Kiss Me Like They Do On The Emergency Broadcast News

There are some new promo pictures of the Avengers circling around and I just want to make sure everyone has seen this one of Black Widow, which is my favorite of the lot.

Also, this promo of Kat Dennings makes me want to write a Steve/Darcy 1940s detective AU so damn bad. Darcy is the detective, obvs, and Steve is the good man who's just returned home from the war and hires Darcy to [do something detective-y!] and there is banter! and Darcy smokes cigarettes like a sexy, sexy dame and plays both the role of the femme fatale AND the hard-boiled, wise-cracking, gumshoe while Steve falls in love.

If I was really going to be accurate to noir, the fic should end with them walking away from each other but FUCK THAT - instead, after learning THE TRUTH about [*waves hands* the whereabouts of Colonel Phillips! the names of former nazi generals hiding on US soil! Oh, I know, I know, the details of Howard Stark's war profiteering!] they kiss passionately in the rain before ~The End~ appears.

Speaking of things that should exist, this AU image for a Steve/Darcy Weird Science AU made me desperate for fic on the subject!

They walk away from each other and then there's a moment of a sort of wide pan where they stop and, at the same time, they turn back to each other and there's a slow, sultry walk back to the middle where they embrace and there's a hot, sticky kiss. In the rain. Yes. *nods in approval* This.

Exactly.
