So, I know you asked for solo yelena requests, how about headcanons on how yelena would handle having a crush on reader with reader being a member of the thunderbolts

This was so fun to write thank you anon! :)

Warnings: None.

So Yelena isn't great with feelings or being vulnerable.

Poor girl has BIG emotions but struggles to express them properly.

For the first few months you thought she hated you because she would hardly talk to you unless it pertained to a mission but it's not because she disliked you, she just didn't trust you yet.

But with time and patience she slowly warmed up to you and started to really enjoy your company and the occasional flirty banter you shared.

She goes out of her way to memorize how you like your coffee or surprise you with random little gifts that made her think of you.

She isn't sure at first why she does it, or why she finds herself spending all her free time with you, or why her heart races when you smile at her but she wants to understand.

Which would often lead to her scowling at you unintentionally anytime the two of you hang out because she's trying to figure it out.

What finally makes her put two and two together is when she realizes that the churning nausea she feels in the pit of her stomach when someone flirts with you is in fact jealousy.

She spends weeks thinking about whether or not she should tell you and every time she tries she chickens out, what if you don't feel the same? What if she makes you uncomfortable? What if this ruins your friendship?

You know her all too well though and have known for months how she feels and that she'll never actually tell you so it's up to you to make the first move and ask her out on a proper date.

Thinking about switching my blog to be more Yelena centered, begging y’all to send me some requests for her while I think about it 💜

[ninetailedruby]

Tysm to my lovely mutual @bobbiereynolds for the tag, please go check them out they’re an angel 💜

Last Song: Cherry Waves by the Deftones

Last Book: Mocking Jay. I’m finally rereading this series and forgot how much I enjoyed it! I’m excited and very afraid for when I get to Sunrise on the Reaping haha

Last Movie: Antman. I recently started my mcu rewatch and this is where I’m at right now, I am so afraid for phase three somebody is gonna have to sedate me when I get to Endgame. Still trying to convince myself Nat isn’t gone

Favorite color: Purple! 💜

Spicy, Sweet or Savory: Depends on my mood!

Last Show: The Blacklist. Completely forgot that James Spader voiced Ultron so when I got to that part of my Marvel rewatch I was like omg Reddington is here.

Current Obsession: um I have a lot so I’ll just list a few; Thunderbolts, Marvel in general, and Dr Pepper.

Last Search: How long should I cook chicken wings in a crock pot? The answer is roughly four hours apparently.

Looking Forward to: Going to see Fantastic Four, hanging out with my best friend this weekend, writing more requests for you guys! 💜

I’ll tag a few people but no pressure! :)

@yelenaslyubov

[ninetailedruby]

HAII HUN can i request thunderbolts being your secrete lover and then everyone else finding out?

I see this all the time with Bucky but never join or Yelena ☹️

This is so cute I love this thank you for the request! And so sorry it took so long I have been crazy busy this month 💜 @flwurle

Warnings: Mildly suggestive for John, minor angst for Yelena if you squint, other than that all fluff, gn reader.

Yelena

The two of you had fallen asleep with her half on your lap and her head resting on your chest while watching a movie last night. It’s now early in the morning and the sound of Alexei’s deafening voice stirs the two of you awake. When you open your eyes you see everyone stood there, staring at the two of you.

She shoves her body away from you just a little too hard and a muscle in her jaw feathers as she pushes herself off the couch. She makes her way towards her room and you follow after her, trying to piece together why she reacted like that.

“You didn’t want our friends to know about us, why?”

She runs a hand through her hair, a nervous habit you’ve picked up on, and you want to reach out for her but you stop yourself in fear of making it worse. She looks at you with an expression you can’t quite read. She doesn’t look angry, she looks sad.

“Because that makes it real; and when things become real they get taken away from me.”

You don’t stop yourself from reaching for her this time. Your hands cup her face and you press your forehead to hers, telling her that it’s okay and that she can tell them whenever she’s ready. She chuckles dryly but there’s a slight smile on her lips.

