I know Iâve posted about this before but like I actually donât think that Megatronâs actions in the Functionist Universe make him a hero at all, at least not from a meta perspective. Because all he did was go to an alternate universe and get a free do-over card where he got to live out his fantasy of doing a revolution âproperlyâ and even become a medic like he always wanted to. The only person he lost that was actually from this universe was Terminus-- the other Impactor and Orion were just that, alternate universe versions that Megatron had no real connection to besides âtheyâre alternate universe versions of guys I was friends/complicated rivals with.â The problem he solved came from a DIFFERENT UNIVERSE ENTIRELY and did nothing to make up anything from his own universe that he actually fucked up and wronged the people in.
If the Functionist Universe didnât exist (and it only existed due to one guy fucking around with time travel) then Megatronâs actions as a âgood guyâ would have literally just been killing the DJD, and even that is SUPER lukewarm because 1. Megatronâs hesitation to do battle directly endangered the rest of the crew (people he was responsible for) and 2. He literally made the DJD and then discarded them (especially Tarn) like trash, like they were just rabid dogs he had forgotten to put down until they came threatening his soul-searching journey and his crew.
#squiggposting#negativity#sorry to get a bit vitriolic lol but#there was this meta post i saw comparing OP and megs in terms of heroic moments defeating an ultimate evil or something along those lines#and i was like dont even compare megs and OP in terms of heroism honestly LMAO#OP did more to face the cybertronian legacy of colonialism or racism than megs ever did#and OP is the guy who was fucking pro organic and saw them as equals his whole fucking life!!!! before the war even!!!!#dont even talk to me about megs JRO had to invent a whole alternate universe to give him people to save#the only thing megs did to make up for what he did was submit to going to trial at the end lmao#OP was the one doing shit like investing decepticon murders#stopping galva and the remnants of the decepticons from trying to colonize earth again#etc etc#i'm sorry but get out of my face. do not even say megs name in the same sentence as OP and the word 'hero'#barber's writing was boring and tedious as shit but at least he wrote OP as an actual hero#who didn't get a whole alternate universe for him to fix and become a magical revolutionary to fight an enemy who already died in this unive

a video call for help from @haya-orouq19 who is in gaza
[Transcript: Please don't scroll if you want to help a family in Gaza. Hey everyone, this is Haya Orouq, I am 18 years old from Gaza City. Today is the 167th day of the war in Gaza City. And through this war we lost our house, my university was bombed. My whole childhood neighborhood area was completely damaged. We have been displaced to three different places in search of a safer place but unfortunately there's no safer place in Gaza. Everywhere there's bombing, everywhere is dangerous, so we are now displaced in Deir al-Balah. And me and my family lost everything, we have nothing left here in Gaza.
And my mom is very sick also, she is suffering from Lupus and because she has Lupus, she is a kidney failure patient in need of an urgent treatment and care outside of Gaza. The hospitals here is so poor and bad and the quality of her treatment is getting worse and worse because the quality of the hospitals is bad, because of the conditions of the war. So please guys, help my family, we deserve to- we deserve a decent life, we deserve to start a new beginning and deserve a new life.
So, here's the link in the bio and you can help me by sharing the video, repost, comment, like, whatever you can do can help. Every one dollar can make a difference. You can make life-changing difference to my family, you can save my family, you can save my mom. I am also trying to reach out to as many celebrities who are interested in helping people like me by making videos about the family that needs help in Gaza, like me. So I will mention them in the comment and please go to them, ask them to share my videos, and to make a video about my campaign and ask them to share my link. This is so urgent, I need your help guys because my account is prevented from receiving and sending messages so I can't reach out with them. I will mention them so please help me, and help my family.
I can't bear seeing my mom struggling with death because she has a dangerous disease which is Lupus and she is a kidney failure patient and I can't bear seeing my older sister suffering from hunger. So please guys, you can do it and please make #HelpHayasFamily. Share this video, whatever you can do can help. You can share the link as widely as possible, you can share the video. End of transcript.]

warnings:Â endgame aftermath, death, parental loss, isolation, suicide attempt (but magical?), it gets better - I promise
word count:Â 7.1k
masterlist
a/n: Hey guys. This is going to be a bit longer than my usual notes, but I feel like I should explain why I've been gone for so long and why this story is a lot sadder than my usual ones. My community has been riddled with tragedy recently as we've lost a lot of people to suicide this past year, some of which have been as young as middle school age. One of my friends died by suicide a couple months ago. I can't express to you guys how hard it's been trying to deal with the pain and the guilt his death has caused me and my loved ones. So many days have passed where I wish I could've been a better friend for him while he was here. It hurts more knowing that other people are hurting too. Writing this was the best way for me to cope for many reasons. I wanted to write about how I'm feeling and honor my friend in some way even if it's through a silly little fanfiction. I know I'm late, but I also wanted to honor one of my favorite characters, Tony Stark as he canonically died this past October. That being said, if you are struggling please, I implore you, talk to someone. There are so many people on this planet who would be so torn without you. My dms are always a safe space if you need anything at all <3
Also I'd like to thank Gracie Abrams for her music that I had on repeat the entire time I was writing this. I hope you like it!
âI am Iron Man.â
The words replayed in your head, over and over like a broken record with no one to turn it to a new tune. Thatâs exactly how you felt. So alone in your grief that even if miraculously every wish you'd ever made in the whole of your existence had been granted, it still wouldnât be enough to make you happy again. To make you feel anything besides the constant regret and incessant grief that anchored you down as you wasted away in your bed.
It had been exactly a week since the passing of the great Tony Stark. Everyone else in the compound had mourned their coworker, riddled by a somewhat lesser version of your sadness for only a few days after his death. Itâs not as if their grief had been washed away as if it never stained their cheeks with tears or weighed down their hearts with sorrow, but it eased much quicker than yours and before long they could continue their duties. Everything was so much harder for you because Tony hadnât just been a coworker. He was your father.
You relieved every memory you had of him like bittersweet torture. You remembered when he held you as a little girl, wiping up a bloodied knee. When he discovered you had powers and helped you control them. Later on when he banned you from joining in on the Avengerâs Civil War and afterwards when he thanked you for sneaking in to help anyway. You could almost feel his comforting embrace as if it was only yesterday that he was assuring you before a failed battle against the mad Titan Thanos, the same one that left you dusted and missing your fatherâs last five years on Earth. And finally, of course, you remember his last moments all too well. It played out before you like the tragic ending of a stage play.Â
âLet me do it,â you shouted over the sound of war cries and carnage that surrounded you on the packed battlefield. âI can take it!â
You were almost certain that your power, your immeasurable magic, could handle the debilitating strength of the Infinity Stones making you the most reasonable choice for snapping Thanos and his army out of existence, but your father refused to risk losing his eldest.
âNo,â he breathed, the metal plate shielding his chest rising and falling from the heat of the action. There was only one way to succeed, only one way to put a stop to the destruction of the universe. It had to be him. âI wonât risk losing you, not while youâre still so young. You have so much life ahead of you.â
âNot without you!â you cried, a tear streaming from your eye.
There wasnât much time for your conversation as the world was moments away from being wiped of its human history, but despite the odds your father pulled you into a tight hug, as if he knew it would be the last. You both did.
âYou are the strongest person Iâve ever known and Iâm so proud of what youâve become already.â he smiled when you finally pulled apart.
âI need you dad,â you sobbed, still reluctant to let him leave you. With the threat of his death, suddenly Thanosâ defeat didnât matter anymore. Not nearly as much as having your father by your side. âIâm not ready.â
Your dad looked down on you with the saddest of smiles, but if any part of him was upset about his decision, he made no other hint toward it. He just held you close for as long as possible and comforted you in the way that you could always count on him for. In the way, it hit you, that you could never count on him for again. But yet, in the face of death, he cradled you close and spoke in his signature fatherly tone: assertive yet on the edge of softness.
âNo oneâs ever ready -,â he answered truthfully. â- but I know you can handle it. You always do.â
You looked up at him as he finally pulled away and headed towards the purple giant, but not before turning to you for one final declaration.
âI love you, junior, to the edge and back again.â
And then he was gone. You never got the chance to say it back.
Yours was the last name he uttered before his heart stopped beating and the light on his suit went out. By then Pepper had already said her goodbyes and you both were huddled close to his body, weeping as the other Avengers knelt around you in honor of your father. Peter was hunched behind you, one hand on your shoulder while the other worked to wipe away his own tears. Oh Peter, you had your father to thank for him.
It was Tony who was credited with setting you up with your long term boyfriend, Peter Parker, even if it was a complete accident. You two had gotten acquainted on a fateful plane ride to Germany and eventually ended up together after many failed attempts at confessing your feelings. There was something about him that had you smitten with him from your first encounter, your liking only strengthened when you learned that your father approved. Heâd been with you through thick and thin and even now, Peter was the only person who could even remotely share your pain besides Pepper. Tony was like his father too.
