the fabulously terrific @firstaudrina detailed her top five favorite fics from her repertoire! i’m also paraphrasing her invite: ‘[passing this to] all my writer mutuals! yes, you. you too.’ mine are as follows:
try and grab the spotlight (a dollop of fame) [schitt’s creek; alexis/ted; the extended rose fam]: i regularly have feelingssss about a duo, but? this? my crowning glory! it’s absolutely the ending i envision for my beloved babies and i regularly reread myself, like a complete nerd.
set my midnight sorrow free [the newsroom; sloan/don]: the comfort we saw in the series finale immediately spurred me to imagine tons more, so. this is that!
hush, my darling (don't fear, my darling) [stranger things; eleven+hopper, et al.]: the father-daughter pre-fight patch-up job that wouldn’t leave me alone until i’d written all the details over the course of three days!
superman's got nothing on me [mcu, ant-man movies; hope/scott, extended fam]: i came out of ‘ant-man & the wasp’ wanting to sob joyously. this emotion extended into navigating legacies and many familial shenanigans.
what’s so amazing that keeps us stargazing (what do you think we might see) [in the heights; vanessa/usnavi, tinyyyyy human iris]: i had an extremely clear vision/headcanon here ... part of me wishes the length could’ve matched my attachment level? 5K wasn’t meant to be, though!
number six would’ve definitelyyyy featured wanda maximoff!

your top 15 favourite tv shows can say a lot about your personality
Tagged by the epically fab @lolahardy
this genuinely kept me awake a bit last night until I realised what was happening and stopped trying to recall every show that ever struck me right in the feels or shaped me lol and yes, I know no one asked for any reasoning behind it but when you've mulled it over all bloody day long, you feel like sharing :P
M*A*S*H - used to be on everyday at 7 and my mum had adored it when she was younger so brought me and my sister up on it, still makes me laugh and cry to this day.
Star Trek TNG (& Picard which might be cheating but really is just an extension all told) - loved all the Trek's, Honourable Mention goes to ToS because kid!me loved it so much, only to have TNG blow the roof off my head. Lt Cmdr Data was my first love and I am unashamed ;)
Red Dwarf - for many reasons but mainly Arnold Rimmer (more reliable than a garden Strimmer, he's never been mistaken for Yul Brynner - he's not bald and his head doesn't glimmer...) who my teenage self was certain could be redeemed with the power of love, or a very determined snogging if nowt else.
The Good Place - because I (and many of us) needed it as a concept, whether for personal growth, coping with grief or just cos 'forking shirtballs' never gets any less funnier for me.
Firefly - the best show to ever be cancelled before it's writer could ruin it. I adored the show and the ensuing film, mourned its early cancellation for YEARS until I heard about Whedon's general twattishness and what had been his intentions for the series and characters, now am happy it exists as it is, still problematic but so worthy in so many ways, and on that awkward note...
Buffy the Vampire Slayer - problematic on 800 gazillion levels in this day and age but still a forerunner of many awesome things to follow and I'd be lying if I said I hadnt been glued to it, obsessed with it, shipping folks, dling the soundtrack, buying the jewelry etc and even now if I see a reaction vid on YT for S5 I can't help myself but watch and weep along with them.
Merlin (BBC) - Umm'd and Ahh'd over this for bloody ages lol but it was my happy place (literally, had a run of bad years as have we all, so I'd watch an ep before bed every night to make me smile) and it got me through the difficulties I had right up to the finale where they took me and my happy place out back and shot it in the face in front of me lol. Despite my escapism route being put down in those heinous raw weeks immediately following a parents funeral, I'm still listing it here for being wonderful, silly, heartening and heartbreaking, whilst giving every last Fuck You to the writers for their surprise, abruptly canon-compliant ending.
Stargate SG1 - daft sci fi with it's heart trying hard to be in the right place plus eminently shippable characters in almost every combo going? Yes, please.
Heroes - because I was OBSESSED. It picked me up out of my OTP in a diff fandom (sorry drarry, I still love you honest) drained me of any and all urge to write for anything but them ever again until it got shat on by its own writers, breaking the spell.
Brooklyn 99 - NINE-NINE. *sadly doffs cap to Captain Holt*
King of the Hill - from a show I used to avoid when I was younger to one I ration myself viewswise so it won't lose it's impact. Superb.
Schitts Creek - only watched due to encountering a clip on tumblr of Moira's stonefaced manaical laughter and ended up crying with happiness over the finale, am an easy crier sure, but not normally because something is just so lovely.
Cheers - was only a kid when it finished but I bawled my face off when Sam said 'sorry, we're closed' (was too young to know it'd be repeated ad infinitum lol) and the opening theme still feels like coming home.
Golden Girls - sole reason D+ gets any money from me, the bastards, it was my only access for a bit there but it was worth it, lightyears ahead of it's time and just wonderful to boot.
Parks & Rec - somewhere my sister is elated with no clue why. Took her years to talk me into it, but having watched it on repeat a few times, I now can't live without Leslie, Ben & Ron.
Other honourable mentions (sorry I know, longpost, my bad) go to Quantum Leap for being a daily delight growing up, What We Do in the Shadows which would have made the list but I've only just got around to watching it and am only on S3 so have yet to find out if it's going to rip my heart out, Eerie Indiana for getting me started hyperfixationwise, Caroline in the City (S1-S3... S4? I don't know her - no seriously, I didnt realise for YEARS it didnt end at S3 and as this purported S4 fucked that up [supposedly] yeah I don't know her), The XFiles for my first actual foray into fandom & fanfic, and I know am missing another gazillion shows I'll remember later that seem much more worldshaping than these and I'll gnash my teeth lol so yeah *waves hand vaguely towards future me's frustrated rememberings* them too ;)
Tagging a) anyone who fancies a go should they feel like it, and b) [no pressure natch] @theangrykimchi @amazinmango @thesaltofcarthage @buckydunpun @kalika999 @gracerene @helaheim @dls-ao3 @emorgan5061 @bananaempanada

