Tony Stark's POV

That's really how it was never a moment to spare, especially when they begin to overlap.

Two weeks after the invasion; the band got back together, for a huge ass debriefing. In his snoozefest Fury outlined what we would be doing when there was no major threat, other than take down minor villains that seemed to be attempting to take over the almost every day. That was when the mad one eyed pirate dropped a huge bombshell, he wanted us to move into the hellicarrier and live together. What really surprised me was every no one objected, exempt me of course. Apparently it would make us quicker to respond and learn to work as a team. Well whoop-de-doo, guess the helicarrier is home now. Not if I had anything to say, but what about the other avengers.

Clint and Natasha already live there so it wouldn't be too different for how they normally live. Heck they would probably get better quarters. Guess that's a plus.

Steve lives is his apartment, owned by shield. Although it's his space, I get the feeling he won't be to apprehensive about moving. If it's going to be, "better for the team," then you can almost guarantee he'll be up for it.

Bruce is used to moving around a lot, it probably would be nice for him to settle down somewhere. Also compared to the other places he's been staying the hellicarrier mustn't sound that bad. The only issue there is the other guy.

Thor has been bunking with his girlfriend, (who knows how the hell he found her,) who lives in New Mexico. I guess that could be a problem. So I suppose I see where Fury is coming from, but that doesn't mean I have to like it.

Then there's me, and there is no way in hell that that will work. Me under Fury & co.'s ever watchful eye. No I don't think so. So many reasons of why it wouldn't work flood my mind, hoping to form a useful argument. How am I the only one who had an issue with it? I could refuse, but I really don't want to start anything else, or give them reasons to hate me more than they already do.

I have an idea, and it just might work. Now to get them on board.

-LINEBREAK-LINEBREAK-LINEBREAK-

I strut towards Fury's office, trying to come across dominate as I can. My proposition may be risky, but I'm pretty sure I can convince him, after all for once I came prepared.

"Stark, you wanted to see about the housing plans," He says as walk in. "You have little choice judging by how the WSC has ordered the Avengers to live as emergency response unit." This interested me, why did the WSC care where I slept. Didn't they have bigger fish to fry? I made I note to research this later, and by research I mean hacking.

"No, I'm not here for that," Fury sends me a sceptical look. "Us living together is a great, well not great but, understandable idea. Just why the hellicarier? I don't think really that we could live here."

"And why is that?" he asked flatly.

"A lot of bad stuff happened here in the invasion, partially with Agent. I don't think that's the kind of stuff you want Agent Barton to be reminded of while he recovers. As well as Dr Banner current situation wouldn't be assisted by this environment. Everyone could use with some new scenery. "

"What are you proposing exactly, if not the hellicarrier than where?"

"Stark tower. Half of it has already been destroyed so remodelling for the avengers would be simple. I could easier provide for there needs."

"I see, this could work. Although the WSC mightn't approve. If want to start some rough plans it could help, there isn't much time, we would have a couple mouths at most. We'll discuss it with the group at tomorrow's meeting." I nod my head and begin to walk toward to door.

"One more thing Stark. Since when did you start caring about your teammates wellbeing," Fury questions neutrally. I knew a question like this would come up.

"I don't, the hellicarrier is not the place I want to live," I reply cold as ever.

All over all it seemed to work.

-LINEBREAK-LINEBREAK-LINEBREAK-

The meeting went as well as I had planned, the other avengers didn't really care where they stayed. Most of them, (namely Natasha and Clint, even Bruce to some extent) still didn't approve of this whole scheme of living together. What could they do, orders are orders.

Fury assured us that until the housing plans were finished business would continue as usual. Dam, I didn't like the sound of that. As it had been planned for us to move into the hellicarrier next week, Fury didn't want us to lose oh so precious bonding time he wanted the plans finished ASAP. Despite the fact it would to take a while to remodel, I guess I didn't have a while.

When Bruce approached me after me meeting, I was surprised. He took up my offer for a place to stay while the renovations took place. Shield hadn't wanted him on the hellicarierr so they hadn't offered his a room. The idiots, did they really think that was a smart move. Oh well I guess he would get to live the high life with me.

Even Pepper approves of me letting Bruce stay here. She said I was being compassionate and learning to play well with others. Isn't that nice. I don't really believe her, I mean I will always be a jackass. Pepper also likes Bruce himself; she said he was responsible, and made him promise to make sure I stayed alive when she wasn't around. I suppose she was right, I mean how else would I have ended up like this? Dam I love Pepper.

I know Bruce doesn't want to hurt us, but seriously the way he tip toes around is ridiculous. It's as if he thought disturbing us is some horrible crime. I brought him here to relax without fearing himself, he should do so. After all he did save the world not too long ago, trust me that's exhausting.

Wasn't that cringe worthy. Please tell me what you thought.
