"Alright," said Sam as he grabbed the popcorn out of the microwave. "Team Cap or Team Iron Man?"

"Is that even a question, Samsquatch?" Gabriel said, amused. He hugged his tall boyfriend from behind, standing on his tiptoes to kiss Sam's cheek. They were months late, but they were finally settling down to watch Civil War. "Team Cap. Definitely."

They went to the couch and sat down, cuddling up as Sam turned the movie on. Comic book images flashed across the screen as the word "MARVEL" took form. Sam leaned his head on top of Gabe's. The angel snuggled closer to him. The movie started, and they fed each other popcorn as they watched the screen with wide, intrigued eyes.

"Wait, Bucky? That guy knows about him?"

"I think so... Wait a minute - is that a bomb? Holy--!" Sam and Gabe both flinched as Wanda swiftly diverted the bomb into the nearest building, where it immediately exploded. "Shit!"

They kept watching. It got dark in the bunker, but they didn't mind. Things were just beginning to look up; and then, onscreen, a voice spoke from nearby.

"Goddammit, don't go look," hissed Sam.

"They can't hear you, Samwich."

The stranger began to play a video. Steve and Bucky were sharing worried looks, but Tony didn't look at them. His eyes shone with unshed tears. The video ended in static, and the scene was silent and tense as everyone waited to see what would happen.

"I don't know what that was, but I have a feeling it wasn't good," said Gabe under his breath.

Then the fighting broke out, and when Tony roared, "He killed my mom!" Sam and Gabriel both covered their mouths in shock. "Heavenly crap," whispered Gabe. "Holy guacamole."

At the very end, when Cap dropped his shield, Gabe was sniffling. "This isn't happening. This can't be happening. Cap can't lose his shield, he can't."

The credits began to roll. The movie was over and so were the Avengers. Gabe buried his face in Sam's shoulder. "Okay, feels."

Sam ran his fingers through the angel's hair. "Still Team Cap?"

"I don't know, Samantha. Cap was being kind of an asshole. And I mean, Tony did lose his parents - you and I both know what that's like. But Bucky didn't deserve all that crap either." Then, lifting his head, he managed a remorseful smile. "Halloween's coming up. Am I the only one thinking Stucky costumes?"

Sam smirked, leaning down to kiss his archangel softly on the lips. "No you aren't."
