    Summary

    “Did you shoot me?” Phil asks, confused.

    “In my own defense, I didn’t notice you standing behind me,” Clint says.

    “In my own defense, I was standing behind you.” Phil sits up with a small groan. Clint tries to offer a hand, but gets his arm thumped by the arrow. That’s probably fair. “I’m not up on my archery technique, but doesn’t that mean you’re fantastically bad at this?”

    One of the most Hawkguy-ish Hawkeye's I've read in a while, and I LOVED it. Author has a definite way with snarky words & humorous descriptions --->

    “Like I said,” Tasha says, and allows him to put his bare foot on her lap, even though it’d hamper a quick getaway. This is how Clint knows she really loves him. That, and the whacks upside the back of the head, the constant attempts to set him up with someone, and the way she sometimes puts paralytics in his coffee to try them out.
    -

    Phil, who is made out of kittens and rainbows and everything beautiful in the world, doesn’t ask him anymore questions. “Let me make you a plate,” he says, sighing a bit. “You look like you could use a bath.”

    -Once Sam is gone, the tension in the air dissipates. Okay, it’s mostly Clint’s tension, but it’s his apartment, so he can tension it if he wants to.

     

    “Clint trusts people,” she says. That pauses Phil; he looks up at her, curious. Her gaze is steady and sharp. “I don’t.”

    “Neither do I.”

    She nods, like it’s the answer she expected. “I was going to tell you to be careful with him, but I don’t think I will. He’s a big boy. He can take care of himself.”

    Phil lets his forehead wrinkle. She can’t possibly mean that.

    He says with conviction, “He really can’t.”

    Their eyes meet in perfect understanding. She snorts. It’s an indelicate sound. “He really, really, really can’t.”

    Spider-Man always hit the attempted rapists the hardest.

    This was not due to some kind of personal connection.

    It wasn't.

    Summary

    Earth’s mightiest heroes aren’t babysitters. Yet, somehow, they seem to have become the unofficial guardians of Midtown high school’s decathlon team.

    Like most of the Avenger’s current problems—the goat living in the penthouse, the semi-sentient AI with a vendetta against Sam, the Asgardian death pigeon who’s seeking a mate—it’s all Peter Parker’s fault.

    Tony rubs his temples. Peter grins that shit-eating grin of his. Damn, if Tony doesn’t want to smash his head into the wall. He’s told himself time and time again that he won’t react to Peter’s antics—honestly, the more he deals with the Mathletes, the more he can handle the US Government, Nick Fury, Hydra, and all the other shit in his life. Nothing—nothing—is more frightening than teenagers.

    Tony decides to change the topic.

    Summary

    "Is there a reason you're calling this late at night?" Tony asks, worried in spite of himself. "Tell me what's going on, kid."

    “Everything is one-hundred-percent fine,” Peter says. “Seriously, I've never been better. But I should let you know I have about thirty bricks of cocaine in my bedroom. Also, Karen won't let me turn off Instant Kill Mode. Also, Walmart discontinued my special razzleberry pink squeezy lemonade. Which isn't related to tonight's patrol, I'm just bummed about it.”

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Tony gives up trying to subdue the Teletubbies and just turns to stare at Peter. He can’t. He really, really can’t with this kid. Even after all this time—even after all the insane, bizarre, borderline nonsensical stories that Peter has hit Tony with, he still finds new ways to be shocking. Tony wants to shake him until he agrees to make better choices. Then he wants to wrap him in bubble wrap and put him in a locked room until he reaches adulthood. Whatever. It’s not paternal, the hysteria that’s rising up in his chest. It’s not.

    Summary

    “What do you want, my son?” Talia asked him. “What do you truly want?”

    And when Jason pushed aside his obsession with Bruce, the answer was so clear. He knew exactly what he wanted. He knew what he’d always wanted, ever since he was that little street rat who spent money he needed for food on making himself look clean. Because he’d needed to look clean and presentable to get into the public libraries. Because they wouldn’t have let a dirty homeless kid touch the books.

    “I want to go to college.”

    And Talia had made that happen for him.

    (AU where, at the end of his League of Assassins training, Jason decides to go to Metropolis for college instead of going back to Gotham for revenge. Things spiral from there. The title is so sarcastic by the way. There’s nothing regular about Jason Todd.)