Heâd taken care of you ever since the incident. Brought you food and water, helped you dress in your black attire for the funeral, laid with you in your bed each night to calm you whenever you awoke in a nightmarish terror. He showed his love for you prevailing over his grief in the most selfless of ways and yet all you had managed to do since you fatherâs funeral was stand to use the restroom every once in a while. It piled on more weight that your poor soul could already take. You were nothing, but a miserable burden now.
The door to your room opened with squealing hinges as Peter stepped in, returning from school where he had spent the morning reuniting with your shared friends and finding out when the official return date was. You were supposed to join him, but instead you hadnât moved an inch since he left. It wasnât as if you wanted to waste the entire day in your lonely sheets again. You yearned for everything to go back to how it was; when Peter was happy and you could share it with him. When your father used to smile upon the two teens he didnât mean to bring together. When your father was alive.
âHey,â he said, softly as if not to startle you from your endless torturous pondering. He set something down on your dresser, a small stack of papers he must have gathered from the school, and removed his fall coat before sauntering over to you. The bed creaked and shifted under his weight as he took a seat next to you. âGood news, we donât have to go back until the next semester so we get a break until January. Ned was asking about you. He wants to know how youâre doing.â
You turned your head to look at him, your eyes red-rimmed from all of your crying and your lips cracked and dry.
âWhat did you tell him?â you croaked, your voice hoarse from under use. There was little to talk about and no one else to talk to whenever Peter wasnât around. Pepper had visited you once, but with Morgan to look after, she couldnât spare much time for her late husbandâs grieving daughter. Youâd seen Happy a couple times as well, but he needed his own time to recover and reflect on his past time with his best friend.
Peter was gentle as he tucked some of the hair strands snot cemented to your jaw behind your ear and cupped your cheek in his palm. He was cold from the autumn chill outside, but his hand ignited the same soothing heat that his touch always brought forth.
âI said you were recovering,â he answered truthfully. âAnd that itâs different for everyone. And no matter how long it takes, Iâm here for you every step of the way.â
The ghost of a smile graced your lips and had it not felt like it stopped beating after losing your father, your heart may have fluttered in its cavity in your chest.
âThanks Peter,â you curled closer to him in the most sincere of ways. âBut Iâm afraid itâs going to be a while before I can get up to see Ned again. Give him my best.â
âTake your time. Iâm sure he understands.â Peter assured before pulling off his flannel and laying down beside you to wrap you in his arms, allowing you to tuck your face in his chest. As unhappy as you were, all the swirling emotions of suffering were always suppressed by the sound of Peterâs heart and the feel of his body around yours. You stayed like that for a while, holding each other before Peter broke the silence as it neared time for your midday meal.
âI think you should come with me today,â Peter suggested, rising to run his daily lunch retrieval before running a loving hand through your hair. You couldnât understand how he hadnât gotten sick of you yet. You hadnât been able to wash in over a week. âItâs not good for you to stay here all day long. You need to start moving.â
His voice was full of worry, though he wasnât overbearing. He wanted the best for you, itâs all he ever wanted really.
âI donât know Peter, I donât think I can.â you sighed as tears started to fill your eyes again. How could anyone stand to be around you when you were being so pathetic. You wished there was a way to erase your pain, anything to bring you to your normal self again.
âIt's okay baby,â Peter hugged you into a tight embrace, kissing your tears as they fell in slow salty streams. âI know it hurts, I feel it too. But I read somewhere that the best thing to do is keep a consistent routine. Maybe you should start today. Come get lunch with me.â
You wanted to agree, but there was no part of you that could move from the weight of your grief. It pressed you down, gravity multiplied by the mass of your sadness as it consumed you. It felt as if only a miracle could save you now.
âIâm so sorry.â you stated with remorse, but Peter made no move to share his disappointment if he had any at all. Instead he leaned down from his seated position and placed his lips on your forehead, a gesture as if to say that all was alright.
âPlease donât cry, y/n. Itâs okay.â he assured you before standing to leave and get you something that you figured you probably wouldnât even eat very much of.
âIâll be right back,â he promised, turning the handle of your door to leave before looking back at you sprawled on your bed. Suddenly, as if he had recalled the cure to the rainiest of days, he expression shifted to one of great excitement as he stopped back into your room.
âI almost forgot,â he began. âDoctor Strange was here earlier. He wanted me to tell you heâs offering some meditation sessions for you if youâre interested. He said theyâd be good for your powers and that they might help you feel better if you want to think about it. Heâs free at 8 tomorrow.â
You nearly perked up at the sound of the manâs name, picking up your head to cast a last longing glance at Peter as he waited for a parting word.
âThanks,â you managed. âIâll let you know.â
And off Peter went to get you both something to eat.
You werenât sure if he knew how dangerous it was for you to be left with your thoughts, how the mention of the magic doctor sprouted a myriad of mystical ideas all aimed at the same goal that would erase your eternal lonesome aching. How to bring your father back. By the time Peter returned with his hands full of two homemade sandwiches and more sweets than the two of you could ever finish in one sitting, your mind had been made up and you were ready to set the plan in motion.
The following evening was your first time out of the confines of your rooms for days. Peter had helped you greatly with all the tasks you did not have the mental power to do all on your own. He had brushed your hair and made your bed and before you left in one of the less expensive cars held on Avengerâs campus, he sent you off adorned with one of his favorite sweatshirts, a peck on the forehead and enough I love youâs to last more than a lifetime.
You pulled the sleeve of Peterâs sweatshirt over your palm as you drove off, using the cloth to wipe away fresh tears that had fallen after you left your boyfriendâs loving gaze. Youâd always been an overthinker, but your bad habits crept up on you worse in your unbreakable stage of sadness. Especially in your fatherâs favorite car.
You didnât understand why he hadnât left you already. Maybe he would. Peter had offered to join you at Strangeâs, but after you insisted you had to go alone, he made plans to go help his Aunt May figure out their apartment situation as the pair had been inadvertently kicked out after being gone for so many years. Youâd almost forgotten he used to split his nights between the compound and his own bedroom. Recently heâd only stay with you.
He promised to be back before dinner so that the two of you could keep up your progress, but an unsolicited voice within you convinced you that he wouldnât want to return. You werenât good enough for him anymore, not like you used to be. Your plan was better for the both of you and as you pulled up to the familiar building on Bleecker Street, all the pieces started to fall into place.
You stepped up to the door, raising your fist to knock only for the door to crack open by itself as if to invite you in. You waited for the familiar sternness of Doctor Strangeâs voice to greet you once you were past the stone floored foyer, but only wisps of the autumn breeze caught your ear.Â
âStrange?â you called, your voice still not stable enough to be louder than a whispery dialogue. You were met with no response. It was just like you had planned. The wizard wasnât home.
You felt a strong tug towards the room of your desires, the forbidden library. It was as if fate was leading you or some other force from above, another sign that you were meant to do it.
Your steps were more sure than they had been in days as you made your way to the self, passing any magical fire walls with the sheer unfiltered strength of your powers. Strange once told you that they were guided by your emotion, the quintessential essence of every magic holder even to people like you and Wanda Maximoff who were outside of his world protecting wizard cult. It was easier than it should have been, like slicing paper with a katana, you broke each enchantment until all that was left was the cool leather cover of the book you were looking for. The book with every answer you needed inside its ancient yellowing pages, but you only needed the spell that would revive your father. Locating it near the middle of the book, your tore out the page and turned back to your car, leaving the Sanctum with the same unhurried pace you had entered it with. There was no stopping you now.
Peter was only an half an hour late for your agreed meet up time when he arrived at the campus. He expected youâd be in your room as per usual and as he made his way to your door, the excitement of getting to hold you and talk about your first day out of the campus since the funeral built up in his chest. He wasnât sure if any accomplishment in the world could make him as proud as he was of you. With two brown paper bags of groceries in his hand, he couldnât wait to shower you in the affection that you deserved with all of your favorite snacks, enough to share of course.
âY/n,â he smiled, using his webbing to open your door handle only to find, much to his disappointment, that you were nowhere to be found.
He checked all over campus, leaving the bags by your bed. No one had seen you since youâd left and the spot where the car youâd taken was still empty, the normally pristine concrete covered in fallen crisp maroon leaves. It didnât make any sense. Where could you possibly have gone?
âY/n!â he called, circling the perimeter of the campus looking for you. There was still no sign of your reappearance. âY/n- oh. Hi Ms. Maximoff.â Peter forced a strained smile as he nearly bumped into the woman.
