I wrote this and I don’t know if I can use it in any of my WIPs. So here, have it here, for Bisexual Awareness Week.
2400 words of Steve Rogers on a talk show dealing with manufactured shock value and what in fact his superpower really is.
Steve shifted uncomfortably in his seat, eyeing the girl on the couch next to his with no small trepidation. She was a pop star of some kind, a wholesome child star turned “bad girl”, and she was wearing what amounted to pasties and glitter booty shorts, her short hair spiked and her face gaudily glittered.
He’d been given instructions, and had showed up dressed as they wanted– jeans, and a t-shirt, and a buttoned shirt open over the top of that, with no logos on anything, plain leather shoes, no hat. The shirt was white, the buttoned shirt a blue plaid, the jeans blue, no loud colors. He’d added a red belt, because he’d figured someone was going to make a crack about his monotone outfit at some point. Being prepared for a punchline made it easier.
He had known as soon as he’d walked in and seen her that this girl was meant to shock him. She had given him a limp handshake and a languid-to-poorly-conceal-nervousness once-over, and he’d not squeezed her hand too hard and watched her decide he was judging her, as he carefully kept his eyes squarely above her neck and tried not to show any expression at all.
He was already exhausted.

Reblogging this like, six years later, because I never did use it for anything but I still really like it.
It stings a little though, to read all the bits where I was like “no sensible person would do this” and then realize those are all plot points they used in future MCU films. Oh, Marvel. Sigh. (Your picture was not posted)
