“At least he's not approaching this time like a man approaches the gallows,” Benedict comments from across the room.
Anthony doesn't point out that the last time he tried to get married, he wanted the whole business over and done with. Traditions? Customs? Rituals? None of those were important; being wedded was what mattered.
This time, it's not just the prospect of being wedded that Anthony wants, but the marriage he intends to make with Kate.

Whatever it takes (post iW - no endgame) - Clint/Nat -Clint finds her. 1/1 (endgame fic is great as well but only limited endgame fic on this)
@kotaface / aveyune23: An Infinite Beauty is an incomplete WIP, but I still think of this Pacific Trail AU from time to time & wish for more - Jyn realizing she’s utterly unready and pushing on regardless is so characteristic
@tielan: (with the caveat that I know I haven’t read everything by such a prolific author) I remembered set fire to the rain from a Yuletide exchange years ago and was delighted to re-discover it! Jason Bourne/Nicky Parsons, in which Nicky has her own secrets
@the-space-narwhal / spacenarwhal: when I’m returning from so far away caught my eye because of the title from my favourite Van Morrison song, and it’s a warm, comforting slice of established relationship fic
[ send me three fic writers and I’ll share my favourite stories by each ]

Ship: Maria Hill & Natasha Romanoff, brotp
Rating: Teen
Major Tags: Graphic Descriptions of Violence
Summary: Five times Maria Hill doesn’t understand Natasha Romanoff, and why she might be better off that way.
Do you like spies? Do you like strong female characters? Do you like characters who don’t get enough screen time being the center characters in a fanfic? Then this is the fic for you!
Now, I have to admit that I read this fic a couple of years ago, but I still remember absolutely loving it. It was great to read Frea_O and tielan’s take on how Maria and Natasha might have met, and what their working relationship could be. It also shows that both of these women are capable spies, in their own way. Also, there’s a roadtrip portion, and who doesn’t love a good roadtrip fic?
tielan replied to your post “Drop a line of dialogue and a ship in my asks, let’s see what happens.”
Maria Hill/Steve Rogers: "Are you always armed?" "Aren't you?"
Steve scratched the back of his head as he tried to come up with a satisfactory answer. Was he always armed? Not in the traditional sense; he didn’t carry a gun these days, and he didn’t always keep his shield within arm’s reach. But being Captain America and knowing how to improvise weapons (or, as Barton had once put it, “Being, like, a deadly MacGyver”) on the fly? “Guess I am,” he said. “But I meant...”
“Yes?” Maria asked, lowering her gun and stepping around him to check the door of the flat they were sharing while they laid low after an op. She’d come barreling out of the bathroom when he’d dropped a water bottle on the floor. “What did you mean?”
Steve gestured somewhat helplessly to the thin tank top with its string-like straps and to the incredibly short shorts Maria had donned for sleeping. He’d half-expected Commander Hill to have a specialized SHIELD uniform for sleeping. Not...that.
“For heaven’s sake, Rogers, just spit it out,” Maria said, rolling her eyes.
Steve finally gave up: “Where were you even keeping the gun?”
“That’s for me to know and you to find out. Later. Much later. If you’re lucky.” And with a final eye-roll that seemed almost fond, Maria strode around him and back to the corner of the room that she’d claimed.
Steve, having no idea what to make of that particular statement—either the gun or getting lucky—found he didn’t get much sleep that night.

The bitterness was still there. Delicately put: they had issues. Bluntly put: they'd have to deal with them.
