Title: Trickle
Author: lilpocketninja
Theme: a cappella
Fandom: Young Avengers

Summary/Comments: Set in the happy, nebulous time between YA #12 and the beginning of Civil War.


Patriot leaves practice early and snaps something about having to work for a living when both Iron Man and Captain America give him a stern look.

After practice, the whole group collapses around the den in their ‘lair’ - the floor below the New Avengers’ living quarters - except for Kate, who has some fancy dinner party thing going on. Cassie gives her a half-hearted wave as she departs, but otherwise they’re all too tired to move.

Tommy, even after four hours of combat training, can’t sit still for longer than ten minutes and announces to the world that he’s going out.

Jarvis brings down food, which reminds Cassie that she was supposed to be home an hour ago. At this point, Teddy and Billy look at each other and Billy tilts his head toward Teddy’s bedroom. Teddy shakes his head and blinks in The Vision’s general direction. Billy had forgotten he was there, as usual, because the guy never talks.

Billy sulks on the opposite end of the couch, and Teddy ignores him in favor of the television, but they both breathe a huge sigh of relief when Captain America runs in, grabs Vision, and runs back out with no explanation. Because he’s still pretending to be mad, Billy waits a whole three seconds before scooting back in Teddy’s direction and wiggling his eyebrows.

"Alone at last!" Teddy whoops, as they race each other for Billy's bedroom.