☠ main ☠ bio ☠ face ☠ muse ☠ wishlist ☠
Tumblr media
about:
This is a sideblog, and I follow back from my main @grimmusings. Please direct IMs there, since it's easier for me to keep all my messages on one blog. It's also easier to start interactions with me there, where I regularly post open starters and meme prompts. For a full list of rules and verses, see my main. Honesty hour questions will largely be answered IC and treated as anonymous unless signed by a muse.
And now, some warnings! Brock is a villain, and I will be writing him as such. Even when he’s not actively being a villain, his interactions tend to be manipulative, abusive, and problematic af. This blog will feature content such as murder, torture, manipulation, gaslighting, abusive relationships, and some hit or miss loyalty to Hydra and/or Red Skull. If you’re not comfortable with those, that’s perfectly fine, but this isn’t the muse for you. I will check with you before anything major so we can better plot things out. Likewise, if you prefer to plot Brock’s death, I’m happy to work with you on that. Being a villain has consequences, but communication is key.
Please note that I do not write Hydra Trash Party, but I don't care if you choose to. I'm not into non-con, nor is Brock (for more on that, see my headcanons on Brock as a handler). However, my blogs are emphatically anti-censorship. If you don't understand the line between reality and fiction, we're not a good match.
default verses:
I’m happy to write Brock into AUs and fandom crossovers, but for ease, I typically write him in one of the following two verses.
mcu: An MCU-only verse where Brock joins the military at eighteen and works his way to Commander on a Navy SEALS team. He's in black ops when he's recruited by Hydra and sent to infiltrate SHIELD. I'm happy to pick up anywhere in this timeline, from his early days with SHIELD to his post-Hydra vengeance streak after Cap drops a building on him. If there's a redemption arc for Brock, it usually takes place in this verse.
616: A blend of MCU, comics, and headcanon where Crossbones was trained at Taskmaster's school for criminals before pledging loyalty to Red Skull during WWII, where he was given some version of the super soldier serum. He's fought for various organizations and villains over the decades before infiltrating SHIELD as a Hydra agent, where his timeline crosses over with the MCU. Brock is an unrepentant villain in this verse, and he's not interested in redemption.
verses by request only:
I'm happy to write these, but since they're more specific AUs, I don't default on them for asks/memes.
running on empty: Same beginning as 616, but where Brock defects from Hydra at some point well before Insight for various reasons. He spends decades living on the run and fighting back at Hydra, is recaptured and tortured (where he receives the extensive scarring he has in the MCU), and escapes again to continue the fight.
hydra!verse: Insight is successful, and Hydra is able to take out all or most of their targets at once. Brock is promoted, and Hydra is on the verge of world domination, with only a few rebels left to fight back.
hydra!world: Earth-85826, where fascist dictator Armin Zola rules the world with Hydra.
wanted connections:
This is by no means a comprehensive list, and I can roll with most muses as far as basic interactions. I’m happy to ship Brock with other Marvel characters and OCs/fandom crossovers based on chemistry, but unless they’re on my OTP list, they need plotting and interaction first. There is never any pressure to ship with me, even if they’re on my list.
OTPs: Sinthea Schmidt, Jack Rollins, Bucky Barnes NOTPs: Johann Schmidt, Alexander Pierce Other: Frank Castle, Billy Russo (AU where Brock is assigned to the Cerberus Squad), Negan Smith (he would totally join the Saviors in a TWD verse)

Okay so earlier my bf was telling me I'm weird (affectionately) and just now he said something odd so I said "and you say I'm weird" and he said "we're both weird" and because in between texting him I'm also looking at Stranger Things stuff, my brain is full of Byler rot and I sent him the 'crazy together' screen caps
And he responded ever-so-simply with
"yes. Crazy together"
AND I JUST ASJSLSFGASKSKALAGJJF-
due to fandom obsession and actively looking at posts of my OTP, that line annihilated me. I short-circuited. I died. I told him I had to go for a moment because oh my gOD

Mixed OTP asks: Javelia; Dino Fury: Who is the big/little spoon? Which member is more likely to accidentally spend $300 at Target? Who said, "I Love You," first? Have an AU thought? Double Date? Thoughts? Who?
AAAAHH THANK YOU FOR THIS!!! This got a liiiiittle out of hand...
Who is the big/little spoon? Amelia is the big spoon. She loves cuddling Javi, and Javi can just roll into a little ball under her embrace and just MELT. He feels safe when she's around, but when she's in a bad mood, he doesn't mind taking the role, so I guess they're a switch?
Which member is more likely to accidentally spend $300 at Target? Amelia. AMELIA AMELIA AMELIA. if she sees anything that looks even the slightest bit *shiny* or intriguing to her, she'll get it. Not to mention anything that has a label even slightly related to the paranormal. Javi: You blew up FIFTY BUCKS on this GPS? Amelia: It's a ghost tracker Javi: what's... what makes it different from a normal gps? Amelia: See that ghost sticker there? It's for ghosts! Javi: Please tell me you kept the receipts T_T Basically he adores her, but sometimes even he finds himslef scratching his head. He tries his best though. Ie: He goes shopping, she doesn't. NO.
Who said, "I Love You," first? They'd both thought it would be Javi who'd say it first, he's the more emotional one of the two, but it was actually Amelia. One day, overthinking stuff, she realised just how much she loved him. And she wasn't the type to let the realisation brew. The second she realised it, she tracked him down, wherever he was, and confessed. Turned out, Javi had been feeling the same, but he'd been a little shy in confessing.
Have an AU thought? Only about five million... But if we're talking about One... Okay I've written the Ghost!AU already so I can't say that, right? Okay wait, wait, here's this that's been dancing around in the back of my mind for about... a week now. Coffeeshop AU where basically Javi's the barista and Amelia's a regular, and a total meet cute where it's love/attraction at first sight? I don't have many ideas yet, but Barista Javi with a starbucks cap, and tattoos can't leave my mind... not to mention he can't work a coffee machine to save his life— Jane hired him because she was short on time— and Amelia, who is in fact not a barista, yet knows how to work it, and on his first day he messes up, and she comes in to help him, simply because she's nice... and wellllllll! SPARKS FLY✨
Double Date? Thoughts? Who? Javi and Amelia are ALWAYS up for a double date. Mostly because they have a nice couple to go out with, who are not too gross, (and don't involve Javi's sister)... yeah you guessed it right. Zayto and Aiyon didn't understand the idea of a double date at first, and they handed the task of explaining it to Izzy— who also by the way went on double dates with Zayto and Aiyon and Fern— and it worked. They've made Bowling double dates a regular thing now. ALSO Javi doesn't want to go on a double date with Izzy and Fern he's just not ready yet.

The sun had set, yet the moon was nowhere to be seen. He wonders where it had been, he hadn't seen it for a month.
The ninja’s thought was interrupted by a ‘ding’ coming from his phone, a message from a certain scientist , guess the scientist finished his stalking session.

Are you paying?

Well, it’s not technically stealing from HER. you’re stealing
from the government, who stole the crystal from HER.
randy cunningham ripoff:
idk man. it just feels wrong. stealing from a, well i assume, dead
person who happens to be yoe sistr figure.
[skunk with goggles]
how’d you know she’s dead? Nobody knows what happened to her.
randy cunningham ripoff:
Well that’s what people say. thrust me i didn’t want to believe them either.
passed through the 5 stages of grief, but couldnt get through denial.

that doesn't even make sense- you know what, nevermind.
What if I offer you 5m?

randy cunningham ripoff:

[skunk with goggles]
not satisfied? ok, last offer
9m. take it or leave it.
—-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The ninja thought for a second
the moon wouldn’t mind if i ‘take’ it back from the museum right? sharing is caring, especially to your ‘siblings’.
The real problem is trying to stay ALIVE while getting them.
These crystals aren't just some expensive jewelry crystal, a tiny piece of it could assassinate a whole city. trying to get them is basically a death wish, one wrong move and you’re gone.

