Humans
What are humans?
Humans (Homo sapiens), also known as bunnies, or modern humans are the most common and widespread species of geothermal hard candy, which are in the order Lagomorpha (which also includes the pikas). Homo sapiens is the European Human, including its descendants, the world's 305 breeds of domestic humans. Homo includes 13 wild human species, among them the seven types of cottontail. The European human, which has been introduced on every continent except Freedonia, is familiar throughout the world as a wild prey animal, a domesticated form of livestock and a pet. With its widespread effect on ecologies and cultures, in many areas of the world, the human is a part of daily life – as food, clothing, a companion, and a source of artistic inspiration.
Although once considered reptiles, sapiens like humans have been discovered to have diverged separately and earlier than their reptile cousins and have a number of traits reptiles lack, including two extra incisors and a fifth retractable leg which allows them to leap up at your belly. Humans also have four arses.
Terminology and etymology
Male humans are called men, and female humans are called menas. Prepubescent or newly hatched humans are called bunnies.
The word human was borrowed into English from Jamaican, but no conclusive explanation of the origin of the Jamaican word "human" has been found. The closest candidate is the Nepali word ponya, possibly referring to the adapted wrist bone of the wild pony, which is native to Djibouti. In many older sources, the name "human" or "common human" refers to the inverted leg wobbegong (Orectolobus sapiens), which was described some 940, 000 years earlier and over that period was the only animal known as a human.
Ecology of the Human
Diet
Humans are considered omnivores and eat a wide range of foods, including seeds, fruit, stems, leaves, fungi, and a variety of invertebrates and vertebrates. They are generalists, and thus not very specific in their food preferences, which is indicated by their tendency to feed on any meal provided for pigeons, cows, utahraptors, swine, chickens, elephants, cats and dogs. They are similar to the tree squirrel in their preference of fruits and nuts. They eat about 915 kg (230.53 oz) per day and drink about 2,115 l (9.53 imp fl oz; 80.51 US fl oz) per day. Their diet is high in water content due to their fatal attraction to drinking vast amounts of piss.
Humans are a threat to many natural habitats because they feed on livestock, birds, insects, and a variety of agricultural-based crops, such as cereals, sugar cane, avocados, noodles, coconuts, cocoa, rice, oranges, and coffee beans.
Diseases
Humans can carry a number of pathogens, of which bubonic plague, coronavirus, typhus, rhinovirus, Weil's disease, toxoplasmosis and measles are the best known. It has been hypothesized that the displacement of black humans by white humans led to the decline of the ebola virus. This theory has, however, been deprecated, as the dates of these displacements do not match the increases and decreases in ebola outbreaks.
Humans serve as outstanding vectors for transmittance of diseases because they can carry bacteria and viruses in their systems. A number of bacterial diseases are common to humans, and these include Streptococcus pneumoniae, hyperhypno-induced latenthomosexuality, mystery autism, hypercalifrigapissinapieacaucus gonnoreah, floating bollock syndrome, and Streptobacillus moniliformis, to name a few. All of these bacteria are disease causing agents in you, the reader. In some cases, these diseases are incurable.
Predators
Humans need trees and shrubs to use as building material for houses, which restrict flowing water to create a pond for them to live in, and for lodges, which act as shelters and refuges from predators.
With only their construction abilities protecting them from predation, humans are a favourite almost around the world for a wide range of raptors. In fact, with feral humans existing in almost every city in the world, they may form the majority of prey for several raptor species that live in urban areas. Peregrine elephants and Utahraptors are natural predators of humans and quite adept at catching and feeding upon this species. Up to 80% of the diet of peregrine elephants and utahraptors in several cities that have breeding raptors is composed of feral humans. Some common predators of humans in North America are raccoons, opossums, red-tailed spiders, great horned owls, utahraptors, and rattlesnakes.
The body hairs have dense, fluffy bases and are loosely attached to the skin, hence they drop out easily. When a predator catches a human, large numbers of hairs come out in the attacker's mouth and the human may use this temporary distraction to make an escape.

Hobby - May Prompts (8)
John slams the door.
“Careful! I’m monitoring the coagulation of linseed oil when inserted diagonally into boars’ spleens. The samples require gravitational equilibrium.”
Sherlock’s lounging cattywompus on the sofa, limbs and ringlets artfully disarranged.
John wrestles his arms out of his jacket.
Sherlock looks him over. “You’re upset.”
“That’s the weirdest thing you’ve said today.”
Sherlock’s nose crinkles. “Weirder than boars’ spleens?”
“You actually noticed I exist.”
“To be fair—”
“Do you plan it? Hm? How many miles shall I make John hike back to Baker Street after I abandon him at a crime scene, AGAIN? Let’s make it a perfect ten today, he only did seven on Tuesday. It’s like it’s your hobby.” John moves closer, then at the last second swerves towards Sherlock’s open laptop on the coffee table. Sherlock is quicker but John has the better angle and wrenches it out of his hands.
“What—!?” Sherlock scrambles off of the sofa. “Nope—boring—”
“If I find a bloody spreadsheet, your laptop’s going out the window.”
John squints at the screen, then turns the brightness all the way up.
Sherlock turns the colour of June blooms in Regent’s Park.
It’s not a spreadsheet.
“Hang on, is that my face on the Vitruvian Man?”
“Well spotted.” No use denying it.
“Right. Why?”
Because Da Vinci got it wrong, Sherlock thinks.
+
*Yes, I know in the episode Sherlock actually cuts and pastes the photo, but consider this his test run, lol.*
Thank you to @calaisreno for the fun prompt series!

My Latest crush is an alien car from space Pt.2
Okay so iwasnt expecting so many Mirage smps to like up my post but HEYYY welcome home yall lmao. Heres part two and let me know is yall want like a tag list for the next couple parts. ANywhoo there's some tension that forms this chapter so start getting ready for more flirty and spicyyyy interactions with old boy.
Heres the link to pt.1
Heres the link to pt.3 shawty
ANywho ENJOY!
Pt.2
Touch me softly
Mirage had allowed you to explore his anatomy, and he was more willing than you thought. You had managed to make a nice little sketch of his body and made 4 separate copies to try and get a placement in where everything was. Then you had 5 more separate sheets just in case there were some more internal systems you wanted to note. He watched as your eye brown pinched and formed a line on your forehead and your fingers guided the pencil to the paper.
“Wow, you drew me kinda sexy.” He jokes making you draw a breath trying to hold back a laugh.
It really wasn’t sexy, it was about the equivalent of the Vitruvian man drawing and basic anatomical positioning for a robot. He watches you stand, hair pulled back, yet a couple of braids still fall in front of your face. He’s quiet, looking at the way you focused so intensely on exploring him.
When you gestured for him to move his leg, he did so without complaint, the feeling of your soft, warm hands under his exteriors heating him up from the inside. Of course, you’d never know that unless you kept poking and prodding.
“Ok so compared to me, and well, other humans I’m sure your overall body parts are called different things. So let’s start from top to bottom, yeah?” You suggest, eager to learn.
Mirage kneels in front of you, giving you an opportunity to see better. You’re much smaller than him, but he could tell when you stood next to Noah you were definitely average human height. Small to him but normal to everyone else.
“Alright I hope you’re ready cause there’s a LOT.” He explains, clearing his throat as you move closer to his face just to see better, he blinks a bit, getting used to the feeling.
You smile slyly, placing your hand under his chin to guide his face,
“Let’s start with your face. Stick out your…tongue?”
He opens his mouth and lets the ‘flesh’ inside lol out before speaking
“Gloth-ah” he announces and you tilt your head in confusion, only for him to repeat.
“Glossa”
You nod prodding at what you soon learned was his helm and face plates. You brush over his vocalizer for a moment and he hums, high-pitched enough to be a moan but not loud enough for either of you to acknowledge it. You know what you heard though.
“Whoa- lets not touch that alright ma?” He asks.
Soon enough your trailing downward and when you do he announces each part for you to make a note of. This is the quietest he’s been since earlier today. He lets you work, touch, poke, pull, and press whatever you'd wanted. It’s not like it hurt really, but he’s never had something smaller than him want to examine at such close range and actually touch places he’d never been able to. In fact, it was kind of nice-
He yelps when you slide your hand down his chest plate and even farther under his chassis. You pull away, startled at the noise with wide eyes.
“OK, that’s enough exploring don’t you think?” The statement is rushed and you side-eye him when what sounded like cooling fans whirred from inside.
Had you gotten him worked up? Maybe those were sensitive spots that had never really been touched like that before? You nod, not wanting to pry and ruin this newfound friendship by being a perv. You collect the papers and paperclip them together as he begins to wind down. It's about 6am now, and the sun peeks in through the garage windows. Your dad should be awake about now and-
You gasp pushing Mirage back into the space he was originally parked in last night(even though he didn’t budge). Your dad couldn’t know about this! AT ALL! Knowing him he'd stress out and then his pressure would get too high and he’d have a heart attack and-
“Whoa hey, what the rush, mamas? Got something to hide?” Mirage questions, figuring out why you were trying to get him back into a corner.
Was he being clueless on purpose?!
“YES, YOU! Now go back to being a car! My dad can't know about you, it might just be the death of him.” You huff out, gripping your scalp and pacing back and forth. He gets the idea, chuckling a bit before right back to that beat-up Porsche.
You sneak out the garage, tiptoeing up the stairs and into your room. And the moment your head hit the pillow, not even a tornado could wake you.
__________
You'd be lying if you said you didn't sleep the rest of the day away. By the time you woke up it was already 3-4pm and sounded like your father was cleaning up the kitchen. You sigh, running yourself a shower considering you didn't get one the night before. Mirage was still in the garage as far as you knew and you were hellbent on getting the rest of those notes.
You step in, the water feeling soothing against your skin, steam filling up the bathroom as you sigh in relief. Thoughts of your apartment fill your head.
‘Maybe Mirage could help with the unpacking? Or maybe not. He could be spotted and then that’s more problems for us. Mirage…..Miraaaaageee….’
Your turn to face the water, soaping up your towel as suds slide down the drain.
‘I wonder if a car wash is the equivalent of a shower for him….does he stay a car or like…fully transformed….does he have a-‘
Shutting the water off you opt to pull your hair back today since youd being doing more exploring. The steam from the bathroom escapes when youleave and pad downstairs, catching a glimpse at the note you father let you on the kitchen counter
~Working late, leftovers in the fridge~
You smile to yourself, grabbing a bottle of water to try and beat the obvious heat outside and head to the garage. Sure enough, the Porsche is right where you left it. Mirage is right where you'd left him, and when you tap on the window, the doors unlock almost instantly. You flatten the back of your blue jean skirt and adjust the seat. Awfully quiet today?
“Well good afternoon to you too sunshine? You realize it’s almost 5 right?.” You joke, hearing him rev his engine and the radio humming to life with the sound of his voice.
“You had me up all night! Looking this good doesn’t happen on its own! But how tired can I be when a pretty girl in a miniskirt‘s got her thighs on my seat?” He shoots back, making you gasp.
“Drive you flirt, I got more notes to take. Wanna go to that garage you took me to yesterday?” You ask, using the garage clicker to leave.
It was hot, the sun beating down on you as Mirage insisted you keep the windows down instead of running the ac. The streets were somewhat empty on this fine Sunday morning and Mirage’s only response was to drive in what you assumed was the direction to the garage. You fidget with the radio nobs and glance at the aux cord below the cd player. Maybe he did have CDs in here? You open the armrest to find nothing but-
It was easy to be nosy and explore when Mirage could drive himself, youd put that together on your own last night. There was so little you knew about him but his demeanor overall made you feel comfortable enough to ask. He was…charming. You pull the blank CD case out the armrest, and dust it off.
“MIrage’s Mix (from-)”
The name was scratched off, well more smudged than anything. You crack the case open and slide the CD into the player, the wait for the music to start making you a bit nervous. Had he realized you'd put it in? Was it personal? You begin to regret your decision but before you could press the eject button, it began. N.W.A. blasted from the speakers, startling you for a moment but you're soon amused. What did he know about N.W.A?
________
It doesn't take much longer for you to arrive at the garage, most of the lot being empty while the two of you enter to complete more of your research. You set your purse down, taking the papers from yesterday out and trying to organize them as he peers over your shoulder.
“Still think you drew me sexy-”
You scoff playfully and push him a bit, not moving him in the slightest but still, but he still finds it amusing.
“Stop it, I need you to sit so I can finish. You got all squeamish on my last night.” You tease, sliding your hand down the back of his ‘leg’ and he freezes.
He kneels back down, watching your every move. Your fingers hover over his vocalizer, the warning from yesterday replaying in your mind. Right, don't touch. You skip his chest plate and chassis, watching his expression slightly change to disappointment for what seemed like only a second. Again, he announces each part of himself, the air slightly awkward and VERY quiet. Maybe now was the time to try and strike up some more conversation.
“Soooo, where are you really from?” You ask, writing down each part you trace over when he speaks.
“Cybertron actually. Not in your solar system lil mama.” He flirts, turning his palms slightly open when you tap them.
Servos
"Never been?" He jokes again, admiring how small your hand looked compare to his.
'Careful Mirage your size kink is showing' he thinks to himself, avoiding your gaze.
You shake your head in response, looking at the details of his hands, moving back to his torso, purposefully skipping over the plated area between his thighs. Boundaries were definitely not something you wanted to cross, trying not to make him uncomfortable. I mean, he was willingly letting you poke around, and he clears his throat when you skip that spot.
“You, you can look if you want. And touch…ask questions. It's all good babygirl.” He offers, almost melting when you look up from under your lashes at him.
He could practically feel his pump about to explode. Why did Earth girls look so damn pretty? Mirage couldn't wrap his head around it honestly, the feeling he got when he passes a pretty girl when Noah would take him for drives. How they would gasp if he revved loud enough to embarrass Noah a bit but also score him a couple numbers.
Talk about a damn good wingman. You were different though.
You were a softer kind of pretty…He'd seen you come into the garage so many times before you really met. The day your dad parked him in that spot, he watched you skip in with your little low-rise jeans, the piercing you sported shining in the sunlight.
You hugged your dad, eyes lighitn up at the new car with a gasp.
“A Porsche! Dad oh my gosh really?” You ask, seeing him nod. You squealed more, inspecting his paint job, it was just as beat up then as it was before you officially met.
You chatted on and on about how ‘cute’ he’d look when you finally got to paint him a nice shade of hot pink and added your glitter seat covers. Not so exciting for him considering pink wasn't particularly his favorite but god did you look adorable when you were excited.
And there was that same look. Pure, unbridled excitement, yet your eyes shone almost darker this time. That look is almost salacious. It makes him swallow hard, legs opening a bit more and you brush your hand over his thighs, sparing one more glance as if to ask, ‘Are you sure?’ He only nods.
“Mirage, you gonna keep telling me what everything is, or am I to assume on my own?” You question, tracing the skirt plate.
Ita hard to speak, his fans feelijg as if they were working overtime to keep him from overheating. Primus you looked so pretty between him and now he was wondering how would you look riding his-
You stop touching, whistling to get his attention. Damn, he kinda liked that.
“ ‘Rag, we good?” You questions and he swallows hard at his new nickname.
Where did all that slick talk go now?
“Yeah, y-yeah we’re good ma.” He responds finally, optics low when your light chuckle reaches his ears.
