notes
Before I start writing the actual plot, I am going to state that Arabella is asexual. Asexual does not you don't want to date people. It just means that you don't have a sexual attraction towards people.
plot
Arabella wasn't born normal. She was born with special abilities, specifically known as terrakinesis. Her father trained her to fight, and use her powers for good. One day, she lost control of her powers, and her father ended up burried under an avalanche, dead. The loss of her control effected her greatly and she almost died. But before she could, she was found by Nick Fury. He saved her life, also hiring her as an agent for S.H.E.I.L.D. (Write in that Arabella has to hide her powers from everyone at S.H.E.I.L.D, the only person who knows about them is Fury.)
Instead of Natasha, Arabella was sent to recruit the 'big guy', aka Bruce Banner. She managed to convince him to come back with her.
It should be written that unlike almost everyone else, Arabella trusts Banner not to 'go crazy'. Later on, when he asks her why she's not scared of him, she should tell him the story of what happened with her dad. She should tell him that she also lost control and it changed her life forever.
After Banner 'loses control' on the ship, Arabella attempts to talk to him and call him down, instead of completely working, he seems to get a guilty look on his face before jumping off the ship.
During the battle, Arabella reveals her powers, leaving everyone (except Bruce who she already revealed her powers to) in shock.
Banner and Bellerose continue to get closer after the battle of New York, eventually ending in a confession of feelings and a kiss.
Be sure to include Bruce's insecurities throughout the relationship. Include how everyone time they kiss, or their kiss gets heated he stops before 'the other guy' comes out. Make sure you include the constant reassurance from Arabella, include her reminding him that she doesn't care that he can't have sex, and that she doesn't like it anyway because she's asexual.
For Age of Ultron, I don't have many ideas ready, if you need more ideas for it I'll come up with more though.
Raison D'etre means-my reason for living
This plot is honestly hard to let go, because I was so overly tempted to write it myself
