    Summary

    Everyone has a soulmark, the first words that their soulmate will ever say to them permanently printed on their skin. It's a foolproof system as long as everyone, you know ... talks.

    If one of you is a morning person, and the other can't form a sentence until they've had at least three cups of coffee? That might be a problem.

    Possibly THE best soulmate first-sentence meeting EVER. Also, this is eminently re-readable. And the usage of the song "Bang Bang" is so visually striking, that scene has stuck with me for literal, actual Years, and introduced my stubborn heart to a new genre of music..

    Loved this. I'm particularly a fan of all of the outsider POVs, as others observe the relationship between Tony and Peter.

    Tony Stark never meant to become anything to Peter Parker.
    Peter Parker never meant to need him.
    Somehow, it happened anyway.

    Really sweet, romantic, fun, angst-free tale. I love it.

    Summary

    The Winter Soldier doesn't know why he pulled that man from the river, but he doesn't really have time to give it much thought because he's surrounded by law enforcement and HYDRA, both of which want him dead or captured. His best bet to escape D.C. is the woman talking on the phone at the far end of an office parking lot a few miles from the helicarrier crash sight. Darcy Lewis did not plan on getting carjacked after a long day at her soul-crushing new job, and she definitely didn't plan on the guy doing it being this mentally unstable and hot as hell.

    This fic picks up where Captain America: the Winter Soldier left off and continues into the beginning of Civil War. I wanted to explore how the Winter Soldier and Darcy would interact, explore how Bucky finds himself again after he escapes HYDRA control, and explore an alternate universe in which Darcy changes the course of events in Civil War.
