Oooh nice 

1. Guardians. I absolutely loved this one, moreso than the first. idk if the plot is really all that solid and together but god found family tropes!!! They get me!

2. Iron Man 2. It’s definitely on the lower end of Marvel movies I enjoy but at least I finished it

3. The Dark World. I....did not finish this movie 

May is partway through herrant about Germany when she realizes. Peter sees it dawn over her face and he sees a two-week grounding on hishorizon.  

“-Steve.”  She abruptlydemands, and ends her tirade. 

“…Yes?”

“From Brooklyn.”

Steve looks equal partsconfused and like he’s going to regret answering.  “…Yes.” 

May had a finger underSteve’s nose pointing right at him in a flash. “You’re the Steve that gave mynephew a black eye?”

“I – I’m sorry ma’am.”

“-I told you not to ma’amme.  You should know better.  I’m so-“ May fussed with her limbs beforesettling on crossing her arms and settling the severe expression on her face infor the long haul.  “I hope you know howdisappointed I am in you.” 

May had a great disappointment face.  Tony choked down a large gulp of coffee tokeep from laughing.  Peter took acareful, slow step backwards.

“I didn’t – I didn’t knowhe was so young!”

“Is that any excuse?”  

Steve was pretty sure Mayhad a future in interrogation at SHIELD.

“Especially consideringall the shield work, Steve.  You landedsome serious hits with that thing.”

“What?!”

Steve threw a glare, allfury, at Tony.  “I apologize, ma’am.  I didn’t know.  I didn’t think Tony would bring a minor intosuch a serious confrontation.”

“Oh, Tony and I will havewords.  Many of them.  Only some of them about my walnut date loaf.  We’regoing to talk about my nephew, the fact that you beat him up, and—“

“-Hey, he didn’t –I wasdoing fine, he –I –I mean—“

“Peter.  Your room. Now. We’ll talk about your grounding later.”

Peter turned and, headhanging, shuffled off to his room.

Satisfied, May turned backto Steve.  “Now you,” she pointed to thekitchen table, “sit.” 

“You’re terrifying.”  Tony was smiling wide.  

“You’re next.  Sit down, Mr. Stark.”

“This must have been whatPeter meant about you freaking out.  He’snot wrong.  Damn.”  Tony sat himself in the chair next to Steveand fiddled with his coffee cup while Steve began his apology, explanation, andattempted redemption.   

Valentine’s Day doesn’t really exist in the Stark kingdom. Tony is perplexed when one day Steve and Bucky both present him with flowers and sweets. “It’s not my birthday.”“No, it’s Valentine’s Day,” Steve replies, frowning in confusion.Tony stares at the plate of sweets he’s holding before looking up at him and asking, “What’s Valentine’s Day?”Steve and Bucky have no idea how to explain they’re celebrating a day where a saint was murdered for marrying people that a lot of higher-up people thought shouldn’t be marrying so they just say, “Just a day to celebrate love.”“Oh,” Tony says, smiling shyly. “That’s very sweet.”

The Rogers have no idea what the fuck Halloween is. Tony asks what kind of treats they put out for their subjects and the spirits and Sarah actually blurts out, “Food for the what?”Tony hunches his shoulders because oh no, it sounds like he’s done something wrong. “The. The food for the people and the spirits. On All Hallows’ Eve?”They’ve heard of All Hallows’ Eve, but in a very vague way, like, ‘oh yeah the Stark kingdom has a weird holiday at the end of harvest.’ It had never occurred to Tony that the Rogers didn’t also participate in it.“But how do you hide from spirits when they’re here among the living?” he asks anxiously.“We… pray?” Steve answers slowly.Tony is horrified and spends All Hallows’ Eve locked in his room waiting for something bad to happen. Nothing does but he chalks it up to the plate of cookies he leaves outside his door. They’ve been nibbled on, after all. (“Did. Did you take a bite out of every cookie?” Bucky asks awkwardly.“…Mo,” Steve answers after a moment, and sprays crumbs all over him. “I fidn’t.” He totally did.)

Yule is a holiday they share but they have very different traditions.

“Why… why do you have poisonous plants hanging up everywhere?” Tony asks nervously.Steve and Bucky look at each other before looking up at the sprigs of mistletoe hung in the doorways. “We… kiss under them?”Tony turns to stare at them in disbelief. “What?”“It’s good luck for romance,” Bucky explains. “You kiss under the mistletoe and then you pluck off one of the berries.”“…I don’t see how kissing under a poisonous plant promotes good luck,” Tony says after some thought.Steve and Bucky do that thing where they talk with their eyebrows before Bucky leans in and says, “We could show you how.” Tony blinks in confusion and then blushes brightly with a squeak at the implication.

Tony asks the cooks about a cookie his people make specifically during the season. He tries to describe it: brown, spicy, soft. He can’t really offer more than that, because the cooks always made it. He’d only been allowed to lick the bowl. He thinks there might have been an egg in it.The cooks titter about the egg comment and then start asking around and finally find a refugee servant from the Stark kingdom who knows how to make them. The cookies were made with molasses and ginger.Tony stuffs three in his mouth and has one in each hand before the Rogers can even take their first bites. (They like the cookies a lot though. They go well with their tea and mulled wine during these cold winter months.)

Steve and Bucky are excited about the holiday oranges they’ll get in their stockings. Tony gets the stockings because they did it too, but having grown up in a country with a multitude of fruit, has no idea why oranges are so special.Steve explains that well, until the summer when they can be brought in by visiting merchants, Christmas is the only other time they can get oranges. The noise Tony makes in response is horrified and hilarious and Sarah will never forget it. (Tony is still very pleased when he also finds an orange in his stocking. Sarah smiles into her cup of tea as the boys peel their oranges.)

Not really. He might if he’d ever gotten the time to properly mourn, but he presented as an omega almost immediately after Obadiah took over the kingdom and ten years of surviving hell started. Mostly his parents’ deaths just sit in his chest, a constant but gentle ache that has gotten better with time but will never truly go away. He gets depressed around the time of year that his parents were murdered, but luckily Steve and Bucky understand and will take turns cuddling with him so he’s not so alone. Tony finds this helps immensely.

He doesn’t really want to do anything on the day they died. He can’t imagine celebrating lives cut short so violently, and he also can’t bring himself to really do more than to acknowledge silently that it’s the day when his life spiraled out of his control.

Thank you!!! Your comments are highly appreciated! As I make them I often think how am I supposed to make THIS hilarity even funnier lol, but I guess its working!
