Why this must be read:
Okay, so really the entire Captain America 'verse needs to be read. Because of the awesome. But specifically -- gyzym has a really in depth idea of what Neal and Peter's relationship might have been like, pre-series. We've always gotten hints that it's only Peter who could've caught Neal, and this story explores some of the reasons Neal might've gotten sloppy enough to get caught. (BTW, If you don't like Neal/Peter, know that this story frames it only as a Neal-wanting-Peter thing, so no worries about Elizabeth or marriage or possible paternal vibes.)
Summary: A con's only as stupid as the reason you're running it.
Teaser:
"Look," he starts, "if you guys are going to be total buzzkills--" and then Mozz gives a little gasp of understanding.
"This is about your suit, isn't it?"
Neal stares at him. "The suit I'm wearing?" he inquires, honestly curious. "I don't see how it's going to help me break into the Met, but if you've got an idea..."
"No," Mozzie snaps, and he looks angry now. "Your Suit. Your pet Fed, Neal."
He feels the blush start at his neck and actively forces it back. "I don't know what you're talking about."
Stupid Is As Stupid Does
Note: This story is part of a series/universe known as the Captain America 'verse. All the stories stand alone, but there are some crossovers. And also? All of these stories are awesome. So you should read them.