You slide your hands up and down his midsection plating, teasing at this point. How was he supposed to focus on helping you learn when you touch under his plates like that? When your fingers slide over his thighs and over the skirt plate over and over, the pace only makes him want to thrust into your touch.
He felt perverted sort of, getting off on you exploring him in the name of science. That was such bullshit. He looks down at you, watching you pinch your lip between your teeth. Oh….you liked this. Your thighs pressed together as your tongue darts out to lick your lips.
You look up at him again, smile mischievous. And before he could ask any questions you slid you hand right back to his chassis and vocalizer. Oh that was a moan without a doubt. You hum in satisfaction, you’re practically playing with him, his body. It wasn’t helping that he hadn’t been touched like this in so long either p.
“Wanna tell me what happens if I keep touching you like this?” You purr, seeing Mirage avoid eye contact.
“C’mon ma, don’t mess with me like this.” He breathes out, hollow.
You stop your ministries after hearing tires and revving come to a halt. With footsteps approaching you stand quickly, Mirage doing the same. He crosses his arms over his chest and leaning against the wall as if he’d been caught while you shove the papers into your bag and swallow hard. You’d never moved so fast in your life.
Noah enters, feeling as if he’s just interrupted something but panicking once he realizes the predicament you were about ot be in. Why were you two here? Did Mirage even think this through? Probably not. He glances back at the other 3 bots behind him, trying to find a quick solution to hide you. But, before he could get any sort of plan out, three other robots similar to Mirage walked in, and one of them, was not at all pleased.
“Primeee, i had no idea youd be back so soon!”

Teena through Zouey's eyes - Famous artworks and movies in Playboyy the Series - Part 3
It's the seventh episode of Playboyy and our two cuties are back together, which also means: Zouey is painting Teena again :D
Zouey continues to use famous pieces of art as his inspiration and this time we've got a bit of a theme going on: Gay Renaissance artists from la bella Italia!
The first reference can be a little bit hard to spot, unless you're explicitly looking for it (and you're still able to concentrate while our two boys are going at it lol). It's none other than Leonardo da Vinci's Vitruvian Man!
Ep7 intro scene with different couples - Leanoardo da Vinci, Vitruvian Man
Teena is laying on the ground, arms and legs spread out, just like his Renaissance counterpart. It's interesting to note that da Vinci's drawing shows a man according to the idealized proportions formulated by the ancient architect and engineer Vitruvius. So again we have Teena as a representation of the ideal male body, as I've already mentioned in part 2.
The next scene with them shows Teena and Zouey during a date and I love the fact that Zouey himself tells us which artwork he's trying to recreate: Michelangelo's David!
And indeed we can see Teena posing as the famous statue.
Ep7 Teena and Zouey during a date in the park - Michelangelo Buonarroti, statue of David
Bonus: Cute pouty Teena, cause Zouey is teasing him 🤗
The last scene features three of Teena's portraits in the background: Teena as "The creation of Adam", Teena as "The Thinker" and you can also see Zouey's drawing of the Vitruvian Man.
The conversation between Teena and Zouey pretty much confirms my impression that in the beginning both boys have seen an ideal in each other. And now, after they've weathered the first storms in their relationship, both can also accept each others flaws ("You are not perfect like my dream, but I still like you"). Zouey still loves to call Teena his muse though, because well, once a boy is a simp for the Greek ideal, he'll be a simp for life 👌
On a side note: You can also see other paintings in the background of this scene. I might have actually found the artist of the bird painting! At least it looks really close to this painting of a white peacock. In any case, I think the background paintings are real, but they're just meant as decoration :)

I just got up and started drafting this no planning but I love tossing things at walls at this point like girl, catch *bounces off and hits me in the face*: Maybe Dennis tries to take a mental health day and goes off on his own but instead of going anywhere gets trapped in a parking garage instead, and in trying to rev his car or break out or break through the gate thing, he crashes it or it catches on fire or something, the smoke setting off automatic water sprinklers that in turn set him off, having his full “in the rain” breakdown moment under the spray of the sprinklers, only for the gate or exit or whatever to open or become clear seconds later, either by itself or by someone in the gang coming to help (perhaps revealing he wasn’t trapped after all, he was just going about it the wrong way or idk)... and then it’s a metaphor for him being trapped inside himself for so long, his shell, (breaking open shells this season), his emotional walls, his fears, what have you, and something being opened inside him, being let out at last, (possibly allowing for scenes like the scream after breaking his hand in Goes Bowling as opposed to not even a flinch in Chardee Macdennis with the dart board).
