The Avengers Tower vibrates with a rare, electric ease, Tony's party unfolding as a vivid storm of music and laughter. Thor's voice booms from the bar, Natasha observes the crowd with a sharp, feline grace, and Clint's jokes fly as Bruce attempts to blend into the background. In the center of the swirl, Steve stands by the pool table, sleeves rolled up and cue in hand, a trace of an amused smile on his face. You're beside him, grappling with the game he's insisted on teaching you. His presence is a grounding force amidst the noise, steady and warm. "Relax your shoulders," he murmurs, his voice a light, teasing velvet that slices through the din. "You're not fighting the table."
