANG supposed to stand up to the man when super powered people had struggled and nearly failed? Maybe he isn’t meant to be in their category after all.

❝I’m not saying it’s a BAD thing! Just making an observation.❞ After all, that was practically ALL they knew about Loki publicly. Aside from the Manhattan thing, but Scott wasn’t overly CONCERNED with the past. He was a criminal, too.
