Bookmarker's Notes
“Rod closed the deal and dug out his cell phone. He tapped in the number and frowned. It didn’t connect.
‘I’m afraid your phone isn’t working properly, Mr. Norsky,’ Cole said.
His voice sounded odd and when Rod glanced up, he didn’t even look the same. The flush and awkwardness were gone, and Rod was being stared down by a pair of calm, steely eyes. With a cold feeling in his gut, Rod figured he was in some deep shit.”
—Good shift from Cole to Coulson
“Agent Coulson’s face stayed impassive, but something about him revealed his amusement. Frankly, it was terrifying.”
—Good reminder that something usually described positively (with fondness, attraction, etc) from Clint’s POV would be evaluated very differently from almost anyone else.

It's almost Christmas, and after some stern words from his mother, Phil ends up taking the omega with him for a family Christmas. What started out as a gesture of human decency, soon reveals to be something a lot more.

Summary
Post-movie fix-it. Phil needs someone to stay in his apartment with him before the doctors will sign the forms to release him from SHIELD medical.
Clint doesn't know why he's helping or why it's so important to him because he's fine, everything is just fine. Phil doesn't need Clint's help because he's fine, everything is just fine.
Except for when it isn't and it turns out they both need more than they're willing to admit to.

Bookmarker's Notes
I like the way Phil’s recovery-related annoyance is done; the conversation about dreams works well (conveys emotion well and emotions are pitched at a good level).

Summary
When their attempts to recreate the super soldier serum failed, Hydra started trying to breed Captain America clones from his genetic samples. Unfortunately, the serum's effects aren't passed down genetically, so instead of an army of tiny Captain Americas, they get a bunch of tow-headed, asthmatic, allergic, immuno-compromised little Steves.
And then the Winter Soldier stumbles across Hydra's failed experiment...