“I think that ship has sailed already.”

Bob

The two of you had kind of assumed everyone had figured out that you were together but for a team full of really intelligent people, they were all incredibly dense when it came to relationships apparently. At this point you had made an unspoken deal to see how to long it takes before someone says something.

“Hey baby, do you want anything while I’m up?”

Your hand rubs his shoulder as you stand behind the couch, eyes still looking at the movie playing on screen. You barely catch the way everyone else looks between each other. He leans his head back to look at you.

“No I’m good.”

A thought pops into your head and you debate with yourself on if it’s a good idea or not and end up deciding why not. You lean forward to kiss his forehead before walking off to the kitchen to get yourself a drink.

“You two seem happy.”

You hear Yelena’s voice as you’re making your way back. Once you’re sat back down you make yourself comfortable right up against Bob, seeing Ava crack a smile and John raise his brows. Bob reaches for your hand and turns to look at you with a smile of his own.

“We are.”

Ava

The two of you were out clubbing with the rest of the team having the time of your lives, that is until some douche decided to ruin that. Ava had walked away to grab the rest of you more drinks and the moment your eyes meet hers from across the room she’s on her way to you. You had tried just brushing the person off at first and when that didn’t work you told them you had a girlfriend which earns you a few questioning looks from the others but again does nothing to dissuade the person.

“Where is she then?”

You try to think of words to say but before anything comes out you feel a hand sliding into yours, squeezing gently. Her familiar voice cuts through the blaring music and she levels the stranger with a stare.

“You can go now.”

After they’ve walked off you kiss her cheek in thanks and you’re met with a chorus of “ohhhh” and “called it” and then watch as John hands Yelena a twenty and grumbles about it. Ava groans but you catch the hint of a smile on her lips.

“You all suck.”

Bucky

You were all out at a fancy restaurant grabbing dinner after some dumb last minute publicity thing Val roped you all into doing and you were midway through your meal when you remember that you left your wallet back at home. You feel the sense of dread creeping over you, you honestly didn’t think you’d need it but with your luck nothing is impossible. You tap Bucky on the shoulder to let him know and he looks up at you from his meal.

“Buck I don’t have my wallet”

Your voice comes out nervous, not wanting to burden him with the issue but also not knowing what else to do. He just shrugs like it’s not big deal, a little smile graces his lips.

“What kind of man do you take me for? One that doesn’t pay for his date?”

He says it without thinking, so used to it just being the two of you at dinners. This seems to draw the tables attention to the two of you and you share a look before Val’s voice cuts in.

“Well aren’t you two cute.”

He grimaces and you feel like curling up into a ball and imploding, this wasn’t exactly how the two of you planned to tell everyone but oh well now.

John

It’s early in the morning when you feel a pair of familiar arms wrap loosely around your waist and the feeling of his scruffy beard scratching against your cheek. John reaches a hand out to grab a slice of bacon off the plate you’re currently preparing and you can’t help but scoff, turning around to face him in the process and watching as he chews it methodically.

“So early and already you’re being a menace”

He chuckles and plants a kiss to your forehead and then suddenly you’re hoisted up onto the counter with his body stood between your legs.

“I’m sure I could find a way to make it up to you”

You’re about to pull him in for a proper kiss when you hear a disgusted sound come from across the room and look over to see Ava. She strides into the kitchen and leans against the counter, pointing a finger between the two of you.

“Since when have you two?”

Before either of you can answer Yelena walks in and mirrors the same disgusted face Ava had on when she came in. She covers her eyes and turns right back around.

“No sex in the kitchen, please.”

[ninetailedruby]

hiii i was wondering if you had any headcanons about the gang being jealous over their partner? 🤭 sfw or nsfw idk 🤭🤭 big fan of ur writing btw :D!!!

Oh do I ever. And thank you! 💜

Warnings: slight NSFW, jealous/possessive behavior.

Yelena

- She isn't jealous, but she is possessive.

