She's a Genius!
"OH MY GOD ROGERS, I SWEAR IF YOU DON'T TOUCH MY BOOBS RIGHT NOW I WILL-"
Her threat was cut off by more coughs and gags. Toni was currently lying on the pavement, trying not to suffocate to death. The arc reactor was damaged, and Brucie + Nat were no where close enough to her location. Of course, she had her back up, which she handed to Steve, but she couldn't replace the damaged one on her own. And just her luck, she had the guy from the 70s to assist her because her other male teammate was an asshat. Well, and the other one was a clueless god.
"You need me to do what??" He asked, cheeks turning red.
"I'm not..asking you to have sex..with me Steve!" Toni gasped. "JUST..TAKE THE..SHIRT OFF.."
He still looked completely uncomfortable, but did as she asked. His faced reddened even more when he saw her bra, and Clint just whistled from behind him.
"If you're so familiar with..naked girls,Clint....than you do it!" All Toni needed was that new arc reactor plugged in, but now it seemed like she was playing 20 questions with these three.
"JUST, tell me what to do!" Steve shouted. Even though he was trying to be courteous, his teammate was still in distress.
"Release the...one in...my chest, than...unplug it. After......just plug...the new one....in!" Oh wow, those dark spots weren't there before.Steve's hand was now ON the arc reactor at least, though he looks like he could explode any second with how red his face is.
"Ok...now, twist and lift it out....righty..tighty, left loosey." He followers her directions as the asshat giggles from somewhere behind him.
"I will not..hesitate to..rip those balls..off Barton."
"TONI PLEASE! WHAT NOW??"
"Unplug it, than..plug in the...new......"
"Toni? TONI?!? C'mon, we're-"
The next thing Toni heard was Clint's cries for help. Serves him right.
"Go Nat! Kill the bitch." Ah, it felt so good to be snarky with a normal breath of air.
"Toni! Oh thank gosh you're alright." She opened her eyes to Steve with his head in his hands, taking deep breaths.
"Sadly, you should be thanking Clint." Nat grunted out.
"Old Stevie here was gonna let you die." Clint rasped from his current position: in a wrestling hold by Nat. (Bless this woman.)
"I WOULD NEVER-"
"It's ok!" Brucie stepped in. "You BOTH did it correctly and Toni's fine now."
"I would have attempted to help, if the eye of the hawk had not done so before me!"
"I have a plan." Toni announced, standing up and ignoring their bickering. "Ok, everyone come touch my boobs."
Steve sputtered, Clint attempted to laugh, Nat remained impassive, Thor looked confused (as usual) and Brucie smiled at her.
"This way," she continued, "no one will have any problems saving my life next time. They're just squishy fleshy circles."
