thunderbolts headcanons pt 3: video games edition
(the fic is on its way i promise)
walker brings home a nintendo switch one day and is shocked that no one has played mario kart
at first he's excited that he gets to teach everyone how to play, but he quickly regrets it because almost everyone beats him
almost everyone: bucky is really bad at mario kart. at first everyone gives him a pass thinking its because one of his hands is a prosthetic, but that theory goes out the window when he plays every other game perfectly
he just SUCKS at mario kart
bob is really excited when he sees the switch because he always wanted a Wii when growing up but never got one, but he still holds back and tells everyone else to have a turn because he's nervous about being too overeager
but when he gets his turn he absolutely wrecks them.
alexei takes the longest to learn how to play the game. at the end of the day, he still doesn't understand, but he still finds it fun, especially because everyone keeps trying to help him win - he finds it endearing
yelena never gets first place. it infuriates her so much but she doesn't want anyone to know, but later that night she wakes bob up and drags him to the TV and asks him to practice with her, they end up staying awake until 4am playing lots of different games
whenever someone is playing a horror game, ava will do her best to sneak up and scare the shit out of them. she has more fun doing that then playing the game
they all have their own controllers and sometimes they'll plug in the switch on the mission screen because its much bigger than the TV
they always, ALWAYS get into a fistfight over who will be player one
