#Avengers Trinity

The Avengers trinity by David Aja (Hawkeye, Immortal Iron Fist).

[giveamadeuschohisownmovie]

An easy way to explain RDJ being Doctor Doom is if it’s established that some variants are actually doppelgängers of established characters. Like as part of the chaos of the multiverse, some people end up looking like a completely different character in another universe. To retroactively justify this:

1) MCU Kate Bishop’s doppelgänger is Gwen Stacy from Spider-Verse

2) Apocalypse’s doppelgänger is Marc Spector/Steven Grant/Jake Lockley

3) Deadpool’s doppelgänger is Hannibal King from Blade Trinity

With this explanation, we also justify why certain characters are played by different actors (ex: the 3 Spider-Mans).

dc is doing a little mini relaunch after the current crossover finishes and honestly thank god because literally only two of their current ongoings interest me but there's a bunch of fun looking stuff happening in november that i might actually look at. and also it's starting series for several guys who should have had ongoings this whole time like the fucking JUSTICE LEAGUE

"For me, “Oppenheimer” was definitely the riskiest film we have made — with the possible exception of “Inception,” which felt risky at the time. Even with Chris being who he is at this point, I didn’t feel there was a guaranteed audience for this film. I hoped people would feel they needed to see it in theaters, but many people still weren’t back post-COVID. And there’s the fact we’ve heard nothing but “theaters are over” for a while now. So it wasn’t a no-brainer. Not only did it feel like it was a risky film to make, it felt like the stakes had never been higher. So the fact we had such a good summer was more gratifying than anything."

“The Riddler, Batman, and Catwoman”?

No, no, it’s pronounced “Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss.”

Thor: Well I was a boyscout.Steve , you were a boyscout, weren't you?

Steve: No, but I ate a brownie once.

Steve : Is this Bruce’s funeral? Is that the corpse of Bruce Banner? Thor, is that you?

[Thor waves, embarrassed]

Steve : Are you with Tony? Where'd you guys park?

Thor :Steve!

Bucky: I spent the best years of my life sittin' on the porch, playin' the harmonica, waitin' for somethin' better. And the years have been goin' by faster, and faster, and then, all of a sudden, I was an old man.

Steve: Well I bet you can play the shit outta that harmonica!

Bucky : That I can. 'Cept there's no one around to hear me play it. Piece of advice: you can lose your money. You can spend it - all of it. Maybe work hard, get it all back. But if you waste your time, you're never gonna get it back.

Tony : I'm out.

Thor: What does that mean?

Steve: I think it means he's out. Like coming out, like he's finally admitting he's gay.

Tony: This trip is officially over! This is finished! Let's just go home.

Steve: I agree. That is a great idea. All we've got to do is jump up over that 100-foot waterfall, swim upstream 20 miles, get the sheriff on the phone... he liked us, I remember. And he'll send out a rescue boat. And... hey, there's a beer in the river. Cool.

Thor: Come back to bed, you guys. I'm freezing.

Steve : Not until he puts Jabba back in his Hut!

Tony: Hey, that sounds like Creed.

Steve: I never thought I'd be happy to hear anything that sounds like Creed.

Steve: I'm not an astronaut, I'm an American.

Steve: We'll shine them. It's an old Cherokee trick.

Thor: Oh, I forgot. The Cherokee have been using flashlights for thousands of years.

Tony: Didn't they pioneer the D-cell battery?

Steve : [as a bear sniffs around Tony] Stay calm. Get in the fetal position. It won't bother you if you're in the fetal position.

[the bear roars]

Steve: Abort the fetal position! It's not working!

Thor : [laying in the boat, after rapid riding] I about shit. Did you about shit?

Steve: I about shit.

Tony : I did shit.

Thor: Oh shit!

Tony : What? Oh, shit? Oh, shit! What? Oh, shit?

Tony : [while falling off the waterfall]

[all together shout]

Tony: Oh, shit!

Thor: So this is Spirit River, we take that to Widowmaker Bend and then we hike to Devil's Staircase and that should lead us right to the top of Hellfire...

Tony: What's with all these satanic names? Isn't there, like, a Fluffy Bunny Way?

Steve : No... but there's a Shut-Up-You-Big-Baby Ridge.

Steve: It was like her eyes were trying to escape her head

Tony : I bet you a hundred grand and my left nut that all you catch in that river is a cold.

