College AU
~~~
Getting into College is difficult. Add in the fact it's the most prestigious hero academy in the whole world and you've got yourself quite the journey ahead. You weren't magical or super badass, you weren't a god nor a super genius. B...
"Welcome to interrogation 101, basic name, I'm aware," the woman dashed her name across the board. "I am professor Maria Hill, you shall only call me Professor Hill, call me Maria and I fail you instantly,"
She was strict to no end but she had a certain caring flare. Obviously caring of her student's outcome at the end. Obviously she was part of the US Armed forces for sometime before rising in ranks and earning a place in SHIELD.
Then she earned a place here via Director Fury who runs the academy and SHIELD; why else would it be call Fury Academy?
All this from her stance and posture... god you were getting better and better at this!
"This course will consist of theory in the first term, then practical in the second. Switching will be important to this course as theory and applying the theory will make you a good interrogator, understood?"
Everyone nods as she starts to go on about the course details and schedule of assessments.

"Weaponology, welcome, class, I am not a rabbit, build-a-bear or rat, I am a racoon and your professor, you will call me Professor Rocket or you're going to get a knife to the leg,"
Racoon, yet not artificially modified on earth... From outside this solar system on some lone planet of course. Obvious son of some sort, adoptive most likely and no immediate family still in contact.
Big softy no doubt from the small packed lunch with a child's hand writing on the front. So son it was...
"This class if more theory, but we will be taking our lessons outside the classroom and into the arena!" He cackles with a toothy grin.

"How was your first day?" Wanda quipped when she passed.
"I'm going to spend the rest of the evening doing this stupid assignment while eating my woes away,"
She laughs lightly before tossing you a chocolate bar. "You may need it more than me,"
"We are now best friends, you will never escape my affections," you hug her tight and kiss her cheek. "I will kill anyone and everyone who harms you," ruffling her hair you run off to your room.
Shutting the door behind, you dug into the chocolate as your papers were sprawled out on your desk. Head stuck into the work you went through a few hundred positions with each passing minute as wrapper after wrapper piled up in the trash.
"Done and done!" Falling back off your chair and hitting the floor with a thud, you groan in pain as Steve rushes in.
"Are you ok??"
"Quite fine, Rogers," you mumble as he helps you up. "Sugar crash and too much homework,"
He peers around the room with a smile. "Nice set up,"
"Thanks, can I see yours? Maybe we might find something in common,"
He shrugs and tags you along. "It's a bit of a mess... art is everywhere so don't mind that," He wasn't wrong. Sketches lined the walls, each random yet so beautiful and precise.
"Woah!" he blushes lightly as you rushed around to admire each piece. "You are so talented, Steve!"
"Thanks, Y/n... You know, other than Buck you're the first one to see this," his smile was faint yet full of warmth. "Buck and I are going out for dinner with Sam, wanna join?"
"Am I paying?" you chuckle.
"Depends, are you going to eat a lot?" Barnes leans on the door frame.
"I don't know, soldier, what are we eating?"
"Pizza,"
"If it's pizza why are we going out?" you tap your watch. "Time is money, plus it'll be fun to watch a movie,"
"Pizza date?" Bucky holds out his arm.
"With three good looking men, don't mind if I do," you flirt back making him grin.

"There he is! My darling magic boy!"
"That's the third time she's said that," Sam whispers to Steve.
"Hey, Y/n, ever think about focusing on real life guys and not fictional ones?" Bucky nudges you.
"Find me someone like Howl then I might just," you huff.
"Am I not good enough, doll?" Barnes wraps his arm tighter around you.
"More than, Soldier, but I think that girl Anna was giving you quite the goo-goo eyes,"
"Anna Watson??" Bucky's eyes lit up. "Give me a second," he rushed out the living room and down the hall to Anna's floor.
"Oh, how cupid would be jealous of my match making skills," admiring your nails you turn to Sam and Steve. "Alright, Steve you got Peggy Carter floor 5, Sam you got Leila Turner floor 5 as well, good luck~"
You watched as Sam pushed Steve along with him. The main door slammed shut as you ate another slice of pizza and sat back.
"Oh, Howl, you're so attractive and for what?"
"I heard Howl?" Natasha peeked her head around the corner with a soft smile. "Mind if I join?"
"A woman with taste, by all means," you slide over to make space for her.
