#hydrahusbandssummer2023

[hydra-husbands]

Hello everyone! I decided to create this account separately from my main ( @rip1009) because I wanted for a long time now to attempt to bring to the fans some small events and keep the fun going for us #hydrahusbands fans.

Soooo....

Here is my first ever try at this, a summer fun event!

Hydra Husbands Summer Event 2023

What is it about?

Starting with June 20, 2023 until September 1, 2023, we let our imagination flow and use the summer with vacation, fun and mayham as inspiration for writing stories, fanfiction, drawings, comic panels, music videos, edits, meta, playlist, poems, manips, AUs, incorrect quotes, any kind of creation we love and can create.

You can post the content on Tumblr and use the tag #hydrahusbandssummer2023 and/or tag @hydra-husbands

You can also submit the work as anonymous if you wish so.

For all kind of questions feel free to inbox me here or on @rip1009

Some guiding lines that might help :)

2. Can I write HTP?

You can, just tag the work accordingly.

3. Can I write in my main language?

Re : team integration and assignment

Agent Rumlow,

After some discussion, we have chosen to combine the remaining members of STRIKE Beta with another recently depleted team, rather than divide either small group. Due to your exemplary work as SIC and the leadership shown in pulling the surviving team out with the objective, you will be given command of the new STRIKE unit.

As much of the proposed team is awaiting medical clearance, you have been temporarily seconded to Agent Coulson's surveillance project. Further instructions will come from him directly.

Re : New arrivals

A number of new agents will be integrated into Area 5 over the next week. As with other non-core integrations, they will be handled entirely separately from yourselves or each other. This is NOT an encouragement to attempt to identify, contact or place bets on them! Simply a reminder to contact me directly before moving on a "suspicious target" and strictly restrict the use of lethal force to sanctioned individuals.

Thank you for your continued professionalism.

-Phil Coulson, SHIELD

Re : no more candy striping

So, good news/bad news… Bad news is that I'm gonna be officially in charge of all you useless fucks once everyone clears medical. The Bosses are adding to the team rather than splitting us up, and I get to sign all the reports instead of just writing them for that fuckwad Stein, may he rest in peace cause I sure don't want him back.

Good news is that I'm not sitting on my thumbs anymore waiting for you slackers to get off your asses, and got sent on surveillance instead. And without talking out of turn I can tell you that I'm working in a god damned tourist trap. Got fucking fake credentials for a job I'm overqualified for because "I'm a damned Navy SEAL, yeah I can teach that" would break character.

Anyway, point is, you slugs gotta find someone else to bring you treats and books like some sort of high security clearance door dash, and I'm not sorry I had to leave too fast to say goodbye in person.

Re : might not be buying the drinks

So in my continuing saga of "the undercover assignment that might be a stealth vacation or possibly a weird internal psyop" the area of the resort under construction finally opened, which means I may lose my bet that this is about money laundering. Say "la vie," I guess, but it's actually really nice looking. Will definitely check it out in a couple of days when the initial crush dies down.

Actually, that could be the thing that makes me blow my cover - "resort town slacker local with rich parents" isn't usually hard to keep up, but I don't know how well I can fake incompetence when some college kid with a 2 week certification gives me the "safety training" this new attraction requires.

Anyway, no I continue to have no beach and/or snow bunnies, I'm on assignment, no matter how vague. Hope everyone's doing well, congratulations on the physical therapy milestone, Murphy!

Hydra Husbands Summer Event 2023 -Submission|| Story-

I have received on @rip1009 an anonymous submission and here it is ♥

Thank you so much to the anonymous person who reached out and submitted it!

Enjoy reading it as much as I did!

The night they met, Jack surrendered himself on a colourful array of charges. None of them would stick, in the end, and Jack already knew they wouldn’t. He may or may not have been guilty as sin, but his lawyers were too well paid, his men too good at tying up loose ends for him to go down like that. The night was also too damn fucking hot and humid, like most every summer night in the sorry southern shithole Brock got himself stuck in was.

It was the kind of night that made him long for the crisp Jersey winters he never appreciated enough as a kid. Though for the moment, he’d gladly have settled even for his crappy apartment with the too loud ac unit, a nice cold bath and colder beer. Really, anything other than six more hours of being stuck behind brick walls smelling of wet earth, of rot, of a hundred years of misery.

So Brock was in a mood that could’ve been better, and so he said it without even really looking up from the crossword puzzle section of the newspaper. Said “you better take your fucking clothes off quick, you piece of shit,” at the sound of bars rattling shut, the electric lock clicking into place. The colleague who escorted their new arrival to intake coughed at the words. Not very inconspicuously, but it did prompt Brock to look up.

