    Summary

    I had not intended to write a sequel to 'The Grass is Dead, the Gold is Brown', but like... Here I am with Quentin's POV. I don't even have an exact imagined point where this falls, but like I'm already imagining a slight alternate universe in which Quentin and Alice are allowed to just be friends instead of having intensely uncomfortable makeout sessions, so who even knows.

    (I cannot be the only person who hates that their whole relationship is the two of them being REALLY BAD at being together while other people loudly talk about their sexual chemistry at them, like they could have had a good relationship as people if TV writers weren't weird about sex)

    Bookmarker's Notes

    "Their eyes meet, and he can’t begin to decipher everything in Eliot’s, except that he looks… He looks warm and he looks hopeful and he looks like he’s facing a firing squad and he looks like he’s sorry, and it’s all a jumble, and to be fair, Quentin finds most people a jumble and he couldn’t even say that much, and he normally doesn’t do great with eye contact, because either it gets uncomfortable and he can’t hold it at all, or he goes hard in the other direction and just stares into the other person’s eyes until they get uncomfortable, but with Eliot sometimes it’s like…

     

    Weird, but… it’s a weird that works. Like there’s a thing in Eliot that gets the thing in Quentin, and is just generally cool with it."

    Summary

    Post-NWH.
    The Avengers haven’t been much of a group since they defeated Thanos, since a large fraction of the team died, retired, went AWOL or MIA. It’s mainly up to Sam and Bucky – with some help from a still recovering Tony – to catch the latest enhanced serial killer roaming the streets of New York.
    Until a random college student from MIT named Peter Parker suddenly seems to have some answers.
    Sam is cautious. Tony is intrigued. Bucky is the voice of reason for a change.

    Summary

    "Wow, dude, this thing is awesome. Does it generate its own electricity?" Peter flipped the hammer once in the air and caught it, watching in amazement as sparks danced over it. "Like, I know you're the god of thunder, but I didn't know your hammer had magic powers too! That is so cool. I want one. Like, I won't get it, obviously, 'cause I don't want to steal your thunder—no pun intended.”

    He grinned at his totally-intended pun, but Thor didn't react. Not even a twitch of the lips.

    “Okay, yeah, that was a dumb joke,” Peter admitted. “Sorry. Here's your hammer, Mr. Thor.” He held out the weapon to its rightful owner.

    Thor just stared.

     

    (Peter Parker meets Thor for the first time. It does not go as expected.)
