Summary
She's pouting, all petulant like a child, and Jesus Christ, sometimes Six looks at Claire in all of her eleven-year-old-glory, and he can't help but think back to when he was her age; already beaten down and broken in by more than his father's fists and the U.S. prison system. And then, Six thinks about how he can keep her away from all of that. How he'd go to the ends of the earth just to make sure that she never, ever, has to know that kind of hurt or violence.
His fists tighten just thinkin' about it. Six takes a deep breath. Sweat beads down his face and no amount of fiddling with the fan is gonna make the air turn cold.
"Alright," He says, capturing her attention. "Let's go get ice cream."

Summary
Clark Kent is handsome in that unassuming, boy-next-door kind of way. Clean-cut and wholesome. Almost impossibly sincere. His skin carries the sun in it. And that golden warmth is hard to come by in Gotham, where the skies are always gray, where safety often means staying inside, and where crooked electric companies syphon energy away from those that need it the most.
He is polite to a fault. Kind-hearted without calculation. Sweet in a way that’s entirely, almost disarmingly, genuine.
He wouldn’t last a day in Gotham.
Or,
Bruce Wayne meets Clark Kent. -

Summary
In a bored manner, King Ganondorf asks, “The princess’s favorite flower, what is it?” And he does not look at Link while he asks this, nor does he bother to address Link by name.
Instead, he stares at the backs of his nails, idly pondering the blunt tips of them and their cerulean polish.
It takes a moment for Link to even understand that the question is being directed at him.
The women of the Gerudo court snicker and smirk behind Link’s back. He quickly fumbles with his hands for an answer and he is nearly halfway done with signing the words for ‘Silent’ and ‘Princess,’ when the King sharply barks,
“Do I have to ask again?”
Link’s hands still.
Or, Zelda is set to marry Ganondorf by the end of the year. In the meantime, Link is to stay in the Gerudo Kingdom on her behalf.

Summary
Valentina sighed heavily as she inspected the front page of The New Yorker, a stylized watercolor of the so-called “New Avengers”: Bucky Barnes, Yelena Belova, Red Guardian, Ava Starr, Sentry and—Antonia Dreykov. Center frame. Mask-free, her scarred skin bared to the world.
"I gotta say," Valentina muttered, flicking the corner of the magazine with distaste, "I am not a fan of you adding on new team members who have tried to kill me."
"To be fair," Walker said over the zoom call, not bothering to hide the fact that he was clearly texting on his phone. "You tried to kill all of us first."
Valentina tilted her head. “Touché.” She tossed the magazine onto the counter with a sharp thud. “Just don’t make it a habit."

Summary
Hank Anderson has dog hair on his jacket.
A cloud of fur and dust floats in the air each and every time that he moves and Connor marvels at it. At him.

Or,
Connor is a little bit obsessed with Hank but none of that matters when it comes to his mission.

Summary
"Uh, fellas," Valentina laughs that humorless chuckle of hers. "What the hell is this?" She pointedly looks Bob up and down, her eyes narrowing before landing on the kid. "I thought we agreed, no public appearances for Sentry-"
"I'm not here as Sentry," Bob says with a frown.
"He's here as my babysitter," Walker grunts, stepping between them, dressed in a blue suit with a red bowtie, really upping the wholesome American look. He may not have Sam Wilson's shield, or Steve Rodgers' decorum, but he had that timeless, hero look, and he'd be an idiot not to capitalize on it.
"And who said you could bring a baby to a fucking Government ball?" She snapped.

Summary
Memories, years. Gone in the blink of an eye. Natasha was taller than he remembered her being. She was no longer skinny and knob-kneed with childhood. That thin, wiry, girl with the blue hair, was gone. Replaced with something sharper. Grown. Tempered. Her hair a violent blaze of red, her eyes were steel. Unforgiving and bullet-hard.
She was not his daughter.
He was not her father.
Or, Walker misses his son's birthday party. Alexei introspects on his last mission with Natasha.

Summary
"Many a prison wife, sat happily on my cock," Alexei boasted proudly. "Perhaps, you will feel better if you do the same."
"Jesus Christ!" Barked John, scrambling to stand, creating space between them. "Are you comin' on to me, man?"
Alexei wheezed a laugh. "Look at your face! My God, you'd think I'd grown a third head!"
"Third?"
"It is merely an offer of comfort between comrades. Wars in Russian are cold and long, we soldiers must find comfort when we can, no?"
John's jaw dropped. "I- this isn't Russia, Alexei and it's not Prison either! I could get you kicked off of the Thunderbolts for this!" He was pretty sure HR already had a file on Alexei, on account of him berating the kitchen staff for not knowing how to make a good Borscht.
Alexei grimaced. "Eh, did I come on too strongly?"
"Like a freight train."

Summary
"Come on now, girl." Smoke pants, sweat glistening like stars on his skin. August summer. Bleeding heat. The magic that comes from two bodies feeding on each other, sustaining one another. It fills Annie up, fills her good. "I know you know how to get me off," Smoke continues, head lolling loose, kiss-drunk and smoldering. "Stop playin'."

Summary
It's years later when Sammie sees him again. Segregation has been lifted, but the black bars on this side of town are still better than the ones that cater to the whites in the City. Easy drink, easy folk, easy prices. Sammie comes on Saturday nights just to listen to the band play, his fingers itching against the bar top, playing an invisible tune. He always comes back home before midnight, ready and dressed for Mass by seven.
If his father smells the alcohol on his prayers, he doesn’t make it known.

Summary
“To be Jedi,” The guy beside Frank says, glasses glinting dark as blood in the low light of the tavern. “One must give up any and all forms of attachment.”
“That’s stupid,” Frank huffs, already on his second glass of Corellian Ale, waiting to overhear any useful intel from its many drunk and disorderly patrons. He can't remember when this guy sat down beside him, or for how long they've been talking. Maybe this planet's Ale is stronger than he initially thought. “S’fuckin’ dumb.”