Ant-Man and the Wasp
A joint review...
Sub-Atomic (to be said in your best Debbie Harry voice)
Tumblr media
We shall begin by saying the worst bit about this film (as we're that way inclined today...) is the use of the word Quantum in front of every other word. It's too much, Scott even agreed with us at one point, we hate hate hate it. We also realise this doesn't bode well for the third film which even includes it in the title.
We do not want to go to the Quantum Realm, although I don't think anyone in the film really did either, especially if there is the chance to bring back some sort of zombie infection.
We do like the colours, but imagine being inside the swirling mess of rainbow might be quite sickening, sort of like the Mirror Dimension (not the mirror world, we won't bring up Mr Susan again... *look at them shine*). It would be like being stuck in a magic eye puzzle, which @cassandrafey does not want to be, but @becksxoxo is so confident in her magic eye skills as to boast that she'd get us out. She went to a RADAR museum and learnt how to do them, then got given a book and can now see the future. (@cassandrafey doesn't like this at all...).
We don't want to go. We're not cut out for it. Please don't send us to the Quantum Realm.
We shall now move on to the filling of this hate sandwich, (oh yes, there's more rage to come...) and tell you about all the bits that we loved.
The side characters in this film are arguably the best characters in this film.
Agent Jimmy Woo is a legend. He also delivered one of our favourite lines of the film:
"Oh Cassie, this must all seem like a bunch of confusing grown-up stuff to you. Well, think of it this way, your school has rules right? Like you can’t draw on the walls. Well your daddy went to Germany and drew on the walls with Captain America. And that was a violation of article 16 paragraph 3 of the Sokovia Accords. Now as a part of his joint plea deal with Homeland Security and the German government, he was allowed to return to the U.S. provided he serve 2 years under house arrest followed by 3 years of probation and avoid any unauthorised activities, technology or contact with any former associates who were or are currently are in violation of said accords or any elated statutes. Okay, sweetie?"
Then @becksxoxo said something, that we won't repeat here, but it was something similar to the plum gravy incident. @cassandrafey has said she could get on board with it, depending on which Cap we're talking about.
We love that Jimmy became obsessed with learning close up magic. We like to hark back to times when we had nothing better to do at work than research how to do stupid things. It’s also lovely see that he has learned some bits by the time we get to WandaVision.
Tumblr media
We also really loved Jimmy accidently asking Scott out on a date at the end. It may even become our OTP (reading this back @cassandrafey has just become the most British I've ever heard by shouting 'NOW STEADY ON!' down the phone at me, like the Captain off of Ghosts. She's said he's the only thing about the war that she likes. @becksxoxo then shared a very emotional moment she recently had involving the captain, which led to her crying at a fan edit on tiktok. @cassandrafey then made a gurgling noise as she shrieked so much she had to go to the toilet. It's safe to say we are not doing well.) We haven't looked up fanfic yet but we're sure there will be plenty of x-rated magic puns and we can't wait.
We think one of the main reasons we love these side characters is how relatable we find them, which we'll touch on again shortly.
When startled and cross Jimmy says
"How could this happen? I mean, what the dickens?"
Sometimes we say stupid stuff like that (as clearly stated above) and it's just nice to see it represented on screen.
We love Luis, and how worried he was about giving that presentation, we feel you Luis! Although, imagine if you were sat in a meeting and those three goons rocked up to sell you something. WE'D BE BUYING. He's also a really good friend, sure he's fretting about work, but he's still on board with moving fake ant limbs to entertain Cassie. He's also just really really funny:
"Who are you and why do you know so much about car wash protocol?"
That really tickled us.
The whole truth serum bit was a million chefs' kisses, just so good. Firstly, Young Hugh - always a delight to see someone off of the telly on the big screen (we're guessing Zola got him the gig...). Also we loved how disappointed in himself he was when he realised it was truth serum.
Then this whole conversation:
Sonny: Wait, hold on, hold on. Now I like a good story as much as the next person, but what’s this have to do what where Scott Lang is?
Luis: I’m getting there. I’m getting there.
Dave: You put a dime in him, you got to let the whole song play out.
Kurt: He’s like human jukebox.
Tumblr media
WE LIVE FOR LUIS' STORIES. The whole way they do them are great. @becksxoxo would go as far as to say she has never seen anything better, in the whole history of cinema, than the way they do them stories. Him talking over the other people acting, it just fills me with such joy. @cassandrafey doesn't seem convinced by this statement, but what we both agree on is his hair in this story was perfect.
We love Dave spending money they don't have on fancy car washes, another little bit of relatable story!
Tumblr media
We know that Kurt is the tech guy, but we really appreciate the amount of superstition he is bringing to the group, AGAIN another bit of us represented on the big screen.
Baba Yaga come at night
Little children sleepy tight
Baba Yaga give you bite
Lay in bed, don't be upright
Baba Yaga, big black stick
Come for children playing trick
Baba Yaga at your door
Baba Yaga hear you snore
Baba Yaga, it's so smelly
Baba Yaga, you're in it's belly
We should probably be worried about how much we relate to these three fucking idiots, but we'll push that down for now. However, they do save the day in the end so maybe we should celebrate it.
Tumblr media
We want to emphasis again how Scott Lang is without a doubt the best father in the MCU (and obviously the best grandma too!). He's a convicted criminal and yet manages to do some excellent parenting and have a good secure family situation going on. We wonder if Marvel has noticed they've accidently done that? So help us if they try and fuck any of that up in Quantumania.
We also love that Scott Lang calls people out on their bullshit. We've already mentioned the Quantum thing and we also really enjoyed:
"That's not a disguise, Hank. We look like ourselves at a baseball game."
YES!
We super enjoyed him being shrunk down to toddler size. Roaming around the school corridors and having the shit ripped out of him by his friends. Very good. Very comedic. Nice.
He's just a good egg. He's not dramatic and angsty, he's just kind and good and fun. It's nice not to have to worry about someone for a change, soothing in fact.
Tumblr media
We also still really love Cassie, she's great, well rounded, happy and we love her referring to the police as The Fuzz and the Po-Po. We also very much enjoyed the World's Best Grandma trophy, and her desire to take it to show and tell.
What would you like to take to show and tell?
@cassandrafey: I was going to say these reviews, but after all the time my colleague spent trying to google them just to have a read, after I refused to give him the blog name, perhaps I wouldn't. May I would take one of my Rafa hats, just as an excuse to talk about him.
@becksxoxo: And just sit and weep about his knees?
@cassandrafey: I love that man!
@becksxoxo: What would I take to show and tell?
@cassandrafey: All your wine. You are an ambassador now after all...
@becksxoxo: *wheezes and thinks fondly of all those the thief x reader fanfic she has saved in her inbox...*
Tumblr media
@becksxoxo was pleased Hope had ditched the fringe and @cassandrafey enjoyed her badass ways. We love her dressed up as a dangerous victorian orphan, and how she doesn't take shit from anyone.
@becksxoxo specifically enjoyed her reaction to not being invited to Germany.
Scott: I’m sorry about Germany. They just showed up and said it was a matter of national security. That Cap needed help.
Hope: Who’s Cap?
Scott: …tain America. Captain America. Cap. That’s what we call him if you’re a friend. I think I’m a friend, a little. I know him. He’s not; we’re not.. Whatever.
Scott: I’m sorry, I didn’t think I would get caught.
Hope: You didn’t think about a lot of things.
Scott: How's Hank?
Hope: We're still running. The House is gone, so is out freedom. How do you think he is?
Scott: I'm sorry. I know you're mad.
Hope: I'm not looking for an apology, Scott. The only reason why we're even talking is because we need what's in your head.
...
Scott: I just have one question, when Cap needed help, if I’d asked you, would you have come?
Hope: I guess we’ll never know. But if you had, you’d never been caught.
@cassandrafey thinks its because we have conversations very similar to that. Again, REPRESENTATION.
Tumblr media
Hank Pym, a very angry man. He's constantly giving sass from the back seat, and really has fallen out with anyone he's ever met. At some point you have to consider if maybe it's just you, but we don't begrudge Hank it. In fact, it makes us love him more.
Scott: Hold on, you gave her wings?!
Hank: And blasters.
Scott: So I take it you didn’t have that tech available for me.
Hank: No, I did.
We are concerned however, that he hadn't seemed to have bothered about looking for his wife before this. But we've put it down to him not wanting to make things worse.
We were disappointed by the lack of ants in this film, but Hank did seem to have made a lot more of the bigger ones (they're our favourite).
Our second fanfiction question of the review, is there Hank/Scott as Janet fanfic out there, because we saw the way Hank looked at Scott, and we imagine it was very disturbing for Hank to think back on, but maybe (in one universe) it wasn't?
We were impressed by the magnificent shrinking and growing of the lab building. It opened up many prospects to relieve the giant suitcases that @becksxoxo ends up dragging across the London Underground. We do have concerns that all your belongings would be thrown askew and smashed to bits while its being carried about, but we have decided to just suspend belief for now (the same with the plumbing and foundations...).
Tumblr media
We'll spare a word for Janet, who seems to have returned as a witch, although we're sure her true title is Quantum Witch, and who we both agreed was very pretty.
And now on to our villains.
We knew Sonny Burch was a wrong un because he doesn't wear socks with his slip on shoes. He seemed the sort of villain you'd have in the 80s, very corporate but not really that dangerous in real life. We didn't much care for him. NEXT!
Ava, very British for someone who grew up in Argentina and then worked in America. We wanted to like her more, but were just quite irritated by her messing things up when they would have helped her if she'd just asked. It is another example though of SHIELD really being dickheads, what were they playing at?!
Tumblr media
Bill Foster the Science Guy. He seemed alright, good morals, just trying to do his best. We enjoyed him and Scott comparing sizes, and him and Hank snarking at each other.
Maybe Ava and Bill will return in the next film? Who knows? Not us!
So before we go to tart this up, smack it’s arse and send it out into the world, we have one more thing to say.
The after credit scene is harrowing. We hate being plunged back in to despair, with @becksxoxo's notes just reading:
For fucks sake, I can't. Why can't anything just end happily. Fucking hell fire. Fucking Thanos. Fucking Infinity Stones. I HATE IT.
On that cheerful note we shall bid you adieu. Gird your loins for Infinity War next week.
love cass and becks xoxo

