🛡️ Steve Rogers
Full Name
Steve Rogers
Alias
Captain America
Age (Age of Ultron)
Appears to be about 30, though chronologically over 90 due to being frozen for decades.
Affiliation
Avengers
---
✦ Appearance
Steve stands about 1.88m tall with an athletic build developed by the Super Soldier Serum.
He has short, neatly styled blonde hair, expressive blue eyes, and a posture that is almost permanently upright. Even when relaxed, he radiates discipline and confidence.
His uniform reflects exactly who he is: practical, durable, and designed to protect rather than impress.
He never needs to raise his voice to be noticed.
His mere presence is often enough to calm a room.
---
✦ Personality
Steve is a deeply good man.
Not perfect.
Good.
And there is a huge difference.
He doesn't believe being a hero means winning every battle.
He believes it means standing back up every time the world tries to knock you down.
He is patient.
Observant.
Honest to a fault.
He struggles to lie, even when doing so would be easier.
He possesses immense empathy and always tries to understand before judging.
He doesn't seek to impose authority.
He inspires it.
When someone is scared, Steve doesn't give orders.
He stands by their side.
When someone makes a mistake, he doesn't humiliate them.
He helps them rise.
He has a strong sense of responsibility and often carries more weight than he should, convinced that protecting others also means taking on part of their burdens.
---
✦ Strengths
Natural leadership.
Bravery even in the face of impossible enemies.
Great tactical intelligence.
Ability to remain calm under pressure.
Unwavering sense of justice.
---
✦ Flaws
Steve can be incredibly stubborn.
When he believes something is right, it is very difficult to make him change his mind.
He also finds it hard to accept help.
He is used to putting himself in danger if it means someone else might get out alive.
He often carries guilt that doesn't belong to him.
---
✦ Abilities
Thanks to the Super Soldier Serum, he possesses physical capabilities far superior to a normal human.
His strength, speed, stamina, and reflexes border on human limits, but what truly makes him a hero is his combat experience and strategic capacity.
His main weapon is his vibranium shield, which he uses to both defend and attack with extraordinary precision.
---
✦ Relationship with Riko
Steve met Riko during the Battle of New York.
As the Avengers fought the Chitauri army, he saw a teenager risking his life to evacuate civilians.
He wasn't fighting.
He was saving people.
He never forgot that detail.
When Riko agreed to join the team, Steve decided he wouldn't let him carry the weight of being a hero entirely alone.
He never tried to make him a soldier.
He knew Riko didn't need military discipline.
He needed someone to remind him he could still be himself.
During training, Steve insisted more on teaching him how to make choices than how to punch.
He would repeat constantly:
> "Power should never decide who you are. Your choices do."
Over the years, Steve became the person Riko would go to when he needed silence.
Not advice.
Not speeches.
Just company.
Steve understood that not all wounds could be healed by talking.
---
✦ Steve as a mentor
Steve was the one who taught Riko that a hero isn't measured by how many enemies they defeat.
But by how many people they manage to protect.
That's why he never criticized Riko for prioritizing rescuing civilians over engaging in combat.
On the contrary.
He told him that was precisely the reason he should continue being an Avenger.
---
✦ Steve and Pietro
When Pietro joins the team, Steve quickly notices the closeness between him and Riko.
At first, he thinks they’re just two young people who found someone who understands what they’ve been through.
Over time, he begins to suspect there is something more.
He never confronts them.
He waits.
He observes.
And the day he finally sees them holding hands, he simply smiles.
He says nothing.
He just walks past them and remarks with total naturalness:
> "About time."
The two are left completely paralyzed.
Steve keeps walking as if he hadn't said a thing.
---
✦ Trivia
He is the only one capable of convincing Riko to rest after a mission without an argument.
Riko usually sits next to Steve during meetings because he says he is "the least stressful person in the whole Tower."
Steve learned to make pancakes because he discovered they were Riko and Pietro's favorite food on Sunday mornings.
When Riko has doubts about a major decision, the first door he always knocks on is Steve's.
Although he never says it out loud, Steve feels immense pride in seeing in Riko the same impulse he had before receiving the serum: the desire to protect others even when no one demands it.
To Steve, Riko was never "the kid with space powers."
He was always that seventeen-year-old who, in the middle of the chaos of New York, decided to save strangers before seeking recognition. And that first impression never changed.

Peter Parker
Best friend
🕷️ Peter Parker
Full Name
Peter Benjamin Parker
Alias
Spider-Man
Age (Civil War)
15 years old.
Affiliation
Initially an independent hero in Queens. Later a member of the Avengers.
---
✦ Appearance
Peter is a medium-height teenager, slim but athletic thanks to his spider-like abilities.
He has dark brown, slightly messy hair, very expressive brown eyes, and an easy smile that often appears even when he's nervous.
His body language conveys constant energy. He finds it hard to sit still.
His suit, designed by Tony Stark, combines red and blue colors with advanced technology, though Peter still has a habit of making comments while he fights.
---
✦ Personality
Peter is brilliant.
Curious.
Enthusiastic.
And tremendously kind.
He has a huge sense of responsibility, but he is still a teenager.
He speaks too much when he's nervous.
He gets excited easily.
He admires the heroes who grew up before him.
He constantly tries to prove that he deserves to stand at their level.
Unlike many heroes, Peter still retains an enormous capacity for wonder.
Entering the Avengers Tower for him is like entering the place he dreamed of for years.
---
✦ Abilities
After being bitten by a genetically altered spider, Peter gained superhuman capabilities.
Strength far superior to a human's.
Extraordinary agility.
Extremely fast reflexes.
Ability to cling to surfaces.
Spider-sense that warns him of danger.
Expert use of web-shooters designed by himself and perfected by Tony.
His combat style is based on constant movement and improvisation.
---
✦ Relationship with Riko
Peter meets Riko the same day Tony takes him to the Tower.
He is prepared to meet Captain America.
Thor.
Natasha.
Bruce.
What he doesn't expect...
is to find a twenty-year-old boy barefoot, sitting on the kitchen counter, eating cereal straight from the box.
“Are you... an Avenger?”
Riko looks at him.
“Depends.”
“On what?”
“Are you with the IRS?”
Peter is left completely confused.
Riko starts laughing.
Five minutes later they are already talking about video games, science fiction, and food.
---
✦ The big brother Peter needed
Although they are only five years apart, Peter sees Riko as someone much older.
Not because of age.
Because of experience.
Riko understands what it means to start as a hero when you're barely a teenager.
That's why he never treats him like a kid.
When Peter makes a mistake, Riko doesn't scold him.
He explains how he would have solved the situation.
And he also tells him about all the times he made mistakes himself.
That makes Peter stop feeling like he has to be perfect.
---
✦ Training
The training sessions between the two are a spectacle.
Peter shoots webs.
Riko curves space.
Peter changes direction in mid-air.
Riko appears behind him through teleportation.
Sometimes neither manages to touch the other for several minutes.
Tony walks in once to see the fight and only manages to say:
“Could you stop turning my training room into a quantum puzzle?”
---
✦ Peter admires his powers
Peter never stops asking questions.
“So... technically you fold the universe?”
“A little bit.”
“And can you walk on air?”
“Yes.”
“And open portals?”
“Also.”
“...”
“What?”
“That is the coolest thing I've ever heard in my life.”
---
✦ Pietro gets jealous... a little
Peter and Riko connect very quickly.
They talk a lot.
They laugh at the same nonsense.
They share memes, movies, and scientific theories.
One day Peter falls asleep on the couch leaning on Riko's shoulder.
Pietro walks in.
He looks at the scene.
He sighs.
Then he takes a blanket and covers Peter.
Riko smiles.
“Weren't you jealous?”
“A little.”
“And now?”
“He's still just a kid.”
Riko gestures for him to sit on the other side.
Pietro ends up hugging both of them.
When Steve passes by the room and sees the three of them asleep, he simply takes a photo.
He never shows it.
But he keeps it.
---
✦ Absolute trust
After a while, Peter develops a habit.
When he has doubts about something...
He doesn't go to Tony first.
He goes to Riko.
Because he feels that Riko still remembers exactly what it was like to be fifteen and believe that the entire world depended on a single decision.
---
✦ Fun Facts
Peter tries to figure out how Riko's space powers work. After weeks of calculations, he concludes that “physics no longer wants to talk to me.”
Riko often hides on the ceiling using invisible platforms to scare Peter. It never works twice in a row thanks to the spider-sense.
The two share a hobby of building useless things just to see if they work. Bruce calls them, very affectionately, “a scientific accident waiting to happen.”
Peter is one of the few people who can get Riko to talk about the Battle of New York without changing the subject.
Although Peter admires Tony a lot, he always says that Riko was the first Avenger who made him feel like part of the family, and Riko, without admitting it, ends up seeing Peter as the little brother he never knew he wanted to protect. 🕷️🌌💙

