Winter Wonderland Masterlist
Find my main masterlist here
This is a collection of oneshots/drabbles that revolve around a December prompt list I made for myself. A lot of them involve winter elements, but a select few will mention Christmas, and those will say in the beginning as I understand not everyone celebrates. They will mostly be Loki/reader, but who knows what else that might end up in here! Happy Holidays!
❤️= Fluff
🖤= Angst (not necessarily heavy... I can't write sad endings guys. If I do, I will warn you, I swear.)
Loki x Reader
Day 1 "Snowball Fight": Snowball Fight ❤️❄️
Day 2 "Fire": Fire is a Beautiful Thing ❤️❄️
Day 3 "Ice Skating": Quite Alright ❤️❄️
Day 7 "I Hate Christmas": I Hate Christmas ❤️🖤❄️
Loki x Amora
Day 4 "Stars": A Moment Away ❤️❄️
Loki x Darcy
Day 10 "Tape": Sticky Tape ❤️❄️

Quirks and Claws One Shot
Darcy Lewis/James "Logan" Howlett
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
In a dimly lit New York bar, the air was thick with the scent of whiskey and low murmurs. Vintage posters and flickering neon lights created an inviting yet dangerous atmosphere, perfect for secrets.
Darcy Lewis sat at the bar, her colorful outfit standing out against the somber decor. With dark, wavy hair and oversized glasses, she exuded quirky confidence. Dressed in a vintage Nirvana shirt, plaid skirt, and chunky jewelry, she felt ready for adventure.
As she sipped her drink, her gaze landed on Logan Howlett, a rugged figure at the far end. Known as Wolverine, he had tousled dark hair, stubble, and a muscular frame. Clad in a worn tank top and faded jeans, he radiated danger, and his piercing blue eyes captivated her.
Embracing her spontaneous spirit, Darcy leaned against the bar with a mischievous smile and called out, “Trouble never looked so fine!”
Logan turned, surprised by her boldness. “Is that so?”
“Absolutely! You look like you’ve seen hell, yet here you are, alone like it’s just another Tuesday. That’s badass.”
Logan chuckled, intrigued. “You’ve got guts. Most wouldn’t dare approach me.”
“Most people are boring,” she shot back. “What’s your story, Wolverine? Those scars must have some tales.”
He studied her, intrigued. “You’re not afraid of trouble, are you?”
“Only the boring kind. So, are we swapping stories or just brooding?”
Logan crossed his arms. “Maybe I like brooding.”
“Everyone needs a little chaos,” she countered. “I’ll buy you a drink if you share the adventure behind those scars.”
For the first time in ages, Logan felt a flicker of interest. “Alright, but just one drink,” he challenged.
Darcy’s eyes sparkled. “One drink it is! But only if you promise to tell me everything.”

Little Moments
Jane Foster x Reader
Tumblr media
Masterlist - Join My Taglist!
Written for my personal fic writing challenge for 2024, Sophie's Year of Fic! Featuring a new fic being posted every Friday, all year long :)
Fandom: Marvel
Summary: Dating Jane Foster means being prepared to handle a certain amount of crazy interruptions from superheroes.
Word Count: 1,306
Category: Fluff
Putting work into an AI program without permission is illegal. You do not have my permission. Do not do it.
CRASH!
"Watch where you're going!"
I scrunched my face, trying to figure out what the hell was happening as I got dragged awake by a hushed commotion from my living room. I squinted through the dark at the alarm clock only to be near-blinded by the bright green glow:
4:03am
I groaned, rolling over on my other side to see my girlfriend, Jane foster, rubbing at her eyes.
"Hey," I managed, my voice gravelly. Jane turned to me with squinted eyes, somehow still managing to make that cute. "What's happening?"
"I don't know. Did you hear-?"
The door to our shared bedroom slammed open, and I shot straight up in bed. Silhouetted in the doorway was an absolutely giant man, long blond hair glowing with the backlighting. I thought I might be hallucinating until Jane sat forward and spoke up.
"Thor?"
"Thor?" I couldn't help echoing. The man before us just beamed.
"Hello! I apologize for interrupting the two of you - I truly wouldn't be here if it weren't urgent."
I frowned, even as Jane sat forward further.
"How did you-?"
Before she could get all the way through her question, the answer popped out from behind Thor.
"Jane, I'm so sorry!"
Darcy Lewis peeked around Thor's massive form to pop her head into the room. I huffed a sigh and flopped back against the pillows. I normally liked Darcy, but not at four in the morning. I didn't like anyone but Jane at four in the morning.
"Darcy, what's going on?"
"He just showed up at the lab!" said Darcy, pushing past Thor even further into the room. "I was there doing... stuff with Ian, and he just appeared in a blast of light like the first time we met him."
"I need your help, Jane," Thor said, stepping in to pick up the story where Darcy left off. "Something is coming for Midgard, and if we don't stop it here, it will not only lay waste to your planet, but it will aim for mine next."
Jane sighed like that wasn't the most terrifying sentence in the world, then stood at last. I'd known her long enough that I was also a little too used to this kind of thing, so I didn't move to get up, even as Jane turned to me with furrowed eyebrows.
"I'm sorry about this," she said. I gave her a tired grin and a wink.
"That's okay. I know my girlfriend's a badass who has to help save the world sometimes."
Jane flushed, and I heard Darcy make a gagging noise at the same time Thor said "aw". I ignored them both, however, as I shifted slightly lower against the headboard, working my way back to being under the covers.
"I hope you'll forgive me going back to sleep instead of getting up to help you with this, though."
Jane gave me a soft smile, leaning down across the bed to kiss me softly on the forehead. I smiled up at her, the love of my life, shooting her a little wink as I nestled down among the blankets again. I watched her walk to the door, collecting Thor and Darcy as she went, all three of them stepping out into the living room. Jane shut the door softly behind her, and I finally closed my eyes. I sighed, settling back down into the soft, warm blankets around me. I almost got all the way back to sleep before I heard another loud crash from the living room, followed by Jane's whispered reprimand, not quite loud enough for me to make out the words.
I sighed, then flung the blankets off of myself and started trudging for the living room. Peaceful sleep was likely out of the question, and I should probably go support my girlfriend anyway. I'd go to the ends of the Earth for Jane, and that was all well and good, but nobody talked about dragging yourself out of bed to go a hundred feet at four in the morning. That was the true test of love.
As soon as I cleared the bedroom door, shuffling in like a zombie, I found Thor leaning over the dining table with Darcy in the kitchen, Jane hovering over Darcy's shoulder and trying to take a bowl out of her hand.
"I'm gonna make us pancakes!" hissed Darcy, clearly trying to be quiet despite how miserably she was failing. Jane hissed back in the same tone.
"No! It's too loud, and it's four am! Just come help me go over the stuff Thor brought-"
"I'll make pancakes," I said. Jane and Darcy both froze, mid-wrestle, and turned to me, Thor looking up too with a grin on his face.
"Honey! Are you sure?" asked Jane, letting go of the bowl and taking a few steps towards me. I gave her my best tired smile and closed the rest of the distance between us, wrapping one arm around her waist.
"Yeah, I'm sure. I can't just leave my superhero girlfriend high and dry in a possibly-world-ending situation with no one to make pancakes and coffee," I said, giving her a kiss on the forehead. She smiled as Darcy piped up from the kitchen.
"Maybe start with coffee first."
"Oh, definitely start with coffee first," I agreed, at last releasing Jane and heading into the kitchen. I sighed as I finally, successfully took the bowl from Darcy, setting it down next to the coffee maker as I got things together to brew a fresh pot.
