Summary
“The limp is psychosomatic,” Sherlock agreed, in an uncharacteristically soft tone. “But that doesn’t mean that it’s ‘fake.’”
John pressed his lips together in a thin line. “I don’t see the difference.”
OR - when a chance startling encounter on the street brings back John's psychosomatic limp, it brings complicated feelings with it.

Summary
“Sherlock,” John continues, careful and quiet. “I’ve seen your back. I know you were hurt. I don’t want to pry, I don’t want to cause you discomfort but...I’m starting to think something else happened there. In Serbia.”
Sherlock rolls away and sits up on the edge of the bed, his back to John.
“A great many things happened in Serbia,” he says, flat and remote. “None of them were pleasant.”

Summary
“I-I sorry I just-I know you work with Spider Man and-” The man seems to crumble, tongue tripping over itself as he tries to force out words and apologies.
“Easy there, son-what's your name?” Steve asks, hands placating, face pinched in concern. The man hiccups, throat bobbing up and down harshly.
“Skip Westcott, sir.” He answers, eyes trained completely and utterly on the floor. His face is pale, white washed, and he looks like an utter wreck. Natasha’s brows jump but quickly lowers-she's sure she heard something about a Westcott awhile back, something to do with a legal case.

Summary
The Incident™ is mostly Nat’s fault. Mostly. Some of it was Bucky.
In his defence, he thought everyone knew he was gay.
_____________
“Steve, those acrylic nails are pretty fucking queer,” Bucky says.Everyone gets very quiet.
“Bucky,” Clint whispers, horrified. “You can’t just say stuff like that.”
OR: that one in which Stucky is very, very gay and the Avengers are very, very oblivious.

Summary
Bucky tapped him on the shoulder, swaying back and forth a little as he waited for the man to turn around. “Hello,” he said, and then promptly forgot what else he was going to say, because this guy was fucking beautiful. “Wow. Good face.”
Two of the guy’s friends, a man wearing a suit that fit so well it had to be bespoke and a man with a cute little gap between his front teeth, started cracking up. The petite redhead sitting next to them cocked her head to the side and pulled her phone out of her handbag. Beautiful Face just looked kind of pained, so Bucky redirected. He was a gentleman. He could take a hint. No hitting on beautiful guys who were uncomfortable with that sort of thing, no matter how lickable their jawlines were.
“Hello,” he repeated, doing his best to mind his manners. “I’m very sorry to bother you. Can I have a piggy-back ride?”

Summary
Therapy is a lot harder than Sam had let on, Steve thinks. Talking about things he’s never talked about, revealing things he’s never revealed. And to someone who’d started out a perfect stranger. It goes against every instinct in himself, all of which tell him to keep these things to himself, to let it all out only in the physical violence of a fist against a punching bag.
It’s been a month now since Bucky—Jigsaw—came back of his own volition after the auction debacle and his escape from the Tower. Since they first pissed off the FBI by ruining a handful of raids against Clint’s “tracksuit mafia.” Since they raided that bank vault and found everything waiting there inside it that Jigsaw had said would be there. Waiting, perhaps, to be used.
It’s been a month, but it feels so much longer.
(Or: The one where the Avengers have successfully brought the asset in after his murder sprees, and the therapy (and relationships) can begin in earnest. A direct sequel to Blue-Eyed Matador.)

Summary
The asset is programmed not to strike a handler. Not to struggle no matter who is doing what to it. And it complies. The asset is programmed not to shy away when technicians approach torch-first to take it apart and put it back together in the name of science, research, progress. And it complies. The asset is programmed not to object to the mouth guard, the restraints, the chair. Not to beg or plead when it is left empty and hungry in its cryo tube. And it complies. The asset is programmed not to so much as consider harming an operator, the highest of all members of the organization. And...
And if the silent, liquid fury in the asset’s eyes is any indicator, the asset does not comply.
(Or: The one where the asset is thawed out during the Chitauri attack on New York, escapes, and goes hunting for revenge with the Avengers hot on the trail.)

Summary
Sam Wilson has been witness to a lot of things he wishes he could unsee. Civilian families shot dead in their cars because of miscommunications at checkpoints. Riley’s body spiralling to the ground in a smoke-plumed plummet. His own face in his bathroom mirror after waking up hung-over as hell at two in the afternoon, the day after the anniversary of Riley’s death, year after year after year.
And now, in an abandoned bunker on the outskirts of Boston, a seemingly unremarkable manila folder at the bottom of a filing cabinet.