Steve: [after catching a fish] You owe me a hundred grand AND the left nut!

Steve: This never leaves the cave.

Tony: I wouldn't be so jealous of me if I were you. Every day I develop some new and exciting phobia.

Thor: You're exaggerating again.

Tony : I'm afraid of the dark,Thor .

Thor: So? There's a lot of people that are afraid of the dark.

Tony: I'm afraid of small spaces.

Thor : Again, not that abnormal.

Tony : Cellophane.

Steve : Like Saran Wrap?

Thor: Yeah, you're alone on that one.

Tony: I won't even keep it in the house anymore, because I'm afraid that somehow it'll get draped over my head and stick to my mouth and nose and I'll suffocate. How pathetic is that?

Steve: Very.

Steve: So you're saying you lost the map? You don't have it?

Thor: No, I'm saying I forgot to hold on to it while my ass was free-falling over a 100 foot waterfall

Steve: So you don't have it?

Thor: Wait a second.Steve, were you really employee of the month?

Steve : No! I lied about that too!

Steve: [urging dan to climb through a hole] Come on Tony, your the only one small enough to get through.

Thor : That's what she said.

Namor: So... are you a class... 4,5?

Steve: Yeah? Yeah? Why don't you try to put those numbers together. Yeah. I shot a class 45, and haven't lost a man yet.

Namor : Lie to me! I don't care. I'm not the one who's going to drown.

Bucky: Come with me, or I'll shoot your testicles off and stuff 'em and mount 'em on my mantlepiece.

Steve : That's gonna be an ugly mantlepiece.

Steve : Great mother of ganja!

Thor : Let's take Bruce's trip.

Steve: I say hell yes!

Steve: [whilst high on marijuana, in a Pakistani accent] I will give you four cows for sif 's hand in marriage!

Tony: Are you running immigrants over the boarder again, coyote?

Steve: Those guys fell asleep in my truck! I thought I'd just gotten shit-faced and bought a bunch of sombreros. I didn't know there were dudes underneath.

Thor: [canoing through rapids] Steve , it's getting big!

Steve : No problem.

Thor : Like, really big!

Steve : I'm in over my head!

Thor: What?

Steve : I'm in over my head!

Thor: Don't tell me that!

Natasha : My name is Natasha .

Peggy: You may call me Peggy .

Natasha: And if you're from the logging company you'll have to speak to our lawyers!

Steve: [whispers to Thor ] If you look to your left you can totally see their downstairs.

Thor: [calling] Uh, we're not, we're not from the logging company.

Natasha , Peggy: [smiling and putting two fingers up] Peace!

Thor, Steve,Tony: H-hey! Peace!

Thor : How do you guys get supplies?

Natasha: [happily] When we need supplies, we radio the Earthchild Support Network!

Thor: [encouraged] Radio? You guys have a *radio*?

Peggy: Yeah we haven't used it since that last big thunderstorm. Remember that Flower?

Natasha : [inspired] Oh my god. That thunderstorm was *so* spiritual.

[Natasha gets up and dances as the guys look on, mesmerised]

Natasha : [dreamily] Earthchild's limps were waving and heaving back and forth. It was like she was dancing to the rhythm of the thunder. It was just like... BAM! BAM! BAM! Full on, tantric orgasm.

Steve : So where is this radio?

Tony : Tree had a orgasm?

[Peggy gets up and excitedly holdsNatasha 's hands]

Natasha : [excited] We danced naked in the storm all night!

Peggy : [dreamily] And then held each other soaking wet until the morning!

[Tony watches totally mesmerised]

Peggy: [she and Natasha look towards the guys] The rain is like a drug. It just makes you wanna...

Tony: What? Makes you wanna what?

[Peggy and Natasha look at each other, giggle and run over to the guys and sit by them]

Tony: [after Steve had offered to distract Dennis and Elwood instead of Thor ] Give 'em hell, Stevie

Steve: [about to rapple down the tree] This Hellmart's open for business, and I'm slashing prices.

Thor: When we get out of this someone's buying a round of drinks, not it.

Steve: Not it.

Tony: Is there beer in heaven?

Thor: I was thinking more the bar in town.

Steve: We'll shine them.

Thor : That would kill the fish.

Steve : Let's go through there.

Tony: Where? There's no door!