Thankfully, it didn't take long to get a coffee in my hand, then in the hands of the three people crowded around the dining table. I took a long sip of my own drink, then got to work on the pancakes while the others tried to troubleshoot whatever emergency Thor had shown up with.
Based on their tones and lack of overall panic, I had full confidence they'd find a solution to whatever the issue was. Jane especially loved nothing more than solving a challenging problem, and every time I looked over at her, her face was alight with the spark that I'd fallen in love with. Even though it was four in the morning.
Finally, the first batch of pancakes was ready to come off the griddle. Thor wandered over to me as I grabbed a spatula and started serving them up, leaving Jane and Darcy at the dining table.
"Is there anything I can do to assist you?" he asked, leaning on the counter next to me as I worked. I shook my head.
"Nope! Just go ahead and dive in. I'd tell you to bring some over to Jane and Darcy, but I know my girlfriend too well to suggest you bring syrup anywhere near a project she's working on."
Thor chuckled and grabbed a plate full of pancakes, moving to sit at the stool on the other side of the counter from me.
"You and Jane make a wonderful couple," he said, digging into the pancakes with no hesitation. I smiled at him, then let my gaze wander over to Jane behind his back. She hunched over the information before her, moving it around and discussing theories with Darcy. My smile widened as I watched her, a warm glow spreading through my heart that only intensified as she caught me looking and gave me a gorgeous smile of her own. She turned back to her work, and I reluctantly turned my attention back to the pancakes and the Asgardian before me.
"She's the best. Makes it easy to be a good couple, when my partner's so wonderful," I said. Thor hummed, a comfortable silence resting between the two of us. Despite how early and against my will I'd been dragged out of bed, and despite the less-than-casual circumstances, we'd found ourselves in a little bubble of pre-sunrise peace. I'd follow Jane anywhere, anytime, especially since sudden 4am intrusions often turned into little moments like this.

PoliZ’s WIP Update - 8 Nov 2023
Another strong week -  though will probably be slowing down for the rest of the month due to Real Life Stuff.  I touched 5  fics (2 WIPs & 3 new works)  for a total of  2403 words, about half of which was on one fic. 
On Ao3, I posted: 
 Love Persevering  - a Stucky oneshot featuring modern!Bucky (kind of?) and ghost!Steve with bonus neighbor!Darcy
WinterIron Bingo Round Robin - November 2023 - established WinterIron relationship Tower fic with a touch of therapy-related angst.   
On Tumblr I posted: 
The Secrets We Keep -  first person alternating POV with mutual pining (and secret identity) Stony.  
I have  19  semi-active WIPs  😬 with my  current  deadlines being  the WinterIron Bingo which wraps on 16 Dec and Stucky’Verse Bingo which wraps on 22 Dec.  
See  below cut for what I’m working on/planning to work on - arranged more or less by bingos/challenges/etc.  As always, feel free to send me   prompts or plot bunnies as well as asks regarding  any of these projects  or any other WIPs I’ve got out there.   Interaction really helps feed the Muse and keep me motivated!
Seek & Destroy Collab
After reading @psychiccatpanda‘s amazing   Morguna and the Green Queen, I  got the itch to explore the Soldier’s POV and talked  Faustie into   collab’ing with me!  We’re working on a new part of the series, and I’ve  contributed about 900 words towards the  2500-ish we have so far.   Going to see if I can squeeze any of my BBB squares into this fic.
WinterIron Bingo  - [WIB_R1]   (Ends 16 Dec 2023)
I have twenty-one  fills completed (including a couple of adoptables) for this brand-new bingo event that I’m helping mod! 
* B column squares for the Iron Soldier badge (complete a bingo with a single work). – Alpha Tony Stark, “That was not my intention.”, James Rhodes, Alpine loves Tony and Blind date.   Need to figure out an angle on this.  
* N1 - Bucharest –  ended up using this for the WinterIron Bingo Round Robin - November 2023, which posted this morning. It’s an established WinterIron relationship fic where Bucky is working with a therapist and getting some guff from Steve about it. My part came in at   361 words. 
* G4 - AU: College Students – Expanding on  Beaten to the Punch with a bit of backstory on Bucky and Tony  to fit with this square. It’s coming in at 408 words and am targeting it to post next Wednesday as a cross over with my WFB  Volunteering Together square.  
* O5 - Gentle – use this poem  as inspiration?
Stucky’Verse Bingo Round 1 - [SVB_R1]   (Ends 22 Dec)
Thirteen  fills, two WIPs and a couple of ideas.
* A1 - Harem - crossover with CABB Secret/Forbidden Relationship - Bucky and shrimpy!Steve are both concubines who love each other more than their lord. I poked at this a little for 71 words.
* B4 - Sugar Daddy -  looking for inspiration - combining with CABB  Nov Adoptable: Sugar Baby.  Possibly shrimpy!Steve and beefy!Bucky?   
* A5 - Haunted Hotel -  Posted Love Persevering  last Friday as a combo with my SRB - Darcy Lewis &   pJBB B1 - Ask the neighbor if they know why your apartment is haunted squares. It features  modern!Bucky (kind of?)   and ghost!Steve (with bonus neighbor!Darcy)  and came in at 1610 words 
* A4 - Fairy Tale Curse  - this seems custom-made for a continuation of Beyond the Beast😁  Nothing written yet, other than some Vague Ideas.  
* C3 - FREE -  probably using this for Chapter 2 of   Half of the Flesh and Blood That Makes Me Whole   - a Bucky POV remix of at least the first part of Take What Was Wrong (And Make it Right), which is currently sitting at  52 words.  I’m expecting at least one more chapter, possibly two, depending on how far I want to take the remix.   
Bucky Barnes Bingo  - [BBB_R5]   (Ends 10 Jan 2024)
I’ve got  sixteen fills,  four WIPs,   and a couple more Vague ideas.
* U3 - Fireplace -  Working on a 1980′s No Powers WinterIron fic set at a ski lodge where Tony’s being wooed by poetry and love letters that Bucky wrote to someone else.   Started poking at this as a crossover with a Love Letters prompt and it’s sitting at 129 words.
* C2 - Yelena Belova–   The plan is to use this prompt in the next chapter of Peresmešnik,  (aka Three Avengers and a Baby), which is currently sitting at 1303 words (600-ish of which are mine).
* C3 - FREE  - the BBB Discord party resulted in a hilarious Mob AU communal story  (mobster!Bucky & clueless!Steve plus Clint&Natasha&Scott shenanigans)   that several of us did/are going to contribute to Rashomon-style.  
* C5 - Marriage of Convenience/Pretend Couple -  next chapter of   Lady Natasha’s Consort and Lord Steve’s Companion.    Got a spark of an idea the other day that might get me a bit further on this fic.  
* K3 - Magic -  Aro!Bucky healing with a kiss idea?
* Y3 - Alpine  - see WIB Iron Soldier combo.
* Y4 - Forgotten Things -   using this for Chapter 4 of   You Can’t Stop It With a Gun  - it’s sitting at  116 words at the moment.
* May Adopted - Insomnia - finally got this filled with The Dead of Night, which also filled a Flash Fiction Friday prompt [#FFF211 An Old Friend] along with my JBB FREE square. It came in at 317 words and will post to Ao3 before this event ends.
* August Adopted: Take the Shot - sounds like a WinterHawk fic to me… maybe cross over with JBB Touch-starved?  Whumptober/Fictober possibilities as well. 
Tony Stark Bingo Round 7  - [TSB_R7]   (ends 15 Feb)
Sixteen  fills and one WIPs, with a couple of ideas in play.  
* S1 - Galaxy - possibly use in final chapter of   Never More to Go Astray ?  
