desertvixen A few recs from the Final ShipSwap collection!
1. Let The Water Wash You Clean (MCU, Steve Rogers/Natasha Romanov) - This one is really good. A little introspection, because showers are good for that. The voices of the two characters are SPOT on, and there's even a "Language" moment.
“You know what defines you?”
“The fact that I’m a killer?”
“The fact that you’re not.”
“Rogers, I kill people all the time. You’re with me for most of them.”
“And I’ve never seen you hurt someone who doesn’t deserve it.”
2. Building Blocks (MCU, Steve Rogers/Maria Hill) - This one is funny. The story is told by notes and text messages (transcribed for ease of reading, with art) and it's really good.

P: So, he’s sending you food, and gifts that are tailored to your likes, but you’re not dating.
M: We are most definitely not dating.
P: Because that sounds like dating to me. Or, at least, the bit that usually happens before dating. Or possibly when he’s been a dick and is trying to apologise.
3. and it all comes back to you (TOS, Spock/Chapel) - Interesting canon-divergent take on this relationship. It's sort of sad and bittersweet, but I enjoyed it.
4. Unsent Holos (Star Wars, Leia/Han) - Good introspection piece.
5. Reception (Vorkosigan Saga, Duv/Delia) - This one will be of interest to the LMB fans amongst us. Diplomatic reception! Dancing! Plumbing troubles! Listening devices! Delia and Duv doing the tango. Go read it!
