Superhero Damage Control [Comprehensive]

If Lucy knew what the president was up to, she would agree with both hands, because at this moment she and Bucky were arguing about Steve's whereabouts.

"I didn't understand, please repeat it again?" Lucy asked Bucky very seriously, as if she really didn't understand a word of Bucky's request just now.

Bucky rubbed his nose: "Lucy, I know this will bring you some troubles in life, but it's only for a while, we vacated the guest room and let Steve live for a while, and when he gets used to it, he Will move out on his own, man, he'll have a life of his own, and we can't raise him like a son."

Lucy raised her eyebrows, and Bucky grunted and rubbed over, resting his head on Lucy's lap: "Do you want a son of your own?"

"Go away." Lucy said viciously, but Bucky knew it was a tone of relief, and he cheered and sent Steve a text message. Lucy added, "Then in the next few months, I'm afraid we will Reduce some activities in bed."

Bucky froze.

"Can't we go out and get a room?"

"Ah, I don't know if Steve will set the house on fire because he can't use the electric stove when we're away, honey!" Lucy deliberately held her face and screamed, mocking Bucky's response to Steve. In response to Steve's over-concern, she lightly lifted her handbag, ready to buy some daily necessities for Steve, and returned when she reached the door, "But if you want Steve to join us, I have no objection."

Bucky's face turned blue, he now knew that he definitely pissed off his girlfriend, whether his girlfriend is still a child, it's so hard to choose! !

"Your toothbrush is blue, and the towel is blue. I bought you an electric toothbrush. Press the button on it—" Lucy pointed to Steve, who pressed the button on the electric toothbrush like a curious baby. button, there was a vibration that made him almost throw the electric toothbrush out, Lucy suppressed the urge to laugh, "Okay, now I understand why Bucky asked you to move here, you don't have us Really can't."

Steve quickly mastered the method of using an electric toothbrush, and used it with a little smug face towards Lucy: "These things can be mastered very quickly, no matter how advanced the technology is, it is just an extension of human beings."

Lucy nodded in agreement with this assertion.

Then Lucy taught him how to use the jacuzzi. Steve almost stayed in it and didn't want to come out. Then he changed into the SpongeBob pajamas that Lucy bought for him, watched how Lucy cooked with the induction cooker, and finally Lucy went all the way Serve him to bed.

"To your left is the desk lamp, which can be turned off with the push of a button."

"...We had desk lamps 90 years ago." Steve said speechlessly.

Lucy slapped her forehead: "I'm sorry, I'm confused, so-good night." She joked, "Need me to sing a lullaby? Let me tell you in advance, I don't know how to sing very much."

"Thank you, Lucy." Steve raised his glass and patted the fluffy quilt, "I've disturbed you enough, please don't close the door when you leave, I'm a little...I'm a little uncomfortable with being alone Wait, if I leave this light on all night, will you blame me for wasting electricity?"

It dawned on Lucy that Steve had a psychological shadow of being locked up in the pod.She couldn't help but want to hug him to comfort him, he was so distressing!

"You can pay as much as you want." Lucy closed the door slightly, leaving a gap.

She goes back to her bedroom and Bucky texts him.

Bucky: How are you doing?

Lucy: I want a son as cute as Steve. If I have a son with you, I don't think I can have one. Let's break up.

Bucky: Don't make such jokes :(!

Bucky: I might have to go back later, Tony was drunk and throwing up all over the place.

Lucy: How was your chat?Can he accept Steve?

Bucky: No, he said never let Steve show up in front of him, or he can't help but beat him up, let alone sign that hero deal.

Lucy: He understands it's not Steve's fault.

Bucky: I didn't say anything, making excuses for Steve at this point would only piss him off.But I think he understands, but not everyone can face it.He is willing to let go of his hatred, which is enough to make me admire, but the knot in his heart needs to be resolved slowly.

Lucy: I've changed my mind. I want a son like Tony. I don't think I can have a son with you. Let's break up.

Bucky: Please don't make jokes like that :)! !

Lucy smiled and put the phone down, she closed her eyes, Steve was fine, he wasn't the Winter Soldier.

everything is fine.

Lucy was awakened by a sound in the middle of the night. She put on her clothes, got out of bed vigilantly, and walked out of the bedroom.No one came in, and Steve's bedroom was still slightly open, but the lights were out.

