VELOCITAS

too  SELFISH  to  be  a  hero ,  too  SOFT  to  be  a  villian!

”I don’t know how it happened, but I didn’t MEAN to break it!”

[qwikest]

his  gaze  half  -  lidded   ,  the  speedster  watches  the  other  .  slightly  amused  .    “    ---------  and  i’m  supposed   to  believe  that ,   how ?  hm  ?     ”

he wasn’t wrong — clint felt like he was staring a ghost of his past in the face so confused and at a loss of words. his concentration had fallen else where, completely missing out on whatever pietro had been filling him in on. “ oh they are workin’ just fine, might be goin’ crazy myself though. “

lips  twitched  up  into  the  faintest  of  smiles  when  clint  noticed  him      ,  childishly  satisfied  with  the  look  of  shock  present  in  his  expression .    i’ve  come  back  to  haunt  you  old  man  ,  the  speedster  muses  to  himself  .    “    you’re  going  to  have  to  get  used  to  it .     ”     pietro   half  mocks  ,  half  warns  .  he  wonders  if  clint  had  any  idea  how  strange  the  times  they  were  living  in  now  .    who  was  he  kidding   ---   pietro  wouldn’t  be  surprised  if  clint  was  clueless .      “     so   ---------   what  hole  did  you  crawl  out  of  ?   i  haven’t  seen  you  around  ,  and  it  wasn’t  for  a  lack  of  trying .    ”

“ please don’t start with me, okay? ” Scott !!!

nothing  would  ever  feel  natural  about  being  in  allegiance  with  the  x-men  and  avengers      or ,  anyone  who  might  consider  themselves  their  friends .   afterall   ---   enemies  could  never  betray  you .    there  was  one  brightside  to  this  at  least  ,    in  that  he didn’t  have  to  surround  himself  with  them  at  all  times ,  and  could  live  his  life  as  he  pleased    (  knock on wood, pietro; don’t jinx it   )    ——    but  there  was  still  a  subtle  sense  of  anxiety  that  came  with  helping  them ,  the  knowledge  and  experience  that  they  could  do  as  much  evil  as  good  ever  present  in  the  back  of  his  mind .  pietro ,  though ,   being  the  astonishing  and  wonderful  little  soldier  he  was ,  sucked  it  up .   beggers  couldn’t  be  choosers ,  right ?

when  he  meets  scott  summers   during  one  of  those  unfortunate  instances  where  he  finds  himself  at  headquarters     (    he’s  not  positive  if  that’s  the  word  for  it    ——    he  just  knows  he’s   there ,  and  it’s  way  too  expensive  for  his  tastes   )  ,  he  doesn’t  know  what  to  think ,  other  than  something  along  the  lines  of  not  this  asshole  again .   maybe  one  of  these  days  he’ll  actually  say  it  out  loud ,  but  for  now ,  pietro  will  settle  for  straightened  posture  and  apathy ,  careful  to  lace  his  tone  with  disinterest  just  to  put  the  cherry  on  top .

clint was well known to be a petty shit at times, optionally ignoring people and switching off his hearing aids mid argument between the other avengers pretending to be fully invested in conversations. It was a lot and also, clint tended not to care when his “parents” fought. after all he was just the tired arrow guy who was often the source of empty pizza boxes in the avengers headquarters. “ you know what — i’m gonna stop you right there. i have no clue what you just said… or what you’ve been saying for the last five minutes i zoned out. “

[qwikest]

he sucks in a breath and bites his cheek      he  hadn’t  expected  to  see  clint  here ,  and  ever  since  he  had  return  he  had  always  searching  ...   discreetly .   for  so  long  ,  clint  had  left  pietro  to  the  mercy  of  the  other  avengers  ,  especially  tony.    “    maybe  you  should  fix  your  hearing  aids  then  ,  old  man .    ”     pietro  quips  into  return ,  a  smirk  playing  at  the  corner  of  his  mouth  .      “      or  are  you  going  to  ignore  be  because  you  think  you’re  seeing  ghosts ,  hm ?    ”

[qwikest]

“ wow, you look like shit today. ”

his  gaze  drift  towards her  in  a  sidelong  glance     she   was  his  sister   ---------    of  that  ,  pietro  could  not  deny .   his  nose  scrunches  as  he  breathes  but  her  mouth  at  her  ,  mocking .       “   ---  and  what  pit  did  you  crawl  out  of  today  ,  dear  sister ?   ”    pietro  was  never  one  to  allow  someone  to  best  him  in  being  INSUFFERABLE  ,  how  else  would  he  maintain his  postion  as  the  most  HATED  avenger .    “     i  have  been  rebuilding  a  country   ---  what  have  you  been  doing  ?   ”

