Summary
River and Spider are tasked with the same field assignment, and each writes his own version of the incident. Their conflicting accounts reveal more than the operation ever could: petty rivalries, professional grievances… and the quiet, stubborn ways they notice each other.
As files, memos, transcripts, and unsent drafts accumulate, the tension escalates, bureaucratic formality crumbles, and by the end, even Slough House can’t deny what’s been growing between them.
Strictly operational… or not.
This fic is told trough incident reports, unsent emails, and Lambs last will to live.

One quiet evening on the dock, he realizes something he hasn’t felt in decades: he’s calm. Safe. With his guard finally down, Bucky begins to understand that what he feels for Sam runs deeper than friendship. And maybe, just maybe, Sam feels it too.

Summary
I 100% believe Sam came rushing to make sure Bucky was ok after the movie. Aka
Sam didn’t come to yell about the “New Avengers” thing—he knew Bucky had nothing to do with that. He came rushing in because New York went dark, and Bucky didn’t call.
