This is my last chapter for this fic, hope you enjoy it and I’m sure you’ll enjoy the last one from @libbyweasley next week <3
“Hey girl!”
Jemma looked up from her tablet and smiled. “Good morning agent Triplett.” She didn’t feel like smiling a lot these days but it was hard not to smile at someone with such a genuine, sunny personality.
“Just Trip. I’m not even sure we’re agents anymore. Or that it’s safe calling ourselves that. What are you doing?”
“Ironing out the last details of our mission.”
“Oh right, the undercover mission,” he said with a strange knowing smile on his face that made her frown. They had all agreed that going after the 0-8-4 they had been told to retrieve before everything should be their priority, that they had to get there before Hydra got their hands on it, and that it made sense to go undercover. It wasn’t like he was in on some big secret.
“I can help with that if you want. We worked pretty well together the last time, right?”
This is it! The end! Thank you for joining us on this journey.
It has been so much fun to write this fic with @agentofship. I hope you enjoy!

Fitz had hoped that the fall of SHIELD meant there were some quieter times coming. His whole life had been building to this moment — going to the Academy, meeting Jemma, Sci-Ops, going into the field — but somehow it just kept spinning faster and faster. There were more threats, more missions, and more going undercover. It wasn’t just that this life wasn’t for him, it was that he was tired of pretending. It was all too real and the constant danger – to him and to Jemma – made it impossible to ignore. He’d gone and fallen in love with his best friend. That he could have lived with. It certainly wasn’t the first time he’d been aware of his feelings for Jemma. But now he’d kissed her, felt her body against his and heard those little sounds she made, and even confessed his love for her.
At some point along the way he’d gotten terribly lost. SHIELD had been exciting, Jemma had been right about that at least. But he really would feel much better in a nice, safe, non-mobile lab where he could do his research and then go home to a real bed at night. The charm of this life had gotten lost sometime after people had started shooting at him every day…

Summary: Miss Simmons, aged 22, wants what any sensible young lady wants: a laboratory where she can study the stages of decay, a subscription to a circulating academic library, and for her parents to stop making difficulties about that misunderstanding with the livers. When her father announces that he’s moving the family far away from their home in Cambridge, she fears that her already slim chances of contributing to scientific progress will vanish forever. Perhaps, however, the cosmos has something rather different in mind.
Or, in other words, if you fancy a story that aims to combine this kind of energy
