Summary
“No doubt you have heard what mischief the boy has gotten into.” Brandon addressed his words to me, though his gaze remained fixed on his nephew. “Tell Megan what you’ve done, Jeremy.”
Jeremy, head hung low, addressed himself to me. “I only meant to be slightly naughty, Miss Megan, I didn’t mean for things to get so out of hand.”
“I did not ask you to make excuses for yourself,” Brandon said firmly, but not ungently.

“Would it kill you to have tea with your brother?” He asked as he dabbed at the cut with a wad of cotton he'd soaked in antiseptic.

*
Or, Enola and her brother (with some encouragement from Watson) sort out some of their issues.

Summary
Connie Johnson was training to be a coke dealer.
If she'd been asked a year ago what her career aspirations were, she probably would've given something like, “what's it to you?” as an answer. That, topped with what was becoming her signature ferocious little grin, would've been enough to scare most enquirers off.
That was probably still the answer she'd give today if asked.
It was just that her eyes had been opened, recently, to the possibilities the world held. She'd had a realization of sorts. That she could aim high, view her present circumstances as training, bear the rough parts with what grace she could scrounge up because, well, you couldn't always escape all the elbows life threw your way, could you?
*
Or, an up-and-coming Connie finds herself in a tiny spot of trouble.

Summary
“I have not felt invincible lately,” she admits, “or strong.”
Clint’s silent for a moment, then says, “That doesn’t mean you aren’t. Showing up anyway makes you strong in my book. Nat would’ve been proud as hell, you know.”
Yelena swallows hard. “You sound like Bucky.”
It’s meant to tease, to deflect, but she’s sure he hears the tremble in her voice anyway.
---
On the fifth anniversary of Natasha’s death, Yelena lashes out, convinced she’s the only one who still cares. When things go too far, she retreats to Clint’s farm, where quiet truths wait to be spoken. Together, she and Clint navigate grief, guilt, and the messy business of learning to trust a team that doesn’t always feel like one.
**contains disciplinary spanking of an adult**

Summary
As far as the rest of the world is concerned, Gary 'Eggsy' Unwin is a registered Dominant. It's on his driver's licence. It's on his National Insurance card. Hell, it's even on his bloomin' GCSE certificates. And the fact that it's all a load of bollocks is a secret Eggsy had intended to take to his grave.
Course, he hadn't been expectin' a bloody sub-drop to sweep in and knock him on his arse in the wake of the Valentine Massacre. Turns out grief and adrenaline ain't a good combination.
