Which Avenger Is Your ideal flatmate?

Early disclaimer: there are no spoilers in this post but we may have still been crying about Infinity War when we wrote it.

The results are in from the Ideal Flatmate survey on which Avenger people would be most keen to share their house with, and the winner was…the Hulk!?

 

Yep, not Bruce Banner but the Code Green Machine! We were pretty surprised too…it seems like a lot of people would be willing to overlook the Hulk’s – ahem – anger issues in favour of having someone around who is always up for deterring unwanted callers. Or…maybe we’re all just jealous of when Thor got to be the Strongest Avenger’s roomie in Ragnarok?

Astonishingly there weren’t many people keen on sharing space with the God of Thunder, most likely after seeing how his previous Midgardian roommate found his company, but less surprising is that the next most popular would-be flatmate is the one and only Tony Stark, aka Iron Man.

Who wouldn’t want to share a flat with a billionaire, genius, playboy philanthropist? He’d probably cover the rent, being a nice guy, and we know he has great taste in music. Better make sure there’s a parking space and roof access though…nobody wants the full suit jet-landing in the living room when you’re trying to watch Netflix.

The joint third place for most desired Avengers flatmate went to Captain America and the Black Panther (okay, maybe T’Challa isn’t officially an Avenger yet, but come on, we all know it’s just a matter of time).

Steve Rogers seems like he’d be a tidy sort of roomie, and think of the fun you could have introducing him to all the culture he’s missed while doing time as a Capsicle (bonus points for guessing how he’d react to Darth Vader being Luke Skywalker’s father, right?). Still, we guess it might be a little annoying having the always-righteous guy around, and there’s always the risk he’ll go haring off after Bucky again and leave you in the lurch with the rent. Awks.

T’Challa, on the other hand, has got to be one of the most reliable flatmates anyone could want. Aside from the fact he’s a freaking king and has more money even than Iron Man, he’s often totally silent and more or less invisible. All right, so he might keep some odd hours sometimes, but don’t we all? Hmm. Might be a little weird having all his bodyguards hanging around though. Not to mention if his little sister swings by and starts criticising your shoes.

Finally, a little over 5% of our community who took part in the survey said they’d like to share a flat with Black Widow. Nat looks okay as flatmate material at first glance, we’d assume – she’s organised, generally easy going, probably out a lot so wouldn’t be in your face all the time. On the other hand, we’re not sure we’d like to see her reaction to that whoops-just-this-once missed bout of washing up, or if you accidentally used some of her milk from the fridge.

Meep. We’re sorry, Ms Romanov. Please don’t zap us.
Well, we don’t have any Avengers on the books here looking for roommates (yet) but if you’re after a room to rent in London and need someone to share it with, super-powered or not, try our match-making quiz. You’re bound to find someone willing to cry together with you after you’ve seen Infinity War. Is it 2019 yet?
