Playing Cupid Pt 3: The Aftermath

Warning: Homophobia

3rd Person POV:

Everyone stopped what they were doing, making their way to the living room.

Bruce left his lab, Thor and T'Challa stopped their extremely in-depth discussion about their kingdoms and the democratic treatment of their people. The teens, plus Loki and Pietro (who had joined them in watching vines for the past half hour) came out of Peter's room.

 Tony and Strange begrudgingly stopped their (not induced by mistletoe or arrow) make-out session.

 Nat and the super soldiers came from the gym, Wanda put down her book that she had returned to and Clint & MJ dropped from the vents.

"Is this everybody?" Clint asked, checking to make sure everyone eventually made it.

"OK, SO!" Clint began, "We got some pretty interesting ships." he paused, looking through the pictures he took and quietly adding "I think all of them were gay actually.." "All but 2" MJ corrected.

"We got some very cute photos, and by the way, FRIDAY took pictured for mistletoe kisses so don't go thinking we missed that." there were a couple of groans, and a few snickers from that.

"PLEASE TELL ME YOU SHIPPED THE OLD MEN!?" Someone -Clint was 95% sure it was Tony- called out "you bet I did!" Clint responded. The two soldiers had begun to blush like tomatoes, but everyone else started clapping, not a slow clap or a sarcastic clap either, it was a full on standing ovation, MJ interrupted with "with the exception of Thor, those two are the biggest targets, probably not a massive challenge for an archer who's good enough to fight along super soldiers, secret agents and gods." 

Nat then corrected her, saying "technically he's also a secret agent, or at least was. No one really cares though because all he does now is that" she gave Clint a look, and everyone turned around to see him holding his cupid bow like a stone baby-cupid water fountain statue.

"its just disappointing that bird brain didn't get hit." Stark said, prompting Nat and Bucky to say in tandem "Which one?" "both"

The two raptor-inspired superheroes casually responded, "we did." Everyone turned to look at MJ and she just smirked.

The cupids compiled both their and FRIDAY's photos and had her scan them all so they were digital as well as print outs. "Public embarrassment time!" Clint yelled as a screen appeared, seemingly out of magic. 

"oh god" "please no" and "well shit" were some common reactions among the group, as well as evil laughter from Clint as well as Scott and Pietro, who no one even bothered trying to shoot.

That wasn't because of their powers and dodging ability, but rather because no one needed to. They were already a couple.

"Just saying, we didn't ship anyone with multiple people, you each got one valentine."

"Starting off strong, we got the narcissist 'geniuses' with matching facial hair." Clint announced as the image appeared on the screen. "damn, we're hot!" Tony remarked, while Peter looked quite uncomfortable and Steve was bright red.

"next." MJ said, letting FRIDAY know to change the slide.

"OOHH, SAM, LOOK!" "#Lovebirds!" Harley called out, causing everyone  to start laughing, even Pepper. They continued a similar pattern, getting to the second Ironstrange one and -as it turned out- Clint was not the only one to find the twinning goatees odd, Peter pointed it out as well, though very uncomfortable at the picture of his father.
