Casus Belli by Kettricken (G)
Fandom: MARVEL COMICS
Pairing: Gen. Kate Bishop and Cassie Lang are the main characters.
Length: 2514 words
Author on LJ: unknown
Author Website: Doesn't seem to have one.
Why this must be read: Very few Young Avengers fics focus on Kate and Cassie, and fewer still focus on the friendship they share. Kate's been called Cassie's best friend in canon, and this fic shows their closeness perfectly. It also shows how the Civil War in the Marvel Universe affected the Young Avengers, Cassie in particular, while still showing that not even that event could rip apart a friendship as close as the Young Avengers have.
The rest of the team shows up in the fic too, but this fic is remarkable for Cassie and Kate's time to shine.
Snippet:
"List three major causes of the Civil War."
Cassie Lang rolled onto her back and frowned at the question. She held her notebook up
nearly to her nose a moment, turned it sideways, then extended her arm all the way and squinted.
"You're not going to find extra notes by staring at the book funny," said Kate Bishop.
Kate, seated at the other end of the blanket, was slowly making her way through a
chicken salad sandwich; and also keeping a surreptitious eye on the other denizens of the Sheep
Meadow. An unusually dry spring had thawed the mud quickly, bringing New Yorkers out to
enjoy the sun; the still-cool breeze raised goosebumps on newly-bared skin, and tugged the edges
of flying frisbees. The frisbees would have made a great skeet shooting gallery, it occurred to
her, had arrows been permitted in Central Park.
Rest Here:
