Vision has no hair anywhere on his body–no armpit hair, no eyebrows, no eyelashes. No fingernails. His skin tastes like metal. Sometimes, he forgets to breathe for minutes or hours at a time.

Captain Marvel smells like burning. When you touch her, your hand comes away cold because she’s absorbed your body heat. If she gets cut, she bleeds light. She can tell you what the inside of an explosion feels like.

Bruce Banner vomits after de-hulking. His skin is always red and peeling. He looks sick, like he has a fever, and he ingests more medication than actual food. There are blisters on his lips.

Tony Stark has a huge, sunken scar on his sternum where the arc reactor was removed and his chest aches each time he takes a breath. He has callouses in odd places–so does the whole team, really–and there is a permanent bald spot on the back of his head where it has been cut open every time he gets thrown around in his suit.

Spider-Man sometimes forgets which way is up–if you put him in a room with identical walls, floor, and ceiling, he couldn’t tell you which is which. His hands and feet are prickly to the touch, even through his costume. He is very nearsighted.

The Scarlet Witch has no sense of boundaries; if you can’t tell she’s spying on your thoughts, why should she stop? She doesn’t do it out of any malicious intent, just out of curiosity and convenience. She never loses arguments.

Thor speaks about events that happened thousands of years ago as if they were last week. Cats arch their backs and stare at him. Something about him–his eyes, or his skin, or the way he moves–seems slightly off, like he doesn’t belong on Earth at all.

stuff like that.

Bucky struggles with aphasia and has speech pathology issues from the head injury that caused his amnesia (because let’s be honest, retrograde amnesia -without- traumatic brain injury is just a cop-out.) It’s not like he ever really had to talk while he was the winter soldier, anyway, so nobody really noticed or cared.

Erik Lensherr is consistently iron-deficient and has to take supplements because some of it gets caught in the crossfire when he uses his powers, so he bruises really easily. He’s almost constantly disoriented balance-wise, and sometimes he wakes up with many, many small coins stuck to him.

Charles HATES hospitals. He can’t deal with the sheer amount of people pleading with god for the pain to go away. Sometimes, without realizing, he answers questions people haven’t asked yet. Sometimes, he flinches a bit for no apparent reason, when people think just a little too loudly.
