Dear Diary,
I am not sure if I am suppose to write in here everyday? Or what? The psychologist wasn’t very clear on that part. Actually, the psychologist was rather rude. Not sure I want to go back. It is not because I am running away from my problems!! I mean, what do you know diary? you don’t turn into a green giant when your heart speeds up!....Huh, I am fighting against a diary....a diary...perhaps I should give you a name? I think that would be more creepy, wouldn’t it? Well, this is my Diary, where I should write and de-stress...according to the psychologist!
Till later,
Bruce Banner
Dear diary,
Natasha got into a huge fight with Pepper today. It sounded like a harsh one. I had to push Steve out before he tried to stop the two. No one gets in between the two and comes out alive. I had to tug Tony out as well, because being a pervert, he wasn't to see what would happened. Luckily, by dinner, they were on good terms again. Either way, we all stayed slightly away from them, just in case.
Still wary,
Bruce Banner
Dear Diary,
Coulson came in today, sick. Clint was not happy about it, at all. Coulson was trying to argue that it was his job, but through all the coughing and sniffling, and broken voice....and we were all there, backing Clint up, even Tony. Honestly, Tony might think he is bad and cool, but we have all learned better. I mean, he is with Thor, who with his big blue eyes and beautiful blond hair, and really big arms, can make Tony pretty much do anything. We all know Tony, might poke fun of Coulson here and there, but he cares for him. So.....we all forced him to head back to bed and get rest. We then made sure that Clint went along and took care of the agent. Team work at its best? I think so!

Dear Diary,
We fought against Loki, gain. Don’t we always? Thor managed to tackle him down and cuddle him for a good while.....It was a bit awkward. i had to once again tug Steve away because family time needed private moments. I also had to tug Tony away because he was not only a prvert, but his boyfriend was cuddling his non-Brother, or as Clint tends to say, brother from another mother, which I think would explain a lot if it was true. But I digress....we left the two! oh, forgot to say that Loki was screaming to be saved from the cuddling, but hey, brother’s normal relationship and annoyance. Right?
Single child,

Dear Diary,
Well....we had thanksgiving for the first time, as a team and with Thor. It was actually...not as bad as it could have been. Woke up early to prepare things at one of Tony’s many mansions. Tony didn’t help because it was Tony. Steve, did help out, I hinted at it the night before so he had to. Thor was pretty excited to take part in the holiday, so he was helping with things. It was nice because he could cut up the vegetables pretty quickly. Coulson was preparing cheesecake. In between this, Clint was trying to explain Thor about why there were Pilgrims and Native Americans, and what they were, and how horrible the holiday was because of the many massacres. Which was a bad move because one, it made Thor feel horrible that he had been that type of person before and two, that his brother had also taken part in such an act. So then....we agreed to let Loki come to our dinner.
Of course, Loki brings along Sigyn, who is such a sweetheart! And Loki’s kids! There were a lot of his kids, and they also brought their significant others. I did like that fellow, Sherlock, he was interesting and amusing, especially his relationship with his brother Mycroft. Apparently, their real names were Vali and Nari. EXCEPT! Sigyn had told the warrior ….4 because of Sif....because honestly, are they always called Warrior 3 and Sif? different cultures, but I digress!.....the warriors came over, so that added more people to the dinner. We had to make ten turkeys, because we knew Volstagg would eat a whole Turkey, and so would Thor....so it was beyond hectic. There were screams, laughter, a mess. Tony was not amused, but Thor told him something which apparently made it all better. Of course, Loki had to threaten Tony about hurting his brother-from-another-mother-but-not-really-but-it-would-explain- everything!
--->continue
Natasha was talking to Sif, away from the kitchen because last time she tried cooking anything she almost burned down Pepper’s place. Sigyn was helping though, thankfully, because without her and her magic, we would have never finished. Clint was talking to Fandral, of course he would while Coulson was talking to Hogun, who was helping with the cheesecakes. Hogun was so quiet, I think he matched Coulson well, quiet and in the background, but deadly and important to their team! Also, I’ve written how many pages already?! this is getting long! I am getting to the fun part! So we finished getting everything ready and we sat down to eat. A huge table that Loki magicked in.
Before we ate, we had to give thanks, because someone genius thought it would be a good thing to do. Steve went first, he gave thanks for being defrosted, that he met so many amazing people and that he is part of a great team, and …... that he met me.... which is weird, because no one but Betty, perhaps, hopefully, would say that..... and no, i am not blushing or feeling giddy at all....Tony went next and not wanting to be shown up, he kissed Thor. Natasha and Pepper rolled their eyes, before each giving their thanks, of being alive and seeing another day and having found a family. Clint was next, and he gave thanks for finding a new calling, a boyfriend, and a job in which he gets to save the world. I gave thanks for having people actually try to understand me. Loki gave thanks for his family and for the avengers because they entertained him.
---> continue
Sigyn was sweet and gave thanks for meeting us all and for greeting her and treating her so warmly. Though, I am surprised that Loki and her did not sit together, or that they hardly interacted.....huh....the children went next and I honestly did not pay a lot of attention because there were a number of them. Darcy and Jane got there, just in time before we began eating. Fury couldn’t make it but he called. Then Doom showed up because he needed to talk to Loki so we just decided to let him join in. Rhodey, Tony’s friend also showed up. Much to my shock, Betty showed up and apparently Steve had cajoled Coulson into letting it happen. I do not know how many people were there, but it was a big mess and a big party and....just chaos!! like Tony got smashed and started making out with Thor, who also got drunk! Clint was tipsy and getting possessive of Coulson! I did not drink, because I did not think it would have been that wise to....Natasha was wrestling with Sif! Steve and Sigyn hit it off, but I wasn’t too worried. Though, Loki was shooting from dark looks at Steve, that worried me. And then Tony remembered it was Black Friday, and suddenly we were all at the mall. It was not pretty. At all. I will have nightmares. Nightmares!!
-tired as hell

