Summary
Usually, when Death is involved, the earth shatters and apocalypses threaten mankind. Only worse things happen, bigger catastrophes — like when Death finds out that his beloved Cadillac's carburetor is ruined and his trusted mechanic has perished. A story about two lonely men, about classic cars and the hunt for the perfect 1959 62 Series spare part, involving Ebay, fast food and, as strange as it might sound, love and little brothers.

Summary
An Inception/His Dark Materials crossover which is otherwise canon-compliant. Thank you to finch for the beta.
It's a fairly straightforward job. Arthur is uncertain why he took it, other than to avoid ennui, but maybe that's reason enough. He didn't know Eames was on the job until Eames showed up the first day, to the warehouse in Toronto, and he had seen Mekhmet before he saw Eames, anyway.

Summary
"There are bees on my roof. Bees, Pep."
"I think you mean my roof, as the building belongs to Stark Industries, of which I am CEO."
"The important word in that sentence was bees."
(Or: the one in which Pepper accidentally introduces Bucky to gardening therapy.)

Bookmarker's Notes
PEPPER IS AMAZING AND ACCEPTING. BUCKY IS ADORABLE AND COMPETENT AND LEARNING TO SOCIALIZE. ONE HUNDRED ELEVENTY BILLION OUT OF TEN WOULD READ AGAIN.

Summary
As a child, Phil Coulson was vaccinated against whooping cough. In one version of the story, the vaccination held and he went on to become Agent Coulson, SHIELD bad-ass and Avengers liaison. In another, though, he was one of the few the vaccine doesn't protect and he nearly died when he was ten, suffering permanent lung damage and recurrent asthma. This is the story of what happened after that.
