If you like piña coladas and getting caught in the rain...
Kidding. Sort of (because I do like a good piña colada). These stories are for anyone who:
I hope you enjoy these stories as much as I loved writing them.
I refuse to believe Rhodey was switched at Civil War.
Refuse.
I don't care if it looks like he's wearing a hospital gown. Nope. No.
As far as I'm concerned, a little after TFATWS, Rhodey went in for a yearly check up or something. Maybe an xray to check on his legs. Then the Skrulls captured him and stole his leg brace things and that's why he couldn't stand up by himself.
I REFUSE to accept any earlier.
What? Is Marvel suggesting that Skrull Rhodey fought in Wakanda, spent the 5 Blip years working with the Avengers, did the Time Heist, bonded with Nebula, watched Tony die, and supported Sam with the shield?
IS THAT WHAT YOUR SAYING, MARVEL!?
Nope. No.
The very idea that Tony Stark wouldn't notice his best friend isn't his best friend? Tony Stark. Tony Stark.
He's a fucking genius. Get wrecked.
omg ur back
I am…lurking 👀

Title: Christmas in the District
Pairing: Steve Rogers x Reader
Type: Challenge // One-Shot // Coffee Shop AU
Word Count: 1,130
Summary: Christmas makes you want to be with the people you love. Will you and Steve finally admit your feelings for one another?
Warnings: fluff in the highest degree
A/N: @bitchassbucky is kicking off the season with a holiday writing challenge! If you’re looking to get into the spirit with us, follow along on the #abitchassholiday tag. Thanks for letting me play, Kaye!
If you happen to reblog, thank you for helping me spread my work! You can find more just like it on my master list.
“Doors opening on the left.”
You pour out of the train with a crowdful of others, everyone bracing for the cold awaiting them above the metro tunnel. The snow has been coming down for several days now, dropping the temperature even further as it settled in over the district. Not that you minded. The unexpected snowfall only added to the beauty that was Washington, DC in December.
The city is dressed in classic decorations at every turn. Towering Christmas trees sit in front of the Lincoln Memorial, inside the Capitol building, and on the White House lawn. Lamp posts are wrapped in garland with wreaths hanging from their lights. But your favorite place at Christmas is the little coffee shop you often frequent on the way to work.
Exiting the Archives Metro Station, you cross 7th and it’s not even a block up. The shop is nestled in a charming red brick building, its frosted windows warmed by the candles in the sills. When you walk in, you hear Sinatra crooning “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” and the whole place smells like a mix between baked gingerbread and fir trees. It was homey.
“Good morning, welcome to Sarah’s! What can I get you this morning?”
You order your usual from the girl behind the counter. If you were being honest with yourself, you would admit that you were disappointed to see her instead of Steve. He is one of the owners of the place and, after a year of making you coffee every morning, he doesn’t have to ask you what you’d like.
You are also madly in love with the man. Not that it matters.
HE BROUGHT HER HOT CHOCOLATE??????
Cant believe he was turning her down, and I can’t believe she kept ASKING. I wish I was that brave
This was so comfy cozy, just what I needed this Christmas 🫶🏼
Ya gotta be brave for loveeee!
Thank you for reading 💙
Title: ‘Tis the Season to be Married Pairing: Steve Rogers x Reader Type: Challenge // One-Shot Word Count: 1,457 Summary: As a New Yorker, it was always your dream to get married in the city at Christmas. You just didn’t think the actual day would be better than your imagination. Warnings: Fluff in the highest degree A/N: Getting into the holiday spirit with a challenge by @capcountdownchristmas using the prompt “Let’s make a toast.”
If you happen to reblog, thank you for helping me spread my work! You can find more just like it over on my master list.
Looking out of the window, you watch the snow spread a white blanket over New York City for your wedding day. Natasha fusses with your dress of similar color, fluffing out the tulle of the train for the hundredth time. Once she’s satisfied with the skirt, she makes her way up the back to fasten the buttons of the lace bodice, taking great care in each one. She spins you around, clearly pleased with her work and you smile, ignoring her worry.
After everything that happened in the last year, you weren’t sure you’d ever see this day, certainly not with all of your friends alive and intact. So, when Steve proposed shortly after returning the stones and bringing back Natasha, you knew you wanted something small and intimate at Christmastime. It was, after all, a season of peace.
Merry Christmas to my friends here that celebrate! ❤️

AUGH This is so cute I love 😭
I’m at the airport sad/mad and on the verge of tears because my flight just got delayed again but this made me feel better. Thank you, happy holiday(s) ❤️
Oh man, flight delays are the WORST! I hope you finally got to where you were heading.
And am so glad this story brought some joy into that stressful situation! 💙
It’s casual. I just got to meet one of my senators, Senator Warnock, at the airport. I got to congratulate him, thank him for the hard work, and welcome him home for the holidays.
And he was outrageously nice.
What is this life?
Kelli, did I imagine that you lived in Atlanta at some point? I just saw your Iceland post and kind of tilted my head in confusion.
Ha! I am from Atlanta. And I’m still here!
It’s my imagination that lives anywhere and everywhere else. 😂
In Iceland, they have a tradition of exchanging and reading books on Christmas Eve.
I absolutely love this idea and am doing it in real life, but I thought we could mix it up here.
I’m inviting anyone and everyone to drop a story in my inbox. It can be one you wrote…or one you loved reading. Just tell us why you love it and what we should know about it.
I’ll share them with all of my followers here and commit to reading as many as my schedule will allow.

@captain-kelli is hands-down one of the coolest, brightest, most joyous writers I've ever met. She radiates kindness and creativity, and has a completely infectious sense of humour. I admire her so much as a writer. She keeps her blog filled to the brim with positivity, great stories, and reaches out to others to make everyone feel included.
Oh my gosh I haven’t heard of this blog before but now I MUST follow!! She sounds amazing!
@captain-kelli present for you! 😌
This is far too sweet - thank you, you darling Secret Santa 💙

Summary: After a rescue mission gone wrong, you retire as a pararescue airwoman. When an old friend of yours comes calling, asking you to spearhead a disaster response team for the Avengers, you have to decide if you can let go of the past in order to save lives. Will you move on and possibly fall in love? Or will the demons of your past come back to haunt you?

I can never resist reading a story where Steve finds a special someone. More importantly letting her know how he feels before it’s too late.
Thank you so much for the kind words and for reading the story that made me a writer!! 💙
He is working through the unimaginable.
Frank Castle decided he knew better than the law and was tried for killing 37 people.
