Darcy/Jan! How did I not know I needed this? This is adorable!

Adorably comfortable and hot Clint/Natasha.

It had been Pepper's idea, that they give fake names to the men who flirted with them, and while Natasha had been a little dubious at first, it was fun. Coming up with a persona that wasn't needed for infiltration, elaborating a back story without one eye always on a final goal: Lady Fiona Dashwood, she decided, was a little spoiled and quite giggly and thought that New York at Christmastime was so much more interesting than her family's Kentish stately pile. Pepper had come over all Katharine Hepburn, calling herself Susan Vance and putting on the accent to match. Pepper and Natasha: BFF HBIC WHO FIGHT CRIME.

Steve and Natasha and the evolution of their relationship via breakfast.

sabinelagrande
Pepper is curled up on her side, all the way on her end of the bed even though she's got the whole thing to spread out on; she must be hot, because the sheets are down around her stomach. She shifts, turning a little, and he stops, his brain shorting out for a second, because she's lying there wearing his tank top.
His one. Not anybody else's. Not hers. His. Sweet, hot Tony/Pepper.

Count the Rings Around My Eyes by

"You don't need me anymore. Why do you still care?" Bucky wasn't sure why he blurted that out—probably it was the sleep-deprivation and the exhaustion and the last, fading dregs of starvation. Maybe it was the sting of iodine on burnt flesh. But once he started talking, there was no stopping. His mouth ran on of its own accord. "You've always kind of been the best person ever—I was just...the only one who knew. Now everybody knows and what the hell do you need me for?"
"James Buchanan Barnes." Full name—Bucky was in trouble. "I know I call you an idiot a lot, but I want you to know that I've never really, truly meant it until this moment. You—are an idiot." Oh, Bucky. OF COURSE STEVE STILL LOVES YOU BEST. <333

Warm, sweet Pepper/Tony/Bruce for New Year's.

Five Avengers Darcy danced with and one she took home. exactly what it says on the tin. I especially like the Bruce and Tony sections, and that it ends with Steve/Darcy.

Bittersweet Steve/Bucky space AU.
if this is home by
Siria
Steve felt more frozen than he ever had under layers of Arctic ice, breath halting, heart stopping, because—no. No. He'd lost this. He'd never gotten to really have this, and there was a noise in his head, a dreadful roaring sound like the wind rushing in through a plane's shattered windows as the ground rushed up to meet him. But then he breathed in again and walked slowly, deliberately down the stairs, clinging to the bannister the whole way with one trembling hand; then he turned left and into the yellow-painted kitchen, where Peggy was standing and poking at a pot of what smelled like over-cooked oatmeal with a dubious expression on her face. Steve keeps waking up in the wrong place. Oh, Steve.
Lodestar by
legete
All he wants these days--apart from decent food and dry clothes and a sense of safety--is to hear Steve say he has plans for when they win this. In their bedrolls at night, they pull out their dreams and their hopes, worry-stones worn smooth and familiar over the months behind enemy lines, polish them up, release them into the air. Farms and bars and canyons spoken aloud; duty and friendship and desperate longing held back. And every time, Steve stays silent. Bucky, pining. *dreamy sigh*

Enjoyable Clint/Natasha spyjinks.
Operation Cindy Lou Who (Or How the Avengers Saved Christmas) by
grangerbutstranger
The Avengers save Christmas, and celebrate their first one together as a team, a little awkwardly. This is totally adorable.

Bucky and Steve, before and during the war. Oh my heart.

Really fun story about the Avengers learning to become a team.
Promise For Keeping (And Miles to Go) by

Rule 63 comicsverse Bucky! Steve and Bucky's jailhouse wedding, officiated by Namor, with Natasha facilitating! Adorable!
Robot Trip by
copperbadge
Cute story where Tony drives Dummy cross-country to New York, and Pepper makes Steve accompany them to keep them out of trouble. It works. Mostly.
say it like you mean it by
nessismore
Darcy says "I love you" a lot and Steve has to figure out how she means it. Sweet look at the relationship developing between them.
Snow Is Falling (Like Forgiveness From The Sky) by
torakowalski
Bucky leans further into Steve's side and closes his eyes. He's shivering. Cautiously, Steve lifts his arm and wraps it around Bucky's waist, squeezing carefully.
"You always hold me like I'm gonna break," Bucky complains. "You know, I'm pretty much indestructible."
"Not to me," Steve says, nonsensically. He wants to ask how Bucky would like to be held, but even thinking it makes his heart pound too hard. Really lovely first kiss for Steve and Bucky, after the heat goes off at the tower and they have to huddle a little for warmth. <3
so nice to come home to by

Steve's having a rough day. Bucky brings home a dog. ADORABLENESS ENSUES. <3
the way the guillotine wears gravity by

50s boarding school AU where Steve is an art history teacher and Bucky is his irresistible student. Lovely and melancholy, with a happy ending where I was braced for tragedy.

A Very Captain America Christmas by
Amy
It was Steve's first Christmas since everything. And it was funny; he could deal with the big things just fine- having been frozen in the arctic for a normal human's entire lifespan; waking up seventy years in the future; defeating a bunch of aliens led by a god trying to take over the planet. Those were so big and overwhelming that they were a complete shock to the system, forcing him to reimagine everything he knew. It was the small things he couldn't quite handle. Steve discovers the Captain America Christmas special. And Natasha gives him the best gift of all. I draw a million sparkly hearts around this story.
When I feel down, I want you above me by
lanyon
In the twenty-first century, Steve Rogers still has inordinate difficult talking to women, or men, or anyone with a pretty face. Tony Stark suggests that he try calling a phone sex line. Under the influence of severe exhaustion, he does just that. He has no explanation for why he keeps calling, though. and of course, the operator he talks to is BUCKY. <333
when time takes too much time by
beardsley &
haipollai
AU where Steve is an artist and Bucky is a writer and together they make comics. <3 Only one story so far up on AO3, but a bunch of ficlets are on tumblr.