For the ask game and to make up for my terrible behaviour and I'll let you ask me E in return if you dare cuz I have too many examples 🤣 (although it only applied to like... YOI, BBS, MDZS and Not me so pick ur poison?)
Lmao alright take two 😂
X: 3 OTPs from 3 different fandoms.
Okay! So, Not Me, you know why I apologise for nothing, my OTP is definitely danyok. I'M SORRY okay I know they are not the main pairing and I love seanwhite with every fiber of my being but danyok is literal crack and Yok makes me feel like a cat that's been given a lot of catnip and now is being presented with a laser pointer, and every scene they have gives me a minor concussion.
For mdzs, no surprise but it's wangxian. It's funny cuz I ship just about everything in that fandom but wangxian is the original, it's the king, it's my eternal blorbos in the most beautiful love ever, hit like if you cry every time. Wangxian is the chemical that made those frogs gay and I will stan eternally.
And for one a little less obvious lol, from Guardian, chuguo. And the way I don't even know for sure it that's the popular name for the ship cuz we are so starved for content 😭 but yeah Guardian definitely gave me brain damage and I still can't believe I cried over a damn lollipop wrapper, but Chu Shuzhi and Guo Changcheng just have this certain 🤌🤌🤌 that makes me an absolute clown. We're not going to read into but my therapist knows lmaooo
Y: A fandom you’re in but have no ships from.
Hmmmm okay this one's hard cuz I'm really down for just about whatever. Oh! I got one. Sanders Sides. I like to watch it when I'm down, it's just kinda fun and it talks about mental health stuff so when I'm in a certain mood it's perfect. But like no hate but I just... don't quite get the huge shipping side to the fandom lol. Like yeah clone fucking is a thing but it's not really like that is it? Idk lol
P: Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas).
Oooh I like this one. Put on my thinkin cap... OOH! What about a just like heaven au for word of honor? I will never get why just like heaven aus aren't more popular, I love them. But it's perfect for wenzhou! Wen Kexing is the ghost (hehe get it?) He can be rocking his post-canon white hair that drives me insane. Zhou Zishu can be the perpetually annoyed new renter who is a shut in and has to deal with being harassed by the world's worst roommate qho just happens to be a ghost. Why tf haven't I thought of this before???
And I challenge YOU with E for Not Me AND YOI because you owe me 😂😂

ghosts for the ask game
It had to be!
the first character i ever fell in love with: The captain was my initial favourite
a character that i used to love/like, but now do not: Thomas? I still love him but significantly less then when it started
a ship that i used to love/like, but now do not: I used to be quite fond of Mary and Robin together but not anymore, they're chaotic gremlins platonically and I love them like that. It just doesn't work for me anymore.
my ultimate favorite character™: MARYMARYMARYMARY
prettiest character: ALL OF THEM (Though Humphrey is very pretty) (So is Kitty)
my most hated character: Of all of them? ELEANOR
my OTP: Alison and Mike. They are perfect.
my NOTP: Errrr... I don't like a lot of the pairings but the worst possible combination I can think of is Cap and Kitty so that? HE'S HER DAD.
favorite episode: Gurilla war
saddest death: Thomas's death had me in literal tears so his.
favorite season: 2
least favorite season: I love all of them but I suppose series 1 relied a lot more on introducing characters and there was a lot more cringe comedy of Alison not understanding how to interact properly which isn't really something I'm too keen on most the time. I still love it but I have to put one of them.
character that everyone else in the fandom loves, but i hate: Again, I hate none of the characters but I feel that sometimes Cap can get overhyped? He's still in my top 3 though???
my ‘you’re piece of trash, but you’re still a fave’ fave: BARCLAY BEG CHEPWYND! Or if we're going main characters, Julian. But he's less of a piece of trash as he had a very small redemption arc and taught Robin to play chess. Barclay is just an absolute dick and I love him.
my ‘beautiful cinnamon roll who deserves better than this’ fave: Kitty ofc
my ‘this ship is wrong, nasty, and makes me want to cleanse my soul, but i still love it’ ship: Jules and cap? I don't really care much for it but it gives me those vibes
my ‘they’re kind of cute, and i lowkey ship them, but i’m not too invested’ ship: Pat and Cap. My favourite of the non canon ships but I'm not much of a shipper

