    Summary

    Injured and skittish but nothing she can't handle. Isn't the first vet she's found on the street and taken in as a roommate. He just needs some help getting back on his feet.
    At least... that's what she had thought. What do you say when someone gives you such a bright smile because they honestly didn't know they had a heartbeat and now they can feel not just yours but theirs too?

    The Asset is injured, lost, and... its new handler is the kindest its ever had. She's so patient even when the Asset malfunctions.

    Summary

    Peter’s used to life delighting in messing him over with secret depths and hidden bullshit, making his other superpower terminal misjudgment. Everybody’s hiding something. That’s Humanity 101. It’s not paranoid to expect a personality trait or two at odds with their brand. People are complicated. Not one-dimensional. People contain multitudes, Parker. If only Peter didn’t keep forgetting that.

    But this is Cap. As in, the Cap. Captain America. Steve Rogers. Who, at most, should be doing a decent thing and packing basic-level secrets, and not—

    Which is why this is… oh.

    Summary

    Clint didn’t mean to kiss the Winter Soldier only days after being rescued from the Raft. He didn’t mean to trip his way into a time machine in the lab in Wakanda. He definitely, 100%, didn’t mean to spawn three alternate realities for his dumbass self to fumble through saving.

    Now if only he can stop telling everyone he meets he’s from the future, rescue his loved ones from their tragic backstories, and get all three versions of James to like him as much as he likes them, he might have a chance to make this whole thing work out.
