[closed] Bonding boys and awkward things

Who: Tony Stark ([personal profile] definingfuture), Bucky Barnes ([personal profile] anotheroldsoldier), Steve Rogers ([personal profile] captenacious)
When: First part of August
Where: The Smugha Cave
What: Babysitting the cave (Quest #2 surveillance job), camping, fighting Shades, having awkward talks.
Warnings: Arachne transformation talk if spiders creep you out, but should be tame other than that.



It's almost a normal adventure for them. A group of Avengers on a job to defend the important production that will benefit the city? It could happen. They've even had camping trips before. It's just that this time the adventure has gotten a little bit more complicated. The Bond between Tony and Bucky is still new and, at least for Tony, kind of exciting, but it does put their relationships with each other at slight odds with Steve added to the group. There's tension that all of them can probably feel -- nothing bad, but definitely uncomfortable. Maybe they shouldn't have agreed to camp out in front of the cave together right off the bat.

But they are there now, and as the sun sets, at least there are distractions. During a patrol looking for potential danger, there's some rustling heard in the trees around the cave site. Tony pauses, breaking a momentary silence to peer into the shadows cast by branches.

"Well, this is creepier than I expected. Is it too late to un-sign up for the job?"

A thread of genuine unease filters through the Bond between Tony and Bucky, but even without it, the typical cover up can be heard in his voice. They've known each other for too long for Tony to really pull that off.
