Chapter List

Full Master List of all works

A/N: Trying to get back onto my Saturday posting schedule.

To be honest, the trip to the bar was a lot less fun than Verity had hoped.  The idea of blowing off some steam while drinking one too many glasses of wine, flirting with the wait staff and dancing up a storm had sounded like the perfect antidote to all her Cross related drama.  Maybe, if the music was loud enough, it might even drown out the telltale sighing of her heart.

But sadly it was not to be and Verity found herself gazing round the charming bar with its highly polished oak and brass fixtures and wishing she was anywhere but here. The place was crammed with beautiful people, all dressed to impress and clearly having a fabulous evening–just incase anyone was taking notes.

Sometimes I wonder...🤣

OH HO! At least she admits it to herself!!!

She is so clever and smart. I can't wait to read the banter and the tongue-lashing 😏 Cross will be getting once they've reunited.

I have no idea where this came from... just enjoy it lol 💚

Protector - Steve Rogers x YN 🪶🥰 (a little bit of 😫 at the start)

Summary: You’re taking forever to leave the house and you’re going to be late for Stark’s party, resulting in Steve’s growing frustration. He loses his patience and you confess the real reason you take your time before you leave – you feel anxious. He becomes your protector for the evening, ensuring you feel safe at all times.

Contains: Comforting, protective boyfriend Steve. He’s giving more ‘parent’ than ‘partner,’ but it is what it is. Praise kink if you squint.

Warnings: Descriptions of anxiety. Steve shouting at you out of frustration, but he apologises immediately afterwards, and it’s due to a misunderstanding.

Words: 1,900

A/N: The way Steve comforts her is @simplyholl’s brilliant headcanon.

“Come on, honey.”

It was the third time he’d said it. And his patience was wearing thin.

“Okay, okay, I just need to grab a bottle of water….” You scurried to the fridge, heart racing as it always did. Steve didn’t know why. He couldn’t know why.

He sighed. “They have drinks there.” His voice fell quiet. Defeated. “That’s why we’re goin’ after all.” He shook his head.

“Okay okay I’ll just be two seconds, I just need to get - “

“You know if I didn’t know better. I’d think you were doing this on purpose. You’re always teasing me about being Sergent Punctuality.”

Halfway up the stairs, you turned. You noticed Steve’s hands resting on his hips.

“What? Steve, no, I just need to grab one more thing - “

He rolled his eyes, glancing around the kitchen. He looked at his watch. You weren’t late. Not yet. But if you left it any longer, you would be. Your rapid footsteps alerted him to your reappearance, grabbing your bag and frantically searching through it. “Okay I have my phone, keys, lip balm, wallet - “

In two long strides he was beside you, a firm hand on your forearm. “Honey,” his voice was stern. “We have to go.”

“Yeah, I know, just let me check if I-“

“I’m serious.” His arms were folded now.

You swallowed. “Yeah…. sure, let me just - “

“That’s it. Get your bag right now, we’re leaving. No more of this.”

“Baby, I - “

“No!” He slammed a hand on the kitchen counter in pure frustration. The bark in his voice made you flinch. You felt as though the echo of his yell was rattling around in your ears and jiggling your brain. You absolutely couldn’t handle it. Not now.

awe 🥺🥺🥺

I completely get her...that part of my brain that thinks for every eventuality.

But im also like Steve where im a stickler for time. It's HELL being two sides of the same coin!

Whatever it Takes

Pairing: Loki x female reader (Y/N)

Summary: You are desperately in love with your best friend Loki but don't know if he will ever love you the same.

Warnings: feeling like Loki won't love you, does this count as vaguely mild smut? Lol you tell me idk

A/N: I honestly just love this song (linked below) and I imagine this back and forth a lot when I listen to it so I decided to just write down and share it with you all finally 💚

You hold onto Loki's arm as you walk up the four flights to your apartment, holding your heels in your other hand. You giggle a little when you look down at the overly comfortable sneakers Loki had conjured for you on your walk back from the Tower. Once you reach your front door, you open your bag to search for your keys and say, "Thanks Loki. You know you didn't have to walk me all the way here, though."

"Nonsense," he smiles warmly. "It was the least I could do after you kept me company all evening."

"You know deep, deep, deep down you love Stark's parties," you joke instead of admitting that the only reason you went was to be close to Loki.

He chuckles, "I will admit the food is always quite delicious but that is all you will get out of me."

You laugh, hiding the part of you that wishes the night didn't need to end here, as two friends. You run your thumb over the edge of your key and imagine for the hundredth time what would happen if you invited Loki inside but you push away the thought.

"Have a goodnight Y/N," Loki takes a step towards you and hugs you tightly. You rest your head on his chest, savoring the feeling of his arms around you.

"Goodnight Loki," you tell him, looking up at him. He smiles down at you and you wish he would lean down and kiss you but instead he releases you from his embrace.

"I will see you tomorrow," he promises then he waits with his hands in his suit pockets for you to enter your apartment.

awe super cute how he conjured shoes for her. This was super sweet and fits in well with the song! 😍

Eeeeuh, Tumblr again didn't tag me😡 and then I saw it and I was like, it makes me think about Poker Face so I thought I was wrong and I was so confused and now, I finally had time to read it and it was really these two 🫣

She finally realised that he loved her😍 it was time darling. He loved you for a while, but I can't blame her because of what he said to her about being willing to play is game. I am glad that he made her see what he meant all along.

The smut was so good. She was so needy and him too🥰

Nat is really the best friend that she needed but I am not sure that she really wants all the details 😂

I'm so sorry it didn't tag you my lovely. I've been having trouble with tags too. I don't get notified that I've been tagged in some stuff. or my tags aren't notifying other people.

But I'm glad you found it!

CHAPTER WARNINGS: Loki sexually harasses you/ is still a dick (he pulls it out)

MASTERLIST

“I’m not touching it.”

“Neither am I.” 

Ten minutes of near total silence went by as you and Loki stared at the floating body of the pilot, face down, while it made landfall. The closer it came, the more pungent the odor of death that came with it. It even appeared a bit bloated. You didn’t want to know what kinds of decay and bacteria were forming settlements in his body after a day of rotting and bobbing on the water.

i love how Loki has been naked throughout most of this chapter! lol.
