And on a slightly more cheerful note, I found an amazing fic written by [livejournal.com profile] fickery which was just posted today.

fandom: Marvel Cinematic Universe, Arrow (TV, 2012)
title: Who Run The World
summary: Lyla Michaels and Maria Hill meet for drinks to bond over the pressures of running a black-ops government agency and being awesome badasses.

This is amazing. AH. MAY. ZING. If you know anything about Arrow and the MCU then you must go read it. Seriously. I don't watch Arrow, but this was AWESOME.

It's just a couple of women discussing the insanity of their lives, dealing with superheroes (day and night, vigilantes and avengers), love lives, family, and so forth, along with a call from the President. (I loved the call from the President.) It's the competence, the easy way they talk to each other - the kind of writing that shows you everything you need to know without having to shove it in the reader's face. Subtle writing, the likes of which is far too infrequently seen in my segments of fandom.

Go forth and read. If you like my stuff, I'm pretty sure you'll like this.
