Victoria Hand: impressions of Skye, Jemma, Coulson. Any conversation with any of them?

Maya Hansen: thoughts on Extremis.

An original character of yours and a childhood memory or their view of a place that is important to them, even a street or similar that they travel often.

I really do need to catch up on Hand and Hansen, neither of which I've bumped into at all. Goes to work on original.

THANK YOU!!!

Kingdoms and Thorn fill: The Wind Who Knows My Name scribble_myname March 30 2015, 21:35:18 UTC
She used to have another name here. The wind seemed to whisper it through the whimsical hinged gate with its wrought vines and leaves. It seemed to rustle in the stiff, white curtains hanging in the window, through the roses trailing up the lattice, and over the uncut grass and barely tended flowers of the front yard.

Sierra.Her father never called her Whisper nor taught her to stand motionless near a house to listen to its silence ( ... )

Okay, off the top of my head have a bunch of prompts (because I can always prompt lol):

"Courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day that says I will try again tomorrow" - quote approximated from Mary Anne Radmacher according to google

it never rains but it pours

Douglas Adams: 'I love deadlines. I love the whooshing noise they make as they go by.' Dare you to interpret in the context of SHIELD, or any other beauracratic agency.

Just read this post about Steve's fighting style being similiar to Peggy's because she taught him, and she taught him to fight as a small opponent. What might Clint and Natasha's fighting styles have picked up from each other? Or any other mix of people who spar/train together ( ... )

Can't remember the ones I was going to post, but here are a few small things in case you might be able to use them (and because certain songs are on my brain thanks to my whole album challenge idea.)

By the rolling river is exactly where I was
There was no snake oil cure for unlucky in love
To be lonely is a habit like smoking or taking drugs
And I've quit them both, but, man, was it rough

~Jenny Lewis, "Acid Tongue"

Sometimes I wish I could find my Rosemary Hill
I'd sit there and look at the deserted lakes and I'd sing
And every once in a while I'd sing a song for you
That would rise above the mountains and the stars and the sea
And if I wanted it to it would lead you back to me
~First Aid Kit, "The Lion's Roar"

This old routine will drive you mad
It's just a mumble never spoken out loud
Sometimes you don't even know how you're still standing.
Well she looks at you now, and you see how.
Well you look at her now, and you know how.~First Aid Kit, "This Old Routine ( ... )

Thanks. I am feeling better than yesterday. Not great, not even good, but better.

MCU, anypair, they have a really random, non-combat-related skill or talent, and suddenly EVERYONE needs them to show it for some reason (e.g. really good cook, linguist, art historian,speed-reader, floral arranger...)

I keep trying to think of emergency needs for a whole-team flower arrangement.

Fury's birthday party? Hm... Maria's birthday party? :shakes head:

Thinking...

Pepper's birthday? And Tony is too afraid of repeating the Giant Bunny from IM3 to go with anything other than flowers? But the whole Billionaire Philanthropist blahdy-blah ego of his means he needs ALL the Avengers flower arranging... Dammit, now I want to write this fic! *curse you and your muses!* :P