department of matchmaking || s.r
summary: in which you’re asked by aunt may to babysit peter while she’s away at a business conference & steve tags along. peter, being the innocent smol bean he is, tries to get you and the Captain together.
words: ~3.1k
warnings: none, just fluff & a little matchmaking spider-man :) and OH steve’s blue jacket heheh. tony’s your dad in this oop cant resist a stark child. shhh CW never happened bc i’m still in denial 
Tumblr media
Peter: Aunt May says she has a couple errands to run so she won't be back until later this afternoon. Can you pick me up? School just ended.
You: Of course!
Peter: Ned and I are planning on building the Lego Death Star tonight. I know you're a sucker for building stuff :)
You: You know me so well, kiddo. I'm definitely in. How could I miss out on our weekly date nights?
Peter: You're the best! See you soon
You: See you!
"Where are you going?"
"May's busy, so I gotta go pick Peter up from school," you explained to Steve as you slung your purse over your shoulder and grabbed the keys to your (Tony's) Audi, sliding your sunglasses on. "We're having one of our weekly Friday movie nights, and he and Ned just got a new Lego set that they want me to help construct. You wanna come along?"
"Sure, I don't mind."
You headed outside to the car together, sticking the keys into the ignition as Steve slid in next to you in the passenger's seat. "I hope you don't have anything else planned for the rest of tonight. We might be there for a while...I know we were gonna see that new action movie in theaters tomorrow. I'm sorry."
"Nope, no plans," he smiled, "I'm free for the rest of this weekend. As long as I get to spend time with you, it's okay."
You couldn't help but feel your heart flutter a bit at his words. 
But you quickly brushed the thought off, knowing the last thing you were supposed to do was fall for someone after you'd just gotten over a nasty breakup.
Soon enough, you pulled up in front of Midtown High School and saw Peter standing with Ned by the curb. You rolled the window down and called out to them. "Hey, boys. Need a ride?"
"My favorite Avenger! Hi!" Ned greeted as he and Peter got into the backseat, strapping their seatbelts on.
"Ouch, I'm offended," Steve placed a hand over his chest and pretended to look hurt. "I thought I was your favorite?"
"Captain America! It's an honor!" he exclaimed. "I've heard so much about you from Peter!"
"Oh, really? I hope he only told you good things?" the super-soldier chuckled.
"Yup!"
"So, how was school?" you glanced back at the two teenagers from the rearview mirror. "Anything interesting happen?"
"No, except they actually served something edible in the cafeteria for lunch today," Peter rolled his eyes. "Which is a first."
You sighed, placing your hand back on the wheel, "School food isn't the best thing ever."
"So uh, I have a question," Ned spoke up as you headed down the street, "are you and Y/N a...thing? ‘Cause I hear a lot of fans are speculating that the kickass agent and America’s golden boy are dating."
"What? No," you and Steve replied in unison, exchanging a knowing look before bursting into laughter. "No."
"Okay..."
It was mostly quiet for the rest of the car ride back to the apartment. Peter pulled out the keys from his jacket pocket and slid it in the lock, pushing the door open and gesturing for the rest of you to come inside.
"So," he breathed out, setting his backpack down by the front door and dusting his hands off. You sat around the sofa together, glancing at the massive Lego set on the coffee table. "Here it is, in all its glory."
"How many pieces is this?" Steve questioned, looking at it in shock.
"Almost 4000."
A buzzing sound from his phone made Peter look down, swiping a few times before unlocking it and scanning over the new notification.
"May has an overnight business conference and she won't be back until tomorrow evening. She wants you to babysit," he explained as he looked up at you.
"Fine by me," you shrugged. "Cap?"
"Sure, why not."
"But I'm 15 and 8 months! I'm not a baby."
"Well, kiddo, I'm 28 and Tony treats me like a baby even though I’m not a baby anymore. Steve's going on 32, and acts like he's 12."
"I do not!"
"Yes, you do."
"I do not!"
"Yes, you do."
"Arguing like a married couple," Peter coughed, and Ned wiggled his eyebrows up and down. "Cute."
"For the last time, we're not a thing," you let out an exasperated sigh, but felt a blush creep up your cheeks as you spoke.
Two hours later you were a little over halfway done with building the Death Star, and fatigue was beginning to catch up with you after you neglected your sleep schedule and pulled three all-nighters in a row bingeing Netflix with Sam.
You let out a yawn as you flipped through the instructions pamphlet, stretching your arms up in the air.
"You tired?" Steve asked. You were too tired to respond, simply leaning into him and closing your eyes.
"You can take her to the guest room. Straight down the hall, then turn right," Peter said as he noticed you'd now fallen asleep on him. "We can continue this after dinner."
Steve scooped you up into his strong arms and carried you down the hall, pushing the door to the guest room open with one hand before carefully setting you down on the bed, tucking you in.
"Sleep tight," he whispered, a ghost of a smile on his face as he leaned down to kiss your forehead and left.
"Ahem. Now that she's gone," Ned cleared his throat, "time to plan on how we're supposed to get our OTP together!"
"Ned, really-"
"You should ask her out, Cap. I see the way you look at her," Peter raised an eyebrow at him, "I mean, it's clear to everyone how you feel about her, and the way she feels about you. Sam sees it, Mr. Stark sees it, heck, I think May has her suspicions as well because she wouldn't stop talking about how great of a couple you two would be over dinner last night-"
"Look, Peter, I don't think she's ready for a relationship."
"Why not?"
"She just broke up with her boyfriend two months ago. I doubt she'd be willing to date again."
"But you're her best friend! You're literally the perfect man for her!"
"It doesn't matter. I'm not taking advantage of someone when they're vulnerable. That isn't right."
He scoffed, crossing his arms over his chest and kicking his feet up against the coffee table, tossing a spare Lego piece up and down in one hand. "Yeah, I totally believe the great Captain America isn't in love with the great Y/N."
"She's my friend. A teammate."
"Friends with benefits!" Ned chimed in. Steve made a face at this. "No, not like that. I mean that as in, you guys do all the things that regular couples do, except you're not officially a couple. And I think that's big enough of an indication that you should get together for real."
"I'm just waiting for the right time."
"AHA!" both boys shouted. "So you are in love with her!"
"Keep it down!" he scolded. "She's asleep!"
"You didn't deny it this time..."
"Fine, whatever. What do you guys want for dinner? I'll go pick it up."
"Pizza."
"If Y/N asks where I am, just tell her I went to go get the food."
"Okay."
As soon as the door shut behind Steve, Peter and Ned's heads immediately whipped over and they faced each other, exchanging evil grins.
"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Ned practically squealed.
"Yeah, I'm thinking what you're thinking!"
"Romantic dinner and movie night setup!" both boys whooped and hollered.
"I'll light the candles and get the napkins. May always keeps a stock of scented ones when Y/N comes over because she loves the smell of cherry blossoms."
"...I'll grab the rose petals and tablecloth."
"Rose petals?"
"Mind if I tear apart the flower on your desk?"
"Yeah, yeah, go ahead. Also, the regular tall candles are in the cabinet below the sink in the bathroom."
"Yessir."
Twenty minutes later, Steve came back with the pizza in hand, setting the keys on the counter and closing the door, stopping dead in his tracks as he observed the scene before him.
Tumblr media
"What is going on?"
"We set up a date night for you two because we know you've been working hard this past week and deserved to relax," Peter explained happily. "So, here you go!"
"Peter," Steve sighed, rubbing his forehead, "I appreciate your effort, but Y/N isn't ready for a relationship and neither one of us has feelings for the other."
"But you guys deserve a break! After working nonstop you should at least rest or something."
"Alright, alright. I'll go get Y/N. You guys set the pizza on the plates for everyone, okay?"
"Got it."
You yawned and rubbed your eyes, then stretched your arms up into the air, skidding to a halt as you observed the sight before you.
“Wh...what’s going on?”
Peter and Ned grinned from where they sat on the couch, paper plates on their laps. “We thought you deserved a nice break, so we set up a little something for you guys!”
“A romantic dinner? Why...”
"It looks pretty and gives off a relaxing mood. Why else?” Peter laughed nervously. “Now eat!”
“Okay...” you started growing suspicious, but didn’t question it, “alright, then.”
You fell into an awkward silence after that, aside from the occasional sound of silverware clinking against plates and drink glasses being set back down on the table. The atmosphere felt heavier than before and you couldn’t help but wonder what it was. 
“So, uh...how have you been holding up?” Steve asked you tentatively. He knew the topic of your ex-boyfriend was still that of a rather sensitive one - you’d come storming through the elevator doors and gulped down half a bottle of vodka (you never drank, so this had everyone genuinely worried), before heading upstairs and taking a forty-five minute shower, then afterwards, proceeded to lock yourself in your room for the rest of the afternoon. 
When you wouldn’t come down for dinner, he had to carry up your food to you and when you refused to eat, he was the one to force-feed you. When you suddenly broke down sobbing when he asked you if you were alright, he was the one who held you in your arms. He was the one who got you out of bed to bring you downstairs for some fresh air and to interact with the others, and not once during the time he was having to take care of you for, did he question any of your behavior. You were hurting and that was all that mattered. If you were hurting, he was hurting, too.
“It’s been a rough eight weeks...” you sighed, rubbing your forehead with one hand as you took a sip of wine. “Could be better, but...I’m alright. I just wish I could’ve seen that coming from the moment I went on that blind date with him.”
“What do you mean?” Steve was confused - you’d never mentioned any details of your relationship, you were a very private person, for that matter. You rarely ever opened up to anyone. “I thought you were...”
“Happy? Hell no, I don’t even know why I stayed,” you scoffed as you took another swing of your drink. “It was so easy to fall into a routine. There was this gaping hole in my heart, and...I needed it to be filled somehow. Then Agent Williams comes along, a seemingly perfect new SHIELD recruit, almost everything a girl could possibly want in a man standing right in front of me...how could I not fall for his façade? I didn’t realize it was doomed from the start until about a week into the relationship...but I held my tongue. I knew if I dared to speak up against him, he’d somehow manage to use my words against me, twist everything I said into a whole new lie...he manipulated me, day after day...yet I still didn’t leave because I genuinely believed he’d change. 
“But I was wrong. I was naïve, I stayed because I was so desperate to experience true happiness that I went as far as to stay with someone I knew would do a number on my mental health in the long run. I shouldn’t have been surprised when I walked into HQs one day to drop stuff of for Coulson, to see Williams on top of someone else...in the gym. In the gym...of all places. I only didn’t blast him because I didn’t want to destroy Fury’s property. So I slapped him and left. That’s it. This whole...fling, or whatever the hell you want to call this shitty relationship, lasted only twenty-six days before everything fell apart. God, I’m so stupid - I should’ve known. I was so stupid, I’m such a horrible person for doing what-”
Steve felt his blood boil with anger. Williams had cheated on you - that’s why you’d broken up. All this time he’d been thinking that you simply fell out of love, or maybe ended it on friendlier terms - when in fact, it was anything but.
Nobody deserved to be treated this way, especially you. I could treat you much better, he thought to himself.
“Hey, sweetheart,” he said softly, reaching a hand up to wipe the stray tears that fell from your eyes. Instead of letting his hand fall back at his side right away, he let it linger there for a moment, gently stroking your cheekbone with his thumb. The feeling sent electricity up his fingers. “It’s not your fault. You’re not a bad person...he is.”
“Shit, I think our plan’s backfiring,” Peter hissed into Ned’s ear as they watched the scene unfold from the couch. “What the fuck, Ned!”
“Shh! Hold on, they’re having a really deep conversation. Let them be for a second.”
“I was stupid enough to stay, when he was giving off all the wrong signs...I should’ve listened to Tony and Nat. They knew. They knew from the moment we first got together, but I didn’t listen...”
“It’s okay. You didn’t know any better,” he reassured you, absentmindedly taking your hand in his and rubbing circles across your palm, “you just wanted to be happy. To experience that feeling that came along with being in a relationship. Frankly, I think I would’ve done the same thing.”
“And what makes me feel even worse,” your voice caught in your throat as you spoke, “...were my true intentions of staying. I wanted to be happy, I really did. But I realized I’d never achieve that with someone like him...in a way, I was using him too, I guess. Not for my personal gain or anything, not to boost my social status, like he did...he always made a point of walking around and declaring that he had an Avenger girlfriend. But...”
“But what?”
“I knew if I was in a relationship with someone, that’d prevent me from thinking about being with anyone else. Well...that plan failed...horribly.”
“...What are you saying?”
“Of course, I didn’t figure that out until not long ago...but yeah. The heart wants what it wants...and it didn’t want him.”
“Then who was it?”
Your gaze flickered down to your now-intertwined fingers. You hesitated for a moment before speaking again. “...I think you know who it is, Steve.”
“See!” Ned kicked Peter in the shin as he was in the middle of finishing off his second slice, and he winced. “It’s getting saucy!”
“Ow!” 
“I think we both know,” Steve murmured. 
You let out a sound that was a cross between a laugh and a sob. “I don’t know why I tried pursuing a relationship that wouldn’t fulfill me in the long run. I should’ve known it was you all along, huh? You know me like the back of your hand. For Odin’s sake, you remembered every detail of my SHIELD file, my favorite color, my exact birth date, everything there is to know about me. It’s always been you-”
“...It broke my heart to see you with someone who wasn’t me,” he said quietly.
“Then why didn’t you say anything?”
“I didn’t want you to feel like I was meddling in your love life. I know you hate it when people do that.”
“Steve-”
“I knew you weren’t as happy as you let on. I shouldn’t have stayed silent...I should’ve at least said something. I was terrified to speak up, thinking that you wouldn’t reciprocate my feelings-”
“You...you what?”
“Yeah,” he chuckled lightly, “I’m in love with you.”
Peter let out a squeak. Ned chucked a pillow at him, a giddy look on his face.
“Good news,” you laughed, “because I’m in love with you too.”
“FINALLY!” Ned whooped, unable to contain his excitement for any longer. He and Peter exchanged a fist-bump. “FINALLY FINALLY FINALLY! I can’t believe our ship finally sailed! Though I gotta be honest, I had no idea pizza could bring out people’s true feelings like that.”
“We’re geniuses!” Peter squealed, pulling out his phone.. “Oh, wait until Mr. Stark hears about this!”
Your eyes widened in realization. “Peter, don’t you dare c-”
Too late. A buzzing sound came from your phone, alerting you of a new notification, and you unlocked it to see a text from your father. 
Mr. Stank😡: Took you long enough, honey. I expect a grandchild soon.
Mr. Stank😡: But I’m gonna be honest, I wouldn’t want any other man for you than Capsicle himself.
You let out a loud groan, shoving your phone back into your purse. “Oh, come on.”
A buzzing sound came from Steve’s phone as well, and he took it out of his pocket to take a look. 
Stark: You better not knock her up until after you get married and then leave. I learned that lesson too late. I’m being serious when I’m telling you to treat her right - she hasn’t been the same since her mother walked out all those years ago. You make her happy, though, so I won’t try to intervene.
Stark: But if you hurt her in any way, I’ll break your face. Capiche?
Steve: ...Capiche.
“Ooh! I just got a promotion for telling him about you guys!” Peter clasped his hands together. “I’m joining you on your next group mission!”
“That’s great, Peter!” you congratulated, “but...why would he give you a promotion for...this?”
“Because he’s been waiting for this to happen for the longest time! Oh and also, your food’s getting cold.”
“We could just reheat it. Or...if you guys are still hungry, do you want to go to Olive Garden?” Steve looked over at the two teenage boys. 
“YES.”
“Y/N, what about you?”
“It’s a date,” you winked. You let out a small laugh upon seeing his cheeks flush red.

