Jul. 13th, 2024 01:35 pmsasheneskywalkerDark Matter by mysterycyclone
The last thing Peter sees is Tony's horrified, heartbroken expression leaning over him. The guilt in his eyes is almost worse than the burning pain that's taking Peter apart piece by piece. The world starts to go dark.
There's a flash of gold and green. For one moment, he finds himself standing amongst the Guardians and others. And then darkness again. It feels like blinking; an extended period of nothingness that ends as abruptly as it begins. One moment there’s nothing, the next there’s light.
“Easy,” a woman says. Her words are gentle, and carry a slight accent that he can’t place. "I'm called Wonder Woman. What's your name?"

Revenge is a Word I Haven't Yet Defined (I’m not sure I’m worthy of such theatrics) by OliOcelot
After the Lazarus Pits and a year of training with the League, Talia sends Jason to Gotham for revenge. Except Jason isn’t as deep as she thinks. The thing is, he expected to see Bruce - Batman - and be livid. He let him die, replaced him. He should be mad.
He isn’t.
In the end, it’s hard to think of yourself as being replaced when you died. So yeah, he’s angry, but he’s not angry enough for revenge. Not like Talia wants him to be.
So he focuses on Red Hood and cleaning up Crime Alley, and scraps any ideas of revenge he had left. They’re unnecessary. Counterproductive, in fact, because now that he’s actually seen Bruce, all he really wants is to go home. Maybe have a conversation or two about how bad Bruce and Dick messed up, but at home.
Instead, he gets caught up in world altering magic from some criminal in over his head, and Jason finds himself tumbling through universes into a New York filled with heroes that he’s never even heard of and a lack of Gotham and Metropolis that can only mean one thing. This isn’t the world he knows.
All he wants is to get home, to make amends, to try again. Too bad none of them know he’s gone. Not that anyone would think to look for a dead boy.

To Dig a Grave in Winter by OliOcelot
The Winter Soldier isn’t the only Asset that Hydra has. This will be their downfall.
Or, Jason Todd rose from his grave only to be taken by Hydra and turned into a living weapon, known as the Gravewalker. Meeting the Winter Soldier might just make it worth it.

With the incursions imminent, Khonshu steals his avatar away to another dimension, where there's little risk of the universes colliding.
Marc is unprepared for Gotham, but it's probably safe to say that Gotham is equally unprepared for Marc.

“I think this is yours.”
Bruce doesn’t even have to look up. He already knows precisely what this is about. Containing a sigh, he rubs the bridge of his nose, and says, “If he bit you, I can pay for the emergency room visit—”
“I did not bite him,” Damian says, outraged.

Or Dick and Tim get thrown into the MCU and meet the Avengers.

If It's A Highway by there_must_be_a_lock
Bucky’s been running for a week when the supposedly-untraceable burner phone he stole from a HYDRA warehouse starts ringing. He’s in a gas station bathroom off a remote highway close to the Croatian border, getting ready to bleach his hair; the ringtone bounces shrilly off the bare tiles and makes his jaw clench tight.
[Or: the one where Bucky is hired to train Jason, and he ends up learning a thing or two himself.]

There but for Grace go I by AutumnHobbit
Frank Castle comes to Gotham on the trail of some human traffickers who picked the wrong city. Imagine his surprise to find he isn’t the only one out for their blood. When things turn sour he decides to get involved, which leads to a lot of unexpected drama.
And he thought New York’s costumed paraders were bad.

The Five Stages of Neighborly Affection by AlannaLioness, phonecallfromgod, youshallnotfinditso
Between Matt being back from the dead, Nelson & Murdock 2.0 and a fancy Manhattan apartment from his (former) sharky boss, Foggy feels like he's doing pretty well keeping the vigilante nonsense in his life to a minimum.
Or he was until he moved next door to Tim Drake.