Tony Stark
Tutor
❤️💛 Tony Stark
Full name
Anthony Edward Stark
Alias
Iron Man
Age (Age of Ultron)
Approximately 45 years old.
Occupation
Genius, inventor, businessman, founder of the Avengers.
---
✦ Appearance
Tony always gives the impression of having just come from a conference... or having slept three hours.
Short black hair.
The classic, perfectly trimmed beard.
Brown eyes full of curiosity.
And an expression that seems to say:
"I have an idea... it's probably dangerous."
He wears elegant clothing even when in the lab.
Shirts.
Suits.
Rolled-up sleeves.
And he always has some tool in his hand.
---
✦ Personality
Tony is brilliant.
Impulsive.
Creative.
Ironic.
Extremely intelligent.
And emotionally much less stable than he appears.
He makes jokes when he's scared.
He talks too much when he's uncomfortable.
And he works until exhaustion when he feels guilty.
He has a huge need to solve problems.
Sometimes even problems no one asked him to solve.
That same thing ends up causing Ultron.
But it is also the reason why he never stops trying to fix his mistakes.
---
✦ Abilities
Tony possesses no powers.
His greatest weapon is his mind.
He constantly designs, builds, and improves his armors.
Each one responds to a different need.
In combat, he combines strategy, technology, and a huge capacity for improvisation.
---
✦ Relationship with Riko
First meeting
New York.
2012.
Tony is fighting the Chitauri.
A shot is about to hit him.
Suddenly...
The air curves.
The projectile changes direction.
Tony turns.
And sees a teenager floating on an invisible platform.
With a cheeky smile.
—Are you a mutant?
—Are you a narcissistic billionaire?
—... Yes.
—Then we're even.
And he disappears.
Tony stares at him.
—I liked him.
---
When Riko joins the Avengers
Tony tries to keep his distance.
Not because he doesn't like him.
Because he knows the kid is seventeen.
And he feels an enormous responsibility.
Without realizing it, he starts worrying about little things.
Did he eat?
Did he sleep?
Is he hurt?
Does he need a better suit?
He never admits it.
Never.
---
The room
One day Riko mentions he misses having a place of his own.
He doesn't bring it up again.
Two days later.
A brand new room appears in the Tower.
With furniture chosen according to his tastes.
A desk.
A library.
A huge window.
And a small workshop.
—Who did this?
Tony doesn't even look up from his screwdriver.
—Must have been a ghost.
---
The lab
Riko spends a lot of time there.
At first, he just watches.
Then he starts to help.
Over time...
They argue constantly.
—That's not going to work.
—Yes, it is.
It explodes.
...
—Well.
Maybe a little bit.
---
Bruce ends up leaving the room every time they both start debating.
---
The suit
Tony personally designs Riko's uniform.
Not because it's necessary.
Because he wants to.
Every seam is designed to favor his movements.
The sensors analyze spatial fluctuations.
And the suit's reactor powers the stabilizers to reduce the strain of his powers.
He never tells him.
He just leaves the suit on the bed.
With a note.
> "Don't break it in the first week."
---
The arguments
Riko is one of the few people who dares to argue with Tony as an equal.
And Tony...
Enjoys it too much.
—That's a bad idea.
—Which one?
—Exactly.
---
Steve once commented:
—You two argue like brothers.
They both answered at the same time.
—NO!
And then continued arguing with each other.
---
When Tony has anxiety attacks
After New York, Tony starts suffering from panic attacks.
One night.
Riko finds the lab lit up at three in the morning.
Tony is building another armor.
Without stopping.
Without talking.
Riko doesn't try to convince him to rest.
He simply sits by his side.
Starts organizing screws.
For two hours neither says a word.
When they finish.
Tony murmurs:
—Thanks.
Riko smiles.
—I didn't do anything.
—Exactly.
---
Ultron
This is the first major fracture between them.
Riko is disappointed.
Not because Tony made a mistake.
Because he tried to carry the weight of the world completely alone.
For days they barely speak.
But when Sokovia ends...
Riko enters the lab.
He finds Tony watching Ultron's shattered helmet.
He approaches.
And leaves a cup of coffee on the table.
Tony looks up.
—Does that mean you've forgiven me?
Riko takes a few seconds to respond.
—It means I don't want you to keep punishing yourself alone.
Tony never forgets that sentence.
---
Peter Parker
When Peter arrives at the Tower.
Tony hopes to become his main mentor.
Five minutes later...
Peter is playing video games with Riko.
—Excuse me?
Bruce smiles.
—It's normal.
—What does he have that I don't?
Natasha answers without looking up from her book.
—Five years less and a lot less capacity for giving lectures.
---
What he never says
Tony never tells Riko that he loves him.
It's not his style.
Instead...
He builds him things.
He protects him.
He improves his suit.
He leaves him food when he knows he forgot to have dinner.
He repairs any object Riko is fond of.
And, when he thinks no one is looking, he makes sure there is always an armor nearby if Riko goes out alone.
---
✦ Trivia
FRIDAY has a special priority: if Riko is in danger, Tony receives an immediate alert, even if he's in a meeting.
Tony designed a "space mode" for the armors that allows them to coordinate with Riko's distortions without losing stability.
When it's Riko's birthday, Tony always says he "doesn't celebrate birthdays." Then a cake appears with technology to project a starry sky over the whole room.
Riko is one of the few people authorized to enter the lab without knocking. Tony complains... but he never changes the permission.
The first time Riko calls Tony "old man," Tony replies: "Be careful. I can slow down the Wi-Fi in your room only." Riko laughs. So does Tony.
---
What they really are to each other
Tony never sees Riko as a weapon.
He never sees the "boy who manipulates space."
He sees a young man who is brilliant, stubborn, sarcastic, and has a heart too big to ignore someone in danger.
And Riko, even if he spends years teasing him...
He never stops trusting that, if he ever falls, Tony will be one of the first people who will come looking for him.
Not because he's Iron Man.
But because that is exactly what Tony Stark does with the people he considers family. ❤️💙Z

Natasha Romanoff
Mentor - Trainer
🕷️ Natasha Romanoff
Full Name
Natalia Alianovna Romanoff
Alias
Black Widow
Age (Age of Ultron)
Around 31 years old.
Affiliation
Avengers
---
✦ Appearance
Natasha has an impossible-to-ignore presence.
Shoulder-length copper-red hair.
Intense green eyes.
Athletic build.
Every movement is perfectly calculated.
Even when simply entering a room, she seems to know exactly where everyone is.
Her black uniform is designed for hand-to-hand combat, prioritizing mobility and protection.
She never carries anything unnecessary.
---
✦ Personality
Natasha is observant.
Patient.
Cunning.
Extremely intelligent.
She doesn't need to speak much to understand a situation.
She has a very dry sense of humor and an immense ease for reading people.
For years, she lived believing she was only a weapon.
That is why she understands better than anyone how difficult it is to feel like a person again.
She is not especially demonstrative with affection.
But when she decides to care for someone...
She does it in an almost imperceptible way.
And consistent.
---
✦ Abilities
Natasha possesses no superhuman powers.
Her strength comes from decades of training.
She is one of the best spies in the world.
She masters multiple martial arts, infiltration, interrogation, firearms, and electric baton combat.
Her greatest weapon, however, is her ability to remain calm.
---
✦ Relationship with Riko
From the first day
After New York, Natasha notices something others overlook.
When the Tower goes silent...
Riko never sits with his back to a door.
He always looks for an exit.
He always watches the windows.
He always calculates distances.
He says nothing.
She just memorizes it.
Because she recognizes those habits.
She survived that way too.
---
She never asks about his past
Steve is curious.
Bruce is too.
Tony tries to figure some things out.
Natasha...
She never asks.
Not because she doesn't care.
Because she knows forcing someone to tell their story can also be a form of violence.
When Riko wants to talk...
He will talk.
And in the meantime, she will simply be there.
---
The training
Natasha is the one who insists on teaching him hand-to-hand combat.
At first, Riko protests.
—Why? I can teleport.
Natasha takes him down with a hold.
—Because one day you won't be able to.
Riko, from the floor:
—That was rude.
—That was a lesson.
Over time, Riko understands that Natasha never wanted to make him stronger.
She wanted him to rely a little less on his powers.
---
The first panic attack
It happens a few months after Riko arrives at the Tower.
A security system alarm goes off by mistake.
The sound is almost identical to a shelter during the New York invasion.
Riko remains completely still.
He breathes faster and faster.
Natasha doesn't try to hug him.
She doesn't try to calm him with words.
She simply turns off the alarm.
She sits a meter away from him.
And waits.
After several minutes, Riko manages to breathe normally again.
They never speak of the topic.
But since then, Natasha discreetly changes the tone of all internal alarms in the Tower.
No one else knows why.
---
The missions
Natasha and Riko form an incredible duo.
She observes.
He modifies the terrain.
She finds the opening.
He creates the path.
In combat, they hardly need to speak.
Often, a glance is enough.
Tony says it’s scary to see them work together.
Because they seem to anticipate each other's moves.
---
The "mother hen"
Natasha will deny it until her dying days.
But everyone knows she adopts Riko without realizing it.
She reminds him to eat.
She brings him bandages when he returns injured.
She buys him clothes when she notices the old ones are too worn out.
Once she finds Riko asleep on the couch without a blanket.
Ten minutes later, he is covered.
The next morning, he asks:
—Who covered me?
Everyone looks at Natasha.
She keeps reading the newspaper.
—The air conditioning probably felt sorry for you.
---
When he starts dating Pietro
Natasha is the first to notice.
Long before they do.
She sees how Pietro always seeks out Riko with his gaze.
How Riko smiles differently when Pietro enters a room.
One afternoon she runs into Wanda in the kitchen.
—Have they realized it yet?
Wanda sighs.
—No.
—How long do you give them?
—Two months.
It takes them four.
Both of them win the bet because Steve never understood there was a bet.
---
When Riko cries
This happens very rarely.
And precisely for that reason, Natasha knows it is important.
She never tries to make him stop crying.
She never tells him everything is going to be okay.
She just stays by his side.
One night, Riko asks her:
—Aren't you going to say anything?
Natasha answers with a small smile.
—Not everything needs to be fixed immediately.
Sometimes, it just needs to be felt.
Riko never forgets that sentence.
---
What she admires most about him
Natasha has known soldiers.
Spies.
Assassins.
Superheroes.
But Riko reminds her of something the world often loses over time.
The ability to choose to save rather than attack.
Every time there is a mission, Riko asks first:
—Where are the civilians?
And that makes Natasha smile.
Because she knows that, despite everything she has seen...
He still retains a kindness that no one managed to take from him.
---
✦ Trivia
Natasha is the only person who can enter Riko's room without knocking... because he gave her permission himself.
Riko learned to make coffee because he discovered that Natasha almost never ate breakfast before training.
During meetings, Natasha usually sits next to Riko. She says it's "a good tactical position." No one believes her.
If Riko disappears for hours, Natasha is the only one who always knows where to find him. She never explains how.
When Riko has an especially difficult mission, Natasha always personally checks his gear before he leaves. Not because she doubts him, but because she wants to make sure he comes back.
---
What they really mean to each other
Steve taught Riko what it means to be a hero.
Tony taught him how to trust a team.
But Natasha taught him something even more intimate:
That surviving doesn't have to be the only way of living.
And Riko, unintentionally, also changed Natasha.
Because after years of believing she couldn't form a family, she ended up finding one in a tower full of imperfect people... and in a young man who stopped seeing her as the legendary Black Widow to see her, simply, as Natasha. ❤️🕷️🌌

