Summary
“You love her a lot.” Steve says it like it’s simple, and sometimes, Natasha doesn’t know why it can’t be. She does love Yelena – she loves Yelena ferociously. Her sparkplug little sister, irreverent and fearless, who has never given even half a shit about what anyone thinks of her. When she was four, she fell running on a gravel road and scraped her knees to bloody ribbons – and when she saw how badly she’d hurt herself, muttered “Gross,” and jumped back up to keep playing. When she was six and a teacher corrected her that having different daddies meant Natasha was only her half-sister, Yelena bit her on the arm and refused to apologize.
The thing that burns Natasha most is that she remembers a time when her family was happy – or at least, when things were easier.
[AU. Natasha's a hotshot Hollywood producer with a truckload of childhood issues. When their father gets out of prison, Yelena asks her to come spend Christmas with the family for the first time in a decade. She drags Steve Rogers, who she's casually banging, along to be her buffer. The author desperately wanted Steve to interact with the Russian Chaos Family and canon has broken her heart too much, so this happened instead.]

Summary
They never should have fallen in love; Natasha had known from the beginning what a bad match they were. He’s too earnest by half, always willing to get his hands dirty but never relishing the prospect, and when he and Tony first started working together – well, Steve has a wild streak in him, a need to prove something, plus a love for the craft, but it was also because he had needed the money too badly to let his better angels shout down his demons. His mother was sick, his student loans were paralyzing, and by the time his mother had died and he could buy a Brooklyn brownstone with cash, loyalty had set in. He was always there to be sure that if they skirted legality, they never ruined anyone’s life and they never left a trace.
Natasha does this because she likes it and she’s good at it. For her, it’s never been complicated.
[An Inception AU.]

Summary
There are about seventeen different platforms available for video calls, but since no one could agree on which was the best, Okoye went full-general and finally made a declaration: all group calls will be done via Google meets, everyone will use a computer and stay seated for the duration of the conversation, and no one will snack on anything crunchy or slurpy. “No more multitasking,” she ordered. “We’re gonna focus and be present for each other.”
Months later, when they’ve been having these calls for far longer than anyone expected, Natasha’s sort of glad they put a formal structure in place. Anytime she’s had spurts of annoyance, she’s self-aware enough to know that the root cause is she’s sick of video calls, period – they’re weirdly draining, in a way she never would have expected. But it’s also the only time she gets to see anyone besides Clint, James, and randoms when it’s her turn to hit the grocery store; it’s this or nothing. She misses her friends.
[A one-shot in the runaways are running the nightverse: Natasha, Nakia, Okoye, Jessica Jones, and Valkyrie are an all-girl rock band; Natasha, Clint, and Bucky are in a relationship, and now everyone's in quarantine, making the best of it.]

Summary
The need inside him is obliterating. It’s a black hole that is crushing the rest of his life up against the edges, squeezing them into whatever small spaces it hasn’t already eaten. He’s never felt desperation like this in his life; he knows he’s called out - that he’s been calling out. And he knows he damn well should be afraid of the thing that was finally intrigued enough to come answer.
He opens his eyes, and there is a woman standing at the edge of the cliff. Standing in the spot where Natasha saved his life and killed something vital inside him in the same movement.
The woman is not Natasha.
Or: Clint Barton makes a deal.
[Post Endgame.]

Summary
Six years after the final battle with Thanos, Natasha wakes up in a cabin in the Pacific Northwest. She wakes up with a wedding ring. She wakes up with Clint also wearing one. She wakes up with their four year old son.
She wakes up without any memory of how she acquired a single one of these things.
[A different take on Endgame. No real spoilers.]

Summary
Troy is so rich he doesn’t even know how rich he actually is, because his wealth fluctuates from day to day, which he didn’t even know was a thing unless you had all your bills set to autopay or something. He’s so rich he can get the extra bacon on sandwiches until he dies.

Summary
Eddie’s never really thought of the back of his van as a particularly great place.
He hasn’t vacuumed it out in…ever. And his friends have definitely spilled their fair share of beer back here. It smells a little bit like stale cigarettes and there’s at least a dozen guitar picks lost forever in the seats and the carpet.
But with Chrissy Cunningham writhing beneath him, his mouth on her throat, he’s gotta say he can’t think of any place closer to heaven.
Pretty nice for a guy who’s been told he’s going to hell.
Summertime, 1986