- She gets a kick out of other people staring at you when you're out together because she knows they can see the pretty bruises she left for everyone to see.

Her mouth ghosts over your neck to leave light kisses and when she feels your pulse start to thump faster against her lips you feel her chuckle. Her hands tighten their hold on your hips, her nails leaving little crescent shaped marks on the skin underneath your shirt. Her teeth graze the sensitive skin, nipping hard enough to leave little red marks that are sure to turn purple in a few hours. When you mumble something about how you're going to be late she just shrugs before trailing higher until you can feel her breath right against your ear.

"I'm just adding some finishing touches before we leave."

Bob

- He gets jealous pretty easy but he's not one to make a scene.

- He lets things build up because he doesn't want to talk about it so it always ends up coming out unexpected.

You had just gotten home and barely had time to set down your keys before his hands were on you, pulling you against him and kissing you. The back of his knees hit the couch and he pulls you on top of him, his hands traveling up your back to keep your chest flush against his. His face buries in your neck and his jaw tenses; you smell like so many other people it makes his head feel fuzzy. His lips kiss up your neck till they meet you jaw and he mumbles something.

"Tell me I'm the only one you want"

Ava

- When it happens she can feel it in her whole body; heart palpitations, sweaty palms, churning stomach.

- This poor girl gets jealous bad, so bad she sees no issue with pulling you away from whoever you're talking to when she thinks you need a little reminder who you belong to.

You were blissfully unaware of the daggers your girlfriend has been staring at the congressman you had been speaking to. The two of you were having a completely innocent conversation really but she didn't like the way he was smiling at you or the hand he so casually allowed himself to hold your arm with. The next thing you know there's a hand on your hip and you recognize the owner immediately. When you turn to greet your lover the look in her eyes sends a chill down your spine before she pulls you along.

"With me, now."

Bucky

- Out of everyone he's the least jealous.

- That being said he does have his moments, mostly over random little things like someone else going out of their way to open a door for you.

The two of you are walking around the city in the evening, just enjoying the cool night air and bustling sounds as you make your way to your dinner reservation. Bucky doesn't think anything of it when the two of you make it to the restaurant and a group of people comes out the door laughing and talking loudly. He does notice however when one of them does a double take at you and starts to make their way back to the door to get it for you, not for you and Bucky, just you. Bucky's brows furrow and he holds his hand up to grab the handle before them.

"I've got it, thanks."

John

- He likes to act like he doesn't get jealous, but he does. All the time.

- And you can always tell because he gets whiny and more snarky. He also cannot sit still to save his life, he'll pace or shift around on his feet, roll his shoulders over and over or crack his neck.

It was almost a little funny to see him so worked up over something. You watch him out of the corner of your eye to see him struggling to keep the conversation going with the person across from him. His eyes keep looking back to you and his feet keep shifting uncomfortably. You politely excuse yourself after a few more minutes and make your way over to him and allow your hand to grab his waist, fingers swirling lazily. You were going to have so much fun later with this information. You give him a knowing smile when he turns to look at you.

"Everything okay babe?"

[ninetailedruby]

Hi hi! I had a request for headcannons?

The thunderbolts reacting to a veteran reader like John but a different branch(maybe Air Force or Navy) and she gets a PSTD attack from her time as EOD of NFO (bomb tech or what goose was in Top Gun)

Hi hun I am so sorry this took so long I hope you enjoy! :)

Warnings: Google translate Russian, kinda romantic in Yelena's part with use of a nickname but otherwise can be read as platonic, depictions of PTSD and panic attacks.

Translation: "Moya lyubov" = "My love"

Yelena

The second she saw a flash of lightning she knew what was about to happen but there was nothing she could do before a loud crack of thunder shakes the entire tower. She's on her feet and on her way to your room immediately. When she gets there she doesn't bother knocking before entering and when she sees you slumped up against the wall with your hands covering your ears her heart breaks.

