“Tony Stark, also known as Iron Man, just bought a new mansion somewhere in Italy. Here are the pictures the billionaire allowed us to take.” The TV anchor announced, displaying images of a super villa with a giant pool that Stark had apparently bought. That fucker was out there living his best life while the boss was probably in Hydra’s hands. For a moment you swore you wanted to reach his level of nonchalance.

You sat on the couch eating ice cream, having nothing better do to than watch the news. Nothing exciting if not for some reporters who concentrated more over what Steve Roger’s daily routine was rather that the actual important things.

Bucky was out on his usual morning run about two hours ago, he had offered you to join him and that warmed your heart since it was the first time he proposed to do something together for the first time ever since you met him. Truth was, you weren’t really the most athletic person around; your stamina was great, yes, it was your brain that was lazy.

It was still early in the morning, and Sam and Dean hadn’t answered their phones yet. Not even with a text. Their car was still parked outside, as you had noticed when you looked out of the window earlier. You might have thought they were dead if not for their usual morning screaming match that the whole neighborhood could hear. You considered going over to their place to see if Cassandra had woken up - it would be strange if she hadn’t - but you opted not to. If they had something important to share, they’d show up.

Your curiosity piqued when you heard voices from outside, and specifically it was a girl’s laugh that made your frown since it sounded like it came from your lawn. You tossed the ice cream box aside and walked over to the door, swinging it open.

Bucky was already back from his morning run, and there was a girl you recalled as Dalia right beside him. Both of them were wearing jog clothes, which made you assume they spent the last couple of hours together. Or, at least, some time considering the too friendly way she was clinging to him.

He was telling her something that made her laugh loudly and nudge his arm playfully, and you bit your inner cheek at the sight. The man didn’t even seem bothered by the touch or her presence, so much for someone who was usually as social as a rock.

You leaned against the doorframe, watching the both of them like a hawk - or more like an old, noisy woman. It wasn’t jealousy, though, of course it wasn’t; you had absolutely nothing to be jealous of considering that technically you and Bucky weren’t even friends. But something deep inside you boiled at the view, a strange feeling you tried to ignore.

“Bye, Harry!” Dalia said, using the fake name Bucky was using for the mission, smiling brightly at your supposed-to-be husband as she waved and walked away, back to her mother’s house. She even winked at him as she left despite noticing your presence, and she knew you were his wife. What a beautiful way to start the day.

Bucky’s smile vanished as soon as he turned around in your direction, ready to head back inside. He raised a questioning brow when he saw your expression. “What?”

“I didn’t know you were this funny, Harry.” You remarked, as you crossed your arms under your chest.

He stopped on the porch steps, sighing loudly. “It’s part of the job.” He said, walking past you inside the house. “We need to stay in character.”

You rolled your eyes and followed him inside, closing the door behind you. “Right. So if I get too cozy with her brother it’s not okay, if you flirt and make her laugh it’s part of the job?”

He turned to face you, his expression unreadable. “Two completely different situations. Plus I wasn’t flirting, what I was saying wasn’t even funny. And it’s not like I could push her away, we have to blend in. Remember?”

You crossed your arms tighter, leaning now against the kitchen counter. “I get that, just remember who you’re married to.”

He raised an eyebrow as he walked towards the fridge to get some eggs, a grin making its way on his face. “Are you getting possessive? Because I have to admit, it’s kind of cute.”

You scoffed at that. “Don’t flatter yourself, I’m not the type to get possessive over anyone. All I want is for this mission to not be compromised because you can’t keep it in your pants. But you do you, I guess.” You raised your hands in surrender. It wasn’t a lie, Bucky getting involved with someone else outside the case could cause too many problems.

Like that one time Pietro almost blew up the whole mission by ruining a woman’a marriage, prompting her soon-to-be-ex-husband to try and kill him… and that wasn’t even the first time something like that happened. Pietro wasn’t exactly known for his professionalism, and not even his speed could save him from bullets. But thankfully he didn’t become a colander.

“Believe it or not, I’m great at keeping it in my pants and I have no intention of getting involved with anyone.” Bucky chuckled, walking over to the cabinets to grab a bowl. “Now, do you want breakfast or was that ice cream you left melting on the couch enough?”

You have him an ironic smile as you went back into the living room to retrieve the box of that delicious ice cream. “What are you even cooking? The fridge is empty.”

“Eggs… it was the only thing in there.” He replied, as you tossed the food back into the freezer. “We need to buy groceries between a murder and another, Emma. We can’t live off of junk food forever.”

“Nah.” You shook your head, waving a hand dismissively. “Speak for yourself; I’m perfectly fine with this arrangement.”

He let out an annoyed sound, choosing to simply drop the conversation rather than try to convince you otherwise because he knew it was most likely impossible.

As you settled back on the couch, Bucky busied himself in the kitchen. The sound of eggs sizzling in the pan filled the air as you watched a documentary about a leopard that couldn’t hunt for her life, and you couldn’t help but feel completely at ease despite all the shit you found recently. Perhaps it was your philosophy of ignoring problems until they disappeared.

“So, what’s the plan for today?” You called out, raising your voice just enough for him to properly hear from the kitchen.

Bucky glanced over his shoulder, shrugging even though you could not see him. “We should check on Sam and Dean. They’ve been acting weird ever since we left Malcom’s house, usually they’d be here already at this hour. Also, we need to see if Cassandra is awake, she could solve all of our problems if she stopped playing dead for a second.”

