    Summary

    “Be rul’d, you shall not go.”

     

    “My fate cries out!” And as the ghost beckons once more, Aaron headbutts Seth in the chin, making him bite his tongue. Metallic blood is drawn to his spit immediately, and instinctively he brings his hands to his mouth. In that instant, Aaron is gone, jumping over the castle ramparts and scaling the cragged stones to the forest floor. He waxes desperate with imagination. 

     

    Whose fantasies are these now, Seth asks himself.

     

    Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.

    Summary

    When Bucky fell from that train, when he slipped through Steve’s fingers, it had felt like the end of the world, a cataclysm whose blast radius was limited to one Steven Grant Rogers. Everyone else, he’d thought, could survive it, even if it hurt them. Steve could not. Steve had not, even if that had proven to be a temporary state of affairs.

    Now, Steve’s world doesn’t feel like it’s ending. It feels like it’s beginning again: a violent transformation, a terrible rebirth. It roars through him, hope and horror in equal measure, drowning everything else out.

    After the Avengers find a frozen Bucky in an abandoned HYDRA base in Siberia, Steve thinks that everything will be okay now that he has Bucky back, now that he's safe and alive and healing, now that they're together again. But Bucky's road to recovery is long, and Steve and Bucky have fundamentally different ideas about what it means to come home from the war seventy years later than they'd expected to. Those different ideas might even be irreconcilable. Even if Steve has found Bucky, he's going to have to reckon with the ways he's lost himself along the way, or risk losing Bucky forever.

    Summary

    "Owen," protested the girl, and her face came into view. "You're scaring him!"

    She looked young. Not much younger than Avid himself though— her hair was a deep russet red, her skin pale and dusted with freckles along the nose. She looked like any other girl in any other village, with an expensive looking skirt and a contrastingly simple woolen jumper. Her hair was plaited into ribbons, gathered in two elaborate bunches to either temple. It made her look younger than she was, combined with the careless way she knelt in the dirt, and the smoke, and the widening puddle of blood that Avid couldn't see the source of.

     

    But when she saw Avid cowering in his stinking bloody box, she smiled, and Avid saw two very sharp teeth.