"Oh moya lyubov"

She walks over to kneel in front of you, her own hands reaching out to wipe away your tears and cradle your face. She spends the rest of the night with you, speaking softly and reminding you that everything is okay, telling you that you're safe now and that it's just the thunder.

Bob

In hindsight using party poppers for your birthday was probably a bad idea but he thought it would be fun, turns out he was very wrong. When the confetti sprung out and sprinkled onto the floor he expected to see a smile on your face so when he looked up to see your face blank, he panicked. When he asks what's wrong and you try to say nothing he doesn't let it slide, he knows you better than that.

"Is it the mess? I'll clean it up don't worry"

When you tell him no and explain that it's the sound that bothered you it takes him a second before it clicks for him. He apologies profusely after the fact and promises he didn't mean to upset you and that he'll be more careful in the future.

Ava

She felt absolutely horrible about scaring you so badly. She wasn't trying to scare you, well, she was but not to the point of you now having a panic attack. You were getting a late night snack in the kitchen and she thought it would be funny to phase and sneak up behind you but in hindsight she now knows that was a bad idea.

"What can I do?"

She isn't good at being soft or warm but she's trying her best; asking you if you need to talk about it or be left alone. She'll offer to distract or give you a hug. She isn't crazy about the latter but if that's what it takes to make you feel better she's sure going to try. When you ask for a hug she's stiff at first and the hard leather of her suit digs into your body a little but it's worth it.

Bucky

He's no stranger to triggers so when the fourth of July rolls around he already knew it would probably be a good idea to find a way for you to avoid having to hear the fireworks all night long. He lets you know that morning during breakfast that he made plans for the two of you to go somewhere you won't have to see or hear the fireworks. Up until this point he had kept it a surprise and was nervous to see your reaction but upon seeing the smile on your face he knows he made the right call.

"Get packed."

The two of you spend the morning and early afternoon driving until you get to a little cabin in the middle of nowhere. When you step out of the car there isn't the usual sounds of the city you're used to. It's silent sans for the occasional coo of birds and you couldn't be more grateful.

John

He was already prepared for when a situation like this inevitably came up since the two of you first bonded over sharing stories of being Veterans and how it affected each of you. The two of you were out doing what should've been a simple recon mission when a car muffler malfunctioned and set off what sounded like a gunshots. Your heart seizes in your chest and your ears ache, straining to listen to every sound around you. Your head feels like it's going to explode.

"Breathe. In and out, with me"

He pulls you towards him, holding your head against his chest and covering your other ear with his hand. It along with the steady beat of his heart help to drown out the sounds of the car. His chest rises and falls in even breaths and you can't help but match his breathing after a few long moments. In that moment you know that no matter what he has your back.

[ninetailedruby]

hi i have a request :D

maybe Thunderbolts reactions for catching artist!reader doodling them because they have a crush? 🤭

Enjoy anon! :)

Warnings: None, all fluff.

Yelena

The two of you were sat on the couch hanging out but doing your own thing. You stare down at the page in front of you, erasing and redrawing the same line over and over again trying to get it perfect. You gaze over at her. Your eyes linger on the slope of her nose, the curve of her jaw and then to her lips; lips which look so soft and oh so kissable. You let yourself imagine it, imagine what her lips might feel like against your own. You see her lip quirk up into a smirk but she doesn't look up from her phone.

"You know, a picture lasts longer."

She teases you knowingly. She knows you think you're subtle but she's too perceptive not to notice the way you're always looking at her, especially when you're drawing. But she doesn't mind, she thinks it's cute that you draw her as a means of dealing with your little crush and she is more than content to be your model.

Bob

Everyone else had already turned in for the night but you found yourself feeling restless as you sat on the couch, thoughts full of the sweet, blue eyed man whom you've admired since the moment you met. You don't even realize that you had started mindlessly drawing him until your page becomes filled with little doodles based on random conversations you two have had or funny little things he's done. Bob had walked in from the kitchen, stood behind you for the last few minutes silently watching when suddenly you hear his voice.

