    Summary

    Jesper says it must be blackmail. Maybe murder. There’s no other way Kaz Brekker could already be holding a full professorship at the University of Ketterdam, no matter how many books he’s written. Inej, trapped by an adjunct’s contract which is the only thing standing between her and deportation, is willing to risk the obvious dangers of his company in exchange for the advantages, professional and otherwise. But when the department’s budget comes up suspiciously short, Inej’s job is on the line, and Kaz isn’t ready to let her go without a fight.

    Summary

    When the trial was over, and Steve told him that he'd been awarded the largest pay-out to a single defendant in history, and that Jen said he would probably end up with almost seven billion dollars, and that the jury had originally wanted to give him $150 billion— as a statement that what had happened to him should never happen again to anybody— and that everyone was calling it a decisive statement about human rights and a victory for all victims of Hydra, and that Bucky was a hero now, and that he would always be a hero, and that he was free, that this money was his to enjoy, and that he could make up all the lost years now, that should do whatever he wanted, anything at all—

    Bucky looked at him for a while in inscrutable silence.

    "Does that mean—" He paused, as though engaged in a profound inner struggle. He frowned. Steve waited patiently. Bucky took a deep breath and let it out. "Does that mean I can buy my own donut factory if I want?"

    That should have been when Steve started to have misgivings.

    Summary

    This is a terrible idea.

    The medical tent is full of men, littered with the wounded that just rolled up, following men busy bellowing Captain America! over and over. You had seen him then, making eyes at you even though he'd been ragged as a stray dog, bleeding in ripped clothes. It isn't the first time a soldier has looked at you like a little bit of home he wants to touch, and you know it won't be the last. He'd smiled and nodded politely, but the slick curve of his mouth let you know just what kind of man you'd be dealing with later.

    And true to form, when you pluck the dog tags off his chest to match the name to the one you've scribbled on his chart, he runs a finger delicately over your hand and says, The name's Bucky.

    Summary

    All Hardison wants to do is spy on his extremely private, kinda weird, distractingly attractive neighbors.

    All Parker wants to do is get a decent night's sleep in a nice box, away from living people.

    All Eliot wants to do is dispose of a corpse in the most efficient and least incriminating way possible.

    Is that too much to ask?

    Summary

    Bucky’s crying before he’s off the boat and he’s the least surprised out of anyone to realize it.

    He’s always been a softie, a leaky faucet, and the war hasn’t changed that, so he doesn’t know why the sob that smacks him startles him bad enough that he grips the strap of his bag doubly hard, ready to swing it around like a battering ram, ready to find that cloying, invisible enemy. He’s not being ambushed, on his belly in the muck and camellias, cypress hanging low, moonlight casting an eerie smile upon Lake Como like it’s enjoying the hell out of muffled gunshots and the wet grunt of lifeblood spattering onto the undergrowth. He’s not trucking through a river that sucks at his boots like quicksand kisses, gun raised and one eye squinted shut to peek through the scope. He’s not under the street in Liverpool clutching his own hand to hide the shake, catching Peggy’s eye across the deep dank dark like she’d have anything solid to give him besides that wan shrug.

    That’s done. He’s safe.

    He’s just a weenie.

    Summary

    "How long have we known each other?" Her voice felt rusty.

    Raoul was sprawled next to her on the bed. He blinked at the ceiling and cracked his neck. "Twenty years?"

    "Twenty years," Buri sighed. She felt like steam was rising off both of them. "We could have been doing this for twenty years."

    Sometimes it takes a while to go from friends to lovers. But it helps if you can read each other's minds.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    So... my feelings. I have been hit right in them. It's just so lovely to see two people growing up alongside and with each other, and watching their friendship grow and develop. The deep base of trust and mutual respect! The intense understanding! Only quote-unquote getting their shit together well into adulthood! Ugh, magnificent.
