"What movie are we watching?" Clint says, because if you let Marlo and Asher go at it they will just keep right on doing that. 

Deadpool seems to not have gotten over being stunned at the availability of cuddles. He’s not even eating his ridiculous popcorn.

"The Martian," Natasha says, her eyes still closed.

"I don't think it would be that bad if someone attacked anyway," Asher grumbles. "Ungoliant here would be wearing spandex. His ass looks great in spandex."

Marlo raises an eyebrow but doesn't actually comment. 

If Deadpool is running a cuddle deficit then Sasha can be very cuddly indeed.

"I would rather we not get attacked either way. Movie?"

Movie!

Asher ponders how to cuddle Deadpool, since there's a Spidey in the way, and Deadpool is wearing a mask so Asher can't pet his hair.. Maybe if they smoosh together really closely his arm can go around both of them.

When the lights go down, there’s some shuffling around, and suddenly there’s hair to pet.

Then Asher will pet his hair! This is very nice.

hfgfbnmfnmmmmm

Deadpool will just make quiet incoherent mumbling noises in Sasha’s ear for a while. Great. Excellent. Yes.

(There’s a line where the hair gives way to scarring, a little ways past the center of his skull.)

Asher touches it and sees if there's a change in the tone of the quiet incoherent mumbling noises.

These are really very good noises. Sasha's head goes on Deadpool's shoulder. 

(He might need to rewatch the movie at some point when he's paying more attention to it, but the point was never really the movie.) 

When Asher’s fingers stray to the scars there’s a very quiet gasp, and he tenses up where he’s leaning against Sasha.

He’s dead quiet, for a moment, until he realizes that Asher’s hand is still there, and he starts to breathe again.

Huh.

Asher touches the scarred area very deliberately.

(He's seen the Martian before. He knows the entire plot.)

Slowly — very slowly — he starts to relax, again. His breathing evens out.

He stil twitches, a little, when Asher’s fingertips catch on an odd ridge or move to a new place, but he doesn’t go so rigid.

Sasha keeps cuddling him through all of this. 

Asher's touch is slow and cautious and very very gentle. 

He's not paying a whole lot of attention to the movie.

He relaxes him, bit by bit.

He relaxes him enough, in fact, that when the lights start to come on again, he’s fallen asleep.

The unscarred half of his face is...pretty. He apparently puts eyeliner on his good eye under the mask, for reasons one can only guess at.

The scarred half is deep red and shining and ridged in odd places, pitted in others.

Awwwwwwwww. Sleepy murderer.

Nobody wears a mask because they want to be seen. Sasha tries to wake him up gently. 

“Nnnn—”

“—nnooooh fuck.”

His limbs flail in all directions, and then he’s on the floor. Oops.

Oh no he's cute. 

"You took a nap."

"You're cute." He hands Deadpool back his mask. 

“No! Nope! Totally not cute! Edgy as fuck!”

He pulls the mask back on.
