Tony was working himself up into a rant. Well, a bigger rant. It hadn’t taken much to set him off this morning and only been one person had said one thing and, well…
Steve wasn’t sure what had actually been said, but it was enough to make Tony mad and he was just off. He’d been ranting for nearly 5 minutes now, which was highly impressive – not that Steve was listening to what he was saying.
No, Steve was more focused on the way Tony’s whole body moved as he spoke, how his arms flailing to accent a point and how his hips swayed as he gestured wildly. Steve was also enthralled by the light in Tony’s eyes that showed his passion as his lips twisted into a number of different shapes to form his words. His cheeks were flushed and were only growing darker with every gasped breath as Tony’s words grew stronger and more enraged.
Today was going to be the day. The thought almost took Steve by surprise, his own brain making decisions for him that came out of the blue.
But it wasn’t out of the blue, was it? He and Tony had been dancing around this for ages, whatever ‘this’ was. There was only one way to put a definition on that, anyway, Steve told himself. He had to try.
Before he had really registered what he was doing, Steve was crossing the room with wide strides. As soon as he was close enough, Steve took Tony’s face in his hands and bent down ever so slightly, just enough to make his lips level with Tony’s.
The kiss was perfect.
Tony was taken completely by surprise so Steve was able to position him exactly where he wanted him, angling his neck back as his tongue swept across Tony’s bottom lip. It didn’t take Tony long at all to get with the programme and he gave up control willingly, his arms looping around Steve’s neck as their lips slotted together perfectly. The kiss was long and slow, deep and passionate, and Steve craved more. He pulled Tony closer to him by his hips, wrapping his arms around Tony’s waist as he groaned loudly at the delicious taste of him.
When they pulled apart there was silence in the room. Steve didn’t pay any attention to any of their friends openly staring at them as he kept his eyes firmly on Tony, their gazes locked together as Steve waited for Tony to speak first. It didn’t take long before Tony opened his mouth, but he only said one word.
“Yeah?”
Steve broke into a wide and slow smile and bent down to brush his lips against Tony’s once more. “Yeah.”
Awwwww
[id: screenshots of tiktok captions. the images say, “but the only reason we still love princess diana is because she did not have the time to disappoint us.”]
begging queer kids to read up on princess diana’s involvement with the community. yes, she was a rich, pretty monarch. yes, she died young.
but the reason why queer people love her is because she used her privilege during the aids crisis to advocate for sick queer men, when very few others would - much less someone of her status.
diana spent years advocating for the health and care of queer people with hiv/aids. in 1987, at the height of the epidemic, she opened the first specialist clinic dedicated to treating aids patients (the first clinic of it’s kind in the uk).
she also fought public hysteria by hugging and shaking bare hands with aids patients, at a time when aids was thought to be spread by skin to skin contact. not only that, she visited patients in the clinic regularly and even comforted them through their sickness.
and when queen elizabeth told her to try focusing on “something more pleasant”?
diana ignored her and kept fighting.
and this is only her work towards the aids crisis. she publicly called out the royal family, brought attention to numerous world issues, and was known as an advocate for empathy and kindness. she’s known and loved as the people’s princess for good reason
Nina Zenik is a whole another level of iconic. She read dark romances and said "I'll do enemies to lovers" and actually pulled it off.
NASA released the clearest images of Neptune’s rings in over 30 years.
broke: channing tatum sucks at a french accent
woke: gambit is cajun. cajuns just sound like that man. idk what to tell you. iirc he even got “sha” right (as opposed to the french pronunciation of chère). he doesn’t sound the way his dialogue is portrayed in the comics bc in the comics they just threw in some chère’s and some non’s and called it a day. channing tatum had the accent DOWN PAT
