A/N: This is my submission for the amazingly wonderful @yallneedtrek and her brilliant writing challenge.  It’s been a while since I wrote Scotty and it kinda got away from me here, so I really hope this isn’t a huge disappointment.

That stupid tone that would haunt your nightmares rang out from your speakers, alerting your work colleagues to your incompetence yet again as the error message flashed up on the screen.  This was ridiculous.  You were damn good at your job, so good Enterprise had head hunted you and offered you quite a substantial package to get you here.  You were NOT going to be beaten by a bloody machine!  Clicking the screen a few times you were rewarded with the same error tone and message.  “Fucks sake.” You muttered to yourself as you angrily slammed your fingers over your keyboard, typing furiously.  Suddenly a little box in the bottom left of your screen popped up with a message.

Some examples;

Don't be afraid to break the pointless and sexist rules society has imposed upon you, especially if they stand between you and your dreams.

Learn to recognise your self worth beyond the trappings of success.

Recognising and working to correct your white privilege, is not only the right thing to do morally, but will also lead to a more diverse and exciting playing field.

AN: Let’s hear it for the first chapter of a full Marvel fic! And my first slow burn! This is for @until-theend-oftheline  ‘s Seasons of Love - Heat of Summer challenge! Hope you enjoy, be sure to let me know if you do! 

Prompt: “I told you I’d save you a seat in hell,”

There’s nothing like summer in the city. D.C. was busy in the summer and the heat oppressive. You wanted to have words with the people who decided a swamp was a good place for a city. But even in the middle of the city, your neighborhood was quiet. Kids played outside on their own. A little park was close by, but you could still see the Washington Monument from your window. Steve lived around the corner from you and you had taken over his apartment, it was one of the only on your block that still had air conditioning. An overnight storm had dropped limbs on power lines and knocked out half the street. Steve had left for a mission and as soon as the temperatures started rising in your apartment, you used your spare key to get into his. You wandered through his apartment searching through his refrigerator.

Hey guys!  I haven’t written anything in forever so I really hope you like this!  To be honest I’m really scared it’s crap.

Feedback is greatly appreciate, as always. xoxo