Steve: His forest name is 'Slug'!

Tony : You guys are spraying me.

Steve : Give me a break. I'm writing your name.

Tony: Stop it!

////

Tony: Where are we?

Thor: Corner of Bumfuck and You Got a Purty Mouth.

Tony: What are you doing?

Thor: Taking off my shoes

Tony: Why?

Thor: Because I run faster with no shoes

Tony : You can't out-run that bear!

Thor: I dont have to out-run the bear, I just have to out-run you!

Tony : I'm out.

Thor : What does that mean?

Steve : I think it means he's out. Like coming out, like he's finally admitting he's gay.

Tony: The only chance we have to survive is to huddle together for warmth...

Thor: I, for one, choose death.

Tony : This trip is officially over! This is finished! Let's just go home.

Steve: I agree. That is a great idea. All we've got to do is jump up over that 100-foot waterfall, swim upstream 20 miles, get the sheriff on the phone... he liked us, I remember. And he'll send out a rescue boat. And... hey, there's a beer in the river. Cool.

[Bruce's French speaking girlfriend rubs herself on his casket]

Tony :Bruce 's dead and he still has a better chance of getting laid than I do.

Tony: Hey, that sounds like Creed.

Steve: I never thought I'd be happy to hear anything that sounds like Creed.

Steve : We'll shine them. It's an old Cherokee trick.

Thor : Oh, I forgot. The Cherokee have been using flashlights for thousands of years.

Tony : Didn't they pioneer the D-cell battery?

Tony: [the three boys are wearing only their boxers at night, after losing their clothes] You know, things are as bad as they could possibly get.

[starts raining hard,Thor and Steve look up at the rain]

Tony : I stand corrected!

Thor : Come on, Tony . It's like when we'd jump off the railroad bridge into the river when we were kids. That was... higher than this...

Tony : But I never *did* jump in the river! You guys always pushed me when I wasn't looking!

Thor: Oh yea...

[Thor pushes tony off the Treehouse]

Tony: [doing his best c3p0 voice] We are in serious trouble my friends. All data points to us being... how do you human's say it? Completely screwed.

Tony : yeah. You know, that is... that's a good way to say it. That pretty much sums it up.

Tony : [doing his best c3p0 voice] As expected, Steve is... drunk.

Thor: [laying in the boat, after rapid riding] I about shit. Did you about shit?

Steve : I about shit.

Tony: I did shit.

Thor: Oh shit!

Tony: What? Oh, shit? Oh, shit! What? Oh, shit?

Steve : Very.

Tony : [lying in a bed] So happy right now.

[the camera pans out, revealing Natasha lying next to Tony ]

Natasha: [lovingly] That was really... really beautiful.

[Tony smiles and Natasha moves closer and kisses him]

Natasha: [lovingly holding Tony] Hmmm will you get the light hon'?

Tony : Oh... yeah.

[Tony turns the light off using his foot]

Natasha : [kindly] You're so good at that now.

[Tony giggles]

Tony: Mmm, bacon.

Bucky: Squirrel.

Tony : Mmm... squirrel.

Tony: [as Natasha is lovingly attending to him] I'm very good at giving a back massage... so if you wanna roll down those stockings I could give you one.

Natasha: Stockings?

Tony: Uh, leg warmers?

Natasha : [shows Tony one of her very hairy legs] I'm all natural.

[Natasha giggles]

Tony : Supernatural.

Tony: I have responsibilities and... I am a doctor now! I AM DOCTOR Stark NOW!

Tony: It crawled straight in my stomach!

Thor: Come on, let's go

Tony: I think it laid its eggs in my stomach!

Thor: You're a lot smarter than him. Right Tony ?

Tony: Well, I wouldn't say a lot smarter.

Tony: Are you running immigrants over the boarder again, coyote?

Steve : Those guys fell asleep in my truck! I thought I'd just gotten shit-faced and bought a bunch of sombreros. I didn't know there were dudes underneath.

Tony : This is exactly what you hear about when people go into the deep woods in the middle of the summertime! Aside from getting all sorts of diseases and things, they just wind up being the victims of some kind of unexpected man-rape!

Natasha : My name is Natasha .

Peggy: You may call me Peggy .

Natasha: And if you're from the logging company you'll have to speak to our lawyers!

Steve : [whispers to Thor] If you look to your left you can totally see their downstairs.

