All right! So I’ve got a (traced) drawing I found, which inspired this short scene.
Yep, this is dragon Crosshair. I originally traced this because I wanted to see how a shirtless dragon would look, what with scales and all, but his pose quickly became an opportunity to write something. It’ll be in first person, despite the fact that the majority of my stories are in third.
My eyes shoot open from another nightmare.
Hemlock’s claws still feel real on my face, his voice echoing through my head.
It’d be better to forget…….You’re useful to me, mind you, but what makes you think other dragons will care about you?
And you certainly don’t deserve her. She’d never love a murderer like you.
His voice mingles with other voices I’ve heard, echoing through my mind like ghosts taunting me.
Oh, trying to play commander again, I see? It appears you don’t remember the dismal failure you were last time.
He’s a traitor, Feather! He’s not the dragon you thought he was!
Ha! Look at the little silver-scaled freak! Thinks he’s special because he hatched on the brightest night!
“No.” I whisper, clutching my head with both hands and digging my claws into the side of my face, hoping the pain will drown out the words. It doesn’t. “Make it stop. Leave me alone. Leave me alone!”
Useless dragon.
Mayday, Cody, your only friends?
They’re dead because of you.
I bury my face in my talons, weeping.
So.
That happened.
My poor tortured boy…… (not actually my original character but who cares????)
@freedomwriter76 @godlyfantasy12 Tell me Riker and November haven’t gone through something like this. @theloonyone Although this is the dragon version of him, it’ll help your understanding of what goes on in his head in the character castle–like that one outburst.
And you three can tag whoever else you want.

@esther-c @godlyfantasy12 IKR????
@freedomwriter76 I keep thinking we should get Cross and Riker to talk someday…….they’d have a lot in common…..
(and yes, I use Feather’s nickname for him sometimes)
And on the subject of Steve…Aggh, he and Ryo are so cute together!!

@keilah-h WE DO!!!!!!!!! (he’s the older Riker right now in the castle, like, Korean War time Riker, so he’s been redeemed…but heh…his struggle with not being able to forgive himself is still continuing 😭)
(haha, I don’t think Crosshair would like it…but he can get over himself! XD🤣 And I understand. I call Bucky “Bucky Boi” and will occasionally call Steve “Stevie” or “Stebe” 😂)
IKR!? Together, they’re just…😍😍😍😍
@freedomwriter76 Yes!! At some point they’ll have to meet up.
And no, he will not like it. Only Feather’s allowed to call him that, and if he’s in a bad mood he may even get bothered at her, but I’m the author, so he has to accept whatever I say.
It’s nice to know that you nickname your charries too…….”Bucky Boi”….lol……

@keilah-h For sure!!!!!!!
Lol 😂 Yep, charries just have to accept whatever we call them as their nickname…they have to accept whatever we do to them 🤣
Haha…I certainly do!! XD lol, I love calling him Bucky Boi 😂
@freedomwriter76 Ha!
I’m not quite sure if any of my other “adopted” charries have nicknames, at least not ones I gave them.

