fic: a brighter future (for us) - steve/tony

This is what I wrote for auexchange:

Title: a brighter future (for us)
Fandom: MCU
Pairing/Characters: Steve/Tony
Rating: Teen
Word Count: 3187
Summary: A visit and an offer sets Steve and Tony on a new path.

gift work: new beginnings (kimberly/tommy)

pine4pine revealed their collection recently and I got two gifts! This is one of them:

Title: New Beginnings
Author: capsquared
Fandom: Power Rangers
Pairing/Characters: Kimberly/Tommy
Rating: Teen
Word Count: 1048
Summary: Tommy and Kimberly's friends take matters into their own hands to force them to have a conversation.

I'm always excited to get fic for my original OTP and this was so sweet! I love the idea of their friends pushing them together (such a fun trope) and it was just lovely to see them finding their way back to one another. :D

gift work: want you when things go wrong (steve/tony)

This is the other gift I got from pine4pine:

Title: want you when things go wrong
Author: ishipallthings
Fandom: MCU
Pairing/Characters: Steve/Tony
Rating: Teen
Word Count: 3410
Summary: “You’re bleeding.” Steve registers the flatness of the man’s voice before he recognizes it, and then suddenly his heart is thundering in his chest because that’s—that’s Tony’s voice.
(In which Steve gets hurt at a charity event, and Tony’s reaction is extremely revealing.)

This was delightful! Pining!Steve + protective!Tony = excellent combo and I loved every word of it. And there's a first date too, which made it even better. :)
