Title: Let Me Guess
Author: marcicat

Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 1900

Characters: Felicity Smoak, Thea Queen

Warnings: mentions of drug use and addiction

Summary: Felicity’s still not sure how Laurel’s business trip led to Thea hanging out in her office.

Author’s Note: I’m torn between my immense dislike for the events that take place on Arrow, and my immense love for the show’s supporting characters.

Title: Unconventional Rescue
Author: marcicat

Word Count: 1000

Summary: Natasha stages a rescue, prompted by Tony, or possibly JARVIS. Inspired by these.

Title: Singing in the Light, Laughing in the Dark

Author: marcicat
Wordcount: 50,085
Rating: R (for thematic content)

Fandoms: Bourne movies (including Bourne Legacy), I Am Number Four (movie!verse), Marvel!verse (including Spiderman & the Avengers, mentions of F4 & X-teams), brief cameo appearance by characters from my former nano novels (hi Sabri and PJ!)

Author's Note: Basically, I'm incapable of writing anything without everything taking place in the same universe -- the one where everyone is neighbors and everything turns out okay.

Title: Five Times Flash (Thompson) Met The Avengers
Author: marcicat

Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 5900

Author’s Note: Inspired by The Amazing Spiderman (movie) and, of course, the Avengers (movie), though I couldn’t resist adding in the ‘Phil Coulson as Peter Parker’s high school principal’ concept from the 2012 Spiderman animated series.


( Getting called to the front office was generally considered a Bad Thing. He couldn’t even think of anything he’d been caught at recently, which might mean it was nothing. (It was hardly ever nothing.) )

Title: a walk in the park
Author: marcicat

Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 9250

Summary: First there is jogging, then explosions, then everyone sort of wonders what's happening. Eventually, Pepper gets it all sorted.

Author’s Note: Loosely follows look to the sky for love, warn the neighbors, and howling down the moon. Bucky’s a telepathic werewolf, because that is a seriously handy plot device. Also, the Avengers are awesome, and I like fics with kids in them.

( She should have guessed, really, that something would go wrong. There was probably a flowchart about these things hanging somewhere in the SHIELD building. )

From May/June 2011

Title: Send Somebody
Author: marcicat

Word Count: 5400
Rating: PG-13

Note: This story takes place in an alternate version of season 6, and loosely follows Ex-Spooks, Guns, and Money (send them all, there’s a party in Miami). It assumes Sam came back from hell right away, with soul firmly in place. Cas made a more triumphant return to heaven and is the de facto leader of the angels; Raphael and Crowley are still around, but without the power base they have in the show.

Instead of a pitched battle between Castiel and Raphael for the souls of Purgatory, there’s a much more fragmented scramble for the souls of Earth, including not just angels and demons, but also the pagan gods and goddesses — who decided that if God wasn’t going to show up for his own apocalypse, he was unlikely to quibble over a few souls.

(Also, Sam has a kitten.)

More Notes: Profound Bonds: Dean/Cas, Sam/Gabriel, and I’m certainly partial to the Michael/Jesse/Fiona for maximum adorableness, but if we’re talking about sex, there isn’t any in this story.

From December 2011

Title ~ Look to the sky for love (look to the stars for light)
Author ~ marcicat

Fandom ~ Avengers movie!verse (sort of)
Word Count ~ 3000

This is a story about Darcy Lewis and Bucky Barnes, because they are both clearly awesome, and yet are unlikely to show up in the Avengers movie. Really, I figure it's a good thing I'm not in charge of the movie, or else it would be all hoodies and accidentally getting transformed into kittens, and the whole "summer blockbuster" thing would be more like a summer block party with occasional superhero cameos.

Also, this story and canon are like ships that pass in the night -- they might be in the same ocean, but that's about it.

( She knew who he was, of course. Everyone knew that. )

From Feb/March 2012:

Title: Howling down the moon (aka dinner and a movie)
Author: marcicat

Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 4450

Note: Inspired by the ‘Psychic Wolves for Lupercalia’ challenge, though it doesn’t really fit the requirements. Loosely follows ‘Look to the sky for love,’ set in an Avengers movie-type universe that includes Bucky Barnes, plus the irresistible "extra" Avengers from Earth's Mightiest Heroes.

( There was surprisingly little downtime as a member of the Avengers Initiative )

The Badger Fic From January:

Three (3) reasons why this fic was written:

1. because I thought to myself, "it's January, I should write something"

2. because badgers are internet famous, yo

3. because everyone should have the chance to use the line "It really *was* a robot head" at some point
