"Why can't you see you matter?"
(Clint walks along the hall, heading to a specific room, though his mind lost.)
Clint: *internally* How bad is it that Tony is hiding from us? What could knock him down that far, to push us away? I just want my friend back, man. I miss my buddy.
(Tony had been distant as of lately. Something had happened when he went to a meeting with some officials to discuss important business and affairs. He came back guarded, cautious, and overall just blocked up emotionally. He didn't say anything about the meeting with the officials, nor did he talk about what was wrong. It bothered everyone. It especially bothered Clint.)
Clint: *Stands in front of Tony's bedroom* Tony? Are you okay, I'm worried man...
(It was silent)
Clint: *Hesitant* ...Tony?
(It was silent)
Clint: *Knocks on the door* Tony, are you even in there?
(It was silent)
(Clint on his last nerve, ready to ask JARVIS where Tony is, tries the door handle. It was unlocked.)
Clint: *Surprised* ...huh. Well that's convenient.
(Walking inside Tony's room it was clear that he was in here, tablets with different projects were strewn about the place, Clint could also here something creaking. Following the noise had Clint find Tony in bed. He looked tired, in more ways than one.)
Clint: *Gently sits down* Tony... are you okay? You've been down since you came back and everyone is a mess about it. I am even worried. I want to make stuff with you again, have are banter and sarcasm back. I...
(Clint wanted Tony back. He wanted him happy again, full of life, creating and pushing technology to new limits. Clint wanted Tony to be okay. He wanted him back beside him again, not away and cold to him.)
Tony: *glances at Clint* ...I'm fine. Just having a rough patch, I'll be up and at again soon enough.
(Clint knew it was a lie.)
Clint: *Firmly* Tony, what is really the matter? Since you came back, something has been on your mind and eating away at you for the last few days. You are clearly not fine.
(Tony didn't say anything for a few moments. He looked as if he was thinking about his next few words or possibly about what he wanted to say about the problem.)
Tony: *Quietly* I... I was reminded of a bad time. During- He... I..
(Tony was struggling on his next words, but Clint was patient. He held Tony's hand unconsciously and gave a gentle squeeze.)
Tony: *little whine* I had been talking with a guy from the military, a sergeant I think? H-he, I was talking about something- maybe the issues they had containing some of the villains? The guy kinda started arguing with me... It ended with words that brought up bad memories, and stuff people used to tell me that I tried to forget about.
(Clint was calm for Tony the entire time. Inside he was burning, rabid with the need to seek justice for Tony. To hurt the man who hurt his precious treasure, his teams leader. Clint wanted to leave a statement to all who dare try again.)
Clint: *Calmly* Is that why you decided to hide away?
Tony: *Nods*
Clint: *sighs* Welp, that won't do Tony. You need space, I get it, but this is beyond healthy at this point. We are going to get some fresh air in the common room. Up we go!
(Clint picks up Tony bridal style, earning him a squeak from Tony.)
Tony: *embarrassed* I can walk, Clint!
Clint: *flirty* Yeah, but this way I can carry a beautiful and smart genius! Can't have you exsert yourself after the rough day you had. Let your loyal archer carry you! *Winks*
(Tony is blushing bright red by the time they reach the common room. Everyone is there and clearly waiting for the both of them. JARVIS must have call them all.)
Thor: *Happy and relieved* Tony! It is nice to see you out and about again.
Steve: *Concerned* It is nice to see you again, but are you alright?
Hulk: *grunts and walks over to pat Tony's head* Metal man no longer hiding away. Good.
Natasha: *smiles softly but remain quiet*
(Clint sits himself down on the couch, Tony being held hostage in his lap. No amount of squirming would get Clint to let go of him. Tony gave up after twenty seconds, accepting his fate and tucking his head into Clint's shoulder.)
Clint: *Content* Tony allowed me to bring his gorgeous butt out of his room, though it's up to Tony if he wants to tell you anything.
