rules

①Comment with your character. Feel free to intruce yourself real quick if you'd like! This meme is open to Marvel characters of all iterations, not just the MCU!
② Pick a scenario or use RNG and respond to others!
③ PLEASE MARK FOR INFINITY WAR SPOILERS. We want this to be a fun place for everyone to play without fear of being spoiled! In the same vein, feel free to let others know if you are Infinity War compliant!
④ Feel free to go completely off-script and make up whatever scenario you want. These prompts are just starting points! This meme is your oyster.
⑤ Have fuuuun!

scenarios ACTION

① Skrull Invasion → You're on planet Earth and the Skrull are coming! Are you ready to fight? Perhaps the better question is...are you really sure your friends are who you think they are?
② Sparring → There's few better ways to see what you're made of than to face off against your fellow heroes! Enter the sparring ring and give it all you've got. Or perhaps you wind up facing an old friend in the Grandmaster's Contest of Champions!
③ Chitauri Assault → Time to take down hordes and hordes of alien goons! Maybe they brought their space whales, too. They're bringing the party to you!
④ In Pursuit → Your enemies are fleeing and it's up to you to pursue them and bring them to justice!
⑤ Heist → Time to steal that invaluable vibranium shipment before the bad guys do. You'll need all your best covert stealth skills to pull this one off.
⑥ Training → Power up the Danger Room and throw yourself and a partner into a training scenario of your choice! Just try to be careful in there. It is called the Danger Room, after all!
⑦ Mind Control → Against their will, one of your comrades has begun to attack you! Will you fight back and possibly harm someone you hold dear? Or will you stand down and open yourself up to danger?
⑧ Escape → You've been captured by your enemies! Or perhaps The Collector just added you to his museum. Time to find a way out!

ANGST

① Fallout → Heroism exacts a price, and it is often personal in nature. How do you cope with the fallout of your latest conflict? Was victory worth the price you paid? Or worse, did you lose?
② Injury/Illness → Even for the strongest of heroes, the battlefield can be tough. How's that broken arm healing up? That serious road rash? Or are you the one providing healing and comfort to one in need?
③ Last Moments → Somehow has gone terribly wrong and you are dying. What will you say? What will you do? Or perhaps you are the one holding your comrade in their final moments.
④ Betrayed → One of your teammates has betrayed you. How will you respond? Will you reach out and try to forgive, or will you fight the one you used to call an ally?
⑤ Fight → Sometimes, even your closest friends can become your enemies. Disagreements can lead to verbal, and perhaps even physical altercations. Or perhaps you're seeking reconciliation afterwards?
⑥ Worst Fears → Your worst fears have manifested around you. Maybe it's an illusion, but what if it's not? How can you go on faced with losing everything you care about?
⑦ Loss → You've lost. It's over. Maybe you're the only one left. Or...maybe you're not.

CRACK

① Speed-heroing → It's like speed-dating, but with heroes and friends, at the Avengers Facility. A possible catch: you can only introduce yourself as your alter ego.
② Dance Off → Maybe the fate of the universe hangs in the balance. Maybe you're just having a good time at a party. Either way, dance off, bro!
③ Team Building → Nothing boosts team morale like an outing to laser tag or paint ball! It's important to unwind every now and again, so why not shoot your super friends with a nerf gun for a change?
④ Party Bus → Are you up for a ride on Tony Stark's most technologically advanced party bus? Hope you're prepared to party like it's 2099. Also, it flies. Eat your heart out, Miss Frizzle.
⑤ Interdimentional Mixer → You're at this party but none of the people are the versions of themselves you expect them to be! What sort of timey-wimey tomfoolery is this? Why do all these universes have numbers?
⑥ Trapped in the Drive-thru → You're trapped in the drive-thru. All you wanted was an Egg McMuffin, dammit!
⑦ Truth Serum → You're forced to tell the truth! That secret you've been bottling up for years? Yup, it's coming out.

