"I will tie you to the bed if I have to."
"Ooh, kinky. I didn't know you had it in you, Drake."
"Shut up. I can't believe you set the bed on fire."
"And I can't belive you take up this much room," John says. He stretches his legs out again, bumping into Bobby, and Bobby swears he's doing it on purpose. This is ridiculous. He should've told John tough luck, and made him sleep on the floor.
Only, Bobby is a nice person. Really. It's not his fault he wants to murder his roomate half the time; everyone wants to murder his roomate half the time. John just brings homicidal tendencies out in people. It's his charming personality that does it.
But the thing no one else really knows about John is, he has nightmares. Loud, thrashing, fall-off-the-bed nightmares. And that's fine; Bobby's a deep sleeper most of the time, and John's his friend, so he's not going to just be a dick about it when his friend is in distress. Even if said friend would ever deny being in distress.
But apparently his friend is also a fucking dumbass, because this time he didn't just fall off his bed, he fell asleep with his lighter in his hand and now there's a charred heap where his sheets used to be.
Basically, Bobby's pretty sure Professor X has a messed up sense of humor, and that's why he and Pyro ended up sharing a room. He sincerely hopes the Professor had nothing to do with the current situation, though.
"Stay still," Bobby says, because the because the bed shifts again as John turns on his side. Bobby feels John's breath against the back of his neck and he holds back a shiver.
"Sorry," John says. He actually sounds like he might mean it, and Bobby wishes there were witnesses. John touches his shoulder, and Bobby says, "It's okay. You should do something about those nightmares, though."
"What?" John laughs. "Let the Professor snoop around my head?"
"You could talk to me," Bobby says.
John laughs again, and he slips his hand down Bobby's shoulder, slides it around his waist. "Maybe all I needed was a teddy bear, huh?"
"Jesus," Bobby says. He tries to ignore the downward flow of blood, because it's already late, and they have classes tomorrow, and the last fucking thing he needs is for someone to read his mind and see what he and John have been up to. "Just don't set my bed on fire, okay?"
"I've got you to keep me under control," John says, tugging Bobby in a little closer. Bobby rolls his eyes, but he doesn't pull away. He falls asleep with John's arms wrapped around him, and they both make it through the night without getting burnt to a crisp. In all, Bobby counts that as a win.

Date: 2014-06-07 06:26 am (UTC)New Friendships, Bucky/Steve & Erik/Charles & Natasha & Raven (MCU/X-Men) -- part 1
Date: 2014-06-30 06:18 am (UTC)“It’ll be nice to be around people our own age,” Steve said while tucking in his shirt.
“What’s sad is they’re still younger than us, but look--“
“--Bucky,” Steve cut in, giving him a disapproving look he knew Bucky could see in the mirror. Steve didn’t need to remind Bucky that they were robbed of growing old together, let alone that they were plain lucky to be alive and together in the first place.
“They all can’t be like Raven... or that Logan guy,” Steve continued, his lips noticeably curving downward a little as he said the other man’s name.
Bucky turned away from the mirror and retrieved a pair of cufflinks from the dresser.
“Did you get a weird feeling you’d met him before, too?” he asked over his shoulder.
“No,” Steve replied before mumbling under his breath, “It was more like a scary feeling that you and he would have a lot in common.”
“I heard that, y’know,” Bucky said as he finished with his shirtsleeves, using a deceivingly light tone which usually meant to Steve that he’d pay for his comment sooner rather than later.
Steve held up his hands in surrender, apology forthcoming, but he was interrupted by a knock at the door.
“Are you guys decent in there?”
Recognizing Natasha’s voice, Bucky kept eye contact with Steve as he stepped past him and over to the door. He leaned a hand on it, his metal arm outstretched.
“You still have to say it.”
Steve stepped in close to Bucky and held his warm hand in his.
“I’m sorry,” Steve whispered, leaning in to nuzzle Bucky’s cheek. Bucky shifted a little to speak into Steve’s ear.
“Later,” he whispered back, and then moved away from the door to allow Steve to open it. Steve mentally thanked Natasha for her good timing and forced himself not to think about what could happen later that night. He knew that Natasha’s keen eyes would see even a light blush.
“Finally,” Natasha sighed. “Raven’s here. She said they’re waiting for you downstairs.”
She looked past Steve and nodded to Bucky, who acted like he was surprised to see her. Steve wasn’t sure why he did little things like that, but he thought maybe Bucky pretended he couldn’t hear people from a mile away for the same reason he did it.
