I’m here for it

plentyofwords:

Oh?

jellybabyoftheneutronflo...: Gwen is clearly Jovie. Like I’m SCARED by how well some of these fit. Pepper is Emily. Morgan is Michael. Ned is obviously the secretary.

Oh my god she is holy shit I know we have like an infinite number of verses but like

I want this

gimmie

captain_flyboy:

yes please

Gwen: who is this high energy guy and why is he following me everywhere?
Peter:

I’m gonna make an open post for this utter nonsense

plentyofwords: captain_flyboy: jellybabyoftheneutronflo...: a_mused | Holiday Memes.

I KILLED UNCLE BEN. I DIDNT NEED TO BUT THERE HE IS DEAD AGAIN

who would you like Steve, Nat or Pepper?

peppppppppeeeeer

>.>

<.<

Question. For this Au. Should I make it so Gwens dad isn’t dead and head of security at stark tower orrrrr

Should she legit genetically be Steve’s kid and she works in the coffee shop at stark tower

Either way she’s a barista at Starkbucks

She introduces peter to coffee. Everyone immediately decides this was the worst idea ever

Y u p

He falls asleep at her dorm from the crash and she can’t wake him up

we also 100% need a pepper for something real!verse

I can do pepper for a psl

yay!

plentyofwords: goood. coincidentally. pepper should probably save peter from happy cause wow happy is being super intimidating right now and peter does NOT know why.

she can do that

liking this for when I get my shit together.

samame: fyi i will play this with you well past christmas so noooo pressure

plentyofwords:

captain_flyboy: now come play here. let tony get a major tension headache because this peter is so damn chipper and happy to help and just BE THERE WITH HIS DAD 8D

samame how do you feel about this being the verse where Gwen actually is Steve’s kid? I mean I’m for it but I also may or may not have said gwens mom died a couple years ago and Christmas was her favorite holiday so Gwen has a hard time around that particular holiday.

Aww. I'm all for it

YES GOOD

and Gwen = Only Child y?

Here's some vague backstory in a tag Your baby girl attends juilliard, steve. be proud

i was also thinking steve worked security at stark towers (Even if he and his boss don't get along) but it's fine to not go with it. it's not something i mentioned in the universe yet

If gwen is barista. pepper will buy her cookies to put in an extra shot in her coffee

That's beautiful. Lol. I love it.

Oh gwen probably just gives pepper her drink on the house.

This is ridiculous/hilarious and I love it XD

herophelia: come join this madness? THERE IS ROOM FOR MANY

I want Gwen to have that bestie to smack her in the back of the head and go this dude is into you stop being a bitch

...why am I laugh crying at the idea of human!gamora both being gwens boss at the Starkbucks and being the one to go Gwen no when she’s rudeish to peter

oh lord. who would i even throw in there? what role would they have? I AM STILL TEMPTED!

(Gamora as the boss at Starkbucks. Gamora as the boss at Starkbucks!)

human gamora could be fun. i think she'd be so Done with life as a starbucks employee, but the benefits are so good.

hey gwen is done AF with life as a starkbucks employee too but it's helping her get through college and she thinks Gamora is awesome

i... would probably just use my uhura journal. cause not green.

not to mention her side eyeing gwen who is being kind of a shit to a very happy guy clearly into her.

gamora just like "look, anything named peter with that much energy and positivity will drive you nuts and make your life a fucking disaster and you will never get a moment's peace... but... in a good way. just stop being an ass and go give him a damn cookie."

hahaha

meanwhile any time quill comes in gwen just little sister side eyes him

and then teases gamora like "so i'm in the wedding right?"

"i will end you."

/menacingly breaks the head off a gingerbread man. then eats it.

quill, in the background: ...that's so hot

XD

oh my god this is such crack

So which one of them has an angry slightly feral cat named rocket who steals shiny stuff all the time.

definitely gamora. quill can barely keep himself alive.

The cat comes to work with her, even if he's not supposed to. And he's learned to try to take money from the tip jar.

gamora just rolls her eyes and sprays him without even having to look up

"rocket. go fetch!" /throws bottle cap

lol

he's just the crabbiest thing and gwen loves him so much.

but then she's v/ what when Rocket just climbs up in Peter's lap and is like "Friends? yes? Cool." sleeps on him

crabby, and pretends to hate everyone, but would absolutely cut a snitch for gamora.

they had an asshole customer raising a fuss and yelling at the both of them. rocket came out all fire and thunder and chased the person out

OH

some customer being a total asshat, rocket just runs by, claws to achilles tendon, scoots right out the door. gamora not even worried, knows he'll come back.

What if it's not a starbucks but a coffee shop gamora owned in stark towers called The Milano

"you wouldn't want that to get infected. can i call you an ambulance?"

and that's how they can get away with having the cat there

love it!

i'm playing how many mcu references can i stuff into one verse

signature drink is a frapucchino looking thing with a whole milano cookie shoved on top

y u p

so you can order the milano at the milano

yup

it's gwen's very favorite

especially the orange chocolate one with the orange chocolate milano on top

faynia we may be going wild here

which makes it even more fun that gamora demands she stop being an ass and go take peter a cookie. cause they probably buy milanos by the truckload.

they make him a mint milano that's no coffee just chocolate and way too much sugar

OH!

they have their own pepperidge farm delivery dude. its peter quill

the mint milano, extra chocolate, extra whip, extra syrup, which tony also secretly loves but does not particularly want to be seen drinking several times a day, so natasha is the one to come down to fetch them.