âPeter, weâve been over this,â Wanda answered, her voice calm. âYou can call me Wanda.â
Like you, the witch hadnât been doing the best in recent days as she had lost something just as valuable as a father: her partner. While she occasionally had days where the ground wouldâve been lucky to feel the grace of her step, her superhero duties had kept her from spending each day hidden from society. She had a different way of coping, but like others, she seemed to start getting back into routine again.
âRight, sorry Wanda.â Peter apologized.
âWhat are you doing out here?â inquired the witch in her native Sokovian accent, always intuitive. âIs something wrong?â
âItâs y/n. I canât find her anywhere and we agreed to meet back here nearly - an hour ago!â Peter pulled up his coat sleeve to check the time on his watch, the face of which bore a picture of him and your father from only a few months before the snap. It had been a birthday gift, one of his favorites in fact, though it couldn't top what you had given him the same year: a lego set and your first kiss.
âI didnât know that she got out of bed. Thatâs a big step!âÂ
âYes it is and we were going to celebrate tonight, but she hasnât come back yet which is really not like her.â worried Peter.
âWhere did she go?â
âStrangeâs. He was going to give her a meditation lesson for her powers.â
Confused, Wanda's eyebrow furrowed and she crossed her arms over her chest. âDoesnât she know how to use them already?â
âYes, but he thought it would help her manage her grief. Working out is a pretty common method, but she hates going to the gym so he figured some meditation would be better for her and -â
âWait, hold on. Did she go to him this morning?â
âYes and she was supposed to be back around noon, but itâs nearly six and sheâs still gone.â Peter explained.
âPeter!â Wanda chided. She couldn't believe he could make such a grave mistake.
âWhat?â
âStrange hasnât been at the Sanctum all day!â
âWhat?! Where is he?â
âDo I look like a wizard to you?" the witch gestured to her casual leggings and cardigan pairing that drastically differed from Strange's usual eccentric costumes. "How should I know?â
As if summoned by the topic of conversation, a figure appeared in the distant grass, hovering over the blades until he was close enough to be able to walk. His cape that flowed in the breeze like a blood red stream with a mind of its own was a dead give away. Doctor Strange had indeed arrived in the flesh.
âParker,â he greeted, though he did not smile. âIs Ms. Stark ready for our lesson?â
Peterâs eyes went wide as he realized his mistake.
âOh no.â he muttered, shaking his head in defeat. He was met with confusion from the wizard.
âNo?â Strange repeated. âWe agreed upon 8 didn't we? I know I'm a little early, but I assumed she wouldn't be busy. Didnât you let her know I was coming?â
âYes,â Peter confirmed. âI told her to be ready and then I sent her off to your place at 8⌠am.â
âWhat?!â Strange exclaimed as he summoned a portal to appear leading directly to his found home on Bleecker Street. He stepped through the fiery ring, a silent invitation for the others to follow as he hurried passed your car, up the steps, and into the door which did not part of him the same way it had earlier. Inside he was met with the most frightful of discovers accompanied by the looming feeling of doom as the situation became clear.
The Sanctum, unguarded with his absence, lay littered with books that had fallen from their homes on his shelfâs yet one stood out from all the others. It laid on the floor open with its pages to the ground while every other book was shut. Levitating it with the simple flick of his wrist, a horrifying sight awaited Strange as he turned it over. One of the pages in the sacred book was missing.
âDo you know how serious this is?!â Strange exclaimed and although Peter at first took it as a barbed criticism aimed directly at him, he was able to distinguish Strangeâs tone from when he was reprimanding. This was a separate kind of worry, the sort of tone that he had used heavily on the fated spaceship you three had been stuck in until you landed on Titan, Thanosâ home world, nearly five years ago. Treachery was afoot and if your powers were involved, the whole fabric of your current reality could change.
âWhich one did she take?â Wanda pointed to the book, clearly noticing the giant tear in its center.
Strangeâs voice answered, heavy with concern. âThe revival spell.â
âYou donât think she knows, do you? She canât possibly know how to conjure it.â asked Wanda, the same concern for their future written all over her face.
âThatâs exactly what I think.â Strange confirmed.
âWhat?â Peter asked. âWhat are you guys talking about?â
âThere are many types of magic, Parker, and the Sanctum, the building where you sent your girlfriend, is full of all of them, good and bad alike. Every spell comes with a price, the bigger the spell, the bigger the price and the spell she took comes with one of the biggest prices there is to pay.â
âThink about it, Peter,â Wanda paled. âWhat does y/n want most in the world right now?â
It hit Peter harder than fresh fallen hail. You were going to try to bring your father back.
âWe have to find her. Now.â
Strange tried to use his sling ring to appear wherever you were, but in your grief, the extent of your powers had grown massively. Intentionally or not, you managed to prevent even the most powerful of wizards from using his Sling Ring to access your location.
âShe's blocked me out.â Strange frowned. âWeâre going to have to track her on foot.â
âShe canât be far,â Peter agreed. âShe always takes the shortest path whenever she wants something.â It was one of the many things he loved about you: your ability to turn any taxing task into something much simpler. You were one of the cleverest people he knew. He just hoped it didnât work in your favor this time.
It was Wanda who had the idea of tracking your magic. She led them to the nearest withering woodland area, where trees with bare branches and dying leaves sprawled endlessly. It was the perfect place to perform dark magic, away from the unyielding eyes of society. The trio didnât hesitate to run in.
The further they got, the closer you felt especially to Peter despite the fact that he was the only one without his own source of magic. If he lost you tonight, he feared heâd never feel any sort of magic ever again.
They were only half an acre in when Wanda and Strange called out in anguish, the witch falling to her knees while Strange stayed standing, pounding the air with his fist as his trying to break through an invisible barrier though it was to no avail. Whatever was holding him back, it wasnât fading anytime soon.
âKeep going, Parker!â he shouted, urging Peter forward. âYouâre the only one who can stop her. The spell will only allow that which she loves.â
âHow do I do it?â Peter shouted. âHow do I stop the spell?â
âThe page,â Wanda replied, quicker than Strange could as his reply was easy for her to access. âYou have to tear it apart.â
Without wasting a second more, Peter sprung back towards where he could feel you, running without fatigue as his superhuman endurance supplied him with plenty of energy.
It was only a minute later that he caught his first sign of you. There was a break in the tree line out of which a bright amber glow poured like an incandescent warning. It was a dramatic contrast from the normal comforting emerald greens of your magic, but it was you nonetheless and Peter didnât stop until he was so close he had to shade his eyes from the light.
If it werenât for the dark nature of what you were doing, Peter wouldâve considered it one of the most beautiful events heâd ever seen take place. He wasnât sure if the circle of trees that surrounded you had been a natural formation or one you made for the sake of the spell, but he was sure the way they seemed to bend to your will, despite the hard wood of their birch trunks, had to be because of your power. In the center of it all was you and the page you had stolen atop a pile of purple and golden leaves. You stood before it, eyes closed as you whispered some sort of incantation. Your powers spread above you in orange flickering flames as you outstretched your arms and summoned what looked like the beginnings of a portal, though it was hard to peer through like a bride covered in a veil of night black.
Peter shouted your name, screaming for you to stop, but you didnât so much as flinch as the portal grew. You couldnât hear him over the force of your will. He could start to feel what Wanda and Strange were trapped behind. There was some sort of invisible wall that threatened to push him back from you, but he couldnât be defeated. He had to stop you. Step by step, he got closer and closer to you, watching in horror as your body was lifted from the ground and floated in midair. A new energy started weeping through the fabric that covered your chest, soft and white like a sheer glittering fabric. It drifted towards the portal and as Peter neared you he could make out the outline of a face forming from it in the black center of it. It started to take shape, growing a neck and a body and becoming more concrete than a fragmented part of your energy. He became more unmistakable as the color grew back into his face. Tony Stark, in the flesh. Peter hurried towards the page.
You opened your eyes to gaze into the face of your father, tears flowing down your face partially from the exhaustion of bringing him back and from being able to see him again.
You tried to say something, tell him how much you had missed him, but you were left rendered without a voice. Your words came out as mouthed nonsense, though it seemed he had regained his voice.
âY/n,â he uttered, though it seemed more like a warning than a greeting after being torn from you for so long.
You mouthed something you knew heâd understand. I love you too, dad.
Some other force called your name, but you ignored it. You couldnât focus on anything else, but the father you had lost regaining life right in front of you. With every part that he gained, you felt a part of your fade. It wasnât painful, more numbing than anything like the final dose to end all your sadness. You couldnât help but relish in it. You were bringing back one of the greatest men to ever live.
You were so distracted, you missed the web that landed on the page below you and pulled it away.
âY/n,â your dad said again, nearly having enough of one of his legs to step out of the portal when suddenly, the inky blackness swallowed him whole again and dissolved in the forest light, taking back the only thing you ever wanted.