[Peggy and Flower look at each other, giggle and run over to the guys and sit by them]

Bucky : Remember, carry your friends wherever you go.

Tony: Close to your heart.

Bucky: Or on your back. I got C.B'.s bones in my satchel. Thought I'd give 'em a proper burial. I spent 30 years waiting to have a life!

Tony : Whoa... Matrix.

Tony : [after Steve had offered to distract Dennis and Elwood instead of Thor ] Give 'em hell, Stevie

Steve: [about to rapple down the tree] This Hellmart's open for business, and I'm slashing prices.

Tony : Hey guys look! A wild deer! All out in the open like that!

[Deer growls]

Tony : Stop, drop, and roll!

Thor: When we get out of this someone's buying a round of drinks, not it.

Steve : Not it.

Tony: Is there beer in heaven?

Thor : I was thinking more the bar in town.

Tony : What does the map say, Thor ?

Thor: Oh, you know, it's a map.

Tony : Thor , didn't you see that the river split on the map?

Thor : I would have if your friend the big-ass bear hadn't eaten it!

Steve: Let's go through there.

Tony: Where? There's no door!

Tony : You guys are spraying me.

Steve: Give me a break. I'm writing your name.

[Sif carries a cardboard box into her house as the answer machine comes on]

Thor: [on the answer machine] Hi, this is Thor , and I can't come to the phone right now because I am busy trying to convince the love of my life to give me another chance. And I will prove to her that I grew up just enough to know that I want the responsibility day in and day out of being there for her in this relationship which I am hoping will someday become marriage, kids and an *unbelievably* happy life together.

[Sif starts to smile as she hears the message]

Thor : [hangs up] Hi honey.

[Thor gets down on one knee and proposes to Sif , who accepts his proposal. Thor stands up and embraces her]

Sif : Can you please be serious for 5 minutes?

Thor: My record is 4 but I think I can do it.

Steve : So you're saying you lost the map? You don't have it?

Thor : No, I'm saying I forgot to hold on to it while my ass was free-falling over a 100 foot waterfall

Steve: So you don't have it?

Thor : But you could've left! Why'd you stay up here all these years?

Bucky : Seemed like a good idea at the time. Know what I mean, kid?

Thor : Yeah, I do.

Bucky : Have you ever spent 30 years in a cabin?

Thor : ...No.

Bucky : Well, then you don't know what I mean!

Thor: I mean, metaphorically, I know what you mean.

Del Knox : Metaphorically, have you ever spent 30 years in a cabin?

Thor: Uh - no.

Bucky : Well then think before you talk!

Thor : Wait a second. Steve , were you really employee of the month?

Steve : No! I lied about that too!

Tribute

I laughed almost non-stop watching Deadpool & Wolverine. The crass and gross and the ridiculous are mixed in with just a bit of clever. And then there's the pure joy of watching to almost indestructible dudes killing each other in violent ways (it's a WB cartoon kind of fun).

But as always it's the layer below the humour that really hits. And in a prefect Deadpool way this one worked both in the movie but also on the meta level. It's the story of a failed superhero that the Avengers didn't want and whose girlfriend left. Here trying to save his world to save his friends. He gets a second chance at being who he always wanted to be but the price is abandoning everyone he came up with. MCU and Sacred Timeline is one person deal. But this is where Multiverse pays off. It means he can keep his friends and timeline. He just has to fight cybernocracy that would rather dismantle it instantly first.

And it's a story of a fallen studio which movies lost the audience and couldn't find the right way to tell it's stories (with extra layer of Disney's Marvel being on precipice of that too now). All it's properties buried and replaced for a new shinier thing. We could move on and only acknowledge the pieces that haven't been tarnished. And yet, this movie looks back at it all, and brings back the discarded ridiculed. Including the ones we never even got. Using Void to discard them and Alioth to eat them into oblivion is such a prefect metaphor you'd think it was invented for this Film. It's a prefect integration of MCU ideas for the plot of this one story.

The whole movie is practically a tribute to the early days of Marvel and superhero movies that created the momentum that MCU then built it's 30 billion empire on. This is what makes each cameo count. It isn't there just for a joke or Easter Egg moment but it ties to the theme of the story, We are revisiting the forgotten heroes, the fallen ones, the ones who never got to be. And if we are lucky the ones who still might be (please, please let us keep Daphne Keen).