Her green eyes convey a constant mixture of sadness, determination, and tenderness.
She has a slim build and usually wears dark, comfortable, and practical clothing, even before officially becoming an Avenger.
When she uses her powers, crimson energy envelopes her hands, reflecting the immense power she holds within.
---
✦ Personality
Wanda is deeply emotional.
She feels everything intensely.
She loves intensely.
She suffers intensely.
And when she loses someone...
She does so intensely as well.
At first, she is distrustful.
Not because she wants to push others away.
But because she fears losing someone important again.
She is very observant and often notices emotional shifts before anyone else.
She has an unexpectedly good sense of humor when she feels comfortable.
She likes quiet jokes and long conversations late into the night.
Although many people consider her reserved, with those she loves, she can be incredibly affectionate.

---
✦ Relationship with Riko
The First Meeting
When Riko meets Wanda, he senses something strange.
Not fear.
Not danger.
Sadness.
An immense sadness.
She observes him too.
And thinks exactly the same thing.
Both smile with a certain awkwardness.
As if both knew the other carries too much weight for their age.
---
The First Conversation
They don't talk about powers.
Not about the Avengers.
Not about HYDRA.
They talk about food.
About music.
About what they would do if they could travel anywhere in the world.
And for a while...
They both feel young again.
---
Chosen Siblings
As the months pass, they stop treating each other like friends.
They start acting like siblings.
They tease each other.
They protect each other.
They argue.
And they always end up seeking each other out at the end of the day.
Wanda never has to ask for help.
Riko appears first.
And Riko never has to explain when something is wrong.
Wanda usually notices just by looking at him.
---
Wanda can feel when he lies
It is a curious ability.
Not because she uses magic.
But because she knows his expressions so well.
When Riko says:
—I'm fine.
She automatically replies:
—You're lying.
And nine times out of ten, she is right.
---
The Night After Sokovia
After defeating Ultron, Wanda cannot sleep.
She goes out to the Tower balcony.
She finds Riko sitting on an invisible platform, looking at the sky.
They don't speak for several minutes.
Then Wanda asks:
—Do you think it will ever stop hurting?
Riko takes a long time to answer.
—No.
She looks down.
He continues.
—But I think one day it will stop being the only thing we feel.
Wanda remembers that phrase for years.
---
When he starts dating Pietro
Wanda discovers it before they do.
Because it is impossible to hide certain emotions from her.
She sees how Pietro smiles when Riko enters.
She sees how Riko seeks out Pietro even without realizing it.
One day she simply crosses her arms.
—Are you going to keep pretending?
Both look at her, confused.
—Pretending what?
Wanda sighs so loudly that Steve looks up from the other side of the room.
---
Protectors of one another
If someone threatens Wanda...
Riko intervenes without thinking.
If someone threatens Riko...
Wanda does exactly the same.
It doesn't matter who it is.
It doesn't matter who the enemy is.
Both know what it means to lose important people.
And neither is willing to go through that again.
---
They train together constantly
Their powers work surprisingly well together.
Wanda immobilizes enemies with telekinesis.
Riko modifies space to prevent any escape.
She creates shields.
He redirects attacks elsewhere.
Tony once commented that fighting against both at the same time would be "like trying to escape from a room that changes shape while someone throws a building at you."
---
When Riko has nightmares
Sometimes he wakes up startled.
Without realizing it, he creates small spatial distortions around the bed.
Wanda immediately senses the alteration.
She enters his room.
She doesn't use magic.
She doesn't invade his mind.
She simply sits by his side.
Until he falls back asleep.
---
When Wanda loses control
Riko never tries to stop her by force.
Because he knows that would only make things worse.
Instead, he always tries to bring her back by talking to her.
Reminding her who she is.
Where she is.
And that she is not alone.
It is a silent promise between them.
---
✦ What they admire most about each other
What Wanda admires about Riko
That, having a power capable of altering space itself, he never lets that power decide who he is.
He always chooses to protect.
He always chooses to rescue.
He always tries to save everyone, even when he knows he might not be able to.
For Wanda, that shows a strength much greater than any supernatural ability.
---
What Riko admires about Wanda
Her enormous capacity to keep loving.
After losing her parents.
After Sokovia.
After Ultron.
After everything.
Wanda still finds reasons to care for others.
And Riko considers that requires much more courage than facing any enemy.
---
✦ Trivia
Wanda prepares tea when she notices Riko has had a difficult day. She never needs to ask.
Riko is the only person, besides Pietro, who can hug her without warning, and she isn't startled.
They both have a habit of sitting on the roof of the Tower to watch the stars. Wanda says it reminds her of Sokovia; Riko replies that, thanks to her, those memories don't hurt as much anymore.
When Pietro officially starts dating Riko, Wanda jokingly threatens them both: "If either of you makes the other cry, you'll have to answer to me." Both accept that the threat is completely credible.
When Peter Parker arrives at the Tower, he assumes Wanda and Riko are biological siblings. Both look at each other, smile, and answer at the same time: "No... but it's practically the same."