When he did, Brock wished he could just punch himself in the teeth. Everyone ‘round these parts knew of Jack Rollins, wealthy heir to the local liquor business and allegedly so very deeply entangled in all kinds of criminal enterprises, just like his daddy and his daddy’s daddy before him had allegedly been. What the rumor mill had left out, though, was how breathtakingly handsome Rollins was. Tall, all striking facial features and piercing green eyes, and well built on top of it.

And, Christ, if there ever was a train of thought Brock needed to shut down hard, it was this. He wasn’t the type to delude himself into thinking he was one of the good guys. He thrilled at the thought of getting his knuckles bloody in a good, old-fashioned bar fight. He wasn’t above accepting a bribe when a guy wanted to smuggle in a hooker instead of his wife. He could be hella vindictive and wait and wait forever like a coiled up snake for a chance at revenge.

But he’d never looked at an inmate like that, and Rollins probably could arrange to have Brock killed with a snap of a finger, and so he really shouldn’t start with that shit now. Rollins didn’t seem bothered, not by Brock’s words, not by the situation at large, though. If anything, he looked momentarily bemused before his features smoothed into something deliberately neutral and harder to read. He complied without fussing, did just as he was told.

Took of every piece of jewellery and all his expensive clothes, quickly and efficiently. Asked, with the tiniest hint of a smirk on his lips, then, “Was that quick enough for your liking, Officer? Do you want me to squat and cough now?” And for all that it was Rollins who had to endure the humiliation that was intake, Brock had maybe never felt quite so exposed.

He hoped the barked “yeah, damn right that’s what I want, smart ass,” was enough to cover for the way his voice almost caught in his throat. Rollins complied with that, too. His smile, once he was showered and dressed in cheap white and ugly orange, as he held out his wrists to be cuffed, was genuine and charming and bright. “Y’know, officer,” he said,

he said, “it’s been a while since someone spoke with me the way you just did. Brash. Uncowed. Not even the lawyers who so desperately try to paint me as this sinister monster of a mob boss dared to. I’m charmed. I really am.”And Brock desperately tried to lie to himself, to pretend like he wasn’t hella charmed right back.

Before summer’s end, Jack’d be not only set free, but vindicated in the eyes of the law. Public apology and all. The law and justice may overlap at times but are far from the same after all. Brock, under threat of being denied his dose of mourning coffee, on the other hand, will concede that summer may not be the worst after all. Not when he gets to wake up to the songs of the cicadas in the marshes, wrapped up in Jack’s arms under the softest of sheets.

Re : your fucking creepy interest in my personal life

Jesus, I know you're all bored, but ask the nurse doing the sponge bath for a Happy Ending if you're this hard up! And no, I was not implying I felt her up, this was at work not some sleazy club dance floor like you shitheads meet your hookups. Just didn't feel the need to disassociate while fitting and adjusting harness straps.

Anyway, she came back this week, turns out she's a local with resort privileges, not a guest. And she loves this place, so I'll probably see her again. Which, totally not complaining. 

I would give you more details, but you assholes don't deserve them, and I'm still pissed you thought I would sexually harass a customer, so fuck off and work on getting medical clearance.

Re : NOT a bunny

I still don't have a beach/snow bunny, but if I ever see her outside the attraction, I'd probably suggest a drink. 

To try to cover all the questions, I don't actually know a name to tell you, everyone is "in character" for this adventure you're supposedly on. We'll call her Robin to keep it simple. Dark hair and eyes, athletic build, southern european heritage, probably? 

Saw Robin again on my second visit, might have been a little flirty this time but not inappropriate. I just don't wanna be that guy that harasses someone when they have to be friendly for work. Especially when people can get intimidated by me…

Anyway, someone started a new pool on whether some outside problem will make everyone break cover before this op gets resolved and if so, what. I'm torn between putting money on a geographically appropriate natural disaster and an alien attack. What do you think?

Re : Wishing Coulson would spy on my emails

This entire assignment is bullshit. Sure we don't always get told the "why"s of our missions, but with STRIKE I know what the mission is! I'm supposed to be on surveillance, but who am I surveilling? Just keep an eye on the area. What am I on the lookout for? Oh, just stay alert to your surroundings. What the fuck makes this area even of interest? That's classified! Yeah, that's right, not only am I not looking for anyone or anything specific, I can't even know the most general of reasons to be here. Fuck every compartment of this organization.

*deep breathing exercises from the shrinks* Okay, pissbaby rant over. Dream Customer (henceforth D.C.) has been back a few times now, and the most recent visit she was in the attraction when another customer fucked up. It's an indoor underwater setup, which is your only identifying info and I WILL be checking you fuckers' search histories, so be good. Anyway, some dumb fuck tried to get into an area they obviously shouldn't have and snagged their hoses. Genius, huh? Unfortunately, we aren't allowed to let fuckheads die with the consequences of their actions, so I had to go sort it out before there was an insurance hassle.