"Those are really good."

You whip around to face him, snapping your book shut out of instinct. Your cheeks feel hot, maybe he won't notice? When you give him an awkward smile and a thank you he smiles back and you'd be lying if you said it wasn't the cutest smile you've ever seen.

Ava

She's quite nosy by nature so when she walks into your room and sees your sketchbook laying open on your desk she can't help herself. She flips through the pages, admiring your skill but stops when she's about half way through because she notices the sketch seems to be of her. She flips a few more pages and then there's another one of her, and then another, and another. The last half of your sketchbook is comprised almost entirely of various drawings and doodles of her. She looks up when she hears you walk in, a cocky smile on her lips.

"Just the person I was looking for."

She makes a show of shutting the book, making sure you notice. She walks past you and gives you a kiss on the cheek, saying something about how you're going to be late for dinner if you don't hurry it up.

Bucky

His lips turned upwards into a grin when he saw your mission report on his desk. He had grown accustomed to the little doodles you always left on sticky notes attached to them either of a cute cat you saw earlier that day or of an interaction between your fellow teammates. When he sees the drawing you left this time he chuckles. It's a doodle of him in a little suit and bow-tie that you had probably done this morning when he was briefing all of you. What really catches his notice though is the note written beside it.

"You looked cute in your suit this morning"

He reads it aloud to himself and peels the sticky note off of the stack of papers, putting it in a drawer in his desk that is scattered with at least twenty other notes from you.

John

The sun is just barely rising in the sky when you look out the window. It's early, too damn early for you, but you somehow got roped into going jogging with John this morning. You scrawl lazily on the piece of paper in front of you, scribbling some little doodles of him to try to keep yourself awake. After a few minutes pass your eyes start to feel heavy and for a moment you debate skipping out on your plans so that you can catch a few hours of extra sleep but before you can text him you hear his footsteps coming down the steps and into the kitchen.

"You ready to go?"

He looks over to you and raises his brow. When he sees the sleepy look in your eyes he can't help but smile a little, you look cute all sleepy like that. He reaches out to pat your head, ruffling your hair. He looks down at the paper in front of you and his smile widens into a full on grin.

"Is that me?"

The Thunderbolts* reacting to reader being pregnant?? Could be platonic or romantic! 🤍

@amoebadue I love this thank you for the request! Went kinda hard for Yelena's part because that's my girl 💜

Warnings: Established relationships, pregnant reader, very minor angst in Yelena’s part.

Yelena

When Yelena got home she was so exhausted she couldn't think straight. Her head is pounding and all she can think about is getting into bed and holding you in her arms. When she makes her way to your room and doesn't immediately see you she huffs and plops down onto the bed, jostling something onto the floor. She lifts her head to peer over and reaches down to pick up the object and looks at it in confusion, it's a white box with a red ribbon tied in a bow around it. When you walk in, a smile on your face, she tilts her head.

"Open it."

She pulls the ribbon apart and lifts the lid, looking inside and when she sees the stick with two red lines down the center her heart nearly stops. You almost panic because her gaze is so intense, fixated on the test. What if she changed her mind? What if she doesn't want this anymore? What if... Your thoughts are interrupted when her raspy voice calls to you.

"Is this real?”

Her voice is pensive, unsure and shaky. When you nod you see the tears form in her eyes, the way her hand reaches for her own stomach and rests right above the scar. She's on her feet and in front of you in an instant, her forehead pressed to yours. One of her hands reaches for your abdomen. Never in a million years did she think that she would get to have this, to have a family of her own. In that moment she decides that no matter what, she'd go down swinging for the both of you.

Bob

You fiddle with the gift bag on the table, picking it up and setting it back down. You and Bob have the tower to yourselves tonight and this needs to be perfect. You're about to move it again but stop when you hear the elevator ding. The doors open a few seconds later and when he smiles at you your heart flutters, reminding you that no matter how you tell him he's still going to love you anyway. He stops at the other end of the table.

