Also, I know I left you guys malnourished on the teen!reader x marvel (Though now that I've looked at the tag I saw a bunch of other authors working on it too which is just amaze amaze amaze) but I've gotten some sad news too,
I sadly won't be writing as much as I used to, seeing as I've sorta got a loooot going on in my life atm and haven't really been able to sit down and write lately.
Also, as much as it pains me to say this, I've kind of lost my hyperfixation on marvel (luckily I haven't lost ALL interest in it but it is quite a lot I must say). I don't know if I'm saying this correctly but my ADHD brain has just been jumping from one thing to another and currently it's landed on the project hail mary train, so maybe I'll write a lil about that one day(･ω･)
I'd really appreciate it if yall could just tell me about some stuff you'd like to get from me and I'll update my introduction abt the fandoms I'm currently in!!
My phone got stolen by someone as I left it in my bag when going shopping and forgot it inside the store, I know its stupid.
But since all my accounts and passwords were on there I couldnt find a way to log back in, only found out later an old ipad of mine still had my accounts and got my passwords back on my new phone through it(*ゝω･*)
Sososo sorry for not being able to tell yall anything about it though really it pains me too trust (ノ_＜。)
Alr so I hope you guys will enjoy reading this cause i certainly enjoyeyd writing it!!

✦ Fantastic Four Reacting To You Seeking Comfort At Night Headcanons ✦
* ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ *
✦ Reed Richards
He’s probably awake already, working on some experiment at his desk when you knock.
At first, he doesn’t really catch on that you’re seeking comfort, he just asks what you’re doing up so late.
But when he sees you avoiding hos questions, he softens immediately.
Offers you a blanket without hesitation, then starts rambling about the thing he's working on to distract you.
If you want actual comfort instead of a lecture, you have to cut him off with a quiet “can I just stay here?” and he’ll shut up instantly, letting you curl up on the couch in his lab.
✦ Sue Storm
She’s the most naturally maternal about it. The second you show up at her door looking shaken, she’s pulling you inside.
Wraps you in one of her soft blankets and tucks you in right next to her.
Reminds you that it’s okay to be scared of things, even she was as a kid.
Keeps her tone calm and gentle, brushing your hair back or rubbing your arm while you settle down.
Probably hums quietly or reads to you until you fall asleep, just so the thunder doesn’t feel as loud.
✦ Johnny Storm
Tries to play it cool when you knock on his door, like, “What, too scared to sleep in your own room?”
But he softens quick when he sees you getting a little too quiet.
Shuffles over in bed and pats the empty space beside him without saying much else.
Keeps cracking little jokes, like comparing the thunder to his fire blasts, just to make you smile.
By the end, he’s the one who falls asleep first, sprawled out like a starfish while you’re curled up safely at his side.
✦ Ben Grimm
You barely get to knock before he’s opening the door, worried something’s wrong.
When you mutter about the storm, he just nods and lets you in, no questions asked.
Ben’s got the warmest, safest-feeling presence, like nothing could touch you as long as he’s there.
He’ll sit on the edge of his bed or the floor and let you take the whole space if that helps.
Probably tells you old Brooklyn stories in his gruff voice until your eyelids droop, the sounds of the city at night fading into the background.
Hey guys! So, since most of ya thought I should write Fantastic 4 x Teen reader I thought I'd start with some kinda domestic yet angsty hcs, hope you all enjoy!!

✦Fantastic Four Noticing You Distancing Yourself Headcanons✦
* ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ *
✦ Reed Richards
At first, he doesn’t notice, he’s buried in work and assumes you just want space.
But when Sue points it out, he gets concerned and tries to “fix” it by giving you routines, tools, or explanations about dissociation.
Realizes quickly that you don’t need a scientist, you need someone to see you.
Starts being more intentional about checking in, like gently asking if you’re “with him” when you seem distant, without making it feel like pressure.
Quietly rearranges his schedule to spend more time in your orbit, even if it’s just working while you sit in silence nearby.
✦ Sue Storm
She notices immediately. Even the tiniest changes in your behavior hit her radar.
Tries to reach out in gentle ways, bringing food, inviting you to join her, offering comfort without pushing.
If you isolate, she slips notes under your door or checks in with a soft knock, reminding you you’re not alone.
