This one is maybe a little iffy, seeing as how it's technically a "complete" fic that ended on the kind of melodramatic cliffhanger that would normally torpedo any chance of a recommendation from me, and then the two chapters of the sequel that last updated in 2017... but those two chapters turn it into a decently completed story, wrapping up that cliffhanger enough that the rest can be left as an exercise for the reader without introducing new plot threads, so here it is. I went into Calibre and picked the "make anthology from URLs" option in fanficfare's drop-down, and pasted both URLs in, and it's good enough for me.
V is for Victory opens near the end of the first Avengers movie, with Jane Foster and Darcy Lewis hearing about Thor being back in NYC and heading over to meet him. They arrive just in time for the final pre-credits scene and, through Loki shenanigans, Darcy gets sent back in time to WWII with a side order of reality adjustment and memory whammy to have a life in that time and place: movie star Darcy Lewis, America's Sweetheart. currently engaged in a war bonds photo shoot. She promptly runs into pre-serum Steve Rodgers, by the kind of chance that is more magic than actual chance. Hijinks ensue.
Keep Calm and Carry On was to be a full length sequel, but as I say pretty much ends up being more like the denouement lopped off the end of its nominal prequel in the name of melodrama. It's probably telling that this is the point where it died out...
I didn't see the Cap movie to know how much of this is borrowed from it, but given it mostly follows Darcy I don't imagine it can be all that much beyond the general timeline; she talks about things with Steve that are probably more directly involved in that but isn't directly involved in action hero facepunching stuff.
Contains sex and nudity, but nothing more explicit than a bare boob and indirect descriptions that go more into emotions than actions. (At least, it didn't stick in my mind as anything particularly explicit... I wouldn't absolutely swear to it, but the sexytimes are tastefully handled to the best of my memery.)