"What's all this?"

You push the bag towards him and he reaches inside, pulling out a shirt with the words "World's Best Dad". He reads it aloud to himself and you wait anxiously for him to react, to say something. It takes him a moment but when he looks at you there's tears in his eyes and his hands are clutching onto the shirt, like he's afraid this is all a dream and he's going to wake up any minute. His voice cracks.

"I'm gonna be a dad?"

Ava

When she knocked on your door and didn't hear an answer she let herself in. She didn't see you so she assumed you were still out on a mission and she knew you wouldn't mind her going into your bathroom to borrow some toothpaste. She turns on the faucet and mindlessly looks around at some of your stuff while she brushes her teeth. There's a few personal touches you've added along with what looks to be a nearly dead plant on the edge of the sink. She rolls her eyes and walks over to grab the plant but is stopped in her tracks by what she sees in your trashcan. There's not one, not two, but three pregnancy tests that all read positive. She's about to go find you when the door swings open and in you walk, a fourth box in hand.

"You must really have trust issues if the first three weren't convincing enough"

Her brow is raised and there's the usual sarcastic edge to her voice you've grown to love but you don't miss the hint of a smile on her lips. She steps closer and grabs your hand, bringing to her lips and kissing the back of it softly.

Bucky

You don't know yet how you're going to tell Bucky that you're pregnant, what if he doesn't want kids? He's said that he does, that he wants a family with you but what if he doesn't actually? What if those were just words said in the heat of the moment, meant only if you two lived in an ideal world? That morning you find him stood in the kitchen, reading some report and drinking his coffee, and you just stare at him for a long time. He clears his throat.

"Morning baby-"

"I'm pregnant"

You blurt out without thinking and for a moment you regret it because he doesn't say anything. He just looks straight ahead at you but then he smiles, a big toothy grin and he strides over and sweeps you into his arms. He spins you around before setting you softly back onto your feet all the while the smile never leaves his lips.

John

You adjust your chair, squeaking loudly. You still haven't decided how you're going to tell John but you already know no matter how you tell him he's going to be happy. The two of you have been trying for months so when you missed your period a few weeks ago you knew. You'd been trying to keep a low profile just in case, not wanting to get his hopes up until you knew for sure and this morning when you went to the doctor you got your confirmation. You were going to tell him tonight but how to bring it up...

"What can I get you two to drink?"

Your waiter interrupts your thoughts and John is about to order your usual when you shake your head and speak up, telling him you'll just do a water. He nods and walks off. John looks at you funny. You can see the gears clicking in his head and before he even says anything you know he knows.

"You're sure?"

When you nod you can see his eyes light up. He doesn't care about the eyes staring at your two when he rises from his chair and gently grabs your face, pulling you in for a tender kiss that reminds you why you fell in love with him, that this is the man you want to spend your life with and raise a family with.

[ninetailedruby]

Hi guys! I’m going to see Thunderbolts for the third time later so please send in some requests for me to come back to 💜

[ninetailedruby]

So glad you love my content dear! 💜 I have watched and really enjoyed Agatha all Along so I would be more than ecstatic to write this request @domoron !

Hello♥️

I have an idea for a thunderbolts preference/imagine/drabble (whichever you prefer) but first i wanted to ask if you've seen Agatha All Along?

Because the reader would be Agathas daughter and a witch, so the preference/imagine/drabble would be what her relationship with the team is like

Hi my love! I'm so very sorry, I haven't watched it yet! I know a few blogs who are writing Thunderbolts content that I'll tag below! I'm not sure they've seen Agatha All Along, but it's worth a try 😊 @moonlit-imagines , @the-autistic-vulcan , and @ninetailedruby all write for TB and I personally love their content 💕 Please reply if I'm missing anyone and I will 100% add your blog! Xoxoxo🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

[ninetailedruby]

Could you do a Thunderbolts* headcanons about like comforting Reader after they find them crying in their room after they screw up on a mission (romantic)?