“True. Poor girl’s probably traumatized, though. I usually sleep too to avoid facing my problems.” You said, pulling your legs up onto the small coffee table. “Remember we need to go to Mrs Miller’s twin sister, as we agreed yesterday. Did you think of asking Dalia about her while you were, you know, flirting?” You asked, your tone dripping with sarcasm just for the fun of pissing him off.

Bucky grunted, clearly irritated by you bringing up the subject again. “I wasn’t flirting and no, I didn’t.”

You saw him walking back into the living room, carrying two plates of scrambled eggs - you frowned in confusion at the view. Not that you minded, the opposite; still, it was weird having this sort of normality with someone like him. He placed one plate on your lap, along with a fork, and he sat beside you.

“Oh, we’re already having breakfast together now? Things are moving fast, what’s next? A fancy dinner?”

“I hate you.”

Your banter was interrupted by an aggressive knock on the door, as if someone was in a rush. Your immediate thought was that it might be one of the Winchesters, perhaps with news about the girl. Or, maybe, they had finally come to their senses and remembered the four of you were working together, since they have been MIA for the whole previous day.

Sharing a glance with Bucky, you could tell he was thinking along the same lines. Rising from the couch, you moved to open the door. “Dean, I swear to fuck-” Your words died in your mouth as the door swung open, revealing Cassandra on the other side.

She was visibly trembling, her eye makeup smudged from tears all over her cheeks. Still dressed in the same dirty clothes you had found her in, she clung to you almost immediately after the door opened.

“I was kidnapped, please let me in.” She pleaded, her voice breaking. “Please, let me in. Four men kept me locked in a room for a day.” She cried out.

Bucky was at your side in less than a second as soon as he realized what was happening, reacting faster than you as he shoved you both back inside before anyone in the neighborhood could hear. If they called the police you could have gotten in trouble, Avengers or not.

Cassandra lay on the floor, tears streaming down her face, while you and Bucky exchanged bewildered glances, each lost in thought on how to proceed from there and time seemed to stay still. With a heavy sigh, you ran a hand over your face before kneeling in front of her, Bucky’s gaze hovering over you. He was clearly pissed, as you had noticed, probably at Sam and Dean for leaving Cassandra unattended or, even worse, locked away alone.

It was nothing but a miracle that Cassandra had found her way to your door and not anyone else’s or that would have been a catastrophic failure since this girl was the last hope you had.

“Cassandra?” You began, you voice as gentle as you could muster. “My name is Emma, and this is my friend Bucky. We’re Avengers, you’re safe here.”

At the mention of the team, Cassandra’s lower lip quivered and she instinctively moved closer to you seeking refuge. There was fear in her eyes as she clutched your wrist tightly with her cold, shaky hand, her vulnerability palpable in the air. “Avengers?” She repeated, her voice barely above a whisper, her gaze darting between you and Bucky.

You nodded reassuringly, maintaining your soothing tone as you confirmed your words. “Yes, Avengers.”

The tremor in her grip eased slightly as she visibly relaxed, but it wasn’t enough for her to stop trembling.

Cassandra moved her brown eyes from you to him, studying his features briefly before the color drained from her face. “The Winter Soldier.” She gasped, as if she had just seen a ghost. “He’s- he’s with them- he’s with Hydra. I don’t want to go back there, please don’t hurt us.” She rambled, trying to pull you away from Bucky despite still being on the floor. “He’s a murderer.”

You unfortunately didn’t miss the flash of hurt that crossed Bucky’s face before he immediately masked it with a neutral expression and stood up. “Take care of her until she’s feeling better. Call me when she calms down.” He said, his voice empty of any emotion, as he made his way out of the house.

“Bucky, wait-” But your words lingered in the air as he shut the door behind him.

You inhaled deeply as the house fell silent, feeling Cassandra’s wary eyes on you. You couldn’t blame her for being frightened, given what they must have told her or did to her wherever she was kept - it was a natural response.

Setting aside what she had said to Bucky, you mentally noted to talk with him later. Holding her hand, you tried to comfort her through the touch. “Come with me, it’s okay.” You said gently, helping her up from the ground.

She glanced around, likely searching for any other potential threats, and relaxing when she realized you two were left alone. “Thank you.” She mumbled, her voice still hoarse. “Why was he here?”

“Bucky? Well, he’s a good guy and he was helping me find you.” You explained.

She vigorously shook her head, disagreeing with your explanation. “He’s an assassin. Do you know how many people he killed? Hydra wants him back so he can continue the job, they didn’t talk about anything else… he’s dangerous, and he will bring me back there. I don’t wanna go.” She pleaded again, her voice trembled as tears threatened to escape once more.

“No one is going to take you back there, alright?” You reassured her, placing a comforting hand on her forearm sensing that physical touch brought her solace. “You’re safe here, with us. Go sit on the couch, okay?” You offered her a smile, which she returned as she obeyed your instruction.

While she made her way to the couch, you hurried over to the windows to close the curtains, ensuring that no one saw her there before joining her. You noticed the red marks on her wrists from the rope Malcom had used to tie her up, and you knew from experience how much they must be burning. However, you had nothing to treat her wounds with, so you didn’t offer.

“Do you want something to drink?” You asked.

She shook her head. “No. I want my mum.” She said, nervously passing both her hands over her dirty jeans.

You forced a smile at her request, unable to tell her the truth about her mother’s absence. “What’s the last thing you remember, Cassandra?” You inquired.

She blinked a few times, taken aback by the sudden question. “Please, call me Cassie.” She requested before continuing. “I remember a dark place. The trunk of a car, Malcom’s car. He put me in there when he heard two people breaking into his house… he locked me up and ran away, and then I woke up in a room inside those four men’s house.” She explained, her breath shaking with each word.

