Summary
Later - much later - Anthony Bridgerton would look back at the moment he’d met Kate Sharma, and it would be clear that this was when his life had divided in two. There would always be, from that time onwards, before and after.
It was unfortunate, then, that he was also delusional enough to think he could purge his obsession.
—
or: Kate Sharma has just one objective for the Season: marry well enough to save her family. She’s determined to ignore her attraction for Lord Bridgerton, for everyone knows he has no plans to wed soon. Except, vexingly, he cannot seem to stay away from her.

Summary
"Agent Rogers. We have to stop meeting like this." The Winter Soldier crouched in front of where Steve was slumped against the wall, hands and forearms glued to the stone behind him by some kind of sticky polymer. "Comfortable?"
"No," Steve lied. "My blood circulation has been cut off. I've lost all feeling in my hands."
"Oh, so I should probably cut you loose," the Soldier deadpanned.
"It's a medical emergency. You don't want to be responsible for me losing limbs, do you?"
"Tell you what, if you lose your hands, I'll make you some new ones." He held up his metal hand, smallest finger crooked. “Pinkie promise.”
Secret Agent adversaries-to-lovers AU where the Winter Soldier keeps tying Captain America to walls and sticking around to chat. Shut up, Natasha, it’s not flirting, okay? (It’s definitely flirting.)

Summary
Jon’s eyes are fixed on the floor at her feet. To a stranger it might look like respect, the proper deference shown to a queen, but Sansa knows better. If he wished to look at her, he would.
He has not forgiven me, she thinks, her heart a stone in her chest. He likely never will.

He stalked towards her slowly as he spoke, “I saw you back there, bloody sword in hand, bodies all around you and hellfire in your eyes.” Just a breath away, his voice low, “Yet it took every ounce of my willpower not to fall to my knees for you.”

Summary
“I want my friends to have my body, Ben.”
It flashes across his mind: the flames, the pyre. Peace and purpose. Her friends standing at her side, heads bowed. She did not call him for help. She called to say goodbye.
“No,” he says, and keeps saying it, louder and louder. “No. No. NO.” He leans down to her ear. “This is not how this ends. Do you understand me? If you quit now, I will hunt down every single last one of them, and I will kill them. Personally. I’ll do it. You know I will.”
“Why are you crying?” she asks.
He wipes his face — his scar — with his gloved hand. “You know why.”
“Say it,” she whispers. Her hand squeezes his. “Say it.”
His mouth opens, and she vanishes. He’s alone, on his knees, forehead pressed into the floor. He screams and screams and screams.

“You’d have me shop the shelf rather than the dancefloor? Tell me, do you have someone in mind already? A spinster cousin? Has Lady Danbury tasked you with finding a match for a wallflower she has taken under her wing? How desperate is the girl?”

For the longest time, Sarah had been lucky. With the right friends, and charms, and keys, she'd slipped easily in and out of different realms. She'd forgotten what true danger was. She'd become complacent.