* T2 - KINK: Cock-blocking 'bots -  I still want to combine this with  the  Fictober Day 27: prompt   "I don't know if they will accept this."   
* T3 - A pairing you've never done - I was inspired by @rebelmeg’s  Wingmen and Airmen, Flirting and Flying  to write a remix/spinoff of the first chapter, where Tony flirts with Maria Rambeau while Rhodey and Carol get to know one another better.  No Sensation to Compare With This is drafted at 1096 words and will post on Friday. 
* T5 - Shawarma - possible crossover with SAUB Canon Divergence – Battle of New York-related?
* A2 - KINK: Concubine - possible crossover with SAUB Gentle Dom
* A3 -  FREE  – @SomeSortofItalianRoast and I are looking at collabing on a  Steve/Tony/Scott fic - maybe throw in a Comfortember prompt?  
* R5 - Doppelganger/Evil Twins -   The Flash Fiction Friday prompt [#FFF214 Broken Mirror] got me at least a good start on the idea I’ve been playing with for this square. I posted NamNori on Tumblr and have a general idea of how I want to build on it to also fill my SAUB AU: Crack square. It’s currently sitting at 360 words.
Stony AUniverse Bingo  [SAUB_R1] (ends 15 Feb)
Another brand-new bingo I’m helping co-mod!   Six fills, three WIPs and several  crossover ideas already!
* S1 - Edging - Filled this with Ringing in the New, where Tony makes a suggestion to improve/change up their love life. It’s a crossover with a Flash Fiction Friday prompt: How Do You Use ‘It’? and came in at 324 words - I will post it to Ao3 before the event is over.
* S2 - AU: Crack - see TSB   Doppelganger/Evil Twins
* S3 - AU: Wings - see SVB FREE square
* S5 - Accidental Baby Acquisition - see BBB Yelena Belova
* T1 - AU: Fantasy -  CoffeeOwl shared a really cool dragon!Steve/indebted!Tony prompt in the ACB Discord server that I may be playing with for this.
* T4 - AU: Canon Divergence - see TSB Shawarma above.
* O2 - Omegaverse - I have a Vague Idea inspired by  @kandisheek’s lovely art piece.  
* N2 - Mutual Pining - crossover with CABB Royal Knight?
* N3 - Gentle Dom - see TSB KINK: Concubine above
* N5 - AU: Multiple Identities - Posted  The Secrets We Keep  to Tumblr on Friday. It’s a first person alternating POV ficlet with mutual pining (and secret identity) Stony.   It came in at 314 words and will get posted to Ao3 before the event ends. 
* Y4 - AU: Soulmates  -  @chrissihr  posted a cool idea about Animated soulmarks, where  only your SM sees your mark move - may try to do something with this!  
Captain (America) Bottom Bingo - Round 2 [CABB] (ends 28 Feb 2024)
I signed up for a 3x3 card for this bingo and have four fills, one WIPs and a couple of crossover ideas.
* A2 - Secret/Forbidden Relationship - see SVB Harem
* B3 - Royal Knight - see SAUB Mutual Pining.
* Nov Adoptable: Sugar Baby - see SVB  Sugar Daddy.
Post July Break Bingo  [JBB_23p] (Ends Apr 2024)
@julybreakbingo is running another event to tide participants over with a 2x3 non-fandom-specific card - still working on  potential crossovers.
* A1 - “It’s you. It’s always been you.�� - This might fit in with my TSB Doppelgangers/Evil Twins fill NamNori above :: ponders::
* B1 - Ask the neighbor if they know why your apartment is haunted  -  see SVB  Haunted Hotel 
* B2 - Character’s personality is split into two different beings – I’ve never played with Bucky & the Soldier being two different people, but this seems like the perfect opportunity! Will see what might be a good crossover on BBB or WIB (or even SVB)
*  C1 - Touch Starved – another good fit for a Bucky-centric fic. (Steve or Tony or Clint) possibly crossover with BBB Take the shot?
Steve Rogers Bingo - Round 3 [SRB_R3] (ends  15 Jun 2024)
Got my card and requested a few swaps - need to ponder possible crossovers, especially with SAUB, SBV   & CABB.  
* C5 - Exes to Lovers  - crossover with  CABB - "B1 - "All I wanted was for you to be happy."  – Bucky or Tony as the Ex?   SAUB S4 - Arranged Marriage  might be an additional crossover  
* D1 - Multiple Submissives -  crossover with  CABB - C3 - Bath/shower sex  and SAUB  Y1 - Pre-Serum Steve Rogers?  
* E1 - Darcy Lewis - See SRB A5 - Haunted Hotel 
Warm and Fluffy   Bingo  - [WFB]   (no end date)
I got my card from  @warmandfluffybingocards back in February but really haven’t done much with it  - however, I’m picking it back up for some crossover possibilities!
 * O5 - Volunteering Together – see WIB AU: College Students
————
On  other creative fronts:  I am working on a Bela Lugosi  Stuffed With Character figure for a commission and have gotten the requests from two of my three   Marvel Trumps Hate  auction winners - seven figures total!
If  you’re looking for one of a kind gifts for birthdays or other celebrations (besides this coming Christmas), check  out Stuffed With Character    over on Facebook for a full list of my designs (now over 150!).   These soft stuffed figures are  mostly Marvel and monsters, but I have some Star Wars, Star Trek, DC   and Disney figures as well. Plus I love to take custom design   requests  for any fandom!

darcy lewis x reader / masterlist
summary; darcy decides to try a dating app, least to say, the guy isn’t anything like his picture. and thus she ditches him, and finds someone else in a hot second / warnings; the oc guys in this fic are dicks, homophobia, darcy being bae, swearing, mentions of sex and cheating, mentions of joy x reader.
he was a polar opposite to what he had portrayed his online self to be, screw the internet! this date was truly tragic, darcy had plenty of things that she could be better using her time for, rather than sitting opposite this oaf, that was licking his unappealing lips, and staring at the waitress when he thought that she didn’t notice.
“huh?” the scientific doctor pulled her phone out, ushering a puzzled expression on her face as she stared at the blank screen. she of course recognised that no one was making any attempts to contact her, but he didn’t know that. “one second.” she held her finger up, bringing the phone to her ear as she blabbered into the speaker that was inherently catching nothing that she was saying.
“slow down jane.” darcy falsely ushered, using her hands to exaggerate the conversation in her head. she put the phone down, a facade of panic elaborating behind her spectacle adorned eyes as she grabbed her belongings in a frenzy, standing upright and out of her seat. “im so sorry, my friend has just hit some guy with her car and she needs some moral support. tonight is going to have to be cut extremely short.”
short was a relief, but the hopeful expression on this dude’s face wasn’t. perhaps it was cruel to leave this guy hanging, and well, she couldn’t blame him for wanting more, she sent him an awkward smile as he began to speak. “we should do this again some time - properly.” darcy wasn’t dumb, she noticed how his eyes sped to the side as the curvy waitress walked by.
“sure...” no, definitely not. darcy was well aware that she was wasting her time with this moron, she didn’t need a man, let alone a dweeb of one. a quick wave was all she bade him as she exited the coffee shop, only to become engrossed in a scene erupting on the local streets. there was a woman, flinging shirts, and a bra within the bundle that looked as though it was not her size, what was she thinking, clearly it wasn’t, at said example of figurative masculinity.
