mcu about to see these two serve sexy couple in ways it hasn't seen before

[wickanderhalovar]

What did she like about John? Besides his obvious flaws, which she found intriguing, she liked…she liked his competence. He was capable, at least in a large portion of his life. He did not seem so capable in facing his own emotions, which she witnessed as she stalked him for Valentina, but neither was she really. There was also an easy way about their banter. He rose to the challenge instead of getting pissed off like the few other men she’d tried talking to over the years. John had an ego, yeah, but he also was practically begging for companionship and approval from those around him. Ava didn’t mind that—at least it was something consistent. And there was vulnerability there too—during their conversations in the desert, in the box truck, even after, before the Void wrecked havoc over the city. The soft broken parts behind his brilliantly blue eyes shined brightly, and they (sometimes) seemed to burn a bit more brightly when they were sparring with words.

a beat, a beat, a beating heart

“Wow, I didn’t know you had a body under that suit.” John’s face was already healed–faded and gone. Didn’t even leave a visible scar. Bastard. “Haha, very funny,” Ava said, rolling her eyes at him where he leaned over the island, elbows grinding into the sharp edge of the countertop. “You know, for some reason I was thinking you could never take off the suit,” John said, eyeing her cozy sweats. Ava arched a sharp eyebrow. “You were thinking about me out of my suit?” John almost blushed. It was adorable. His ears turned red.

“What did you see?” Alexei asked, voice desperate. John hesitated, the sinking feeling of bearing witness to his own shortcomings drying his mouth and making him twitchy. “Walker, what did you see?” Ava pushed up close to him, forcing him to step back, back hitting the wall. Despite her intensity, her eyes did not show chaos and anger, but desperation to do good. She wanted to save Yelena, someone who didn’t believe in anybody but Bob, who thought so lowly of herself even though it truly was her that kept them all together in the first place. John swallowed hard. “It was…I don’t know, a memory. A…my memory, something different. Like it was a memory but I was there, me, like right now. I went somewhere, I can’t explain it.” “Magic…” Alexei muttered from the corner. “Or…Valentina messing with things she doesn’t understand,” Bucky sighed. He pinched the bridge of his nose. “What did you see?” Ava asked again, quieter this time, not giving him any space to get away. He wet his lips and shook his head. “Nothing good.”

Ava could sense [Bob's] unease and the shift in him like it was palpable. She didn’t like it. It felt like they were balancing on a knifepoint. John was a big fan of shoot-first-questions-later, and his hand was poised over his gun, ready for the first instance of possibility. Those two found themselves continuously drawn to each other. Like a magnetic pull between twin planets, Ava was always moving toward him, or him toward her, no matter where in the room they are, they always seem to find a way to be near. Ava tried not to think about it too much, how it happened subconsciously, but how she noticed. She noticed how he went from one side of the room all the way to the other, to stand next to her.  Maybe it was because John was a protector and it was the most strategic place, or maybe…maybe… She hid her hitched breath beneath her thick suit and let her confusion hide anything else. “Have you dyed your hair?” Ava asked.