“The people next door are friends of mine.” You informed her. “We brought you here after I found you in that car.”

She frowned. “They kept me inside for a day, I woke up hours ago.” She told you, her voice trembling.

You clenched your jaw at the realization. You had trusted Sam and Dean with her safety, only to discover they left her completely alone, scared, and traumatized while they argued amongst themselves. Fighting to keep your raising anger in check, you spoke softly. “They’re… not exactly the best at… listen, it was my mistake for trusting them with you, I’m sorry. Did they hurt you?”

“No, they didn’t.” She confirmed, much to your relief. “But they didn’t allow me to leave. I had to use the bedsheets to escape from the window.”

You sighed, nodding. “You said four men? Not two?” You asked, suddenly remembering that detail.

“Four men and a woman.” She confirmed. “I heard them through the door. They were talking about strange things, dead bodies… demons.” She scratched her forehead, her lower lip trembling once more. “I just want to go home. Did you call the police? They must have been searching for me.”

“I know you want to go home, and you will in time. But, Cassie, you’ve been kidnapped by Hydra. You know that, right? The police… they’re useless.” You explained, trying to maintain a comforting tone.

She nodded, understanding the gravity of your words. Traumatized, yes, but not an idiot, she was still able to piece things together. “I know.” She said, her voice barely udibile. “He hurt her, didn’t he?”

You remained silent, trying to grasp what she was referring to. “Who?”

“My father.” She answered. “He hurt my mother, didn’t he? He said he would if she kept interfering with the atrocities he was doing with Mrs White.”

Your heart stopped at the mention of her name, and you felt your entire body go numb. It had been a long time since you heard that name uttered by someone who likely knew her, and you despised the grip she still had on you. Especially now, with the confirmation that she was still live.

Your hands trembled, but you clenched them together tightly, hiding them between your knees to conceal your weakness. “Mrs White? What’s-” You cleared your throat, trying to dispel the knot that prevented you from speaking clearly. “How do you know about her?” It felt like a stupid question, but your mind was suddenly clouded.

Cassandra looked away at that, her gaze distant. “I was left on my mom’s doorstep by my biological mother when my father cheated. I always knew I was adopted, she never hid that from me and still raised me as hers.” She explained referring to Mrs Miller, passing a hand over her lower lip before continuing. “I always wondered who my biological parents were, and when Dad came back into our lives I was enthusiastic - I couldn’t hate him, and believe me I tried. Even knowing how much pain he put my mom through… he was still my father, you know?”

“Of course.” You replied, though your own experience with fathers was nonexistent. However, that wasn’t the time to bring it up.

“And so, Mom took him back and we started to build a relationship from scratch. He took me to dance practice and was even there for my 18th birthday. It was as if we had never spent almost twenty years apart. Until one day, I found out he was texting the person who gave birth to me.” She continued, a hint of anger flashing across her features simply at the thought of this person.

She was telling you nothing more that a detailed version of what you already knew, but you were curious to see where this conversation was headed.

“I found out completely by accident, and when I asked who it was he didn’t even hide it from me. I didn’t want him to hurt my mother again, and… and I told him to stop texting her. I told him he had to leave her in the past. I mean, I did want to know who she was, desperately, but I knew my mom would be devastated. So, I just opted to forget about her but my father had other ideas. I started to dig into his past life, and I found out everything about Mrs White. I found out about Hydra and the experiments they did to people.” She explained, a tear rolling down her cheek, which she quickly wiped away. “I can’t believe my mother would agree to ever do things like that. What kind of monster is capable of such things?”

“Cassie, what does your mother have anything to do with Hydra?” You asked, frowning.

Her eyes met yours as she spoke. “Mrs White is my mother. My biological mother and nothing more.”

Time seemed to stand still. Her features were too familiar now that you were seeing her up close, but never in a million years would you have thought that was the reason why. The person in front of you was the daughter of the woman that had ruined your life, and instinctively, your body jerked aside to put some distance between you. You didn’t mean to do it, but you did nothing to fix it even when you saw the confusion in her eyes.

“How do you know about Mrs White?” She asked and it was your turn to look away.

You weren’t used to this rush of emotions coming out all at once, and you found it hard to maintain a stoic face as the main subject of the conversation was the woman who had made you kill people for a living ever since you were born.

“Long story.” You just answered, unable to utter anything else.

“I’m sorry.” She said sincerely, taking your hand in hers.

You looked down at her hand, but the gesture did nothing to comfort you. In that moment, hardly anything could. “William Barlow mentioned you found out she had another daughter. What can you tell me about her?”

Cassie seemed taken aback by what you said but quickly composed herself. “I didn’t know Will knew about it.” She confessed. “But he is right. Ella White abandoned me while she apparently took care of this other daughter of hers, my half sister, while I’ve been wondering what I did wrong to be left on a doorstep.” She let out a dry chuckle and spat out her mother’s name as if it were venom.

“Do you know who this girl is?”

She nodded. “I do. Turns out she abandoned her too at some point. Apparently, old habits die hard. She has a good life now.” She said with a sad smile. “But at least she got to know her.”

“Not that it was a great pleasure if you ask me.” You couldn’t help but spit out.

“No, it wasn’t.” She chuckled sadly.

You nodded at her words, your mind flooded with thoughts about the woman who would haunt you for the rest of your life. But now wasn’t the time to dwell on that, not when you had someone to take care of. It was the least you could do.

