  3. Summary

    Lily sought echoes of Narcissa in everyone she met.

    Lily wondered if Fate strived to be cruel as it brought them together once again, half a decade later, with the consequences of the Wizarding War strewn all throughout their lives, their ever-crossing paths a reminder of a chance she had forgone.

    Narcissa wondered if Lily had forgotten about her.

    Ever since she had learned of the prophecy that placed Lily in danger, Narcissa delved her hands into the war and played a chess game of her own, sweeping the Dark Lord’s victory from right under his nose at the sacrifice of the family she grew up in, the family she married into, and the society that had moulded her in her formative years. However, no part of her regretted it, especially with the knowledge that her Lily was alive, even if the war left them scarred, their lives irrevocably altered.

    Unexpectedly, Narcissa and Lily reignited their long-lost connection, no longer schoolgirls who yearned for the stars to keep them together, but the war-worn women they had become.

    As if spring flowers after a harsh winter, their affection blossomed slowly, in a world that wanted them together once more.

    Summary

    Yelena Belova stares up at the plaque– the Battle of New York Memorial, listing the names of those who first assembled in midtown Manhattan. All names she’d gotten familiar with those first few months after destroying the Red Room; those first months where her only focus had been free will, character agency, and the Widows, when it should've been– it should’ve been– family.

    Natasha Romanoff’s name blends in unassumingly within the roster of men– the fifth out of six– as if determined to lay low undercover even in death.

    Death. Natasha Romanoff was dead.

    A week after half the universe's population returns, Yelena visits Trinity Church Cemetery. There, within the darkness, a light in the form of an equally broken man guides her way through the sorrow.

    Summary

    Vi looks at the big clock on the far wall. 7:46AM. She’s one minute late today. Every morning for the past six months - well, every morning Vi’s been on shift, so she’s just assuming about the other days - she’s passed by at exactly 7:45AM, always at a brisk walk, always in a perfectly-tailored suit, not a single long, silky-looking hair out of place.

    7:47AM. The crisp clack of heeled boots on concrete pulls Vi out of her musings. There must have been some sort of emergency, because the subject of Vi’s (minor) obsession walks past the fire station at a faster clip than normal. Which is sort of saying something, because Mystery Woman’s got legs for days, long and slender, visibly toned with long, lean muscle through her suit pants. At the faster clip, Vi has less time to admire her ass and tiny, tiny waist as she walks by, but that’s fine, because the view as she leaves is fantastic.

    OR

    Caitlyn's route to work as a detective at the 51st Precinct takes her right by Fire Station #516, and Vi's been pining after the gorgeous Mystery Woman for six months...what will happen when she finds out that Caitlyn's a cop (AKA: The Enemy)?

    Summary

    Reader has been a vigilante for the last year–exposing corrupt elite, fighting off street thugs, speaking out against the government tightening its iron grip on superheroes. All of it while also working a full time job at a cat cafe. When arrested by the New Avengers and given the choice between prison time or joining the team, they join the team. They think it’ll be full of the self-righteous assholery of everyone else in power, but as they get closer to the team, they realize that everyone is just as trapped as them.

    When a new villain makes an appearance to try and kidnap Reader for reasons they won’t detail, the team has to worry about the safety of their two most unstable members and prevent them from falling into manipulative hands (besides Valentina, of course).

    What happens when Reader is kidnapped by this villain? What lengths are the team, and especially Bob, willing to go to to get them back?

    ---
    Tldr: Reader is the living embodiment of sunlight while Bob deals with Void & Sentry while simultaneously keeping each other alive by trauma bonding like neglected shelter dogs