It's also a reminder of how long both Jackman and Reynolds have been in this. The first X-Men movie came out 24 years ago. Reynolds was in Blade: Trinity 20 years ago. I don't think it's an accident a lot of those cameos went to the beginnings with Pyro and Electra. And even with the MCU actors reminding us they started in Fox as Evans came back as Johnny Storm. Even Jon Favreau cameo as Happy Hogan was a reminder he was once Foggy Nelson in Daredevil. This was reunion movie in more ways than one.

And the behind the scenes of those movies, the whole history of Fox Marvel films really hit you in the end. Even the failures like the last Fantastic Four. Even to the X-Men Origins: Wolverine and the Deadpool abomination there. This is what got us here. This is for all the fun we had over the years with these characters and superheroes in general. This was the start.

Of course, Deadpool wouldn't be Deadpool if they didn't desecrate and made fun of the very thing they were paying tribute too. Both the initial fight and any reference to Fox made sure of that. Reminding us that even the best parts of the past shouldn't be sacred. You should build new stories and not be afraid to change. There will be new Blade. And a new Johnny Storm. And maybe a new Deadpool and Wolverine one day too (long, long time from now apparently 😋).

And new universes give you new opportunities to meet people. Maybe even find a romance like B-15 and Peter. Or become a villain. I'm not sure how I feel about the Doom Announcement but let's see. This movie reminded us it's just one more "same face - different person" case in this multiverse.

Hey girlie,

Can you write a mini story of Jack and the reader. And can you write how she met him on the set of avengers endgame. With that, the reader is already casted in her future marvel movie(like in 2022?) and during the timespan, she was filing avatar as well, so she and Jack got closer. And in her own marvel movie premiere, she comes with jack(as her date) and everyone is crazy about and interviewers are asking questions. And with the press tours as well. And can you be specific in how they met and how they got closer.

summary: y/n and jack met on the set of avengers, and then reunite on the set of avatar. they form a close friendship and eventually fall for each other.

Y/N WAS ENERGETICALLY RUNNING AROUND THE AVENGERS SET WHEN HER BODY COLLIDED AGAINST SOMETHING. Hearing a grunt of pain, she realized it was not something, but someone. A boy around her age, with a Justin Bieber 2010 hairstyle.

“I’m so sorry!” she apologised. He stayed silent, looking at her with wide eyes. “Are you okay? Did I hurt you?”. The short boy shook his head frenetically, without emitting a word. “You are not okay or I didn’t hurt you?” she laughed.

“You are Y/N Y/L/N” the boy said breathlessly.

Y/N looked down, inspecting her body before laughing “Yeah, I think so. Are you okay?” she repeated.

“Yes! Yes, sorry. I’m just a big fan, you are amazing as Venus” the boy replied nervously.

Y/N smiled widely, her cheeks tainted a deep red “Thank you so much! What’s your name?”.

“Jack, Jack Champion. I’m doing a very small role at the beginning of the movie. It’s not much, but well, I’m excited”

“No matter how small the role is, it’s still a marvel movie. So, you should be proud of yourself. Congratulations” she gave him a genuine smile.

“Thank you, that’s very nice of you! I appreciate it”

Jack was called by the director, so they had to say goodbye. Sadly, it was his first and only day on set, so they didn’t see each other again until a week later.

It was the first day of filming the Avatar movie, and Y/N was very nervous. Unlike the rest of the young cast, she didn’t have to audition, the director already had her in mind for the role, so she didn’t get to meet anyone until that day. She was afraid of, not only not fitting in, but that they would think badly of her for not having to live the excruciating experience of the audition.

The pressure on her chest intensified when she saw the group laughing together, but she walked towards them nonetheless. They fell silent when they noticed noticed her, and Y/N felt like crying.

“Y/N!” the excited voice of a kid said, and the sight of a familiar face calmed her nerves a bit.

“Jack, hi! So nice to see you again” she smiled.

“You too!” Jack was utterly surprised that the girl had recognised him, and even more excited to have the opportunity to work with her. “Let me introduce you: this is Bailey, Trinity, Jamie and Britain. Guys, this is-”

“Are you kidding me? We know!” Bailey interrupted him. “It’s so nice to meet you! You are amazing!”.

“Your character Venus is so cool!” Britain said.