âNO!â you cried as your voice returned to you and you fell back down to the dry grass and dead leaves, crumpled on the forest floor as all of the magic you had summoned faded away save for the glittering cloud that returned to your chest with such force it made you cough. You had failed.
âY/n!â someone called and you shuddered away from their hand on your shoulder as loud sobs erupted from you.Â
âLeave me!â you begged. âJust leave!â Peter refused to leave your side, tossing behind him the page he had shredded into tiny scraps of paper as he knelt beside you, careful not to touch you again. âWhy did you have to do that? Why did you take him from me?â
âYou were going to die! I couldnât let you di-â
âI WANTED TO DIE!â
Peter froze as you whimpered, the truth spreading above the both of you in the cold air like storm clouds as you cried to him.
âI want him back. Everyone wants him back. No one cares about his depressed daughter and I donât want to hurt anymore, Peter.â you paused to take a deep breath. âIt- it hurts so much.â you could barely get the words out as you were choked by your sobs. âIt hurts knowing I couldâve saved him. It hurts knowing it shouldâve been me that snapped those stupid stones. And I donât want to live with that anymore. I had to try to bring him back for the world. It needs him more than it needs me.â
You brought a hand to your face, wiping away some of your tears, though it was no use as more came pouring out.
âI need you.â uttered Peter, looking into your glossy eyes. The sight of your tears and the echo of your screams couldnât deter him from you. You canât be repelled from the ones that you love.
âBut you miss him, donât you,â you argued as hot tears coated your face. âYou want him back too.â
Peter nodded in agreement.
âI think about him everyday. Our moments together. Like this one time he saved me from drowning in a lake. Or-â Peter grinned. â- remember when he caught us making out that one time before we told him we were together. He was so mad.â Peter smiled to himself, looking fondly on the memory until he began again.
âI miss him so much and it makes me so sad that I'll never see him again. But I wouldnât trade you for him. I wouldn't trade you for anyone. Youâre worth more to me than anyone else in the universe.â
Your sobs slowed yet the tears did not cease as they still cascaded down your face.
âIt hurts me so much.â you restated.
Peter opened his arms. âMay I?â he asked. You nodded and before you knew it, you were engulfed by a warmth unlike any other as Peter hugged you tight enough to make sure you wouldnât try to leave him again.
âI know you do,â he related. "And I wish I could take it away. I wish I could just bag all your pain and throw it all away. But it doesn't work like that. It's going to hurt. It's going to be painful, so much so that you won't move from bed for days and days. You haven't."Â
"But I feel like everyone else has already moved on. Why can't I?" you shivered.
"No one else was as close to him as you. Everyone else lost a friend. You lost a father. There's a big difference. You can't expect yourself to move on from it. That's not healthy. It's just like I said, I'm here for you no matter how long it takes. You have to take your time with it, donât rush the process." Peter pressed the lightest of kisses to one of your dampened cheeks.
"I just don't know what to do."
"Breathe."
As silly as it sounded in its simplicity you did as he instructed and inhaled deeply, allowing the air to coat your lungs that hadnât been exposed to so much fresh air in a week. As you exhaled, you let out another sob in his arms, but somehow it felt better than all the others. You were not rid of your pain by any means and sadness still corroded your core, but for the first time in so long, you didnât feel so hopeless. Peter placed another gentle kiss on your cheek, encouraging you as you took several more slow breaths and quiet cries until you found the strength to speak again.
âWas it like this for you when your parents died?â you wondered aloud as you pulled away from Peter to look into his chocolate brown eyes that you almost forgot you loved so much, yet not so far that he couldn't keep his arms around your frame that was still bearing his sweatshirt. You hadnât spoken much about them before and while you werenât sure where the question had arisen from, it felt like the right thing to ask.
âI was so young when they passed, sometimes I feel like they were never mine to begin with,â he admitted. âI took a couple days off school when it happened, but I donât remember crying all that much. Itâs tragic and sometimes it makes me sad that theyâre gone, but Iâm glad that it does. Itâs a reminder that they were there for me in the first place, that I knew them enough to miss them. The grief is proof that I loved them while they were here.â
You were both silent for a moment as you thought about his words in relation to your situation. All your pain was put into perspective. Everything you had been through since he died, all the days you wasted away in bed, it was all the proof that you had loved him so much when he was alive and that you were still carrying the love you had left for him. You missed your father so much you were willing to die to get him back and for a moment, you almost did.
You parted from Peterâs arms to stand though you still grasped onto his hands as you werenât strong enough to be upright on your own. You closed your eyes again and listened to the sound of the forest, the swaying of the leaves that still clung to their branches, the faint twittering of birds, and the calm of the sky that was oddly cloudless for autumn. The sound of your name falling from your fatherâs reformed lips was still faint in the air and for a moment you felt as though you were with him again.
You remembered when he taught you how to ride a bike one evening when you were only four. You remembered the day he pulled you from public school and started teaching you at home. You remembered the look of shock on his face when you showed him your powers for the first time and even more, you remember his pride when you completed your first mission with the Avengers (that he'd approved ahead of time to avoid any more Germany -like surprises). He wasnât there, but at the same time he was everywhere. And you missed him, but at the same time the absence he left in your life felt less empty.
The tears came out in slow smooth streams, flowing down in slow trickles as you finally sat back down. You didnât say anything and neither did Peter, but you knew he could feel what you felt. He could feel your father too and minutes slipped by as you sat and cried together.
There was a sudden rustling in the distance and soon enough, Doctor Strange and Wanda had arrived at the scene, no longer held back by invisible barriers. They rushed to you bringing flooding guilt through your system as you began to apologize.
âIâm sorry,â you cried. âIâm so sorry.â
Strange opened his mouth to speak, but he had nothing to say. You could tell by his expression that he was disappointed, but there was more to it. He had empathy.
It was Wanda that leaned down to place a friendly hand on your shoulder.
âLetâs get you home.â
The months following were some of the hardest of your life. Every battle you faced was uphill, but you no longer felt like you were fighting alone. You started going out again, first to visit Pepper and your half sister Morgan who lived in their cabin home. Peter joined you of course, but he played with Morgan for the most part while you and Pepper talked. You cried with her, but you laughed a lot too. She shared with you so many of her own memories, times when your father didn't know what to get you for your birthday, when he had managed to mess up cooking dinner in the strangest of ways, and when heâd accidentally burned your favorite stuffed animal in the drying machine all of which Pepper had to remedy. Though she hadnât raised you, she was the mother you never had and through her stories you learned that your father had been just as good raising Morgan with her as he had been with you.
You hung out with Ned and MJ again shortly after that. While Peter had suggested a brief check-in at a cafe so you could go home quickly to rest, you surprised him with a much more time consuming idea: laser tag. The four of you had the best time targeting each other, you winning more rounds than any of the others. You ended the day with smoothies, talking as you drank and making plans for the next time you would all see each other. MJ made you promise you would text her if you ever needed anything and Ned gave you a whole plate of his Lolaâs ensaymadas, your favorite dish of hers.
Finally, though he was locked up in his house and avoiding humanity, you visited Happy. Peter offered to join you like all the other times, but you assured him it would be best if he stayed home, promising you would return later. Happy was in a similar state of dismay to you when you saw him and while he was able to care for himself and continue with his personal routine, you could tell he was hurting.
You didn't say much when you first entered his apartment, but there was comfort within the silence. You sat with him on his sofa and watched whatever mind numbing program he had turned on to distract his thoughts until you had both worked up an appetite for lunch. It was there, in the middle of a random Burger King in Queens over a plate of cheeseburgers that you both broke down. You told him what you had nearly done, trusting him with the sensitive information as he was almost a second father to you. You took your time telling him the story of how you had nearly died to bring back your father.
Happy cried as you did and when you were finished, he told you how much you meant to him. He traded your story for one from your father after he returned from Afghanistan where he had famously been kidnapped.
"You could tell he was shaken," Happy began. "He told me he wasn't scared to die, but he was scared of losing time with you and leaving you alone. Pepper and I had been so busy trying to get him back, he was worried you had been neglected while he was gone. But when he came home and he saw your room clean, your toys put away, and a fridge full of leftovers from meals you prepared yourself, he was so proud. You inspired him to turn his life around. It was after that he told me that he knew you'd be okay if he was taken from us one day."
You both cried after that.
Long after you had finished your food, Happy drove you to the Parker's new apartment with the promise that he would be okay too, eventually. He also admitted that he was starting to develop quite the liking for your faithful boyfriend after hearing all that he had done for you, though heâd skin you alive if you ever told Peter.
