Summary
He knows something is missing, but what is always the question. Perhaps even who. All he's got left are a few paltry words and Nick Fury's word. Even Phil Coulson without his memories knows that's only worth so much. And now Captain America has dumped the SHIELD servers into the internet. With the lives of too many agents in the balance Phil Coulson reaches out to the one man who can solve all his problems, if only he can remember.

Summary
"Nine years of his life had been sacrificed on the altar of saving Riley’s memory by saving those who made it home. Nine years of sleepless nights, of crappy shifts at a telecommerce conglomerate, and the hassle of scheduling his course work around working forty hours a week. Nine years just to miss the signs of mental deterioration in the people he worked and lived alongside."

Summary
Bucky knows but doesn't think. Tony thinks but doesn't know. Somehow, after everything, they have to meet in the middle before Hydra takes down the Avengers and picks up where Project Insight failed.
They're the Rats. And like the vermin their named for are the volunteers not strong enough to be Soldiers who didn't die. They come in the dead of night. As a security measure against disobedience. Dancing to a tune only the Master controls.

Summary
Jason Todd is not stupid; he can tell when someone is manipulating him. And when that someone is Talia al Ghul trying to turn him against the newest Robin... well, that's not happening.
Rated T for Jason's mouth.

Summary
Tim Drake leads a...mostly normal life, helping people get the best insurance they can afford. Soon though, he finds himself embroiled in a plot that involves Robin trying to take him down, and Batgirl possibly helping. Add to the mix Red Hood using him for information, and a strange young man walking into his office under false pretenses, Tim finds that his mostly normal life is about to completely change.
Tim knew there were worse jobs in Gotham than insurance agent, but he’s hard pressed to think of another at the moment. As he shoots off an email to a client about looking into their claim asap, he hears the glass door to the small insurance office open and watches Stephanie Brown,the goddamn Batgirl, walk into the agency and catch his eye. He puts 'masked vigilante' at the top of the list.

Summary
I can't figure out why I didn't post this, but I hadn't. This is not canon-compliant in the least, and assumes that at the end of the first POTC movie that Will and Elizabeth do not end up married.