Tony: *Flustered* You can tell them Clint. Also I'm not all that...
Clint: Yes you are Tony, your personality and perfect adorable looks are why I fell in love with you.
(Clint froze at that, wishing his brain had a filter or at least common sense to think first before blurting things out. Tony blue screened at the confession. Clint quickly changed the subject to explain what had caused Tony to push away from them, growing angry again at the knowledge again. The team also looked furious. Natasha left the room. That sergeant most likely won't be the one okay soon enough. The others that remained gave Tony the comfort he clearly needed.)
(When Tony and Clint were left alone, the others leaving to grab snacks for movie time, Tony decided to ask the question he was desperate for an answer to.)
Tony: *whispering* Did you mean it?
Clint: *Hesitant and scared* Yeah, yeah I did mean it Tony. Everything about you is why I really like you. You matter to us, Tony. You matter so much to me...
(Without giving himself a chance to back out, Clint grabbed Tony's chin and made him look at him. Clint placed a soft kiss on Tony's lips. Pulling back Clint saw Tony looking at him in surprise, blushing different shades of red. Then Tony pressed a kiss to his cheek.)
Tony: I like you too. I didn't think anyone would like me like that, but I'm glad it's you.
Clint: *snorted* Well it isn't just me who loves you that way.
Tony: *jerks up* Wait what!?
Clint: N-Nothing!
If you make this into a proper fanfiction, please link me your work so that I may read the glorious content!!! π

What's your thoughts on owls? Just, like, the species as a whole.
Owls are amazing!!!! They are so pretty, look like they are full of magic, and some of the superstitious about them from some cultures are very interesting.
So I rate them a 10/10! I sadly don't get to see them in my area though :/
I haven't been on Tumblr often enough due to life problems, but now that I am back let's celebrate our pride!!!!

(β βΏβ ^β βΏβ ^β ) Marvel Prompt (β ββ α΄β ββ βΏβ )
(Clint is walking to Tony's lab to see if he can help fix an issue with his bow, as he can't figure out why it is not retracting like it should be.)
Clint: *Walking into the lab* Hey, Tony, would you mind...
(Clint's eyes widen why he sees Tony, whom is wearing earbuds and hadn't heard him, as he is wearing a cat hoodie. A purple cat hoodie, that includes a tail.)
Clint: *Jaw dropped* Oh my god... Tony?!
Tony: *Startled by the shout* C-Clint!? When did you get here!
(Clint doesn't answer the question, he instead walks over to circle Tony. Taking in ever detail. Then he tugs on the tail of the hoodie.)
Clint: *Disbelief* Are you wearing a cat hoodie... That actually has a tail!?
Tony: *Blushes* Y-YEAH *Snatches the tail back* What of it?!
(Clint is blushing bright red now, having seen all of Tony in his adorableness. He can't completely process that the man in front of him is actually wearing a cat hoodie. That's purple. )
Clint: *Standing straighter* That's it.
Tony: *Confused and a little scared* ...what?
(Clint is standing in front of Tony in mere seconds, grabbing him and tossing him over his shoulder. Securing the precious cargo, Clint makes his way out of the lab. His destination: his room.)
Clint: *Dead serious* Nobody can see you in that cute hoodie but me, Tony. I declare that a new rule in this tower.
Tony: *indignant* This is my tower! Put me down, Clint! Do you even-
(Tony yelped as Clint spanked him. He didn't let Tony down till he was fully in his room, the door locked behind him. Clint set Tony down, then held him close to his chest. Clint nuzzled his head against Tony's.)
Clint: *Happy and content* Who's a good kitty~
Tony: *Blushing and... Excited* C-Clint! What the hell?!
(Tony tried to pull away, though he didn't really try. He had no idea what was going on or what he even wanted to do in this situation.)
Clint: *Pouting* Aww, Tony, nooo. Don't leave! I just want cuddles... Please?