It was that night in Peter's new bedroom that you knew youâd be okay. It still hurt to think of your father and you knew youâd never entirely recover and that the pain would never fully leave you, but there was a certain comfort in it now. You knew Peter felt it too as he snuggled half asleep into your side, his arm slung around your body in a protective manner, but also to keep from falling of the twin bed you shared as he let you sleep on the side with the wall. There were still days when you didnât want to leave your bed, but there were also days when you felt more elated than ever. You could feel your father in those moments the most, like the shine of his smile took form in the light from the sun. You couldnât see him nor could you speak with him, but you knew he wasnât really gone. It was love that kept him around. And it was the love you carried for him that would suspend you for lifetimes, through light and dark until the end of time.
âI hope this grief stays with me because its all the unexpressed loveâ - Andrew Garfield đ

Go, Ted! Handpicked to help defend the multiverse. Also chosen to represent the Earth 4 heroes in this crossover event
Again, Ted is strong as hell. Holding up a whole grown man's full weight with one arm
Isn't that the fucker that was fighting dr fate in the Rebirth Blue Beetle run? also 45,000 years b4 the present⌠a bit overestimating how long humans have been around
superhero mentality I swear. Just cause you got attacked after being invited/forced to go somewhere doesn't mean it was a trap/set up on the part of the inviter
also, the only things that actually hurt the shadow demons have been shown to be the Scarab, the Green Lantern's light, and the lights in the Monitor's ship turned up to full brightness
ok yeah, that Atlantean is the same character but⌠he's an antagonist in the rebirth Blue Beetle story for⌠reasons. And looking at his wiki he was not a fucking villain until post-crisis stuff
also fucking superheroes assuming the Monitor lied to them b/c things are going to shit and not dude had a plan but it isn't working like he thought it would
mfers really be jumping to conclusions and wanting to fight someone about it
local asshole villain Dr Polaris really said 'fuck yeah! let's kill some Nazis!'
while Ted would also like to kill some Nazis, he's focused on the mission they got sent there for. Also, the Ted being a mama's boy thing has come up twice this far in this crossover. That is entirely fucking new, Ted never mentioned his mom in his og comics
so man got brought over to the DC universe and they made him more flirty and a momma's boy
of course, I do have to question why in this fight the shadow demons get zapped from just touching Beetle while in the first encounter that didn't happen
of course, it hurts like hell just to get touched by the shadow demons
the Monitor is disappointed that the Beetle doesn't work as effectively against the demons as he thought the Scarab would so he sends the fucker home, really?
Also, I guess Jaime would be plowing through these demons like tissue paper then if he were in this
also, Ted having the Scarab in the first place is another retcon but it's a very minor change, he's still a tech hero since it doesn't actively give him powers
but the passive protection from demons is fascinating
cause like from Khaji Da's narration at the end of the Reach arc it did bond to Ted too, it was just too damaged to do shit for him
of course, we need superheroes to fight so now Ted thinks that he'd been kidnapped and fed lies
hey someone aware that this fighting and these thoughts feel forced
the Anti-Monitor boosted Psycho Pirate's powers and is making him influence people on the 3 remaining Earths to fling themselves into the antimatter waves and fight the heroes that try to stop them
heheh Ted really the cosmic representative of Earth 4. He's literally just... a guy but apparently he was that popular
Khaji Da listening to this in Ted's pocket: The Oans have no equals⌠what are we chopped liver?
I'm just picturing the Reach and their kin on the other side of the known universe seeing shit go down and just going 'ugh, we're gonna loose so many days of productivity over this' and just phase shifting into the Bleed and watching the Oans and lanterns get their shit rocked
again I'm just imagining the Reach watching all this fuck shit going on and going, that is not my problem
will finish reading the issues with Ted in them remaining for this crossover later. It's given me a bunch of thoughts
also, just the Spectre is fucking useless, yer telling me it goes after fuckers who've escaped the vengeance of man and there's a whole league of supervillains just sitting there unsmote
Superheroes said you are not allowed to retire from being a superhero even if we know that you are actively dying every time you use yer powers
the cosmic treadmill can do shit but none of the magic users that's wild. Fucking run fast enough and you can travel across dimensions
Wild that we can time travel to save the universe when the plot calls for it. That we can create a massive time paradox to save the universe when the plot calls for it. But Booster Gold can't be allowed to use time travel to save his best friend Ted Kord from getting shot.
combining the forces of many heroes and villains fuckers are going back in time and across the universe to 'defeat' (read kill, everyone is ok with killing this time) the ANtiMonitor.
Also, imagine DC Comics buying you out so they can have yer characters and then kill off all but one of yer characters in a crossover event.
Also, why did observing the Big Bang lead to the creation of the antimatter universe in the first place or open a second antimatter gate when someone did it again?
The superheroes without powers applicable to fighting cosmic beings really just here for moral support, huh?

self rambles
Headache. Again
Life's ok for now. Relaxing. At least i'm not constantly under pressure or at risk of punching some guy's teeth off. But i'm constantly aware that i'm stretching my savings thin (i have two loans. Courtesy of my degree.)
I'm still glad i quit though. There's no way i'd be this fine had i not. I worked so hard for that too. Endured 5 years in medical school for it. And several more years of school and pre univ program before.
Sometimes it felt like a waste. Could've saved a lot if i didn't get into med school.
I have no use for regret. We'll never know what could happen. I have decided to take what comes a long time ago.
I need to find a job. I want to work. But i am extremely picky now because i don't want to put up with the same thing i did last time anymore. I want something that would allow me to still build a life outside of it.
My parents are old and my oldest brother is physically unfit. I don't want to depend on my older sisters for anything. They have their own life to look after. I need to be able to maintain myself and my brother in the long run.
I couldn't afford to work far from home, or work odd hours, or even anything that as much as requires me to travel for extended period of time. I honestly don't have any other skills/knowledge/certificates than my medical degree. Tried applying for a job (research assistant) at a local uni, still nothing. Still holding out for that, but i really don't want to keep my hopes up too high. I'm tired of feeling disappointed.
I feel useless. I don't want to but i still do. My parents would insist otherwise but i still do. I can't even provide for myself. I want to work but i'm really unwilling to put myself through shit again. I can't trust people. I technically cut contacts (softly) with my friends. I don't know what to say to them. I'm scared. I don't know what to do. I don't know what i can do. And i'm scared of trying anything. I don't have the space to mess up. Already did with the first one. Might not have another if i did again.

i'm so mean to bucky but i honestly just need something with shrunkyclunks and bucky being mugged and then getting protective care later from steve, i'm evil i know sorry haha
You want angst? Okay! >:D
https://archiveofourown.org/works/18376730
Being Captain Americaâs boyfriend was never guaranteed to be easy. Despite the fact that both the Avengersâ public relations team, Tony Starkâs personal team, and all of Buckyâs friends had all told him not to google himself after their relationship became public, Bucky hadnât been able to resist the temptation. It was everything that he could have predicted and more.
There were strong supporters and vocal detractors. Some people thirst tweeted him, others thirst tweeted Steve (which wasnât new), and some thirst tweeted both of them. That part was fine, if a little⌠invasive. Other people claimed that Steve could do better. Bucky ignored those, because honestly, who cared? Steve thought he was sexy (a fact that still made Bucky feel a little giddy) and that was all that mattered.
The main issue was the religious nuts who had a collective aneurysm, as though the fact that Captain America was fucking a guy was a personal attack. Steve ignored them, but he was a little more experienced ignoring such people. Bucky was honestly a bit worried. There had been more than one conservative speaker who claimed that Bucky was an agent of the Devil who had corrupted the moral symbol of America, and by extension, the entire country as a whole.
If it had been something normal and simple such as, âThe gays cause floods, wildfires, and tornados,â that wouldâve been fine. Those made Bucky chuckle. Claiming that he personally was a danger and threat and seeing people agree with it so easily was a little more disturbing.
After about a month of that, Bucky started a total social media blackout. They were right, it wasnât worth the worry. Steve started training him in combat skills, too. âYou never know when youâll need to defend yourself,â he said. Bucky laughed it off more to deflect from the fact that he was actually kinda worried.
About a month into his social media blackout, Bucky was minding his own business while walking towards his apartment. The Tower was nice, but it wasnât Brooklyn and Bucky really did like having his own space. It wasnât anything fancy, but for a guy who was working on a cupcake shop, it was everything he needed it to be: comfortable, warm, and within his ability to pay.
Brooklyn was beautiful. The fact that Bucky had grown up there made him biased, but also right. He loved how it seemed both old and new. Steve sometimes talked about how it used to look like, what people used to do there. Heâd drawn pictures of tall buildings that were piles of shacks more than anything connected by rows of laundry hung out over the streets to dry.