“Do you want to take a shower? Relax a bit?” You offered, squeezing her hand that was still in yours.

“Yes, I’d like that.” She replied.

“Great.”

While Cassie took a well deserved shower, you decided to find Bucky - wherever he had gone off to. Once the girl locked the bathroom door, you made your way downstairs finally having a moment to think properly. And, truth be said, your thoughts were anything but kind; Dean and Sam Winchester would be begging for their lives in the next couple of minutes.

Maybe that was a bit dramatic, but they had managed to rub you the wrong way. How could anyone be so inconsiderate as to leave a girl who had been kidnapped alone?

As you opened the front door, your face almost collided with someone’s chest. You looked up slightly and saw Dean standing there, his hand raised as if about to knock, nervously smiling at you. Sam stood a few feet behind him, and while he clearly looked pissed, his expression was more like that of a kicked puppy.

“Sweetheart.” Dean began lightly, spreading his arms as if to greet you. “You look good, did you do something to your hair?”

You would have stabbed him if you had a knife in your hands, but it wasn’t your lucky day. “Cut the bullshit.” You snapped.

Dean’s smile faltered, and he glanced over his shoulder at his brother, who made a face that clearly said ‘deal with it’. Dean turned back to you, attempting to regain his composure.

“Can I come in, maybe?” He asked, gesturing inside.

In response, you leaned against the doorframe as to block his way, tilting your head to the side. You weren’t going to entertain his nonsense, he needed to give you an explanation and you weren’t in the mood to play along.

“You better start talking now, Dean, because this isn’t something to joke about.” You warned him.

His shoulders slumped, knowing his intentions of keeping Cassandra’s escape a secret were now in the toilet. His smile vanished, replaced by a serious expression; he looked down at his feet for a moment, before his green eyes found yours again.

“Is she okay?” He asked, assuming that Cassandra must have been found by you given how angry you were. And he didn’t think you were overreacting, it was only fair.

You scoffed. “Now you care? She came in here sobbing, Dean, and thanks to whoever the fuck is up there that she came here and didn’t go around alarming the whole neighborhood! What did you have in mind?! Play Malcom two point zero?!” Your tone was sharp, even if you weren’t outright yelling.

“Of course not!” He denied, clearly and truly offended by your insinuation. “I should have handled it better, alright? I know that. But I was busy trying to to find out more about the patient Cassandra was treating, and I found something interesting.”

“I don’t give a shit about what you found; she was your priority!” You shot back. Although you knew that whatever he found was probably important, but you could bring yourself to care. “And who were you with? You’re not supposed to involve anyone else, did you forget that?”

For a moment, you saw surprise flicker across his face, like a deer caught in headlights. Maybe you weren’t supposed to know that given the look he gave you, but he quickly composed himself. “That’s my business.” He said a little too defensively. “And I have everything under control.”

“Where are you going? I’m not done.” You said the moment he turned around and grabbed his brother by the forearm just to stark walking back to his damn car. “Dean?!”

You stood there, dumbfounded by what had just happened. In the short time you’d known him, you’d never seen Dean this dismissive and it made you question whether Fury had made a mistake by choosing them for this mission. It was clear the Winchester brothers preferred to work alone together and weren’t used to be a part of a team.

And if you weren’t so blinded by anger, you might have noticed a third, unknown man wearing a beige trench coat in the backseat of their car as they drove away.

The Thing

Dabi X Reader, Keigo Takami (Hawks) X Reader, Tomura Shigaraki X Reader

Requested: @supernatural-hunter1

Request: I think I got an idea for ya, you know ‘thing’ that hand, from the Addams family? What if Dabi, Hawks, Shigaraki, met reader who’s quirk is a hunter like “Sam and Dean from Supernatural” and they’re sidekick is (instead of “thing” being a hand it’s their pet tarantula instead plus readers pet does the same things that thing does in the Addams family.)

and it’s named ‘Thing’ and reader said they got the name from the Addams family😅 and Dabi, Hawks, Shigaraki, immediately fell in love with reader, after they saw them in action with readers pet by their side?😂

Part 2 (Spinner, Mr Compress, Toga, Twice)

Warning: Spider is your best friend

Dabi

🔥 You were a vigilante, you did what you wanted when you wanted, the first time that you met Dabi you were getting rid of a couple of guys that had cornered a lady. 🔥 You were good with hand to hand combat and your quirk allowed you to see other people’s quirks so the moment that you looked at him you knew that he was strong. 🔥 You talked for a little while and he even teased you a little bit but you both seemed to get along well enough, you eventually found out what his real name was given your investigative abilities. 🔥 Dabi often found himself in the same place with you and you would give him time to escape.

Dabi sighed as he staggered through the streets, his fist slamming on to the door of the building that he had told you about, it was only a few minutes before you opened the door and raised an eyebrow. “Are you okay?” You asked. “Do I look okay?” He asked. “I mean you look like you're cooking yourself from the inside but I’m sure that’s not my place to say.” You said. “What happened?” “Nothing… Just a fight.” He answered. “Mmm.” You hummed as you stepped to the side “you can come in, if you're not afraid of spiders.” “What, you got spiders around?” He asked. “Just one, he’ll be back soon.” You said as he walked past you, “sit down if you want.” You pointed to the sofa. You walked into the bathroom and grabbed the first aid kit. “You need my help cleaning yourself up or can you do that yourself?” “I’m good.” Dabi muttered as he pulled his shirt over his head as you turned to the window when a rhythmic tapping started “what the hell is that?” “Thing.” You answered as you opened the window to see a brown tarantula the size of your hand crawl up over your shoulder where he sat producing the small chip and you looked at him and smiled “thank you big man.” You slipped the chip into the processor as the information gathered by the police on your current target. “That’s your partner?” He asked. “Problem?” You asked. “Not really… It’s smart.” Dabi said and he looked at you and nodded “that how you found out who I was?” “He had something to do with it.” You answered with a nod.