“Oh, good, it’s you. Stark Junior has been...” Bucky glanced at Steve and rethought his choice of words, “...hovering lately.”
“Well, ‘Stark Junior’ has been lonely lately. JARVIS told me that Colonel Rhodes hung up on him Tuesday and hasn’t answered Tony’s calls since then. With his girlfriend out of town for an extra two days with Happy and his boyfriend spending most of his time with Dr. McCoy, you two are currently his best options for human interaction.”
Steve sighed in a long-suffering manner, but he was smiling when he next spoke.
“Even JARVIS is getting tired of him, I think... Well, I understand why Tony doesn’t want to be around you, but why not Clint or Thor?”
The way Natasha laughed at the question made Steve and Bucky exchange looks. She waved her hand dismissively.
“I’ll fill you in later. Right now, you two need to get going. Raven and I will ride down with you.”
New Friendships, Bucky/Steve & Erik/Charles & Natasha & Raven (MCU/X-Men) -- part 2 (end)
Date: 2014-06-30 06:20 am (UTC)“Nice to see you again, Raven,” Steve greeted politely while Bucky simply acknowledged her with a nod. “Where are you two off to tonight, if you don’t mind me asking?”
“Hmm,” Raven tapped her chin. “I’m thinking Mediterranean. You up for some hummus, Tasha?”
Raven’s smile was innocent, but her eyes were sharp and devious as she looked at Natasha.
“I hate you,” Natasha replied flatly. The elevator doors opened with a ping and she was the first into it.
“Okay, how about Thai?” Raven asked with a short laugh, following her inside.
As the two women discussed where to eat, often breaking into the local language of the cuisine’s originating country, Bucky and Steve stood silently behind them in the wide elevator and pulled on their coats. Steve stopped Bucky from wearing the gloves just yet, though, by interlocking his fingers with Bucky’s metal ones. Bucky glanced over and parted his lips like he wanted to say something, but upon seeing the honest look in Steve’s eyes he simply gripped Steve’s hand back.
Once they were on the ground floor, Natasha and Raven said their farewells and as they walked toward the front doors they waved to two men dressed in similar business casual attire as Steve and Bucky.
“Good evening,” Charles said warmly as they approached. Erik stood to greet them as well.
Steve only then let go of Bucky’s hand so that he could shake those of the two semi-retired teachers. Bucky stiffly did the same. He couldn’t help being wary around people who could read his mind or who could rip his arm off with little effort, but he was slowly getting used to these two in particular. If Charles or Erik noticed his behavior, they didn’t outwardly react to it. Inwardly, however... Bucky remembered an offhand mention of them sometimes speaking telepathically, and he’d been looking for some sort of tell in either of them ever since. He was partly impressed and partly irritated that he hadn’t seen one yet. (Conversely, when Steve heard about the connection, he had smiled, said something fond, and thought little more of it.)
“Shall we?” Erik said quietly, gesturing for Steve and Bucky to go first.
Behind them, Erik and Charles shared a glance.
’He almost caught you that time, Charles,’ Erik thought.
’He’s just like you, you know: insufferably paranoid,’ Charles teasingly thought back.
’It’s good he has someone similar to you, then: unbearably trusting,’ Erik replied dryly.
Just then, Bucky turned back to look at them for a long moment. Steve glanced back too, confused, and then took hold of Bucky’s arm which drew his attention again to the waiting car ahead of them.
Laughter echoed in the two mutants’ linked minds as Erik squeezed Charles’ shoulder and winked.
’We’re not so much alike,’ Erik thought after a beat, a mixture of emotions accompanying his words.
’I know, Erik.’ Charles replied soothingly. He slightly tilted his head to the side. ‘In fact... He sometimes reminds me of Logan.’
This time, Erik chuckled outwardly, which earned him an accusatory glare from Bucky.
(Idek what this is... A sign that I should be asleep? I apologize if the characters are OOC -- I don't usually write any of them, lol.)

Date: 2014-06-30 05:09 pm (UTC)I made myself resist my go-to characters (Remy, John, Bobby, Clint, Loki, Thor) b/c I wanted to include girls for once, lol. I really really want to see a Bruce, Hank, and Tony story now, though. I'll have to search AO3 or something.
You're welcome, and I'm so glad you liked it~! :D