“screw you durkus!” any guy named ‘durkus’ was basically a label confirming that he was a dick. “i don’t need you, nor the next man! i am a well established woman who has done more for this country than you could ever know, you’re dust beneath my feet, a pathetic layer of residue that i want nothing more to brush off.” perhaps she was being harsh, but it sounded like he deserved it.
from the red lipstick, that the woman was not at all sporting, from the random bra that she had flung at her partner, it was a safe bet to assume that he had cheated on her. darcy plodded closer, listening whimsically in, and realising that her life was pretty calm, there were no longer asguardians or dark elves infiltrating her life, nor the work that she had attained to field in.
she had only recently earned herself the title of doctor, and it was frustrating that people would assume that she opted for a profession in a hospital room, or they would forget the professional endorsement all together, and address her as ‘miss lewis’. she was no one’s puppet, she had scaled herself up the ladder of her career to be where she was now, but another thing that she was alongside such a wave of potential was a feminist.
this dick was shouting in the streets, calling her inexplicable names such as a ‘whore’, and a ‘two faced bitch’. having the ability to hear the insults brew anger in her stomach, she couldn’t just stand there. “what are you going to do, turn into a complete lesbian?” now that was the last straw, it had darcy marching over, and promptly she shoved the guy, making him drop all the items that were grasped in the basket of his arms.
a flabbergasted ‘huh’ was riveted from him, and it made darcy smirk as she attuned his attention towards her; the stranger that had gotten involved in his public display of disrespect and homophobia. “how about you watch your damned mouth before i make sure you can’t open it again. and whilst you’re at it, get some new shirts, you’re not a model, unless you’re the kind that are put on prison pamphlets.”
“who the fuck are you?” he spat his saliva on the ground by darcy’s feet, establishing her with the information that her first impression of this dick had been correct. women just knew with this kind of thing, they could sense trouble from a mile away. “you know what, keep that crazy bitch. maybe you can help her store her katanas, and go on double dates with danny rand and his plus one. rather you than me.”
“don’t ask.” the woman shook her head, tired of the drama that durkus always seemed to bring. she had enough trouble, involving work and extracurricular night time activities, without him adding to them. darcy presented her with a sweet smile, picking up the box of random bits and bobs that was on the floor. “that’s just work stuff, i’m moving offices and as i came to collect some things from our apartment, and i found him- well let’s just say he wasn’t alone.”
“that was pretty easy to pick up on. how’d you not realise that you were dating a total sleaze?” she was blunt with her enquiry, though the woman shrugged, a guilty expression cowering upon your features, like an ashamed shadow. a small, attractive smile graced her lips, secrets hidden beneath the span of the expression.
“oh, i knew. i just had to pretend to be happy, so that my ex, or well now, my other ex joy would stop chastising me, claiming that i haven’t got over her. she’s so up her own ass sometimes and it drives me- shit, i’m sorry, you don’t know me, nor do you need to hear about my problems.” the y/h/c haired woman shook her head, stretching her hand out to miss lewis. “i’m y/n, thanks a bunch for helping me out back there.”
darcy accepted her handshake, completing the action as she smiled. “i’m darcy.” this woman didn’t need to know about her doctor title, in fact, darcy was keen on knowing everything about her instead. “so’d how you meet him?” referring to the person that had most recently became y/n’s ex. y/n was relieved that darcy had shown up, she was sure she’d have used her martial art training for more than composition; she’d have kicked durkus’ flat ass.
“on a dating app.” it was a normal answer, she wouldn’t share the intel that before that she had saved his ass whilst wearing a black hood, stopping him from getting mugged in the dead of night. perhaps she should have saved someone else that particular late evening. darcy couldn’t help but let a small laugh out, finding both their circumstances quite amusing. she was sure a similar situation would have unfolded if she had decided to regularly see the date that she ditched.
“online dating man, it sucks, am i right?” it had quite the reputation, for the two of them especially. “maybe we should just date each other.” she joked, though she was being partially serious. it felt right, they had bumped randomly into one another’s faulted situations on the same day, it almost felt like fate, though that subject was too cheesy to say aloud.
“well doctor lewis, i would not at all mind going on a date with you.” darcy frowned at the title that she had been called, pointing at the side of the woman’s jacket, that had a recyclable label stuck upon the material. “so you majored in science, if i am correct?” finally, someone got it! she could get used to that.
y/n did not appear as a deity nor a creature from another realm, she was normal. or so as far as the eye could tell, in fact, she did not suspect a thing from this woman, much less to be a defender of the earth that worked in a small and less know league than the avengers, yet still roamed the us to protect its people.
darcy though had won this battle for her though, giving her a moment of peace from fighting, and had idly sent durkus on his route far away. y/n could get used to not being the hero all the time, more so if this doctor was her knight in shining armour.

is this a thing?
Darcy Lewis x Reader
Word count: 700
Warnings: stupid hayward </3
Prompt: Hey! I have a request for Darcy? If you write for her? Maybe something where r is daughter of one of the avengers and is required to help sword with getting into the hex, maybe like Tony's daughter with her own tech or something and Darcy falls in love with her on the way? Of course you absolutely don't have to do this if you don't want to or don't like it.
Summary: Darcy and R have fallen for each other while working together with S.W.O.R.D.
Tumblr media
gif from - @bonniebirddoesgifs​
“Coffee, Dr Lewis?” You asked, holding out a cup of coffee for Darcy with a charming smile.
“You’re like the only one here willing to get me coffee, I swear,” She scoffed, but smiled back at you as she took it.
“Well we have to keep you awake, don’t we? You are the genius who figured this all out.”
Darcy rolled her eyes to play off the blush growing on her face and sipped her coffee, “Flattery will get you nowhere, Ms Stark.”
You chuckled and shook your head, “If you say so.”
Hayward called you away from her and you gave her an apologetic smile as you walked off to talk to the devil’s human incarnate.
He kept you away for the next three hours, having you help him further develop the software he was using to track Vision and show him the prototype of a drone you had made that you suspected would be able to pass through the hex.
You were finally let off half an hour after the sun went down. You stopped by the kitchen and grabbed yourself a snack and water before leaving to sit outside the tent.
You ate in silence for a while before you heard the door behind you open and someone clear their throat, so you looked over your shoulder and saw Darcy, hands in the pockets of her jacket and a beanie on her head.
You smiled and moved over so she could sit next to you, which she did wordlessly. She sat right next to you. You could feel her puffy jacket against you and the outside of her thigh touched yours.
Darcy confused you. You knew that she was aware of your flirting, but you couldn’t figure out if she was just playing along or if she liked you, too. She was different than most people, she had a certain gentleness to her, but she was also really funny and super smart.
You’d taken after your father in more ways than one. You followed in his footsteps in regards to his career and his notorious ‘sleeping around’. It wasn’t unhealthy, it was just something you did, you never seemed to be able to find the right person, the same way your dad hadn’t until he found Pepper. Maybe Darcy could be your Pepper.
Darcy sighed softly and rubbed her hands together.
“You cold?” You asked quietly, looking over at her.
“Yeah, I left my gloves inside,” She chuckled and pushed her glasses further up the bridge of her nose.
You gave her a soft smile and held out your hands to her. She smiled back at you and took them. You squeezed her hands gently in an attempt to warm them up faster and started to rub her knuckles with your thumbs.
“Thanks,” Darcy blushed before looking at you with a furrowed brow, looking as if she was in thought.
You raised a questioning brow and she squinted her eyes, “Is this a thing? Or am I crazy?”
“Is what a thing?” You asked.
“The flirting that you do, is it just for fun or..” She trailed off and her eyes flicked around, feeling too awkward to look you in the eyes.
“I like you, Darcy, I’m not flirting with you to fuck with you.”
A smile grew on Darcy’s face and she looked down at her hands in yours, nodding as she started speaking, “It’s just- no offense, but you do kind of have a record.. of sorts.”
Fair enough, you thought and chuckled, “You know, when people say ‘no offense’ it’s because they’re about to say something at least semi-offensive.”
