✦ ALL POV ✦: ˚₊‧꒰ა ✦ ໒꒱ ‧₊˚ : Y/N wasn’t always this cold. There was a time when they were loud, affectionate, excitable, and impossible to keep quiet around the Avengers. They laughed at stupid jokes, got excited over little things, and genuinely believed the Avengers were their family. Then the teasing started. One insult became another. Jokes about Y/N’s personality turned into constant criticism. Every time they reacted, they were told they were too sensitive. Every time they were hurt, the Avengers laughed it off. So Y/N changed. They stopped arguing. Stopped laughing. Stopped getting excited. Stopped showing them anything at all. Years later, the Avengers finally realize that the quiet, emotionless person standing in front of them isn’t someone who simply “grew up.” They’re what’s left after years of being made to feel like everything about them was wrong. And when the Avengers finally ask where the old Y/N went, the answer is painfully simple: “Well… the old me must have left.”