Lucy walked in gently, turned on another bedside lamp, turned the light to the lowest level, and then she saw clearly that the original bedside lamp had fallen to the ground and was broken. Steve was covered in cold sweat. The whole person huddled together in pain, she didn't know what was reading in her mouth, she leaned forward to listen——

Suddenly the situation reversed, Steve opened his eyes, and with a speed that even a super soldier could not react, he pushed her onto the bed, pulled out a knife from under the pillow, and stabbed her hard. Lucy tilted her head, and the knife Inserted on the pillow, a strand of hair was cut off.

"Steve...it's me..." Lucy said tremblingly.

Steve's confused eyes gradually focused, he saw Lucy's face clearly, and relaxed his whole body: "Good evening, Madam (Madam)."

Steve leaned down and lightly grabbed Lucy's lips, Lucy felt a bitter, clear breath rushing towards her face.Before Steve can get any further, Lucy pushes him away.

"Steve!" Lucy yelled.

Steve finally woke up fully, he and Lucy heard the sound of the door opening at the same time, Bucky came back, Steve and Lucy looked at each other, neither of them knew what to do next, so Bucky poked his head in and looked When the old friend was asleep or not, what he saw directly was the scene in front of him-the sheets and quilts were messy, and his best friend and his girlfriend were lying on the bed in a posture that was about to have sex.

Lucy looked at Bucky and asked dumbfoundedly, "Bucky, do you want to join us?"

Two minutes later, Steve is fidgeting and circling the room, but Lucy can't help but laugh when he looks like a big boy just going through puberty frustration in his ridiculous SpongeBob pajamas.

"I want to leave." Steve said, he rushed into his house to pack his things, "I want to go to Washington to find Peggy, I went to see her, and the environment of her nursing home is quite good."

"Do you want those nurses to tie you to the bed so that you won't sleepwalking with knives at night? Don't be stupid." Lucy rolled her eyes and stopped him, and took the things he packed into the suitcase again. come out.

Steve looks like he's about to break down: "Lucy, I almost killed you."

And Lucy said calmly: "Okay, I know, I will remember to bring a shield next time I enter your room. Go back to sleep, and I will find you a new pillow."

Lucy gave Bucky a look, and Bucky quickly went to his bedroom to get a pillow.

Lucy immediately changed her face after he left: "Don't talk about the kiss."

Steve made a motion of zipping his mouth.

"But we're not done with it," Lucy said savagely, but before Bucky walked through the door, she gave another smile full of love, and Steve played the lost lamb.

After putting Steve to sleep again, Bucky sat on the sofa with a tired face, Lucy slipped into his arms, she waited for Bucky to say something, after a long time, Bucky Then he sighed: "Really? SpongeBob's pajamas?"

Lucy pouted. "Just thinking about him walking around in that pajamas suit makes me laugh all day."

Bucky scratches her nose, acquiescing to her prank.

Lucy got up very late the next day, and she was woken up by a burning smell.She quickly ran to the kitchen, and Steve pinched his nose and threw a lump of black stuff into the trash can, frantically not knowing which button to press to remove the fume.Lucy quickly took over, and Steve looked super upset.

"I want to make you breakfast," Steve said gloomily. "After what I did yesterday, I guess you're still in shock."

Lucy snorted softly: "You said it was the kiss or the knife?"

Steve looked around and made sure that Bucky was not at home: "Both of them, which one scares you more?"

Lucy thought about it for a while, but she really couldn't answer. She put the breakfast tray on the table: "When you kissed me, you called me madam, who was that?"

Steve's expression changed instantly.

Lucy said quickly, "It's okay if you don't want to answer."

Steve even touched his ring finger subconsciously, as if there was something there.

Steve took a deep breath: "I was married under the 'Red Room' arrangement."

Lucy was shocked by this information and didn't know what to say for a while.

Steve talks about his wife as if she's long dead: "There's no love, just an organized marriage, an alliance. 'Red Room' used to hypnotize me deeply, But that was cracked by me, and then they tried to brainwash me all with a machine, shred all my memories, and turn me into a killing machine. But that woman, I don't know how she did it, she took those pieces My memories glued together again, and gave it back to me, allowing me to find myself. But she..."

Steve looks at Lucy with his deep blue eyes, and through Lucy to someone else from decades ago.

"She's dead."

Very crisp ending.

Steve stopped stroking his ring finger, he left the restaurant without saying another word, Lucy was too embarrassed to continue asking.