FLUFF

① Avenger's Tower → Remember that nice tower Tony Stark was working on before it got ditched for the New Avengers Facility? Everyone has their own room designed just for them! It's like a big sleepover and all your weird friends are invited.
② Reunion → It's been awhile since you've seen some of these people. Will you give them a hug? A hearty handshake? Try not to get too misty-eyed!
③ Movie Night → Grab the popcorn and a snuggly blanket! Are you watching the latest action flick with your friend? Or perhaps something a bit spooky so you can have an excuse to cuddle with your partner?
④ Confessions → It's time to tell the object of your affections how you feel about them! Don't get cold feet now. This is the moment you've been waiting for!
⑤ Stolen Glances → Maybe it's the first time, or maybe it's been going on for awhile now. Either way, there's someone you've been making eyes at, and...did their fingertips just brush yours?
⑥ Domestic Life → Hey, sometimes even Earth's Mightiest Heroes need to cook and clean. What's the occasion?
⑦ Hobby Exchange → Teach someone about a hobby you enjoy and they can teach you about one of theirs!

GEN

① Trip to Knowhere → Get ready to gamble and drink yourself dizzy! And if that's not your cup of tea, perhaps visit the Collector's Museum, where you are sure to see all sorts of strange specimens from across the galaxy.
② Shawarma → After any great battle, a hero must have their victory feast. Who's on the shawarma bandwagon this time?
③ New York Tourism → You're in New York! Whether this is your first time or you live here, there's plenty to see. Why not hit up the Statue of Liberty? Go to a Broadway show? Take a pic with Times Square Spider-Man?
④ Beach Party → It's the Beach Episode. Put on your swim trunks, get out the volleyball, and fire up the grill!
⑤ Late Night → You're up late and wondering around HQ. Do you stop in the kitchen for some midnight baking? Take a walk outside? Reprogram the whole facility so the AI only responds to your voice?
⑥ Capture the Flag → It's a game of Capture the Flag, and powers are off-limits. You wouldn't cheat, would you? Everyone here definitely plays fair.
⑦ Denny's → It's 2 A.M. and you're at Denny's. Sure, you feel like hell, but how about that Grand Slam?

[There's something surprisingly secure about Tony's embrace. Sure, everything's gone to hell, but - well, when they haven't been pushing and prodding at each other, Tony's been one of the best people Steve knows, someone he'd trust to have his back, even now. He knows everything's irreparably fucked between them, but at least they can have this moment.

Steve blinks when Tony breaks the silence, like he's coming out of a daze. In fact, he realizes suddenly that he hasn't showered since the battle, hasn't changed out of his gear. Every seemingly routine thing has gone forgotten, abandoned by the wayside in their collective grief, in trying to figure out what happens next.]

I think I might. [He doesn't smile at the joke, but something in his eyes lightens just a little, his shoulders lose just a fraction of their tension. It's not much, but it's enough.]

[Look, Sam's not entirely happy about it either - and it doesn't help that she definitely has her doubts about SHIELD and the way they do things. Like, for example, cloning her in her absence and trying to make the clones mindless killing machines. And maybe that's why she overworks herself, because she wants to personally drag the organization back to what it was when it had been founded, because she should have been there to help guide it.

But she also knows that it puts a lot of stress on her relationship with Natasha, and after being so alone for so long, Sam just wants to have something good in her life, even if it's a little selfish. She tugs the hem of Natasha's shirt up, kisses the bare skin of her hip and lingers there for a moment.]

I know they can, darling. Where do you wanna go?

I mean, I'm pretty damn angry. [He clenches his fists and balls them up like he's about to go toe to toe with this situation and punch its lights out, regardless of how ridiculous that is.]

I've never lost a fight like this before. We killed a frickin' planet, for cryin' out loud.

[ A beat— ]

You killed a planet?

[ That sounds pretty bad, man. ]

[ erik's chuckle is a little too loud. ]

I hear those come around often.

[ While the trucker pauses at Rogue's insult and turned back to face her, there's something in Erik's chuckle that gets the trucker to look at him before turning back to Rogue. It was one thing to pick on a girl by herself; it was another take on a girl and this man too, especially as his friends hadn't yet moved to back him up. Not that the man on the counter was actively involved or anything, but someone saying something instead of just sitting there quietly was enough to mean that they might. So the trucker's eyes narrow: Watch your mouth, bitch.