“Sorry, I didn’t mean to-”
“I’m just teasing, Darce’. But so you know, I don’t usually go around telling girls that I like them just so they’ll sleep with me. I seriously like you, like- a lot,” You bit your lip.
“I like you a lot, too,” She smiled and squeezed your hands.
Her eyes flicked down to your lips and you bit back a smile, “Can I kiss you?”
“Please.”

Gift from the Sky
Loki Oneshot Masterlist - Main Masterlist
POV: Third
Ship: Loki x Darcy Lewis
Type: Fluff... maybe a little crack as well? But that's just bc it's literally impossible to write this ship without just a bit of fun.
Warning: Lil bit of suggestive referencing but that's it
Wordcount: 1,769
Synopsis: It's not every day an angel ends up bleeding in your yard. But it did happen to Darcy Lewis.
A/N: This was originally part of my AU-gust shit last year, and well, yeah it just got finished. Slowly trying to crack my writers block. Tasertricks is so fun tho!!!
Tumblr media
“What the shitballs?” Darcy said, hearing a loud crash outside. Having some sort of self-survival skills, she grabbed her taser and headed outside, where she found a man laying on the ground. 
Darcy stared at the man for a second, who made no move to get up. “Uh, sir?” She called, but the man didn’t answer.
She contemplated calling the cops, as the man looked pretty beat up. He had several cuts and bruises adorning his face, and seemed to have taken a pretty big fall. Where he had fallen from, however, was not something Darcy knew.
“Are you ok?” She asked, and this time the man groaned in response. Baby steps, baby steps. “Do you want me to call the police?” She asked, and that seemed to get the man's attention. 
“No.” He responded, slowly sitting up. “No need for police. I apologize for the intrusion. I’m assuming I’m on Midg- Earth?” He asked, and Darcy stared at him. 
Maybe he she would need her taser after all. It was becoming increasingly clear that this man was either on drugs, or just batshit crazy. Darcy wasn’t taking any chances on either. “Yes, you are on Earth. New Mexico, to be exact.”
The man stood up, wiping some dirt off of his outfit. He was rather tall, and his black hair was loose around his face. He was dressed in some sort of white robe that faded to black at the bottom. 
Then it hit Darcy. There was a mental facility not too far from where she lived, and there was a chance that this man had somehow escaped.
“Look dude.” She said, still gripping her taser in the pocket of her jacket. “I don’t know where you’re from, or how you ended up here, but I don’t care. As long as you get off my property, I won’t snitch. There’s a gas station down the road you can go to if you want.”
He seemed to nod, and then he tried to rub his back with his hands. Darcy had no clue what he was doing, so she just stood there. “Got an itch or something?” 
He shook his head, frowning, before turning around so Darcy could see his back. “Is there anything there? Any pair of, perhaps, big objects on my back?” 
Darcy opened her mouth a little bit, confused as frick, before shaking her head. “Nope, just your back.” She said, before squinting a bit further. “Wait. You're bleeding.”
Darcy walked up closer to the man, still well aware of the heavy weight of her taser in her pocket, to get a closer look. “Holy guacamole, dude! What did you do to your back?” 
Blood was quickly seeping through the fabric of the man’s robes, and Darcy became increasingly concerned. “Ah.” He said, seemingly coming to a realization. “So that’s where the pain was coming from.”
Darcy contemplated her choices of actions before making a decision. Chances were, this guy wasn’t going to want to call an ambulance, for whatever reasons that might be. But, because Darcy was a decent human being, she didn’t want to send the man off to bleed out either. 
“Look, I’ve got some stuff I can bandage you up with inside, but you’ve gotta at least tell me who you are.” She finally said, and the man nodded. 
“I am Loki, angel of Alfheim.” He introduced, before tilting his head. “Well, was an angel of Alfheim. I suppose now I’d be considered fallen.”
“Right.” Darcy said, sighing. So this man was from the mental ward. Fantastic, really, since she had just offered to patch him up. 
She decided to give him the benefit of the doubt, not letting her guard down, and helped him inside. She had him sit on a chair while she grabbed some antiseptics and bandages. “I’m going to need you to take the robe off your back, but please leave the bottom half on.” She said, and she heard the man laugh from the other room.
“So, how’d you get your black to bleed like that?” Darcy asked, taking in the two oddly shaped wounds. It was almost like… She chuckled to herself. “Let me guess, your wings fell off or something?”
Loki grimaced as Darcy began to wipe away some of the blood. “Something like that.” He replied, and Darcy silently shook her head as she applied some of the antiseptic to his skin. He hissed, but she continued her movements.
“I appreciate your hospitality…” Loki trailed off, and Darcy smiled. 
“Darcy.” She said, cutting off some of her bandage wrap to use. She had to walk around Loki, wrapping him up like a present. Luckily, the bandages managed to stop most of the bleeding, so that was good.
He grunted as the bandage rubbed up on his wound, but managed to pull off a tight smile. “Nice to meet you, Darcy.”
Darcy finished with the bandages and zipped them up in a first aid kit and put it up in the closet before tossing Loki a water bottle. “Drink this.”
Loki did as he was told, gulping down the water as Darcy checked the pantry. “You hungry?” She asked, digging around to find something she could offer him.
“Yes, actually.” Loki said, and Darcy pulled out a can of chicken noodle soup. 
“I have this.” She said, holding the can up. “I probably need to go grocery shopping, because I don’t have a whole lot.” 
Loki nodded, waving his hand in the air. “Yes, that will suffice, thank you.” He said, and Darcy threw the soup in the microwave, because she didn’t feel like waiting to heat it up in a pot.
Once it was done, she poured it into a bowl and grabbed a spoon, handing it to Loki. “Thank you.” He said, and Darcy grabbed a bag of chips for herself.
Once they were both done eating, they wallowed in silence for a few minutes before either of them said anything. Finally, Darcy broke the silence. “So who are you really?” She asked, catching Loki a bit off guard. 
“I am who I said I am. Loki, angel-fallen-of Alfheim.” He replied, but Darcy just raised her eyebrows.
“Right, so I’ve heard, but why have you fallen, or whatever you call it, to Earth?” She inquired, still convinced that this was probably an escaped patient. He didn’t seem to mean her any harm, though, so she figured it would be alright. She didn’t completely relax, since she wasn’t that stupid.
The man/angel shrugged. “I grew bored of such familiar scenes. After so long, there was nothing left for me there. Unfortunately, I could not leave without some,” he glanced at his bandages, “retaliation.”
Darcy nodded. She wasn’t believing his story one bit, but to humor herself, she popped a question to see what his response would be. “If you are who you say you are, can’t you prove it?”
Loki didn’t seem off put by her question. “How would you like me to prove it to you?”
This caused Darcy to stop and think about it. If he was really a fallen angel, what would she have him do? Then, she had it. “Summon me a chocolate milkshake with whipped cream and a cherry on top.”
This caused him to raise an eyebrow. “That’s how you ask me to prove my angelicness to you? A milkshake?” 
Darcy frowned. “Something wrong with that?”
Loki shook his head and held out his hand. Truth be told, he wasn’t entirely sure that his magic would work now that he was on Earth and his wings were gone. If he couldn’t summon anything, he would look like a major fool. Which, granted, wouldn’t be the worst problem he’d encountered, but still.
Low and behold, a chocolate milkshake appeared in his right hand, and he handed it to Darcy, who was dumbstruck.
“What the hell?!” She yelled, eyes wide. Maybe this guy wasn’t from the crackhouse. “How the hell?”
Loki chuckled. “From my realm, if you said that, they’d banish you.” 
