Summary
Steve's rarely been touched in a way that didn't equate to some kind of hurt. The cold metal of a stethoscope against his frail chest or the sting of a needle drawing yet another blood sample, when he was a sickly child. The bone-shattering punches thrown by the neighborhood bullies on the playground, or by his own father at home, drunk and wild. His mother, weak and clutching at him as she grew more incoherent with the drugs as the cancer ate away at her insides. Touch was something he shied away from, something he told himself he just didn't want.
Except...he did. He just didn't know how.
Until he finds a flyer for a local "affection and intimacy services" program.
In which Steve learns how to become comfortable with touch, and there is one very good dog, and a slow-burn romance.

“Dr. Foster, this is a tower full of highly trained soldiers, spies, and geniuses. If we can’t track down and subdue a frith—um, small Asgardian mammal, then nobody can,” Steve says. He tries to look reassuring. It must not be working. She’s still looking around like it might pop out at any moment.
“Frithrkottr,” she says. She takes a deep breath and tucks some errant strands of hair behind her ear. “It’s furry. Kitten-sized.”
“A real cause for panic,” he says, trying to make her smile.
She doesn’t look calmed.

Summary
The Commission gives Hawks a mission to infiltrate the League. Which, wouldn't be so hilarious, if he hadn't already been married for two years. And Dabi knows all about his mission.
It only gets better from there.

Summary
The first time Hawks ever worked with Miruko, they were both covered in debris and dust, and Miruko had walked up to him and casually thrown an arm over his shoulder, asking him, “Where the fuck do you buy your eyeliner?”
He blinked in surprise. “Eyeliner?”
“Did I stutter?” she asked, raising a brow and jabbing a finger to point at his eyes. “Dude, everybody has been trying to figure out how the hell that shit never rubs off since you debuted.”
“It’s, uh, it’s natural,” he said hesitantly, a hand drifting up absently to trace over the markings. “It’s part of my quirk, I was born with it.”
“That’s so fucking unfair."