When you disassociate, she keeps her voice calm, grounding you with steady words like, “Hey, sweetheart, you’re safe. You’re right here with me.”
If you break down and admit why you’re shutting people out, she just pulls you into her arms and tells you that you don’t have to carry it alone.
✦ Johnny Storm
At first, he brushes it off, thinking you just need “me-time.”
But when it keeps happening, he gets worried and tries his usual method, jokes, teasing, distractions.
When those don’t work, it rattles him. He’s not used to being shut out by people he cares about.
He ends up hanging around your space anyway, like sitting outside your room talking about random nonsense until you let him in.
If you dissociate, he’s one of the first to notice because you stop reacting to his antics. That’s when he gets serious, crouching down and quietly saying, “Hey... come back to me, kid.”
✦ Ben Grimm
He doesn’t need words to know something’s wrong. He sees it in your body language right away.
Doesn’t push you to talk, just makes his presence known, knocking on your door with a snack, sitting with you in silence, letting you know he’s there.
If you isolate, he calls you out gently: “You don’t gotta hide from us, kiddo. We’ve seen worse, trust me.”
When you dissociate, he anchors you with touch, resting a heavy hand on your shoulder and keeping his voice steady.
He’d never admit it out loud, but he worries the most. He knows what it’s like to shut down and feel stuck in your own head, and he’s determined not to let you feel that way alone.

Super open to suggestions, still trying to catch up with yalls requests so sorry if i can't write everything<3
How do you think the thunderbolt would react to a teen!reader secretly vaping 😭
HELP THIS IS SO FUNNY TO ME IDK WHY
Thunderbolts x Gn!Teen!Reader
✦ Thunderbolts Finding Out You Vape Headcanons ✦
* ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ *
✦ John Walker
Finds out fast because he notices the smell.
Gets really stern.
"I'm not mad, just disappointed."
Starts giving you health lectures and stories about soldiers wrecking their lungs with nicotine.
Tries to frame it as “I want you at your best, and this’ll only slow you down.”
Confiscates it immediately and keeps an eye out so you don’t get another one.
✦ Bob Reynolds
His heart sinks when he sees it, he’s gentle about it though.
Asks softly if you’re stressed and that’s why you’re doing it.
Makes it all about care, like “You don’t need that, you’ve already got people who’ll help you breathe easier.”
Hates the idea of you hurting yourself, even accidentally.
Encourages you toward healthier coping habits (drawing, games, music).
Would probably get you fidget toys to keep your hands busy instead.
✦ Alexei Shostakov
When he first sees it, he squints like it’s an alien gadget.
When you explain it’s vaping, he gets offended in a funny way.
“In my day, if you want to ruin lungs, you smoke cigarette! Like real man!”
Thinks it’s pointless, “not even proper smoking, no fire, no smell of death.”
Doesn’t really grasp the health risks, but decides it’s weak and tries to roast you out of doing it.
Will tease you endlessly about it until you give it up just to shut him up.
✦ Yelena Belova
Immediately calls you out: no sugarcoating.
“Seriously? That’s disgusting.”
She doesn’t yell, but her blunt disappointment stings worse.
She's the kind of gal to take it from you yet secretly use it herself afterwards, not to get addicted but to kinda understand why you'd use it (she deffo understands.)
Makes you promise to quit then and there.
Keeps an eye on your bag/pockets for a while, just in case.
✦ Ava Starr
Gets quiet when she realizes. Like John, she’s not mad, just worried.
Asks why, really tries to understand instead of judging.
Makes you sit down and talk it out, even if you don’t want to.
Points out how fragile her own health was for years, and she doesn’t want that for you.
Once you open up, she suggests better stress outlets (and actually joins you in some of them).
Offers to hold you accountable in a supportive way, not a strict way.
✦ Bucky Barnes
Dead serious about it. No jokes, no “it’s fine.”
Says it reminds him of people he lost to bad habits, and he doesn’t want that for you.
Takes the vape without asking and tosses it.
Keeps watchful, protective eyes on you afterward, borderline overbearing.
But when you pout, he softens: “I just... I need you to be okay, kid.”
Would help channel your stress into physical stuff, taining, walks, anything to keep you busy.

AA THIS WAS SO FUNNY TO WRITEEE
I mean personally I dont vape (do sometimes light a smoke when with friends for the vibe) so I wrote this out of my own perspective of someone I was close to finding out I smoke.
