I have no place in the world

I, too, would save the little hamster guinea pig

they’re so sibling coded, more than her and bob imo

lol then lena giving him a compliment with “except walker actually knows what he’s doing” even though in the vault she fought him on being in charge until he had his i told you so moment

oh and the parallel of john having lost lemar and yelena losing natasha i’m sick

I would maybe exclude Bucky from this concept because I think that his relationship with Sam is one of the most important aspects of his character, and because so much of his arc was about healing and opening up to people again.

BUT FOR THE REST OF THEM, I want to be a bunch of traumatised cats who can’t be adopted separately. I want them to be a group of unhinged delinquents going through group therapy together and holding onto each other like their lives depend on it. I want them to be constantly worried about each other. I want them to bicker all the time but lose their shit when one of them is in danger. I want them to commit a lot of morally questionable acts for each other’s sake, even though they’re supposed to be heroes now.

Thunderbolts, assembled. 💪🏻✨

Walnut was born in a species-recovery breeding program in the 1980′s.  The program had crane chicks hand-raised by human volunteers, and at that time they did not fully understand the measures necessary make sure that the chicks do not imprint on humans and retain their identity as cranes.  

As a result, her keepers believe, Walnut does not recognize other cranes as members of her own species.  

It has not been proven that Walnut killed her previous suitors; however, there is a persistent rumor in the white-naped-crane-conservation community that she did.  

Because this species is highly endangered, and the gene pool of the captive population is small, it’s pretty important for the survival of her species that Walnut A) mate, and B) not kill a bunch of other cranes.  

The actual name of the keeper is Chris Crowe.

They both arrived at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute in 2004.   

Walnut immediately began paying special attention to Chris--and ignoring the eligible male crane in a nearby enclosure.  

Walnut initiated their courtship, performing the opening moves of a mating dance.  

Chris realized that if he reciprocated the mating dance, it might be possible to artificially inseminate Walnut with her participation and consent.  (The process normally involves restraining the bird.)  

It worked!  

Chris and Walnut have had five children, who were raised by other crane couples at the facility--sometimes the biological dad and his mate--both because it’s unclear whether Walnut would accept the chicks as her own, and because Chris is not equipped to be a Crane Dad.  

However, the Institute provides her with artificial eggs to sit on, and Chris takes his turn looking after them.  (This would not work with real eggs because he can’t sit on them properly, but Walnut seems to feel that he is on the job if he just stands over them.)

she has not been PROVEN to have killed her exes, but there is a PERSISTENT RUMOR (really officers she's simply DEVASTATED, she sobs, wearing a new feather boa unfortunately resembling her most recent deceased husband)

His name is Chris CROWE. (Mrs. Walnut Crane-Crowe?)

the mental images of a whole human man learning and performing the crane mating dance, and "sitting" on artificial eggs so she thinks he's performing his duties as a husband and father (and apparently OBJECTS if he does not?)

"chris, buddy, you gotta marry the possibly-murderous crane lady for the GOOD OF THE SPECIES." (alternately: "chris, my man! good news! we found you a very interested lady! She's 36, she's very spirited and independent, she holds a very important and rare status in her society! ...Is there a downside? WELL...")

The Hawkeye and Widow duo will always be on top. First: Clint Barton and Natasha Romanoff

It starts with the others making fun of Bucky for using outdated slang from the 1930s. He doesn’t care to break the habit or learn the modern slang, but he decides he has to get back at them somehow. So he starts making things up. At first, they’re close enough that only he can tell they’re fake, but then he starts pushing to see how weird he can get before they realize he’s fucking with them.

Once she figures it out, Yelena follows suit by mixing made up Russian phrases with her real ones. Alexei soon joins her (after she had to explain what she was doing multiple times so he wouldn’t ruin the joke), then Bob and John start throwing out fake Southern phrases left and right. And Ava gets to join in twofold, because she adds in fake and real phrase from both England and Argentina.
