“i’m gonna do it,” he grinned, fiddling nervously with the ring box, “i just –– i need to find the perfect time.”

[rgocking]

katychens​:

“Thumbs. What would you do without them? Can’t text, can’t hold a fork. Seriously – what did you do?”

“Mostly just...crawled around in the bushes. Ate bugs. Other...porcupine things. I was turned into a porcupine, you were aware of that - right?”

[rgocking]

bcrtonhawk​:

“Careful. I don’t remember if I put my explosive-tip arrows in that bag or not. Or was the acid tipped arrows.. Shit, I dunno.”

“Barton, you’re a mess. You know that, right? Like, even more so than me.”

[rgocking]

katychens​:

“Is kung-fu better than parking cars? I’m not a mixed martial artist so I can’t say, but I’m really damn good at parking cars.”

"I heard about what you did in Ta-Lo, maybe skilled archer is a better description than mixed martial artist.”

[rgocking]

xmoonsilk​:

“A lot changed for me after Pleasant Hill. Mentally, physically.. There’s definitely been some sort of reality shift.”

“What do you mean? Something you think we should be concerned about?”

[rgocking]

destroyrofworlds​:

“They’re not actual earthquakes coming out of my hands. Technically it’s vibrations.”

“And I’m not actually a porcupine. At least, not anymore,” Roger let out a genuine laugh.

[rgocking]

ladylckis​:

“What is this Tik Tok that I keep hearing mortals go on about?”

“Beats me, I’m what they’d call technologically challenged. Except for when it comes to the porcupine suit.”

hardycat​:

Felicia stood and waited for her chips to dispense from the machine, but when they got stuck she let out a groan and hit the glass. “The one time I try to pay for something.” She grumbled to herself.

Roger watched with slight amusement before approaching the girl, arms folded across his chest, “You know, the one down the hall has better options.”

[rgocking]

capdnvrs​:

“At this point, doing anything other than whatever it takes means we’re not doing enough. Not with how things have been going. I’m not someone who can standby and watch that happen.”

“Am I – be honest with me, Carol - am I missing something here?”

[rgocking]

katprydes​:

“You could say that, but it’s a little obvious.” Kate took a swig from her flask. “Don’t you think?”

“I know we’ve been through a lot, but what if there is no right time anymore? Every day could be our last one together.”

[rgocking]

bloodstne​:

“Of course hunting monsters is fun. I love the constant threat of being eaten and/or possessed.” 

“Monsters...like - care to elaborate?”

[rgocking]

jckpct​:

“Just because someone doesn’t have superpowers doesn’t mean they should be kept out of the loop. I’d like to know when people I love are facing imminent danger.”

"God, I’ve never related to anything more.”

[rgocking]

medusaliiths​:

“With the state of affairs at the moment, it’s only a matter of time before things escalate.”

“Sounds a bit like you want things to escalate?”

[rgocking]

piixiies​:

“Of course I was a little scared about dying for the first time, but it was super easy. Can’t remember a day, but hey! I’d take it over being dead.”

“Sounds like a fair trade-off to me. Glad to see you’re doing well, kid.”

[rgocking]

itsmjcnes​:

“I’m doing a thing at Empire, so if anyone wants to give me a statement about how shitty things have been, please feel free to.”

"I don’t think I want SHIELD coming after me for speaking up against them, so –” Roger mimed zipping his lips closed.

[rgocking]

marvelatme​:

“Would I be jinxing it if I said that I have faith that things might get a little bit better?”

“Depends how superstitious you are? Like if you’re not at all, would saying you have faith even do anything? I don’t know, that hurts my brain to think about.”

[rgocking]

bbombshells​:

“C.R.A.D.L.E. said a lot of stuff in the ReEducation Center, and — I don’t know. I agreed to go on the news in support of them because they showed me that we have a lot to apologize for. We need them to keep us in check.”

Roger eyed the girl curiously, “That doesn’t sound like the healthiest way of looking at things?”