Forgot to mention this in my other post, but I've seen the new fantastic four movie and am highkey in love again.
So like, would yall wanna read my stuff if I started writing Fantastic four x teen!reader too? Like id still frequently be uploading thunderbolts x teen!reader ofc but so some fantastic four in between
Okay so I had a few drafts ready for yall, they were just domestic stuff I had written and ready to post, so I put them in the waitlist since I cant always be on my phone/laptop to check tumblr.
But now suddenly none are posted nor are thehy in my drafts of the waitlist???
And my stupid self had deleted the drafts off my laptop since I thought they'd be safe in these drafts on the app yk.
Like if anyone knows qhat happened or how I can get them back please tell me cause I really really liked these💔
Was kn a grocery run with my dad and couldn't help but imagine this with the thunderbolts
Thunderbolts x Gn!Teen!Reader
✦ Thunderbolts Grocery Run Headcanons✦
* ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ *
✦ John Walker
Has a shopping list and military-level determination to stick to it.
If you point at something unhealthy, he’s like, “We’ll think about it.” ...then quietly puts it in the cart anyway.
If you convince him enough he'll let you sit in the cart while he pushes it.
✦ Bob Reynolds
Always lets you pick the fruit, teaches you how to “knock” on watermelons to find the good ones.
Very strict on junkfood though, like a few things are alright but hes like an almond mom in this case.
Way too nice to say no to anything you want.
The cart is full of snacks within 10 minutes.
Explains what every weird vegetable is, even the ones he has no idea about.
Walks at your pace, even if that means stopping to look at the lobster tank for twenty minutes.
✦ Alexei Shostakov
Buys you a little flower from the floral section just because “it looked like it belonged to you.”
He accidentally ran into a stand of bottles stacked on top of each other knocking them all over the floor. (You're mever setting another foot in that store again.)
Absolute menace in the store. You two disappear from the group instantly.
Holds jars up to his biceps like, “Look, Little Comrade, I am stronger than pickles.”
Lets you push the cart even though you almost bump into everyone, chaos ensues.
Buys you both matching novelty sunglasses from the checkout area.
Shouts across aisles to ask if you want “the BIG ice cream tub or the HUGE one.”
Asks wether you like normal or flavored vodka forgetting you're not even allowed to drink alcohol yet. (He don’t gaf.)
✦ Yelena Belova
This is not a grocery run, it’s a mission.
Lets you ride on the end of the cart while she pushes way too fast.
Wears sunglasses indoors. Hands you a tiny pair too.
If you ask for candy, she just says, “Don’t tell the others,” and gets it immediately.
Sneaks little treats into the cart without anyone noticing.
✦ Ava Starr
Before you know it you got nothing off your list and instead leave the store with a cart full of chips, soda and other variants of candy.
The organized one. Keeps everyone on track.
Quietly slips your favorite snack into the cart without making a big deal about it.
Gives you the job of “list holder” so you feel important.
Carts deffo going full qith coffe beans, bread and a dozen brand of cereals nobody actually needs.
Makes sure you get a drink from the vending machine before leaving.
✦ Bucky Barnes
“In and out. Ten minutes.”
...Forty minutes later you’re both still in the bread aisle because you convinced him to smell every single loaf.
He'll probably take forever to choose vegan and fruits with tricks he learned from his mom.
If you ask for something, he doesn’t say yes or no, he just silently puts it in the cart like it’s a secret.
Grumbles at self-checkout but lets you scan every single item.
hii i thought this would be a cute request since im a senior in high school this year, maybe how the platonic!thunderbolts react to teen!reader graduating? I imagine they would be the loudest ones and bob would probably clap for everyone 😭😭
This is so cute I'm gonna cry.
Thunderbolts x Gn!Teen!Reader
✦ Thunderbolts Going To Your Graduation Headcanons ✦
* ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ *
✦ John Walker
Wears a full suit like he’s your damn father. Red tie. Sunglasses. American flag pin.
Stands the second your name is called and starts clapping like it’s the Super Bowl.
Yells “THAT’S MY KID!!” loud enough to get a few stares.
Tears up and hides it by fake-coughing into his sleeve.
Buys you one of those giant teddy bears in a cap and gown that says "Congrats Grad!"
