Summary
“To be honest, Miss Lewis, you don’t scare me much,” he snapped in his Captain’s tone. After the words were out, and her cheeks had paled and his had surely flushed, he realized those were his first words to her. They were on her skin.
And they were such a lie.

Summary
Finduilas’ eyes drifted closed as she kissed again. The woman gasped as she felt the tip of the elf’s tongue dart against her skin.
Excerpt:
Before nightfall, the rebellion began. Noldorin hearts were not easily defeated. The prisoner camps were in chaos. Finduilas was one of the first freed and with a previously plundered Elven dagger; she cut the ropes of as many captives as she could. Regrettably, she could not free them all. Any who escaped that night ran wild in the woods. She was one of the unlucky ones who had been recaptured.She witnessed others rounded up, chained together, and led away. She feared they would be taken to Angband, as Gwindor had been, but could do nothing to stop it. Why have I been spared the chain? Should I not at least share the fate of my people? She had no idea why she had been held back from enslavement. She was too scared and weary to do more than watch and weep. But, the anger and shame of being unable to act burned into her.

Summary
There are two types of love in this world that are reflective of stars. Those that start off bright, flare up incredibly hot, and then fizzle as fast as they started. Then there are those types of love that start off slow, nearly a glimmer, just a hope but they burn long and grow strong.
This... this was something else entirely. What was happening with her and Steve was something that was going to take an entire lifetime to figure out. It was blinding and would burn in her until she was gone, of this she was sure.

Summary
Stories will later tell, I suppose, that the Dragon stole me away;
Caught me from my horse at hunt,
Plucked me from a royal parade,
Or ravaged the land until I was surrendered up to him;
A canapé in coronet; a royal nonpareil;
A pretty, sticky toffee in satin slippers to bait the quest for a better class of Jack
Than will come to slay a marauder of livestock alone.Series

Summary
As the sins of the father bring dragon's fire to the capital of the Sun Flame Kingdom, Princess Fuyumi Todoroki is the only royal who stands to watch the destruction, the more valuable princes and king safely tucked away in the dragon-proofed treasury.
When King Endeavor refuses to meet Ryuko on the field of battle, she does the next best thing: She steals his daughter and returns to the once-proud cavern where Enji slew her mother all those years ago. No man who would see himself crowned Emperor can allow such a transgression to stand. High Dragon Ryuko is counting on it.
As Fuyumi adjusts to her new life during the long wait for her rescue, she begins to realize...maybe the true captivity was her time at the palace, and the secrets and sacrifices made in the name of her father, the King. As weeks turn to months, new alliances are born, and when Fuyumi steps out of the shadows, it is not as a princess, but as a queen.
And this queen has a score to settle.

Summary
“Esquire,” Darcy Lewis, intern to Doctor Jane Foster, assistant to Pepper Potts, and all around good gal adds.
“Esquire,” the man named Steve Rogers concedes with a nod and a grin. The Winter Soldier doesn’t think ‘esquire’ is actually part of her title. Bucky Barnes adds it on in their head anyway.

Bookmarker's Notes
Extremely hilarious. Definitely worth revisiting frequently. FREQUENTLY.
Excerpt:
He, Steve, Natasha, and Sam are busy battling the villain-of-the-days weird giant-sentient-caterpillars-that-spit-acid when Iron Man comes flying in from the east. Everybody stops. The avengers stop, the villain stops, the caterpillars stop, and the civilians stop running for their lives. Nobody says anything and then—
“That’s a nice look, Tony,” Natasha says and that’s it. No one can take it. Everyone is laughing. Even the caterpillars are making some weird chortling noise which is frankly a bit disturbing.
Iron Man’s suit is bubble-gum pink, covered in glitter, and has a Hello Kitty utility belt and bow.
Later, after the fighting picks up again, they find out that every time he shoots his repulsion beams at the baddies, his suit makes meowing noises. The Captain would tell Tony to sit this one out because he’s being too much of a distraction but he can’t seem to get the words out in between peals of laughter so Tony and his meowing suit stay.And also I love the concept of this D.I.D.-ish version of Bucky/The Winter Soldier.

(Or: In Which Darcy Sows Chaos And Pulls Out Her Knitting)
“Ooh, you’ve got a vein-thingy on your temple. I didn’t know that could happen in real life. You should probably see a doctor or something.”
Captain Eyepatch actually growled!
“Chill out, dude. To answer your questions, I’m Darcy Lewis, Scientist Wrangler extraordinaire. I’m in your office because I was looking for wayward scientists, and I was knitting because you were busy yelling at each other.” She paused thoughtfully, then added, “Also, I find it amusing to knit at somewhat inappropriate times.”

Bookmarker's Notes
It's so beautiful, with just the most healing, life-affirming, tender finale. I especially love this concept about what you do when your feelings are hurt, and you know it's something you need to get over, but you just can't; it just hurts too much to release the pain that holds you tight in its grip. That's not to say that this is angsty! Quite the contrary! It's a story about the soothing potential of healing, not about miserable, dragged-out hurting. I just keep coming back to how tender this is. Simply lovely.

Worst Summer Vacation by mysterycyclone

Summary
The last thing he remembers is leaving school. It was a half day, as he’d finished his exams early, texted May about staying over at Ned’s place, sent another text to MJ and then a twitch of his spider senses--
Then a pinch at his neck, like a bee sting, but deeper. Darkness. Then here.
Huh. Kidnapped. That’s new. If he was less emotionally dead from finals and sleep deprivation, he’d probably have a stronger and much more appropriate reaction to that.
At least he's got Captain America and the Winter Soldier to keep him company.

Summary
The top story on Buzzfeed on February 16, 2017, is “Everything We Know About Peter Parker, Who May or May Not Actually Be Peter Stark.” Turns out Tony Stark might have been hiding the fact that he has a kid all these years. We’re just as shocked as you are, the subheadline reads.
It should be an easy rumor to dispel, seeing as it’s not true. But, it turns out, nothing is ever quite that simple when dealing with a celebrity scandal.

In which Tony is Very Famous™️ and that bleeds over into fans paying attention to the people around him as well. Which includes Peter, now. And would be fine, if they would all just stop assuming that Tony is his dad.
