OH GOD NO

Shield was a pretty decent high school, for the most part, but they had a downright shitty baseball team, which was most of the reason why Steve played for the city’s East Side senior league rather than his school’s. He’d started out playing for the Avengers when he and his Ma had been living out the other side of Queens-- and had just stuck with them after moving to Brooklyn, taking buses and the subway to his games when his Ma had refused to drive him the sometimes-excessive distances. (She had tried to talk him into joining the local Brooklyn-based team instead, but he’d refused.)

In any case, that left him as the only guy in the neighborhood sporting an Avengers cap, and got him more than a few strange looks when they first moved in. Steve figured it could be worse-- at least it was just high school age ball, if he’d been wearing the wrong professional team’s hat, he very well could have gotten his ass kicked ten times over. Because hell, Steve was an alpha, yeah, strong and fit (now, anyway, he’d been shrimpy and sick when he was little), but people could get downright nasty when it came to their teams, man.

Which was partly why it was a strange mix of odd, ironic and funny that he had managed to strike up a pseudo friendship-slash-rivalry with one of the guys down the street: Bucky Barnes played on the Avengers’ rival team.

Normally, that would have made him 100% Steve’s rival, no questions asked. But Bucky was also sarcastic and funny, and always had something up his sleeve to make the day a little more interesting. Steve liked him. And he was far enough away from Queens that no one on the team needed to know that he was fraternizing with the enemy, anyway.

I would too tbh

OKAY FUCK IT I’M NOT QUITE DONE BUT IMMA POST IT FOR NOW AND EDIT IT WITH THE LAST FOUR LATER. >>;

Steve Rogers/Captain America:

A Monstrous Nightmare named “Harley.” Dark and light blue coloration, some white markings with blue eyes. Male. Harley is huge, spikey and scary looking like all Nightmares, but a total puppy dog personality wise. He even wags his tail when he’s happy and buries things he considers “his.” He’s attracted to shiny, glittery things like lightning rods, swords, seashells and Bucky’s arm. Bucky swears if Harley ever steals it and buries it he will end him. Harley is especially good friends with Freki, but generally gets along with pretty much anyone.

Tony Stark/Iron Man:

A Boneknapper named “Skeletor.” Typical white bone armor, dark skin (possibly green) underneath and green eyes. Male. Skeletor is, like most Boneknappers, very large and intimidating-looking; underneath the surface, though, he’s really timid and shy. He gets frightened by little things and doesn’t like to fight--he’s really a beta personality. Tony spends a lot of time coddling and comforting him, though he always denies that he does when people point it out. Tony (not-so-secretly) babies Skeletor, who seems to think he’s a lapdog despite his size and bulk.

Bruce Banner/The Hulk:

A Thunderclaw named “Betty.” Purple coloration with lighter purple eyes. Female. Betty is incredibly gentle and serene, and loves nothing more than to spend time with her human and cuddle up to him. If Bruce is busy, she will find somewhere nearby to settle down and snooze until he has time for her, and she is very patient, with a soothing personality. She can sense when Bruce is getting irritated or frustrated with something and will do her best to settle and calm him. Betty’s feelings on The Hulk are somewhat complicated, as she knows that he is still somehow Bruce, but has trouble reconciling the two. She has also been known to growl and threaten The Hulk if Bruce transforms and is posing a threat to someone who is undeserving. Thankfully, they haven’t come to blows--and hopefully never will.

Thor:

A Snafflefang named “Freki.” Yellow and red coloration with brown eyes. Male. Freki and Thor met when Thor set Mjolnir down and then later wandered off and Freki returned the hammer to him--only to be immediately adopted by the Asgardian. Freki is very friendly and outgoing, similar in personality to Harley and in fact, the two often play together. His major defining trait is his appetite, and he is forever begging for snacks and treats--he will pretty much eat anything--which is why Thor named him “Freki”, after one of the ravenous wolves from Norse mythology. “Freki” roughly translates to “greedy one.”

Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow:

A Smothering Smokebreath named “Karakurt” or “Kara” for short. Typical grey and black coloration with black eyes. Female. Kara is sly, coy and sneaky--not to mention fast, fleet and graceful. She can be very friendly and affectionate, but also standoffish, similar in personality to a cat. She is much too small to be a riding dragon, but Natasha doesn’t care if she has a riding dragon or not--she doesn’t view it as a necessity, and is perfectly fine having Kara as a companion. Kara and Glow are small enough that they often visit the Avengers’ tower, and Kara actually lives there on a semi-permanent basis, where she pokes her nose into everything and moves Tony’s stuff around when he’s not looking.

Clint Barton/Hawkeye:

A Deadly Nadder named “Quiver.” Teal/aquamarine coloration, purple markings and gold eyes. Male. Quiver is really excitable, but also eager to learn--which is good, because Clint has been teaching him tricks (“sit”, “fetch”, “roll over”, etc.!) Quiver is extremely friendly and loving, and will literally bowl Clint over in his enthusiasm, but Clint is (mostly) fine with that. In fact, he’s just as likely to tackle Quiver as Quiver is to tackle him. They get along really well that way. Though Clint adores him, Quiver’s energy can be a little much for the other dragons or other people sometimes. In particular, it really puts Zvezda off, and she tends to avoid him when possible.

Bucky Barnes/The Winter Soldier:

A Skrill named “Zvezda.” Silver and dark grey coloration with dark red eyes. Female. Zvezda is aloof and irritable most of the time. She’s not very social with other dragons or with people, Bucky being the exception. (She also tolerates Libby relatively well, but will fly off when she’s had enough of her.) Unfortunately for Zvezda, Harley has pretty much decided that they’re BFFs without consulting her first. Her glare usually sends other dragons running, but Harley seems immune to it. Zvezda and Bucky have a quiet, stoic sort of camaraderie.

Sam Wilson/Falcon:

A Hackatoo named “Peregrine.” Typical sandy brown coloration with reddish-brown markings and gold eyes. Male. Usually called “PJ”, short for “Peregrine Junior”--this was started by Tony in reference to Sam naming him after a type of falcon and the nickname stuck. PJ is pretty friendly and gets along well with most other dragons, but can be picky about humans other than Sam. He is genuinely and obviously amused by the fact that Sam can fly alongside him and likes to brag about it by showing it off to the other dragons, almost like his human is doing a trick. (Sam tries to make it seem like a more impressive feat than that, but with limited success.)

James Rhodes/War Machine:

A Sword Stealer named “Onyx.”

Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch:

A Changewing named “Lucien.” Typical red coloring with gold eyes. Male.

The Vision:

A Fireworm named “Glow.”

BONUS:

Pietro Maximoff/Quicksilver:

1) My B-Movie DVDs! Anything from aliens to killer pigs to sharks of various types/mutations and more! (Jaws is in there only because it’s with the set and the other 3 Jaws movies were DEFINITELY b-grade material lol.) A handful of these are foreign films, too. Did you know that Korea, Norway and France actually make some really awesome monster movies?

2) My zombie movies! @w@ I have an epic love of zombies, and probably 2/3 of these are b-grade films, but like with Jaws they’re all lumped in together, which means Black Sheep and Abraham Lincoln vs Zombies are on the same shelves as Dawn of the Dead and the Resident Evil movies. :P

3) My other monster/alien/killer animal/etc. movies that aren’t actually b-grade because they had higher budgets and a better viewer response. Things like the Alien and Predator series, Cloverfield, DOOM and whatnot.

4) My vampire and werewolf movies! Again, the same with the zombie stuff, some of these are b-grade and some are decent, but they’re all together because I have an obsession with sorting by genre/topic. >>;

Yes shut up I have almost all the Twilight movies WHY I DON’T EVEN KNOW.

Okay, but look at all these DVDs. This is probably about 1/3-ish of my entire collection. I have a fuckton of movies. And the b-movies here don’t include any that I’ve amassed on my various external hard drives or this or my other laptop, either, so there’s probably another 50 or so there. Also I’m sure a few of the actual DVDs got put back in the wrong places because there are about half a dozen that I didn’t find while pulling the rest off the shelves. Yeah I need to reorganize my movies fml.

It’s fun to note that my Dad has been collecting b-movies for literally 20 years longer than I have, too, so you can imagine how many HE has. XD;

OH ALSO nerd-of-the-world LOOK WHAT I FOUND WHILE I WAS DOING THIS:

Nerd The Second is looking good