“Yeah, and you are very talented” Jamie complimented her.

Y/N blushed at the wave of flattery she had just received “Thank you very much guys!”.

“Can we ask you if you are going to be in any marvel movies after Endgame? Only if you can say it” Trinity asked her. Her voice was so sweet and adorable that Y/N couldn’t lie to her.

“Please don’t say anything, but yeah. I’m still going to be working with Marvel, can’t tell you what though, for now. But I promise you that when I’m allowed to say it you’ll be the first to know” Y/N smiled at her.

“Not fair! She gets privilege for being adorable?” Jack said, acting as if he were annoyed.

“Yup” Y/N said, and Trinity stuck his tongue out at Jack, making them all laugh.

Y/N was happy she fitted right in. She bonded with the young cast pretty quickly, and she had never been happier with her work. Excitement was all she felt every morning she woke up to go to the set, and sadness when the filming hours were over.

Jack and her were the ones with the closest friendship, as they spent most of their time with each other due to their characters having lots of screen time together. So comfortable around the other, they also started to spend their free time together. Their mothers literally couldn’t pull them apart, they appeared to be sticked together with glue.

“School is trash“ Jack groaned in frustration, resting his forehead on his math book.

Y/N laughed “Come on, don’t be dramatic. You better get use to it, because we have four more years of high school” she hit him with her pencil.

“Y/N/N! That hurt” he tried not to laugh while rubbing his head.

“Oh my god! Did you hear that thud? You really have nothing in there” she said motioning to his head.

“Oh you think you are hilarious, don’t you? You’ll pay for that” he said before tackling her to the floor of his living room and started to tickle her.

She let out a small scream “No! Stop it!” she said in between laughs.

“Say you’re sorry!”

“No!” she said stubbornly, trying to get him off her. She was taller than him, but his training clearly gave him an advantage.

“What is going on here?” Y/N and Jack’s mothers entered the living room.

“She called me dumb and I’m making her apologise” Jack answered.

“Jack please let go of Y/N/N” his mom told him.

“And Y/N, apologise to him” her mother said.

“I’m sorry I called you dumb, dumbass” she said. The thirteen-year old grabbed a small pillow from the couch and hit her with it “Here, let me help you with that task” she offered once they recovered from the laughing fit.

The two mothers looked at their kids with big smiles painted on their faces. “They’ll fall for each other eventually. I have a feeling”.

“Oh, most definitely” Y/N’s mom agreed.

“Sorry I called you dumb, I was joking” she told him before leaving his house.

“Y/N/N I know it was a joke, don’t worry. Besides, everyone knows I’m the smart one in our friendship” he teased.

“Literally no one believes that” Y/N said, rolling her eyes. “I have the looks and the brains”.

“I hate you” he pushed her shoulder lightly, making her laugh.

“I love you too. See you tomorrow” she waved goodby after kissing his cheek.

“YOU ARE TELLING ME EVERYONE HAS BEEN PEEING ON THE TANK FOR YEARS AND NO ONE TOLD ME?” Y/N asked Jack in disbelief. They were on her room, she was lying on her bed, resting on her elbow and with her head on her hand while Jack laid on a made-up mattress next to her bed.

“I thought you knew! Why are you surprised, though? It’s not like you haven’t done it”

“I haven’t”

He sat up, eyeing her expression “No way. I don’t believe you. We spend hours on that tank”.

“I swear I haven’t” she told him truthfully. He furrowed his eyes “Not because I didn’t want to. I was just being respectful, but guess no one cares about manners anymore!”.

Jack laughed “And then you say I’m the dramatic one”.

“We are both the dramatic ones” she said. “I can’t believe the film is almost over. I’m going to miss working with you”.

“Don’t get all sad on me” he said, grabbing her hand. “We are still going to see each other. You’re my best friend, you are definitely not going get rid of me”.

“You promise?”

“I promise, Y/N/N. I love you” he said.

She sat up to hug him, and also to hide the blush that tainted her cheeks. “I love you too”

He looked at his watch and smiled. “Happy 15th birthday, Y/N/N”.

“Thank you, Jack” she said, hugging him even tighter.

“My mom and I got you something” he said excitingly, standing up to look for something in his bag. “Close your eyes!” she muttered an ‘okay’. “Don’t cheat!”.

“I won’t!”

