Fast Eddie's | Saturday Evening

Wanda had promised Thor merriment, and what was more fun than drinking and bowling? It hadn't taken long to explain the game to Thor, but it did take some coaching to get him to not hurl the ball down the lane at full strength.

Luckily Wanda had the power to fix those first couple dents on her own.

[Opeeeen~~, pls hold for some PW OCD~~]

If you want to do stuff without Wanda or Thor bothering you.

Which was the name Thor and Wanda had come up for their team. They weren't the best at coming up with names.

Don't trip on any of the numerous cases of Asgardian ale. If you were worried, Thor had no intention of going through all of them tonight, he had plans to leave some for Steve and Bucky.

Sir, that's my emotional support zombie witch.

Wanda wasn't bowling so much as doing damage control. It was still fun, and she was nursing a (regular, non-Asgardian) beer while she watched Thor rough up the place.

Thor still didn't understand the point of the game, but it was fun throwing the balls around. The more ale he drank the sloppier his rolls got, but Wanda seemed okay with fixing any damage.

Zack had suggested bowling as a good team bonding activity and Goose knew this was most likely going to be a bad idea, because the Galaxy Rangers going anywhere was an invitation for a disaster. He had never been bowling before so he was having the rules explained to him before they could begin.

“So you just throw a ball at some pins and knock them down?” Goose was saying, sounding a bit sceptical.

Annie had campaigned for their team to be Girls Get It Done, and had been summarily shot down by a single look from Maggie.

She was also enjoying a totally normal, non-Asgardian beer, though she would probably be coerced into a few of these -- since unbeknownst to Annie, someone had gone and made a promise about getting her drunk.

Of course Maggie was an outstanding bowler. She had fucking superpowers.

The trickiest part, honestly, was keeping from overdoing it Thor-style and heaving a ball into a wall or breaking a machine or something. Particularly after she got into the Asgardian ale.

"Holy shit, this stuff packs a punch," she observed, clearly delighted.

Maybe she'd kind of needed a little vacation, sure. Fine.

"The best Asgard has to offer!" Well, had to offer since it didn't exist anymore. "You bowl very well, Your Majesty!"

She had broken less stuff than he had, so he thought that meant she was better.

"Thank you," Maggie said, having had enough ale to give a gracious, queenly bow. She grabbed a ball once she had straightened up again, passing it from palm to palm like it was a beanbag. "I've played a few times before. It's a traditional Earth game."

All games played on Earth were traditional Earth games, probably.

"It is a merry game! The alley could be sturdier, however." Thor chugged the rest of his (third or fourth) ale and smashed the glass onto the ground. "More!"

He looked down at the broken mug, with a clear 'whoops' look on his face. Then a swirl of red appeared and the mug pulled itself back together again and floated in front of Thor's hand. "Thank you, Wanda."

He kept forgetting that was frowned upon in Midgard.

"Cool trick!" Maggie called appreciatively over to Wanda, finding that just kind of delightful. "We need one of you around."

To Thor, she added, "None of my teammates can fix anything, but they break so much shit. We're always setting up scaffolding 'cause someone went through a wall."

The conference room still smelled like fresh paint.

"Throwing people in walls can be fun!" Though, yes, it could cause quite a mess. The Avengers had their share of destruction of property.

Thor picked up a bowling ball and approached the lane, sliding a little bit as he did so. "I still do not understand the point of these shoes."

"They're the great equalizer," Maggie told him wisely, taking a swig of her own ale. "Everyone looks like a dork in bowling shoes. Plus it might have something to do with the lanes? But mostly it's to make sure no one ever feels too attractive while bowling."

Steve flopped down next to Wanda with a laugh as his Thor went off and tried each bowling ball, declaring each one unworthy.

"Well, this is exhausting."

"Hail!" Thor said with a smile. "I am Thor." He winked. "The better looking Thor."

"I think we look rather dashing," Thor joked. He took a few steps back before taking his shot, sending pins flying. "Head's up!"

Wasn't the first time he had to shout that this evening.

"Understatement," Wanda said. "It was very strange making coffee this morning with a god snoring on my couch."

"There's two of you?" Annie, squealing was not becoming of a superhero. Have a touch more chill, please. "Oh, man, I love the multiverse. I'm Annie! Hi! My friend Maggie and I are on a team kind of like the Avengers."

She'd gotten good at giving kind of a Spark Notes version of things.

Steve laughed. "He was in the guest room, but the snoring carries."

Steve gave her a toast with his Asgardian ale, so this was already off to a good start. "How's your weekend going?"

"It is an honor to meet a fellow band of warriors," Thor said with a smile and a regal nod. "Are you well acquainted with this game of strength and skill?"

He was very much not.

"For some reason I thought snoring would be something gods were exempted from," Wanda said, taking a sip of her beer. "I'm trying to patch whatever holes are being made here tonight, but I think we might owe the owner an apology later."

"Nice," Maggie commented appreciatively, plucking her ball back up so she could wander over while the pins were reset. (Maybe magically, what up Wanda.) "So how did a freakin' Norse god end up on a superhero team, anyway? All of ours are people born here. Far as I know, anyway."

The only reason she knew Black Noir was human was because he was allergic to tree nuts, but for all she knew, that was also an allergy shared by aliens or something. ~~Or clones, maybe.~~

"My brother made a play to rule the planet." Totally normal answer right there. "That is how I met Tony Stark and Steve Rogers."
