anon asked: Yo I had an epiphany that there is not many (maybe any) Hispanic/Latin@ superheroes and this idea just came up. Being the only Hispanic Avenger headcanon 😂😂 If you want you could make it x Peter cause we love our babyyy💕
note: thank you for this request anon! you should check out miss america, they are a queer latinx avenger!
i’m not latinx, but i am black & i grew up around afro-carib-latinx culture (and also took ap spanish LOL), so i felt comfortable writing this, and i asked a friend for help <3
the littlest bit of x peter parker, short headcanons!
if you requested something it’s coming!!! i have lots of requests and i’m working on girls on film (part 4 here) and finishing school + these imagines. thank u for your patience.
here goes!!!
• you thought it'd be harder being the only latinx avenger, but you were working with such great people that the difference was hardly noticeable
• until it was (sometimes) (and in the best way possible)
• for example, you'd make traditional food for all of them. anything, you name it: platanos, carne asada, pupusas... they were in love
• "it's like the bodega!" peter, your boyfriend, would exclaim any time he saw you cooking
• tony would rub his hands together and ask "what's for dinner?"
• eventually your cooking made everyone want to start monthly potlucks, which were kind of a disaster (you were one of the only avengers who knew the skill of combat and cooking)
• but food wasn't just it
• it was just the natural glow that came with being a poc, especially one that was on the avengers team
• you were drawn to peter naturally — you lived in queens, surrounding by dominican & puerto rican culture
• you both attended school together and you had always had a crush on each other, not aware of the others powers
• imagine the shock when you joined the avengers and you both saw each other
• peter loves you and does his best to understand the culture
• he's already in spanish class and he constantly tries to impress you with his spanish speaking skills
• you'll sometimes talk to peter in spanish like you do with your latinx friends, but with peter it's more like broken white boy spanglish
• it's cute - until you're cursing out and intimidating villains in spanish
• you'll be like "quien te crees que eres?" (while holding the villain at knifepoint)
• peter in the background, trying to look tough: "sí."
• and let's get into your superpowers — besides the fact that you somehow always have the kind of caramelos that peter likes — you also have the powers of heat manipulation, flight, and, unique to new york, the ability to teleport between boroughs
• you're new on the job, but you're strong, and the other avengers look up to you
• they're always learning something new from you, whether it's combat or culture
