    Summary

    A memory of flames licking at the pillars of the throne room on the ancestral plane, N’Jadaka’s mouth curled in a mocking sneer, filled Shuri’s memory. Fire and earth. “You were happy to die at my hands,” she echoed, the skin on her arms pebbling as a shiver ran through her.

    “Yes. But I only wished for one thing, and I had not gotten it before my death. So I was glad you showed mercy in the end.”

    “And what did you wish for?” Shuri asked, advancing on him from the bed. “Your people swimming up the river to break Wakanda’s borders? An empire of blood against all other nations in the world?”

    “I wished,” said Namor very quietly, watching her and not moving, “to hear you say my name.”

    ____________________

    Shuri, who has given up the throne of Wakanda, has a lot of time to think in Haiti about the future of Wakanda. Fortunately, someone else is more than happy to offer some assistance, but when new developments arise, she and Namor of Talokan must forge a tentative alliance while navigating a more treacherous sea than either of them expected.

    Summary

    “Prince Lotor,” Allura whispered, savoring his name on her tongue. Her soon-to-be husband. For the first time since her father had told her about the impending nuptials she found herself excited about the prospect, the golden future laid out before them. They’d likely have a whole gaggle of children, all silver-haired and smiling, and they’d rule their united kingdom with love and mercy, bringing about such an age of peace and prosperity as no one had ever seen before.

    Of course, the reality of their marriage wasn’t to be quite what she’d expected. Though perhaps, in some ways, it was to be significantly better.

    Summary

    It turns out, when he’s not on the run, when he’s got time to evaluate what he wants out of life and to live something close to ‘civilian’, Bucky Barnes is a hot fucking mess. This isn’t the first time Sam’s found him asleep on the couch, or wearing yesterday’s eyeliner, or investigating whether iced-cake vodka shots do anything to get past the serum. The worst thing is it’s hard to stay stone-cold in the face of Bucky Barnes doing his best as a messy little twink with tousled wavy hair and pretty cheekbones and a fucking tongue piercing. The shit Steve had kicked up over that was ridiculous; apparently watching Bucky get lectured by Steve Rogers for half a fucking hour over needle safety and communicable diseases is enough for Sam to have kind of developed a soft spot.

    Sam’s just trying to focus on the ‘mess’ part, okay, because contemplating ‘hot’ and ‘Bucky’ in the same sentence is not something he needs in his life. He’s just trying to live, that’s all. He doesn't deserve this. He doesn't deserve any of this.

    Summary

    Mel was supposed to work under Valentina for the next few years and learn the ropes. She hoped to leverage her relationship with the director of the CIA to be able to work with the World Security Council. That was supposed to be the plan. It had been the plan since she graduated.

    ”You wanted to make the world a better place” Valentina recalled their previous conversation, “Then make sure our new 'heroes' have everything they need and are up to snuff for their new assignments.”

    Mel sighed and braced herself, needing to hear it directly from her boss.

    “Valentina, you’re - not seriously putting me in charge of the Avengers?”

    ____________________________________

    When Mel got promoted to Official Liaison to the Avengers, she anticipated handling the press, briefing the team for missions, and overall providing the World's New Mightiest Heroes with whatever they needed.

    Keeping a lonely, de-powered Robert 'Bob' Reynolds company at the Watchtower, however, was definitely not part of the job description.

    Summary

    In which Bucky Barnes keeps getting hurt, just to get a little attention from the nurse who’s too good at making him feel better.

    In more ways than one.

    Summary

    It starts in Paris.

     

    “You can’t steal things just because you like them,” Sam tells Bucky, feeling innately that this is a losing battle, and Bucky cocks his head to the side, considers Sam very thoughtfully.

    “Really,” he says. “I’m stealing you, aren’t I?”

    Summary

    Silence fell. Alexei lifted his hands up. “Well, what are we waiting for?” he shouted, gesturing at everything: the monitor showing the falling engine in real time, the countdown, the communications from the teams, the images of terror-stricken refugees filing into a temporary neighborhood in New Asgard, in Manitoba, in Ohio and Wakanda and China. Someone had set a fire in protest outside the United Nations. Smoke rose, obscuring the flags. “NOAA said this morning that all of the Eastern Seaboard needs to be evacuated. American refugees are flooding into Canada. Too many tensions, huh? Going to cause a war if we don’t do something. So what are we waiting for?”

    “A vote.” Bucky’s voice was sour and quiet as he shoved off from the wall and walked over. “We’re a team. We act like one. So we’ll vote on it.”

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    When a falling hunk of space junk threatens the fate of the planet, the New Avengers (and Bob) must make a choice: risk the Void, or save the world? But the Void has plans of his own, and Yelena is always nearby...

    Summary

    You watch him raise his beer to his lips, wipe his mouth with the back of his hand. He stares at the bar. "There's safety in being gentle," he says slowly. "Most people like being safe."

    Elliott. Sebastian. Harvey. All good guys. You enjoyed your time together. But you're still looking for someone to give it to you like you want. Fuck you hard, make you feel something.

    Shane isn't boyfriend material. He tells you to fuck off and you argue drunkenly. You don't know anything about him and he wants to keep it that way. But when he propositions you one night, you know instinctively that he's the man for the job.

    Two rules. Keep it casual, and don't try to fix him.

    (You break them both.)

    Summary

    Richter’s grip on the tankard was ironclad, his knuckles white as the voices around him faded into a dull roar. He was trying—truly trying—to keep his composure, but the sight of that man leaning too close to Annette made his blood boil.

    The stranger’s laughter was loud, too loud, and his gaze lingered on her with a familiarity that Richter despised.

     

    OR

    Annette gets hit on, Richter is jealous, they make up their minds on what their relationship is after a steamy night

    Summary

    Eurydice is still adjusting to this new Orpheus, with his matted hair, and soulful expression. Good thing she has an eternity to figure it out.

    It’s strange, to be at the lead with Orpheus, but Eurydice’s never been one to be thrown off by change, and she strides forward. It’s nice, somewhat. She’d always been the harmony to Orpheus’s melodies in life. To find something new in death—she hadn’t thought it’d be possible.