Shake the Devil Out of Me by thepartyresponsible
The first time Jason sees Phil Coulson, he sees him in the soft, flickering light of a warehouse fire. It’s romantic, he thinks, later. Like candlelight.
E | Graphic Depictions Of Violence | Phil Coulson/Jason Todd
The Dawn Will Break Before You by thepartyresponsible
“Okay, heartbreaker,” he says, “how much to put the tires back on the car?”
Jason rolls his eyes and gestures at him with the lug wrench. “Why don’t I just beat you up and steal your money? Is this the first time you’ve been to a bad part of town? Don’t show me your wallet, asshole. Come on.”
The man heaves a heavy, aggrieved sigh and starts pulling out bills. “Five hundred?” He tries. “Six? We can go to an ATM.”
“You are mugging yourself,” Jason says, oddly impressed. “Holy shit.”

birds fly (why can't I?) by SafelyCapricious
The apartment in Gotham that Natasha gets — all cash and no ID required — is a shithole.
But it’s her shithole.
Well, hers and the cockroaches’, she supposes, as she turns on the flickering light in the bathroom and at least a hundred of them scurry out of view.

Five Supersoldiers Walk Into a Bar by bittercape
He spots him through the binoculars, far away and disappearing fast. Logan is, more than anything, a hunter. He knows how to watch, and he watches the sniper moving away, after a single well-placed shot. He moves just like Barnes did. Everyone has a particular way of moving, if you know how to watch. And Logan, as mentioned, knows how to watch.
Logan knows it cannot be him, knows he died, falling from a train. No normal human could survive that. And yet …
He drops down from the watchtower. He’ll catch hell for this, sure. But he has to know.

“Good evening,” Jason says, because he does have manners when he wants to use them. “Talia al Ghul sent me for training.”

Summary: Written for the prompt "100 words of getting him pregnant", Fang has a hypothetical fantasy and Izzy indulges it.
Excerpt:
This one got me straight in the feelings. It isn't just about Fang and Izzy doing a little kink discovery together, but about Izzy having a significant moment of pushing past his reflexive practical resistance and worries to try being fanciful with someone. I love how the author works Izzy's experience during Calypso's Birthday into it and sweetly and naturally extends what it means for a space to be safe.

Excerpt:
“Well, I can’t,” Izzy said. It came out blustery somehow, indignant and spitty and riled-up, like he was months back, talking to a peacocking Spriggs. “Have Roach explain it to you, if you’ve gone this long without—”
“I know how it works, boss.” Fang patted his stomach. His hand fell to the side of Izzy’s at first and then, almost shyly, straight on it. “Got nowhere to put it. But if you could.”
If he could. If he could, he’d still be a one-legged pirate past his prime, sailing on a ship where the crew was already vulnerable and downy enough without adding an infant in the mix. He had enough to take care of already. He had a child, he’d wind up throwing himself in the fucking sea.

Author's Excerpt:
“I’ll be performing the procedure, Mr Rackham,” informs the nurse dourly. “Then the doctor will review the report I write.”
“Oh,” sighs Jack, almost laughing with relief. “Cool, yeah, sweet.”
“Due to the invasive nature of the procedure, we like to give our patients as much privacy as possible. In this case, that means one-on-one treatment.”
“Right,” says Jack. “I should probably know your name, then.”
Does the nurse flush at that? Maybe. He’s looking down at the chicken scratch he’s hastily etching across the paper on his clipboard. “Izzy, but you will address me as Nurse when speaking to me.”
“Yes, Nurse,” Jack says, fast and breathless. “Thank you.”

Author's Summary: Gene misinterprets Sam’s daddy issues in the most inappropriate way possible.
Excerpt:
This is a hot, twisty, and feelings-ful story in which Gene mistakes Sam's strange behaviour around Vic Tyler as daddy kink instead of time travel daddy issues and shows up at his flat drunk and emotionally compromised to prove that he can give Sam what he needs. This is the platonic of a character-driven PWP for me, where the smut is compelling and interesting to read on its own but also establishes something equally compelling about each character involved and moves them together from one place at the start of the story to somewhere else entirely by the end of it.

Seeing Gene properly for the first time since the start of this uneven conversation, Sam could recognize the effects of too much whisky in his stance, in the unrestrained flashing of his eyes. Yet even pissed, Gene had remarkable control, the gun in his hand held steady and sure, the muzzle lightly touching the hollow of his throat without the slightest tremor.
‘Not nice, is it, Sam?’ The barrel traveled slowly up his neck to his jaw, almost caressing in time to Gene’s languid speech. ‘Not nice when someone you trust points a gun at you…’
‘Gene…’
‘But do you trust me? Do you?’
This is a hot, twisty, and feelings-ful story in which Gene mistakes Sam's strange behaviour around Vic Tyler as daddy kink instead of time travel daddy issues and shows up at his flat drunk and emotionally compromised to prove that he can give Sam what he needs. This is the platonic of a character-driven PWP for me, where the smut is compelling and interesting to read on its own but also establishes something equally compelling about each character involved and moves them together from one place at the start of the story to somewhere else entirely by the end of it.

