Summary Peter tries to get the group to agree to watch his movie.
Notes zomg, I've had this forever and totally forgot it. . . or I think I forgot it if I am reposting eep! Sorry!. Anyway this is just slice of life fluff.
"Okay, we can blame 'Cap for this mess, right?" Jessica Drew asked as she pulled at the hole in her bright red uniform. The rest of the present Avenger members turned to look at her, then at Cap.
They all nodded in unison.
Steve made a disgruntled sound. "I don't see how angry mole people are my fault," he answered, looking up from his examination of Tony's armor.
Tony stopped trying to wave Steve away long enough to remove his helmet and give Steve a mournful look. "I believe you said 'since nothing seems to be happening right now, let's have a movie night.'" He shook his head. "Sorry Steve, but tempting fate like that makes angry mole people your fault."
Steve batted Tony on the side of his head, as he hoisted Tony to his feet.
"Tony's right," Luke laughed, dusting himself off. "You jinxed us, 'Cap."
"Yeah," Peter agreed. "I'm just happy it was just mole people, and not anything worse."
"So, when it is something worse," Steve said turning to Peter, "it'll be your fault now, right?"
"Oh no!" Peter gasped, clasping his hands over his mouth. Luke made a fist and faked a punch in Peter's direction.
"Come on boys," Jessica laughed, "Let's try and make it home for dinner, shall we? We've got to forge, remember? Jarvis took the night off to go out with a certain Aunt."
"It's not like that," Peter insisted.
"Yes it is," Jessica said with a smile.
"Right, food, I'll order us pizzas, if that works for everyone," Tony said over Jessica's teasing. He didn't bother to wait for agreements, he knew pizza was the one food everyone on the team would eat and was already using extremis to place an order.
"And movie night?" Steve asked.
"You got something in mind, Winghead?" Tony asked, looking up curiously at Steve.
"I think so."
********
Tony, Luke, Mary Jane, and Jessica Jones stared at Steve as though the man had suddenly sprouted a second head.
"I'm sorry, you want to watch what?" Jessica asked.
"Cabin Fever," Steve repeated again.
Tony and Mary Jane continued to stare at Steve; their eyebrows nearly reaching their browline. Jessica leaned over to her husband and tugged at his shirt until Luke bent low enough for her to stage whisper into his ear.
"And everyone is 100% sure this is Steve and not a clone, or malfunctioning LMD, or some other form of replacement?"
Luke just shook his head, "So far as I know he's the real deal, but maybe he is suffering head trauma from the mole people mess?"
"I can make some medical calls," Tony said, trying hard not to break the routine up with a smile.
"What?" Steve sighed as he took the amused and mocking expressions of those around him. "What wrong with that movie? Peter was telling me earlier that it's got a strong moral message." His brow furrowed as he went over the usual objections to movies he suggested. "Is it too sappy for you all?"
Luke held his sides and tried very hard not to laugh in Captain America's face. Everyone else however whirled around to cast accusing looks at Peter Parker.
Mary Jane grabbed his wrist.
"A strong moral message, Mr. Parker?" she questioned as she got nose to nose with her husband.
Peter smiled at his wife and tried to look innocent. "Well it does, MJ. It dramatically shows why it's better to help people in need rather than be selfish. It's practically the same moral as Beauty and the Beast."
"I thought it sounded decent," Steve said, but he no longer sounded sure of himself.
'There see, he wants to watch it!" Peter said grabbing the DVD and springing over MJ toward the home theater set up. However, before he could insert the movie, the entire system retreated in the wall.
"Hey, unfair use of powers!" Peter groaned, looking accusingly over at Tony.
Tony ignored him and went to Steve, putting his hand sympathetically on his friends shoulder. "Did Peter elaborate on how the moral is learned?" he asked.
"Well no, not really, but I assume that spoils the movie," Steve answered.
"Can we please just surprise him?" Peter begged while trying to see if he could coax Tony's entertainment system out from the wall. "Cap likes surprises."
"Steve likes pleasant surprises," Tony corrected. Then he turned to Steve. "This would not be a pleasant surprise."
"No?"
"Man, unless you find watching people's skin rot of their bodies pleasant then listen to Tony, not Peter," Luke said.
"What!" Steve asked aghast. Now he too turned and looked accusingly at Peter. Peter for his part managed to almost appear remorseful.
"It's just, we never get to watch horror movies," he said giving everyone his best 'kicked puppy' look.
"Peter, that's not horror," Mary Jane told him. "It's gore. And Cap isn't the only objectee."
"What about, Saw?" Peter suggested, looking at the group with hope in his eyes.
"No," Tony said snapped.
"Dawn of the Dead?" Peter asked looking to at Luke for support. Luke paused a moment but then shook his head. "Sorry Man, to close to things we've gone through."
"What about Shaun of the Dead?" Jessica asked.
The group paused to consider it.
"What is it about?" Steve whispered to Tony.
Tony shrugged then accessed IMDB. "Comical Zombies," he answered after a few seconds.
"How . . . how are zombies comical?" Steve asked.
Peter looked to Steve and Tony like a kid asking his parents for candy, "You could watch it and find out? Please? I wanted to see this one, but I missed it because I was you know," he looked to Mary Jane, "in a cocoon . . . thing."
"Cocoon thing," Mary Jane muttered to Peter. But then she turned to Steve and Tony and took up Peter's cause. "Maybe we do owe him this."
Each Avenger in turn nodded agreement. When Steve, the last one, nodded, Peter jumped onto the ceiling
"YES! I get my movie!"
The rest of the Avengers looked up at him in various stages of amusement.
"It's the little things that make him happy," MJ explained, "but do we actually have it or does one of us need to go rent it?" she asked
"Just had it downloaded," Tony chimed in.
"I'll get the popcorn!" Steve said while the rest of the group made themselves comfortable around the couch and prepared to enjoy a precious quiet night.
