#abbyverse

My mom took me to the bunny once and I tried to take the head of the costume by the whiskers . Then I cried. I was 3 and mom tells it now she wasn’t gonna traumatize me for a picture so we never went back. So I was just curious.

Awwww. 😞 You know what? Believing there is a human size rabbit is a bit of a stretch.

You got Abby all dressed up in her new Easter dress for pictures with the Easter Bunny at the mall. She stands next to you in the queue, making the skirt of her dress swish. "Mama, this dwess make me feel so princess."

You smile down at her and Bucky chimes in, "It's because you're our princess." Abby blushes and hides her face in her hands and giggles.

As Abby gets closer to the front of the queue, she starts to frown. "Mama? He not the Easter Bunny."

"Of course he's the Easter Bunny! Every one has come out to see him."

"No, Mama. I don't fink so." She starts to glare at the Easter Bunny.

Once it's Abby's turn, the assistant walks her up to the Easter Bunny and places her on his lap. She's still glaring up at the Easter Bunny. The photographer is trying to get her to smile and look towards the camera. "Sweetheart? Can you give us a big smile?"

Abby reaches up to touch the Easter Bunny's face and discovers it's a costume. It's hard. She gasps and lets out a scream. "He not weal!! He try to tricks me! Papa! Papa!" The stunned worker tries to keep Abby on his lap so she doesn't hurt herself, but Abby fights him, punching him in the face and wherever she can reach. "Papa helps!!" Bucky jumps over the divider ropes to get to Abby. Scooping her up in his arms. "Him's not a wabbit! Him's not weal?! It all fake! He try to be tricksy!!" Abby buries her face in Bucky's neck and cries.

"Shhhh. I got you, Abby Baby. Papa's here." He rubs little circles on her back, trying to calm her.

You're left to apologize to the workers. Paying for the photos they did take and leaving them with a fat tip.

You catch up to Bucky and Abby outside. She's still clinging to Bucky in a death grip. "Abigail? Are you ok? Do you want to talk about it?" You drop kisses on her.

"I was scared he was part of the bad people. Him was going to take me and all the kids."

"Oh sweet girl, I'm sorry that scared you. Bucky and I would never ever let that happen. I didn't want to tell you but the Easter Bunny is pretend. He's not like Santa who is a real person. Mommies and Daddies made him up to make their children happy with baskets of toys and candies and coloring of the eggs."

"Yea, Santa is real peoples." She sits up in Bucky's lap. "That means you lied to me." You give Bucky a panicked look.

"It...it wasn't...no, it wasn't a lie. We just didn't know you thought he was a real bunny." Bucky huffs out a nervous laugh, "I've never seen a people sized rabbit who could talk, right? Animals can't talk."

"Maybe we should have been more clear." Abby is silent taking all this new information in.

"It was a rough day, I think we need some ice cream." Bucky, knowing how to distract his toddler. "Who wants ice cream?"

Abby raises her hand all excited, "I want Starbury!"

"Have you ever had a banana split? I think I'm getting that. You can try some. Mama? You up for some ice cream?"

Abby always loves to have you do her nails. Your collection of nail polish is extensive. Every color of the rainbow is represented in that basket...and then some. You like to do her nails first so she can't offer to paint your nails. "Your turn Mama. Let me do's it!"

"Oh no, baby! You'll ruin your pretty nails. You don't want that to happen, do you? Mama worked so hard on them "

Abby dramatically gasps and shakes her head, pig tails flailing about her head, "No! I wuv dem so much! I want to keep dem pwetty."

"I thought so, but that was very sweet of you to offer " You kiss her cheek as she sits back on the couch & watches Finding Nemo. You dodged a bullet there, smiling as you start your own manicure.

**********"""

Abby runs into the common area and announces to everyone, "Guess what! Samuel, where going??" She sees him slip out the door making his escape .

Dr. Banner laughs, "What's going on, Abby?"

Abby holds up a little basket, "I gets new nail polish! Who wants me to do dere fingernails?" The men are silent. "Or I can do's your toes, too. I can does dem both." The corners of Abby Rose's mouth turns downward wondering why no one is as excited as she is about this. "My colors are so pwetty," her little shoulders shrug looking so dejected.

"Sure, Abs, c'mere."

Abby slowly waddles over to Steve, "You weally wants to? You no has to, ya know." She looks up into his clear blue eyes, worried he doesn't really want to play with her.

"Are you kidding? I was just giving these guys a chance to go first." A small smile creeps across his niece's face. "What color do you have for me?"

Abby giggles, placing her basket on the floor & squats down to rummage through the colors. She pulls out a navy blue, "I fink dis one is THE BESTEST for you, Uncle Steve."

Dr. Banner crouches down next to her, pulling out a bottle. "How about this one for me?"

Abby gasps dramatically, " Dr Banner that is so good! You picks the good color! GWEEN! It my favowite! I wuv it so much. Hulk will wike it, too!! Oh my goshness!" Abby squeals with joy.

Sam is used to boys. He's the best uncle to AJ and Cass. He'll play and tussle with them.He loves to take them camping and fishing. That's Sam's comfort zone and the boys think he's the greatest!💕

Abby will cry if a fish is caught because she knows they are going to kill it for supper. We already know how she feels about camping. She can't be with the bugs and have her butts out. Sam and Abby doesn't have much in common.

However, where Sam shines with Abby, is that he's a protector. He has no problem popping off to a kid who's mean to her at school. 😂 (Did you see that interview he did and the kid didn't have a Falcon action figure? 🤣) If anyone put Abby in danger or physically hurt her, Sam will go after them in a heartbeat.

Abby verse is amazing!!!

Abby has a cold, so you kept her home from daycare. Instead, you bring her to your office so she can stay with you. She was fussy and didn't even want Bucky to watch her. She only wanted you.

For lunch you carried her down to the cafeteria for some chicken noodle soup which was the soup of the day. The sweet kitchen manager heard Abby was at the Tower feeling under the weather, so chicken noodle it is!

On the way back to your office, Abby's hand in yours, she's ready for another nap when a booming voice is heard, "Ay! Micro Mini!"

Hi! No, she didn't? What's a May Day basket? I've never heard of one. 🙁 I'll need to do my research.

Oh my goodness! Oh my goodness!

Is that like a super sweet relationship? I see him answering all the you knows what’s and questions she has. Maybe a science kit or two together. Like those little dog kits or maybe kinetic sand of some kind

Bruce has so much patience with Abby. You bought her one of those dinosaur excavation kits. All the bones are hidden in a big sand block and once she got all the bones out, Bruce, Peter or Tony helped her put it together.

You needed to get her something to work on because she would be pesky and interrupt their work. Go around touching things even if she promised not to. And she wasn't going to leave because her Bwaddah Peter was there. You tried to keep her busy on her own. It doesn't stop her talking though. She has a running commentary while she's there.

Is Abby going to "help" her Uncle Steve propose to Ms. Grace? I'm sure she'd likely demand to be a flower girl, or a flower girl gang with the rest of the Gumdrops. I just love this whole FC world so much.

Hahaha!

I don't know if she could help her Uncle Steve. Abby is horrible at keeping secrets. C'mon, her go-to phrase is "You know what's?" She'll spill a secret so fast. No matter how hard she tries to reassure you she wouldn't. 😂

She will definitely get position as flower girl! After all, it's because of her that Uncle Steve and Ms Grace are together. She was Steve's best hype girl! Extolling on all his best features and virtues. His muscles were a big sell. His arms and his tummy. Him's cute in the face. Smart in his brains.
