The Avengers

But Not Worth Writing Down by Frances
Summary: Of lessons in humanity, the wisdom of drunkards, the people that keep you whole and finally having that chat with your partner. Sort of. “So what?” Stark spoke not out of callousness but a respect earned under impossible conditions. “She’ll escape in, what, twenty minutes? We just need to remember to bring enough body bags when we go pick her up.”

Pairings: Clint/Natasha, minor Tony/Pepper and Thor/Jane

bullets catch in her teeth by haipollai
Summary: The Red Room does not need to step in this time, she makes herself forget about them. All of them. Life becomes easier with no connections and no trust. After that she tells no one about any of her secrets, instead she holds them against her chest and treats them as treasure. They're buried deep under everything. Under knowledge of how to disable a man twice her size and how to clean and handle standard issue guns as well as some non-standard ones. She buries them deep but there is no such thing as deep enough. Red stains everything in the end and fire seeks out fuel.

Through the Glass by dentalfloss
Summary: “Thoughts Coulson?” Fury asked, finger tapping idly on Barton’s file. “He’s dangerous. He has trust issues that we may not be able to breach, he will not like working with others, he will lie to us about his motivations every chance he gets and, most likely, be successful every time.” Coulson’s gaze drifted back to the empty chair Barton had chosen earlier, boxed in the corner yet protected on as many sides as possible. “It won’t be easy, but if we can win his loyalty he has the potential to be the asset we’re looking for.” Fury agreed, though neither of them would ever dream that they already had Barton’s loyalty, or that the price it cost was so steep.