Sooooooooo…I’ve been writing more Marvel today XD (surprise, surprise!!! 🤣)
And…I wrote a much less sad scene, woo-hoo! 😜😂
anywhooooo…this is from the 1st fic which I’m currently trying to write from front to back, and this is the most recent scene/chapter in the fic!!!! 😁😁😁
this was a lot of fun to write 😂🤣
Tony softly closed his laptop. He stretched his arms over his head and yawned.
That was enough work for the morning…for now.
He finished his cup of coffee, rinsed it out, and put it in the sink.
No one else was in the kitchen anymore. He was entirely alone. Which he didn’t mind at times.
Although he had no idea where everyone had disappeared to.
Tony stood, leaving his computer on the table for a bit.
The most problematic thing was knowing that he didn’t know where Ryo was. He hoped someone was keeping an eye on the baby.
Because Ryo seemed like he’d be a troublemaker. Tony could just feel it.
They were also going to start some of the more serious training with Meela and Mayla in a few days. Alex had powers too, but she seemed to be able to control them.
Ryo was just a regular baby though.
He heard a child-like, loud giggle. Undeniably Ryo.
Tony walked out of the kitchen and into the adjacent living room. He stopped right in his tracks. “What the-!? Wanda!?”
Nick Fury was floating through the air, surrounded by a glow, arms crossed as he floated in the air. “Stark, you better find a way to get me down.”
Wanda walked into the room and her eyes widened. “Fury? What…?”
Tony took a second look. Fury had a light blue glow around him…not the red of Wanda’s telekinesis.
Vision came in from behind Wanda, and the other Avengers were right behind him.
Clint smirked, leaning back against the doorframe. “Fury really looks like he’s having fun.”
“Not sarcasm right now, Clint,” Natasha elbowed her friend and teammate in the side, “Tony, what’s going on?”
“I-I don’t know…it’s not Wanda…”
Another giggle.
Tony turned to face Ryo. Ryo’s hair, usually black, was glowing light blue, and his eyes, usually dark brown, were glowing the same color.
He giggled and clapped his hands.
Mayla gasped. “Oh my goodness!!! He’s a super powered baby!”
“He has powers! That’s epic!” Meela cried, in agreement with her twin.
Alex smiled brightly. “Ahh! I can’t believe it! Ryo is super too!? That’s so cool! He’s also just so cute!”
Tony thought they were going to explode. He rolled his eyes. “We need to get Fury down.”
“Yes, you do.” Fury replied, unmasked anger and impatience in his tone.
“I’ll get him.” Steve offered, reaching to help Fury down.
Thor went over to Ryo, who looked over at him and smiled. “Ryo…I know you don’t like Fury-“
“Who would?” Bucky interrupted; arms crossed.
“Not helping, Barnes.” Tony retorted.
Bucky rolled his eyes.
“I know you don’t like Fury…but you have to let him down.”
“Yes, Thor is right Ryo. I know you are having fun, but you need to let Fury down.” Loki said with a smile, standing beside his brother.
Ryo tilted his head, confusion on his face, pursing his lips.
Fury kept floating, and Steve finally grabbed hold of his legs. “Got him.”
Ryo giggled.
Fury floated higher, picking Steve up off the floor.
“Ryo…you need to put them down.” Natasha said, eyes on Fury and Steve.
Clint raised an eyebrow, facing Ryo, who was giggling still. “Does he even know he’s doing it?”
“This is why I didn’t want this kid in the tower.” Fury muttered, arms still crossed, eyebrows furrowed together.
Maybe it would have been best to leave Ryo where he was left.
“I think he’s right.”
“Tony…” Steve sighed, still also floating through the air, still holding onto Fury.
Bucky walked over to Ryo, crouching down in front of him. “Hey Ryo. How are you doing kiddo?”
Ryo smiled and looked at Bucky, holding out his arms for Bucky to hold him. The glow in his eyes and his hair disappeared.
Steve and Fury fell and hit the floor with a thud, Fury landing on top of Steve.
Fury got to his feet as fast as he could. “This kid needs to go.”
“He has powers like us…powers evil people could use! You can’t throw him out into the-“
“I don’t want you in this tower either, Alexandria, so you better shut it.”
“But what if Ryo needs-“
Tony held up a hand, silencing Peter. “Stay out of this, kid. Fury’s right.”
Steve stood, brushing dust off his brown leather jacket. “Are you always going to take the easy way out, Tony?”
“Are you always going to fight every order you’re given? I thought you were a soldier.”
Steve stepped closer to Tony. “A good soldier knows what orders can’t be followed.”
“Ah, so you’re the perfect soldier…I see. Because you do everything right, don’t you, Steve? Captain America is the perfect little American hero that does everything right.”
“You know nothing about me Tony.”
Tony laughed and raised an eyebrow. “I don’t? I know more about you than you realize. I know that you’re Steve Rogers, I know you’re Captain America, I know you fought Red Skull, I know you fell into the ocean and was a Capsicle for seventy something years, I know Bucky is your best friend for reasons I will never understand. And do you know what I know most of all, Steve?” He stepped closer to Steve.
Their noses almost touched they were so close to each other.
Steve rolled his eyes. “No, I don’t. Do enlighten me, Tony.”
“I know that you’re nothing but a lab experiment, and that you’re trying to prove yourself by being a perfect little hero.”
“Hey!” Bucky cried, having set Ryo down on the couch, almost going forward, but Thor grabbed him and stopped him.
Steve glanced from Bucky and back to Tony. “You wanna prove yourself right now, Tony? Let’s see how well you can fight hand-to-hand.”
“I’m in the mood to fight you, Capsicle. Let’s do this.”
“I’ll get my uniform on, you put on your suit; let’s go a few rounds.”
Tony smirked. “Let’s do it.”
Ryo burst into tears, his loud cries carrying through the room. Loki scooped him up and bounced him in his arms. “Shh, Ryo…shh, don’t cry.” Loki soothed.
“You two are making the baby cry.” Clint noted, scolded, gently taking Ryo from Loki’s arms.
He quickly got Ryo to quiet down.
Steve faced Tony again. “I’ll go get my uniform on. Let’s just go a few rounds. Let’s see who wins.”
“I’m gonna beat you to a pulp, Steve. Prepare to lose.”
An alarm rang.
“Looks like we have a mission.” Sam noted. “Maybe we should hold off on this, Cap.”
Steve glanced over at Sam. He nodded. “Yeah. A mission is more important.”
Fury checked his phone. “It’s not a huge mission. We don’t need everyone. Rogers, you’re staying here.”
“Sir-!”
“No arguing. They’re just goons. The others can go. You’ll stay.”
“But sir-“
“No arguing, Rogers.” Fury snarled.
He turned to Tony and the others. “Head out. Do whatever needs to be done.”
Tony nodded. “Will do.”
of course an argument had to start…it happens all the time between Steve and Tony 😅🤦🏻♀️