“Okay” he placed a package on her hands. “Open your eyes”. It was a thin cardboard and it had the shape of a square. “You have to open it carefully”.

When she finally unwrapped the gift, she gasped at the recognisable cover. “Holy shit, Jack! You didn’t”.

“We did!”

“How?!” she said loudly. “It’s extremely rare, and the prices are also extremely high… oh god, Jack you didn’t”.

“You are worth it” he shrugged, as if it was nothing. He had no idea how fast her heart started beating when he said that.

She stared at the 1989 vinyl in awe. It wasn’t just any vinyl, it was the pink one. Being an special RSD edition, there weren’t many left. Jack knew how obsessed she was with that record—it also was her favourite album of all time—so he didn’t hesitate to buy it, nonetheless of the price.

The vinyl was special to Y/N, not because of its rareness, but because Jack got it for her.

“Thank you so much! It’s the prettiest thing I’ve ever seen”

Her smile was so wide and her eyes so bright that Jack swore he would buy every single thing she wanted if it meant he would get to see her like that.

That was the day Jack and Y/N knew they liked the other as more than a friend.

THE AVATAR SHOOTING ENDED AND SOON ENOUGH Y/N BEGAN SHOOTING FOR MARVEL. She was excited of course, it was marvel, but even if it had been a year since she finished filming Avatar, she couldn’t help but miss the homey feeling that set gave her. Most of all she missed Jack. They talked and hung out, but they used to spend the whole day, every day, for years, together so it clearly wasn’t the same.

After doing lots of stunts, she finally had a break, so she went to her trailer. She threw herself to the couch—she was exhausted and her suit was beyond uncomfortable.

“Holy shit you are Venus!” the familiar voice invaded her ears. She looked at him in surprise, then stood up and jumped into her friend’s arms. “Hey…”

“I missed you” Y/N whispered against Jack’s chest.

It was funny. When they first met, also on a Marvel set, he had been a very short twelve year old with an awful haircut. Now, he was a very tall and muscular seventeen year old with very nice curly hair. She once used to tease him about being taller than him, now she had to raise her head to properly look at him. They had grown together, and their bond was one of a kind.

“Hey… what’s wrong?” he asked worried, noticing the hint of sadness in her voice.

“I guess I’ve been feeling a bit homesick, that’s all” Y/N answered in a low tone. She closed her eyes when her vision started to get blurry from the tears, she definitely did not want to see her cry over missing him.

“You go home every single day?” Jack said confused.

“Not my homesick for my house… for the Avatar set… for you” she whispered.

“Y/N/N…”

“I know it’s silly…” Y/N said a bit embarrassed.

“Hey, no. Look at me” Jack told her, she instantly shook her head. “Y/N, please” his heart dropped when he saw the tears in her eyes “It’s not silly. Why did you think I came here? I know exactly what you’re feeling. I miss you like crazy too. Two days a week and facetiming is not nearly enough of you for me”.

Y/N smiled softly and relaxed a bit. Between filming, finals and being homesick, she felt overwhelmed. And now, being in Jack’s arms, felt like getting the fresh air she was desperately needing. Everything was becoming too much, and if she didn’t have a contract with Marvel, she probably would have quit. Not very professional of her part, she knew it, but she felt suffocated.

They sat on the couch, Y/N’s leg over Jack’s lap and head on his shoulder, while the boy had his arm around her shoulders and rested his head against hers.

“You don’t know how much I needed this. After this movie, I’m taking a break. Only interviews for the things I filmed, nothing more” she told him.

“That’s perfect, love. That’s what you need” Jack massaged the side of her head.

“You’re making me fall asleep, I need to go in a few minutes” she laughed, looking up at him.

Their breaths hitched at the closeness. Eyes so connected they felt like they were in a trance. Y/N couldn’t believe how pretty he was, she could admire him for the rest of her life. And he was astonished by how breathtaking she was, even with puffy eyes.

“If I were to kiss you right now… would it ruin our friendship?” he asked, so low he almost couldn’t hear himself.

“Only if you don’t feel the same way that I do” Y/N whispered back.

Jack’s eyes never left hers “And what do you feel?”

“That I’ve loved you since we were fifteen”

“Then our friendship is, officially, not ruined” he smiled.