Keigo Takami/Hawks

🪶 You somehow managed to get to every villain before the heroes had these past couple of weeks and in response they had asked Hawks to catch you. 🪶 You were the perfect hunter from what he could tell, you seemed to adapt to the fights well and you knew how to track people that even they seemed to lose. 🪶 Hawks of course caught up with you with no problem and the fight that followed found a place on the news the next morning. 🪶 He was walking you out of the prison 48 hours later when they realised that they needed your help to find their man and you were the only one that seemed to know where he was.

“How are you planning on finding him?” Hawks asked as you led him back towards the hide out that you stayed in. “I’ve got my ways.” You answered as you unlocked the door and pulled him in with you. You walked over to the large computer setup, you started it up. You tapped away, opening what looked like a tracking programme and hummed as the glowing light popped up 3 blocks away from you. “Huh, he’s closer than I thought.” “That’s him?” Hawks asked. “That’s him.” You confirmed. “How do you know?” He asked. “I have someone tracking him.” You answered. “You have a partner?” He asked. “Yup…” You mumbled as he looked at you. “We’ve never seen any evidence of anyone else.” He frowned. “I keep my card close to my chest.” You answered “Now let’s go before he starts moving again.”

You got to where the dot showed on the small monitor in your hand “where are you big guy.” You muttered as you looked around, Hawks watched you before he caught sight of something dropping from the wall onto your head “there you are.” “What is that?” Hawks asked. “This is Thing, my partner.” You answered, “your man is in there.” “You're not going to help me?” He asked. “Now why would I do that? I'd never get away if I did that.” You smirked. “You can’t get away anyway the ankle bracelet tracks-” “What ankle bracelet?” You asked pulling up the leg of your jumpsuit before disappearing, Hawks knew that he couldn’t catch both of you and he couldn’t risk losing the target again, he’d have to find you later after all you wouldn’t stay hidden for long.

Tomura Shigaraki

🖐 Kurogiri had noticed you hanging around the bar and of course told Shigaraki, it took a little while for him to catch sight of you. 🖐 When they started getting ready to make a move he decided that he needed to get rid of you if the plan was going to work. 🖐 Didn’t take too long to grab you, you didn’t seem to be avoiding them and when you sat face to face with him bound to a chair, you didn’t seem worried. 🖐 Shigaraki didn’t like the confidence that you had but you proved that you deserved it after the first meeting.

“What are you doing hanging around here?” Shigaraki asked, you looked at him and shrugged. “Figured you were up to something.” You answered. “Really?” He asked. “Mmhm, at first I thought this place would be a great hideout, then you guys stole the place from right under me but I have to be honest what you are planning was far more interesting than anything I could find out there.” You explained as you felt, Thing, your tarantula climbed over your wrist. “Is that so?” He asked. “Mmhm.” You hummed. “What’s your quirk?” Shigaraki asked and you smiled as you leaned forward rubbing your wrists “careful sudden movements make me jumpy I only need 5 fingers to kill you.” “Funny I only need 1.” You shrugged as a gun fell from the ceiling to your hand before you felt the heavy weight of something on your shoulder “thanks big guy. Oh you wanted to know what my quirk was right? It’s called the perfect hunter, it basically increases my physical and mental prowess, makes me a natural born hunter with the ability to see my prey's quirk and it’s weakness.” “You said that you were looking for somewhere to stay?” He asked. “Technically.” You nodded. “Then provided you continue to be useful you’ll have a room here.” Shigaraki informed you. “Both of us?” You asked. “Does it shed?” Shigaraki answered. “It is a he and be careful he’s very temperamental.” You warned him. “In answer to your question he only sheds once a year but he does it in his own space, it won’t be anywhere near you.” “It better not or I’ll get rid of you both.” He warned. “You ever try to touch him and I’ll kill you myself, don’t forget I’m the perfect hunter and I’m pretty good at finding a weakness.” You reminded him. “Turn that anger on the heroes, you're going to need it if you want to stay here.” Shigaraki muttered as he went back to whatever he was doing and Kurogiri gestured for you to follow him to what you assumed would be your new room.

biography under the cut.

tw; addiction, death, possesion

- the son of a city guard and a mage, maverick grew up under the watchful eye of his parents as they attempted to make a peaceful life in denerim. they were relatively well-off but had no titles to their names, marking them as rather insignificant in the grand scheme of things. still, they were happy.

- harohld saw within maverick a spark of potential, a flicker of the sam fire that had burned within his own heart before joining the city guard all those years ago. once maverick was old enough to hold a weapon in his hands, he imparted the wisdom of combat upon his son, teaching him the art of swordplay and archery, hunting and tracking. maverick flourished under his father's tutelage, becoming especially adept with a bow and arrow.

- maverick's mother rhea, despite being a mage, rarely practiced magic, not wanting to be be pulled away from her family and forced into the circle or made tranquil, and the couple went so far as to hide her magical prowess from their son -- up until it was too late. a quiet evening with harohld out on the evening watch turned into rhea being taken over by a demon. terrified and with no one else to help him, maverick had no choice but to strike her down.