❝ I can feel your eyes burning over the horizon of my shoulders ❞ ( jean! )

he  has  good  cause  to  not  trust  her     as   far  as  pietro  is  convinced .   unlike  his  sister ,  he  keeps  everyone    (  x - men  or  avenger  )    well  past  arms  length  away .   NOT  TO  MENTION     ---------     she  was  married  to  scott  summers  .  another  mark  against  pietro’s  favor .       “   what  of  it  ?    ”    silver  brow  crease  harshly  as  a  scowl .  strong  arms  fold  across  a  broad  chest ,  the  speedsters  body  language  already  shutting  down  the  conversation  .    “     i  am  not  the  intruder  here .   ”       /  @grcypheonix

HADN’T  HE  ALREADY  PAID  HIS  PENANCE       ---------     why   did  the  universe  find  it  necessary  to  plague  him  in  the  form  of  a   loud  mouthed  cajun .   day  in  and  day  out  ,  pietro  listens  to  his  incessant  chatter  and  strange  references  to  films  he  cares  nothing  for .  he  had  long  given  up  running  from  the  red  eyed  mutant  because  there  was  always  a  way  the  other  had  managed  to find  him .    “   as  if  the  DEVIL  would  want  you ?   ”   pietro  asks  rhetorically , gesturing  vaguely  and  briefly  before  folding  his  arms  quickly .  not  that  he  would  ever  tell  remy      (   he  would  have  rather  taken  another  bullet  than  admit  he  though  somewhat  HIGHLY  of  him  )   that  he  would  never  scratch  what  it  took  to  earn  a  place  in  hell .      “    now  are  you  going  to  continue  to  stand  there  and  ask  useless  questions  or  are  you  going  to  help  me  do  actual  work ?     ”    /  @gvmbits

Billy had been trying to live on his own, able to manage doing what little magic he could in secret, but he fears eyes being on him. How do you act normal? He doesn’t want to pretend to be something he isn’t. The witch had been minding his own business, throwing an empty cup of coffee out into a garbage bin. His body turns, happens to see someone familiar across the street. How could he miss him? HIS UNCLE — his mother’s brother. Billy makes the mistake of waving when their gaze met. He loves his family, including Pietro. He doesn’t know if he knew of him or even saw him — so he turns away embarrassed only to accidentally bump someone. He apologizes and goes to gather his things from his table outside. “You’re so stupid, Billy.” He says to himself as he finishes shoving the books into the backpack. 

             WAS  THIS  THE  MAN  HE  WAS  TO  BE  ,  ABANDONING  HIS  RESPONSIBILITIES  ?   they  make  eye  contact  and  pietro  knows  the  boys  recognizes  him .  how  ?  that  was  not  important  to  him  ,  he  had  stopped  worry  about  rationality  after  being  brought  back  from  death .  HE  WAS  A  CONFUSED  BOY  TOO  ,  ONCE .   if  he  leaves  now  ,  pietro  is  certain  the  boy  will  never  forgive  him .  he  certainly  never  did  to  those  he  felt  had  left  him  unjustly.    “    you  know  me  ,  yes  ?  ”   in  an  instant  he’s  infront  of  the  boy ,  a  rush  of  air  passing  them  as  he  holds  out  the last  book  dropped.   he’s  so  GROWN  .  another  surprise  his  nephew  offers  him .  he  had  always  believed  he  would  have  been  there  to  see  his  sister’s  children  grow  up  at  the  very  least .  that  just  pietro  ,  he  assumes  ,  ALWAYS  MISSING  OUT .         “  and  i  know  you  ,  nephew   —   so  tell  me  why  you  are  calling  yourself  stupid .   ”

          THEY  ARE  BONDED  BY  BLOOD ,   SON  OF  HIS  SISTER  !   he’s  been  watching  the  boy  from  afar ,  his  visits  only  lasting  a  split  moment  as  he  dashes  by.  how  strange  this  world  has  become  in  his  absence .   brother  , hero  ,  martyr ,  and  now  uncle .  HOW  QUICKLY  THE  WORLD  MOVES .    “    uncle  pietro  ?   ”   it’s  CURIOSITY  that  possesses   him  ,  to  hear  the  sound  of  it  aloud .   his  nose   crinkles and  the  speedster  shakes  his  head ,  taking  his  gaze  away  from  his  nephew  across  the  street  from  him ,  the  sound  feeling  strange .  perhaps  because  he  feels  unworthy  of  it .       “  no   —   these  are  truly  strange  times.   ”   /  @ofwiccvn

