Summary
You love your position at the BAU, but your life is uprooted when Hotch sends you on a temporary assignment to the FBI field office in New York.

As you realize quickly things aren't as they seem, you must find a way to protect yourself- If protecting yourself has something to do with a masked vigilante... That's no fault of yours.
But this man, Matthew Murdock, has the uncanny ability to tell when you're lying. And that's dangerous for you, someone who's life is built on the sands of a buried past... So what happens when your assignment ends? How well can secrets stay secret when murder will always out?

Summary
Steve Rogers comes out of the ice and into an entirely different world than the one he left behind. Nothing is left to remind him of home, and he feels no thread of connection to the people he sees walking around New York. Until he steps into St. Agnes parish and meets a little boy who’s just lost everything, too.
“It’s okay to not feel any better. Sometimes talking about the person you’re missing doesn’t feel like it’s helping. It feels like the hurt is even worse. But that’s alright. It’s still good to talk, even if it hurts.”
Slowly, Matt nodded again. He opened his mouth, but nothing came out right away. Steve waited.
“Sometimes…” His voice was small and unsure now. “Sometimes, it feels like the whole world died. Or like God made a mistake. Like I’m not s’posed to be here without him.”
All the breath left Steve’s lungs in a rush. He closed his eyes.
“...Yeah. I know exactly what you mean.”

Summary
Frank lights a cigarette he doesn’t want, the flame trembling in the wind. For a second, the smoke almost smells like the clean sting of aftershave and the burn of whiskey on his breath. He closes his eyes.
New York’s changed, but the ghosts walk the same routes. Every rooftop, every alley — it’s all still him somehow.
