FUCK*, MARRY, OR KILL
a game with a twist




You know the game: now, let’s dabble in a version that’s a little bit unusual.

how to play
○ Do the comment do.
○ Folks line up to say whether they would fuck* (*kiss, if your character's underage or you're not into R-rated dialogue), marry, or kill your guy.
○ Rinse. Repeat. ♾️

[ The Raft is so far removed from the rest of the world- of course he's the one who has to break it all to Zemo. He hates this. ]

There was an incident. Something I stepped into with... some people. Because everyone was in danger, and we needed to step up and stop it.

[His eyebrows raise at incident. And the more Bucky explains (in the vaguest way possible), the easier it is to connect the dots with the previous, scattered murmurs he'd been hearing through various channels.]

You don't say.

[Yeah alright, he's being obnoxiously vague, but it's hard to find the words to even explain it.]

I'm an Avenger now.

[And his face falls. Words escape him. He just... stares, then squints, then tilts his head slightly to one side as if trying to parse out what's just reached his ears.

There's a deep inhale, then he moves to sit down-- except he's already been seated. This whole time. On the edge of his paltry excuse for a bed.

He keeps looking to Bucky, like he's silently asking for something more than I'm an Avenger now. And it takes him more than a few moments to bring himself to say anything in response to such a revelation.]


You're joking.

[He presses his lips together, crossing his arms. He's not gonna look at Zemo just to see some kind of disappointed look on his face.]

Is it so hard to believe that I could be one?

[The shock, the disappointment. Zemo can’t cover any of that up, can’t muster the energy to even try. Not after being sucker punched with horrible development after horrible development in such quick succession.]

No. [He shakes his head.] Just know you’re better than that.

[He doesn't know what's so damn disappointing about it. Why Zemo of all people would even have the right to be disappointed after everything he's done. Shock, he can understand. But the rest of it?

It's like Sam being petty over a name.

Better than what? Being there when needed? Helping people? Working together with a team who wants to do good? Seemed just fine when I was teaming up with you.

[And there's another one. So brutal it knocks the air straight out of his lungs.

All Zemo can do is stare, mouth slightly agape, rendered utterly speechless. There's no way to come back from that, not unless he wants to spit something he'll truly regret later on.]

[ Is it brutal, or is it the absolute truth? Working with Sam, being Avengers adjacent seemed perfectly okay with Zemo when it suited him.]

Yeah. That's right. When it worked for you it was fine. You welcomed it. You wanted it.

Don't worry, Sam's not interested in me following my own path either. Maybe the two of you can buddy up. Just tell him you don't agree with me and I'm sure he'll pull you out for missions again.
