Let's play a game
Tony
I decided we need to get to know the new guys better. You know, they've been here for two weeks, and we still know nothing about them.
A game of Two Truths And A Lie should fix that.
I called everyone to the living room, Cap and Bucky sat on the loveseat, Maria, Pep and Nat all shared the sofa. Simmons perched on the arm of Daisy's chair, before the latter pulled her down onto her lap. Wanda and Nabula curled up together on the floor, leaning against Daisy and Simmons' chair.
I sat on the other arm chair, disgruntled because Bruce was off world with Thor, Carol and Valkyrie; and Peter was in holiday with May.
The others came in, and quietly took their places; Lynn, Marlene and Uriah sat on the sofa, Marlene leaning in to Lynn, who stroked her blonde hair softly.
Christina and Will took the other loveseat, and Four sat with Tris on the floor.
"What are we playing?" Will asked
"Two truths and a Lie," I grin
"So, we're playing 'opening up?"Lynn said sarcastically
"Yup," I said, unphased.
She rolled her eyes, but didnt say anything.
Wanda
I like Lynn. Tony doesn't, I can see that. She's a lot like Nat.
I have to go first, for some stupid reason. We were playing us against the 'Dauntless Gang' as Tony called them.
"Ugh, fine. My favourite colour is red, I can hear people think if they think super loud, and when I had my first I lifted up all the objects in the room without realizing."
They looked at each other, frowning.
"The lie is... you can hear people think?" Christina asked.
"Nope, my favourite colour is blue" (A/N this is a headcannon I have that after Pietro died, Wanda's favourite colour was blue, also her gf is blue so...)
"Wouldn't have guessed that," Tris said
"Did you really levitate all the stuff? Who was your first kiss?" Marlene leaned in
"I did, and it was Nebuala."
"Cool."
"Right, Four, you go," Tony said.
Four
I sighed, trying to conjure some stuff up in my mind, "Umm... I'm only afraid of Four things- hence the nickname, and one of them is a zipline; I missed my dad the first day I transferred; and my real name is Tobias."
They looked at each other, and Tony said, "You cant be afraid of only four things. What about spiders?"
I shrugged, "They're kinda creepy but I'm not scared of them. The lie is that I missed my dad."
"Oof," Daisy grinned.
"Your scared of the zipline? You?" Uriah said, looking incredulously at me, "Even Tris isn't."
"Oi," Tris says, throwing a well aimed pillow that hit him in the chest.
"Okay, okay, okay." Uriah raised his hands, accepting defeat.
Daisy grins, "Simmons, your go"
Simmons
"Umm, I'm from London, I graduated at seventeen, and I once jumped off a plane."
They looked at each other, "You... didn't jump off a plane?" Will said
"Nope. I'm from Sheffield, not London." We had been educating them on geography, so they knew I was British, and they knew London was the Capital city, so it would be a safe assumption.
"Why did you jump out a plane?"
"Ooh lemme tell this one," Daisy jumped in, "so basically the Chitari, who invaded New York in 2015, left behind this infection thing, and Simmons was infected. You, like, explode when your infected for long enough, and Fitz and Simmons, who are like the smartest people in the planet-" I blushed at that, "-couldn't find a cure, and we were on a plane, and Simmons didn't want to explode on the plane and kill us all, so she jumped out. BUT Fitz found the cure and Ward- bad guy, we dont like him- jumped out after Simmons to get her and yeah..."
They all blinked. "Wow." Marlene muttered.
"Marlene, you go," Pepper said
Marlene
I furrowed my brow, thinking, "I fell off the zipline once, and broke my arm. I have a tattoo on my leg of a spider, and Uriah shot at a muffin on top of my head." (A/N I had to make a few stuff up)
Nebula said, "You dont have a tattoo on your leg."
"Well, I do, but it's not a spider."
"What is it?"
I rolled up my trouser leg (A/N I'm British) to show the small rose on my leg.
"Cool," Daisy said
"Nebula, you go," Christina said
Nebula
Easy I thought, "My father tried to kill half the universe. I'm half machine, and I'm an alien."
"Your not half machine," Tris answered
"Your right, I'm 75% machine." I smiled.
"So... your dad tried to kill half the universe? And I thought mine was bad," Four shuddered
"He was an evil titan who collected all the infinity stones and snapped away half the universe."
Wanda shuddered, and I put my hand on her shoulder. She still woke up screaming from nightmares of the soul world most nights, but they have gotten better over time.
"Tris, your go," I said.
Tris
I thought for a second, "I was shot in the arm, I was nearly killed by Four under mind control, and my full name is Tris Prior."
"You... weren't shot in the arm?"
I shook my head, "I was, my full name is actually Beatrice Prior."
Four put his arm around me, and I leaned into his touch.
"Wow. That's a whole story to unpack."
"Its long."
"We got time."
I sighed, "a few months after we got into Dauntless, everyone was injected with a... thing that controlled their mind. It didn't work on me, 'cos I'm Divergent. So we had to try and get everyone back to normal-"
"We?"
"- yes, me and Four. We had to get everything back to normal, but there were a few... complications and he ended up strangling me under mind control... then my mom and I ended up on Erudite base, and I got shot while trying to escape" I glazed over my moms death, not wanting to dampen the mood.
"Wow. That's some fucked up society," Tony breathed.
"Your turn, Tony," Four said.
Tony
I rolled my eyes, "I'm a billionaire, I'm allergic to strawberries and I stopped the end of he world."
"Your not allergic to strawberries."
"Your wrong, turns out I am (A/N Headcannon) The prevention of the end of the world was a joint effort."
"Cool."
We played a few more rounds, until deciding to go to bed. I was satisfied with the results of tonight.