Rating: Explicit
My Tags: humour, pwp, romance, happy ending, getting together, established relationship, ______ with benefits, bonding, first time (ship), first time (gender), comfort sex, fisting/stretching, threesomes 2+1
Author's Summary: Eddie needs a gruck. Dulcie and Cath offer to help her out.
Author's Excerpt:
This is the exact scenario I finished Deadloch craving: Cath, in all her overenthusiastic commitment to what she thinks is a good idea, earnestly convincing more practical wife Dulcie that giving Dulcie's cop-partner Eddie the cathartic gruck (grief-fuck) she's craving is best for all of them moving forward. The story captures the dry, absurd humour of the show and also its heart. These are characters who don't always show their love in ways their loved ones find easiest to handle, but the love is there nonetheless. It's really sweet to see those bonds and that understanding come through via the intimacy of a recommitted couple having a threesome with the feral cat of a human being they seem to have adopted into their lives.

Author's Summary: Eddie needs a gruck. Dulcie and Cath offer to help her out.
Author's Excerpt:
"This is not a good idea, love," Dulcie says, keeping her tone level. "I know I said I’d try to be more open to change, and I hear and respect your opinion, I truly do, but this is—it’s like the hobby farm. It's really not going to work."
"I just think," Cath says, bright-eyed and earnest, "that it would be a healing experience for me. For us both! To share that kind of intimacy. I am committed to working through my anxiety about you fucking your partner and I'm sure that would be so much more manageable for me if we fucked her first. Together."

Length: 14,440 words
Rating: Teen
My Tags: drama, humour, happy ending, getting together, misunderstanding, touch, trauma, case/mission, fight/breakup, making up, first kiss (ship), first time (ship)
Author's Summary: In which Murdock is jumpy, BA is an idiot, Face is unhelpful, Hannibal is a troll, and there's an inevitable happy ending.
Excerpt:
This is my favourite kind of misunderstanding story, where no one's jumping to unreasonable conclusions or missing something obvious. They're just not at the right stage of their relationship yet for the truth to be evident, until the misunderstanding happens and gives them the opportunity to learn more about each other and get closer. This is a sweet fic where B.A. notices that Murdock flinches when he touches him, tries to fix the situation by being less gruff with him, and inadvertently makes things worse for a little while. It does a great job of balancing Murdock's more whimsical eccentricities with some elements of more grounded trauma, paints a lovely picture of who B.A. is as a person, and really makes the most of the ship's premise of two characters who communicate and show love in very different ways somehow really working together.

Author's Summary: In which Murdock is jumpy, BA is an idiot, Face is unhelpful, Hannibal is a troll, and there's an inevitable happy ending.
Excerpt:
"Are you dying?" Murdock demanded, blocking his way.
"What?" he asked, trying to figure out where Murdock got that from for a moment, before realizing that he'd be there all night if he kept at it. "No."
Murdock didn't look convinced. "Are you sick?"
He didn't say, "Yeah, sick of you, fool," which he thought showed remarkable restraint on his part. Instead, he repeated, "No."
"Are you a Skrull?" Murdock asked, peering at him suspiciously. "Because if you are, I want the real B.A. back. You can have Face, instead."
"I ain't a pod person, either," he growled, and was about to ask what the hell was wrong with him and what the hell was a Skrull, when a guy bumped past Murdock, and he flinched away. The irritation drained out of him, and was replaced with horror.
He'd broken Murdock.

