1 – 7 of 7 Works in Teambuilding
Summary
“I know what you’re thinking, Reg, but honestly, I can’t pretend to lose it again,” Dorcas began while sliding a fresh cuppa across his desk.
“Again?” Regulus replied, dark eyebrow quirked in question.
“Yes, well… This time, you are going to have to send someone. That man actually spoke to your cousin-in-law about it. You know, they unfortunately go way back… Just pick a couple of nobodies—I mean, executives you won’t miss—and send them up there. Then you can go back to ignoring him for a few more years.”
Regulus flipped through the folder to find the complete email, since a summary could only do so much. In glaring gold embossed letters, the message read:
Marketing EXPERT Teamwork
Send your executives, employees, friends, and business partners to Gilderoy Lockhart’s Memorable Corporate Teamwork Marketing Retreat!
Several details followed, but none of them mattered to him. He suppressed the urge to roll his eyes and felt a migraine building from the effort.
“Really?”
Dorcas shifted. “I know. As I said, he did contact Mr. Malfoy, so a refusal would definitely reflect poorly…”
Regulus sighed. “Right… Anything to get them off my back, then. But who do we send?”

Inimitable Verse Anthology by deniigiq
Fandoms: Daredevil (TV), Deadpool - All Media Types, Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)
10 Mar 2019
Summary
Anthology containing:
Inimitable
“Peter, is it supposed to be doing that?” One of his students asked him. He looked up to see the industrial-strength magnets he’d collected for this lab trying to crack through the glass between them to be reunited. The glass splintered.
“Yeah, no. That’s totally fine,” he lied. Then he inconspicuously chased everyone to the corner of the lab, donned a glove, and smashed the glass so that it wouldn’t splinter and stab someone in the eye in its explosion.
His students cheered.
He needed a drink.
(Peter gets called back to the city at the age of 25 to help mitigate the rapidly increasing crime rate. He's in way over his head, so he sets out to re-establish Team Red.)
Level Up
“Alright, we’re done,” Daredevil suddenly announced and made for the door.
Peter threw a hand out, stuffed it into a gap in his armor and, to the trio’s shock, physically dragged him back. Murdock leaned hard out of the grip, but Peter didn’t seem bothered by that.
“Double D, not everything’s cursed,” he lectured, “And not all curses are bad, that’s just what Christians tell other people to destabilize their societies.”
(Matt and Peter accidentally get involved in some witchy business, and the Spidey trio have to go back and convince their fifteen-year-old fearless leader to help them solve it)
Relativity
Peter weighed throwing his drink in Harry's face and storming out divorcée-style with pretending to go into anaphylactic shock to escape this interaction.
They were both pretty good.
He needed to take his badge off first, either way.
def not a democracy
He started to pull back to tell Angel, ‘sorry, no can do. Your fam’s too fucking weird for me to cope with. I’ll just pay you back in cash,’ when the tiny thing at his hip went dead still and snapped her head up to look him in the eye.
“Where does the web come from?” she asked, “Is it your butt?”
Peter looked up at the wall behind the child and considered all his options.
“So, I’m not sure this is gonna work out,” he observed evenly.
(Peter babysits Little Spidey's sister for a night and the integrity of Team Red is temporarily thrown into chaos.)
not throwing away
Nine lives, you could say he’d had. But only one shot at this.
(Matt asks Fogs to marry him.)
flower child
Matt gave the kid a high-five for trying to fight an alien.
(Matt meets the little ones of Team Red. He remains the worst influence.)
Onwards
SM: guys my therapist has prescribed me self-care
SM: she gave me a pamphlet
SM: It is all bullshit. I need real-life suggestions. Ready go
DP (´｡✪ω✪｡´): k what you need is to start a ranch
SM: she said no hermit or Lotr fantasies
SM: next
DP (´｡✪ω✪｡´): well fuck man
(Peter is confronted with the concept of self-care and goes to San Francisco to find it with Matt and Foggy. Miles and Team Red hold the fort back home.)
take cover
“We’ll just have to wait and see,” the lawyer said.
Wait and see what? Until when? Until Miles’s dad went to jail for five years, only to be liberated by some podcaster with a savior complex who took an interest in his case? Was that the pipe dream they were waiting for? Because if so, Miles wasn’t game.
That night, the last piece of the bottle appeared in his sock, pushed out by the healing skin.
He held the piece in the palm of his hand and hit the true breaking point.
(Miles's dad is wrongfully arrested. He and his mom need a little help resolving it. Turns out that there are a couple especially helpful hands somewhere in all those spiderverses.)
under fire
“Woah,” Miles breathed. Except he didn’t. No, the other guy, he’d said that. In Miles’s voice.
“It’s another Miles,” Gwen murmured with awe. Another Miles. He had a double. He had a double like Peter did.
“Hi,” he said, then felt awkward as hell. How were you supposed to greet your clone? Twin? Alternate universe buddy? Was there a handbook? He needed a handbook.
“Hi,” the other Miles said through his mask, then looked down. Miles looked down with him and realized they were still holding hands. They let go at the same time.“You’re me,” the other Miles said. Apparently he’d gotten the handbook.
(Someone is trapped in the Spiderverse. Miles, Gwen, and Peter B. find themselves in need of some assistance to rescue them.)

New Game by alden
Fandoms: Mass Effect, Mass Effect - All Media Types, Mass Effect Trilogy
07 Nov 2017
Summary
She'd woken up in an unrecognizable galaxy, jammed together from spare parts, a Cerberus logo stamped on her ass. She'd been handed a beautiful, expensive, top-of-the-line mockery of her old ship, crewed by beautiful, expensive, top-of-the-line terrorists.
The Alliance wanted her to shut up and go back to being conveniently dead. Kaidan, it seemed, felt the same way. Anderson was the only family she'd ever had, and he wouldn't even answer her emails.
And either Shepard's sanity had splintered under the stress, or she was now some kind of unkillable demigod. Or both.

Summary
Merlin is Arthur's lover, his manservant, his knight, the grain of sand that will make Camelot into a shining pearl. But the one thing he cannot be is a sorcerer. After Merlin confesses, Arthur is determined to find a way to remove Merlin's magic, to remove the corruption without killing him, and before it can destroy his soul. But magic can only be fought with magic. Without Merlin's powers, Camelot will be defenseless against the next magical attack. And that's not all Arthur has to worry about, because there are visitors to the court, alliances and enemies, and a princess he may have no choice but to marry. To set things right, Arthur will have to confront his father’s lies and embrace the magic he was raised to fear.
Gwen has kept her faith in secret even as she listened to Morgana's muttered nightmares and watched Merlin from afar. But when Morgana sees terrifying visions of Camelot’s destruction, the truth comes out for them both, bringing them together even as it tears them apart.
Through heartache and hard choices, all four of them must join forces to save Albion and its magic from the terrifying Sidhe and an equally terrifying Uther.

In Which Tony Stark Builds Himself Some Friends (But His Family Was Assigned by Nick Fury) Anthology by scifigrl47
Fandoms: The Avengers (2012)
05 Jul 2013
Summary
Steve takes things like personal responsibility and respect seriously. Tony's got people he pays to take care of that kind of thing, and anyway, he's pretty sure that he's going to die of some exotic disease in his workshop, because Dummy's still a little spotty about what is 'clean' enough to put on an open wound. The rest of the Avengers are in this for personal gain, except for Clint, he just enjoys being a dick.