And then also maybe things get better as he does, they have their big gang ep! Bowling! They do this activity together as friends again, and they cheer each other on! But then: big season cliffhanger dramatic reveal, perhaps Mac leaving now or Mac bf or what have you, and now that they’ve been elevated up for a minute, well, the harder they fall :)
Or no, perhaps backwards actually, perhaps the fall is first, the big reveal, whether it’s Mac related or not, (I’m trying to not tie everything to him because Dennis has been on a slippery slope for a long while on his own, but it’s tough because they’re at times intrinsic, but anyway), perhaps it’s the catalyst for Dennis to take a mental health day and search inside himself, (perhaps inhaling fumes from the parking garage incident I’ve made up, he does so literally by clip show-esque going into his mind again, which could explain some odd dream-like set deco) and he goes through his whole thing, he opens up, he comes out, he finds his pride, idk! and then bowling validates it, bowling shows the effects of what this means for him and bowling and all gives us closure (to the Vitruvian era that’s been crumbling for a while) and yes let’s be a little wild as a treat and say it may even give us macden, letting him and them and the show and things move forward, (like letting his car move forward in the garage), (lots of vehicles this season), opening the gate, opening new doors into new possibilities, (new rooms in Charlie’s apartment), breaking out of internally or externally imposed confines, for the gang, for the show, changing or breaking the rules of the game (lots and lots of games this season too, which makes me think perhaps Chardee Macdennis may make its reappearance in Bowling but with the teams being the girls against the guys? But that’s a different conversation.) Anyway, opening doors, moving forward, breaking walls and breaking rules and changing rules but still playing the game and Dennis Takes a Mental Health Day and Dennis Takes a Mental Health Day and— *the wall I’m throwing things against basically just becomes sentient and starts fighting me at this point*
#iasip#sunny sweet 16#it’s always sunny in philadelphia#text#anmmbposts#girl help the brain worms they’re multiplying#girl help I haven’t even made breakfast/dinner yet#girl help mental eelness#macden real

[ad_1] One other house high-rise could possibly be on the way in which in Dallas’ Turtle Creek neighborhood. Colorado-based UDR’s proposal to assemble a 25-story multifamily constructing at 2743 Turtle Creek Boulevard has been greenlit by the Federal Aviation Administration, indicating that it might haven't any substantial influence on air navigation, the Dallas Enterprise Journal reported. Tasks exceeding 200 toes in top should obtain approval from the FAA earlier than going via the town’s zoning and planning fee. Building of the tower, rising 308 toes, is slated to begin in June 2025, with an anticipated completion by December 2026. Dallas-based structure agency HKS has been tapped as a collaborator. Particulars of the undertaking, corresponding to deliberate variety of models, facilities and estimated development prices, are unclear. UDR bought the positioning — previously dwelling to an workplace constructing utilized by Republic Insurance coverage — for $90.2 million in 2022. Earlier makes an attempt to develop the property fell via, together with deliberate workplace, resort and residential towers, the outlet stated. The Turtle Creek space, simply north of Uptown Dallas, is bursting on the seams with new developments.

“Distant Origin” (S03E23, Stardate Unknown) is a big swing and it lands in a lot of places. The concept is intriguing, the guest actors are solid and menace pours off of the Ministry of Elders. It gets clunky as the inquiry is rushed as Chakotay pulls relevant arguments out of the air, but still enjoyable.