Darcy, who had now grabbed the milkshake, rolled her eyes. “Yeah, well, this is the United States. First amendment, buddy.” 
That did nothing but confuse Loki, but Darcy didn’t even notice that he was confused. She was still focused on the fact that she had a frickin’ angel in her house. An angel! Her friend Jane would be all over this right now.
Loki shrugged. “I did try to tell you, in all fairness.” 
“Yeah, well, forgive me for not believing you! It’s not everyday that a bleeding fallen angel appears on your doorstep.” Darcy said with a roll of her eyes. “What are you even planning on doing here on Earth? It’s not a great place, I’ll tell you straight up. Especially America. We’ve got a lot of shit going on right now.” 
He scratched his neck. “I didn’t formulate much of a plan past getting out of there.” 
Darcy took a long sip of the milkshake. “Yeah, I get that.” She realized that the poor angel/guy was still halfway dressed in a weird, blood-stained gown. “Hey, do you want some clothes? I probably have something that will fit.”
Loki nodded. “That would be excellent, thank you, Darcy.” 
Okay, she could not have been getting butterflies from someone who literally fell from the sky. But she definitely was. Since when had her body ever listened to her?
She looked through her drawers and found one of her super-oversized shirts and a pair of sweatpants that one of her exes had left at some point. 
She went back into the living room and handed him the clothes. “Thank you.” 
“You’re welcome. Uhm, look, do you need a place to spend the night? I mean, it’s getting kinda late and I don’t want you to be wandering the streets. Especially if you’re not from… around here.” Darcy said. Great, go and offer him your home. That won’t be weird at all. Cohabitation with an angel.
He smiled. “I appreciate your hospitality, but I do not wish to be a burden on you. Surely such a beautiful woman has perhaps a… housemate? I do not wish to disrupt anyone else's realities more than I have here today.”
Housemate? And, hold on, did he just call her beautiful? “Ha! Nope, just me here.”
Loki tilted his head. “Well then, we must find a way for me to repay your hospitality…” 
She smirked. “Well, there is one thing I can think of, if you’re up for it.”
And that was the story of how Darcy Lewis fucked a fallen angel.

The Right Partner (Steve Rogers x Darcy Lewis Fanfic)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A/N: This fic was inspired by the song The Freshman by The Verve Pipe there will at least be a sequel to this fic. Give the song a listen and let me know what you think!
—————
Steve didn't couldn’t really pinpoint the exact moment where it had turned from friendship to more. He was just watching Darcy dance around the kitchen singing off key as she made cupcakes. He sighed and thought to himself “god I love her”. Then he immediately went to the gym and destroyed three punching bags.
Darcy had been dating Ian since Steve had known her. He knew she was head over heels for him but Steve didn’t get it. There was something about the guy that kept him uneasy. Like how he would sometimes look through Darcy rather than at her. He would pick at her for her quirks that should be cherished, like she was an embarrassment rather than a blessing, but Darcy loved Ian, so Steve kept his mouth shut.
He and Darcy were curled up on the couch one afternoon when she told him the news. 
“Hey Steve, can I tell you something?” Darcy asked with hesitation in her voice.
Steve paused the movie they were watching and turned towards her, her tone alerting him to the fact that she was about to say something serious. “Of course, Darce. You can tell me anything.” 
Darcy inhaled and Steve saw that her eyes had become teary. 
“So, I, uhh…” Darcy trailed off, muttering the last part of her sentence.
“I’m sorry, Darcy. I didn’t hear you, what?” Steve was frowning now. Darcy looked so small curled there on the couch, there had to be something wrong. 
“I think I might be pregnant.” Darcy blurted. 
Steve tried to hide the shock he felt and the pang of sadness that he wished she’d be having his child. He knew that was wrong to think but he couldn’t help it. 
He grabbed Darcy’s hand and squeezed. “Congrats Darcy. That is good news, right?” 
Darcy just shrugged and started chewing on her bottom lip. “I honestly don’t know. I haven’t told anyone but you. I’m scared to tell Ian.” 
Anger welled up in Steve’s chest, hot and fiery. He took a deep breath and tried to hide the fact that he was falling apart. “Why are you scared to tell him Darce?” 
Darcy was chewing on her lip anxiously now. He resisted the urge to reach out and smooth her lip with his thumb. 
“Well he’s always said he didn’t like kids, that they would be a burden to his career. And we’ve been dating over a year and we haven’t even taken the step to move in together yet. It’s just a lot at once and I don’t know, I’m overwhelmed.” 
Steve wrapped his arm around his girl—no, not his, not in the way he wanted. “Darcy, Ian loves you. I’m sure he’ll be overjoyed.”
Darcy perked up a bit at Steve’s confident tone. “You think?” 
Steve smiled, trying desperately to hide the fact that he was breaking inside. “Of course.” 
“Okay, okay. I can do this.” Darcy spoke. Steve wasn’t sure if it was to him or herself but her confidence seemed to be slowly reappearing so Steve didn’t question it. 
“I think maybe I should go talk to Ian. FRIDAY, is he still in the labs?” 
“Yes Miss Lewis, he is currently located in Lab 617 on the 61st floor.” 
“Thanks, J Man. And Steve—” Darcy bent to kiss his cheek, “thank you, you’re the best.” 
Steve didn’t get a chance to reply before she had entered the elevator. He raised his hand to his cheek as if he could still feel the warmth from her lips. And then his alert to Assemble went off. 
—————
He and the rest of the team had been gone for three days and by the time their mission was completed Steve was on edge.
He nor any of his team members had heard from Darcy, and either that was a good sign, she was so caught up in the excitement of expecting a child that she hadn’t thought to touch base with the team, or her talk with Ian hadn’t gone well and she was now facing her situation all alone. Steve didn’t know which outcome he was hoping for, a tiny piece of him hoped that Darcy would need him when he got back and he hated himself for it. 
Steve was brought back to the present when a firm hand landed on his shoulder. 
“Son of Rogers, what ails you?” Thor questioned. 
Steve shrugged “It’s nothing Thor, just worried about a friend.” 
“What I have heard from Sam, Barnes’ recovery is going well.” Thor responded, assuming that Steve was worried about his newly found best friend. 
Steve mustered up a smile for the god in front of him. “Buck is doing well, but that’s not who I’m worried about at the moment.” 
Thor nodded solemnly, sensing that Steve didn’t really want to go into detail. “Well if I could ever be any assistance to you all you must do is ask.” 
“Hey, Blonde Babes, we’re fifteen minutes out.” Clint yelled from the cockpit. 
Steve nodded solemnly and began to gather his gear. 
—————
Darcy felt like a fool, she wanted to die, just cry and cry until her body ran out of water and she wasted away. She also wanted to plan and execute Ian’s slow and painful demise. So needless to say she felt conflicted. 
She had locked everyone out of her room, even Jane, who had long since given up trying to break in, FRIDAY was a hell of a doorman. And she had inadvertently smashed her phone when she threw it in a fit of rage. After she calmed down she began to reflect on her current situation. 
Ian was an ass, and she should have seen it from the beginning. But she let herself get carried aways in the fantasy of what could be if she just gave it enough time. She knew for sure she was keeping the baby, Darcy had always wanted to be a mother, and was already growing fond of the infant inside her, even though she knew it was so early in the pregnancy.  
The fuzzy feeling of motherhood began to fade away as Darcy began to panic. When she had imagined being pregnant it had been different, she had someone who loved her there to support her. To hold her hair back when she had morning sickness, to rub her swollen feet and run out and get her weird craving food at ungodly hours. But she wouldn’t have that. She’d be all alone. 
FRIDAY roused her from her panic. “Miss Darcy, you asked me to notify you when the team landed.” 
