Furry Peppermint Christmas by Paraxdisepink
Steve has a hard time figuring out what to get Bucky for Christmas. Sweet and hot and a little melancholy.

How Do I See You by bluflamingo
Natasha introduces Pepper to Clint during their night out. I love Pepper and Natasha becoming friends and this is lovely.

I've Been Careless With a Delicate Man by Paraxdisepink
Steve lets SHIELD think he and Bucky are boyfriends so they'll let him into Bucky's hospital room. He's surprised at how okay Bucky is with that. Aw boys. Adorable.

The One You Love by TsaritsaElena
Bucky takes care of Steve, then and now. Aw, heart.

Remember Pearl Harbor; Purl Harder by greenjudy
"I'm not an engineer," Steve said. "I'm a sock knitter. You know? Knit, purl, increase, decrease. This—this is not a sock." He jammed the stitches down the circular needle and tossed the snarl of pewter-colored yarn onto the coffee table.

"Looks okay," Tony said. "Oh. Wait. Not okay."

"Aw, knitting, no," Clint said. Steve runs into a problem in his knitting. Luckily, Bruce is there to bail him out. This is adorable.

Silver Bells by AlphaFlyer
Clint & Natasha have to go undercover married - with a BABY - at Christmastime, to help rescue some kidnapped kids. Lovely and sweet without being cloying.

Snow Day by Traincat
"What are you doing?" Carol demanded. The Hulk narrowed his eyes at her.

"Finding Spider-Woman," he growled. Carol threw her hands up.

"I'm doing that already!" she said. The Hulk scowled, then set one huge hand on top of Carol's head and, very gently, rumpled her hair.

"Team up," he said. Shocked and frozen halfway through pushing his hand off her head, Carol couldn't really think of an argument.

As far as backup went, the Hulk wasn't exactly a bad choice. Jessica disappears. Carol and Hulk team up to find her. This is adorable.

Such stuff as dreams are made on by Odsbodkins
Steve and Bucky get trapped in a shared hallucination where they're boyfriends. Then they wake up and have to deal with the consequences. Aw, boys.

Their Brave New World by the_wordbutler
Steve and Bucky take a road trip. Adorable.

'til morning comes, let's tessellate by girl0nfire
Super hot Steve/Bucky/Natasha.

tired eyes on the sunrise, waiting for the eastern glow by halfmoonsevenstars
Really lovely Rule 63 Steve/Bucky.

who run the world by coffeesuperhero & shadowen
Natasha puts together a team of lady badasses to find out who is causing some mysterious explosions. Featuring Sif, Carol, Kate, and Pepper being awesome.

your hair was long when we first met by starkly
The scissors glint on the bathroom counter, a sharp silver that matches the spiral binding of Steve's notebook and the smooth surface of Bucky's arm. Natasha picks them up carefully, and Bucky finally opens his eyes, staring at their reflection in the mirror.

"How short?" she asks, and Bucky only shrugs a shoulder.

"Short," he says, and Natasha glances at Steve. Steve nods, waiting for Natasha to start trimming Bucky's hair before going back to his drawing. Natasha gives Bucky a haircut while Steve sketches them. OT3 feels abound. *happy sigh*

Really well done Steve/Bucky/Buffy, which is not a threesome that would have ever occurred to me, but it really works in this story.

The Hunger Games

How Rue Became the Mockingjay by aimmyarrowshigh
Exactly what the title says. Katniss, Peeta, and Thresh plot to keep Rue alive. *sobs*

There's Another River on the Other Side by Mithrigil
"I'm sorry," she says, to the cameras and eyes above her, and wipes away her tears so she can look back. "I'm sorry Peeta, and I'm sorry Prim, and I'm sorry Mister Haymitch, and I'm sorry District Twelve. I love what I know of you. And I thank you. But I'm going to win." The mockingjay pin is between the bones that hold her shoulders to her neck. She covers it with her hand, and swears. "I'm going to win." Thresh and Rue win the Hunger Games. Revolution follows. Stunning and heartbreaking AU. Yes, it would happen just like this.

Sleepy Hollow

Blue Plate Special and a slice of pie by seren_ccd
Five times Abbie and Ichabod visited the diner. Lovely.

enough to go by by kaydeefalls
"Seven years' bad luck, right?"

That's what Crane had told them right at the beginning. Seven years of trials and tribulations, or some shit like that. Time's just about up. And the intervening six years and eleven months have drawn sharp lines across Abbie's face, honed her smooth skin and gentle curves down to pure sinew and muscle and bone. Abbie and Jenny have a tense reunion at the end of the world. Lovely.
