CHAT: "JOIN THE #WINTERELLA CLUB, FRM CLINT"

(Sam, Steve, Natasha, Wanda, Vision has joined)

Sam: Clint, are you seriously going to start a #WinterElla club? Bucky is going to kill you

Clint: Won't be the first time I'd almost been killed

Natasha: Well, I'm in, but if Bucky finds out I'm leaving

Steve: Same here. I'm pretty sure he wouldn't talk to me for a good hour.

Wanda: Just an hour?

Vision: I do believe that #WinterElla is a fantastic concept

Clint: So you're all in on the club? We're meeting once a week on Tuesdays to rant about cute things they did that week

Steve: But Ella is living in Africa and Bucky is here in New York. They haven't seen each other in at least a month

Vision: What an inconvenience

Wanda: We could 'accidentally' fly Bucky to Africa and refuse to fly him back

Natasha: I can make out with him in the hangar and then throw him in the nearest jet.

Sam: Clint or Steve, who's flying?

Steve: Not me, Bucky would freak out and look for large spans of ice in the water

Clint: I'll do it, then

Wanda: Yes! It's happening!

Sam: Wait, we're going to literally force Bucky into a jet, lock him inside, fly him to Wakanda, drop him off, and not come back so that him and Ella can be together?

Vision: Do you see a fault in this plan?

Sam: Nope. It's fantastic.

Natasha: Great. I'll go find him now and start making out with him. I'll get Pepper to pack his bags. We're tight like that.

(Natasha has joined out)

Clint: This is going to be great

Steve: What if Ella is mad? I hear things are working out pretty well in Wakanda.

Wanda: It's not like she'll KNOW it was us who sent him there

Steve: Well, Clint is flying the jet, and I'm sure Bucky will tell her what happened and why he showed up in Wakanda for no reason

Clint: Well, we're doing it anyways

Sam: Yep

Vision: Affirmative

Steve: But guys- even though Bucky and Ella are cool together, what if... what if Ella is happy there?

Wanda: Why are you so against this all of a sudden? You were fine earlier.

Sam: Yeah, bro, what up? You can't stand to see you're crush going to Africa without you?

(Steve has removed Sam from chat)

Steve: Guys, I have a feeling that this is a really bad idea.

Wanda: Why?

Clint: What did Ella tell you?

Vision: I sense panic among current users

Vision: Should I panic too?

Steve: She didn't tell me anything... but T'Challa messaged me a few days ago.

Wanda: IS SHE OKAY?

Clint: IS SHE HURT?

Vision: I SENSE THAT ELLA MIGHT BE IN DANGER

Steve: No, guys! She's fine. Better than fine, actually... T'Challa started talking about...

Wanda: No

Wanda: DON'T SAY IT-

Steve: MARriage.

Clint: NO! STEVE, NO! THEY MET LIKE, TWO MONTHS AGO! THEY STARTED DATING A MONTH AGO! WAS HE ASKING YOUR PERMISSION??

Steve: No, not yet, but he was considering asking in the near months!

Vision: Holy circuit boards...

Wanda: Steve! WHAT HAVE WE DONE?

Clint: DO NOT GIVE HIM A BLESSING. I REPEAT: DO NOT GIVE HIM A BLESSING.

Steve: Why shouldn't I? I talked to Ella about how she likes Wakanda, and she seems happy.

Wanda: ELLA IS BLINDLY IN LOVE!

Vision: I do see Captain's point. If she is happy, why shouldn't he let her get married?

Clint: SHE'S ALMOST 30!!! TOO YOUNG

Steve: So? I'm 99

Wanda: BUT-

Clint: Look, Steve, maybe you shouldn't have joined this club.

Steve: Well, I thought it was harmless. I didn't know you'd SHIP BUCKY OFF TO AFRICA.

Clint: Well...

Wanda: We go big or go home

Clint: ...YEAH

Vision: Wanda, if you were to get married, would you want someone to send someone else to ruin your relationship with your alleged fiance?

Wanda: SHUSH, VISION. THE ONLY PERSON I SEE MARRYING IN THE FUTURE IS A ROBOT.

Vision: Would you want that marriage to be interrupted?

Wanda: ...

Wanda: I need to stop Natasha before Clint flies away.

(Wanda has joined out)

Vision: I will help you.

(Vision has joined out)

Steve: Thank you, Vision.

Clint: I am conflicted.

Clint: I need a second opinion.

(Clint has invited Tony, Bruce, Peter)

Clint: Should Ella get married to T'Challa?

Tony: If it means she moves out, sure

Peter: MARRIED?!

Bruce: Isn't she like, 18?

Steve: She's almost 30

Bruce: ...

Bruce: I feel old

Peter: CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN TO ME WHY MY ELLA IS GETTING MARRIED?

Clint: You were the one who shipped #E'Challa

Peter: Yeah but...

Tony: They were MADE for each other

Bruce: Does she want to marry him?

Bruce: She'd be Queen of Wakanda

Peter: Oh my gosh, you're right

Peter: Here I am dressing up as a spider, and Ella is off becoming a QUEEN

Tony: Suddenly, I feel like I've accomplished nothing in life

Bruce: Sigh.

