30 Day OTP Challenge - Maria Hill/Steve Rogers (Avengers)

[tielan]

Masterpost

1. where the river runs into your keeping: Nearly six hours later, Steve realises he’s jealous. Of a slap. Given by Maria Hill. (holding hands)


2. Infirmity And Insanity: Probable concussion. The perfect moment. And the embarrassment of mementos. (cuddling)


3. The Negotiator: Relationships require negotiations. Although probably not like this. (gaming / watching a movie)


4. Unnoticed, Underestimated, Unpredictable: This is a different kind of date with a different kind of man. (on a date)


5. Love And Other Disasters: He's kissed women before. This kiss is not like those. Maria doesn't take, but she definitely expects. And Steve discovers he likes fulfilling her expectations. (kissing)


6. The Shirt End Of The Stick It occurs to Maria that her mentors have always encouraged her to break out a little – possibly because she needs no encouragement to stick to the rules. (wearing each others' clothes)


7. Second Place: "So, you’re basically cosplaying cosplayers," Stark said when he heard about the mission. (cosplaying)


8. Sugar And Spice: 'Play nice', Steve said, only half-joking. But Maria's not 'nice' and never has been. (shopping)


9. Women Who Aren't Nice And The Men Who Love Them: "We're not nice women, you know," Peggy said. "I know, you thought I was when we met. But nice women didn't go into military intelligence back then, Steve." (hanging out with friends)


10. What Happens In Vegas: Fury calls it "cultural acclimatisation with an eye to not levelling cities". Maria calls it "babysitting duty". (with animal ears)


11. The More Loving One: There have been moments since that night out with Clint, Natasha and the other agents – and particularly since the night in Vegas – when Steve feels a little like Maria Hill's dirty little secret. Sleeping with a fellow S.H.I.E.L.D. agent is perfectly acceptable, but fucking an Avenger? No, Maria wouldn't do that. (Wearing kigurumis)


12. Some Of Us Hover While We Weep For The Other: The prince ends up with the princess - that's how it works in all the fairytales, right? He doesn't end up with the bitch - and Maria's never been anything but the bitch. (Making out)


13. Gathered Contrasts: Steve wants to draw her like this – half-dressed, working, eating – intimate and aloof, professional and sensual, focused and casual, exquisitely beautiful and utterly businesslike – all the contrasts of Maria Hill gathered into a single pose. (Eating ice cream)
