Summary
Years after the events of the Battle of the Five Armies, Greenwood endures beneath a shadow that has not wholly faded.
Spiders gather once more in the south. Orcs move with growing purpose along the forest’s edges. The peace that followed victory has begun to thin.
Legolas walks the forest with a steadier heart, his duties shared with his husband, Elrohir. Their bond has endured distance, grief, and time, and has become the subject of songs far beyond their borders.
But not all things left in the past remain there.
When Aragorn, newly come into his name and lineage, crosses into Greenwood, old ties stir again, and with them, tensions long unspoken. As shadow gathers and loyalties are tested, the bond between Legolas and Elrohir begins to strain beneath the weight of what neither of them has yet faced.

Summary
Johnny is dreaming.
That is the only possible explanation as to why he isn't a floating corpse in space right now, or at the very least, being pummeled to death by Galactus. Why he has bandages on his face and is surrounded by soft sheets, like they were just freshly washed — which. Well, it can't be right.
He should be dead.
"Don't say that," orders an exasperated, yet not unkind, voice from somewhere above him. "You're lucky I found you when I did. You were burning up."
And Johnny huffs out a laugh, despite himself, despite the circumstances and the rising panic in his throat.
Oh, this stranger has no idea.
or: Johnny sacrifices himself to save the world. He wishes that was the end of it.

Summary
Robert knew it could happen. The damage to his back from the fall was immense, and there was a chance, but he didn't think it would happen. He didn't think his legs would give up on him. He didn't think there might be a way to fix it. He didn't think the team would care. Seems he got a lot wrong. Might as well take the time to find out who he is without the pressure of Mecha Man on his shoulders and the inability to use his legs. Good thing Flambae is willing to carry him until the uphill battle is won.

AKA: Robert gets no shit triggered at the office.

Summary
Johnny comes back from the Negative Zone and has to learn how to be alive again.
It wasn’t a new thing but a bad habit—Peter Parker, sweeping hapless humans off their feet. He’d forgotten about it. After all, Peter hadn’t touched him in two years. No one had—not in a way that hadn’t led to broken bones and his blood splashed on the ground.
