[Hope you Avengers (and girlfriend) weren't looking to sleep late, because Tony's taking a chainsaw to the walls. Didn't even know you wanted renovations, did you? You're welcome. And you're in luck, because the music drowns out the other noise.]

[Various other happenings are of course occurring in the ever-busy Avengers Temporary HQ, and this is the place for them, so have at it. Or wait a few hours and Tony's dragging you all to see the new "exhibit." ;D ]

((OOC: Mingle-style! Use this prompt or not as you like. What's your Avenger doing today?))

[This is so bad for his super soldier hearing so bad. Steve had gone out for an early morning run and then returned to the apartment for a shower. It's cut short in the middle, though, when he hears that blasted screeching.]

[Mostly towel dried, he hurriedly changes into his clothes and rushes out with his hands clapped over his ears. He doesn't know what he was expecting--an attack, maybe?--but yeah, this wasn't it.] Stark!

	[Tony cuts the chainsaw when he sees the angry damp man headed his way, but does nothing to the blasting music. He hands Steve a blueprint and then proceeds to hike it up, so the paper is blocking Steve's face.] There, perfect! [He's shouting over the music, but who's counting?] Hold it right there.

[ BEFORE THE MUSIC STARTS Bruce is in the shower, doing his usual shower thing - with one exception. There's a little bit of residual nostalgia from the karaoke party and if ~~your name is Tony Stark~~ you happen to break into the bathroom and listen very carefully, you might get to hear Bruce quietly singing a few bars of an old but classic song.

---

SOMETIME AFTER ~~BEING MORTALLY EMBARRASSED~~ Bruce can be found in the living room, poring over a few documents spread across the coffee table. His expression is not the happiest, partly because the music blasting is atrocious and partly because he's really not sure what he's doing in terms of trying to write a lesson plan.

Halp? ]

	[ There are many many things Bruce expects to see when walking out of a bathroom after a shower wrapped in nothing but a towel: An empty hallway, for one. Or maybe just pitch darkness because it's the middle of the night and that's when no one is around. That's why there still a bit of a melody being hummed under his breath as he opens the door and steps out. ] (Reply to this) (Parent)

[being the only female in an apartment filled with men, all of them leaking testosterone in some form or another has been trying for Jane. Just a bit.
