Summary
Usually, when Death is involved, the earth shatters and apocalypses threaten mankind. Only worse things happen, bigger catastrophes — like when Death finds out that his beloved Cadillac's carburetor is ruined and his trusted mechanic has perished. A story about two lonely men, about classic cars and the hunt for the perfect 1959 62 Series spare part, involving Ebay, fast food and, as strange as it might sound, love and little brothers.

Late To Settle by alcibiades
Fandoms: Inception (2010), His Dark Materials - Philip Pullman
01 May 2014
Tags
Summary
An Inception/His Dark Materials crossover which is otherwise canon-compliant. Thank you to finch for the beta.
It's a fairly straightforward job. Arthur is uncertain why he took it, other than to avoid ennui, but maybe that's reason enough. He didn't know Eames was on the job until Eames showed up the first day, to the warehouse in Toronto, and he had seen Mekhmet before he saw Eames, anyway.

"The important word in that sentence was bees."
(Or: the one in which Pepper accidentally introduces Bucky to gardening therapy.)

PEPPER IS AMAZING AND ACCEPTING. BUCKY IS ADORABLE AND COMPETENT AND LEARNING TO SOCIALIZE. ONE HUNDRED ELEVENTY BILLION OUT OF TEN WOULD READ AGAIN.

Summary
As a child, Phil Coulson was vaccinated against whooping cough. In one version of the story, the vaccination held and he went on to become Agent Coulson, SHIELD bad-ass and Avengers liaison. In another, though, he was one of the few the vaccine doesn't protect and he nearly died when he was ten, suffering permanent lung damage and recurrent asthma. This is the story of what happened after that.

Summary
Clint doesn’t want to go out. Doesn’t want to make conversation, doesn’t even want to eat. But he can’t show any of that, not if he doesn’t want to be rendered inactive by the psychs. Being useful is all he has left.
What he does want, mostly, is to be taken out back like Old Yeller. But that isn’t an option. He doesn’t get the easy way out.

Summary
One day he looks up from the scaffolding and realizes that he’s almost exactly at Jaeger height and has to wrap his hand tight against the metal to keep from stepping out into the air. Not because he wants to kill himself or anything, just because for a split second his mind felt that old equilibrium and he just knew he should be able to, should be able to walk straight across the valley in front of him and out into the sea and on forever until he finds whatever’s next.