And the moment they have been waiting for two years finally came. And it was better than they have ever imagined, like their lips belonged together and now that they finally were, they couldn’t pull away. Like some magnetic force was holding them together.

THE DAY OF THE VENUS PREMIERE ARRIVED AND Y/N WAS HAPPIER THAN EVER. Ever since she and Jack got together, six months ago, everything felt better. They weren’t a private couple, but definitely not super public. They shared pictures and tiktoks with the fans, but never talked about their relationship. So, when they walked appeared together at the red carpet, everyone was thrilled. They were definitely considered one of the “it” couples, and everyone loved them.

“Have I mentioned how gorgeous you look today?” Jack whispered in her ear as they walked towards the reporters.

“Only a hundred times” she smiled at him.

“Well, my goal is a thousand, so I have a long way to go”

“I might do the same, because you look extremely handsome. Could you stay in that suit forever? Wait- you also look very cute in your hoodies and tank tops, so scratch that. Wear whatever you want, you always look handsome” she sent him a wink. She absolutely loved complimenting him, because his cheeks always turned red and she liked being the reason why they did.

“Hi Y/N, Jack” an interviewed greeted them.

“Hi!” they both answered with big smiles.

“First of all, congratulations on Venus! That’s a big deal, having a film dedicated only to your character” the blonde woman said.

“Thank you so much! And yes, it was quite a shocker when they told me about it. I was scared at first, because we’ve entered a complete different era for the MCU and people are, with good reason, very attached to the original characters and critics can be a little harsh. But I am actually very proud of this movie and I hope the fans enjoy it”

“Do you have any more projects now that the film is over?”

“No, I’m taking a break for an indefinite amount of time. I’ve been through very emotional phases and it’s best for me to stop for a little bit. Stay at home, enjoy my family and friends… so yeah”

“I hope you are feeling better. It’s very understandable, though, you have been working non-stop for years! And you are so young”

“I am feeling much much better, thank you. You aren’t getting rid of my face, though, I still have interviews to do for Venus. And Avatar is coming soon too, so yeah! I’m actually excited for that, I miss the cast so much”

“You two worked together in Avatar, right?”

“Yes!” they both answered.

“You met there?” she questioned.

Y/N looked at Jack, telling him to respond. “Actually, no. We met on the set of Avengers Endgame!”.

The blonde interviewer’s jaw dropped “Wait what?”

“Yeah! I had a small role at the beginning. If you are a big fan, you might remember me. I’m the little boy on the bicycle who stumbles upon Ant man!”

“No way! Yes! You had a Justin Bieber haircut!” the interviewer recognized him.

Y/N chuckled, and Jack turned red “It was stylish at that moment!” he exclaimed.

“No it wasn’t! That hairstyle, thankfully, died on 2010” Y/N said.

“Whatever” he rolled his eyes while smiling. “She’s always bullying me”.

“Not true! I’m a very sweet person”

“Most of the time, yes, but you do bully me a lot”

“Stop playing the victim in front of the cameras, you aren’t fooling anyone” she laughed.

The woman smiled at their dynamic “You two are so cute! How did you get together?”

“Well, we have liked each other since we were fifteen-ish, but I guess we were too scared to ruin the friendship. Six months ago, he visited me on set, and I was feeling a bit sad because I missed him too much. We both confessed, and yeah, that’s pretty much it” she explained.

“She’s truly the best person in the world, and I’m so glad she bumped into me that day on the Avengers set” he said, a dazzling smile on his face.

“And we have to say thank you to James Cameron. He’s like our wingman” she said. “Anyways, thank you for being here and sorry for having to deal with us”.

“What? Thank you! It was so fun to interview you both. You make such a good couple and the love you have for each other is very evident. Congratulations on Venus and Avatar!”

“That was really fun” Jack said once they got away from the cameras. He leaned down to place a kiss on her lips. “You look gorgeous tonight”.

Y/N laughed “And you look annoyingly handsome”.

“Isn’t that a back-handed compliment?” he asked confused.

Y/N shrugged “It may have sounded like that, but I promise I mean it as a compliment”.

“Couldn’t you just have said ‘You look handsome’?”

“Oh so you are making your own compliments now” she laughed.

Jack shook his head “You are impossible” he laughed.

“I love you, Jack” she hugged him “Thanks for being here with me tonight”

He rested his head on top of hers “Tonight and always. I love you too, love”