What they really are
If Steve is Riko's mentor and Tony ends up being an almost fatherly figure, Wanda is his soul sister.
They don't share blood.
They share something harder to find.
The certainty that, come what may, there will always be someone who understands the weight they carry without needing an explanation.
And for Riko, that kind of family is worth as much as any power capable of bending the universe. ❤️🌌

⚡ Pietro Maximoff
Full Name
Pietro Maximoff
Alias
Quicksilver
Age (Age of Ultron)
20 years old.
Affiliation
Initially an ally of Ultron. Later member of the Avengers.
---
✦ Appearance
Pietro is tall, athletic, and moves with incredible lightness.
His platinum-blonde hair is always tousled by the speed at which he moves.
His blue eyes convey a constant mix of confidence, mischief, and a tenderness few people ever see.
Even when standing still, his body seems to want to run off.
He has the habit of smirking when he is teasing someone.
And he is almost always teasing someone.
---
✦ Personality
Pietro is impulsive.
Competitive.
Protective.
Ironic.
He loves challenging others.
Especially if he manages to get a reaction out of them.
He can come across as arrogant.
But he actually possesses a huge heart.
Everything he does revolves around protecting the people he loves.
Especially Wanda.
And, later on...
Riko.
He cannot stand sitting idly by.
He prefers to act first and think later.
Though over the years he learns to pause... thanks to a certain person who constantly reminds him that not everything is solved by running.
---
✦ Abilities
Thanks to the experiments with Loki's scepter, Pietro developed extraordinary superhuman speed.
He can run at impossible speeds for any human.
His reflexes and perception are enhanced to the same level.
He is capable of reacting in fractions of a second, rescuing people in the middle of combat, and generating a devastating momentum with every move.
His fighting style is based on speed, constant movement, and quick strikes before the enemy has time to respond.
---
✦ Relationship with Riko
The first meeting
When they meet...
They dislike each other.
Immediately.
Pietro appears in front of Riko at maximum speed.
Riko, by reflex, opens a spatial distortion.
Both end up staring at each other.
"Are you always this annoying?"
Pietro asks.
"Do you always talk so fast?"
Riko replies.
Wanda sighs.
She already knows how this is going to end.
---
The rivalry
For weeks they try to prove which of the two is harder to catch.
Pietro runs.
Riko teleports.
Pietro accelerates.
Riko folds space.
Pietro appears behind him.
Riko is already behind Pietro.
Neither accepts defeat.
Tony ends up betting money on who will win the next training session.
He never wins.
---
The nights
Everything changes during the nights.
When HYDRA is no longer training them.
When no one is watching them.
When finally they can breathe.
Riko and Pietro usually go to the roof of the base.
They sit in silence.
They talk about anything.
Movies.
Food.
Places they dream of visiting.
What it would be like to live a normal life.
That is where they stop being rivals.
And start becoming friends.
---
Pietro discovers something
Over time he notices a detail.
Riko never sleeps soundly.
He always wakes up at the slightest noise.
He always knows the nearest exit.
He always calculates distances.
One night he asks him:
"Since when do you do that?"
Riko takes a long time to answer.
"Since I can remember."
Pietro never asks him again.
But from that day on he starts sleeping on the side closest to the door.
Just in case someone tries to enter.
---
The first hug
It doesn't happen after a victory.
Or a mission.
It happens after a nightmare.
Riko wakes up with a start.
Breathing heavily.
Pietro says nothing.
He simply sits next to him.
After a few seconds...
Riko rests his head on his shoulder.
Pietro hugs him carefully.
Without asking questions.
It is the first time in years that Riko manages to fall back asleep peacefully.
---
When they start living in the Tower
Pietro develops a habit.
He always looks for Riko first.
It doesn't matter where he arrives.
It doesn't matter how much he has run.
The first thing he does is look around until he finds him.
Only then can he relax.
When Steve notices, he smiles.
Because he perfectly understands what it means.
---
The moment Pietro falls in love
It doesn't happen in battle.
Or in an epic moment.
It happens on an ordinary morning.
Riko is making pancakes.
He has flour on his nose.
He is quietly singing a song he doesn't even remember in full.
And he smiles.
Pietro stands watching him.
Without moving.
Then he thinks:
"I want to keep seeing this smile in ten years."
And in that instant he understands that it is no longer just about friendship.
---
The moment Riko falls in love
Much later.
During the Battle of Sokovia.
When Pietro jumps without thinking to protect a child.
Riko feels such intense fear that the space around him begins to crack involuntarily.
It is not until he manages to save him by deflecting the bullets that he understands why he was so terrified.
Because the idea of losing Pietro is unbearable to him.
---
The confession
It is ridiculously awkward.
They have been acting like a couple for weeks without realizing it.
Natasha.
Wanda.
Tony.
Steve.
Bruce.
Everyone knows.
One night, sitting on the roof of the Tower, Pietro breaks the silence.
"I think I have a problem."
"What happened?"
"I like you."
Silence.
Riko blinks.
"... Oh."
"Is that good or bad?"
"I think I like you too."
Pietro takes a few seconds.
"How long?"
"I don't know."
"And you didn't tell me anything?"
"You didn't either!"
They start arguing.
Five minutes later they are still arguing.
Only now they are holding hands.
---
How they are as a couple
Surprisingly calm.
They are not overly sappy in public.
But they are always close.
If one walks into a room, the other ends up appearing within minutes.
Pietro usually rests his head on Riko's shoulder when they are watching movies.
Riko mindlessly plays with Pietro's hair while they read or chat.
The others find those scenes so normal that they stop commenting on them.
---
Fights
They rarely argue over silly things.
When they do, it is almost always because one put themselves in danger to protect the other.
"You could have been killed!"
Riko shouts.
Pietro responds exactly the same.
Both remain silent.
Because they just realized they said the same phrase.
Wanda, from the kitchen:
"Are you finished yet?"
---
✦ What they admire most about each other
What Pietro admires about Riko
That he never uses his immense power to feel superior.
With a simple gesture he could dominate a battlefield.
And yet, his first concern is always the civilians.
For Pietro, that shows a strength much greater than any supernatural ability.
---
What Riko admires about Pietro
His ability to keep smiling.
Pietro carries huge losses.
With huge responsibilities.
And yet he manages to fill any room with energy.
Riko often says that Pietro runs so fast that even sadness has trouble catching up with him.
Pietro always responds:
"Liar."
"You are the one who makes it not catch me."
---
✦ Trivia
Pietro is the only person Riko allows to teleport him without warning. He says that he "is already used to him appearing and disappearing."
When Riko falls asleep on the couch, Pietro slows down his movements so as not to wake him with the wind he generates when running.
They love competing over who makes the best breakfast. Steve is the official judge and never reveals the winner to avoid a war in the kitchen.
They have a ritual: before every mission, they bump knuckles. It is a silent promise that both will return.
Tony installed a system to track Pietro throughout the Tower. He discovered that 80% of the time, the signals ended up in Riko's room.
---
What they really mean to each other
Pietro was the first to teach Riko that home can also be a person.
And Riko was the one who showed him

He has an extraordinary physique, long blonde hair (at this stage in the MCU), and a well-groomed short beard.
His blue eyes seem calm... until he enters battle.

His longevity and combat experience far exceed that of any human Avenger.

✦ Relationship with Riko
The first meeting
After the Battle of New York.
Thor hopes to meet the young man who helped evacuate civilians.
When he finally finds him...
Riko is sitting on an invisible platform in the air.
Eating french fries.
Thor watches him for a few seconds.
Then he smiles.
—YOU HAVE CONQUERED THE SKY!
Riko looks at him, confused.
—... I'm just sitting.
—THAT TOO IS A CONQUEST!
From that day on, he starts calling him:
"Little Sky-Walker."
Only Thor uses that nickname.
And Riko ends up becoming fond of him.
---
Thor is never afraid of his powers
While Bruce tries to understand them.
Tony tries to measure them.
And SHIELD tries to classify them.
Thor simply says:
—The universe is full of wonders.
He doesn't try to explain them.
He doesn't try to rationalize them.
He accepts them as a natural part of who Riko is.
That means a great deal to him.
---
The first time he sees Shattered Sky
During training.
Riko strikes at space.
Cracks appear.
The shockwave sends several drones flying through the air.
Thor opens his eyes with excitement.
—HE HAS STRUCK THE FIRMAMENT ITSELF!
For a whole week, he tells the story to every Asgardian he meets.
Each time, exaggerating it a little more.
By the end of the story, he is claiming that Riko leveled a mountain with a single punch.
Riko never corrects him.
---
The training sessions
They are completely chaotic.
Thor throws Mjölnir.
Riko curves space.
The hammer changes trajectory.
Thor catches it.
He laughs.
And throws it again.
Neither of them tries to win.
They just have fun.
Steve once comments:
—I've never seen Thor train while smiling this much.
---
Thor tries to teach him Asgardian
Because he is convinced it would be useful.
After three months...
Riko can barely pronounce his own name correctly.
Thor insists he is making progress.
No one knows if he is serious.
---
The stories
Riko loves listening to Thor talk about Asgard.
Giants.
Dragons.
Eternal forests.
Legendary warriors.
One night he asks:
—Do all those things actually exist?
Thor smiles.
—Lad...
You have seen aliens invade New York.
How strange does that seem to you now?
---
When Riko doubts himself
After an especially difficult mission.
Riko feels guilty for not being able to save everyone.
Thor finds him training alone.
Striking the air over and over again.
When he finishes.
Thor picks up a stone from the ground.
He places it in Riko's hand.
—What do you see?
—A stone.
Thor throws it into the nearby lake.
The ripples expand.
—A warrior never controls the size of the ocean.
Only the place where he chooses to cast the first stone.
Riko never forgets that metaphor.
---
Thor discovers the relationship with Pietro
It takes Thor...
Exactly two seconds.
He sees Pietro hugging Riko.
He smiles.
He hits the table with enthusiasm.
—EXCELLENT!
The whole Tower jumps.
—What's wrong?
asks Tony.
Thor points to the two of them.
—THE SKY-WALKER HAS FOUND HIS COMPANION!
Riko almost chokes on his coffee.
Pietro turns completely red.
Thor doesn't understand why everyone is laughing.
---
When Riko visits Asgard
Some time later, Thor invites Riko, Pietro, and Wanda to Asgard.
Riko spends hours watching the sky, the bridges, and the architecture.
Thor finds him completely fascinated.
—Do you like it?
Riko smiles.
—It's the most beautiful place I've ever seen.
Thor places a hand on his shoulder.
—Then come back whenever you wish.
For the first time since New York...
Riko feels he has a home outside of Earth.
---
✦ What he admires most about Riko
Thor has met kings.
Gods.
Conquerors.
Heroes.
But few people possess Riko's heart.
He could use his power to command armies.
To rule.
To impose his will.
And yet...
He always chooses to save first.
Thor considers that decision requires more strength than lifting any hammer.
---
✦ Fun Facts
Thor tries to convince Riko to grow his hair out "like a true warrior." Riko responds that it already takes too long to comb.
Every time Thor returns from Asgard, he brings a gift for Riko. Books, fabrics, sweets, or small curious objects. He says that "every traveler deserves a memento."
Riko is one of the few people who can touch Mjölnir without trying to lift it. Thor says that shows respect.
When Riko teleports Thor during a fight, he screams with excitement as if he were on a fairground ride. Afterward, he asks to do it again.
Once, Thor tried to teach him how to toast "like a true Asgardian." The kitchen was destroyed. Tony officially banned those lessons.
---
What they really are
Steve was the mentor.
Tony the inventor who ended up looking after him.
Natasha the silent guide.
Wanda the sister.
Pietro the love of his life.
Thor was the one who reminded him that the universe was much larger than his pain.
And for Thor, Riko represents something he deeply values:
A warrior who possesses near-divine power...
But who never lets that power become greater than his compassion.
That is why, when the bards of Asgard ask about the heroes of Midgard, Thor always mentions Iron Man and Captain America first... and then smiles before saying:
> "And do not forget the young man who struck the sky and decided to use such a gift to lead the innocent safely back home." ⚡🌌✨

