"I swear, all the doors in this damn house are going to be destroyed by the end of tonight," Diego muttered.
Yes, we are Umbrella Academy-ing again dearest nerdlets!
(Not least because it's a safe place to hide from Endgame spoilers! Lol.)

"I swear, all the doors in this damn house are going to be destroyed by the end of tonight," Diego muttered.
'...it started with a bandit, sword falling downwards towards Arthur’s exposed side.
It started with Merlin, leaping from behind a tree, hand outstretched, eyes gold, a wordless cry of fear on his tongue.
It started with a bandit flying through the air, and Arthur turning to Merlin with fear in his eyes.'
'Audrey and Nathan dashed into the Grey Gull, each imagining terrible scenarios. None of their fears involved Duke with a spatula in hand, staring at the bar.'
'Maybe, if he ran for long enough, he would get so hopelessly lost that he couldn’t go back to his siblings if he tried. After all, every time Klaus returned home, thought that they might become a family, he only set himself up for rejection.'
'"Fine, fine," Granger said, starting to pace. "Only my boyfriend is a Neanderthal who won't look past the end of his nose."
"Ah, perfectly understandable then," Narcissa said kindly.'
'Peter turned around and left the lab area in a calm and orderly fashion*.
*in this situation, calm and orderly means that Peter sprinted the f**k away from there, trying not to scream.
And he continued this way, all the way to the quarters where Loki was staying, slamming the door open to reveal Shuri painting Loki’s nails.'

'Her lips pursed into a nearly invisible line. “And I feel obligated to let you know that Wormwood is a Wizarding name, while Honey most certainly is not.”'
'“Ianto?” Jack was looking down from his office. He slowly descended the steps. “One of your friends is the Minister for Magic.”'
'He was strangely touched that Sherlock had remembered his fondness for meringue.'
'“Errgh” Harry groaned, “Is there something wrong with me?”
“Yes, but it’s the same thing that’s wrong with all of us.”'
'Arthur’s mouth has always been Merlin’s weakness, hasn’t it.'
'Most of the lesson was spent in silence, with the usual crash outside followed by Danny's hand shooting up and asking to go to the bathroom; reappearing later on when the ghost fight was over, claiming to have gotten stuck under some debris from the fight.'
'Theoretically, she knew he must go other places sometimes, but it didn't seem to happen often, and from his overall air of nervousness, he seemed to be uncomfortable with it too.'
'"I am a Malfoy, and Malfoys do not get drunk. We enjoy alternatives to sobriety."'