Rogue's eyes narrow, but if he's leaving, she sure doesn't want to keep him around, so she swallows back her retort.

She glances from the trucker to the man on the counter and then tries to catch the waitress' eye. Ugh, she wants to get up and wash her face, but she's not sure what kind of sign that'd send...

After a little while, the waitress comes over, her tired face pinched with worry: I'll get you that new order for free if you get it to goo.

That... shouldn't have hurt like it did. ] No. No, I want to eat right here. I don't mind paying for it.

Edited 2018-05-25 02:52 (UTC)

Oh, flattery. You must really want to go.

[But it does help, Natasha unbending just a little. She goes back to stroking over the back of Sam's head, smiling a little helplessly. Hard to be mad when your girlfriend is willing to take on a spy network just for some quality time. She knows how determined Sam is to do everything she can, being able to whittle out just a piece of that is probably worth it.]

Someplace warm. I've still got the place out in San Fransisco?

Well I wasn't going to say anything.

[Actually he hasn't noticed, which probably does not say great things about his own state. And suddenly the idea of washing all of that off sounds like the best thing he's ever heard. Maybe it won't actually change anything, but it might make him feel better. Make both of them feel better.]

So maybe we both get cleaned up and then we can talk about where to go from here?

[It's quieter, maybe just a little uncharacteristically hesitant. Tony has absolutely no idea what to do now. But Steve is warm and solid and here, and for the first time since those goddamn ships appeared, he feels steady enough to actually start thinking about it. As broken as they all might be, Steve still has his back. Tony can work with that.]

We should probably-

[Steve starts to stand, definitely sways, like one of the mountain peaks surrounding Wakanda about to topple, and thinks better of the whole standing idea.]

-eat something.

[Has someone been neglecting his delicate super-soldier metabolism and not eaten an entire war rhino lately? Yes, because he's been too busy trying not to break down, and maybe too busy keeping a vigil for Tony. He blinks owlishly as the world spins and clutches the edge of the table.]

Uh.

[He doesn't feel so good.]

You mean I can't just compliment my beautiful, brilliant girlfriend without you immediately suspecting that I'm trying to manipulate you?

[Sam tilts her head and flashes Natasha a slightly lopsided grin. Flirting doesn't always come easily to her, but she's learning. Which means that her flirtation is just as ridiculous as Natasha's, but it's not like she can complain.]

Mmm, good choice. Fresh seafood and Ghirardelli chocolate. [Not that Sam's motivated by her stomach, but...yeah, she is, and San Francisco is a great town for food.]

[She lets out a hmph at that but runs her nails gently along the edge of Sam's hairline, so Natasha can't be that upset. The expression doesn't hold for long anyway before it melts in to something a lit more teasing.]

Well I was thinking more of you in swimwear, but I'll take what I can get.

[Pushing it a little? Maybe. But that's kind of what Natasha does.]

The chocolate can't hurt.

Steve?

[Tony's there in an instant, maybe a little too sharp as he catches hold and tries to pull him up the rest of the way. No, Steve is here and he's fine, this is probably just. Adrenaline crash or something. It still takes him a moment to try to slow his breathing as he fights to hold someone nearly twice his weight upright, but Tony just throws himself into it.]

You okay? Need me to get someone?

[Who? Who knows. Tony's mostly trying very, very hard not to panic.]

[Sorry, Tony, Steve is just really bad at self-care sometimes. Usually not quite this bad, but this is somewhat of an unusual situation. He regains his balance after a moment, but he's still clutching onto the edge of the table.]

Haven't eaten anything in awhile. I guess it's starting to get to me a little. [He tries for a reassuring smile and falls well short of the mark. Please just find the nearest Wakandan all you can eat buffet and start shoveling food into his mouth. Don't forget the senior citizen discount.]

I think you forgot which one of us has the more swimsuit-friendly body.

