Summary
The rooftop — her safe haven, her main character monologue setting — a liminal space, a personal stage; for her to ruminate, to be dramatic, to wait… and pretend she’s in a dramatic indie film where someone (Yelena) is in love with her and it’s all very inconvenient and angsty and beautiful.
(TL;DR Kate is very very gay (as she mentions multiple times throughout this fic) for Yelena, so gay ensues, softly and romantically.)

Summary
"It's good to see you again," Kate murmurs. “Despite it only being two days since I’ve seen you”
Yelena’s scrunches her nose up, a smile flashes across her face and she presses a gentle kiss to Kate’s cheek “It’s good to see you as well Kate”
And Kate knows Yelena means it, (and no, not just because she doesn't use Kate’s last name) she knows because of the way Yelena’s eyes shine with openness and a warmth only she possesses.

“Jeez, I was just going to say if you want to feel me up you don’t have to be so in-con-spichu-ocus”
You snort and look up at her as she stumbles over the word, her accent thickening as she tries to say it again.
She pouts and you smile, lifting yourself up onto your tiptoes you press your mouth against hers and everything goes silent, the shitty music and bad lighting fades away because she’s here, with you, pressed against you, warm and alive.

Summary
Ragatha knew what she was doing was wrong. If her mom knew about this, she would have a fit. But when stuck in a Digital Circus with no exit in sight, everyone has their vice.
And this was her coping mechanism of choice. One that only she knew about.
Or, at least, until Pomni caught her.

Summary
Glancing over at Yelena, she is still reading whatever was sent to her. “What is it?”
Those green eyes flicker over towards Kate then, just as Yelena turns her phone away so Kate can't read it. “What does yours say?”
Kate shrugs, “you know, details about a thing…might be the same as your thing.”
“Maybe.” Yelena maintains eye contact and Kate finds herself getting lost again. Wanting to push and tease, to wipe that growing smirk off of Yelena’s mouth with her own. “Ava can be very detail oriented when she wants to be.”
“Yeah, yeah same…Kamala, details as big as the fists she can make, you know?”
Yelena shakes her head. “I don’t know that, actually. She doesn’t speak to me much.”
“Yeah you kind of intimidate her.”
“Good.”

Summary
Kate's dream of joining the Avengers—fine, the Young Avengers, but still—is finally becoming reality! The team is gelling, training is intense but rewarding, and she's living the life she always wanted. Sure, the paparazzi are relentless and Twitter is a nightmare, but those are minor annoyances.
When Yelena needs a fake girlfriend for an undercover mission, Kate doesn’t hesitate to volunteer. It just makes sense: they’ve been friends for months and they can fuck with Valentina.
They just have to convince the world they're in love while taking down a dangerous organization and trying not to ruin their friendship in the process. But hey, at least Kate gets to spend more time with her favorite Russian! If only she could figure out what's real and what's for the cameras...