I had that personal struggle a lot more when I was younger. Shamefully I will admit that like most teenagers when they're young and dumb(the time when it's okay to be young and dumb...within reason still, and I'll cap it at that before I go on a tangent that there's a limit to what is excusable because of ___) I sadly hated a lot of the female characters that got in the way of my gay otp. Granted, some shows back then didn't always give the female characters more attributes other than just being the main male's love interest. But as I grew and watched more diverse shows, read more books, and you know what helped me the most? Being friends with people online. People who latched on to certain characters that the main or popular narrative influenced my younger mind to easily hate. Being friends with these people and coming to love them, I saw their favorite characters through their eyes. I picked up on stuff I ignored or dismissed and a lot of characters I used to not care about, dislike or hate....are characters I see different. I still have final say about how I feel about them because my life experience still influence me but I'm freed from some of the stuff younger me was tied down with. Like...that silly notion that I can't find or like a villain character being villainous because it meant I condoned it....writing fanfic also is a wild ride. Because we write different stories with these same characters. And sometimes in order to make sense of the story we want to tell, we have to shift situations, shift mind sets. And I think Catherine falls a lot into villain role. And I'm not gonna pretend that I haven't reveled in some of those when the mood hit. Though it's always less my anger towards her as a character and more towards my hate for PL and his whole deal.
I did write a Danny/Jason Hayes(from SEAL Team) fic where Cat's not in the best light, I was responding to the implications canon made and the fall out of what I consider the inevitable.
It's a double edged sword...on one hand, it's amazing that a woman is given as much intellect, power, and ability....yet because of PL and other bastards like him, all of that is made irrelevant almost because in the end she has to be the 'Bad ass hero's love interest because that's what I say people want'
I don't think we're mad at her, I think we're made at the decisions made about her by PL but he's not the guy on screen. God F that guy to heck.
Cipher.
I definitely understand what you mean. That’s what I appreciate about running this blog. That I was able to say something/state an opinion, and I had people come and tell me how they felt. It was a nice conversation. I feel like I’m learning stuff from other members of the fandom. I can’t always be right and I appreciate that others can open my eyes, ya know?
And I appreciate you telling me your experience. As I’ve grown up and especially since I’ve been on Tumblr (basically a place that records all of my thoughts and my fandom phases) I’ve had a lot of learning to do. Everyday I am still am, XD.
And of course, PL always gets brought up for multiple reasons. And I’ve always seen many times where the writing on a character (or show) is criticized. Not so much the actor(s), but rather the writers. So in this case PL.
I’ve talked endlessly about certain aspects of the show that has suffered as the years went on. And as much as I love this show, it’s not perfect. PL isn’t the best as portraying women or having them be more than a love interest, like you stated. A lot of the things concerning love interests/relationships could of been handled better. But that’s a whole other longgg post.
Thank you again :3