It was amazing, both from an artistic sense and from a historical one. Now, Brooklyn was a place full of youth and vigor. It seemed full of art and possibilities and sometimes Bucky caught Steveâs eyes glaze over, as if he was imagining what life mightâve been like in this Brooklyn instead of the one he grew up in. Maybe he wouldâve had a future instead of bleak prospects and a weak body.
Bucky turned the corner and continued walking towards his apartment like he always did. As he passed by the alley between a bar and a pizza joint, he was grabbed from behind. His yell was muffled as he was slammed against the brick wall behind him. The back of his head throbbed in pain.
âWhat the? Who the hell are you?!â he demanded. It came out more as a groan than a yell like heâd hoped for.
âAre you Bucky Barnes?â one of them asked. There were three of them. They each wore black ski masks like some cheesy movie trope, but at the moment, Bucky was actually legitimately terrified.
âWho wants to know?â Bucky replied. They looked at each other before one of them checked his back pockets until they found his wallet.
âItâs him,â they reported.
âWell then, Bucky,â the first mugger said. âWeâre here to save the soul of Captain America.â
An icy sliver of dread passed through Buckyâs stomach as he caught the sliver of a knife while someone else produced a gun. His brief amount of combat training with Steve kicked in and he bashed his head against the nose of the mugger who held him against the wall. Bucky grabbed the blade that the mugger dropped and dropped into a defensive posture.
They couldnât have all brought knives like normal psychopaths, could they? Bucky thought.
He attacked and managed to disarm the second one before he decided to make a run for it rather than try to fight his way out. As he was making his getaway, though, he heard a shot followed by the sudden stabbing of a gunshot strike like lightning in his leg. He didnât have time. He dashed into the bar. He went straight into the bar, his leg throbbing in protest with every step.
âCall an ambulance,â Bucky said through clenched teeth. The bartender nodded and picked up the phone. Bucky barely registered what he said as he tried desperately to keep pressure on a wound he couldnât see. When the bartender was done, he came around the bar with a rag and a length of twine.
âTheyâre on their way,â he said. âWhere is it?â
âThigh,â Bucky breathed. âBack. Canât see.â
The bartender rolled him over on his side and pressed the rag to the wound. Bucky cried out in pain as the bartender secured the cloth to his leg with quick and brutal precision.
âWhatâs your name, son?â the bartender asked. âIâm Steven Goldberg.â
âBu-Bucky Barnes,â he said. âThank you.â
âDonât thank me yet,â the bartender said. âThe ambulance will be here soon. Tell me about yourself.â
âIâI make cupcakes,â he said. âBarnesâ Artisanal Bakery.â
âYou just make cupcakes at your bakery?â Steven asked. Bucky chuckled and shook his head.
âNo, theyâre just⌠my specialty,â he said. âMake bread, too. Lots of challah. Grandmaâs recipe.â
âYou Jewish?â Steven asked. Bucky nodded. âMe, too. Great-grandma was saved by Captain America during the Holocaust. Named my granddad Steve after him. My ma named me after him.â
Bucky smiled. âHeâs my⌠boyfriend,â Bucky said. âMa was so proud⌠when she heard. Said it made up for⌠me eating bacon.â
Steven laughed at that. Bucky chuckled a bit at that, too. Then he closed his eyes. Steven shook him lightly.
âStay with me, Bucky!â he said sternly. âCome on, tell me about your favorite cupcake recipe. How did you meet Steve Rogers?â
âCatered a⌠party⌠at the tower,â Bucky said. âJust tiredâŚâ
âHey, hey, stay awake!â Steven said. He slapped Buckyâs face lightly. âThe ambulance is almost here, gotta stay awake.â
Everything went dark.
Bucky heard people. He heard voices, but they were speaking like he was underwater or something. He couldnât make anything out. Someone sounded stressed. It mightâve been Steve. He couldnât tell. He wished they would be quiet. He was still so tired.
He became aware of some terrible, searing pain. It didnât feel anything like the bullet. The bullet felt just fine in comparison to this, like heâd been hit with a stick. He felt like he was burning from the inside out. He might have screamed, maybe it was someone else. After a while, he passed out again.
When he next came to, he heard beeping by his bedside. He groaned softly and the next thing he knew, someone was holding his hand tightly.
âBuck?â someone said. It was Steve. Bucky grinned knowing that Steve was with him. âCome on, Bucky wake up for me, please.â
âStevie,â Bucky replied. It was little more than a murmur. His voice was hoarse and his throat hurt like hell. It wasnât a dream, then. He had screamed, but he didnât know why.
âOh, thank God,â Steve sighed with relief. âCan you open your eyes?â
Bucky slowly opened them. He looked up into a face that was both strange and familiar. It was Steve, his Steve, but heâd grown a beard at some point. That was weird. Steve never had facial hair. He definitely hadnât had one the last time Bucky saw him. He looked amazing, though.
âNice beard,â Bucky said. Steve grinned and laughed with relief. âAm I in a hospital?â
âYeah, yeah you are,â Steve replied. He looked down with concern at Buckyâs face. âHow⌠do you feel?â
Bucky thought for a moment. He felt⌠fine. Better than fine, actually. He wasnât in any pain at all. After a gunshot wound, he figured heâd at least be a bit tender afterwards or have a lot of pain. Even his head felt clear, rather having than the dull throb and foggy senses that might have accompanied a concussion.
âWhat happened?â Bucky asked.
âYou were attacked,â Steve said. His face was resolute, but Bucky could see the guilt and sadness underneath. The guy who called the ambulance said that he didnât know who did it.
âI donât, either,â Bucky said. âThey just said they were trying to save your soul.â
Steve grimaced. âAnyway, after you were out of danger, you went into shock,â he said. âThe doctors said that you had a mild concussion and youâd lost a lot of blood despite what Mr. Goldberg did.â
âHe was named after ya, ya know,â Bucky said. âSaid his great-grandma was saved by you during the Holocaust.â
âReally?â Steve said. âHe didnât say anything like that to me. I saved a lot of people from the camps whenever I found them.â
âHere I thought my folks were the only Jews who were crazy for ya,â Bucky said. âClearly all of us love you. You should convert.â
Steve laughed at that. âSure, Buck. Iâll get right on it,â he said. âDo you feel⌠strange, at all?â
Bucky frowned at him. âWhat do you mean, âstrangeâ?â he asked.
Steve shrugged and Bucky could see his face blush a bit. âI donât know⌠different,â he replied.
Bucky stared at him. âI have an inexplicable urge to run a marathon,â he said. âDoes that count as strange?â
âUh, it might.â
âSteve,â Bucky said sternly. âWhat did you do?â
Steve looked down sheepishly. âYou lost a lot of blood,â Steve replied. âThe paramedics didnât have enough of your blood type, AB negative. Said it was pretty rare. I⌠offered mine. I apparently have the universal donor or something.â
Bucky blinked. âOkay,â he said. âWhat does that have to do with me feeling weirdly energetic?â
Steve ducked his head. âThe⌠docs think that I mightâve passed on the serum to you.â
It took a minute for that little tidbit to seep in. Bucky smiled slowly, then all at once.
âThey do?â he asked.
âYeah,â Steve said. âThe surgery to get the bullet out was just a few hours ago. They had difficulty keeping you sedated because of the change, actually.â
âHow much blood did you give me?â Bucky asked.
âEnough, apparently,â Steve said sheepishly. âThey want to monitor you, see if I really did pass everything on.â
âFuck that!â Bucky cried. He took out the IV and jumped to his feet. He looked down at his body. What had once been skinny arms on a broad frame was now lined with thick muscle. The next thing he did was lift up his hospital gown and check his dick. He barely recognized it. His flaccid length was about as long as heâd used to be while hard. âDamn, look at that! Holy shit!â
âBuck, please, weâre in public,â Steve said with a blush.
âWeâre alone in here,â Bucky said with a mischievous grin. âPull the blinds, maybe we can get a quickie in before the doctor gets here.â
âBuck, Iâm serious,â Steve said sternly.
âSo am I!â Bucky replied. âItâs not every day you wake up in a brand new body. Come on, help me break this baby in.â
Steveâs blush grew. âLater, I promise,â he said.
Bucky stared at him before he dropped his gown. His dick, which had been working its way to hardness softened.
âOkay,â he said. âLater.â
The doctors cleared Bucky to leave as soon as they saw he was up and about. His ma cried from relief when she arrived and found him. Bucky hugged her tightly and realized that he probably had to be gentle when she groaned a bit more easily than he remembered. His very next thought was that he was gonna get her back for all the years of oppressively bone-crushing hugs she always gave him.
He went back with Steve to the tower where they proceeded to⌠do absolutely nothing. They didnât go down to the gym or fuck or even watch tv. Steve just had Bucky sit down on the couch while he did everything. He brought Bucky the biggest sandwiches Bucky had ever seen, he put Buckyâs shoes away for him, he cleaned every visible surface of his apartment twice, he got Bucky everything he wanted, and was even waiting outside when Bucky emerged from the bathroom.
