pretend it's not monday

Sunday Six, a day late. And since the canon meld in the Clint/Coulson is making my brain hurt, I let it go play with the post-rolling stone Steve/Natasha that's been knocking around for a while now.



Steve’s in the tiny kitchenette of his extended-stay hotel when the call comes through from the SHIELD dispatcher. Her voice is even but not unkind as she says, “I have a medical alert for Captain Rogers. Patching through Agent Coulson upon ID validation.”

“This is Rogers,” Steve says, his half-made sandwich abandoned as he gives the proper codes and responses. Coulson and Hawkeye were out on a SHIELD op; if Coulson is calling Steve in, it can’t be good. Steve has seen Hawkeye brush off multiple broken bones and stitch counts that number in the dozens without letting alerts go out.

And you would explain the arrow necklace how? ;-)

I'd.... go with it being something that he gave her early on to remind her that somebody had her back (and she gave him something after Loki, to say the same thing.) Either that or payoff for a bet she lost, and he picked it to be super-gossip-worthy, and as much as she rolls her eyes at it, she secretly loves watching SHIELD-types notice it and be too afraid to make a comment.

OR. OT3. :D

OT3 is always a wonderful answer to the issue, :D
