Summary
1918.The war is over, but for Flora Green, the battle never truly ended. A nurse hardened by the trenches of France, she returns to Small Heath with nightmares in her head and steady hands that never shake when stitching bullet wounds—no questions asked.
When a brawl at The Garrison puts her face-to-face with Thomas Shelby, Flora makes a decision that changes everything. One calm confrontation with Arthur Shelby later, she's caught the attention of the most dangerous family in Birmingham. Tommy's proposition is simple: three pounds weekly to be their personal nurse. It's enough money to eventually escape Small Heath forever, but the price isn't measured in currency alone.
As she moves between worlds—blending modern medicine with her mother's Romani remedies—Flora finds herself drawn into Tommy's orbit. But in a neighborhood where respectability matters and Tommy's women come with their own histories, Flora must decide how close to the fire she's willing to stand.
She tells herself it's just business. A means to an end. But when Tommy looks at her with those ice-blue eyes that see too much, or when his fingers brush against her cheek in the back room of The Garrison, even Flora's steady hands begin to tremble. -

Summary
Set against the backdrop of the Great Depression, World War II, and the turmoil of the modern age, this story follows the lives of Bucky Barnes and Effie Callahan, childhood friends from Red Hook, Brooklyn, who find love, heartbreak, and resilience in a world that changes faster than they can keep up.
From their early days sneaking out to dance halls and chasing dreams bigger than their working-class neighborhood, Bucky and Effie’s bond grows stronger through youthful mischief and whispered promises. But when the storm clouds of war loom, their lives take a drastic turn.
As the years go by, they learn that coming home isn’t about where you are—it’s about who you’re with. And no matter how far they’re scattered by fate, Brooklyn will always be their beginning.

Summary

But between electric encounters and moments of unexpected intimacy, neither can ignore the pull. They tell themselves it’s just fun, just temporary. But after the events of Iron Man, ‘no strings’ won’t be an option anymore.

Summary
When Brooklyn-raised surgical intern Clementine Hart arrives at Seattle Grace Hospital, she brings more than just her razor-sharp medical instincts and cutting humor. Daughter of an ER nurse and a fallen Army surgeon, Clem knows hospitals better than most first-years—but nothing prepares her for the high-stakes world of Seattle Grace, where careers and hearts hang in delicate balance.
As Clem forms unexpected bonds with the enigmatic Meredith Grey and her fellow interns, she finds herself drawn into the orbit of brilliant minds and even sharper egos. Between 48-hour shifts, roommate drama, and the constant pressure to prove herself, Clem discovers that in a hospital where the lines between personal and professional are razor-thin, connection can be as vital—and risky—as any diagnosis.
"Vital Signs" follows Clementine Hart's journey through the earliest days of Seattle Grace, exploring how ambition, attraction, and loyalty collide in the surgical crucible that transforms everyone who walks through its doors.

Summary
You’ve always known there’s more to Bob Reynolds than the sweet smiles and soft eyes.
Working late in the Watchtower, the line between friendship and something far more dangerous starts to blur- and when his control slips, you’re left facing the side of him no one talks about. The one that doesn’t ask. The one that takes.
Now you’re not sure what’s more terrifying: how much you liked it… or the fact that Bob doesn’t remember a thing.
Or
Void fucks you raw, leaves you ruined on a conference table- and Bob comes back, still buried inside you, with no idea what just happened.
-----UPDATED: NOW A SECOND PART-----

Summary
When you bump into a stranger at a charity gala, you don’t expect him to be awkward, soft-spoken, or devastatingly handsome. You definitely don’t expect him to be an Avenger- let alone the one no one talks about. But tonight, he’s not the Sentry. He’s just Bob. And somehow, that makes him even more dangerous.
Or
Bob isn’t used to his powers- ends up breaking the reader’s bed, wall, and maybe her uterus.
Also, he whimpers. Because of course he does.Series

marvel au - bucky x personal assistant!reader
personal assistant rules: don’t crush on bucky barnes. definitely don’t misinterpret a flower delivery and spiral into silent heartbreak, and absolutely never ever get stuck alone with him in an elevator.
—
His mouth was merciless. His grip was unrelenting on your thighs, mouth working you over like a man possessed—
Bzzzzt.
A shrill, sudden buzz sounded from the elevator’s emergency panel, followed by a crackling voice.
“Hello? This is Tower Maintenance. We’re registering an emergency stop on lift three. Is there an issue?”
You froze. Every muscle in your body went rigid, as if someone had cracked open your spine and poured ice water down it. Dread spread like frost through your veins. Your heart thudded painfully in your throat, threatening to climb up and out entirely.
You could barely breathe. Could barely think.
This was it. This was how you died—legs spread, Bucky between them, and Tower Maintenance on the fucking line.

“Yeah. Wait there’s a name for that?”
“Yeah, it’s a thing. There’s a TV show. And a documentary.”-
Bucky promises Sam he'll try to get out and meet more people. Online dating goes about as well as you'd expect.
