    Summary

    “Joel,” you said, almost unsure why you were saying his name.

    He looked at you again, like he’d wait all night if you needed him to.

    But instead of saying what you wanted to say—what terrified you to say—you offered a small, broken smile and whispered, “Thank you.”

    And Joel, ever steady, just nodded once. “Anytime.”

    OR

    When Joel Miller is hired to renovate your kitchen, it seems like just another project. That is, until the days stretch on, walls come down, and something unexpected begins to take shape. Amid the dust and drywall, you find yourself growing attached to the rugged older contractor, and before long, you’re no longer just picturing a new kitchen, but a life with him in it.

    Summary

    You squeezed your eyes shut, willing yourself not to cry. You were left alone to fend for yourself and a child. You didn’t know how. Fuck, you’d never even had to look after a fish, and now some laughing deity had put a child in your care.

    But you made a promise.

    You’d give your life trying to keep her safe.

    Even if that meant following a stranger, who seemed to hate your existence, to a settlement you had never heard of.

    What else was there left in this world for you?

    ...

    Set 15 years after the outbreak if Joel was never asked to take Ellie to the fireflies. Instead, he continues his quest to find his brother, finding you and little more than he bargained for on his way.

    Summary

    “It’s clearly something,” Natasha says, because she's always been able to read Steve far too well. “If you’re making that face over a simple text.”

    (or: Steve is just looking for a way to get a box of things back to its rightful owner when he sends the email. He's not expecting to get anything beyond a forwarding address in return. He's definitely not expecting to fall for the man who responds. An AU featuring Steve, Bucky, one terrible ex-boyfriend, so many text messages, a shameless amount of flirting, a little bit of sexting, some slightly concerned friends, plenty of kisses, and a lot of feelings.)

    Two chapters. Both posted at once.

    Summary

    For all his strength and bulk, he becomes fragile when she wraps her arms around his shoulders and kisses his forehead as they sit there in the euphoric afterglow of it. She knows now how he manages to make himself so small to the world sometimes. It's an inside thing; it's a question of vulnerability.

    Summary

    To be fair, Steve is moderately drunk the first time. Not smashed, but drunk enough to make Tony and Clint’s ideas sound brilliant and hilarious.

    Or: “the story where steve gets dared to call a phone sex line and of course bucky is on the other end. and then feelings happen.”