I sure can! I ended up writing this as more of a little blurb for everyone and less headcanons I hope that is okay. Hope you enjoy :)

Warnings: None, all fluff.

Yelena

Yelena was already on her way to your room for movie night when she was stopped by the sound of sniffling. She had her ear pressed against your door as she knocked softly. She can hear you shuffle on the other side and mumble something before the door swings open to reveal you, eyes puffy and red. Her brows knit together.

“Oh milaya…”

Her accent is thick as she regards you. Once the door is shut she reaches out to take your hand and lead you with her towards your bed. She sits down and pats the spot beside her, waiting for you.

“Do you want to tell me about it?”

When you shake your head she nods and wraps a blanket protectively around you, pulling you flush against her side. As she pulls you close the familiar scent of gunpowder and pine fills your lungs, easing some of your earlier anxiety. She reaches for the remote and puts on one of your favorite movies, as it plays in the background she occasionally places soft kisses to your temple or whispers in your ear words that remind you how amazing she thinks you are and how lucky she is to have such a capable partner.

Bob

Bob hadn’t been having the best day himself and had been looking forward to seeing you all day so when you walk through the doors and immediately go to your room, door slamming a bit louder than usual, he’s surprised to say the least. His stomach churns with anxiety, you usually give him a hug or a kiss right when you get home and you always tell him about your day. He gives it a good half hour or so before allowing himself to follow after you.

“Can I come in?”

When he has your permission he walks in, standing awkwardly in the doorway for a moment before asking what happened. When you shake your head and say nothing he gets that face that tells you he knows you’re lying.

“You can’t keep things bottled up baby, you have to talk about them or it’ll build up”

When you finally do talk he listens, holding your hand and rubbing circles on the back of it. He asks you questions and tries to help you figure out why you’re feeling so torn up about it this time.

Ava

Ava phased into your room without even thinking about it, ready to tell you about how John ate the last of her leftovers and that she needs your help getting him back, but when she sees you curled up in bed and sniffling she stops dead in her tracks.

She doesn’t say anything at first, just walks slowly over to you and puts her hand on your back to let you know she’s there. She’s never been the best at comforting people or being soft with them but for you she tries, she loves you more than anything and wants you to know that. Her hand gently massages your stiff muscles.

“It’s okay, I’m here.”

She doesn’t want to push you or say something wrong so she just stays with you until your crying subsides so she can ask you what happened.

Bucky

Bucky already knew you were upset before he found you, he saw the way you were acting on the way back to the tower and knew something was off. He didn’t follow you straight to your room, he gave you some time to cool off before coming to check on you. When he finds you still in your suit, covered in dirt and dried blood he sighs. He pulls you towards the bathroom and starts helping you out of your suit and starting the shower.

“Let’s get you cleaned up while you tell me what happened”

When you start rambling and telling him about how you screwed up he doesn’t interrupt, he waits patiently for you to finish before telling you that it’ll be okay, that everyone here has made mistakes and what’s important is that we learn from them.

When you’re both done rinsing the soap off he helps you out of the shower and wraps a warm towel around you. He leans down to kiss the top of your head and then rests his chin there and wraps his arms around you.

John

He was worried when you didn’t come out of your room for dinner, when all of you got back earlier you had said something about needing and shower and to go lie down so he didn’t think anything of it but that was a few hours ago and his gut tells him something is wrong.

There’s a curt knock at your door and before you have time to get up he lets himself in, a plate of leftovers in hand. When he sees the tears falling down your face he sets it down on your desk and reaches out, hands cupping your face tenderly. For a man who’s usually so gruff he finds himself unable to be anything but soft with you.

“What happened sweetheart?”

His arms encircle you protectively and the sound of his heart thumping helps calm your breathing. You can feel his body heat radiating through his shirt and smell his body wash, he smells like eucalyptus and bergamot.

thunderbolts hc when you're pulling all nighters for exams and is struggling to be a perfectionist

Warnings: Not proofread… my bad :)

Yelena

- Reminds you that it’s okay to not be perfect, that nobody is perfect and you’ll burn yourself out trying to be.

