Steve and Carol are good friends, and then they're something more. Adorable transition from friends to friends with makeouts.

Hot and heartbreaking, as Bucky and Peggy try to come to terms with their places in Steve's life (and bed).

AU where Bucky is an Iraq war vet who becomes a mechanic and falls in love with Steve after he fixes his classic car.

Tender, hot Steve/Darcy morning sex.

Silly little white girl, thinking all her training and all her skills would be enough to get her a seat at the grownups' table. Aisha loved proving her wrong, back in Sarajevo. She loved proving her wrong with her forearm against Red's throat, Red's gun under Aisha's chin and her thighs clamped so tight around Aisha's waist Aisha thought she might actually have to kill her to get away. She didn't. She's glad. This way, they get to do it again. Sharp, hot Aisha/Natasha.

Bucky reaches out to Steve and comes in from the cold.

Really hot WWII era comicsverse Steve/Bucky.

Jason fucks like it’s the last thing he’ll ever do. He fucks like he has to, like he means it, every time. (And Dick doesn’t, he can’t think about what that means.) He fucks like sex is a battle he has to win and he likes it best when Dick gives him a fight. Dick likes giving him one. He likes never knowing where he’s going to end up, on top or bottom or some undefined in between. Life moves fast and he’s always moved faster, but Jason moves faster than anything he knows. He’s amazed by it and more than a little in love with it. (Him.) Sharp, heartbreaking Dick/Jason.

In which Bucky is a stripper and hotness ensues.

Gretel considers what she's learned right after the end of the movie.

All he wants these days--apart from decent food and dry clothes and a sense of safety--is to hear Steve say he has plans for when they win this. In their bedrolls at night, they pull out their dreams and their hopes, worry-stones worn smooth and familiar over the months behind enemy lines, polish them up, release them into the air. Farms and bars and canyons spoken aloud; duty and friendship and desperate longing held back. And every time, Steve stays silent. Bucky, pining. *dreamy sigh*

Steve's having a rough day. Bucky brings home a dog. ADORABLENESS ENSUES.

Lydia hasn't been saving the world from supernatural evil for very long, but she’s already figured certain things out. Like that they’d all be better off if they just shared information more effectively. Or that it’s just not a fight until someone gets lit on fire. And, most recently, that it’s a terrible idea to ever accept glasses of lemonade from the nice little old lady that, until two minutes ago, everyone thought was helping them track down the big, badass sorcerer that’s been lighting shit on fire all over the county for the last three months. In which Lydia saves the day in her own inimitable way.

Bucky gets in between Dick and Jason. It's a helluva time.

AU where Steve is an artist and Bucky is a writer and together they make comics.

Steve felt more frozen than he ever had under layers of Arctic ice, breath halting, heart stopping, because—no. No. He'd lost this. He'd never gotten to really have this, and there was a noise in his head, a dreadful roaring sound like the wind rushing in through a plane's shattered windows as the ground rushed up to meet him. But then he breathed in again and walked slowly, deliberately down the stairs, clinging to the bannister the whole way with one trembling hand; then he turned left and into the yellow-painted kitchen, where Peggy was standing and poking at a pot of what smelled like over-cooked oatmeal with a dubious expression on her face. Steve keeps waking up in the wrong place. Oh, Steve.

awesome vid of awesome ladies playing baseball.

wow. just. wow.

Clint helps Natasha dye her hair. Hotness ensues.

50s boarding school AU where Steve is an art history teacher and Bucky is his irresistible student. Lovely and melancholy, with a happy ending where I was braced for tragedy.

Steve and Bucky have their first dance at the inauguration. Lovely.

Bittersweet Steve/Bucky space AU.

Enjoyable Clint/Natasha spyjinks.

In the twenty-first century, Steve Rogers still has inordinate difficult talking to women, or men, or anyone with a pretty face. Tony Stark suggests that he try calling a phone sex line. Under the influence of severe exhaustion, he does just that. He has no explanation for why he keeps calling, though. and of course, the operator he talks to is BUCKY.

3 men who would be king and the temptations and obstacles in their paths. Perfect song choice.

Gorgeous and heartbreaking. OH JASON. if this were tumblr, I would tag this #ALL BRUCE'S JASON FEELS #ALL OF THEM #GROSS SOBBING

Awesome Wonder Woman vid

The Millennium Falcon + Greased Lightning = PERFECTION
