Steve was contemplating everything he had beheld today, while surreptitiously watching his team. His team? Did he, he wondered, have the right to call these unique group, his team? Scoffing to himself, he pushed his empty basket away and lowered his head in exhaustion. A good leader draws from experience and he had none. With possibly the exception of Thor, none of them had any experience, yet they followed his orders, even Thor and more surprisingly, so did Tony Stark. Thor was/is a Norse…

Rather than shield puny Banner in a cocoon of darkness, an inkling of green lingered ever so possessively; a lack of…
