I'm loving the Maria-centric fic that's coming out of the woodwork after CA2:TWS! And I'm hoping there'll be more of it in future with her presence in AoS and A2:Age of Ultron...

laughter is the best medicine – sweetwatersong
Five times Sam Wilson has a good laugh, and one time Maria Hill has the last one.
Male-Female friendship. Maria Hill and Sam being excellent and solid not-friends, with no sex. How can this be anything but awesome? (Clue: it is totally awesome.)

Safe House by alphaflyer
After Washington, trust is in short supply; Maria Hill does not open her doors for just anyone.
Again, male-female friendship, this time with Maria and Clint post-Cap2, and with a touch of Clint/Natasha.

Inauguration by zelos
Someone has to keep the pieces together, and it sure as hell wasn't Stark.
There's a lot of compartmentalisation, the general inclusion of the Avengers, and practicality in this one. And apparently sequels to come! It's all good.

toppling the card tower (that was S.H.I.E.L.D) by littlesnake
Everything goes to pieces, but no one picks them up. They just learn to live with the shards, jagged edges and all that.
A fic that addresses what was most probably at least a friendship between Maria Hill and Jasper Sitwell, and does really well at characterisation of Maria.

Unfortunately (for me), there was no new Steve/Maria last I checked (Saturday night), but that's not entirely surprising. It's never going to be popular, although it seems that CA2 has generated a little more interest in it.

I was watching TWS, and at least one of my internal fistpumps was for you. SO MUCH MARIA, AND SHE WAS AWESOME! :P

Reblogged on tumblr, and I read all the fic! I was surprised I hadn't run across any of them. :D