- harohld helped cover it up, didn't blame maverick, but was never the same. he began to funnel his pay through backroad channels in the city, acquiring lyrium from corrupt templars looking to make quick coin. maverick watched his father become a shell of himself, an angry ethically questionable man, quickly acquiring a massive debt to feed this addiction, this need for power. this eventually got him killed, a knife in the chest in the middle of their humble, downtrodden home. maverick didnt see it happen, but had become an adept enough of a tracker to know that the templars had done this.

- maverick, seeking revenge and justice, tracked down and killed the templars who murdered his father in the dead of night with his bow and arrow. however, young and naive as he was he grossly underestimated how easily it would be for the order to find him out. and thus he escaped the city, now on the run.

- he spent many years wandering the desecrated lands, finding himself in places near and far all over thedas. using his talents as a rogue and a tracker to bounty hunt, finding it a reiable  way to make some coin and quench his thirst for justice, for good.

* maverick can be recruited as a companion during this time, finding hawke's cause a worthy one to follow

- however, he was eventually caught by another in his profession, getting himself thrown in the gallows and bound for a bloody return to ferelden where he'd face his punishment.

- call it luck or call it misfortune (maverick would say the latter) but he was saved from his fate by a Grey Warden looking for some fresh blood, and what better way to have a surefire recruit than by enacting the Rite of Conscription on a prisoner? thus, maverick was spared from one fate, doomed to another

* if recruited as a companion, a choice would happen before the climax of act 3. hawke can choose to turn maverick over to the authorities or try to protect him by killing the bounty hunter. *maverick is conscripted by the grey wardens whether or not hawke turns him in. if hawke does turn him in, the grey warden will show up when maverick is about to board a prisoner ship to ferelden. if hawke fights off the bounty hunters, the templars will eventually catch up to him immediately following the events of da2, and he is conscripted then.

- for years maverick spent serving the wardens, researching dark spawn and traveling the deep roads, contemplating his own mortality with his now shortened lifespan -- until a chance encounter had him saving a small group of travelers from a hoarde of wayward darkspawn. impressed with his valour, his strength and strategy, one of the travelers revealed herself to be leliana, offering him a place in the chantry's spy network. he agrees and leaves the wardens.

- in the years preceeding inquisition, maverick proves himself and eventually rises through the ranks to become lelianna's right hand. he is by her side through it all, acting as a possible companion and secondary advisor to the inquisitor. 

*as stated, maverick is a companion from the beginning of inquisition as leliana's right hand, and does not need to be recruited.

- soft-hearted, kind, with a penchant for justice, maverick allows his morals to guide him yet does not shy away from brutality when necessary. however, if there is a more diplomatic option, he will always advocate for that. those who get to know him are able to see the happy-go-lucky nature of the young man who only ever wanted to do good in the world, harrowed by circumstance. maverick is simply trying to make something of himself, to choose his own fate in the time he has left before the calling eventually takes him

Hart and Hunter - Chapter 17 - Part 2

*Warning Adult Content*

Dane Hunter

Rian Halloran waits until Ian and Sam have left before calling in our gruesome find. 

Soon, police and other emergency personnel swarm over the scene and Halloran joins the fray. 

Julian and I retreat to a safe distance, buy ourselves a couple of coffees at the nearby café and find an out-of-the-way spot to observe. 

A great deal of time is spent ensuring the tunnels are safe to enter before anyone enters them and I smile as I remember I'm no longer bound by red tape.

Eventually, someone declares the tunnels safe and a team of police and paramedics enter.

Sometime later, the paramedics emerge carrying a long, lumpy shape in a body bag. 

Chief Laura Coleridge arrives in the meantime and after speaking with Halloran, joins Julian and I where we wait at the borders of the scene.

"Alright, Hunter. How do you explain this one?" she asks, one grey, hawk-like brow lifting at a sharp angle.

"Man is cremated... man's body found." 

"I dunno, Chief," I say, which is true enough.

"Maybe his body never made it to the crematorium... maybe his widow buried a bag of wood ash instead." 

"Purly and Sons is a reputable funeral home," Coleridge says.

In a softer voice, she adds...

"I know first-hand. They took care of my Mom's service some years ago." 

I chew my lip, unsure what to say.

Coleridge would never have revealed something so personal when we worked together.

I don't want to seem insensitive and yet she must know that a single, personal anecdote does not a valid alibi make. 

Before I can arrange my thoughts into a coherent sentence, Julian beats me to the punch. 

"You're still gonna question them, though, right?" he asks.

"And Mrs. Lagrange?" 

Coleridge gives him a sharp-edged smile.

"What exactly am I paying you for, Mr. Hart?" she asks.

"Not to hang around crime scenes drinking coffee, I think." 

Julian sips his latte before answering.

"Well, this case might be a little more hazardous than we initially thought," he says, casually drawing attention to his cast. 

Coleridge glances over her shoulder at Halloran, who stands in the midst of things.

His arm in a sling now, though his shoulder hadn't seemed to bother him in the caves. 

"So I see," she says.

"Alright. Double your rate, if you want. I'll get it approved. Just don't let me down." 

She wanders off to speak with Halloran and Julian shoots me a wink.

"See?" he says.

"I always knew we'd make a good team." 

I try and fail to muster a smile and his levity fades. 

"You think there's really a second 'skin-changer?'" he asks quietly. 

"We should assume there is," I say.

"And 'changer' or not, someone got a body out of the morgue and destroyed it before anyone noticed something amiss." 

He sighs.

"Yeah but from what Ian said, it could be anyone and we wouldn't know." 

"Not anyone," I correct.