2 x Nero Wolfe Fic

Medium: Fic
Length: 8020 words
Rating: Mature
My Tags: drama, crime/mystery, happy ending, getting together, developing relationship, au: prison, mentorship, h/c (emotional), first time (ship), arrangement to feelings, separation
Author's Summary: Usually, sooner or later, those who shoot others and make cute with the law end up in jail. In this world, that's exactly what happens to Archie and Wolfe.
Excerpt:
This fic takes the canon backstory of a young Archie Goodwin entering Nero Wolfe's employ after shooting two men while working as a security guard and imagines instead that he went to trial for the killings and subsequently became the cellmate of an already falsely imprisoned Wolfe. We then get a story set in my favourite missing-scene period of the pair's earliest days together, heightened by the danger and unavoidable added intimacy of getting to know each other in prison instead of in a New York City brownstone. It captures everything I enjoy about Archie's voice and the character dynamics of the source material, with an added twist, and it contains the shortest and most veiled single-paragraph sex scene to ever consistently make me swoon.
Even better, there's also a sequel that picks up after they're both pardoned.

Excerpt:
"No, Archie. I don't want to make you accessory to a felony--or is it a misdemeanor?"
"Nuts. I'd love to share a cell with you."
---Rex Stout, The Golden Spiders
Sure, I know why you want to hear all about it, Father. You're hoping for one of those "Oh, do not do as I have done" confessions, right? No?
Nice of you to care, but I never spent much time worrying about my immortal soul. Neither did he, as far as I could see, and I could see pretty far. But I'll tell you what I will do. You listen to what I have to say without piping up, you put it under that seal of the confessional that you priests value so much, and I promise I'll give you all the details and let you ask questions after. That's as far as I'll go, though I will add my word's been known to be good for years around here.
It's a deal? Let's go, then.

Author's Summary: The first week of freedom is supposed to be the critical one.
Excerpt:
His first words to the newly freed man were, "That suit is abysmal."
"I can do better, since someone spotted me twenty bucks. Maybe you could introduce me to your tailor?" The chalk-striped blue suit coat he was wearing was bold but businesslike, much like the way Nero Wolfe had moved in on a deal back in the pen.
As for the man himself, he grunted. "You may not wish to commit yourself until you have seen what the young men are wearing in Manhattan this year. Get in."
I did, next to him in back. Some guy I didn't recognize was driving. When I glanced at the back of our driver's neck, Wolfe told me, "Jack will be giving you lessons to refresh your knowledge of controlling these mechanical contrivances."
Of course he was going to start right out by deciding how everything would go, now that we were both free of Mannerheim. I made a note to discuss this with him as soon as there were no ears around that I didn't recognize. Right now, Wolfe was getting a break because of the ride, the twenty, and the fashion advice.
As with the first story, this one likewise captures canon's tension of what it means for Archie to be Wolfe's man, through the additional thematic lens of imprisonment, freedom, and choice.
1 x Penguin Diplomacy Fic

Ship: George Bunning/Søndergaard
Medium: Fic
Length: 2404 words
Rating: General
My Tags: romance, happy ending, getting together, script, proposals, domesticity, animals, science
Author's Summary: Stuck inside on a stormy night, Søndergaard and Bunning talk about divorce, love, loneliness, and what it takes to build a nest together. They’re talking about the penguins. Obviously.
Excerpt:
For those not familiar with it, Penguin Diplomacy is a half-hour radio play from 2017, set in the South Atlantic just after WWII. It involves a British government official both getting into an international incident with and befriending an eccentric Dane who has laid claim to a small island while studying the penguins there. This story nails the charm and comedy of the original as it picks up shortly post-canon with Bunning paying a social call to Søndergaard and his little lancelot penguins (all named for film stars of the day, including male couple Humphrey Bogart and John Wayne, who are raising a chick together) and seamlessly takes the original's romantic subtext into the realm of requited love. It's the sort of note-perfect "everything I wanted" sequel that I sometimes forget isn't official.

Excerpt:
BUNNING: And when they go out to sea, once they’re done nesting for the season...do they always stay in their pairs? Seems like that would be a rather crowded life for a penguin, never getting to go off on one’s own.
SØNDERGAARD: Oh, no, no, they’re very independent! Well, I can’t speak to any other sorts of penguins, but lancelot penguins allow one another a great deal of independence. For much of the year, they swim off to wherever they like. It’s only that they know there’s a mate they can return to, back on land, when it’s time to build a nest again. Someone to come home to, as it were.
BUNNING: (QUIETLY) What a striking thought.
