Dropping out of college after two years and an unpleasant break-up, Vera needs a change - so when she gets an opportunity to spend some time in US, she doesn't hesitate and grab it firmly. She wasn't sure what she expected when she decided to do so, but gaining a friend whose middle name should be tornado and meeting this blind guy, who comes to a gym after hours, wasn't on her list. To be honest, an encounter with a masked vigilante wasn't there either.

... or what might and might not happened. Crack. There is no better word for it. Probably not even a screenplay. There are like millions of Matt meeting the Avengers fics out there, so... my short and crackish version related to Damned If I Do. Set after chapter 24) ...I'm just giving in Not a standalone. Not necessarily vital for DIID.

Aka Christmas at Nelsons. Foggy's mum invited Matt's girlfriend for Christmas as well. It was a really sweet gesture, except it scared Vera out of her mind. It goes as well as expected. Damned If I Do coda, set after epilogue, before Of Guilty Saints And Innocent Sinners. Possibly a standalone...?

In which Dean and Sam meet the Devil who may care and his little sister who may not be his little sister, everyone has a fake alias and bleeds too much, Claire is not amused and Matt should probably admit that this time, he is actually way over his head. More or less in that order. Might work a STANDALONE, even though technically it's part of Damned If I Do verse. Set after Damned If I Do, somewhere before Christmas maybe? Before the trial, that's for sure. It's actually not important, you'll see why. Season 5 for Supernatural - not particularly important either. I don't think profound Supernatural knowledge is required.

She was a victim of a kidnapping and since masked vigilantes aren't exactly trustworthy (or have permanent address for that matter), she is the only witness apart from the cops who found her. Vera knows she will close the chapter named Officer Collins once for all, but here is one thing she has to manage before that - she has to testify at court. Oh dear god. This is going to be a disaster. Sidefic/coda to Damned If I Do, set 1-2 months (January) after the main storyline.

After moving to Hell's Kitchen, settling down and somehow winning the sympathy of the Devil, Vera is happy. There were sure more than a few bumps on the road, but now they are all overcome and she has an amazing (a little reckless and a little much heroic) boyfriend, couple of good friends, steady job and relative non-bloody calm. But this is Hell's Kitchen: its guardian angel is called the Devil and he has issues of his own. There is no non-bloody way of doing things there - after all, she learnt that in a hard way before.

In which Oliver is kind of an egotistical D until he's not, Foggy is a D as well (with a reason though), Diggle is being a father despite not having actual kids, Felicity meets someone who put their feet in their mouth almost as often as she does, Terri is everything but subtle about her crush and Vera learns Hawkeye is not the only archer in the world and that she may need to rethink her life choices. More or less in that order. It's definitely less funny and more angsty than it sounds. Set during Damned If I Don't between chapters 'The punch-line' and 'Strong enough to stand'. Arrow somewhere in season 2, because OTA - Original Team Arrow ♥.

He knows he should have been faster. Try harder. He knows it's his fault. But she will do anything to convince him otherwise, he knows that too. She won't blame him. And while she will believe what she'll say, it won't make it actual truth. He goes to her anyway. Works as a STANDALONE or part of 'Damned' verse.

In which Matt finally meets the family, pets Brett, attends a wedding, reveals some of his less dark secrets and gives yet another reasons to be loved for. Basically an excuse to write a shameless fluff. With just a little bit of smut. Set after the epilogue of Damned If I Don't.

Waking up in hospital sucked. Waking up in hospital without a clue of what happened to get him there was worse. Finding everyone thinking he apparently dreamed up the events of the past year, while being in a coma for three months, was... paralyzing. And things were only about to get worse from there.
