I’m actually a little surprised that this fic took me two months to finish. I’d somehow jumbled up the time in my head to think it was all done in October. But it’s finished now, so we’ll call it a win. This is the second chapter of Criminal Mastermind (cleverly titled ‘Criminal Mastermind part 2’) […]

[I wish I had better sourcing for this — I first saw it on tumblr but have since lost track of it. The text on the bottom of the pic says disneyscreencaps.com, and I grabbed this captioned version from here.]

Just a few of the things I liked: 1. Turning ‘thank you for your cooperation’ into an inside joke. 2. Hand […]

I love how Gene falls back into teamwork so easily with Tony, Pepper, and Rhodey. I love how excited Nick Fury is about an alien invasion. And I […]
