A 👏🏻 FUCKING 👏🏻 CRIME 👏🏻
Marvel did stucky so, so dirty in so many ways, including not giving them more post-recovery sparring scenes!
#the trust there is in sparring makes it a love language#like#i know how capable you are#i know that you are amazing in what you do#i know that you could deal a lot of damage#but i also know that you think the same of me#i know that you wont actually hurt me#i trust that you wouldnt hurt me too much#i trust that you play fair#i trust you that you put effort in sparring and not go soft so that we could both genuinely improve#i trust you with my life#BUT ALSO#THE INTIMACY OF IT ALL#you get to know their bodies#you get to know their weak points#you know that they get to know your own weak points too#but you trust them still#(and if they end up making out at the end of the session then thats just a bonus)#SPARRING CAN BE SOMETHING SO PERSONAL TO ME#is it obvious#dhdhdhdvhdbdv#wheres the fic#sparring is a love language#my personal favorites