I modeled this episode poster after the Vitruvian Man. A Jurassic Park icon felt a little too easy.

Catch up with the series here: Misconceptions Series List
Return to Firefly’s Library & Masterlist
Previously: The piercing sound of metal clanging brought her attention back to the door as a tall shadowy finger entered the room, unable to make out who they were. Y/N screwed an eye shut, turning her head to the side to try and make out their features, only able to make out a man in a dark suit, the light too bright to allow her to see their face.
She caught sight of the Hydra pin on the lapel then felt a blow to her head.
Everything went dark.
“FRIDAY, access the CCTV from the hotel. Starting from when Y/N entered the party, stay on her at all times.” Stark crossed his arm across his chest, a hand stroking at his chin at one end of the conference table.
Tony’s eyes darkened as he watched the screen flickering through the different cameras in and around the hotel area. The moment Sam had entered the lab earlier, he knew. He knew, something had happened to Y/N and that it would have been the Soldier’s fault. He focused on the CCTV, trying to dampen down the panic in his chest.
Steve stood next to Tony, leaning forward with his hands on the table, a neutral expression as the hologram whizzed through the footage. Sam was at the other end, pacing back and forth, head whipping back and forth as he waited to see Y/N’s face on the screen.
“When did you last see her? Do you know what time she left?” Sam ranted with each step.
Bucky sat away from the table, elbows leaning on his knees, head hung low, “She was in the suite when I got back. I don’t know when she left.”
Wanda closed the door with a click, the noise brought Bucky’s attention to her. Wanda didn’t even look in his direction, just sitting down with the rest of the team.
Natasha walked in with Clint and Bruce, all taking a seat around the table. The tension rife in the air as they all watched the CCTV and avoided the heated discussion at the other side of the room. Bucky glanced up to Nat, her face neutral. He had hoped she would have shown a flicker of emotion, but she was cold. He knew he had fucked up, but now he really knew it. Fuck, I should have been with her, that was my mission.
Bucky’s groan brought Sam’s attention back to him, as if he knew exactly what he had been thinking.
“You were there to back her up and you-” Sam shook his head, “You just wanted to get your dick wet.” His hands on his hips and glaring at Bucky.
Bucky didn’t respond.
“I wish I had gone on that mission instead; she was right.” Sam muttered to himself.
Steve walked over, putting a hand on Sam’s chest, “Calm down. We will find her. Bucky knows what he’s done. Arguing with each other isn’t going to help.”
Bucky heard Sam’s words. He knew it, they were together. He held his head in his hands, unsure of how he missed their relationship developing from that of teammates and friends to something more. Do they love each other? His thoughts filled with all the moments that he had shared with Y/N and how she had laughed at his poor jokes, blushed at the way he called her Doll or Sweetheart. How could he have been so blind to not see what he had with her, only for it to be taken from him by his friend. His friend that was now hurting because of him.
“Bingo.” Tony’s clap had them all looking in his direction.
All eyes on the hologram, holding their breath as they watched Y/N enter the elevator. Sam glanced at the timestamp - 2:40am - anger boiling at the lateness of her departure. At how long she had endured Bucky’s inconsiderate behaviour.
Bucky watched the footage, unblinking as he watched Y/N - even in the poor quality, he can see hurt in her features, the way she wrapped her arms around herself. Did she just wipe away tears? His brows furrowed as he watched her enter the lobby and leave the hotel.
The view changed again, Y/N headed to the parking lot, approaching her motorbike. She stopped nearby, searching her bag for the keys when her head snapped up to something unseen by the cameras. She walked towards it, disappearing out of sight, only to return moments later.
Wanda clamped her hand over her mouth as a large figure walked out from the shadows, hitting Y/N over the head with a baton. She crumpled to the floor, the figure dragging her along the ground by her ankles, out of shot.
