Peter got the feeling he was being watched.

So maybe he’d decided to stop by the mansion for a bit. And maybe he had a few bruises and cuts (that were quickly healing) from where he might or might not have gotten caught up in a protest in the city, but it was nothing serious and he’d just wanted somewhere to kip for a bit. So naturally he’d slipped into the X-Mansion and dropped down onto the sofa. Except now there was daylight forcing its way through his eyelids, and the definite feeling of eyes on him. Cracking one open, he frowned a little.

“Didn’t anyone ever tell you it’s rude to stare, kid?”

“Who did this?”

“Relax. I have it handled.” He pauses. “You can kiss it better, though.”

POINSETTIA: Favorite holiday dish?

Ach, how do I even answer this? I really enjoy the Krustenbraten. It’s like a pork roast that is crispy on the outside. My family always enjoyed it with potato salad. We also eat Gruenkohl, which is a stewed kale with sausages and spices. My mother has a secret recipe that is absolutely the best. And then, of course, there are the sweets, like Stollen, Lebkuchen, and Marzipan. Oh, they are so good. Stollen is a kind of fruitcake, Lebkuchen is German gingerbread (I like it with chocolate and nuts), and Marzipan is an almond meal candy. You can coat anything in it, even potatoes! A couple of my new American favorites, however, are turkey with dressing and sweet potato casserole. It’s like a dessert, but it’s a side dish! Cranberry sauce is good as well, but I like it on toast. I cannot eat it plain like I have seen some people do.

“No, we can’t buy five hundred pugs.”

“Screw the rules, Warren’s got money.”

Left in Tommy's P.O. Box was a well-sized box, labeled to Tommy Eisenhardt, from Alison Blaire in somewhat familiar script. Inside was a smallish teddy bear that was clearly stitched together by hand, outfitted in Hawkeye's purple and black garb-- he even had small felt hearing aids and plush bow and arrow set. There was a small note folded: Dear Tommy, I wasn't sure if you ever got one of these growing up, but everyone needs a bear. He's made just for you, just because. --Ali

For a while Tommy switches between staring at the letter and staring at the little bear in the box. He took it home And set it on his bed before sending a quick text to Ali.

[text: Dazzler omg] Thanks

Later, on his travel blog there’s a picture of the bear being held in front of his Dazzler posters. [Sometimes, it’s nice to take a break from travelling and make a friend near home.]

"Hey, Tommy, who's your favorite hero? I need to know for reasons."

"You mean like aside from the team and Ma?"
