the generic spy au

• post with your character. congratulations, they're now a spy.
• need inspiration? think kingsman, james bond, mission impossible, the bourne movies or any of these
• pick a mission (assassination? gathering intel? going undercover?) or another situation (spies have to eat and drink and sleep, too, right? spies might have a family, spies might have downtime...)
• tag around! others might be your partner, your target, a spy from another agency, a concerned family member, your boss or whatever else

(Don't suppose you would be up to doing a pre TGC thing with these two? Could be post TSS or not. Like Whiskey, my Percy is also lawful neutral.)

[ assassin bruh, what kind of punk ass bitch needs subtlety or like, not to leave a barbie head and an empty pack of entenmann's behind after a job
also obviously this is an au so it's not strictly applicable, but i play her from s1 to mid s2! ]

karen page | daredevil/mcu

[ either full au'ing her as a spy or teaming up with one for intel gathering ]

Natasha Romanoff | MCU

[we_compromised]

Steve would think he'd eventually get used to being in situations that were new to him, but somehow, he never did. And sure, he knew about spies--they'd had them in World War Two--but, well, apparently things had changed. Quite a bit.

"What even is all this stuff?" Howard Stark created tons of stuff, too, but they were obvious to their purpose. He's not used to this whole table with gadgets, some of which looked like normal stuff, and some which looked like--yeah, he had no idea. He picked up a pencil, trying to examine it.

Taek Jegal | G.O.H

[excuseless]

[ What're we going to do tonight, Taek? The same thing we do every night, partner- try to take over the world.

The villain, with a ludicrous plot for world domination and also martial arts for a big climatic fight. ]

Maria Hill | MCU

[standardprocedure]

[scalesandsecrets]

Agent Hill can we talk? It's urgent.

[Natasha Romanoff looks up at the security camera covering Maria's front door, she doesn't smile. Clearly whatever's brought her to Maria cannot wait, there was a faint hint of worry in Natasha's voice when she spoke and a tautness to her body language that says something big is up.

Anything to get the human woman to open the door.]

natasha romanoff | mcu

[glaza]

[ well yeah ]

[jamesbbarnes]

[ As sleeper spies, they were given very direct objectives to blend in and appear to be just another suburban married couple. They were to make connections and find the important American Intel to pass over to their handlers. Mostly, to do with the war effort and the space program. But there were a few either details Bucky received before they were led out to their new home. It looked identical to all the other places on the block but he felt more concerned over his pastel sweater vest and slacks. Why? Still better than Natasha's flower patterned frock, though.

Smirking to himself, Bucky stepped out of the station wagon to start unloading boxes, eyes catching some of their curious neighbors peering at them in what they probably thought of as discreetly. They needed to focus on the cia agent and his wife, the judge and his wife and finally the sheriff and his much too young bride. Quite the scandal. ]

[A former law enforcement Lieutenant recruited into spy work. Excellent at work but shitty and awkward as hell outside of it.]

[totally an assassin spy.]

[scalesandsecrets]

[The US government holds few secrets for a woman with her abilities. Treadstone, Blackbriar, Iron Hand, Mystique knew all of them, had access to their files at her fingertips. The programs themselves were of moderate interest, potential threats to be monitored and eliminated if they became too dangerous. What had caught her attention were the reports of a defector, a lone spy who had left the CIA and left havok behind him in his wake. Not too bad for a human.

Perhaps this Jason Bourne was someone she could use. Capable as she was Mystique couldn't be everywhere, but her eyes and ears could be, spies who she had recruited or turned to work for her, all the time never knowing who they actually dealt with. Someone of Bourne's skills and with an obvious cause to hate the government, could be an ideal recruit if handled correctly.Tracking him down hadn't been easy, but she was persistent; it was simply a matter of time and finding the right lure, and now it seemed her efforts were about to pay off.

Blue scales rippled, settling into an entirely different figure, one that staggers out of the shadows toward the approaching assassin. Grasping her stomach in clear pain, blood oozing from a gunshot wound in her stomach, the woman swayed as if about to collapse, reaching for the only thing that could steady her, Jason Bourne himself.]

Bourne...help!

There's nothing quite like a familiar face to inspire trust.

gary "eggsy" unwin | kingsman

[lesson]

( just saw the golden circle so i'm down with spoilers, but can also avoid them! let's get into car chases )

[grailknight]

(This could be interesting. Canonically, Percy is the only other Agent Eggsy met pre V-Day even if it was during what looked like the most uncomfortable trip in the tube ever. I'm happy to set Percy at any point in canon.)

roxy morton | kingsman

[halosuit]

( aka the best agent! drop a line if you'd like to avoid golden circle spoilers )

[agent_tequila]

[Roxy is best Kingsman, but Tequila is best Statesman (I'm lying, it's Ginger)? Down for something? Post-movie?
