Summary
“I feel like literally, actually saving the world has given you unrealistic expectations. Most folks don’t need you to save the entire world on the regular, Sam," said Sarah.
“I hear you,” said Sam, rueful. He sighed and tipped his head back, pressing the heels of his hands against his eyes. “But I still kind of feel like I have to save the entire world, if I’m carrying this shield.”
“Sam,” said Bucky, and Sam lowered his hands and opened his eyes to look at him, only to find himself the subject of Bucky’s staring problem yet again. “Let’s just go out there. See who we can help, how."
Taking on the Captain America mantle is all well and good, but unfortunately, it quickly becomes pretty obvious to Sam that carrying the shield doesn't guarantee a paying gig as a superhero—at least, not any kind of job that fits with the kind of Cap Sam wants to be. But when it comes down to it, all Sam wants to do is use the shield to help people, so paying gig or not, he and Bucky set out on the road to do just that, and to figure out what kind of superheroes they want to be. Slowly but surely, they figure out just what kind of partners they want to be too. (Hint: it is not 'just a couple of guys.')

Summary
For Buck realizing he's Bisexual in his 30s sucks. Realizing he's bi and hopelessly attracted to his straight single dad best friend? Reeaally sucks.
Buck has some self reflection to do and some hard realizations to face. He's also trying to get better at taking care of himself. He's not great at it.
*This fic will oscillate WILDLY between fluff, angst, smut and back again. Be warned!

Summary
It was fall at the 118. That was supposed to mean pumpkin spice lattes, Athena’s world-famous pumpkin pie, and the yearly tradition of getting bullied by children at the annual firehouse trick-or-treating.
Instead, it was a disastrous cornucopia of Maddie’s pregnancy, the Buckley parents visiting, and a sexuality crisis for good measure.
Oh, and?
It was wildfire season.Series

Summary
Peter Parker wasn't surprised when his parents died. Completely heartbroken, but not surprised. He had always known his luck in life, the cards he had been dealt. The only kid in school who noticed him, Flash Thompson, reminded him of that every day. How his "Parker Luck" would be the destruction of all good things. Only beginning to touch the iceberg of grief, Peter is sent to a family friend and biologist, Skip Westcott. And things just kept spiraling from there.
Or…
What if Peter didn’t have an Uncle Ben to go to after his parent’s accident? What if, instead, he had a family friend?
