    Summary

    You are a well-off, smart, successful black woman who has had her IBM for two years--that is, your Ideal Black Man--and are gearing up for your wonderful boyfriend to propose to you, only to find out you were dead wrong. He instead dumps you and reveals he's getting engaged to the side chick he's been cheating on you with for the past six months. Angry and humiliated, you crawl into a bottle and drown your sorrows when you hear the hypnotic voice of a man singing a Hozier song in a dive bar. That is where you meet Sergeant James "Bucky" Barnes--lead guitarist for the band, The Howling Commandos, and your very first feral sex one-night-stand. After your drunken fling with him, you realize something truly horrible yet great.

    You've never had an orgasm from sex with your ex-boyfriend, but Bucky's sex immediately rocks your world and after you experience phenomenal feral sex for the first time, now you're addicted. He drives you crazy, but as you continue sneaking around with this mechanic-slash-guitarist, you realize the Hozier song he sang when you first met is true as ever.

    Bucky/Black Female Reader. Loosely based on Something New (2006) and Guess Who's Coming to Dinner (1967).

    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.