"It's got to be someone with the proper credentials... someone who could fix paperwork and get a body released. That narrows the field considerably." 

He scans the busy scene before us and lifts his brows.

Any one of the dozen or so people here could enter a morgue without raising suspicion and suddenly all of them seem newly suspicious. 

After a moment, Julian tugs at my arm.

"Come on. Let's get out of here."

He turns away and heads for the car and after a moment's hesitation, I follow. 

He's unusually quiet on the ride home.

I fight the urge to ask if he's okay but as I pull up and park before our home, I can't hold back any longer. 

"Everything all right?" 

Rather than his usual quick reply or casual brush off, he doesn't answer and stares out the window in silence for so long I'm not sure he heard me.

"Julian?" 

He sighs and turns to look at me. 

"I don't know what the hell is going on, Dane. One day, I'm just a dude with a werewolf boyfriend... then I'm Fae. Now I'm 'Fae royalty' or whatever and descended from a Wolf-slayer." 

"You're not your ancestors," I say, though my dad might disagree.

"You're you." 

He shakes his head.

"I just keep thinking about the Wolves that lived here, before. Who were they? How would they feel about us, about me, forming a Pack here with you?" 

I consider how to answer him but he speaks again before I can get my words in order. 

"I keep thinking about the skin-changer, too... the one that might still be out there... and whoever its victim might be. You're right, Dane... we can't change what happened in the past but we can do our best in the present. And whatever 'gift' this land has to offer, I think you need to take it... take the Alpha here and be the strongest Wolf you can be. We need to find that 'changer' figure out how it's all connected to Rhiannon and stop stuff like this from happening here again." 

I digest his words for a moment before answering. 

"We still need to wait for the full moon," I say.

"But there's plenty we can do in the meantime. Interview the shop-owners and Lagrange's family. The funeral home people, too. I'll also need a second Wolf here, besides Ingrid." 

"Who?" he asks. 

I think for a moment.

There's my Mom and Dad and six other siblings to choose from but I know who I want at my side for this... someone who can help us with the case, too. 

"I have just the Wolf in mind," I say.

GALILEO

(Cautious) We? What do you mean –? Oh. Sam, who is this?

SAM

This is Little Mouse, our new roommate.

GALILEO

New roommate. Right. And we discussed this when?

SAM

Oh, we didn’t! I found them on the way home. In fact, I saved them from being eaten by a snake. You should’ve seen me, Gal! The snake was all ‘hiss!’ and I was all ‘bam! Wa-pow!’

GALILEO

(Unimpressed, unconvinced) Uh-huh. I’m sure you gave ‘em blood and vinegar.

SAM

Sure did! All that fighting made me hungry, too. I’m going to fetch some snacks for us. Why don’t you introduce yourself to Little Mouse while I’m gone?

[Sam hops away]

GALILEO

(Sigh) I guess there’s no way around it. Looks like you’ll be staying with us, Little Mouse. I’m Galileo. Do you have a name, or are you just called Little Mouse?

I see. Well, just wait. I’m sure one will come to you in time.

My name? It was a gift from the man who owned this observatory. He took me in when I was just a kit in the trash, hungry and without a mother. He cleaned me up, fed me, and let me stay here. He was a good man, and he knew everything about the stars. It used to be the local school kids would come every week to learn from him. I loved those field trip days. I remember how the kids would scramble to feed me treats and astronaut ice cream. None of them had seen a raccoon as a pet before. Then Jim would set up his projector and the kids would ooh and aahh over the stars. It was great.

Yes, stars. Those lights in the sky? Have you… not seen them before?

Huh. Well, I suppose that makes sense if you’ve spent your entire life in the pet shop. Here, let me show you.

This is a telescope. Put your eye up to it and look through.

Amazing isn’t it? See those three brightest lights? Those are Betelgeuse, Procyon, and Sirius, and they make up the Winter Triangle. Here, let me just adjust this a bit… There!

That’s Orion, the great hunter. Those are his hounds, Greater Dog and Lesser Dog. Look, the big one is chasing a rabbit.

(Chuckles) Don’t tell Sam about that one.

The stars are how the heavens tell us stories. That’s what Jim always told me.

(Sadly) He died a few months back. Ever since then, the observatory has been abandoned. Only Sam and I ever come around here anymore. And you now, I guess.

It’s alright, Little Mouse, it was just his time. There’s nothing to be done about that. I just have to accept that he’s up there writing his own stories into the stars now. At least, that’s what I like to believe.

[Distant thump]

SAM

Ow!

GALILEO

Uh-oh. Sammy must be having trouble with the snacks. Come on, let’s go see if we can help them. Then we can fix you up a room.

Of course. This is your home now, after all.

You’re welcome, Little Mouse. Welcome home.

☆ Destiel + Curses

Don’t we all wanna know about the crazy hunts? Don’t we all wanna learn about Dean and Cas turning into kids, still determined to “fight baddies”, or about Sam’s time as a woman? And what about Dean’s struggle to deal with his feelings for a certain blue-eyed guy right in the middle of all this strangeness that is their normal life?

