    Summary

    Varnish, in painting, is applied last. It deepens the colors and unifies the surface so the viewer sees cohesion instead of process. It is what allows a work to survive scrutiny under bright lights. It protects a painting just like public personas protect them. When it thins, truth shows through and the fragile question of whether it survives exposure.

    Kate understands this intimately. She builds her life the same way she builds a canvas. Her vulnerability exists only in oils and linen, never in conversation. The world only sees saturation and brilliance. It does not see the underpainting she keeps correcting.

    Until someone finally does.

    Summary

    “Let’s make a deal.”

    That was enough to make Kate perk up. “I’m all ears.”

    “If the target does not appear in the next thirty minutes, we go to the lower roof next to the building and do it your way.”

    “And if the target appears?” Kate asked.

    “We do as I say. You stay behind me and you stay quiet.”

    “Perfect. It’s a deal.” She extended her hand, and Yelena didn’t wait a second before taking it.

    Or

    Five times Kate and Yelena end up hurt and, consequently, patching each other up. Plus one time they don’t get hurt at all.

    Summary

    Yelena and the Thunderbolts stumble upon Kate Bishop during a routine mission. Which is pretty weird because she's been missing and presumed dead for three years.

    When Kate wakes up unable to recall anything from when she was missing and able to speak a new language, the Thunderbolts agree someone needs to figure out what happened to her. And it might as well be them.