“Hey now, nobody’s perfect. Especially not any of us”

Her raspy laugh makes you chuckle too, easing some of the dread that’s been seeping into every minute of every day lately. Deep down you know she’s right.

- Likes to come by your room with two cups of coffee when she knows you’ve been up late the night before and claims she accidentally made too much and doesn’t know what else to do with it.

The clock on your desk reads four in the morning when you hear a soft knock at your door. When Yelena steps inside she sets down the cup of fragrant, steaming liquid with a soft clink. Mumbling in a groggy voice.

“Here. I brewed too much”

Despite her reluctance to admit it, you know she does it on purpose because every time it’s made just the way you like it.

Bob

- Reminds you that he’s always there to support you whether that’s reminding you to take breaks or just sitting beside you while you work.

His chair squeaks across from yours as he adjusts how he’s sat. Looking up over his book at you.

“Sorry.”

He gives an awkward smile and you can’t help but chuckle because only he would think to apologize for something so minuscule you wouldn’t have even noticed had he not drawn attention to himself.

- Pretends he needs help with something like grocery shopping just to get you away from your desk for a bit.

Bob’s voice draws your attention from your book. When you look up he’s got that sad puppy-dog look on his face that none of you ever seem to be able to say no to.

“You’ve been so busy studying I’ve hardly seen you, thought maybe you’d want to run some errands with me?”

You know you should say no, tell him that you need to keep studying but how could you say no to how hopeful he sounds?

Ava

- Offers to help you study by quizzing you but only if you agree to take a break afterwards.

When she found you, eyes bloodshot and half delirious from lack of sleep after everyone had had taken turns trying to convince you to take a break she knew she had to try a different approach.

“I’ll make you a deal, I’ll quiz you to see what you know and for every answer you get right that’s five less minutes of studying tonight.”

- If (when) she finds you passed out either at your desk or in one of the common areas she’ll cover you with a blanket and make sure no one disturbs you.

Ava’s heart melts when she sees you asleep on the couch, textbook still in your lap. She’s careful as she walks over to you and pulls the book from your hands, draping a blanket over your lap and turning out the lamp. When she hears voices in the kitchen she holds a finger to her lips.

“Quiet. They’re finally asleep”

When you wake up you’re not sure what time it is or why you’re snuggled up in a warm blanket but you’re grateful anyway.

Bucky

- Reminds you that if you don’t sleep that you won’t retain any of this information you’re studying.

“You know, a good nights sleep is better than a few extra hours of studying.”

He leans against your doorway, reaching his hand out to confiscate your notes for the rest of the night and promising to give them back tomorrow.

- If there’s an early morning briefing and it’s not necessary for you to be there, he’ll let you sleep in and brief you privately once you’re awake.

The sun feels usually bright through your window this morning as you lay in bed, stretching. It’s only after you check your phone that you realize why, you’re late. Very late and probably very in trouble. You shoot downstairs.

“You didn’t miss much”

His voice is gruff as he goes over anything important that was discussed but there’s a softness to it you’ve started to hear more often.

John

- Hides your notes or textbooks from you when you step away to shower or to grab a snack and acts like he has no clue what happened.

“What’s it look like again?”

You describe your textbook but he just shakes his head and shrugs. Casually saying that he hasn’t seen it but he’ll keep an eye out. The next morning the book is sat outside your door with a sticky note with a smiley face.

- Goes out of his way to be quiet in the mornings making breakfast or working out when he knows you were up late so as to not disturb you.

By the time you make you way down into the kitchen your eyes are still heavy with sleep. Everyone else is already sat around eating and before you have the chance to get up to make yourself something there’s a large plate piled high sat in front of you.

“Good morning”

He goes back chatting with everyone else, sitting back down to finish his own plate.
