    Summary

    There’s still enough of us up here that we have to stand close; our dresses overlap in a line of uninterrupted white against the tired pale brown wood of the stage. The symbolism of it, the line of feminine white on the right and the tall black Angel uniforms on the left, must look very nice in the framed shot I’m sure the cameraman is getting. Hidden behind the folds of our skirts, Verity’s fingers find mine. I clasp them tight in an overlapping hold. I try not to look at the black edging the corner of my vision.

    What is it like, finding yourself and your love in a country determined to erase them both?

    It was difficult to come up with a place Lucy felt safe and calm in, but he knew exorcisms were on the exact opposite end, so he told Arthur so. They worked backwards from there.

    Summary

    Killing a monster did not make him a hero. It just made him too strong to let stand.

    Summary

    They've been making time for years now, on and off, and Bucky is dizzy over Steve. But he's sure Steve is too honest to live a lie; soon enough, he'll find a girl smart enough to see his value. So Bucky keeps up appearances for them both. Still, every time he takes out a dame, it takes forever to get back into Steve’s good graces (and pants) again. It’s that damn contrary pride of his. Bucky loves him for it.

    They're on the outs on the day he walks in the front door early to find Steve with his face made up like a pinup girl, and his brain dribbles out his ears.

    Or:
    Steve: -puts on makeup-
    Bucky: "Whatta Man, Whatta Man, Whatta Man, What a Mighty Good Man"

    Summary

    Steve Rogers bought a beautiful old fixer-upper from its oddly hasty owners, eager to make it his new home, only to discover it came with a feral cat and an angry ghost who wanted him gone. But Steve had never met a challenge he didn't like, and he wasn't going anywhere.
    Bucky Barnes, the only domovoi in New York, could not believe those idiot kids sold their ancestral home and left him useless in its hearth. Now he had some tiny asshole invading it and tearing it apart—but even weakened, he had a few tricks that would surely scare any human off. Any human, that was, except Steve.
    ~
    A story of the magic in the restoration of heart(h) and home, a very grumpy and very adorable Bucky, and the tiny stubborn man he couldn't help but fall in love with.

    Summary

    Steve meets Bucky while canvassing for racial justice. Later that night, he sends him a dick pic (on accident! He swears!). He is the worst volunteer ever and he is totally getting fired for this.

    ---------------------------

    "I am not drunk," Steve said. "I’m like, respectably tipsy. Like an adult after a hard day of social justice work. I’m an…adult.”

    Steve looked down at himself. He was wearing She-Ra slippers and the sweatpants that had a small hole in the crotch. He was holding a Shirley Temple with two shots of vodka in it, and a phone that still plainly displayed the artistically shot nude he always sent to signal a booty call with whoever he had sex with last. An artistically shot nude that he had sent, instead, to the one hot guy on his whole canvassing list that had invited him in and given him a glass of water and asked him intelligent questions while he’d signed the petition.

    Fuck.

    Summary

    "Merrill wrapped her coziest blanket around her shoulders, clutching it at her collarbone, a bit like a cape. She always felt a little more heroic walking about with her cape swooping through the air behind her. And it was warm! Capes solved so many problems."

    Merrill is cute and has to pee, and Isabela has sex in inconvenient places.

    Summary

    You don’t love Bucky like he’s the air you need most in your lungs—you know that for sure. You remember how it felt to need to breathe so damn bad you’re dying with it, and to have that air literally all around you, and to know that you couldn’t have it, just because your stupid body was in the way. That kind of longing—you know that’s not love.

    Summary

    Derek looks at Stiles sideways, like if he can just turn him a certain way, he'll stop making so much sense.

    Stiles does NOT have a Bad Boy Fetish, okay. It's just that thing Derek does, with his face, and the leather, and his stupid little smirk and the dead relative thing. He's the most ridiculous person Stiles has ever met. It's really hard to look away.

    Summary

    Ginevra Molly Weasley is not in love with Harry James Potter. She swears. REALLY. It's just rather difficult to remember when the blackboard looks like Harry's hair and the verdant green of the rolling grounds is just a little too familiar for comfort.

    Second in the 'Fresh Pickled' oneshot series! The format is like Bridget Jones' Diary and The Murder of Bindy MacKenzie had a love child named Stella.

    Summary

    In which Darcy has a tacky dreamscape, Loki questions ethics, and Darcy is NOT QUALIFIED.
    She has the freaking God of Mischief in her brain-space, and shouldn't gods be better at interior decorating? Darcy wouldn't know. All Darcy knows is that Loki is dangerous and she will never eat shady Chinese take-out again.
    And that she maybe doesn't hate Loki featuring in her dreams as much as she really should.