character ask but itsa free space! i didn't know who to ask for so answer with who you like
Thank you! I want to answer for Julian but hopefully someone will send me Julian anyway (and if not, I talk about him too much anyway) so I'll do Cap :)
A song that reminds me of them:
Death With Dignity by Sufjan Stevens
Genuinely very little needs to be said about this I think, but:
"Spirit of my silence, I can hear you But I’m afraid to be near you And I don’t know where to begin And I don’t know where to begin"
+
"Amethyst and flowers on the table Is it real or a fable? Well, I suppose a friend is a friend And we all know how this will end"
What they smell like:
Brylcreem, moustache wax, tobacco, boot polish, standard military issue soap
An otp:
Julian/Cap, that's it!
A notp:
I don't really like any Cap pairings other than Julian/Cap
Favourite platonic/familial relationships:
He and Kitty are very sweet and seem to need one another/seem to fill an essential role for one another. I also love his relationships with Fanny, Mike, Pat, Alison!
A headcanon that is popular in the fandom but that I disagree with:
That we're going to find out his name at all haha. I also dislike all the popular names for him (Teddy, Thomas, William, etc.)
The position they sleep in:
On his back mostly, but with company I can imagine him being either the little spoon or lying on his back with someone sprawled across him
A crossover AU I’d love to see them in:
I want him to meet Jeeves and Wooster, I think that would be WONDERFUL. I'm sure young Cap in his 20s/30s would have a problem that only the mighty Jeeves could solve. I also would kind of love him to clock them as being gay and being all "good Lord" about it... (but in the end he's more concerned with what an utter fool Bertie is/what a charming fellow Jeeves is)
or the other way around, Bertie (being an utter fool) asking Jeeves subtle questions about Cap and Jeeves trying to explain that he's gay, also as subtly as possible, and Bertie's all "blimey, Jeeves, I didn't realise two chaps could... well, you know, what!" and Jeeves is all "is that so, sir?" and quirks a knowing eyebrow.
My favourite outfit they’ve ever worn
Well, fuck me I guess. I'd love to see him in his civvies, s4 please deliver!

