~Well guys I have started a new story. I saw the Avengers movie and it was F***ing FANTASTIC! I had to write a story for it, even though I know a lot of people will be doing that but oh well. Basically this will be Marvel University, but the main characters are the Avengers (Black Widow will come in soon but not yet) with other Marvel characters coming in for cameos. Loki will come in later too, but I want it to be a surprise. This will be awesome and reference both individual characters movies and the Avengers movie. I hope you like it, enjoy!
Clint sighed in frustration as he looked around the large campus that was Marvel University. Even though he had gone to orientation he still was confused as to where his dorm was. All he knew was that it was near the edge of campus, was one of the apartment styled buildings, and that all his new roommates had been there at least a semester longer than him. This was his first time going here; he had tried the DC University but is sucked so he transferred over to Marvel. Also there was another guy who had totally stolen his thunder when it came to archery, and the guy wasn't even that good! Plus he looked like Robin Hood, only lamer. Clint turned on the spot, maybe the dorm building was behind him?
"Need some help, friend?" asked a kind voice from behind him
Clint turned to see a blonde boy slightly taller than him, who was dressed in muddy soccer gear.
"Yes, actually." Said Clint, sighing in relief, "I need to find the Stark dorm building. I've just transferred here, and this is apparently where I am staying."
"Great! That's where I live! I'm Steve Rogers."
He held out his hand and Clint shook it.
"Clint Barton, the new and confused student."
Steve laughed.
"I'll show you where it is, and then we can get the other guys to help bring your stuff in." said Steve as he began to walk towards one of the brick buildings on the right.
Clint followed him quickly, trying to memorize where it was in relation to the rest of campus, and trying to keep up with Steve's quick pace. When they reached the red door with the golden knocker, Steve took out an ordinary key and opened it up. Clint was not necessarily the richest guy around, but his family did have a lot of money, which was why he was able to move into a nicer dorm building than other people who were just starting at Marvel University. It was no surprise then when the door opened to reveal a very well-furnished living room area, with a huge flat-screen TV and speaker system, and lots of chairs and couches. Clint could tell that each chair or couch was claimed or occupied by a member of the dorm, house, apartment, thing. One recliner had a lot of mechanical gadgets, pizza boxes, and what looked like beer bottles lying around. Another one had a lot of sciency books and journals, most of which seemed to be about different types of rays, or radiation. There was a gigantic armchair with some furs covering it, and a few books that looked to be in Nordic. There was also a smashed coffee mug next to the chair. One out of the two couches had a duffle bag full of various sports gear in it, there was also a patriotic theme that Clint saw going on. The cup on the table had an American flag, the blanket on the couch was an American flag, and the books that weren't text books were about America in some way.
Steve noticed Clint staring intently at the living room.
"Of course, since we practically live down here it is kind of messy, but we're working on it! It's also a good thing that there were an odd number of couches and chairs, because there is one left over for you!"
He pointed at the empty couch, which looked neglected and bland next to the other furniture pieces that were covered or surrounded by all sorts of things.
"Sweet." Said Clint
Steve led him to a doorway that led into a spacious kitchen that was also well furnished. All the appliances were the newest kind, and there was even an island with stools around it in the middle of the kitchen. Clint whistled.
"Yeah, Tony's dad donated a lot of money to the University, so they named this building after him and Tony was put in here when he came along. Thanks to the fact that his family is one of the richest in the world, he was able to make everything look so nice."
Clint thought that Steve was talking about it a bit too casually, but didn't say anything else.
"The stairs are just off of the living room, you room is the third door on the right. Here, why don't I-"
But before Steve could finish, the front door banged open and three people entered noisily into the room. One of them was very tall, with blonde hair that went to his shoulders. He was also extremely buff, like Steve, and was carrying a weird looking hammer for some reason. The loudest of the group was shorter guy with messy dark brown hair and a scruffy beard and mustache. He was grinning at something he had just said to the tall blonde, who looked very confused. The one behind them was pretty quiet, about the same height as Clint, and had shaggy brown hair and rectangular glasses. The trio stopped when they spotted Clint and Steve.
"Hey, Steve-o!" called the short, messy haired brunette, "You got here before the rest of us. Shame on you, we were supposed to come in together! Reunited after winter break!"
Steve just grinned and shrugged.
"I was early, and I also needed to show our newest roommate around the place." He said as he clapped a hand on Clint's shoulder.
"Oh right, I heard we were getting a new roommate." Replied the one with glasses
He had a calm voice that just sounded intellectual. Clint smiled a bit and introduced himself.
"Hey, I'm Clint Barton. How's it going?" he waved slightly
"I'm Bruce Banner." The one with the glasses held out his hand to shake Clint's.
"I am Thor Odinson, it is truly good to meet you Clint." Said the tall one with the long blonde hair. Clint thought his hand would be crushed in Thor's strong handshake.
"I'm Tony Stark, I like making cool stuff, partying, and sex." Said the messy haired one
Clint did not know what to say to this at first, but shook Tony's hand anyway.
"Welcome to the Avengers Mansion!" said Tony in a grand announcer voice, sweeping his arms wide so as to gesture to the whole building.
"What?" asked Clint in confusion
"It's just a nickname that we came up with for the place." Steve supplied helpfully
"Because "Stark Hall" has such a great ring to it!" said Tony, his voice dripping in sarcasm
"No one but its occupants may call it Avengers Mansion." Said Thor seriously
Bruce just smiled slightly and shook his head.
"Well Clint, what do you think?" asked Steve
Clint looked around, and then smiled.
"I think that it's time to start moving in!"
~Virtual brownies for those of you who could guess which chairs and such belonged to which characters. Even more virtual brownies to those who saw some movie references in there. Black Widow I think will be in the next chapter, she wasn't in this one because Clint is moving in, and she is a girl and therefore cannot live with the guys. Even if she's more manly than some of them ;P Reviews are love, so send some my way so that I can get good feedback or the Hulk will get mad and smash you! There might be some pairings or some slash later on, I don't know (I personally like Widow/Hawkeye after the movie) so let me know what you think or if there are some pairings that you would like to see.
Grazie!
