    Summary

    Nobody tells Steve it's okay to cry.

    Nobody touches him.

    Nobody remembers Steve Rogers is a person under the mantle. It's okay. He hasn't felt like a person since he watched Bucky fall.

    Summary

    Clint's just being a good landlord, repairing some completely accidental, not even his fault a little bit, he didn't TELL those robots to... Uh. Repairing some damage to Aimee's apartment, when he's banned from IKEA. Look, it could happen to anyone!

    Lots of things happen to Clint that could happen to anyone. They just... don't.

    So he does what anyone would do, if they were an elite secret agent in desperate need of stylish yet inexpensive furnishings: he breaks in to IKEA. He finds the shelving he needs. He also finds the Winter Soldier.

    Record scratch whaaaaaat

    Things... escalate quickly.

    Clint can deal with danger. He can survive the gravad lax. He can escape the ball pit. He can dodge Natasha's disturbing Russian metaphors. But falling for the Winter Soldier?

    Yeahhhh Clint's in over his head.

    TL;DR: Clint finds Bucky living in an IKEA. For reasons. Idiots-to-lovers hijinks ensue.

    Alternately: Clint came here to kick ass and assemble IKEA furniture, and he's allll out of Allen wrenches. Seriously, could someone assemble this furniture for him? Will pay in blow-jobs. Assassin experience an asset. Heh, asset. What, too soon?

    Summary

    The Winter Soldier knows that sometimes, in order to make the kill, you must destroy what the Target lives for.

    Steve Rogers knows that he can't fight his captors. If he fights, they'll kill Bucky. But the price of his life is steep.

    Natasha Romanov would rather die than watch the Soldier struggle. It reminds her too much of herself.

    Tony Stark has nothing left to live for, but he's needed. So all these miserable motherfuckers better stay alive, too.

    Bruce Banner just wants to not be needed. And maybe he isn't - not for the Other Guy, not this time.

    Thor knows not what curse lies over Midgard, but it has taken his heart, and he will have vengeance.

    Sam Wilson is sick and tired of his friends getting hurt. What good is flying if you can't stop people from hitting the ground?

    Clint Barton never expected to be a leader. But a leader he is, and no one else is going to die on his watch.

    ---

    A story in which the first wave of Project Insight succeeds, and the Avengers must pick up the pieces and find a way to stop Hydra from completing its work with Zola's algorithm.