Bruce: Wait for it

Tony: ...

Tony: Ah.

Tony: My ego's back, I've actually done more than all of you ;-)

Steve: Ugh kill me

Tony: Gladly

Clint: GUYS, WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT THIS. T'Challa and Ella... GETTING MARRIED. I didn't think they'd take it this far? I thought it was just a phase! I should have taken her in like a daughter. Maybe this wouldn't have happened. YOU SEE WHAT YOU DID TO HER, STEVE? YOU ARE A HORRIBLE FATHER.

Steve: Well I'm not actually her father, and besides, I like T'Challa.

Bruce: I do too. He's a good guy. I just think that all this is a bit too soon. I don't want her to make the wrong choice.

Tony: You two sound like gay parents tbh lol

Steve: Stop using so many abbreviations, you can say "to be honest" and "laughing out loud" regularly

Tony: Why tf would I listen to you?

Peter: Ouch

Peter: Guys, is Ella actually going to say YES if purposed to?

Steve: Uh...

Clint: NOT ON MY WATCH.

Peter: Clint-

Steve: She is an adult. She can make her own choices.

Tony: It's not like any of us actually remember her. I went a whole week forgetting she existed until Bucky wandered into the kitchen all tired, and I was all, "wake ur ass up" and he was all, "fuck you" and then he told me told me she was in Africa.

Clint: What does that have to do with her being in Africa?

Tony: DUH Clint

Clint: ???

Tony: He probably misses her, you dumb shit. Even I can see that. You know, they didn't hang out much. But you know what they say- you don't realize how much you love something until it's gone.

Peter: :-0

Peter: I am starting to see why you all ship her with him

Steve: But she loves T'Challa!

Tony: Does she REALLY?

Bruce: Maybe we should... ask her about her feelings?

Peter: No one does that anymore

Tony: Yeah catch up

Clint: Look, I don't know about you, but when I got married I was worried sick about my family when I was gone. Ella is an assassin too- if she has kids...

Peter: They'd be in Wakanda, Clint. I think that speaks for itself.

Steve: Besides, it's her life. It's not like she can't choose Bucky or T'Challa herself. She's clearly chosen T'Challa, and now it's up to us to make sure Bucky didn't have feelings for her. If he did, we need to be there for him as he let's go of his love.

Tony: Or we could kill him, that puts him out of his misery

(Steve has removed Tony)

Peter: Is she too old to date me?

Bruce: Yes.

Clint: Yes.

Steve: Yes.

Peter: Dang it.

Steve: I just tripped over a rug at your absurd question, Peter

Peter: I am sorry

Clint: Nice going, grandpa

(Bucky has joined)

Peter: Oh shit

Bucky: Guys, I don't have time to stay long, but I'm hiding and I'm desperate. I've been avoiding this chat because of the title, but please... I need answers.

Steve: What is it, Buck?

Bucky: NAT WAS TRYING TO MAKE OUT WITH ME, AND I WAS FREAKING OUT AND KNOCKED HER IN THE HEAD AND SHE PASSED OUT. THEN WANDA CAME AND THOUGHT WE WERE GETTING 'BUSY' AND I STARTED TO FREAK OUT MORE. AND THEN NAT CAME TO AND STARTED TO FORCE ME NEAR A JET AND CALLING FOR CLINT. I RAN AWAY AFTER WANDA HELD HER DOWN- GUYS IS NATASHA SANE? WHAT DID TONY DO TO HER?

Peter: Mr. Stark didn't do anything! We were talking about E-

(Clint has removed Peter from chat)

Bucky: ???

Clint: Nothing.

Steve: Yeah, nothing.

Bruce: Don't even ask me.

Bucky: SHIT I THINK SHE'S COMING BACK WHAT DO I DO?

Clint: Lick her lose. She hates it.

Bucky: OKAY.

Steve: Hey, um, you haven't by any chance talked to Ella lately, have you?

Bucky: What? No, I haven't heard from her in a while

Steve: Are you sad that she hasn't contacted you?

Bucky: Uh, no. Why would I be?

Clint: Do you feel very desperate to see her again?

Bucky: No, why?

Bruce: Do you dream about her?

Bucky: Yes, once I had a dream that she said she didn't like Mini Wheats and I threw her out a window. That was yesterday night. I feel really bad, since she probably died.

Steve: Uh, okay then

Bucky: Well, I have a good hiding spot now after I licked her nose. I'm reading the rest of the chat I guess

Steve: uH

(Steve has removed Bucky from chat)

Bruce: Close call, huh?

Clint: Phew.

Steve: I better go. I need to contact Ella.

Clint: I need to find Natasha.

Clint: Btw, we're still meeting on Tuesdays, 4 o'clock sharp.

(Clint has joined out)

Steve: Bruce?

Bruce: Yeah?

Steve: Do you think Ella would let me be her child's grandpa?

Bruce: I have no doubt, Steve. She looks up to you.

Steve: :-) I've always wanted to have my own baby to hold. Maybe I can hold hers.

Bruce: I call second dibs.

Steve: Of course.