--All fic links go to our tagged reviews--

Angelhawke by almaasi [Explicit, 407k words]

A Dean/Cas Fantasy-Drama AU, set in a medieval world where two men are separated by a curse: every sunrise and sunset, both are eternally bound to transform into animals. Every night when darkness falls, Dean Winchester becomes a wolf, and his human mind is lost until the dawn. As the sun rises, his lover Castiel becomes a hawk. Their story has been the same for five years - until the day that a young thief named Sam stumbles into their twisted lives. Without even realising it, he becomes a part of their destiny, their paths entwined in prophecy and fate. Together with a few old friends, they set off on a journey to break the curse, but it won’t be easy. To pass the time, Dean and Castiel take turns to recount their past to Sam, narrating the tale of how they met, how they formed their profound bond, and how they found themselves wanting what no man should ever want: the touch of another man. ‘Angelhawke’ is a saga of forbidden love, friendship, and magic - but above all, family. Partially based on the 1985 movie ‘Ladyhawke’.

Cursed by Destielshipper4Cas [Explicit, 17k words]

Dean’s dick has been cursed and Castiel, best healer witch this side of the woods, is the only one who can help. Only lifting the curse turns out to be more difficult than expected.

Cursed or Not by Ltleflrt [Explicit, 110k words]

While experimenting with magic when he was a kid, Sam accidentally cursed Dean. Now, Dean is forced to wear a spelled amulet constantly, or he’ll turn into a random animal. For a little over a decade, he’s learned to live with the curse, and has even found it useful in some cases, but he sure would be happier without it. When he meets a witch named Castiel, he’s offered a deal. Instead of assuming all witches are bad, Dean can spend a season getting to know him. If at the end of the season, Dean still thinks he’s evil Castiel will send him away with his memory wiped of the whole experience. But if he learns that Castiel is not the monster Dean assumes he is, he’ll lift Dean’s curse. It’s an offer Dean can’t bring himself to pass up.

He’s Kind of a Hairy Fairy by almaasi [Explicit, 24k words]

Dean agreed to help Sam run this summer camp, but he didn’t know he’d have to share a cabin and a bed with his own best friend. No biggie, though. It’s platonic. Except Cas goes and confesses his love for the sake of honesty. Dean’s not ready to say it back. The only way anyone’s getting an “I love you too” out of him is if some meddling witch curses him with fairy wings, and in order to break the spell he has to give in to his heart’s true desires. And THAT’s not gonna happen at a perfectly normal forest camp in Idaho… right?

Just Your Heart, In Exchange For Mine by noxsoulmate [Mature, 46k words]

Dean owns a bakery and Castiel loves his pie. This could be such a cute little bakery love story – if it weren’t for the fact that one was a retired hunter and the other one a powerful witch. There’s also the matter of the black little cat Dean finds in front of his bakery one cold and rainy night. Not to forget the crazy witch on the loose, ripping out other witches’ hearts.

Moonflower by K_K_TiBal [Teen, 18k words]

Castiel is not a very good witch. He’s just not. He struggles with potions, illusions, divination - everything that makes a witch respectable, and his familiar - Dean - definitely deserves better than him. When Dean falls under a curse that seems to affect his shape-shifting abilities, Castiel and Dean begin to run out of money, and Castiel decides the best thing they can do is go after a rare Moonflower to help get themselves back on their feet. The journey could be dangerous, especially considering Castiel’s less-than-ideal abilities and Dean’s curse, but with a little luck, it will all be worth it in the end.

Okay, Let’s Go by Nejinee [Explicit, 25k words]

Sometimes a hunt goes awry and turns into something bordering on the insane. Sometimes, shit just gets weird. These are the excerpts, the hunts no one ever talks about, because Dean doesn’t like to reminisce about the time he was toddler-sized. And Sam’s just gonna bury the memory of the time he was female for a hot second. And Cas is such a dork sometimes, maybe Dean just wants to keep that nugget to himself? Not every hunt is perfect, but who the hell ever expects them to be?

Sparks by vipjuly [Explicit, 21k words]

The creepy house on the corner has been abandoned for years, everyone says. It’s ramshackle and decrepit, the yard overgrown, the wrought iron fence bent and broken in some places. The adults in the neighborhood have asked the city to do something about that eyesore for so long, but the city insists that someone is paying property taxes on the house, therefore they cannot do anything about it. So, everyone ignores it and pretends it doesn’t exist. They definitely don’t go anywhere near it, either. Dean, though. Dean is drawn to it as if by gravity. Little by little, Dean repairs what he can. The monster inside the house ain’t so bad, either. Y'know. For a monster.

The Lover’s Song by FriendofCarlotta [Explicit, 48k words]

Running an independent bookstore in one of the less glamorous California towns doesn’t make you rich, but Dean Winchester’s life is pretty much perfect anyway. He’s got amazing friends, a whip-smart brother and a husband he loves more than anything: novelist Castiel Novak. Then one night, driving home from work, Dean accidentally runs over a cat. The cat’s grieving owner curses Dean: his beloved will lose all memory of him, and Dean has only a year and a day to bring the memories back. Of course, there’s no such thing as a curse. Is there?

The Purple Shield by blackimpala [Explicit, 69k words]

In Spokane, Washington, Dean and Castiel finish a case with a powerful witch. Ready to go back home, they start driving back to the bunker, only to find that a big purple shield is blocking their way, not letting them leave. Forced to remain in that town, Dean and Castiel go to a cabin, where they will have to stay until the two of them find a way to break the spell with the help of Sam and Eileen, who are in the bunker, unable to reach them. In normal circumstances, Dean wouldn’t mind being stuck in such a lovely place with his best friend, but he is secretly in love with Cas and there is only one bed, so things aren’t going to be that easy for Dean.

What Has Eight Tentacles and Isn’t Allowed to Eat Pie? by Annie D [Teen, 16k words]

Dean watched an anime porn about this once, but real life turns out to be way less interesting. Or, the one where Dean gets turned into an octopus.