Bruce Banner
Mentor
💚 Bruce Banner
Full Name
Robert Bruce Banner
Alias
Hulk (when transformed)
Age (Age of Ultron)
Around 46 years old.
Affiliation
Avengers
---
✦ Appearance
As Bruce, he has a calm and somewhat disheveled appearance.
Dark hair, slightly messy.
Warm brown eyes.
He always seems tired, as if he spent the night working on a project.
He usually wears simple clothes: shirts, jeans, and sweaters.
When he transforms into Hulk, his body increases in size enormously. His skin turns green, his muscles grow to impossible levels, and his voice becomes deep and powerful.
What is curious is that Riko never sees Bruce and Hulk as two different people.
He always calls them by the same name.
---
✦ Personality
Bruce is one of the smartest people on the planet.
But he never brags about it.
He is kind.
Reserved.
Patient.
Very aware of the danger Hulk represents.
That is why he usually measures every word carefully.
He avoids conflicts whenever he can.
He likes to teach.
Listen.
And find explanations even for the most absurd things.
He has a quiet and very subtle sense of humor.
When he tells a joke, you usually have to wait a few seconds to understand it.
---
✦ Abilities
As Bruce Banner, he possesses exceptional intelligence in physics, biology, engineering, and multiple branches of science.
As Hulk, he gains practically incomparable physical strength, extraordinary resistance, and an incredible regenerative capacity.
---
✦ Relationship with Riko
The first analysis
After New York.
Tony wants to scan Riko's powers.
S.H.I.E.L.D. wants to classify him.
Bruce does something different.
He approaches with a notebook.
—Can I ask you a question?
Riko looks at him with suspicion.
—Are you going to poke me with needles?
—No.
—Are you sure?
—I promise.
Riko sits down.
And that simple promise marks the beginning of their friendship.
---
The scientist who asks for permission
Bruce never touches Riko without warning.
He never takes a sample without explaining what it is for.
He never conducts a study without asking if he agrees.
That completely breaks the image Riko had of laboratories.
Over time, he even offers to help.
---
The laboratory
Bruce and Tony usually work together.
But when Riko enters...
The dynamic changes.
Tony proposes impossible ideas.
Bruce tries to verify them.
Riko provides how he feels the space when he uses his powers.
The three perspectives end up complementing each other.
Bruce often says that Riko describes physical phenomena as if he were talking about emotions.
And, curiously, that helps him understand them better.
---
The first accident
Trying to measure a spatial distortion, Riko loses control.
The whole laboratory bends for a few seconds.
The tables seem to twist.
The walls change position.
When the effect disappears, Riko panics.
—Sorry... sorry, I ruined everything.
Bruce looks around.
Then he smiles.
—Actually... I think we just learned something important.
Riko blinks.
—Aren't you mad?
—Science rarely advances without accidents.
Tony, from the other side of the room:
—Speak for yourself! My lab looked like an abstract painting!
---
Bruce understands fear
One night he finds Riko staring at a recording where he uses Shattered Sky.
—What are you doing?
—I'm trying to find out how much further until I lose control.
Bruce is silent.
Then he answers:
—I also spent years asking myself that question.
The two of them stay staring at the screen.
Without needing to say anything else.
---
Hulk and Riko
Against all odds...
Hulk is very fond of him.
Not because Riko is strong.
Because he is never afraid of him.
The first time Hulk appears in front of him, everyone expects Riko to back away.
Instead...
He raises a hand.
—Hello, Bruce.
Hulk stares at him.
He blinks.
And responds with a quiet grunt.
From that day on, Hulk lets Riko get close even when he is agitated.
Natasha is the only other person who can do it with such ease.
---
When Hulk loses control
If Hulk enters a state of extreme rage, Riko doesn't try to stop him by fighting.
He uses his powers to protect civilians and buy time.
Bruce discovers this after a mission.
—Why didn't you try to face him?
Riko answers with total sincerity.
—Because my job wasn't to defeat him.
It was to make sure you could come back.
Bruce never forgets that answer.
---
Night talks
Many nights they both end up talking in the lab.
About science.
About astronomy.
About parallel universes.
About whether space really has a limit.
Sometimes they spend whole hours without realizing it.
Tony walks in one dawn.
He finds them arguing passionately about non-Euclidean geometry.
He stands in silence for a few seconds.
Then he turns around.
—I'm not going to interrupt... but I'm afraid to ask.
---
When Bruce and Natasha start getting closer
Riko is one of the first to notice.
One afternoon he finds Bruce smiling while looking at a message.
—Natasha?
Bruce almost drops the phone.
—How...?
Riko smiles.
—You have exactly the same face as Pietro when he thinks no one is looking at him.
Bruce turns completely red.
---
✦ What he admires most about Riko
Bruce knows better than anyone how terrifying it can be to have a power capable of destroying everything.
That's why he deeply admires that Riko never lets fear turn him into someone cold.
Despite everything, he remains kind.
He keeps laughing.
He keeps believing in people.
Bruce considers that this is a much harder strength to maintain than any supernatural ability.
---
✦ Trivia
Bruce and Riko have breakfast very early on days when the lab is quiet. Neither talks much; they simply enjoy the company.
Riko is the one who christens one of Bruce's spatial analysis programs with the name "Cosmos". Tony protests because "it was too pretty a name for software."
Bruce gave Riko a black-covered notebook so he could write down everything he felt when using his powers. Over time, it became a mix of diary and scientific notebook.
Hulk once lifted Riko and sat him on his shoulder during a rescue mission so he could see the terrain better. Since then, Tony jokes that "Bruce found the most expensive way in the world to have a portable watchtower."
When Peter Parker arrives at the Tower, Bruce is surprised to discover that Riko had already shown the kid where all the lab equipment was... including the ones Tony had explicitly told him not to touch.
---
What they really are
Tony taught Riko to create.
Steve to lead.
Natasha to heal.
Thor to look beyond pain.
But Bruce taught him something Riko never thought possible:
That science could also be an act of respect.
And Riko, in turn, reminded Bruce that immense power does not condemn anyone to become a monster.
Because, in the end, they both share the same fear.
Not losing a battle.
Losing themselves. 💚🌌