(Tony hesitated, hearing the small plea in Clint's voice. He wanted Tony to stay. To cuddle him, for whatever reason. With a sign, Tony relented.)
Clint: Yay! *Hugs Tony closer*
Tony: Are you really doing all of this cause I'm in a cat hoodie?
Clint: *Pausing* Tony... you're in a purple cat hoodie, purple. That's my color, my favorite color. You wearing that makes you adorable, but the color is my color. I wear lots of purple. Seeing you wear it...
Tony: *Realization* I- You saw me wearing purple of all things... and you felt possessive cause I'm essentially marked with your color? And because I'm cute?
(Clint couldn't deny it, he saw the hoodie as a claim mark. Something about Tony wearing something so cute and bizarrely random, and in his favorite color, had Clint riled up. Just filled with the need to hide Tony away and wrap him up in blankets. To shower him in so much love, affection, and plenty of attention.)
Clint: *mumbles*
Tony: Uh?
Clint: *louder* I like you. Really like you.
Tony: ...
Tony: *Blushes furiously* Clint... I- I, uh... I didn't think you liked me at all.
Clint: *Blinks* What?
Tony: We rarely hang out together, at least not like how we spend time with the others. We don't really do anything together... Like I wanted to.
Clint: Tony, why did you think I often worked in your lab besides you when I could? Why I'd come to you when I needed to fix any of my gear? I wanted to be near you, Tony. Why...
(Something clicked in the Archer's mind right then.)
Clint: *Slowly* Tony... What do you mean 'like I wanted to?'
Tony: *Silent*
Tony: I like you too, Clint. I'm not good with feelings, so...
(Clint locked eyes with Tony. Then he planted a firm kiss on Tony's mouth, earning him a squeak. Clint was filled with joy and eagerness. He wasn't about to let Tony go, not when he knows now how Tony feels.)
Clint: *Breaks the kiss* My kitten. All mine. *Cups Tony's cheek*
Tony: *exasperated and emotionally drained* Yes Clint, I'm yours. You are also mine too.
Clint: *Happy noises* I know kitten, I know. All yours too.

Literally parody of Lumity sence on repeat in my head. Please someone write a fanfic of this, my brain needs fanfics!!!!
This post is gonna get serious. I wanna talk about Tony's death in the MCU and how I was affect by it and my past.
Trigger warning: I'm gonna be talking about PTSD, death, depression, and overall a lot of heavy stuff. If this stuff bothers you, you should skip this post. I have plenty other posts that are more for humor or fanfiction.
Tony's death.
This rocked me to my core. I cried when he spoke his last words and how he ended his arc the way he did. I cried cause the character who brought me into the MCU had left it after all this time. I had cried for the character who had become so important to me, only to cry all over again when Steve decided to leave too. Both goodbyes that were from important parts of my Marvel experience were gone like that.
It was a perfect, tragic, ending for both characters. The pain and loss, to the end of their arcs showing how much they changed.
The thing is though, seeing Tony's death, and Steve's choice to leave, had me mentally and emotionally shut down the first time I watched those scenes. I had been lost unconsciously to the past, back to the moment that still haunts me today.
I have PTSD. And my trauma came from my grandfather passing away when I was four. It was traumatic, loud, messy, and lots of crying from my mother. The only person I had to call 'dad' was simply gone in mere seconds.
He past away in my mother's arms, and from the way my mom can remember he was also coughing blood. His lung cancer finally caught up to him.
When children are exposed to stimulation it is already so much for them, every experience being many things: an inconvenience being the end of the world, a new little fact being a huge joy, every experience is learning how the world is. But in terms of trauma? It's greater damage to the mind as a kid compared to an adult.
I had watched my grandfather pass away, got stuck in the loud chaos, and had been unable to process what just happened. I only knew that he wasn't coming back, and that answer only left me empty.
After this moment things changed a lot for me. It was made worst when my mother had to hospitalized for three days sometime after this event. This was another thing that had sent me into a deep form of hurt. I cried hard at my mother's disappearance. I thought I was being abandoned, left alone in a world I still can't understand today.
