•Sharing A Bed•

Tony Stark•
Once and for all – Tony is a delight to have in bed as long as it for sex. All poses, some crazy kinks (everything per agreement, nothing forced) lots of laugh, moans and pleasure. But actual sleep – is off the table. Don't be mad this is just how things are. Of all people Tony is no stranger for being neglected and this is how he protects himself. Bed is his last bastion. You may take place in his heart, have you own room in his place, even keep your toothbrushes together, but his bed is off limits for a few years. And he's strangely casual with that like he's keeping some sort of schedule with right day marked. So if you manage to stay with him for at least two years and prove yourself worthy of trust one day he just move some of his and your things in one room and finally fall asleep with you the way he always wanted – his face in your boobs.

Thor Odinson•
Sharing bed with Thor is glorious. Also hot, loud and not quite as comfortable as it may seems. First Thor produced the ungodly amount of body heat; second, he really loves to keep you near him (or on top of him or under him). There is no single chance to escape from his grip even for a moment. Luckily Thor usually sticks with one or two poses during night, so you relevantly safe. Third problem is noise; brace yourself because Thor snores a lot, loud and constantly. So if you're up for heat, loud snore and constant pressure of his quite large form – good for you, if not – well at least try to arrange sleeping positions and bring ear plugs. But despite all inconvenience Thor is gentle and caring in bed. He love to hold you in his arms, play with your hair and let you play with his, he may even ask you to braid his hair once in a while and braid yours without asking. He'll also appreciate if you give him a shoulder rub or full back massage but please don't ask him to return the favor for your own safety.

Loki Laufeyson•
Like Pietro bed sharing with Loki is both dangerous and fun. Loki loves to cuddle and will find any way to touch some part of your skin. Until he goes to sleep it's all touching and talking and kissing and cuddling. After that it's all being careful in bed. You can't move around a lot, can't make to much noise and can't do much of anything because of Loki's light sleeping. Once you wake him up you never hear the end of it. He gets all cranky and moody is he doesn't get enough sleep and he takes it out on you.

Bruce Banner•
Staring bed with Bruce seems like fairytale – meaning it's unlikely to happen in real life. Yes, Bruce is tender and caring person but cuddling and spooning – are off the table for oblivious reasons such as "the other Guy may not like it" and trust issues. For Dr. Banner "rest in bed" means "place where I drop my near dead from lack of sleeping body" and he doesn't need or want anyone near him at this moment. Honestly you can sneak in his bed but to no results at all. However if you do so you may catch some sweet time in the morning before he fully awake and once again facing cruel reality of his existence. One way to actually share a bed with Bruce is to persuade him to stay with you until you fall asleep and stay awake until he falls asleep.

Clint Barton•
Clint isn't one to raise a fuss about bed sharing. He's almost too casual about it. Also – extremely protective. He's a big spoon, a hugger, a guy-on-top-of-you-no-matter-that. Seriously – every time you two share a bed he makes sure that you within his arms lock and asleep before him. He can literally wait for hours, gently stroking you hair, massaging your back or arms until you finally and peacefully sleeping. It may lead to complications such as if you cannot fall asleep and just pretending to be he'll stay awake for far too long to feeling good in the morning. On the other hand Clint is always up for cuddling, kissing and touching at general. And once in a while he'll stay in bed with you till mid-day just for the sake of being lazy and happy together.

Steve Rogers•
Bed sharing with Steve has two major and completely different phases. Step one – "Anxious Awkwardness" or "two different sides of one bed and huge space (or pillow wall) between two of you", he may also wait until you fall asleep before even go to bed. If two of you go to bed together - expect some awkward chuckling and awkward silence as well. But after no specific amount of time second phase kicks in and it's nothing like first. No more different sides, no more pillow walls and no more space between you two. You must stay within his arms reach and even better – always in some physical contact. Whatever it's - hand holding, spooning, hugging or buts touching he's not picky, just be here for him. Steve needs to know you're near him because it makes him feel safe and...well - loved. He already spend more than half of the century alone inside hold and dark ice, so give him some company and body warmth, your soldier deserved it.

Bucky Barnes•
Bucky was reluctant to get in bed with you and spend the night. Once you convinced him to at least lay in the bed with you it was wonderful. Bucky is a big,warm,cuddly bear. He loves to snuggle with you as long as you're on the side of his regular arm. Because of Bucky's no nightmares he tends to punch the air or grasp things. When he wakes up from the terrors he the first thing he does is make sure you're alright.

Pietro Maximoff•
Sharing bed with Pietro can be both fun and dangerous. He loves to cuddle and openly craves for skin to skin contact. It's all lovely - kissing, touching and hugging until he falls asleep. Pietro is a worst possible case of restless sleeper. He constantly moving, turning and shifting from side to side. If you think you can just sleep on the edge of the bed you are gravely mistaken, because even in sleep Pietro search for skin contact. That generally means you will be shifting, turning and moving with him, under him and on top of him. On top of that Pietro is incredibly heavy sleeper so it's nearly impossible to wake him. So brace yourself for bear hugs through night and make sure your hair isn't easily tangled. You will be thankful in the morning.

Natasha Romanoff•
If situation press you to share a bed with Natasha (meaning she's not the one who invited you) make sure she knows about it. No, really - make sure. And for you own sake - don't even think of sneaking into her bed unannounced! You probably won't be able to do this without waking her and she will be grumpy or if you manage to sneak in you're up to the nasty surprises such as punch in the throat or chokehold. Years of training and constant danger lead Natasha to conclusion that "safety is in lonely bed". It's not that she's not appreciate you near her, it just need a few adjustment before could actually happen. Aside of this Natasha cherish every moment with you. She loves having you in her arms, nuzzle your neck or just watch you peacefully dozing and play with your hair. One thing for sure - Natasha always place a light kiss on your forehead before falling asleep.

Wanda Maximoff•
Wanda is no stranger for bed sharing. First, she used to it since childhood, second – waking up from nightmare next to someone makes her realize what that was just a dream and awful time with HYDRA is over and she's now safe and loved. So she's comfortable about it. Problem is – you may be not so comfortable because of her powers. Also - hairs. And if you can simply ask her to put her locks in a braid or even offer to braid them (she'll be pleased) mentioning of her powers will lead to big complications. You see – Wanda is very confident in her power against her enemies and very nervous toward her friends and loved ones. She's been constantly reminded of just how intimidating and influential her powers can be even unintentional. So last thing Wanda need is to learn that her power give you a bad sleeping time and unhealthy dose of nightmares. And even if you don't tell her right away she'll know eventually and well be very upset. But fear not – you can avoid the whole situation completely by making sure that Wanda (and you) happy before you two go to bed. Kissing, cuddling, massage, talks even movie and snacks – anything to keep you both happy and relax will do. She still will be influence you dream but this way you up for something pleasant. Like unicorns. Yes, perfect pink singing unicorns and talking magical mirrors. Maybe don't put Disney movie next time.
