Calming

                                    

                                          
Everyone in the team were, going through a slump. There were minimal missions so everyone is just sitting in the lounge room not doing anything. Finally Tony speaks up.
Tony: Why don't we do a team building exercise? 
Steve: That is a great idea, what is it? 
Tony: We all have to go and say the 1 thing that calms you down or brings you joy. 
Everyone agreed. Although you could tell that Loki and Bucky were uneasy. You knew what theirs was. It was you. You playing with Loki's hair or you singing to Bucky after a nightmare. Sometimes you would even have to do it together and they became good friends. They both had a past that they were not proud of, but they had someone who could help them and each other. 
You are practically the glue to the family. You speak out, you encourage them. However you do have pent up stress. Nothing really brings you calmness but your happiness is seeing your family smile. 
You were so happy for everyone that they were all talking. 
Tony: eating Ice cream and binging kid TV shows. 
Everyone started to laugh. 
Rody: really?
Tony: They don't have any good context and they just make me happy. 
Sam: did not see that coming. 
Yn: Hey, respect what he is saying. It can take a lot for someone to admit to something and especially the thing that calms them down or makes them happy. Ok. 
Everyone: yes yn
Yn: thank you. Steve? 
Steve: drawing 
Yn: if you don't mind me asking would I be able to see some? 
Steve: You would be interested in my drawings?
Yn: of course. I am sure that they are amazing. 
Steve: Sure. 
Nat: Ballet
Clint: really 
Nat: yeah. 
Yn: where did you learn? 
Nat: It was part of my training.
Looking down 
You knew what she meant and went up to her and hugged her. 
They went around the room and got to Buck. You knew he wanted no one to know what you did for him and you respected his wishes. 
Tony: So Bucky what about you? 
Bucky: boxing 
He lied. 
Thor: Brother?
Loki:Pulling pranks
You slightly chuckle at both of them as you know it is not true. You know boxing makes buck worse and pranking makes Loki feel horrible for what he has done. 
Nat: What about you yn?
Yn: mhhh
Snapping out of your thoughts. 
Nat: well what brings you joy and calmness. 
Yn: oh reading but mainly seeing everyone smile. 
You say smiling to yourself. 
Just as someone was about to say something a random alarm went off (kitchen) but for Loki and Bucky scared them and with Bucky's heightened senses it was really loud. 
You saw the panic in their faces. You ran to the kitchen and got rid of the alarm. You then went to where the God and super soldier sat. 
You forgot that the others were there. You take their hands in yours and place it onto your chest. 
Yn: just follow my breathing ok. 
They both nod. 
Everyone was shocked that you could get through to them. 
Peter: what? 
The three of you turn and face Peter and their breathing starts to pick up again. 
You grab their hands and pull them out of the room into a spare living area. 
You sit against a wall and Loki and Bucky know the drill. Loki sits with his head in your lap so you can play with his hair and Bucky sits on the other side and snuggles into your side while you sing a song to him. 
You got into a position that you knew too well. And started. You played with Loki's hair and you could feel his breath on your leg start to slow down. And you sang Bucky's favourite song. 
Back with the others. 
Steve: i think they lied to us about what makes them calm. 
Tony: FRIDAY show the cameras of where yn is.
FRIDAY showed them you sitting with Loki and Bucky. 
Everyone has tears in their eyes. 
You say this as they watch
Yn: remember when you came to my room one night and had a nightmare and needed to talk about it. Look how far you have come over the last 4 months. I am so proud of you. 
They both smile at you. 
Yn: Are we good to go back in?
With that they walked back inside and everyone was smiling. 
Steve: Why did you lie about your calming mechanism? 
Loki and Bucky answered at the same time: it is embarrassing. 
Yn: wow thanks not hurt at all. 
Playing as if I was hurt by the comment then laughing. 
Tony: It is good to have someone like yn. I think we all have that one person or therapist who are there for us.