Keeps your grad photo in his wallet next to his military ID.
“Look at you. All grown up. I mean, you’re still my responsibility but still. Grown up.”
✦ Bob Reynolds
Shows up early, finds the perfect seat, and claps for every single graduate.
Gets misty-eyed the whole time, especially when your name is called.
Smiles so soft and proud it physically hurts.
Brings you a handmade card and a tiny bouquet of sunflowers.
“You worked so hard... I hope you’re proud of yourself, too.”
If you’re nervous or crying, he’s the first to hug you and just let you sit in it.
Tells everyone later: “They did it. They really did it.”
✦ Alexei Shostakov
Shows up in something absurd like a “#1 Graduate’s Hero” T-shirt he got custom made.
Brings one of those temu flags with your face on it (he's deffo one of those adults gmwho get random shit off of temu that have no real use.)
Yells every two minutes.
“LOOK AT THEM! MY WARRIOR! MY LITTLE INTELLECTUAL!”
Nearly gets kicked out for being too loud. Refuses to sit down.
Afterward: “I am so proud I could punch sky. You want me to punch sky?”
Offers to arm wrestle your principal in your honor.
Buys you five graduation cupcakes. Eats three.
✦ Yelena Belova
Acts very chill about it beforehand, “It is just school, yes? Not life or death.”
But when it’s your name? She screams. The loudest one.
Brings you a black envelope with a sleek dagger keychain and a funny handmade card.
“Congratulations. You survived hell. Let us celebrate.”
Takes you for overpriced coffee and threatens anyone who bumps into you in the crowd.
Doesn’t admit she’s proud, but posts a photo of your grad cap with “mine 💀🎓” as the caption.
✦ Ava Starr
Doesn’t do crowds well but makes it work for you.
Sits quietly with sunglasses and claps only when you cross the stage.
You spot her smile, soft, small, but genuine.
Brings you a journal with your initials engraved. “For the next chapter.”
Quietly slips a note into your pocket that says,
“Don’t downplay this. You earned it.”
Doesn’t say much afterward, but she does nudge your shoulder and say,
“I’m glad you made it through.”
✦ Bucky Barnes
Shows up late and grumbles about the crowd but sits front row for you.
Stands when your name is called and claps with a half-smile, trying not to be obvious.
Leans over and mutters, “Told you you’d make it,” like it’s not a big deal.
Gives you a gift-wrapped compass: “So you don’t lose your way.”
Won’t say he’s proud. Will threaten to knock out anyone who doesn’t celebrate you enough.
Deffo cries when he's alone later cause he's not ready to let you go too

✦ Thunderbolts With a Spider-Variant Reader Headcanons ✦
* ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ *
✦ John Walker
Very much the “dad with rules” about your powers, lectures you on safety every time you climb somewhere dangerous.
Tries to teach you “proper landing form” even though your spider reflexes make it unnecessary.
Proud but stubborn, acts like he’s not impressed when you do something cool, but goes on to tell Ava about it later in private.
Constantly warns you about overusing your powers in public in case people figure out your identity.
Will absolutely stand under you when you’re high up “just in case” even if he couldn’t actually catch you in time.
✦ Bob Reynolds
In awe of how freely you move, says it’s “like watching a bird fly, but braver.”
Checks in with you constantly about whether you’re feeling okay after missions, knowing your body takes strain from all the swinging.
Always finds ways to help you rest after training, like bringing blankets and snacks.
Doesn’t mind if you make usage of your powers indoors, actually thinks it’s funny when you hang upside down to talk to him.
Supports you unconditionally, if you say you can handle something, he believes you
✦ Alexei Shostakov
Convinced you’re destined to be “world’s greatest hero” because you have “warrior’s instincts.”
Makes you do physical challenges to “prove strength” which are usually ridiculous, like climbing up an entire building in under a minute.
Gives you over-the-top nicknames like “Spider lord” or “Web Fighter.”
Has tried to swing from your webs before... it did not go well.
Brags about you to complete strangers, as if you’re his kid who just won gold in the Olympics.
✦ Yelena Belova
Treats your powers as a source of endless entertainment, pushes you to use them for harmless pranks.
Sometimes dares you to race her across rooftops; she hates losing, which happens often.
Brings you tiny accessories for your suit because “you have to look stylish when you save the day.”
