Pairing: Sam Wilson x reader named Evelyn
Words total: 6440

Summary: They had their first date on Christmas Day five years ago, and this year they’re planning something special to celebrate the anniversary. We get to know them as they prepare for Christmas and the anniversary, but something doesn’t go to plan.

Inspired by this prompt: You’re working on Christmas and Sam surprises you with something, either with something at work or something at home.

Additional prompts used in the planning process: kissing away tears - “Take my jacket, it’s cold outside” - Decorating the tree - “That is the ugliest Christmas sweater I’ve ever seen” - “Did you just put fake antlers on the dog?”

Important note: Keep in mind that I haven’t watched Thor: Love and Tunder or anything that has come out since then, because of reasons.

Note: Third year now that I’m doing an advent calendar story for my best friend, it’s become a tradition and I want to do my best to keep doing it every year. I will again reveal a little bit of story every day until Christmas. I hope you like it @iguess-theyre-mymess Love you!

Pairings/characters: Bucky Barnes x reader
Words: 5683

Summary: No one thought the Avengers would be back after the final battle against Thanos. But here they are, a brand new team, moving into the shiny new headquarters right in time for Christmas. They are made to do Secret Santa for team building, and Bucky sees it as an opportunity to do something special for a certain someone…

Inspired by this prompt: i got you for secret santa so i got you this really expensive but sentimental gift that you’ve always wanted, hoping you’ll never find out it’s from me - and that i’ve been in love with you 1234567 years

Note: Last year I got the idea of writing an advent calendar for my best friend and I wanted to do the same this year. You don’t know that I’m doing it again, but I think you suspect it :P I will again reveal a little bit of story every day until Christmas. I hope you like it @iguess-theyre-mymess​​. Love you!

Pairings/characters: Leonard McCoy x reader
Words: 4487

Summary:
She catches a nasty alien flu for Christmas, but thankfully Leonard McCoy comes to her rescue. But then the Enterprise run into an anomaly, crippling the ship’s systems.

Note:
As I was driving to work on November 30th, I was thinking about advent calendars and my best friend @iguess-theyre-mymess​, and an idea came to me. I wanted to write her an advent calendar, revealing a little bit of story every day until Christmas (which is the 24th here in Norway, not sure how advent calendars work everywhere else). So here it is, a little surprise every day for this beautiful person I’m so lucky to have in my life. And thanks to her, I am now genuinely excited about writing for the first time in a year and a half.

Pairings/characters: Jim Kirk x self-insert, Leonard McCoy, mention of Spock
Words: 2359

Note:
A somewhat self-indulgent story.

Pairings/characters: Steve Rogers x reader, Thor, Thanos and everyone from Endgame
Words: 2077

Summary:
It's the final battle against Thanos and Steve is about to give up. But then he hears her voice in his head...

Note: Inspired by this. This is basically part of the final battle in Endgame, so naturally I have used dialogue from that, and you will recognize most of what happens. That said, I do not own Marvel, The Avengers or characters or anything else you recognize. I have simply taken part of the movie and written it in my own words, to make it fit with the idea I came up with. The definition of fanfiction, basically. And I hope I haven't made it too boring... Writing your own spin on something in this way that I have done, can be pretty boring, and out of all the stories I've read like this, I can count on one hand how many of them were done in an interesting way. I hope I have managed that.

Pairings/characters: Bucky Barnes x reader, Steve Rogers, Natasha Romanoff, mention of Wanda Maximoff
Words: 3757

Summary:
She wasn't supposed to be on this mission with Bucky, but plans had changed, then plans had gone wrong and now they had missed their flight window. Sexual tension rises to the surface while they wait in the safe house, and when an avalanche makes them stuck, repressed feelings rise too.

Note: Something @iguess-theyre-mymess gave me an idea for when I was doing NaNoWriMo last year, but that whole thing went to hell. There is something not right here, with the characterizations. We've discussed it, but then I forgot all about it, and now I'm just... fuck it. There's smut here, people will ignore characterization as long as there's smut. Sue me.

Summary:
(Very very loosely based on Neil Diamond’s song with the same title.)
Steve usually runs off on missions during Christmas, not feeling very much like celebrating a modern Christmas. It’s just not him. But this Christmas there is nothing for him to do, but hang around. And he can’t help but find the holiday spirit again.
