Summary
Mel King was a creature of habit.
There was a specific sort of choreography to her life beyond the chaos of the Emergency Department. A carefully controlled routine, a color-coded calendar, a rigid set of rituals that kept her grounded enough to keep showing up day after day, to keep on doing the work that was required of her to save lives.
Everything was going fine for Mel. Her personal life was predictable, unexciting, and perfectly fulfilling, thank you very much.
Enter Frank Langdon, agent of chaos.

“Mm?”
“Will you watch the fireworks with me tonight?”

Summary
I set the fire, Mizu had confessed thickly into Taigen's ear, when their mouths were still filled with ash, eyes half-sealed with tears from acrid smoke.
Did you have a choice? Taigen had asked as a response, hauling them forward another step across a bridge, toward another life.
Mizu had fallen silent—so silent that Taigen lifted his chin in worry that he had drawn his final breath without Taigen's permission.
No, the not-samurai had told him then. I did not have a choice.
And Taigen believed it.
Fool.
+
Post season 1 canon divergence.
Taigen crosses the bridge to pursue happiness with Mizu instead.

Summary
The closer they become, the more she tries to distance herself, and the more suspicious he is of her.
Thoughts turn to floods. Words become shrouded. Touches become weapons, a storm of arrows raining on her mind at night, spearing her with the want to give him what he wants. To follow him to his room at night. To step close and trickle a hand down his chest; to be a waterfall pooling at his hips.
Hazard zone.
With the responsibility of leading the New Avengers weighing on her, Yelena can only hope she's strong enough to save the people who need saving. She faces her fears by emptying mags and pushing her body to oblivion. That's always the plan.
Half a year is how long it takes for Yelena to be afraid of what Bob means to her. She's pretty sure fighting isn't her best option anymore.

Summary
Three months after New York was swallowed by a nightmarish blanket of psychological agony, Robert Reynolds was once again just Bob.
And Just Bob liked boring French New Wave and Depeche Mode and pictures of baby Highland cows. He stacked fries in his burgers like Jenga towers. He liked Jane Kenyon, Allen Ginsberg. Made a mean Lasagna alla Bolognese. Played guitar (kind of). Knew how to jumpstart a car (pretty well, actually). He liked chess.
He’d spent most of his life high, bridging sober gaps with odd jobs and side hustles and jail. He’d stolen from everyone who cared enough to let him into their home.
Robert Reynolds wasn’t Sentry, he wasn’t the Void—but he had been.
Wasn't it only a matter of time before he would be again?
After the Void descended on New York, Yelena adjusts to the life her sister led—dealing with PR managers, government endorsements, and a team she’s only recently learned to tolerate.
And then there’s the Bob thing.
And the Bob thing is super fucking complicated.- Language:

Summary
“Did you want to talk about anything?” she asked before she could lose her nerve about it.
“What, um,” he said, and immediately there was the guard on his face, the mask. “What did— what do I— what do you think I might want to talk about?”
Yelena swallowed. The doors were still open. “Oh, I don’t know. Uh, like the, uh, crazy things my dad says. Like, maybe if you wanted to talk about that, I thought, you know, you could come in and we could talk about that.”
Bob didn’t move for a moment. His dark eyes were fixed on the floor, on the crack between the elevator and the floor to her room. On the void between, tiny and endless, a crack of pitch blackness in the building that eyes never saw and a finger couldn’t fit into, but a void all the same. “Do you… want to talk about that?” he asked, his voice quiet and low and cautious.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the aftermath of the Void, Bob and Yelena work through some stuff together.

Summary
Armin feels his face twist into a snarl briefly, but when he looks at Eren, his eyes catch on his and Mikasa’s tangled hands. Hers are squirming under his grip, and then pull against her stomach in a gesture that makes Armin dizzy for a moment. He sees again that line of red, but—it’s not blood.
When he sees what it actually is, he almost wishes it was.
“‘M fine,” Mikasa says. Her breath is coming too fast, too shallow. “Just—cold…”Eren’s eyes shine with wonder, locked on their joint hands and what’s below them; the red spilling out from the gaps in her buttons.
That is not right, Armin thinks, gut churning. That shouldn’t be happening.
But at the same time, isn’t that just the same old story?***
Eren lives, and what comes after.

Summary
Several years after the war, as rumors swirl of a Death Eater resurgence, something or someone is harming Muggles and wizards in Yorkshire. Hermione, Harry, and Ginny leave the comfort of their Ministry offices, determined to stop it. They follow its trace to a cavern on the lands of an unknown owner, where they find themselves caught — but not alone.
A vicious attack cleaves souls from bodies and inflicts visions of the world's pain. Hermione is left dissociated, sick, and vulnerable.
Draco Malfoy, furious and reluctant, must do the one thing suggested to keep her alive.
This is a story about lies and love, dark paths, and the healing magic of touch.