âSteve, come on, Iâm fine,â Bucky said. He took Steveâs hand. âCome on, letâs do something fun if we have to stay here.â
âNo, Bucky,â Steve said. He jerked his hand out of Buckyâs like it was burned and⌠Bucky definitely felt that. He scowled at Steve.
âFine,â he growled. He walked around Steve towards the front door.
âWhere are you going?â Steve demanded.
âHome,â Bucky said as he shoved his feet into his shoes. âIâve got things to do.â
The sound the door made when he slammed it made him feel a little bit satisfied.
It wasnât until late that evening when Buckyâs phone rang. He looked down at Steveâs number. He was still mad, though, so he let it go to voicemail.
In the hours that heâd been home, heâd cleaned up everything. There was a lot, considering that Bucky tended to not have time to clean things between running a bakery and dating a superhero. His newfound strength and energy, though, proved convenient. He picked up the couch with ease to clean under it and even the bed seemed light to him.
It didnât seem to matter, though. Steve, for whatever reason, didnât seem to think that Buckyâs new abilities were all that interesting. Heâd backed away from his touch and even turned away when Bucky had tried to kiss him earlier.
What if he doesnât like the way I look, now? Bucky thought. It made the icy feeling in his gut grow. He curled in on himself, picking his feet up and wrapping his arms around his ankles. It was true, he had been shorter and skinnier than Steve when they met, but surely Steve hadnât just liked him for his body⌠right?
The thought wouldnât leave, though. Bucky eventually ended up falling asleep on the couch with nothing but an old afghan.
His alarm went off the same time it did every morning. Bucky groaned as he pressed snooze. He was gonna take the day off. Heâd use the excuse that heâd been shot to defend it if anyone asked. Yesterday had been stressful, after all, in more ways than one.
He did, however, look at Steveâs contact on his phone. His phone said that he had a message from him. There wasnât anything else, though. It wasnât like him to ignore Bucky like this, though. Finally, Bucky decided to press the voicemail notification.
Hey, Buck, the message began. Iâm sorry for what happened to ya today. Sorry that⌠you got hurt because of me. If we werenât together, this wouldnât ever have happened.
There was a pause in the message and Buckyâs heart stopped. âSteve, donât you fucking dare,â he grumbled.
I hate that you got hurt because of me, Buck. I couldnât live with myself if it happened again. I⌠I think itâs best that we go our separate ways, now.
Bucky couldnât breathe. His eyes filled with tears and he clutched his shirt over his heart. âNo, Steve, stop!â
So⌠I guess this is goodbye, Buck. I hope you live a good life⌠End of message. To delete this messageâ
Bucky hung up. His mind swirled with a tempest of emotions. Grief, shock, denial, rage, hate, and the sharp, bitter sting of rejection all fought for dominance. Bucky fell to his knees on the floor. He looked back down at his phone only to see that heâd crushed it in his hand. He banged his other hand on the coffee table and it cracked.
âDammit!â he shouted. He got up, still seething with anger as he washed his hand under the sink. Thankfully, no glass had gotten in the cut across his palm, but he still bandaged it up. He would probably be completely fine after a few hours.
The thought of that made him think of Steve, though. Steve did this, made him this way. His body was new and different and strange. Heâd broken his phone and his coffee table already. He couldnât afford to replace them either! And now⌠now there was no one around to teach him how to adjust.
His legs buckled and he fell to his knees in a corner of the kitchen. He sobbed. Yesterday heâd been mugged, shot, and woken up a different person. Today, he was more alone than heâd ever felt at any other time in his life.
He didnât know how long he stayed like that. He cried until he couldnât breathe and kept crying. It was the stupidest, dumbest, most Steve-like reason to break up. Protecting him⌠asshole.
When he looked up and cleaned himself off, he could hear a din of voices at his door. He walked over as quietly as he could and looked through the hole on his door. They had cameras and mics and Bucky groaned softly. This was the last thing he needed.
He turned around and started packing a bag. The first thing heâd need was to get to the tower. There was no fucking way he was letting Steve just break up with him over this. He took everything he was likely to need and packed it into a backpack before he snuck out the fire escape.
For some reason, there were no paparazzi at the bottom of the fire escape. Whether that was because they were leery about going into a strange alley or because they didnât know about it, Bucky didnât care. He jumped down from the bottom level and grinned triumphantly when his body only felt slightly uncomfortable at the landing. Heâd need to work on that.
He marched towards the street and hailed a cab, which admittedly took him a few minutes, but it arrived before the press realized that heâd duped them.
âAvengers Tower,â he said as he climbed into the back seat.
The drive was as slow as he expected, honestly. Traffic was always bad in New York, but what mattered was that he wasnât around a bunch of people that he could bump into and inadvertently send hurtling into oncoming traffic or onto the third rail at the subway or something.
Nearly an hour and a half later, Bucky arrived and paid the driver. He tried not to wince at how much it cost to get him there, but he didnât care at the moment. He was totally getting Steve to pay for this shit.
Unfortunately, the press were here, too. As soon as he got out of the cab, they swarmed him like a school of piranha.
âBucky Barnes, is it true that Captain America broke up with you?!â
âMr. Barnes, can you confirm that you were kidnapped yesterday?!â
âDo the events that happened yesterday have anything to do with your new appearance?!â
âWas your whole relationship with Captain America a plot to steal the serum?!â
Bucky growled, but otherwise ignored them as he marched inside. Security guards let him through and held the reporters back. He sighed as he stepped inside.
âI guess youâre here to see Steve?â came a voice. Bucky turned to see Tony leaning on the front counter.
âWhat happened?â Bucky asked.
âYou donât know? Youâre the one who became the worldâs second super soldier,â Tony said. âHonestly, Iâm surprised it took this long for people to try this. Steve having O negative blood and the serum being in it, it doesnât exactly shock me that giving someone else his blood would pass the serum along.â
âI know about that,â Bucky said. âBut everything else, no. I, uh, broke my phone.â
Tony glanced down at his hands and nodded knowingly. âIâll hook you up with a Stark phone,â he said. âHad to make some that Steve could use after he kept breaking normal ones.â
âThanks,â Bucky said. âSo whatâs happened?â
âIt was about as dramatic an announcement as Iâve ever seen,â Tony said. âSteve told some press yesterday when they came here asking what happened and told them the two of you were no longer a thing. Next thing anyone knew, the Internet exploded. Youâve got fangirls crying about their OTP breaking up and everything.â
âGreat,â Bucky said.
âSo did you?â Tony asked.
âHe left a message on my phone,â Bucky growled.
âWait⌠he did?â Tony demanded, his eyes going wide. âThatâs a dick move.â
âYeah, so let me know where he is because he and I are gonna have words,â Bucky growled.
âHeâs in the gym,â Tony said as Bucky got into the elevator. âGoing to town on some punching bags, Iâll bet. Iâll take care of the press. Give him a good oleâ one two for me, all right?â
Bucky grinned savagely. âSure thing.â
His heart was hammering in his chest and his body thrummed with nervous energy as the elevator moved. When it dinged and the doors opened, the only thing Bucky could hear was the sound of punching echoing through the room. He followed it until he saw Steve. In spite of the anger and sadness and hurt he felt, he took a moment to admire Steveâs form. Only a moment, though. He walked up until he was behind Steve.
âHey, punk,â he said. Steve whipped around and before he could say anything, Bucky gave him a right hook, which nailed him square in the jaw. Steve stumbled back and Bucky grinned with satisfaction, knowing that heâd caught Steve off-guard.
âBucky?! Whatââ Bucky interrupted him with a left punch, which Steve blocked easily. âStop!â
âStop?!â Bucky demanded. âWhere do you get off telling me to stop?!â
He lunged at Steve and they tumbled to the floor. Bucky might not have any knowledge of fighting, but he was strong, strong enough that he was able to make Steve fight for his victory. He punched and kicked and shoved and even bit Steve before he ended up on the floor of the gym with his arms pinned above his head and Steve kneeling over him.
âFuck you,â Bucky growled. âYouâre a damn asshole, punk.â
Steveâs gaze softened. âIâm sorry.â
âI donât want your damned apology!â Bucky yelled. âI want an explanation! I feel like I deserve that much!â
Steve sighed. âI know youâre angryââ
âNo shit.â
âI just couldnât stand to see you get hurt again!â Steve shouted. âYou got hurt because of me! I did the only thing I could think of that could protect you!â
âYouâre not protecting me,â Bucky said. Steve blinked above him. Bucky closed his eyes and willed himself not to cry. âYouâre not protecting me.â
âBuck, whatâs going on?â Steve asked.