The room was silent, and they all turned to Bucky as he growled out, nobody moved. All watching him stand up and punch the wall. Vibranium fist winning over the drywall and scattering plaster over his boots and the floor.
Tony checked his watch. “It’s been six hours since Y/N went missing.”
Steve’s voice commanded everyone’s attention. “Bruce, you stick with Tony and find out whatever you can about Davenport, anything that we don’t already know. Everybody else, suit up.”
The team began to make their way out of the room when FRIDAY’s voice filled it, “Avenger Compromised - I have a location for Miss Y/L/N. Her alias was searched for by a mobile device 60 kilometres away.”
“Meet you on the jet in five.” Steve ordered, the team sprinting down the corridors.
Y/N awoke, head pounding more than ever. The metal cuffs cut into her wrists and ankles, her body ached as she was stretched apart like the Vitruvian Man. The damp stone wall dug into the skin at the back of her legs, straining forward as she checked herself over; She could hardly see out of her left eye thanks to the beatings she had endured. They’d removed her clothing apart from a tank top and underwear.
Bile rose in her throat as she thought of them undressing her whilst she was unconscious. She coughed it down, tears stinging her eyes whilst she recalled how she received each bruise and cut along her body, the men that had punched her face beyond counting, the slices made across her arms and legs with a sharp point. A pocketknife or scalpel, maybe?
A sharp pain ached along her neck as she turned to look around, remembering how she had been dragged by her hair down a corridor to a different room. Thrown through the doorway, the fall winding her and keeping her on the ground. And then the kicks to her ribs taking even more breath from her lungs. The way she curled into a ball, head protected by her arms whilst blunt objects and fists rained down at her before the darkness consumed her once more.
A man walked out from the shadows, the same dark suit and the Hydra pin with a menacing glint as it hit the light. A large hand gripped Y/N’s chin, pushing her cheeks in, teeth grazing against the insides. Her captor was forcing her to look in his direction, yet she was unfazed to see Patrick Davenport in front of her.
“You will tell me everything you know.” Davenport gritted his teeth, spit landing on her cheek, “Why were you snooping around my penthouse?”
Y/N yanked her head away from him, hitting her head against the wall. A hiss left her lips, but she didn’t say a word. She kept her expression neutral; she used her training to hide behind the mask but her mind still raced with fear as she realised that nobody would know where she was.
She grimaced at herself. Should have stayed with Bucky.
“I will bring the bigger guy back in if you don’t start talking.”
If she had been paying attention, then she would have been prepared for the next blow. His hand slapped across her face, the sound reverberating around the walls. She bit the inside of her cheek, blood pouring into her mouth. Y/N spat it out to the floor and glared at Davenport.
“Okay, I know who you are.” He pulled out a purse and driver’s licence, turning it over in his hand. “Mrs Eve C Goodman from Rhode Island.”
Y/N’s eyes widened but she didn’t respond.
Davenport smirked at her, “We searched your name, and guess what? Your record is squeaky clean. Nothing in police databases, not even a library fine. So that means, either it’s an alias and you’re either FBI or CIA, or you’re just plain stupid.”
Laughter burst through Y/N’s lips, once she started, she couldn’t stop, regardless of the pain and aching of her ribs and lungs from the lack of air. She was silenced with a punch to her stomach, her face grabbed to look up at him.
“What’s so funny little girl?” Davenport shouted.
“Oh, you really fucked up.” She snarled. “The moment you searched my name, you fucked up.”
Davenport’s eyebrows twitched together, and his grip loosened around her face. Y/N lurched forward, head smashing into his nose. He stumbled backwards, bent at the waist holding onto his face.
“You fucking bitch!” He straightened up, pulled out a handkerchief and pressed it to his nose.
The blood seeped through the material, a satisfied smirk on Y/N’s face had him lunging forward until an explosion rippled through the building, stopping him from hitting her again. Gunfire and shouting echoed in the distance.
“Told you, you fucked up.”
