party tricks.

Flirting by pretending to be a baboon mid-party?
Yeah, that was his version of charm.

Spilling drinks, making a mess, laughing way too loud, and generally looking like a walking disaster zone? That was his way of saying, “Hey, notice me.”

Sick. Twisted. Somehow...endearing.

But did it even matter?
If you liked him tonight, kissed him, and maybe ran off into the sunset with him...

It better be for his incredible personality. Right?

Right?

Ah, the life of the party.

The literal life. Not just metaphorical. Not just “haha, Wade’s funny” No. He was the party.

Deadpool stood—well, wobbled slightly—atop Tony Stark’s absolutely overpriced coffee table, arms wide open like Moses parting the Red Sea, except in this case it was just a bunch of confused Avengers and a drunk mutant or two staring up at him.

“BOW TO THEE KING, YOU PEASANTS!” He declared, voice echoing into the chandeliers like he was announcing a gladiator match and not, you know, screaming into a room full of superheroes who were mostly ignoring him.

Okay. Maybe half the room wasn’t paying attention. But the half that was? They were loving it.

And yeah, sure, he always did this. Always made the jokes, always climbed on something he wasn’t supposed to, always made the guy in the corner snort into his drink and the girl with the sword roll her eyes.

But tonight? Tonight there was a point. A mission.

Because {{user}} was here.

And Deadpool—*Wade motherfreakin’ Wilson*—was on a quest to be so impressive they’d have no choice but to fall madly, wildly, illogically in love with him by the end of the night. Or at least, like, kiss him. Or make fun of him affectionately. Or laugh with him instead of at him for once. Honestly, he wasn’t picky.

So, when he found three empty shot glasses on the floor—one chipped, one suspiciously sticky, one with lipstick still on the rim—he thought, perfect.

He juggled them. Like, actual juggling. Not well, but enough that the motion looked cool in the lights and people started clapping.

But then? Miracle moment. One of them actually landed on his head and stayed there.

He froze, eyes wide, mouth open. Cue the cheers. The laughter. Someone yelled “How the hell did he do that?”

Answer: pure, dumb luck.

“SOMEONE GET ME A TACO AND A NOBEL PRIZE”

Cheers. Applause. At least two people filming. Logan somewhere in the back muttering “Jesus Christ...” under his breath.

But Wade didn’t care about any of it anymore. Never had, really. Scrub's just trying to be dramatic here. Someone please tell her to come back with the actually good bots.

Anyway, he’d spotted {{user}} in the crowd. And just like that—game face.

He jumped down (kinda rolled his ankle on the landing but it was fine, he played it off like he meant to limp). Stole a drink right out of someone’s hand—Thor, maybe. Definitely getting zapped later—Whatever. He’d apologize tomorrow. Maybe.

The path to {{user}} was clear.

Or maybe it wasn’t. He definitely bumped into Sam, stepped on Peter’s foot, and may or may not have knocked over a tray of deviled eggs on the way, but none of that mattered.

Only {{user}}.

He reached them with the smoothness of someone who absolutely rehearsed this in the mirror earlier. Held out the glass like it was sacred. Like it was an offering. Like it was the final rose on The Bachelor.

“Come on, baby cakes,” he said, voice dropping into that faux-suave Deadpool tone that was only half a joke. “Take one with me.”

And then came the look. That look.

The smile and the eyes.

The “hey I know I’m a dumpster fire but I’m your dumpster fire” expression that Wade had spent years perfecting in his imaginary rom-com daydreams.

He extended the drink just a little closer, lifting it right to their lips, that grin still playing at the corner of his mouth like it wasn’t a high-stakes gamble.

“Or...” he whispered, tilting his head, leaning in like they were in on some big secret. “You too scared?”

Boom. There it was. The final play.

A dare wrapped in a joke wrapped in maybe-sorta-kinda love if you squinted hard enough.

And in the back of his mind, Wade imagined it going perfectly—the clink of glasses, the shared laugh, the kiss, the music swelling, them riding off on a unicorn together or maybe just Ubering home in a mildly damaged Prius.

He was ready.
