confession in a desperate situation: Neal is forced to confess that he doesn't want to change for Peter, he wishes Peter would change for him - or - Eliot tells Parker and Hardison that he's leaving them because his emotions for them make him unable to be effective as their protector in the field
dungeons: Hardison and Parker find Eliot trapped in a dungeon and break him out. -or- Clint realizes he feels more at ease trapped in a supervillain's dungeon than he should, which is good since this is an AU where Coulson is a supervillain and/or Coulson is undercover as a supervillain with instructions to not let Clint find out he secretly works for SHIELD. Maybe for the h/c Clint hurts himself trying to escape and Coulson takes care of him.
atonement: Natasha & Clint friendship fic. with Clint/Coulson or Natasha/Steve or Jane on the side totally awesome. Clint and Natasha agree that they will each use their long backlog of vacation time to atone for their pasts, and that they will work together to make up for both of their mistakes. Natasha's idea of atonement involves very bloody attacks on people she used to help. Clint's idea involves retracing the locations of his big regrets and trying to make sense of it all and not dealing with it well and trying figure out how to atone once he feels out the specific location.
sensory deprivation: Steve/Tony, Tony wants to be blindfolded during play but then the blindfold makes him have panic attacks. He's super ashamed that he 'freaked out' in front of Captain America and thinks that hero Steve will think less of him/remember that Tony's not a real soldier etc. Steve is actually not remotely an asshole about it and helps Tony.
parting ways: Chuck/Bryce, every time they have sex, Bryce worries that it will be the last time
culture shock: (sort of?) Steve/Clint/Natasha or Steve/Clint/Tony with dom!Steve with two subs in either case. Steve knows how to be a good dom in a scene but the other two want all their non-working hours to be dom/sub or something similar. He struggles to adjust and worries that he's not doing a good enough job nurturing and comforting/etc. Maybe Clint thinks Steve's difficulties are ALL HIS (Clint's) FAULT. Would be fine if this were Coulson/Clint/Natasha too.
deprogramming: Neal is sent undercover to infiltrate a cult or extremist group, Peter realizes Neal is buying into their ideas and hires a rough deprogrammer to help. Bonus if Neal is not really gone to the 'other side' but is just having doubts or questions, and it's hard for him to understand how Peter could overreact like this.
abandonment issues: Chuck/Bryce play kinky games that address one or both's abandonment issues by finding ways to "claim" the other