Always up for sneaking out with you at night for web-slinging practice.
Has tried learning your wall-crawling stance but usually ends up sliding down like a sad cat.
✦ Ava Starr
Sees you as a fascinating mix of skill and instinct, studies how you move to understand your strengths.
Occasionally runs stealth drills with you, challenging you to catch her before she phases away.
Advises you on conserving your energy for long fights, since she knows powers can drain you fast.
Will silently back you up in any dangerous situation without hesitation.
Keeps a mental note of how far and fast you can swing, just in case she ever needs to plan a quick escape with you.
✦ Bucky Barnes
Doesn’t make a big deal about your abilities, treats it as just another skill in the field.
Still, he quietly keeps watch during missions to make sure you’re not in over your head.
Reminds you to always have more than one escape route, “even if you think you can out-swing danger.”
Has sparred with you to help you get used to fighting in close quarters without relying only on webs.
Sometimes catches himself comparing your determination to another young hero he has faint memories of, it bothers him that he simply can't remember his face..

✦ Thunderbolts Teaching You How To Drive Headcanons ✦
* ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ *
✦ John Walker
100% the “by the book” instructor. He’s got his hand on the dash like a real DMV guy and keeps saying things like “ten and two!” and “check your mirrors before moving!”
Talks you through every single step like you’ve never even seen a car before.
Secretly panics when you take a corner too sharp but tries to hide it behind a tight smile.
Forces you to practice parallel parking at least five times.
John: “Alright, nice and easy, turn into the space, no, slowly-”
You: “You’re gripping the seat like you’re in a crash scene.”
John: “I’m relaxed. This is my relaxed face.”
✦ Bob Reynolds
The calmest teacher out of the whole team, he’s just quietly encouraging the whole time.
Doesn’t freak out when you mess up, just gently corrects you.
Will sometimes get distracted pointing out cool scenery or animals on the side of the road.
Praises you even for small wins, like a smooth stop.
Bob: “That was perfect, smooth braking, no jerks at all.”
You: “You make it sound like I just won an award.”
Bob: “Want a sticker?”
✦ Alexei Shostakov
Thinks he’s the best driving teacher alive but is actually horrible at explaining anything.
Gasps dramatically when you accelerate even slightly too fast.
Makes you drive past random places so he can tell unrelated stories.
Keeps telling you to “just feel the car” instead of giving real instructions.
Alexei: “Okay, okay, little more gas, little, just one more..”
You: “Just say how fast i gotta go.”
Alexei: “....just a little bit faster....”
✦ Yelena Belova
Surprisingly patient but also brutally honest about your mistakes.
Threatens to “roll out” of the car if you start swerving.
Plays music and insists you drive to the beat so you “learn rhythm control.”
Will absolutely yell at bad drivers around you on your behalf.
Yelena: “Brake! Brake! Brake! ...Good. You didn’t kill anyone.”
You: “High praise coming from you.”
Yelena: “Don’t push it.”
✦ Ava Starr
Very technical about it, tells you exactly how much to turn the wheel and when to brake.
If you mess up, she makes you do the same maneuver again until it’s perfect.
Gives short, sharp commands instead of long explanations.
Definitely takes you to an empty parking lot to start.
Ava: “Too wide. Try again.”
You: “This is the sixth time.”
Ava: “And we’ll do it a seventh if you don’t get it right.”
✦ Bucky Barnes
I feel like he'd be the best to ask. He's quiet, observant, and doesn’t give much feedback until he notices something really important.
His metal arm sometimes tenses on the door handle when you brake hard.
Teaches you defensive driving, constantly pointing out potential hazards.
Tries to act unimpressed but actually feels proud when you do well.
Bucky: “Watch that guy up ahead, he’s gonna cut you off.”
You: “How do you know?”
Bucky: “...Because I’ve been driving since before his grandparents were born.”
Hii! I’ve become so obsessed with your writing recently and love the thunderbolts x teen!reader dynamic sm you write it so well aaaaa

YESS I LOVE THIS OMLLLL.
Thunderbolts x Gn!Teen!Reader
✦ Thunderbolts Going Shopping With You Headcanons ✦
* ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ *
✦ John Walker
Pretends he hates shopping but gets way too into it.
He’s the “dad pacing outside the changing rooms” type until you actually ask his opinion, then suddenly he’s telling you to “turn so I can see it from the back” like some intense stylist.
