Thor: sleeps deep and sleeps well, finds it hard to sleep on the quinjet but will crash on the couch/floor/wherever at the tower
Clint: sleeps lightly but anywhere. Will often be found napping in weird places
Steve: looks unnervingly like a corpse. Doesn’t move/talk at all, finds sleep an annoying necessity
Nat: sleeps curled up, like a cat. The boys swear she sleeps with one eye open. She declines to comment
Bruce: is often so exhausted that he sleeps anywhere and doesn’t care at all. People draw on him and he doesn’t ben wake up.
Tony: has to be sedated by Steve if he’s ever going to sleep. Either that or he passes out on the floor at 3am after working on a project and Clint finds him in the morning on his quest for coffee. Steve has to drag him to bed.
Wanda: take up as little space as possible, has nightmares almost every night and wakes up screaming to find Clint or Nat holding her hand to help her calm down
The Vision: like father, like son. Doesn’t sleep. Helps Tony in the lab or goes and observes humanity
Pietro: sleeps forever because he’s dead
so when stan lee first sent the spiderman comic with gwen’s death in it to the publishers, they told him that he HAD to change it because it wasn’t appropriate or audiences would be too upset or something
and because stan lee is a little shit, he not only published the death, he made it worse than originally intended, AND made it a marvel rule that gwen stacy dies and can never come back. gwen stacy is literally the only marvel character that–according to the great ruler stan lee–may never come back to life
Steve’s out on his morning run, when he suddenly hears a voice yell out “ On your left!”
A blue haze speeds by.
Nathaniel Pietro Barton, you were named for two people I’ve once attempted to kill but ended up saving my ass. One of whom I’ve never seen coming, and he was the bravest man I ever knew.