She finished her breakfast in a hurry, and when she returned to the living room, she saw Steve sitting in the corner of their living room reading a history book. He praised everything that happened in modern history, nodding and frowning , if it is said that Steve's smiling appearance can fascinate thousands of girls, then his serious appearance is enough to capture the female creatures of the whole world.

"What you don't understand, you can ask me." Lucy collapsed on the beanbag sofa, she was not afraid to act as a teacher in front of Steve, she had a chip support in her head that could surf the Internet at any time.

"I'm very happy that the country I love has developed to this day." Steve held up the history book, "This is definitely a glorious history of human progress. We even established a breathing zone on the moon, which is incredible."

Lucy asked with interest: "Tell me about your three most incredible things."

"Uh... mutant equality, the Internet, and the abolition of the death penalty."

Lucy frowned when she heard the last thing.

"I thought you supported the abolition of the death penalty."

"Because I am a symbol of freedom and human rights?" Steve waved the modern history book, which is how he commented on himself, "At that time, as long as people committed serious crimes, they would be pulled into the electric chair, and then-- "

Steve made a trembling movement, and Lucy had never discovered that the original 90-year-old Popsicle had such a sense of humor.

"I'm against torture like that, but not the death penalty," Steve said. "Tell me why the death penalty was abolished."

Lucy rubbed her eyes: "Currently, nine states in the United States have abolished the death penalty, and New York State was promoted by mutants. The abolition of the death penalty was initiated by the leader of the mutants, Charles Xavier, in conjunction with professors and students from eight Ivy League colleges. a wave of reform."

Lucy took a book "The Past and Future of Mutants" from the shelf and threw it to Steve.

"In the 70s, Charles believed that the death penalty had gradually lost its meaning and become a tool for political parties to seize power and cover up political incompetence. To use an analogy, you are boiling a pot of water, and the water It came out because of the heat. The best thing to do at this time was to put out the fire, but the authorities used a pot lid - the death sentence - to suppress the boiling water."

Steve pondered: "Is he worried that this method will not solve the problem, but will cause the pot to explode directly?"

Lucy nodded: "But abolishing death is a small part of Charles' reform. What he really seeks is to make the authorities pay attention to all social contradictions and real problems, including the problems of mutants and ordinary humans."

"Ah, clever way." Steve admired.

“At that time, some radical reformists—such as mutant supremacists, black racists, and feminist activists—had a high crime rate, and the death penalty obscured their demands and only portrayed them as a group of inherently evil. Crazy. So that fuels deeper violence, more and more vicious attacks."

Steve seemed to be thinking about cause and effect like a good student. A bird flew in through the window, landed on Steve's shoulder, jumped on his head, and pecked at his hair. He didn't notice it at all.

"Is it effective after abolishing death? Have those murders and attacks really decreased?"

At this point, Lucy has to admire Steve's insight: "Promoting the abolition of death is just a political means, which forces the authorities to face up to the causes of conflicts and solve them at a deep level. It can solve murder, but I'll be honest, I think at the time, abolishing the death penalty was inevitable, but now... It's because New York State can't execute the death penalty, and the prison can't hold the most vicious people, we can't Will have to withstand attack after attack."

"Like clowns," Steve said.

"Yes, like the clown, but he is dead." Lucy made a cross, "I have been working on promoting the prison reform bill for super criminals since then. I hope there is a better prison that can strictly enforce the sentence, since They cannot be deprived of their lives, but at least they must be deprived of their freedom."

"Why not try a cryonic chamber?" Steve said.

Lucy froze.

Steve is as ordinary as eating and drinking, but he gave a quite innovative reform plan: "Like the one in Siberia, freeze the prisoners until the end of the sentence, 100 years, 300 years, and then put them Let it out, I believe that at that time they will probably face a brand new society, and they will not have the ability to do evil."

"Whoa," said Lucy. "Whoa—oh—you don't know what you just said, do you?"

"It's just a suggestion. I'm not like you who can push the bill. I'm just—what's that called, just talking about it."

"You can create a future with your mouth." Lucy excitedly went to her computer, ready to write down this idea.

Steve sat up and walked to the balcony. He grabbed the bird that was still resting on his shoulder, flicked his fingers lightly, and the bird flew away reluctantly. Steve looked downstairs, and a black car stopped at Lu Below Setta, a group of people who looked like Secret Service came out and entered Luseta.

After a while, the doorbell of the apartment rang, and a Secret Service came in. He showed his ID: "Mr. Steve Rogers, the President wants to invite you to Washington for an interview."

Steve turned his head from the balcony, evoking a vague smile: "It's an honor."