But when I got to him, D.C. was there, stopping him from moving and fucking up his gear any more, AND had managed to hold the tube in place temporarily. Fucking rockstar, she saw what I wanted to do with the emergency mask right away and helped get him untangled so I could pull him out easier. Of course, then I was stuck dealing with the asshole and paperwork on him for the rest of the shift, but I am officially fucking head over heels guys, I cannot deal with this level of competence along with looks and a decent personality. 

But of course, since I don't have any idea who the damned people of interest even are on this fucked up op, I can't actually risk asking her out for a drink, because she might end up being someone we move on! So, we're back to fucking SHIELD in all available configurations.

Glad to hear Lee's follow up procedure went well, but only because it brings me one step closer to escaping this mindfuck of an assignment. Get well soon, or else.

Re : wow

Had some excitement at the attraction, which I really do like and am not just stalking Robin. (More excitement than this so called assignment, I'll tell you that.) 

So it's a caving adventure of sorts (I think there's enough of those not to be accidentally identifying) and the crew gears everyone and makes them demonstrate skills before they go in (that's where I usually see Robin, though sometimes they switch roles around.) But someone ahead of me got tangled up and then made it worse panicking.

I pressed the panic button on the gear and was keeping him from flailing while trying to figure out how someone was gonna get him out without injury (it was in a narrow section) when the whole wall opened up and Robin was right there with an emergency kit.

And okay, I already liked her, even though I didn't know how much was the whole public facing persona, but we've moved up to a whole other level now. She just took charge instantly, gave quick clear directions in a really chaotic situation, and had the guy clipped to an emergency line and out of there in literal seconds. Stone cold professional in what was probably the first crisis at the attraction. I gotta ask her out, this is no longer optional.

Oh, and I put down my money on "morlocks/mole men/other underground uprising" in the new pool, cause I figured it wasn't any less likely than alien invasion but I would be one the only ones on it if it won.

Re : Just this once.

Since your clearance increase from being made a STRIKE Commander has gone through, and having no contacts on this mission is clearly more stressful than we anticipated, I am giving you access to the level three briefing.

To summarize, we have reason to believe that this area could be subject to an extra-human instigated attack in the next three months. To avoid panic or excessive non-SHIELD interest, prestaged assets have been infiltrated rather than stationed in a temporary compound, and it has been presented as a surveillance operation to everyone below command level.

You can therefore consider yourself on standby, and do not need to be any more suspicious than your norm of local humans. (Continue to report suspected extra-humans through the normal channels.)

Thank you for your continued professionalism.

Re : this is why you aren't in infiltration

Not one of you fuckers is even a little subtle, and that is only one of the reasons NONE OF YOU is going to be my god damned SIC when we're back in action. The others have to do with team integration and if you shit for brains had the command training to understand that, I might have considered you.

Seriously, I get any more private emails on the new fucking team command structure, the sender gets all latrine duties for our next field mission. 

Also, no, I'm not telling you details of the cover job that could identify the location, dammit it's like none of you whiny jerkoffs works for a secret government organization! You get the details I feel like giving and fucking thank me for the entertainment while you waste all our tax dollars faking your injuries for more morphine.

But no, I'm not dealing with kids, because the "attraction" I'm working at is dangerous enough to be adults only, health questionnaires and waivers, all the fucking hoops. I don't do that part, but it makes my life significantly less shitty than it could be if I had to try to teach fucking snot nosed brats and adventure seeking grannies this stuff. Most of them are fairly fit, really.

Actually, one today was EXTREMELY fit, in a way that made helping with her equipment damn fun, if ya know what I mean. Picked up the training really well too, definitely a job perk of a customer.

Doubt I'll get too many like that, though, so make sure you lazy fucks get on your PT so I can get out of this place.

Re : Thanks for the good news!

Glad to know we won't be broken up, and that this assignment will end at least for me. (No promises for the operation as a whole, as no one even knows what the objective is.)

In other news, I got to check out the new attraction and it's actually fantastic. Without too much identifying info, it's the kind of thing that is just stress and danger if it comes up in the course of a mission, but they've made it feel just dangerous enough to be an accomplishment and make the gorgeous payoff even better. 

Speaking of gorgeous, my training did not come from a college student, but an extremely professional but friendly grownup who obviously had years of practical experience. A+ gear up experience, will be hoping for the same crew next time. And there will definitely be a next time.

Decided to leave my bet on the money laundering since the cancellation penalty they've worked out is too high to be worth changing it, but I'm considering some side bets on specific people's involvement in WHATEVER. Will keep you updated.