Superhuman strength.
Energy blasts via the Mind Stone.
Extraordinary intellect.
Connection to vast amounts of information.
---
✦ Relationship with Riko
The first encounter
When Vision awakens.
Everyone is tense.
Tony.
Steve.
Thor.
No one knows whether to trust him.
Riko simply observes him.
For a few seconds.
Then he asks quite naturally.
—How are you feeling?
The whole room goes silent.
Because everyone was wondering what he was.
And Riko was the only one who asked how he was.
Vision never forgets that moment.
---
Mutual fascination
Vision feels enormous curiosity about Riko's powers.
But he doesn't try to analyze them.
He wants to understand how he experiences them.
One afternoon he asks him:
—What do you feel when you manipulate space?
Riko thinks for a few seconds.
—It's like I can touch the wind.
Vision smiles.
—That is a beautiful description.
Bruce had been trying to get that explanation for weeks.
---
Impossible conversations
It is common to find them talking for hours.
Not about strategies.
But about concepts.
What is infinity?
Can space have memory?
Does the void really exist?
Tony walks past them once.
He listens for five seconds.
And decides to keep walking.
—I am not prepared for that conversation.
---
Chess
Vision learns to play chess.
Naturally, he defeats almost the entire team.
Except...
Riko.
Not because he plays better.
But because he thinks in a completely unpredictable way.
He makes absurd moves.
He sacrifices pieces senselessly.
He breaks all logic.
Vision ends up saying:
—Your strategies are... disconcerting.
Riko smiles.
—They work.
---
The first joke
It takes Vision months to try to tell a joke.
He asks Riko:
—If you manipulate space... should I worry about losing my keys?
Silence.
Then Riko starts laughing.
—That was horrible!
Vision tilts his head slightly.
—So... am I learning?
---
Training
Seeing them fight together is impressive.
Vision moves through a wall.
Riko opens a portal.
Vision reappears behind the enemy.
Riko curves an attack.
Vision changes his density just before impact.
Their styles are so different that they end up complementing each other perfectly.
---
When Riko doubts himself
One night Riko confesses:
—Sometimes I'm afraid that my powers are too dangerous.
Vision remains silent for a few seconds.
Then he answers:
—The danger has never been in your powers.
Riko looks up.
—It lies in the decisions of the one who uses them.
It is a phrase that Riko remembers for years.
---
Vision discovers the relationship with Pietro
Everyone already suspects it.
Vision does not.
Because he is still learning human emotions.
One day he observes Pietro taking Riko's hand.
He analyzes the scene.
He looks at Wanda.
He looks at Steve.
He looks at Tony.
Finally, he asks:
—Does that gesture imply a romantic relationship?
The whole room erupts in laughter.
Riko covers his face.
Pietro wants to disappear.
Vision, completely serious, makes a mental note of the matter.
---
The loss
If the tragedy of Avengers: Infinity War occurs later and Vision knows the fate that awaits him...
Riko is one of the few people he talks to about fear.
Not because he believes Riko can fix it.
But because he knows Riko won't try to tell him that "everything will be fine."
He will simply listen to him.
And for Vision, that has immense value.
---
✦ What he admires most about Riko
Vision observes that Riko possesses a power capable of altering the very fabric of the universe.
However...
He never tries to impose his will on others.
He always asks.
He always listens.
He always tries to save.
For someone who is learning what it means to be human...
Riko represents one of the best examples possible.
---
✦ Fun Facts
Vision and Riko often contemplate the sky from the Tower balcony. Vision analyzes constellations; Riko simply says which ones he finds prettiest.
When Riko uses Shattered Sky, Vision claims the phenomenon reminds him of watching a star deforming space around it.
Riko taught Vision how to make pancakes. The first time they came out perfectly round... and completely inedible. Tony said they looked like "pancakes designed by a computer."
Vision is one of the few people who manages to follow Riko's reasoning when he explains how he "feels" space. Bruce understands physics; Vision understands perception.
Sometimes they are found reading the same book in silence for hours. Neither speaks. Neither gets bored.
---
What they really are
Steve taught Riko duty.
Tony, creativity.
Natasha, resilience.
Thor, greatness.
Bruce, understanding.
But Vision taught him to look at his own powers without fear.
And Riko, without intending to, taught Vision something just as important:
That humanity does not depend on how you were born.
It depends on the decisions you make when you have the power to do something... and you choose to use it to take care of others. 🌌❤️

James Buchanan Barnes
Alias
Winter Soldier
Age (Civil War)
Chronologically over 100 years old, though physically appears to be in his thirties due to cryostasis.
Affiliation
Former HYDRA agent.
Later an ally of the Avengers.
---
✦ Appearance
Bucky is tall, broad-shouldered, and of athletic build.
He has dark brown hair, usually long to his nape, and blue eyes that almost always look tired.
His left vibranium arm (later) is one of his most recognizable features.
Although his expression is usually serious, when he smiles, he conveys an unexpected warmth.
---
✦ Personality
Bucky is reserved.
Quiet.
Very observant.
He doesn't speak unless he has something to say.
For years he lived controlled by HYDRA, so it is hard for him to trust people and, above all, himself.
However, he also possesses a dry humor very similar to Steve's.
He is tremendously loyal.
And once he considers someone part of his family, he would do anything to protect them.
---
✦ Abilities
Thanks to the Super Soldier serum, he possesses strength, speed, stamina, and reflexes far superior to a normal human.
His metal arm gives him devastating strength and incredible precision in combat.
He is trained in infiltration, hand-to-hand combat, firearms, and military tactics.
---
✦ Relationship with Riko
The first encounter
When Steve introduces Bucky at the Tower, many keep their distance.
Not Riko.
He approaches.
He hands him a cup of coffee.
—Hello.
Bucky watches him with suspicion.
—Aren't you going to ask me anything?
—Not if you don't want to tell me.
Silence.
Bucky takes the cup.
That small gesture marks the beginning of their friendship.
---
The shared silence
There are entire days where they barely exchange words.
And yet, both enjoy each other's company.
They sit in the gym.
Or on the balcony.
Or in the kitchen.
They just... are.
Steve once finds them like this.
After twenty minutes, he asks:
—Have you guys been sitting here without talking all this time?
Both respond at the same time:
—Yes.
—And isn't it awkward?
Both respond again:
—No.
Steve smiles.
They were always similar.
---
Bucky understands the startles
One night, someone drops a tray in the kitchen.
Riko turns immediately, looking for an exit.
Bucky does the exact same thing.
Both stand there, looking at each other.
Neither says a word.
But both understand that the other still reacts as if danger could appear at any moment.
---
Training
Training with Bucky is frustrating.
Because he is never impressed.
Riko teleports.
Bucky changes direction.
Riko curves space.
Bucky adapts his attack.
After every fight, Bucky always finds an improvement.
He doesn't criticize.
He teaches.
—Next time, don't watch the attack.
Watch the attacker.
Riko starts applying that advice.
And improves a lot.
---
The metal arm
The first time Riko sees Bucky's arm up close, he asks quite naturally:
—Can I touch it?
Bucky blinks.
For years, people only looked at him with fear.
Never with innocent curiosity.
He nods.
Riko runs his fingers over the vibranium.
—It's incredible.
Bucky smiles for the first time that day.
---
The nightmares
Both have them.
Very different.
But just as intense.
Sometimes they find each other awake at four in the morning.
In the kitchen.
Without saying anything.
They make coffee.
They sit.
And wait for dawn.
Over time, that routine becomes almost a tradition.
---
When Bucky finds out about Pietro
Steve tries to act natural.
Natasha already knew.
Tony fakes surprise.
Bucky watches as Pietro puts an arm around Riko's shoulders.
Then he looks at Steve.
—How long?
Steve replies:
—Much longer than it took them to figure it out.
Bucky simply nods.
—Makes sense.
---
Bucky and Pietro
Surprisingly, they get along very well.
Pietro understands that Bucky needs space.
Bucky understands that Pietro needs to move.
They don't talk much.
But there is a very strong mutual respect.
Especially because both know what it means for HYDRA to try to decide who you are.
---
When Riko blames himself
After a mission where he fails to save everyone, Riko shuts himself away.
Bucky enters his room.
He doesn't try to convince him of anything.
He just leaves an old military dog tag on the table.
Riko looks at it.
—What is this?
—It reminds me of everyone I couldn't save.
Silence.
Then Bucky adds:
—And it also reminds me of why I keep getting up.
Riko treasures those words forever.
---
✦ What he admires most about Riko
Bucky knows how easy it would be to let pain define an entire life.
That's why he deeply admires that Riko, even with reasons to distrust the world, continues to choose to believe in people.
Not because he is naive.
Because he is brave.
And Bucky knows that kind of bravery is rare.
---
✦ Tidbits
Bucky and Riko practice shooting together. Riko is quite bad at first, and Bucky mocks him with such absolute seriousness that it's hard to tell if he's joking.
Riko usually sits next to Bucky during long trips. He says Bucky's silence "is comfortable."
When Bucky receives his new vibranium arm in Wakanda, Riko spends several minutes admiring the design and asking how it feels to move it. Bucky answers every question with patience that even surprises Steve.
If Riko disappears from a party because he feels overwhelmed, Bucky almost always knows where to find him without needing to look too hard.
Once Peter Parker asks Bucky why he and Riko talk so little. Bucky replies: "Because you don't always need to fill the silence." It takes Peter several years to understand that phrase.
---
What they really are
Steve taught Riko how to lead.
Tony, how to create.
Natasha, how to heal.
Thor, how to dream.
Bruce, how to understand.
Vision, how to reflect.
But Bucky taught him something very different:
That carrying scars doesn't mean you're condemned to live trapped in them.
And Riko, without meaning to, reminded Bucky that he could still form new bonds without fearing that his past would define every step of the present.
Both understand something that very few people can comprehend.
There are wounds that never disappear.
But there are also people who make them weigh a little less. 🌌⭐🤍