Tries to talk you into “practical” clothes, but also somehow convinces you to buy a completely unnecessary leather jacket because “it’s badass.”
Pays for stuff without asking and shrugs it off like it’s nothing.
✦ Bob Reynolds
Wanders off to the home goods section and reappears 15 minutes later holding a shark plush or some weird mug.
Gives very soft, sincere compliments about anything you try on, he’s the one who says “you look really happy in that one” instead of commenting on how it fits.
Carries all the bags without question.
If you seem overwhelmed, he subtly takes you somewhere quieter until you’re ready to dive back in.
✦ Alexei Shostakov
Acts like he knows fashion better than anyone (“in Russia, this very stylish”) but picks out the loudest, most mismatched outfits.
Will physically shove something into your hands and force you to try it on “for science.”
Complains about the prices constantly but also sneaks in things for you at checkout.
Tries to haggle with a cashier. It does not work.
✦ Yelena Belova
Has zero patience for indecisiveness, if you’re between two things, she just says “get both” and walks off.
She’s brutally honest about what works and what doesn’t, but also hypes you up when something looks amazing.
Finds accessories she swears “complete the look” and piles them on you.
Always tries on at least one ridiculous hat.
✦ Ava Starr
She loves shopping, yall would have to take an entire day off just so you have all the time to go by each store and come back with at least 7 full bags EACH.
Makes you try at least one “statement piece” that’s totally out of your comfort zone.
She’s quiet but clearly enjoys watching you be excited over stuff.
Will actually laugh if you find something ugly and roast it.
You guys deffo once went to a clothing store just to pick out hideous outfits for each other to try on.
✦ Bucky Barnes
Hates crowded stores but will follow you around without complaint.
Surprisingly good at spotting small details, “that stitching’s better on the other one” or “these shoes’ll last longer.”
Lets you drag him into trying something on “just for fun” but refuses to admit he likes it.
Buys you something you mentioned once, just because.
Hi Hi Hi!!! best writer on earth, im back! can i request something with the thunderbolts when you absent-mindedly hold onto them when you;re feeling frightened or scared like a hold that grounds you? thank you!
HI HI HI ANON!!!
this is such a soft idea I’m kicking my feet already.

✦ Thunderbolts Reacting To You Clinging Onto Them When You're Scared Headcanons ✦
* ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ ** ࣪ ˖༺ ♡ ༻˖ ࣪ *
✦ John Walker
The first time you grab his arm during a loud noise or tense moment, he freezes up for a second like “whoa, are you okay?”
After that, he’s hyper-aware of it. Always walking close enough for you to grab his sleeve if needed.
Lowers his voice instantly and shifts to protective mode.
“Hey, hey, it’s alright. I’m right here, nothing’s gonna happen to you.”
Stands firm like a wall, lets you hold onto his jacket, sleeve, or even just the hem of his shirt if it calms you.
Doesn’t ask questions unless you wanna talk. Just keeps you close and steady.
✦ Bob Reynolds
You could grip his wrist mid-panic and he’d gently wrap both hands around yours like it’s the most natural thing in the world.
“You’re safe. You’re not alone. Just hold on for as long as you need.”
His voice is the softest it’s ever been when you’re anxious, it’s practically a lullaby.
Starts to recognize your signs before you even reach for him. Will quietly extend his hand without saying a word.
If he’s sitting, he’ll pull you down next to him, shoulder to shoulder, and just let the silence carry the comfort.
✦ Yelena Belova
You once grabbed her arm during a thunderclap and she immediately went “who hurt you?”
But when she realized you were scared, she softened in a heartbeat.
Loops her arm around your back protectively and whispers something sarcastic to distract you.
“It is just thunder. I promise the sky is not angry at you.”
Holds onto you too, casually but firm. Won’t let go until you do first.
Punches anyone who calls you clingy. You’re not clingy, you’re hers. Deal with it.
✦ Bucky Barnes
Goes absolutely still the moment you cling to his sleeve, but not in a bad way.
You can feel his muscles lock like “oh god they’re scared-what do I do what do I do, oh no.”
But then he adjusts his stance so you can grip more comfortably and just gently leans into you.
Doesn’t say much, but murmurs little grounding things.
“Okay. We’re breathing. You got me? I’m not goin’ anywhere.”
