Pietro Maximoff has always been a prankster and, mind you, it wasn't living in the Stark Tower that would change that fact. Actually, it was mostly a huge factor that grew the frequency of his pranks and their originality (as much as their intensity to be honest). At first, he didn't do much: they had yet to get used to live with Stark and the others, he had to recovered from his amazing and heroic act in the war against Ultron and a broken arm (thanked to Wanda who didn't appreciate having almost lost her twin, but she was nice enough to wait until he got out of the nursery) and, to be honest, he was kind of afraid (yes, it could also happen to him sometimes) of how all those superheroes would respond if he ever give a go at some pranks against one of them.

If he has always been a prankster, he also has always been restless; even before being recruited by the Hydra, he had need to keep moving to spend his excess of energy. Therefore, the first three weeks after he was completely recovered had been awful for the speedy boy: life was calm in the tower, to much for his liking, and there was no super-villains to fight... He was boring to death!

- Don't be over-dramatic! has shut him Wanda when he complained.

Honestly, she has it coming and two days later, she was the first victim of her prankster of a brother. That was nothing to hard, just switching sucker and salt while she was making her coffee, looking to Natasha with whom she was talking about her love for the colour red. Of course, the face she pulled was a reward on its own, but the sight of some of the toughest warriors in the world (and outside, let's not forget Thor) giggling like some giddy teenage girls talking with their crushes... That, that was something Pietro has swore he would never forget. A few days later, Wanda avenged herself with the help of Steve ( Mister Perfect Soldier could be a rascal when he wanted to). It didn't really start a pranks war, much to Pepper's delight, but it brought some vivacity to the everyday life and they all enjoyed too much seeing one of them being the victim of another prank. It started with small things: a mug disappearing from their hands, being flipped over, switching the Tv program when someone was playing video-game, toothpaste in stead of mayo. Then it started getting bigger: stealing clothes (once Bruce was unable to wear any purple item for a full two weeks before Pietro put them back in his closet), transporting one of them to another room, closing this room, painting faces or bodies, wetting them, hiding their weapons, flipping them during their training session...

Pretty fast, the boy knew what to do to whom: the toothpaste was for Tony who never watched before making a sandwich, it was easier to paint Thor than to do any other trick, Bruce was pretty much frustrated by the lack of purple but would smile for days after having back his favourite colour, an angry and wet Black Widow was scary but was a good thing for his sister who could pamper the russian woman afterward, Wanda always fell for the salt in stead of the sucker, Steve would play along if the speedy guy tried to flip him over during his training, Sam (when he was there) would take everything since he always pranked back and Bucky would always got the nicest pranks for the only reason he would every time have the brightest smile (the guy has some serious self-issues and never really feel appreciated, except for those times).

But if Pietro has to choice only one person to prank for the rest of his life, it would be the one and only Clint Barton, also known as Hawkeye. It wasn't because the man was the easier to catch in his net, even if this was the younger tend to say when asked and nobody believed him on that point anyway. No, the reason was that his man made him pay in a very pleasant way when they were just the two of them on the last floor of the Tower, the floor they started to share when they decided that keeping each one of their bedrooms didn't make anymore sens now that Pietro spend all his night in the comfort of Clint's arms.