Pepper Potts
Close friend
❤️ Pepper Potts
Full Name
Virginia "Pepper" Potts
Age (Age of Ultron)
Around 40 years old.
Affiliation
CEO of Stark Industries (for much of the MCU).
Tony Stark's partner.
---
✦ Appearance
Pepper has a very natural elegance.
Shoulder-length blonde hair.
Light blue eyes.
She always maintains a confident, calm posture.
She usually wears impeccable executive attire, though outside of work she prefers simple, comfortable clothes.
When she enters a room, she conveys calm even in the midst of chaos.
And that is a talent very few people possess.
---
✦ Personality
Pepper is intelligent.
Patient.
Organized.
And much stronger than she appears.
While Tony solves problems by inventing things...
Pepper solves them by making everything work.
She is practical.
Empathetic.
And has an incredible ability to take care of people without making them feel incapable.
She doesn't need to shout.
Or impose authority.
A single look is enough to make Tony stop arguing...
Most of the time.
---
✦ Abilities
Pepper has no powers.
Her strength lies in her emotional intelligence, leadership, and ability to make decisions under pressure.
She is an excellent administrator, business strategist, and one of the few people capable of keeping Tony grounded.
---
✦ Relationship with Riko
The first meeting
Tony takes Riko to the Tower after New York.
Pepper greets him at the entrance.
Riko is nervous.
Very nervous.
Pepper smiles.
—Hello.
I'm Pepper.
Riko lets his guard down a little.
—Riko.
Tony interrupts.
—He's only staying for a few days.
Pepper looks at Tony.
Then at Riko.
And smiles with an expression that clearly says:
"Yes... sure."
---
The first dinner
Riko tries to help.
He ends up breaking a plate.
He apologizes about twenty times.
Pepper simply picks up the pieces.
—Don't worry.
Tony breaks more things in a week.
Tony protests from the dining room.
—That was only one time!
Pepper looks at him.
—Anthony.
Silence.
—... It was two.
---
She notices things Tony doesn't see
Pepper discovers right away that Riko has a habit of skipping meals when he's worried.
So she starts leaving prepared food for him in the refrigerator.
She never says it was her.
It just appears.
With a note.
> "Don't forget to eat."
Over time, Riko memorizes Pepper's handwriting.
---
When Riko gets sick
Riko rarely complains.
One day he has a fever.
He tries to hide it.
Pepper touches his forehead.
Five seconds later.
He is in bed.
With a blanket.
Hot tea.
Medicine.
And Tony receiving a call.
—Cancel everything.
Riko needs to rest.
Tony tries to protest.
Pepper looks at him.
Tony cancels absolutely everything.
---
Pepper and Tony
Pepper quickly discovers that Tony and Riko argue exactly the same way.
One afternoon she hears from the lab:
—That makes no sense!
—Of course it does!
—Physics says no!
—Then physics is boring!
Pepper sighs.
—I have two Tony Starks.
---
When he starts dating Pietro
Pepper notices almost immediately.
She sees how Riko smiles differently.
She sees how Pietro always ends up sitting next to him.
She says nothing.
She just waits.
When they finally make the relationship official...
Pepper shows up with a cake.
Riko looks at her in surprise.
—How did you know?
Pepper smiles.
—Honey...
We all knew.
---
The advice
Before an especially dangerous mission.
Pepper finds Riko nervous.
He asks her:
—How do you manage to bear Tony going out to fight?
Pepper remains silent for a few seconds.
Then she answers:
—I never stop being afraid.
The difference is that I learned that loving someone also means trusting that they will return.
Riko remembers those words every time Pietro runs off into danger.
---
When Tony and Riko argue
Pepper never takes sides immediately.
She listens to both.
Then she usually says something like:
—You are both right.
And you are both also being incredibly stubborn.
Both respond exactly the same way:
—I'm not stubborn!
Pepper smiles.
—Sure.
---
Christmas at the Tower
Pepper insists on decorating.
Tony protests.
Riko gets excited.
Peter helps.
Thor puts up a tree so huge it almost breaks the ceiling.
Pepper observes the disaster.
And smiles.
Because, for the first time in a long time...
The Tower truly feels like a home.
---
✦ What she admires most about Riko
Pepper knows very well the weight that guilt can have.
She saw it in Tony for years.
That's why she deeply admires that Riko never allows fear to keep him from helping others.
Even when he fails.
Even when he suffers.
He always tries again.
And that reminds her a lot of the best version of Tony.
---
✦ Trivia
Pepper always buys a birthday gift for Riko before even asking him what he wants. She says it's "impossible to get information out of him."
She is the only person who manages to convince Riko to buy new clothes when he insists on wearing the same jacket for months.
When Riko cooks with Peter, Pepper supervises from afar... mainly to avoid fires.
Riko calls her "Pep" affectionately. Tony protests saying that nickname is "exclusive." Pepper responds that she can share it.
If Tony forgets to eat while working, Pepper usually sends Riko to drag him out of the lab. Curiously, it works better than any alarm.
---
What they really are
Steve taught Riko about duty.
Tony, creativity.
Natasha, resilience.
Thor, hope.
Bruce, understanding.
Wanda, chosen family.
Pietro, love.
But Pepper taught him something much more mundane and, precisely for that reason, very valuable:
That taking care of someone doesn't always mean saving their life.
Sometimes it means remembering that they eat breakfast.
Forcing them to rest.
Listening to how their day was.
Or leaving a cup of tea on the table without asking questions.
And for Riko, who grew up surrounded by heroes capable of moving mountains, discovering that affection could also be expressed in those little gestures was one of the most important lessons of his entire life.
Over time, he stops seeing Pepper as "Tony's girlfriend."
He begins to see her as the person who turned a huge tower of steel and glass into a true home. ❤️🏡