✕ — isn’t that pietro maximoff wandering the streets of new york? civilians know them as quicksilver and see them as a villian-turned-hero. as far as i know, the 27 year old stands with the avengers and are rumoured to be pretty arrogant & quick tempered.( manish dayal / cismale / he/him )

tw: death mention

SO,  howdy  pardners , this here is  gonna be my intro post of this here pietro django maximoff

I’ll be mixing it up with taking both mcu and comic interpretations of pietro and mashing it all up into one huge mess

pietro’s origins follow age of ultron with both him and wanda being experimented on by hydra, fighting the avengers on the behalf of ultron, and then joining the avengers to fight ultron

the catch is, when he save clint and the boy he both died and didn’t die, kinda like a schrödinger's cat situation and he was stuck in limbo, due to the time stream being altered and it just recently spit him out due to the gang heading back in forth through time. 

now’s his number one priority is being with his twin sister wanda, other than that he’s trying to figure out where’s his place in all this mess? the avengers? the x-men? somewhere else? who knows

console: my muse comforts yours

           HE  IS  LAZARUS ,  HE  WHO  RETURNS  FROM  DEATH  !   or  had  he  simply  been  dreaming  this  entire  time  ?   drifting  in  between  a  limbo  of  the  two ?  he  can  not  find  the  words  to  begin  to  describe  what  had  happened  to  him  beyond  that  faithful  day  in  the  sokovian  skies .  it  feels   so  distant ;  the  fade  memory  of  his  aid  in  the  rise  and  fall  of  THE  AGE  OF  ULTRON ,  pushing  clint  out  of  the  way ,  and  collapsing  into  the  mud  with  the  scent  of  iron  overpowering  senses.  a  heart broken  scream  in  the  distance.   

             he  remembers  his  promise.   his  sister.  he  was  meant  too  return  to  her .  and  then  he  feels  the  GUILT .    they  had  lost  so  much  as  it  was  ,  suffered  well  past  their  fair  share ,  and  pietro  had  sworn  to  himself  that  she never would have watched him die. her  last  blood ,  last  family  member  she  had  left.  THIS  IS  ALL  HIS  FAULT.  he  could  only  imagine  what  she  had  felt ;   a  soul  crushing  despair , an  overwhelming  loneliness, the death clinging to her own bones .  she  never  would  have  gone  through  that  if  it  weren’t for  pietro.  and  he  thinks  about  that.  her  scream.  it  rings  in  his  skull  at  all  times,  occasionally  perfectly  aligning  with  the  one  he  had  memorized  from  their  time  in  hydra,  the  one  he  had  heard  one  too  many  times  in  the  room  over  ( that sometimes resembled his name too much for his liking ).  she  never  would  have  gone  through  that. 

             IT’S  STANDING  STILL  WHERE  HE  FEELS  THE  MOST  UNCOMFORTABLE ,  at  wanda’s  doorstep  !   he’s  scared  of  what  she  might  do  to  him.  slap him ,  scream  at  him,   curse  him  for   leaving  her  so  alone  for  so  long.  he’s  scared  because  he  knows  he  deserves  it.  but  he  knocks  nontheless.  when  she  opens  the  door,  pietro  knows  that  wanda  isn’t  the  same  as  the  last  time  he’s  seen  her.  she  looks  stronger ,  more  confident ,  but  tired. he  doesn’t   wait  and  falls  into  his  twin  sister ,   arms  wrapping  around  her  smaller  frame  weakly.  it  a  BITTERSWEET  reunion  for  pietro  but  how  do  you  tell  your  sister,  the  one  thing  left  in  this  world  that  you  have  managed to  hold  onto  for  this  long ,  that  she  is  the  source  of  your  guilt ?   that  it  is  her  pain  you  blame  yourself  for ,  that  every  wrong  in  her  life  seems  to  be  because  of  you ?

        “   —  wanda .   ” he  sighed into  her  hair ,  and  where  the  weight  of  death  was  lifted  (replaced with the promise of life) ,  the  burden  of  guilt  came  forth .  squeezing  her  tightly ,  pietro  mumbled ,  as  if  anyone  else  might  be  listening  to  them ,   “  —   i’m sorry, wanda.  i’m back for good, i promise .   ”   /  @wandcmaximoff
