Summary
John isn't quite sure of his role in the new and fragile team he's ended up with after getting used to being assigned one all these years as a soldier and a shadow operative.
Everyone else seems to fall into some designation or other—leader, strategist, moral compass, father figure, muscle—all of them pieces falling in a puzzle that John can't seem to fill because the others fit better, and the thought slowly pushes him into a frustrated despair.
John spirals, becoming one with the sofa. He doesn't know that something else is wrong with him. Something darker and more sinister.
--
John wakes up in a cold sweat, drawing deep, labored breaths, feeling like his chest is about to cave in.
His bloodshot eyes focus, and with it, the chilling realization.
A sinister shape, pitch black, is straddling him, a figure so utterly devoid of light that it's silhouetted by the already dark background that is his room.
It only takes a second for him to catch on. He's seen this figure before, hovering above New York the day Bob transformed into Sentry.
"You show such willfulness, John Walker, clinging to your own darkness for so long."

Summary
Two months after the whole of New York City was swallowed in darkness, you are still learning how to live as a team. No longer just a weapon in the dark, you’re surrounded—for the first time in your life—by people who care. Who see you. Who refuse to leave, no matter how many walls you put up.
But trust doesn’t come easy. Every mission, every meeting with Valentina threatens to pull you back into the cage you fought so hard to escape. And despite the calm Bob brings just by being near, the weight of your growing feelings for him only adds to the confusion. He’s kind. Steady. Bright. You don’t know how to want something that good without bringing ruin.
This is a story of learning to breathe without looking over your shoulder. Of panic attacks, bruised knuckles, and late-night comforts. Of nightmares eased by warm hands. Of found family and learning what it means to be safe—and starting to believe they might mean it.
What does it mean to love and be loved when inside you have a monster lurking to be set free?
This is the second story to my Silhouette series. If you haven’t read that I highly recommend reading that first.

Summary
Ever since Bob confessed his feelings for her, he and Yelena have been quietly, cautiously together—learning how to belong to each other while keeping their relationship hidden from the world, and even from the rest of the New Avengers for a time being.
Life settles into a rhythm: Bob continues going to therapy, Yelena carries on with her missions. But when she discovers he has been avoiding his medication, she also uncovers a truth he has told no one else: The pills don’t silence the voices in his head. The Sentry and the Void never stay idle—sometimes slipping into his body, stealing whole days from his memory. Quieter now, more neutral than before, but never gone. And if anyone else but her knew, Bob fears he’d be abandoned or locked away again.
He isn’t normal. He isn’t stable. He is fractured—and now, the other parts of him have noticed Yelena. They want her too.
And Bob asks her the question that terrifies him most: Can she love all of him? Including the worst parts of himself?

There’s shuffling for a second on the other side of the door.
“Are you on the floor?” Bob asks, a little confused. Ah. John probably should’ve considered that.
“Just sitting,” John lies. “You do that all the fucking time, don’t you?”
“I guess so,” Bob says uncertainly. “But you don’t.”

“I’m not at liberty to discuss any of the team's abilities as of now, but I will say that Bob is our friend and an invaluable member of our team. He’s been there since the beginning and was instrumental in our success against the Void in October.”
“What do you have to say to the viral social media posts circulating these past few days, comparing Bob to, quote, ‘those dogs they put in cheetah enclosures to keep them from killing each other’?”
On the TV, Bucky sputters. “I uh. I don’t know enough about zoology to comment.”

Summary
“You look ridiculous,” Ava said, stepping out of the stairwell soundlessly.
John flinched. He’d never get used to Ava’s Ghost thing—appearing without sound, like a blade drawn in reverse.
“Can’t believe you picked the roof for a smoke break,” she smirked. “Cliché much?”
“I don’t smoke.”
“Then it’s worse. Brooding with no props.” She drifted closer, the clink of a bracelet faint against her wrist. “Seriously, Walker. You ever get tired of looking down?”
John shrugged.
“View’s better than in there.” -

Summary
After a huge opportunity for the band, Bob truly screws up, letting himself be carried away by his newly intensified addiction—already strong enough not only to ruin his own life but also to mess up the lives of those around him, especially John, who would have followed him passionately if it weren’t for Bob’s overwhelming urge to self-destruct.
Fifteen years later, they needed to learn how to deal with past mistakes, life choices, and changes—and more than that, to realize that sometimes a new chance comes with the same face as the previous one.
With invaluable losses, a shake-up in their lives, and loves never forgotten, they need help; otherwise, memories and fears could destroy each one of them. -

Driven by jealousy rather than heroism, he sought the power to match Superman’s might, believing it would finally prove his worth. But with great power comes a dangerous instability. Haunted by his past, tormented by his own failures, and pressured by a team that sees him as the planet’s last line of defense, Bob must confront the darkness within himself before it consumes everyone around him. Amid political crises and the looming threat of war, he struggles to control the immense power he barely understands while the memory of the man who once inspired him, Superman, serves as both a guide and a tormentor.