Dear Diary,
We are doing Secret Santa...or at least we were. Thor didn’t get it and blurted that he got Clint. Clint was excited and began telling Thor all that he wanted, because being a God, it had to be possible. Coulson was not amused. He threatened Clint to not say who he had gotten or no sex for him, but it was too late, Clint told me that he gotten me. Which I am glad, because had it been Tony, things would have ended horribly, I know. Of course, Clint will now be crabby and whiny because he’ll be stuck on the couch for a while. Tony was excited because apparently he had Steve, so now he was thinking of way to use ME as a gift! Natasha got Tony, so she blackmailed him into forgetting any of his plans that had to do me or else; it worked. Steve shyly told Natasha he had gotten her and that left me, and because everyone else had said theirs, and from deduction they knew who I had....I got Thor! Coulson was not amused at all. Him and the other agents are still doing their Secret Santa at least!
Now what to get?

Dear Diary,
Loki came up. Think he is still traumatized from all the cuddling and from the thanksgiving dinner. The fighting was stopped before it began. Thor exclaimed something about Santa and presents, and so we had to tell Loki about it. Not sure it was a good idea. I have this idea that Loki will either go Grinch, and he already wears a lot of green, and I can see him creating a spell in which a narrator follows him around and talks in rhyme.....and in the end through prob Thor’s meddling and Loki’s wife arrival will cause Loki’s heart to grow three times its size, though I think that is actually a condition.....
OR, Loki could go Nightmare Before Christmas and kidnap Santa Claus and decide to take up the job instead because he will believe to be able to do it better and probably end up causing mayhem.......
One of these two will end up happening, because that is just how our lives are....
Amused and worried,

Dear Diary,
we started decorating for Christmas. Thor got tangled up with the lights, it was funny. I helped Coulson untangle him while trying to not break the lights. There is mistletoe hiding all over the place. Honestly, I think I’ve been caught under it about four times now, twice with Coulson, another with Natasha, and another with Clint. Of course, Clint has been walking around with mistletoe and holding it up whenever he is next to Coulson, who indulges him. Steve was caught with Tony, who waggled his eyebrows, but saw Thor coming over and instead jumped the other. I guess that is the most romantic thing Tony has done....Steve was relieved, so I took Tony’s place and got my kiss. It has been a nice, joyful feeling and we are holding unto to it for as long as we can. We have even started teaching Thor some carols! He wants to go caroling, we told him it wouldn’t be such a great idea....
all i want for Christmas....