Holds your hand if you let him. Gloved or not, it’s warm.
✦ Alexei Shostakov
Surprised the first time. Literally goes “OH. You need hold? Yes! Yes! Come here!”
Wraps you up in a bear hug immediately. He has no sense of personal space in a crisis, but somehow, it helps.
“Little warrior is safe now. I will crush any danger.”
You could hang off his arm like a koala and he’d keep walking like nothing’s wrong.
Loudly reassures you without shame, even in public.
If anyone looks too long? “You have problem?! They are SCARED. MOVE.”
✦ Ava Starr
You grip her coat in the middle of a tense situation and she doesn’t even flinch.
She’s used to needing grounding herself, so she instantly adjusts her pace, her posture, her breathing, everything to keep you steady.
Quietly turns her body so you’re between her and a wall, keeping you protected without making a show of it.
“You’re doing fine. Just keep holding on. I’ve got you.”
If someone’s causing the fear, her death glare alone could paralyze a man.

✦ John Walker
“You just tell me what you need. I’ll learn it.”
Absolutely commits to learning basic sign language as soon as he finds out. No hesitation. He’s not the best at it yet but he practices every night.
He talks slower, faces you when speaking, and always checks if you’re reading his lips comfortably.
Refuses to let anyone speak over you or ignore you. If someone starts talking fast or mumbles, he’ll pause the convo like “Say it again. Clearly.”
Will write on his phone or a notepad if you prefer that over lipreading on rough days.
Gets super protective in crowds. Always makes sure you’re not left out of conversations.
✦ Bob Reynolds
Instantly starts doing the most thoughtful things without making a show of it.
Will gently tap your shoulder to get your attention and always checks in with a soft “Is this okay? Too loud? Need me to slow down?”
If he’s reading aloud or explaining something, he’ll write key parts down or gesture so you don’t miss a thing.
You once mentioned how overwhelming group convos get he started summarizing them for you in little notes.
Never raises his voice when repeating something. Stays calm, patient, and careful with every word.
Will learn and use any communication method you’re comfy with. His kindness makes it so easy to ask for accommodations.
✦ Yelena Belova
At first, she’s not sure what to do, so she goes “Tell me how I don’t be an asshole about this.”
After that? She’s ON IT. Learns signs like she’s studying for war.
If you wear hearing aids, she threatens people who make comments. “You jealous or just stupid?”
Talks with dramatic facial expressions so it’s easier to read her lips, and also because she’s Yelena.
Does little hand waves or taps to get your attention and makes sure you always know what’s going on, especially in chaotic situations.
Acts like she’s your translator in group convos. “He said-blah blah, boring. I say we leave and get ice cream.”
✦ Bucky Barnes
At first he feels awkward, afraid of messing up. But once you explain how to help, he adapts fast.
Speaks slowly and clearly, keeps eye contact, always checks to see if you caught what he said.
Subtly keeps you looped in by repeating others’ words or nudging you when someone says your name.
You once asked him why he’s so patient about it, and he just shrugged like “I know what it’s like to not feel heard.”
You’re one of the few people he trusts enough to let into his quiet space, and in return, he makes sure you’re never made to feel like silence means invisibility.
✦ Alexei Shostakov
First reaction: “WHAT?! WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CANNOT HEAR?!”
Second reaction (after you explain it better): “Ah. Okay. I fix. You stand over here. I talk like this now. Better?”
Speaks loudly anyway so volume isn’t a problem, but will absolutely work on clarity.
Gestures a lot when he talks, accidentally helpful for lipreading and context.
Doesn’t care if you miss something, he’ll stop mid-sentence and go “Wait. You hear that? No? Okay, I start again.”
You teach him a few signs and he goes overboard using them everywhere, like dramatic ASL storytelling of how he beat a guy with a chair.
✦ Ava Starr
She instantly gets it. No questions asked, no pity, just “Alright. Let me know what works best for you.”
Always faces you when speaking and speaks clearly and calmly, even during tense situations.
You never have to ask her to repeat herself, she does it automatically if you seem unsure.
Does little things that matter, like tugging your sleeve before a loud noise or nudging you when someone starts talking.
In group settings, she always makes sure you’re included, if you miss a joke, she’ll retell it for you quietly with a smirk like “You needed the better version anyway.”