âEverything, you fucking moron!â Bucky cried. âI broke my fucking phone, I broke my table, I twisted some ladder rails on my way out the door trying to avoid the paparazzi, I had to stop myself from slamming a cab door closed cause I canât afford to break more shit. I canât clock people for getting in my face cause I donât wanna hurt anyone.
âYou did this to me, you asshole. You saved my life and made me a super soldier and youâre the only one who knows what this shit is like and now youâre calling it quits? Youâre abandoning me!â
Bucky realized that he had tears streaming down his face and sucked in a breath. âShit,â he hissed.
âBucky⌠Iâm so sorry,â Steve said. He leaned down and wrapped his arms around Buckyâs body. Bucky burrowed his face in Steveâs chest and sobbed.
âIâm still mad at you,â Bucky said between sobs.
âI know,â Steve said. âYou have every right to be. I regretted it the moment I hung up, but when I woke up, I couldnât get ahold of you.â
âWhy? Why did you do it?â Bucky asked.
âI was scared, baby,â Steve murmured. âI thought that the only thing I could do to keep you safe was break up because I couldnât think of the fact that you couldâve died because I love you.â
Bucky closed his eyes and fisted a hand in Steveâs sweaty shirt. He sniffed and breathed in the scent of Steveâs musk. Even now, he found that he loved the smell and sight of Steve all sweaty.
âDamn fine way of showing it,â Bucky muttered. Steve shifted down until his face was hovering over Buckyâs. He kissed him tenderly. Bucky growled, though, and kissed him back with more fire and force. He flipped them over and Steve gasped as Bucky stared down at him. Bucky smirked triumphantly. âHuh, so thatâs what it feels like.â
âYou like the view?â Steve asked. Bucky chuckled and placed his hands on Steveâs shirt.
âIt could be improved,â he said. He pulled and the shirt ripped to shreds with no more effort than if it were paper. Bucky looked down at Steveâs chest in satisfaction and not a small amount of pride. He kissed Steve hard, thrusting his tongue into Steveâs mouth and biting his lower lip hard enough to make it bleed. Steve groaned beneath him but Bucky kept him pinned to the floor.
âYouâre mine,â Bucky growled. âAnd Iâm yours. âTil the end of the line, ya fucking punk.â
Steve nodded. ââTil the end of the line,â he agreed.
Bucky kissed him again before he rolled Steve onto his stomach. He rubbed his aching cock over the cleft of Steveâs ass. He was fucking huge, now. It was like one of those online fake porn ads that promised miracle pills to make your dick get bigger, except it was Steveâs blood that did it. His jeans were uncomfortably tight around his member and Bucky quickly shucked them to the floor and tossed them aside. As soon as they were off, he reached down and ripped Steveâs khakis off along the seam.
âJesus, Buck, I gotta walk around when this is over,â Steve groaned.
âShut up,â Bucky said. âYou broke up with me. A few ripped clothes is the least you deserve.â
He grabbed a packet of lube from Steveâs inside pocket (because the man always had a plan, even after he dumped his boyfriend, apparently) and slicked up two of his fingers. He pressed one to Steveâs hole and pushed in. Steve hissed at the intrusion, but didnât say anything. Bucky kept pressing in until the digit was fully seated inside him.
Bucky fucked him with that finger until Steve felt loose enough for another and pushed it in alongside the first. Steve moaned and pressed his face into the floor beneath him as he pushed back on Buckyâs hand.
âBuck,â Steve said.
âYeah?â
âA little down and to the left,â Steve said. Bucky bent his fingers as requested and Steve moaned loudly as he rubbed over Steveâs prostate. Bucky added a third finger and stretched him with impatience. He wanted to fuck Steve and this was honestly taking a while.
âBuck, Iâm ready, fuck me,â Steve moaned. Bucky didnât argue. He tore open another lube packet and coated his now considerably large cock with lube. He had been somewhat surprised to find that in addition to becoming stronger, his foreskin had grown back. And it felt. AMAZING. The head of his dick was so much more sensitive. He pressed the head to Steveâs hole and moaned just at the feeling. He pushed in.
âOh God, oh fuck,â Bucky groaned. âFuck, this is amazing.â
Steve chuckled beneath him. âGo slow,â he moaned. âGotta give me time to adjust, baby.â
âShut up, Iâm trying to enjoy this,â Bucky replied.
âEnjoying your first time topping, baby?â Steve asked.
âThe foreskin helps,â Bucky said. He inched further inside Steve and groaned as Steveâs hot, tight hole squeezed around him. âSeriously, first I eat bacon, now I have a foreskin. I might as well be a Gentile now.â
Steve laughed at that. âIâm a corrupting influence, it seems,â he said.
âYou have to convert, now,â Bucky said. âGotta make up for leading me astray.â
âOkay, Buck,â Steve chuckled.
When Bucky finally bottomed out, it felt amazing. Steveâs ass clenched around his whole length. It was the second most amazing thing Bucky had ever felt, the first being Steveâs cock in him. Heâd always be a slut for Steveâs cock. This was a very, very close second, though.
He began to roll his hips against Steveâs slowly. He moaned at the feeling, at Steveâs walls wrapped tight around him. Steve groaned and pushed back against Bucky, matching his shallow thrusts. Bucky reached down and gripped Steveâs hips as he began to pull out more. He thrust hard into Steveâs heat and Steve whined.
âGod, you feel so fuckinâ good,â Bucky growled. He pushed Steveâs chest down and started fucking him into the floor. Steve moaned and writhed beneath him. âYou like that? You like havinâ a man who can keep up with ya? Who can go all day with you and not feel tired?â
Steve moaned and nodded beneath him. Bucky quickened his pace. There was no finesse or grace in it. He was angry and hurt and Steve was the one who did it. He threw his head back and groaned as he began to slam into Steveâs ass. Steve whimpered and moaned beneath him and Bucky grinned with savage satisfaction.
âYou shouldâve known better,â Bucky growled. âShouldâve warned me. Shouldâve helped me, ya punk.â
Steve groaned and nodded. âHarder, harder, Buck,â he moaned. âGive me all you got.â
Bucky groaned and fucked faster. His body moved like lightning streaking across the sky, faster and more powerful than it had ever been in his life. His hands were like iron around Steveâs hips, nails digging into his skin and drawing bits of blood. Still, Bucky went faster, harder. He wanted Steve to hurt, to feel everything heâd done to Bucky. Steve just groaned beneath him and took everything Bucky gave him.
âFuck, Bucky, Iâm gonna come,â Steve moaned. âGonna come, keep going!â
Bucky did. He slammed into Steveâs prostate with every thrust and without mercy. A moment later, Steveâs ass was squeezing around him like a vice and Steve shouted as he came. Bucky felt his body writhe beneath him, shaking as he came onto the floor beneath them. A second later, he slammed his cock into Steveâs ass as deep as it would go and he came too, his come bursting from him. He came more than he ever had in his life. Every drop of it shot into Steveâs waiting ass.
When he was spent, he slumped with exhaustion. His cock slipped from Steveâs ass and he collapsed on the floor breathing like heâd just run 20 miles. He breathed deep, the sweetness of the air filling his burning lungs. Steve got up and laid down next to him.
âIâm sorry,â he said. âYou were right, I abandoned you. Iâm sorry for being afraid.â
Bucky nodded and held back more tears. âJust⌠promise me that if you ever want to break up with me in the future, youâll do it person.â
âI didnât want to break up with you,â Steve murmured. âBefore yesterday, IâŚI thought that we would be together forever, actually. I never want anybody else, baby.â
âIf you ask me to marry you naked on a gym floor, I swear to God I will walk the fuck out of here,â Bucky said. Steve laughed softly.
âDonât worry,â he said.
âGood, cause I got standards. I want a real nice proposal, all romantic and shit,â Bucky said.
âJust so weâre clear,â Steve said. âYouâre okay with me proposing at some later, undisclosed date.â
Bucky smiled against Steveâs chest. âYeah, Iâm really okay with that,â he said. âI love you.â
âI love you, too, baby,â Steve murmured. âYou mind if we get up and put some clothes on?â
Bucky smiled mischievously. âYes to the first,â he replied. âBut no to the second. I really wanna see how long I can go, now.â
Steveâs eyes darkened and he kissed Bucky with heat and passion. Bucky moaned and yielded to him like putty in his hands. Steve knew exactly how to get him going.
âYou got it,â Steve said.

Author note: Just like in "Epic Encounter" I will be mostly writing original plot that follows ish alone the plot. I will make changes here and there, cause it doesn't make sense to me that some characters stay the same with my oc as an addition to the story.
If you guys have any requests for this series, let me know. I'm open to everything.
Warning: angst, softness of soft, series situations and conversations, PTSD, mental health, betrayal, mention of abuse and harassment, mention of death