I had lost a parental figure in my life, thought I was being abandoned sometime later, and was unable to process anything. I only knew the facts, I couldn't do anything beyond that. Any emotions I should have been feeling wasn't there. I didn't feel anything. It was like I didn't know how anymore, I only could feel apathetic. Like I was shunning away the moment.
It was the start of my mental decline.
Tony became an important character for me as he was the hero who felt real, one I could find myself in the same sort of spot with regarding pain.
Every time I see a character I've grown so attached to die, I remember the first time it ever happened. Then I dissociate to cope with the trauma, emotions disappearing into numbness, and I can't watch anymore.
The pain of watching real tragic deaths or of fiction that I've come so attached to, it sends me into a twisted mess. It also happens with goodbyes. Seeing someone or something for the last time, never seeing them again, also sends me back. The feelings of loss and abandonment causing me to push things or people away.
When Tony died on screen I had been left numb, I had left the theater wanting nothing more than to curled up in a ball on my bed and sleep. Forgetting about the moment I watched him die.
I wouldn't get to fully process my trauma till this year. I wouldn't get to the moment of processing till now.
Tony's death, Steve leaving, and the pain left behind was too much for me to handle. Now though I can say that it was tragic but also a beautiful end to their respective arcs. I can't watch certain parts of the movies again for reasons, but I'm able to watch the movies again as I'm now moving forward. I can watch knowing that this time I can finally watch the series and accept each goodbye that happens. I can allow myself to process the emotions I feel freely, letting them come and simply be.
I write this post as a form of my own little therapy. A way of sharing my story to those who might need it and those who need to hear this:
You are not alone in your grief. You are not alone in your pain. Pain comes to everyone and it varies on the person how they respond to that pain. Depression, anxiety, PTSD, these are common disabilities that are found in a large percentage of people. I used to think nobody would understand, but overtime I realized that pain is universal.
When I began to heal I learned that it's okay to be vulnerable, to be weak. To allow yourself the chance to express the emotions held inside out. Feeling those emotions freely is what helped me move forward, but it may be different for you.
What Marvel has helped me to do is learn that it's okay to be human. We are a mess, but we learn together how to be better. Not everyone is nice, not everyone is mean. We are simply people. As we heal from trauma we see those around us differently, unable to go back to the mindset in the past. We can also see those who have similar mindsets to are own.
In conclusion: Tony's death hurt me and pushed hard at an old scar. The pain came and I allowed it to be. I learned to move forward, and learned from Marvel that all you can do is move forward. Tony's death had left the universe safe, Steve leaves behind a legacy and passed down his shield to Falcon. And I learn to come to terms of what happened years ago now.
I wanted to share this in hopes of those who need it see it. And I hope maybe that you, the person reading, have taken something from this post. A person who understands or possibly a new perspective on something.
I hope that you remember that you deserve to be loved, that you are not alone in pain or grief, and that you are amazing.

Prompt: Loki has become an avenger, but now is struggling to fit in and belong in the team. Loki has difficulty with his emotions and social interactions, from lack of proper friendships and social connection and from never learning how to handle his emotions in the first place- at least not properly anyway...
Loki is dealing with undiagnosed ADHD and has severe social anxiety as well, along with a lot of trauma to add to the pot.
Thor, being the big brother, finds help for his brother as he can't help Loki by himself. Thor recognized he doesn't have the tools or knowledge needed to help Loki. Tony and Clint potentially do, both having similar issues with Loki, but not to his degree or exact symptoms. Thor believes that Tony and Clint can help Loki fit in because they know what it's like to struggle mentally and emotionally.
{And the three help Loki get properly diagnosed by professionals for his ADHD, of course.}
Loki gets a bit better, feeling more like he belongs. That he isn't broken or defective. Loki feels like a true person for the first time in years.