Darcy stood, she wiped her face, hoping that no one would comment on her tear stained face. She practiced her smile in the mirror then sighed, it was watery but not terrible. She smoothed her hands over her jeans and bit her lip. It was now or never. 
—————
Steve’s face fell when he saw her. She was smiling but he knew it was a facade. He rushed to her then, engulfed her into a hug, forgetting to try to hide his feelings. 
“Hey, Doll. I missed you.” he whispered and his heart broke when he heard Darcy’s muffled sobs against his shoulder. He picked her up, her body immediately wrapping around him, as if she was holding on for dear life. He whispered to her, sweet nothings, trying hard to help her. He was also trying to hold back his rage but he would put a pin in that and come back to it later. Right now his girl needed him. 
Steve carried Darcy to her room, thankful that FRIDAY had opened the door so he didn’t have to let go of Darcy. She was still crying but her sobs had faded into small hiccups. He carried her to the couch and sat, holding her in his lap, not quite ready to let go of her quite yet. He rubbed her back hoping to soothe her. 
She muffled something into his shoulder and only then did her let some space between them. 
“What was that, Doll?” 
“I got your vest all wet.” she said apologetically. 
“Don’t worry about it. Do you want to talk about it?” Steve was afraid to ask but if Darcy wanted to talk about it he would be there to listen. 
She shrugged and looked down at her hands which had started to fidget with the buckles on his tac vest.  “Nothing much to talk about. I told him, he left me. And now here I am. alone.” Her voice broke on “alone”, another fresh wave of tears spilling down her cheeks. 
He wiped away her tears, despite the rage he felt his touch was gentle. “Darcy you’re never alone, you’ll always have me.” 
—————
A while later Steve finally went to get up. Darcy had cried herself to sleep an hour or so ago and since then he had just been sitting and thinking. Trying to keep himself from breaking every bone in Ian’s body. He sat on Darcy’s couch until he was sure that when he did get up to go visit Ian he would be able to keep his anger in check. 
As we went to leave he looked over at Darcy. She looked so small curled up the blanket resting under her chin. Steve knew knew no matter what happened he would be with Darcy every step of the way. She would not go through this alone. 
Although he told himself he wouldn’t kill Ian, he didn’t have a problem scaring the shit out of him. So Steve broke into his apartment, sat in the armchair facing the front door and waited. 
He didn’t have to wait long, Ian’s keys jingled in the door a mere fifteen minutes later. As Ian entered Steve flicked the lamp beside him on. He’d be lying if the high pitched scream the man let out didn’t make him smile. 
“What in the bloody hell are you doing in here?” Ian yelled. 
“I’m sure you can figure it out.” Steve snarked his voice dripping with hostility. 
Ian rolled his eyes then. “Did Darcy send you? To get you to intimidate me into allowing her to come back?” 
Steve griped the arms of the chair so hard that the wood groaned under his hands. He clenched his jaw, trying to hold his tongue. “I came here to tell you to stay away from Darcy. You didn’t deserve her and you won’t hurt her anymore.” 
Steve stood to go but the next words out of Ian’s mouth stopped him short. 
“It’s her own fault, I’m not responsible. She’s the one who fell in love in the first place.” 
Before Steve knew it his fist was connecting with Ian’s jaw. There was a loud crack and he felt the man’s bones crack under his knuckles. 
“If I see you near Darcy, hear that you’ve been trying to get in contact with Darcy, or if you even think about Darcy or her child, you’re a dead man.” All the venom he had felt for the Ian over the years leaked out into this one sentence. The man was on the floor, clutching his face, pale and shaking. “Do you understand?” 
Ian just nodded, eyes wide.
“Good.”

Undefeated
Jane Foster x Reader

Masterlist - Tag List
Written for my Year of Olympians and part of a bigger challenge being run by @yearofcreation2023 which features a ton of awesome creators and runs all year! Go check it out! And yay, after like two months of now writing I’m caught up just in time for June! 😅
Fandom: Marvel
Prompt: Ares; War
Summary: Darcy and her best friend, Y/N, are taking a night to party in between all the stressors that come with grad school, and doing so by absolutely DOMINATING at Beer Pong. When Darcy needs a substitute, however, it might lead to something more than a temporary team up between Y/N and Jane Foster.
Word Count: 2,520
Category: Fluff, Chaos
A/N: Listen, I don't know if anybody but me cares, but the rules of Pong simply do not work narratively for this fic, so for the sake of the story, there's no such thing as redemption or overtime.
Putting work into an AI program without permission is illegal. You do not have my permission. Do not do it.
I took a deep breath in and let it out slowly, fixating on my target and blocking out the noise and chaos around me. I took another deliberate breath in, then on the exhale, I took my shot.
Splash! My ping pong ball sailed through the air and landed smack dab in the middle of my opponent's cup.
"YES!" I screamed, punching my arm in the air jumping a few times to release the energy. My voice was almost gone from screaming all night, but I absolutely didn't care.
"LET'S FUCKING GO!" yelled my partner and best friend, Darcy Lewis, in my ear. My ears had been ringing for about an hour thanks to that combined with the music and talking of the party, but I didn't care about that either.
Darcy and I were in the middle of our last semester of grad school, and in the unique, rare period of the semester where we'd just finished a bunch of exams and papers for our midterms and didn't have to start studying or worrying about our finals quite yet. We had about a week of semi-peace for the whole semester, and like the rest of our classmates, we were using it to celebrate the fact that we were still in college to the extreme.
There was a lot more stress in grad school, so we deserved to overcompensate every once in a while with our parties.
I'd come into the night proudly boasting my undefeated undergraduate and graduate record in beer pong. With Darcy as my partner, I'd extended that streak to include winning against every single team that tried to challenge me tonight.
The competition had gotten seriously heated, with people rotating through either side of the table and people regularly challenging us like they were going to be the ones to finally take us down. We'd picked up a few people to act as refs, mostly for judging elbow distance and having the final decision on specific rules, and another few people had wandered over to start acting as commentators. Despite the fierce competition, it was all in good fun. We'd been laughing and cheering right along with everyone else all night.
And now, we were about to add another pair to our list of defeats. I'd just knocked out their second to last cup, and it was Darcy's turn. If she made it–which I knew she could–it would be game over.
I watched her take a deep breath and raise her arm, lining up her shot and getting in the zone the same way I had a second ago. She drew back, but before she could release the ball, a commotion from behind us distracted her.
"Darcy!"
She started to turn, looking confused as someone in the crowd called her name, and at the same time someone grabbed her wrist. She yelped, dropping the pong ball to the floor and glaring at the brunette who'd just come running up to her in a frenzy.
"Darcy!" cried the woman. "We have to go, right now! You're never going to believe what I just found-"
"Jane, I'm in the middle of something!" she yelled back, gesturing to the table before us. I just watched on, trying to process this new complication in maintaining our pong supremacy. Slowly, the pieces from various stories Darcy had told me came together. This must be Jane Foster, the scientist Darcy had been an assistant for and the reason she'd made a 180 from polisci to astrophysics.
"I'm sorry, Darcy, but I promise this is worth it. Come on-"
"Oh no, you're not going anywhere," I said, stepping in front of the two of them. Darcy grinned at me as I squared up against Jane, like she couldn't wait to see which of the two of us would prevail. I didn't know who she was betting on, but I knew for a fact it was going to be me.
"Who are you?" asked Jane, looking genuinely confused as she surveyed me. I straightened a little, suddenly uncomfortably aware that Jane was very, very pretty. I put it out of my mind, however, with a little help from our pong opponents across the table throwing their hands up at the unexpected interruption.
