Vex Verlain's Fic Recs
Fic recommendations by Vex Verlain. Please see the collection's Profile page for more information and to browse by ship.
Wondering why your story is recommended here but I haven't left a comment? Chances are, I just wasn't in the right headspace. I used to make it a point of commenting on every single story I read, but now I generally can't manage to comment on anything (even if it's the best thing I've ever read). Plus, I tend to read on my phone, which means I can't track quotes/thoughts/etc.

“This is crazy,” says Steve, not mincing words. They were speaking of leaping through time to bring Loki back, in a wild attempt to win the war. “This plan is crazy.”
“Perhaps ‘crazy’,” Thor growls, “is the very thing we need.”