is there already a natasha? i'm shoving her in here, too, if not.

please do

natasha can be one of the teachers at juilliard/gwens favorite teacher

or idk

in this one is pepper the wife, or still the assistant? i was thinking natalie rushman but not a lie. but teacher could be fun.

i think pepper is the wife

though, if she also works in the same tower, she'd see more of them all

if natasha worked in the tower can she be the person who is awesome enough to let gwen use the employee showers? her roommates at juilliard are disaster assholes and she can't use the shower in the dorms because it's always a wreck

maybe she went to juliard. was a dancer for a while. then got into the business world. she and gwen could bond that way?

and if she's now the one who runs tony's life, she can get away with pretty much anything. she would totally let gwen use the facilities.

that works for her.

gwen is a nice kid. she has a soft spot for orphans. all that good stuff.

She's only half an orphan. She has her dad, the amazing Steve Rogers.

(and in this verse she's genetically his kiddo. because. idk. it made sense.)

BUT

yes

good

she loves Miss Rushman

ah. ok. i missed that. well, still. gwen is a nice kid.

she really is.

point stands, natasha romanoff, patron saint of... surly teenage girls who are awesome and just need someone to appreciate their awesomeness?

I’m enjoying sitting here reading all this. <- me rn

yes good

natasha gets free coffee

she deals with tony stark on a daily basis. she will take all the caffeine she can get.

OH! she has also absolutely returned rocket more than once cause he managed to get up in an elevator somehow and was taking shiny things from offices she didn't want anyone to call animal control.

and then stayed for a coffee and let rocket bat at her charm bracelet. tell anyone she has a soft spot for feral monster cats and she will deny it and frame you for something shady.

she finds Gwen in one of the elevators because she'd been looking for Rocket and it's just sigh

oh man, can they go on a cat hunt?

yes good

peter joins in like "HEY GUYS WHAT'S GOING ON CAN I HELP!?"

and gwen is just going "Shhhhh! we're trying to find a cat."

nat: what happened?
gwen: rocket
nat: /sigh
gwen: yup
nat: give me a second. i'll clear my next meeting.

peter, running up tot he nearest person: we're trying to find a cat have you seen one!?!
nat, literally scruffing him: ignore him.

Gwen: trying to tell peter the cat is a secret even though literally the whole tower knows rocket
Peter: Whys the cat a secret? Secrets are fun! I like secrets. babbles forever
Gwen: turning to look at Nat like

nat: peter. have a doughnut. /shoves an entire bear claw in his mouth so he can't talk

i'm just waiting for the day when Nat sees Peter with a broken nose and she asks what happens. Like how much glee is he going to have explaining he heard gwen singing in the shower and then gwen got startled so she decked him

nat will be so freaking proud

that's her girl! all grown up and punching people who sneak up on her right in the damn face.

but seriously, self defense reflex is very important. especially for petite and/or attractive women.

And gwen is a pocket sized girl

her dad is probably also super proud

and ready to lineface at peter

i don't want to hog all the good interaction, but nat would be 100% down for teaching gwen how to fight like a girl and make anyone who thinks that's an insult eat their words and probably a few of their teeth.

and i'm sure gamora gives her a pepper spray key chain as part of her holiday bonus every year. without fail.

gwen has the best adopted sister/aunt

that thing she did to happy in the ring during her impromptu job interview? absolutely teaching gwen how to do that. can you just imagine them making happy be her "attacker" over and over again to demonstrate? XD

happy, eventually: no. just. no. no more. i am saying no! and... running away very quickly now that i have.

and both girls just look at each other and chase him just for fun

poor happy

run into. someone else, idek who. "what are you doing?" "chasing happy." "ok. well... best of luck?"

i enjoy balancing the badass with the utterly silly

same

Happy just "Oh my GOD WHY?!"

Steve: Happy's hiding in the broom closet. as the girls race by
Happy: GOD DAMN IT ROGERS!

the skidshuffle and then the clack clack clack of stilettos and whatever kind of shoes gwen is wearing coming back the other way. "you said you would help, happy!" "i regret all my life choices!"

Gwen wears converse sneakers or work safe sketchers

so clack clack clack and thump thump thump and happy just hates his life so much right now XD

or, you know, back then when she was teaching gwen

also, plurk was hiding replies but steve working security in the tower is cute. maybe he talked to gamora and asked her about hiring his kid. so she'd be close. even though he totally trusts her. just cause he loves her. and wants to be nearby if she needs him.

and gamora just like "huh... a dad who actually gives a shit" internally and externally: :| "i won't go easy on her just because she's your daughter, but... trial period, two weeks."

Yep. Dad Steve is best dad.

So she’s been working at milanos for about three years. Since she was sixteen in high school

Or fifteen. For two years. So she’s seventeen now

works for me. i mean, i'm assuming she was competent as fuck and learned all the machines and software and studied the drinks until she could make them in her sleep. someone who takes it for granted that you just work hard at things? yeah, gamora is keeping her.

and she would have been very understanding about her school commitments and stuff. like, absolutely take u p a little counterspace and make a "homework" section. as long as stuff is clean and when a customer is at the register, she's on it.

guys. we should watch elf together. does anyone want to?

I just got your message and yes I’m for everything you’re suggesting

so, do you have discord?

i'm absolute shit at remembering who is who on there
