Summary
“And which of us do you trust?” she asked with a narrowed knowing gaze. “That’s what I thought,” she continued coolly when he didn’t respond. “Trust is an impossible feat for people like us.”
“Not impossible. Difficult, but not impossible.”
“I almost trusted someone once,” her tone turned wistful as she stepped away from him, retreating behind the wall of aloofness that she’d erected between them. “It wasn't particularly well done of me, it seems.”
OR: Bucky can't get a read on his new teammate Ava...and there may be a reason for that...

Summary
He hugged her close, strong arms—one given at birth, the other by Hydra--a temporary haven she could never keep. The warm brush of his lips against her forehead made her feel safe. "If I could figure it out, you'd come with me?"
"If you could figure it out, I'd go anywhere with you. Everywhere." He'd never figure it out. She knew this drill. Knew the minute his handlers found him, they'd erase her from him.
This only ended one way.
OR: The Winter Soldier and Ghost form a deep but doomed connection while working an assignment together.

Summary
Half-dazed from the pain and adrenaline, Ava hadn’t processed Bucky’s hand still wrapped around her wrist — vibranium pressed against her skin, grounding her as her molecules settled back into place. He’d been tethering her the entire sprint back, and somehow neither of them had let go.
Now, in the harsh fluorescent light of the jet, it was very noticeable.
John seemed to notice it at the same time as he exhaled slowly, leaning against the wall. “Uh, are we… holding hands now? Is this, like, a new tactical maneuver?”
When Bucky and Ava ignore each other like petty kids, it’s up to the rest of the Thunderbolts to deal with the two resident grumps. The result? Getting parent trapped (locked up together).
OR; taking shots at my beloved crackship again but comedy this time

Summary
“Ah, yes. Of course I remember,” Yelena said, smirking. “The vibranium effect. For stabilising. So she cuddles your arm now.”
Bucky put his fork down to pinch the bridge of his nose. “She isn’t—”
“She is,” John interrupted, raising an eyebrow. “Like… very much is.”
“Is she drooling on it?” Alexei asked, leaning over the table to check.
“Please tell me she is,” Yelena added.
Ava on her period is not to be messed with, especially with the additional pain. It’s not flirting if a certain vibranium arm stabilises her molecules. Right?
OR; i think Ava being the only one on the Thunderbolts* team who gets her period is hilarious so here we are
