    Summary

    "There's something wrong with me. An emptiness. I thought throwing myself into work would make it go away but....."
    Alexei regards her with concern. Melina squeezes her hand gently.

    "It is okay to feel lost, Yelena. In my opinion, perhaps you need a friend."

    She would be okay with the idea of a friend, if she was not sure that her entire world would come to an end if she lost Kate Bishop. Because Yelena always loses the people who matter most.

    Or: glimpses in time that span across many months of Yelena pining for Kate. I gave Yelena her own pov and we're hanging on for the ride.

    Summary

    “The exit wound. Repeat what I just did.” Yelena thrusts the needle and thread back into Kate’s hands, leaning forward so that the archer can access her back.

    “Guess they don’t teach manners at Black Widow academy” Kate regrets the words as soon as they’re out of her mouth, she’s yanked forwards by the front of her suit, tip of her nose brushing against Yelena's.

    “Say something smart again. I will cut your tongue out.” The widow spits.

    Their eyes lock, and the atmosphere in the room shifts for what feels like the umpteenth time tonight. Kate’s gaze flicks to Yelena’s lips, tinted crimson thanks to a small split.

     

    Kiss her.

     

    ————

     

    Set just after the events of Hawkeye.

    Yelena struggles with her new found freedom. Kate’s life has fallen apart. Clint is sick of both their shit. Sonya is a wind up merchant, and someone wants Kate dead. Maybe somewhere along the way everyone can find some kind of redemption.

    AKA, Kate and Yelena get their happy ending.

    Summary

    She did it. She's in LA. She's on her own. She's living her dream. But what her naive 19-year-old self failed to consider is that the music industry is an adult world with adult competition that requires adult experience. Can Beca get by with the 1.5 friends she managed to scrape together, or will she drown in the hole she'd dug herself into?

    ...or the AU where Beca holds her dad to the deal they made and moves to LA after trying one year of college

    Summary

    Once again, on the brink of Christmas, the paths of our beloved blonde and brunette intertwine. Is it the hand of fate at play, or perhaps a deliberate intertwining journey?

    As Kate embarks on a job, entrusted by a friend or perhaps a friend of a friend, her pursuit takes her through unexpected alleys and into surprising corners. The threads connecting her to the blonde might have been visible had she only looked a little closer, a connection that Yelena, perhaps intentionally, chose not to unveil.

    Join our cherished archer and assassin duo as they navigate the dance of fitting into each other's stories, finding themselves constantly stepping on each other's toes and into high-spirited predicaments.

    Summary

    Returning to New York after a week on Clint’s farm, Kate finds herself struggling to juggle her life as the new CEO of Bishop Security and her “late night extracurricular activities”. With her new friends, they work together to uncover the conspiracy of a human trafficking ring in Hells Kitchen. Everything comes crashing down when a familiar face reappears and Kate realises she is longing for more than a simple friendship with a certain blonde assassin.

    - - -

    “To get to the data drive, we need a special key chip only kept by the Bishop Security CEO and a big distraction throughout the gala night to break into the vault.” Valentina continued, looking expectantly at Yelena.

    “Okaaay…? Not a problem, Kate Bishop has really bad awareness.” The assassin shrugged. This was not the Thunderbolts' first heist mission- why was Valentina looking at her weird?

    Her handler gave her an unreadable smile. “No no, my dear. We need to play the long con. You need to go as her date.”