"Y/N Y/L/N," I said, going back to business as I squared my shoulders and stared down at Jane. "Darcy's best friend, and undefeated beer pong champion. And I need Darcy to take the last shot of the game so we can win and my streak can stay unbroken before you leave."
Jane looked like she was about to respond, but Darcy beat her to it.
"Actually, when Doctor Overenthusiasm here grabbed my arm, she tweaked my wrist," announced my championship-winning partner, not sounding half as distressed as she should've for the news she was giving me. "I don't think I can take the shot."
"What?" I cried. Darcy shrugged, I stared at her in horror, and Jane looked between the two of us, completely baffled.
"Why can't you just take the shot yourself?" Jane asked, at last settling on addressing me. I looked at her like she was crazy.
"I already took my shot!" I explained, gesturing to the table. "I got their second-to-last cup, and now, it's my partner's responsibility to get the last cup and win us the game."
"Hm," mused Jane, a slight frown creeping onto her face as she looked at the situation before us. "Well... can't you just postpone the game? Or call it off?"
"At this point? No way! We'd have to forfeit, which would mean losing my undefeated record."
Jane opened her mouth to reply, but on cue, the guys at the other end of the table beat her to it.
"Hey, what's the hold up? Take your shot and miss, Lewis, so we can finish this game once and for all!"
I looked grimly to Darcy. These guys had come the closest to beating us out of everyone tonight, and we only had one cup left standing on our side, too. If they made it to their turn again, the odds were more than likely that they'd win.
Suddenly, a brainstorm hit me like a bolt of lightning as I caught sight of Jane again. Maybe, just maybe, Darcy and I still had a hope after all.
I whirled back to the table, leaning forward (while being very careful not to upset our lone cup) and called across to our opponents.
"My partner just got injured! I want to use a celeb shot for her turn!"
The guys looked between each other, then back at me. A celeb shot meant bringing in someone else–a ''celeb'–to take a turn for us, even though they weren't technically on the team. Our various opponents had done it a few times throughout the night, but not the team we were playing now, and not in a game-winning scenario.
"Who?" demanded Chris, one of our current enemies, from across the table. I gestured to Jane, whose eyebrows immediately shot up into her hairline, but Chris' teammate Andrew jumped in before she could say anything.
"She's not a ringer, is she?"
I made a face, then looked from Jane back to Andrew.
"Honestly, man, I have no idea. I just met her ten seconds ago."
"Does Darcy know?"
We all turned to look at my best friend, and she just shrugged.
"As far as I know, Jane's never played pong in her life!"
"Hey!" All our attention shifted to Jane, and she suddenly seemed a lot less confident. Her cheeks picked up a cute red tinge. "Okay, I might not have... really played before. But still!"
Chris and Andrew shared a smile, then looked back at me. I frowned.
"It's alright with us!" Andrew called cheerfully. I scowled, then retrieved the ball Darcy had dropped when Jane grabbed her. I held it out to Jane, who very reluctantly took it.
"Do I really have to do this?" she sighed, staring at me with a raised eyebrow as we stood together at our end of the pong table. Darcy stood a few feet away, and I could see her familiar manic grin over Jane's shoulder.
"Yes," I decided.
"Why me?" she asked, sounding completely exasperated. "There are tons of other people here who could do it, and Darcy and I have to go-"
I waved off her suggestions. "I love most of these people dearly. They're friends and classmates who I enjoy going through life with, Chris and Andrew included. But right now, in this moment? I don't trust a single one of these motherfuckers not to miss on purpose and sabotage my perfect record. This is war, Jane."
She shook her head and scoffed, but I could see the undercurrent of nerves that had her holding the pong ball in a death grip as she surveyed the table before us. I hesitated for half a second, then stepped closer to her and wrapped one arm around her shoulders.
"Listen, Jane - you can do this. I know we don't really know each other, but Darcy talks about you all the time. If you can go toe to toe with SHIELD, you can channel a little beginner's luck and sink that ball in that cup."
She turned her head to look at me, giving me the barest hint of a smile.
"Darcy talks about you all the time, too. So far, everything's been very on-brand."
I laughed. "Thanks, I think. Here, let me give you a couple pointers, and then you can knock this out for me and Darcy."
I tried to ignore the way my heart sped up in my chest as I laid my arm over Jane's, holding the back of her hand and walking her through the motions of a good arc shot. I also DID NOT look at Darcy, because I knew she'd see through me in a second and then the teasing would be endless.
"Alright, that looks good," I finally said, stepping away and looking at Jane with a smile that hopefully conveyed my faith in her, and not any of the stress boiling in my stomach. "Just aim, release, don't let your elbow go over the table... and we're golden."
Jane took a deep breath and nodded, then turned her attention to her target. The lone cup on the far end of the table sat waiting, Chris and Andrew both hovering over it as the rest of the party-goers looked on. I held my breath as I watched Jane draw her arm back, then fling forward and throw.
Her elbow was clear, so my eyes snapped to the red plastic solo cup. I swear the whole room went absolutely silent as the ball flew through the air, then finally, landed in the cup with a splash.
"YES!" I screamed, jumping up and punching the air at the same time Chris and Andrew cried "NO!" and stared at the cup in disbelief. I laughed, delirious and disbelieving, and then without taking a second to think I turned to Jane, wrapped my arms around her, lifted her into the air, and kissed her straight on the lips.
A second later, my brain finally caught up, and I jumped away from her. I stared at Jane in wide-eyed shock and panic, all the rest of the noise from the party completely blocked out. She looked as surprised as I felt, her eyes staring at a point just past my shoulder and her hand trailing up to trace her lips.
"Oh my God, I am SO sorry!" I cried, shaking my head as I finally processed what I'd just done. What had I been thinking? "I got so excited about the win, I just- I have no idea what came over me. I'm so, so sorry-"
To my surprise, Jane actually began to smile. Her face and neck were bright red, but she broke out into a beaming grin and actually took a step towards me. I stared back at her, still in shock but for a much happier reason, and she tucked a piece of hair behind her ear and looked at me.
"Jane..." I started to say, butterflies absolutely exploding in my chest. She closed the distance between us a little further, then tilted her head like she was about to kiss me again. Before we could get any further, however, we were interrupted.
"So, the two of you, huh?" asked Darcy, popping up between us with a grin on her face. I loved her dearly, but right now, I wanted to kill her.
"Darcy-" Jane and I started at the same time, our faces matching looks of 'I love her but I'm going to kill her'. We cut off when we realized we were speaking in sync, made shocked eye contact, then looked away in mutual embarrassment.
"Okay, as much as I'm loving this," said Darcy, taking Jane's arm and pulling her a few steps towards the door, "you came in here screaming about urgent science, so we should probably get to that now."
Jane nodded, slowly coming out of her haze, pausing to smile at me again nonetheless as she and Darcy made their way across the room.
"Don't worry!" Darcy called back over her shoulder to me. "I'll send you her number so you can ask her on a date when we're done!"
I laughed out loud in pure joy at the ridiculousness of the moment as I waved at Jane and Darcy and they at last made their way out the door. Jane gave me one last beaming smile before she disappeared, and Darcy shot me a wink. I stared after them for a few moments, then got shaken out of my stupor as Chris and Andrew came over to congratulate me, both for my win and my possible new girlfriend.
I smiled and laughed the night away with them and the rest of my friends, but I couldn't keep my thoughts from regularly drifting back to Jane. It felt like Darcy had planned this, somehow, and if that was the case, I'd need to do something nice for her as a thank you.
I spent the rest of my night celebrating the preservation of my undefeated Pong streak while simultaneously mentally planning the perfect first date with Jane Foster. I'd been to a fair number of parties in my many years of collegiate education, but this had by far been the best.