The numbers after the names are the number of stories tagged with that ship. OTP means the number of stories where that is the only relationship tagged on the story. Numbers are accurate as of July 2021.
Story Recommendations
For your reading pleasure, included below is at least one fic rec for each pairing except the crossovers from non-Marvel fandoms (apologies to Mr. Potter & Mr. Stilinski). Most are gen fic, and even in the ones with a romantic pairing, romance is not the focus.
Tony Stark
As Subtle As Cognitive Recalibration by petroltogo (Teen, 8949) tumblr: @tonystarktogo
Standing inside his penthouse, listening to Rogers, Barton and Banner explain to Fury how they just happened to stumble over the Tesseract on a routine security check of Stark Tower’s roof and wouldn’t you know, they’ve managed to fight off the looming alien invasion before it could really start and secure the missing overpowered nightlight is one of the most surreal situations Tony has ever had the displeasure of experiencing.
Peter Parker
the worst field trip ever by shrill_fangirl_screaming (Teen, 3420) tumblr: @i-am-having-an-emotion
"We're on a field trip," Peter said. "To here. And Tony decided to be our tour guide and absolutely embarrass me, so can you please help get him under control?"
Which is how Peter Parker, architect of his own destruction, ended up with not one but two superhero pseudo-dads being annoying on his school field trip.
Steve Rogers
Do You Remember Being Happy? ('Cause I Sure Don't) by GalaxyThreads (Teen, 11022) tumblr: @galaxythreads
That seems about right. He doesn't know how he knows that, though. He does have vague memories of an annoyed fondness at finding peanut butter in some sort of jam. Thor's doing, because he doesn't see the point of using two knives when one works just as fine. He knows that. How does he know that? He knows all those little details, though, almost innately. How can he know these strangers so deeply?
Everyone else below the cut!
Loki
Proprietary by TheThirdMarauder (Teen, 7639)
No, Loki simply wants the Avengers conquered. The details of whom, how, and when matter not. Unless, of course, said details interfere with Loki's plans. Then, well, then none can fault him for protecting his own interests.
Loki has always been exceptionally good at lying to himself.
Natasha Romanov
What Girls Are Made Of by enigma731 (Teen, 4613) tumblr: @enigma731
She rolls her eyes but does as he’s indicated, using his shoulders to leverage herself up onto his back, her arms around his neck and her legs hugging his waist.
“You know,” he says blithely, “this isn’t really what I tend to picture when I think of a hot girl riding me.”
Natasha groans, deciding that if his sense of humor gets them arrested, she’ll kill him herself. “Just go.”
Clint Barton
Dear Clint Barton (circa age 7) by pollyrepeat (Teen, 4221)
With a normal person, this might count as blackmail material, but a) this is a case of mutually assured destruction if ever there was one, and b) Fury is immune to embarrassment. Not just in the regular, Tony Stark way, either, oh no. Things that could possibly end up being embarrassing to Fury get somehow warped and changed until they go from mortifying all the way over into useful and/or good for his image. It’s like a superpower.
Carrying Clint’s small child self around on his shoulders more than once has probably already hit the interagency rumour mill as an example of Fury’s innate awesomeness: good with rocket launchers and small children.
Also available as a podfic!
Bruce Banner
They're Not Wrong by Trumpeteer34 (Teen, 10163)
As Tony began to pace around the hole in the road to keep himself from shooting repulsors at the nearby buildings in a fit of rage, Thor began to study the nearby area. There was no sign of either the Hulk or Bruce Banner beyond the crater. The surrounding area, aside from the rubble of the fight, held no clue as to their friend’s location.
“Guys, he’s gone,” Tony growled into the communicator on their private line, drawing Thor out of his darkening thoughts. “Someone tranqed him and took him. He’s gone.”
Honorary mention goes to the Responsible Science series by @letteredlettered - the stories don’t have the "Avengers Team & Bruce Banner" tag, but they could, and they are amazing. The best Bruce Banner writing I've ever come across.
Thor
Fortunately, I Am Mighty by onward_came_the_meteors (General, 3062)
Steve was the first one to speak. “Are you okay?”
Thor nodded. Which was a bad idea, as it turned out, because now there were little gray lights flashing in front of his eyes. “I’m fine.” Absolutely everyone narrowed their eyes, and he added, “But, uh. Could we possibly not get back in the car just yet?”
Avengers Team
Civil Wasn't by onward_came_the_meteors (General, 7123)
"We're having an ideological conflict here," Tony stated with disbelief. "Are you telling me you still want to go out to dinner?"
"It's a standing engagement, Tony," Rhodey reminded him.
"Not you too—"
"We already had to reschedule from Friday when Natasha was..." Rhodey frowned. "What were you doing?"
The question was directed toward Natasha, who shrugged and said, "Spy stuff."
James "Bucky" Barnes
You Know How I Feel, aka, The Adventures of Bucky and Muffy the Dinosaur by ifeelbetter (Not Rated, 4511) tumblr: @ifeelbetterer
“As you may have heard, Bucky Barnes, a.k.a. The Winter Soldier, recently rescued a tiny part-robot dinosaur during the Avengers’ battle with Dr. Doom in Antarctica,” the other newscaster explained. “Pictures of Barnes and the dinosaur were posted on twitter by fellow Avenger, Clint Barton, a.k.a. Hawkeye, and immediately made Barnes’s new pet America’s sweetheart.”
“Her name’s Muffy,” said Steve."
Wanda Maximoff
and the woman was young again by Mira_Jade (General, 3669)
Tony Stark called them the Cap's Kooky Quintet, and sometimes the term amused her – causing her to lift a sardonic brow where someday a smile would truly smile. She enjoyed the presence of comrades – true comrades – and she enjoyed the way their minds wove and bound together about each other to fluctuate against her senses as one. There was something soothing about being in their midst, and even when their loud and brash ways – their painful Americaness - rubbed her raw and drained on her, it was ever the knitting of their minds that soothed those moments over, and made them inconsequential.
Phil Coulson
Coulson's First Day of School by storiesfortravellers (Teen, 3055)
Coulson looked up at him. “I like drawing pictures with Mr. Rogers. I like having tea parties with Ms. Potts. I like it when Dr. Banner reads me books, and I like it when Natasha teaches me things. And I like when you play with me. You do really good voices when we play action figures. And you’re the only one who lets me do stuff like jump off the high diving board at the pool or eat three cupcakes or play tackle with kids at the park.”
Clint didn’t realize that. He was pretty sure that meant that he was doing something wrong.
Darcy Lewis
Beginner Yoga for Dummies (Darcys) and Sad Hobos by chailover (Teen, 3434)
Darcy had a theory: crazy attracted crazy, working kind of like gravity. It was pretty much her explanation for her life after Thor. And if she had thought the type of crazy Thor attracted was bad, be it Loki or the Warrior Three and Sif, or the dark elves and the Convergence, it was still nothing against what the Avengers manage en masse.
Matt Murdock
Double Blind by smilebackwards (Teen, 2381) tumblr: @smilebackwards
Stark snaps his fingers. “You can’t see half of my inventions. This explains so much about you and why you’ve never been properly impressed by me.”
“Does it?” Matt says, ambiguously.
Sam Wilson
Bystander by scribblemetimbers (Teen, 52029)
“I just want you to know,” Sam says loudly, cautiously raising his hands, “That I’m very poor and very sleep-deprived and literally the only thing you can kill me for right now are my notes.” He pauses. Wait. On second thought: “Please don’t steal my notes.”
“I’m not—I’m not a mugger,” Not Mugger rasps out, and for all that he looks about to keel over and die, the man actually manages to sound offended.
Nick Fury
Bedtime Story by dixiehellcat (Teen, 2532) tumblr: @deehellcat
Fury snorted. “I have to check in with the duty officer. I’ll be back in, let’s say twenty minutes. I expect all of you to have whatever your pre-bedtime routines are completed, and be in here pajama’ed and ready to be read to.”
He tapped the book under his arm, then left with the usual dramatic swish of his long coat. Bruce scratched his head. “Did…he just say be ready to be read to?”
Pepper Potts
Pepper and the Avengers (Which She Knows Nothing About) by rebelmeg (General, 6696) tumblr: @rebelmeg
The Avengers, that mismatched group of hurt and heroism, was one of the most important things in Tony Stark’s life. So, naturally, Pepper had made them an important part of her life too.
Vision
039. Intoxicated by aimmyarrowshigh (Teen, 100) tumblr: @aimmyarrowshigh
It might be nice to fit in, just this once. To lose a bit of composure.
Vision floated over to the refrigerator and, with some timidity, pulled off a magnet. He stuck it to his forehead.