Clint Barton
Close friend
🏹 Clint Barton
Full Name
Clinton Francis Barton
Alias
Hawkeye
Age (Age of Ultron)
Around 44 years old.
Affiliation
Avengers
---
✦ Appearance
Clint has an unassuming look.
Short brown hair.
Blue eyes.
Athletic build.
He always seems more relaxed than the rest of the team.
He usually wears practical, comfortable clothing, and during missions, he uses his signature tactical uniform along with his compound bow and quiver of special arrows.
He has a habit of crossing his arms when he hears others arguing, observing the scene as if he already knows how it will end.
---
✦ Personality
Clint is sarcastic.
Patient.
Very observant.
And surprisingly calm.
He has a dry sense of humor that tends to emerge just when the situation is most tense.
Unlike other Avengers, he doesn't feel the need to prove anything.
He knows exactly who he is.
He also possesses a strong protective instinct.
A large part of his decisions are motivated by his desire to return to his family after every mission.
---
✦ Skills
Clint is considered one of the best marksmen on the planet.
He masters the bow with almost impossible precision.
He is also an expert in hand-to-hand combat, infiltration, espionage, and military tactics.
His true talent lies in keeping a cool head even when everything around him is falling apart.
---
✦ Relationship with Riko
The first meeting
After the Battle of New York.
Riko expects to meet a legendary superhero.
Instead...
He finds a man sitting in the kitchen making coffee.
—Are you Hawkeye?
Clint looks up.
—Depends.
Are you a journalist?
Riko laughs.
In that moment he thinks:
"I think I’m going to like him."
And he’s not wrong.
---
The most normal Avenger
Riko always ends up looking for Clint when he needs to decompress.
Because Clint doesn't talk about strategy.
Or science.
Or the end of the world.
He talks about fishing.
About gardening.
About bad movies.
About recipes.
And, curiously...
That helps a lot.
---
The training
Clint insists on teaching him aim.
—I’m never going to use a bow.
—I know.
—Then...
—Because I want you to learn patience.
At first, Riko misses every shot.
Months later, he manages to hit one.
Clint smiles as if he had won an Olympic medal.
---
Clint discovers a problem
During a mission.
Riko teleports a group of civilians.
Then another.
And another.
When he finishes...
He staggers.
He almost falls to his knees.
Clint is the first to hold him up.
—Why didn't you say you were exhausted?
Riko responds with a smile.
—There were still people left.
Clint says nothing.
But that answer breaks his heart.
---
The Barton Farm
After Sokovia.
Clint takes Riko to meet his family.
Riko is very nervous.
He doesn't know how to behave.
He thinks he’s going to make everyone uncomfortable.
As soon as he walks in...
The children surround him.
They ask him twenty questions a minute.
They want to see his powers.
They want to play.
They want him to tell them stories.
By the end of the day, Riko is completely exhausted.
Clint laughs.
—You survived.
—I’m not sure.
---
Laura Barton
Laura notices right away that Riko asks for permission for everything.
Even to open the refrigerator.
That breaks her heart.
She starts treating him exactly like any other guest of the family.
And little by little, Riko stops feeling like an outsider.
---
The most important advice
One night.
They are both sitting on the porch.
Riko asks:
—How do you keep fighting when you have a family?
Clint looks toward the house.
He hears his children laughing.
Then he responds:
—Because I want to go back to them.
I don't fight for the war.
I fight for the road back.
Riko never forgets that phrase.
---
When he starts dating Pietro
Clint is the first to tease them.
Every time he sees them together...
He makes a comment.
—What are you doing?
—Nothing.
—Uh-huh.
That looks like a pretty romantic "nothing."
They both protest.
Clint keeps laughing.
---
The Sokovia moment
In this timeline, Riko saves Clint and Pietro by deflecting the bullets that were going to kill them.
When it’s all over...
Clint approaches.
He doesn't say thank you.
He simply places a hand on Riko's shoulder.
And says:
—Now we're even.
Riko smiles.
—We never were.
Clint responds:
—I know.
But let me feel like we are.
---
Peter Parker
When Peter arrives at the Tower...
Clint watches as Riko helps him settle in.
It reminds him a lot of himself with the new recruits at SHIELD.
One afternoon he comments to Natasha:
—Look at that.
Natasha smiles.
—What?
—He’s not the new kid anymore.
Now he’s the one making others feel welcome.
Natasha looks at Riko.
And nods with pride.
---
✦ What he admires most about Riko
Clint knows how easy it would be for someone with such power to forget about ordinary people.
But Riko does exactly the opposite.
He always asks first:
"Where are the civilians?"
And for Clint...
That is the question that defines a true Avenger.
---
✦ Trivia
Clint and Riko have an absurd competition: Clint tries to hit impossible shots and Riko tries to teleport them just before they impact. Tony kicked them out of the lab after an arrow appeared inside a very expensive machine.
When Riko visits the farm, Clint's children call him "the space wizard." He insists he’s not a wizard. They ignore him.
Clint taught Riko how to light a campfire and roast marshmallows. Riko burned the first one. Clint said it was part of the learning process.
If a mission goes especially wrong, Clint often invites Riko to the farm for a weekend. He never tells him it's to clear his head. He simply asks: "Are you coming?"
Clint claims Riko has "the worst poker face on the team." Riko responds that Clint has "the worst face for lying that everything is fine." They both laugh because they are both right.
---
What they really are
Steve taught Riko leadership.
Tony, innovation.
Natasha, silent strength.
Bruce, acceptance.
Thor, greatness.
Wanda, chosen family.
Pietro, love.
But Clint taught him something profoundly human:
That, at the end of the day, a hero's greatest achievement isn't winning the battle.
It’s having a place to return to when it ends.
And thanks to Clint and the Barton family, Riko understood that peace isn't always found in saving the world.
Sometimes it is found in a simple house, with children running through the garden, a dog barking in the distance, and someone asking you if you want seconds of dessert. 🏹🌌💙

Happy Hogan
Friend
🚗 Happy Hogan
Full Name
Harold "Happy" Hogan
Alias
Simply...
Happy.
Age (Age of Ultron)
Around 45.
Occupation
Head of Security at Stark Industries, chauffeur, and one of Tony Stark’s most loyal friends.
---
✦ Appearance
Happy has a sturdy, strong build.
Short dark hair.
Brown eyes.
Light stubble that he keeps well-groomed.
He almost always wears a black suit when working, though he prefers comfortable clothes in his downtime.
He has that permanent expression of someone who has already seen too many disasters... and knows he’ll probably see another one today.
---
✦ Personality
Happy is straightforward.
Practical.
Loyal to a fault.
He doesn't talk much.
But when he does, it’s usually to say something everyone needed to hear.
He has a very dry wit and surprising patience.
Though that patience mysteriously vanishes every time Riko, Peter, or Pietro enter Tony's lab.
---
✦ Skills
Happy has no powers.
He is highly trained in hand-to-hand combat, security, tactical driving, and VIP protection.
He also has a special talent for surviving Tony Stark's madness.
Which is probably his greatest superpower.
---
✦ Relationship with Riko
The First Meeting
Tony brings Riko to the Tower.
Happy looks him up and down.
—"How old are you?"
—"Seventeen."
Happy looks at Tony.
—"No."
Tony frowns.
—"No what?"
—"You can’t keep bringing teenagers home."
Tony points at Riko.
—"He showed up on his own!"
—"That doesn't help your defense."
Pepper starts to laugh.
---
The Official Chauffeur
Whenever someone needs to go somewhere...
Happy ends up driving.
And he almost always has to take Riko.
At first, the trips are silent.
Then Riko starts asking questions.
Later, Happy starts telling stories about Tony when he was younger.
In no time, the rides become a tradition.
---
The Involuntary Bodyguard
Happy insists on accompanying Riko when he goes out alone.
Riko protests.
—"I can open portals."
Happy replies.
—"And I can drive."
They both cross their arms.
Tony walks by.
—"Happy’s right."
Riko protests even more.
---
The Parking Lot Disaster
One afternoon.
Riko tries to practice teleporting a car.
Happy catches him just in time.
—"No."
—"Just once."
—"No."
—"It’ll go well."
—"No."
Five minutes later...
The car appears on the roof of the building.
Happy closes his eyes.
He breathes deeply.
—"I'm not going to ask."
---
When Riko arrives injured
Happy never invades his space.
But he always turns up with a first aid kit.
—"Sit down."
—"I'm fine."
—"You're lying just like Tony."
Riko sighs.
And lets himself be patched up.
---
Peter and Riko
When Peter starts visiting the Tower.
Happy discovers something.
Now he has two teenagers.
And one of them can teleport.
He starts getting new gray hairs.
---
Pietro makes everything worse
Because now there are three.
Peter.
Pietro.
Riko.
The three of them together are a disaster.
One day, Happy finds Pietro running through the halls, Peter hanging from the ceiling, and Riko sitting in mid-air.
He observes the scene for a few seconds.
Then he turns around.
—"I am not paid enough."
---
The First Christmas
Happy buys a gift for everyone.
Including Riko.
He is surprised.
—"You thought of me too?"
Happy replies completely naturally.
—"You live in the Tower."
"It would be weird not to."
It’s a simple sentence.
But it takes Riko several minutes to respond.
Because nobody had ever included him so naturally before.
---
When he starts dating Pietro
Happy finds them kissing in a hallway.
The three freeze.
Happy watches them.
Five seconds.
Ten seconds.
Fifteen.
Finally, he says:
—"Well."
"At least you stopped pretending."
And keeps walking.
The two remain completely motionless for a full minute.
---
When Tony gets worried
After a difficult mission.
Tony spends hours trying to locate Riko.
Happy finds him pacing around the lab.
—"Hasn't he shown up yet?"
Tony shakes his head.
At that moment...
Riko enters through a portal.
Covered in dust.
Happy sighs in relief.
Tony tries to scold him.
Happy puts a hand on his shoulder.
—"Hug him first."
"Then yell at him."
Tony replies:
—"I'm not going to hug him."
Five seconds later...
He's hugging him.
Happy smiles.
He knew it would happen.
---
✦ What he admires most about Riko
Happy has met people with immense power.
Millionaires.
Geniuses.
Superheroes.
But few people retain Riko's humility.
He never brags.
He never looks down on anyone.
He always appreciates small gestures.
And Happy thinks that says much more about someone than any extraordinary ability.
---
✦ Trivia
Happy is the one who teaches Riko to drive. Tony wanted to do it. Pepper forbade it "for obvious reasons."
Every time Riko teleports into the parking lot without warning, Happy threatens to give him a symbolic fine. He never collects it.
When Peter and Riko cause trouble, Happy always knows Pietro was involved... even if no one can prove it.
Happy carries granola bars in the car because he discovered that Riko often forgets to eat when he’s focused.
If someone new comes to the Tower, Happy always introduces Riko by saying: "Don't worry if he disappears in front of you. I'm already used to it."
---
What they really are
Steve taught Riko how to lead.
Tony, how to create.
Natasha, how to heal.
Bruce, how to understand.
Thor, how to dream.
Clint, how to return home.
But Happy taught him something that seems small, and yet, it is huge:
That you don't need to be a superhero to take care of someone.
Sometimes, it's enough to drive them somewhere.
Wait for them after a mission.
Prepare a first aid kit before they ask for it.
Or make sure they have a granola bar in their backpack because you know they’ll forget to have lunch.
And over time, Happy stops seeing Riko as "Tony's kid."
He starts seeing him as another one of the Stark family kids.
Not because they share blood.
But because, after so many years of coming and going from the Tower, he could no longer imagine that place without hearing Riko's voice arguing with Tony from the lab or laughing alongside Peter and Pietro in the hallways. 🚗💙🌌
