    Summary

    A series of one-shots of Kirsh's early years before the start of Alien: Earth. Watch as he learns about the world around him to include the complex relationship between humans and synths and how his own relationship with his creator, Boy Kavalier, differs from others and yet holds the same intrinsic key element that all have. He is property. He is a machine. And he isn't free.

    This series is likely to have no chance of plausibly fitting into canon once we find out more about Kirsh and Boy Kavalier's past. Or at the very least, particular one-shots are likely to not have any place even though within this series, each fic is meant to be connected and a slow progression leading up to the start of Alien: Earth. But until we learn more about their past, I'll have fun writing for these two fascinating characters and speculating on their complex relationship!

    Summary

    John's version of the super-soldier serum is far from perfect —yet another difference from Steve Rogers. When a mission in Antarctica goes wrong, John must face not only his sensitivity to the cold, but also the memories that haunt him and the agents of AIM, all while the rest of the team scrambles to catch up. Because seriously, how did Walker end up in a freezer in Antarctica?

    Summary

    John Walker doesn’t sleep much. The tower is too quiet, bright, and full of people who don’t quite know what to do with him. It's a new sort of normal he can't seem to get used to, no matter how hard he tries.

    Still late at night, when the halls go still, something shifts. He has said a lot these last few weeks. The one thing he hasn’t spoken up about is his ever-growing theory that the tower is haunted, not by a ghost, then by small mercies. Quiet gestures that make the days feel a little less heavy.

    (Or: five small acts of care no one takes credit for, and one moment of kindness Walker can’t ignore.)

    Summary

    ”What are you two looking at each other all knowingly for? It’s creepy. I do not like it,” Yelena complained. She made a ‘gimme’ gesture. “Share with the class.”

    Bucky sighed. "There might be a small chance that we’ll be working with Sam on this job.”

    “Sam, like Sam Wilson? Like, actual Captain America?” Bob asked excitedly, nearly choking on his coffee. He grimaced apologetically after John rolled his eyes at his comment. “Sorry, Walker.”

    ***

    Or: Months after the formation of their team, a joint New Avengers and Captain America mission goes sideways when Sentry decides to make a surprise appearance. John Walker, of all people, is the one to have to deal with it.

    Summary

    John had been shot before—when you’d seen as many combat scenarios as he had, you were bound to catch a stray bullet at least once. But the more he glanced down, trying to stay together in front of all these eyes, the more he realized he hadn’t just been clipped. No, he was lucky if this missed something vital.
    He needed to get back to the Tower. He could deal with it there—and nobody would have to know he’d been brought down by one bullet.

    * * *

    Closely following their public debut, the Thunderbolts find themselves—in the absence of any aliens, robots, or wizards—taking on some very violent individuals with guns and itchy trigger fingers. John Walker gets badly injured—healing is a vulnerable thing that he makes easy for nobody, not even himself.

    Summary

    "Bilbo never bothers denying that he is a slight, little bit, probably infatuated with Thorin. It’s not something that bothers him. Really. He’s pretty sure that everyone very likely has a little flutter in their chest for the dwarf. He’s something grand and unattainable.

    And it’s really much safer if it stays that way."

    Summary

    “Michelangelo?”

    Mikey’s head snaps up like a rubber band, so fast it hurts his neck. His father is standing in the doorway, whole and unharmed and strong. He tilts his head, taking in the probably dumb way Mikey is just standing there staring up at him.

    He’s alive. In this moment, in this memory, he’s alive. But just a minute ago he was dying, he was choking on blood and then he was gone, and no matter how many times Mikey cried for him he didn’t come back.

    Mikey’s chest feels like it’s closing around all his squishy insides like a fist. It’s really hard to breathe in a way that isn’t just desperate gulping gasps for air, so he holds his breath. It’s a good and useful thing that aquatic turtles can do it for a long time.

    “I thought you and your brothers had left already,” the rat says mildly.

    “We did? I mean, uh, yeah, we did,” Mikey says. He watches Splinter’s expression tighten in tiny inscrutable ways, and knows he didn’t do a very good job of sounding normal. So he clears his throat and finds a lopsided smile and tries again. “I just had to come back for something.”

    Summary

    Dreadwing survives Megatron’s betrayal, and escapes the Nemesis with his life. He knows he cannot return to avenge his brother right away, lest he want to court death again, so he needs to lay low and plan his next moves properly. It’s too bad he ends up adopting a group of four younglings. That might just but a dampener on his plans.

    The Rescue Bots hadn’t ever thought they’d be adopting a large, formerly Decepticon Seeker. Yet here they are. He’s a little rough, and he’s known only War and combat for so long, but that’s alright. They can teach him how to enjoy life without fear of death hanging over his head. They just have to be patient, right?

     

    OR: In which Dreadwing lives, the Rescue Bots get a new ally/mentor/father, and the Burns family learn more about Cybertron, it’s War and their Cybertronian partners than they ever thought they would.

    Oh, and Blades is part of a gestalt. There’s that too. Unfortunately, he doesn’t know where his brothers are, or if they’re even alive.
