Welcome to the Maria Hill Comment Fic Fest - a chance to write a bunch of ficlets about the woman who single-handedly rescued Captain America, the Black Widow, and the Falcon from death at the hands of HYDRA with nothing more than her brains, a stun-wand, a laser-cutter, and balls of pure titanium.

Instructions
1. Leave a comment containing a prompt, scenario, or quotation to inspire someone else. If you want to leave characters or pairings in addition to Maria, then add them in!

eg.
Maria & T'Challa, understanding and responsibility
Maria, gen, We are made to persist. That's how we find out who we are. (Tobias Wolff)
Maria/Steve, sex in uniform up against a wall where there's the fear of discovery

2. Pick a prompt. Write a drabble (100 words exactly), ficlet, fic, novella, or GRAND EPIC TALE about Maria from that prompt.

3. Post it/link it to the comment-fest, putting the title/character/pairing/rating in the subject line.

eg.
MCU: "Killing In The Name Of" by Tielan - Maria & Natasha, R (violence)
Ultimates: "If It Wasn't For Those Damned Kids" by SelDear - Maria, G
Comics: "UnPleasant Hill" - Maria/Steve by SueLinley, PG-13

4. Do it all over again!

Any incarnation of Maria is okay, any pairing/threesome/moresome with her in it, any additional characters - so long as the story is about her!

There are no deadlines, no requirements to leave prompts or to fill, and no pressure to perform! (Although I hope many people will - more Maria love is always needed throughout fandom b/c she is freaking AWESOME.)

There will be two posts where prompts can be left - LiveJournal and DreamWidth - and anonymous commenting is allowed and unscreened on the Fic Fest post so anyone can post a prompt or link to a fill! If there are enough fics, I might start an AO3 collection if there are enough fics for it on AO3.

Come and play!

NB: I vaguely based this off the Porn Battle, as well as the various other prompt-fests out there.

I also loved all your great Totally Maria lines:

they'd collectively spent enough just getting here to build three schools and feed the labourers' families or hire teachers for a year. The kind of work Maria was supposed to be monitoring for Stark.

(Tony!)

No dissembling there. If everyone was this wonderfully direct, Maria would probably be out of a job.

...."You can make things go better, can't you?" Maria prodded, imagining a construction site where everything always went well, and what that would do to financial margins and overheads.


VERY Maria.

Thanks. I'm really glad you enjoyed it. Tony (or probably Pepper) is presumably funding sensible things too, but... my biases my be showing.

I just really like Maria. She always seems to have a lot going on, even if you don't see as much on the surface. The combination of practicality and strong feelings about loyalty appeals.