[...which, okay, Sam doesn't exactly look bad in swimwear, but Natasha has curves where Sam's six-plus feet of muscle. She's comfortable in her own skin, but- yeah, there are a lot of complex issues there.

Doesn't mean she won't indulge Natasha, though.]

If past experience holds true, I think it's gonna be me out of swimwear before I even get in the water.

[Although she's not complaining about that. Sam tips her head back and brushes her lips against Natasha's palm.]

[Tony honestly just wanted to talk to Dr. Strange, about something while visiting the Sanctum Sanctorum. Mainly he wanted to talk about his grievances about the past events. Unfortunately as he was told to sit there and wait, Tony literally had no patience for such nonsense and decided to walk around the place. Unfortunately opening a door into a literal portal was not on his expected things to find... or fall into as he made out a yell as he whirling into the alternative universe. Those were a lot of stars and planets and galaxies swirling past him, with a muffled shooting stars theme in a distance until he landed face first on the ground of this unknown area. Groaning in pain and confusion slightly. Kind of embarrassed to lift his head up just yet at his surroundings..]

[Well, by "unknown area" you mean the library of the Sanctum Sanctorum, not unlike the one you were probably in before. It happens.

Footsteps can be heard approaching in Tony's direction. And a voice...]

Tony Stark? What are you doing here?

[A voice that most certainly doesn't belong to Stephen Strange.]

Edited 2018-05-27 02:15 (UTC)

[Tony lifted his head, oh so it is. He gave out a breath as he stood shakily up.]

Bruce?

[Brushing himself off as he looked around back behind him where the portal supposedly was which vanished as he gave a breath.]

Nothing-I came here to go through one of Strange's roller coaster thrill rides into the galaxy apparently-No but what are you doing here, same thing as me? I need to clear the air with Strange on what we're doing do about our team.

Strange?

[Bruce clearly has no idea who "Strange" is, if the amount of confusion in his voice in any indication.

... also you're being awful familiar with him, nobody really calls him by his first name unless they're close friends.]

Mr Stark, can you go over all that again... and don't forget to breath, this time.

[By the way, Tony may notice that Banner's seemingly decided to take fashion tips from Dr Strange.]

Edited 2018-05-27 02:31 (UTC)

[Tony looked at Bruce weird, why was he calling him by his last name. That was really out of place. Really there was no need-And also... his clothes weren't as homely, they were more "Strange".]

You know... Dr. Strange, the guy with the cape, the attitude, controls time. The... Guy you apparently you took your clothes from.

Okay, something is off here. You're being very formal, more so than usual anyway, but...

[Something is not right.]

Dr. Strange... the neurosurgeon?

[The only Dr. Strange he's heard of, anyway.]

Something is off, so I'm gonna ask you again. How did you end up in my library?

Edited 2018-05-27 02:40 (UTC)

[Tony took a step back to look more fully at Bruce. Okay, whatever doorway Strange's had dropped Tony off in, really had a messed up timeline.]

... I went through a portal while I was looking around the Sanctum Sanctorum and... Came out here.

... Bruce... What's going on?

[Is this a prank? Is he on candid camera? Whose youtube page is this, Loki's?]

[Give him a... moment, Tony. Bruce takes off his glasses to pinch the bridge of his nose.]

Stark, hasn't anyone ever told you not to mess with forces you don't understand?

[He replaces his glasses]

I would think it's obvious. I'm the master of the New York Sanctum Sanctorum.

I was only looking around!

[Tony just stared at Bruce for a good minute. Give him a moment to process this, he's the master of the New York Sanctum Sanctorum. Which means...]

... I'm in another universe?

[Bruce gives Tony the most incredulous look, aren't you almost fifty? Wait, what's he thinking, this is Tony Stark, of course he's acting like this.]

It sure seems that way. There's an infinite number of alternate universes out there.

[Bruce walks up to one of the shelves and starts fiddling with the books, straightening them, and all that, giving himself something to do with his hands. If one were to look closely, not all the books are about the Mystic Arts. Some of the shelves are dedicated to science literature. Things like quantum physics, cellular biology, gamma radiation...]