Dear Diary,
So....remember how I wrote about Loki shooting dark looks at Steve during Thanksgiving dinner? Yes well....apparently Loki made it seem fit that to punish Steve, he would use me. I was kidnapped. I do not know all the details, because Hulk won’t let me see those memories...I get glimpses but nothing much....all I know is that I was Hulk, trying to attack Loki, when I am knocked out. Probably tranquilizers or something along those lines. I woke up, pretty much naked because my pants were ripped and I only had strips of the cloth left on my body. I was in shackles in a dungeon of sorts. Which was weird because Sigyn had told me that Loki lived in an apartment. Didn’t tell me where, duh, but just that it was apartment. I asked him and he just scowled and crossed his arms. I asked why he kidnapped me, the Hulk, who kidnaps the Hulk? besides the government obviously....but he said nothing. I figure I could meditate while I waited for the others to find me and rescue me, or have Loki let me go. Which ever came first.
Not sure how long I was there for, I do remember Loki talking and rambling something about Sigyn and how she had left him, and how dare she leave him when she promised forever, and perhaps he did trick her into marrying him, and perhaps he pushed her away all the time, and didn’t touch her, and called her things, and repeatedly talked about it all as a mistake, she should know that he didn’t mean it......so I had to play love doctor here and informed Loki that he was being an asshole and that Sigyn deserved better so he better man up and say sorry because you might love a person but you need more than that for a relationship and if she were to leave him she was on her right and besides, the whole killing people and trying to commit genocide, yeah, that probably needed some discussing because if she wanted to leave him after that, she was also on her right, I mean, what did he expect, and if she wanted to stay with him, she was also on her right, she did what she wanted and Loki better understand that.....he walked away after that, but I was unchained so I got to walk out of the dungeon and into his apartment. It was pretty nice actually. It was hours after Loki was gone that the others found me. Steve was the first one to get to me, of course. It never gets old, the warmth, the comfort, and the feeling of safety from his embrace.
Lost but found,

Dear Diary,
So Christmas is a couple of days left! I have done some shopping, but I yet to get Steve anything! I do not know what to get him. The truth is, we have been taken our relationship really slow. The whole fear of turning into a green giant, and him with not having been in a relationship before and it being with a man....I do not know, perhaps I could......cannot think about that right now.....the presents for the others are pretty much done! I hope they like it! I even got Loki one, just in case he pops up and he comes over, hopefully it won’t be another thanksgiving....oh god....
worried,

Dear Diary,
Christmas Eve went off without a hitch! Everyone enjoyed their presents. Loki did make an appearance with Sigyn by his side. They had their own Christmas gathering but he wanted to drop a present for his brother and for me. I was pretty shocked, he told me to wait until later to open it. Thor got a huge, and I mean HUGE, stuffed dog. Probably heard the story about Thor going into a pet store and asking for something big enough he could ride.....It was....nice.... it was a nice Christmas.....we laughed, we hugged, we wished each other the best....we opened gifts....
Clint got me clothes, purple, our favorite color. I gave Thor a new coat. Tony gave Steve a scarf along with a list of suggestions on how to use it. Steve didn’t let me see the list but I am sure I know the things Tony wrote. Natasha gave Tony a nesting doll, in the shape of the Iron Man. Thor got Clint a book on physics and projectiles. We then watched as Coulson opened his own Secret Santa, who had been Maria; she gave him a pair of armani sunglasses.
I think Thor and Tony stayed in the living room, since Thor wanted to wait for Santa Claus. I opened Loki’s gift, it was collar. It helps keep the Hulk from coming out. Don’t need to go into detail about what I gave Steve, eh? Morning after, we, Steve and I, found Tony sleeping on Thor’s chest, both passed out. The others are still sleeping as well, so Steve and I just grabbed some tea and came back to our room. He is reading one of the books Coulson got him, about resent historical events. I am writing on here. Probably will take a nap, because...well, I can.....
