Summary
When Dora finds out that her careful, difficult, unwavering goodness doesn't make her loveable like she thought it would--that, instead, it just makes her forgettable--only the fact that she's not big enough yet to survive on her own keeps her from running away that very day.

Wow. This POV was heartbreaking and yet I also feel convicted. May I never forget to love the quiet, non-squeaky wheels in my life just as much as I love the squeaky wheels.

Utterly charming. I cried happy tears. I loved how tactile the descriptions are. E.g., when Peter is having a panic attack and obsessing over picture frames, my heart and mind were right there with his every panicked breath.

A roomba, a raccoon and a new recruit by Bergen, happyaspie

Summary
Tony always knew that Queens was a bit of an unhinged neighborhood. So of course it was going to be during a visit to Queens that he once again fell victim to a robot attack. The ‘robot’ being an overexcited roomba that responded to voice commands awfully well.
Whoever made this roomba was clearly operating on that fine line between genius and insanity.
Which meant Tony needed to meet him. -

Summary
“Your sole job as Director of SHIELD is to keep track of global threats and you’ve narrowed down the whereabouts of the mad god with mind-control Jedi tricks to the planet Earth,” Tony summarizes flatly. “What’s the plan? We wait till he blows up another super secret facility whose mysteriously undocumented existence doesn’t make me suspicious at all?”
“Germany!” Rogers blurts out, interrupting Tony’s epic stare-down with Fury.In which the surviving Post-Endgame Avengers find themselves back in 2012, trying to stop Loki from invading the Earth. Without tipping their not-in-the-know team members off. Things go— sideways.

Extremely amusing and entertaining version of the first Avengers movie, except Barton, Banner, Cap, and Thor all remember the events of Endgame.

Summary
Forty minutes into her book signing, Pepper’s hand is cramping up. Seeing herself perfunctorily smiling back at her from cover after cover after cover, is getting at her. It isn’t often that she wishes for someone to interrupt and insist on a photo. Or for one of these large, heavy bookcases to topple over and fall on top of her.
The next woman who shuffles up to her table, book clutched in her arms, might just be her selfie-saving-grace. She certainly has the wild-eyed look of starstruck-ness. Pepper smiles and holds out a hand to take the book from her.
The woman doesn’t relinquish it. “Ms. Stark,” she murmurs in a low voice. “My nephew Peter ran away. And I need the Avengers to find him.”
Pepper knows how to respond to requests like these. Kind but firm. Thirteen thousand people go missing in New York every year, and it’s heartbreaking, but the Avengers can’t possibly—
“Trust me,” the woman says. “You’ll want to hear me out.” -
The fifth stage of grief by Bergen

Summary
Look.
Losing someone close to you is rough. Grief is a strange thing, it affects appetite, sleep patterns, mood. May had reassured Peter many times that he was not crazy for feeling crazy. That he simply needed to give himself time.
He also read about the process of grief in a pamphlet Happy gave him.
So, when he gets back from the funeral at the lake house and walks into his bedroom to find Mr. Stark lying on the rug, ankles crossed, twirling his thumbs, and generally looking extremely alive…
…well…
…clearly this is what the pamphlet meant with ‘denial’ being the first stage of grief. -

Summary
Bucky returns from a ninety-five-day-long mission to find a scrawny boy poking the lock of their supply closet. There is no way a random petty thief would be able to step into the compound for casual robbery, which is the only reason why Bucky doesn’t take the intruder into an immediate head lock.
“I think I’ll go warn the Avengers about you.”
The intruder lifts his chin and crosses his arms. “Good luck. But for your information, they all really like me.”
“Is that right.”
“Yes,” he says, and he adds, still in that menacing tone: “they think I’m adorable.”Series

Bookmarker's Notes
Reading Bergen's stories sometimes feels like I'm finally getting that therapy I need, and it's the most affirming, comforting, mind-altering therapy possible. For example:
“Guilt can be healthy,” Peter says. “But healthy guilt is directed at your behavior, not at yourself. Behavior that you can change. If it was out of your control, your guilt doesn’t serve a purpose.”
I needed to learn that lesson today, and I feel better for having received and internalized it.

Summary
Post-NWH.
The Avengers haven’t been much of a group since they defeated Thanos, since a large fraction of the team died, retired, went AWOL or MIA. It’s mainly up to Sam and Bucky – with some help from a still recovering Tony – to catch the latest enhanced serial killer roaming the streets of New York.
Until a random college student from MIT named Peter Parker suddenly seems to have some answers.
Sam is cautious. Tony is intrigued. Bucky is the voice of reason for a change.- Language:

Summary
“How old are you?”
“What do you care?” is the hostile reply.
“Because I don’t remember agreeing to hire kids on the cleaning team.”
Peter Parker takes another bite of his sandwich and says, around a full mouth: “I’m just here for my community sentence.”
“Huh,” Tony says. “Why?”
“I spray painted ‘superheroes should go fuck themselves’ on the side of this building. Got caught.”
“Better luck next time, then. Were you in my lab yesterday?”
“I was in several labs,” says the kid dismissively.
“Did you mess with my calculations?”
“I corrected them, if that’s what you mean. Today is my last day, and the thought of leaving them up like that, half-assed, gave me angina. So, yeah, sue me.”

Bookmarker's Notes
This was incredibly therapeutic. I can't believe how much wisdom is contained in this story. E.g.:
May wishes she could do that. Not care what anyone thinks. Not care what anyone thinks about her parenting, specifically. In her experience, moms are judged at every turn: by their kids’ accomplishments, by their happiness, and their behavior. In her experience, she is constantly striving to meet some arbitrary standard of perfection that every parenting book alludes to but none of them can fully define.

Bookmarker's Notes
I adore this series. It's extremely creative and utterly unique, which is really saying something in a fandom as old and vast as this. It's no surprise that the story would be so well-written, exciting, and whimsical, though, given the author's identity.
