Safe as Houses by OracleGlass
Fandoms: Marvel Cinematic Universe, The Avengers (Marvel Movies)
28 Dec 2015
Tags
Summary
Written for the Be Compromised 2015 Secret Santa. Some minor editing and cleanup has occurred. (Why does it always take me so long to spot the typos?)
Prompt: Summary/Prompt Used: 1) Tell me about their safe houses, bolt-holes, private off-the-grid sanctuaries, what have you, that they both still keep around the world. Where are they, exactly? How long have they known each other before they mention each place or take the other person there? What do they keep there/what's in all the different locations? What makes one of them finally crack and head to one of their safe houses instead of a SHIELD safe house?
The request was also for a Natasha-centric story.

Summary
Sabetha and Nazca having fun with girlish things, like buying shoes, and gossiping, and perhaps a little light plotting.
The title is from Venetian poet Veronica Franco:
I drew courage from the risk I'd avoided,
though a woman, born to milder tasks;
and, blade in hand, I learned warrior's skills,
so that, by handling weapons, I learned
that women by nature are no less agile than men.... -

Summary
As magic slowly creeps back into the world, there are many people and many small stories.
A river man, or a man of the woods or of any farm-life
of these States or of the coast, or the lakes or
Kanada,
Me wherever my life is lived, O to be self-balanced for
contingencies,
To confront night, storms, hunger, ridicule, accidents,
rebuffs, as the trees and animals do. -
