Summary
“Tell me,” She pauses. “What do you think it means to live?”
He blinks. He’d already answered this question, all those years ago. He remembers the day better than any other, in distinct clarity. The way the sun clung to the sky and the way the air stuck to his lungs, the trees and the mountains and every word.
"I am afraid I have already answered this question,” He shuts his eyes on reflex. It feels a bit disrespectful to regard her in such a manner.
She hums. “Not to be alive,” There is a small pause. “To live.”

Summary
He did it all for the better of everyone, for the village, for Rin, for you.
It was never just for himself. The world has the nerve to call him selfish, too.
Now what about you?
You are Kakashi Hatake, and you have been mourning a living, breathing man for twenty years.

Summary
The Van der Linde gang has gone through a lifetime of grief over the course of just a few days, licking their wounds after the failed Blackwater heist and attempting to get back to business as usual. Javier is no stranger to these aches and pains: he copes by treasuring every moment he's given, even as bad habits, old and new, start to bloom.
He might be able to tame them with a song, if he can keep from pulling open old wounds again and bleeding out.

Summary
He reckons he feels nearly as lost as John does, and twice as lonely.
They've both lost the family they had in the gang, but John still has his actual family. John's got somethin' left to cling to, a woman and a son who love him, and what's Javier got left? Who's around to love him?
°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°•°
This is an alternate ending where Javier follows Arthur and John instead of Dutch at Beaver Hollow.
It's intended to be read as a part two/alt ending to my other Jovier fic that's in this series, but can be read alone with the caveat that the relationship between John and Javier is many years established by now. And also very emotionally constipated and full of so many misunderstandings it's probably a world record. It's written in the same format with multiple POVs.
Enjoy!Series

Summary
He knows he’s lying to himself. He’d just hoped that if he believed in the anonymous, detached killer that is Javier Escuella, that he would come into existence. Not this collection of dust and scars and loneliness that keeps breathing despite the world’s efforts to let it die.
Javier is left alive in El Presidio.

Summary
“Just promise me you’ll let yourself rest and be happy. I’m pretty sure we’ve all earned that by now.”
Steve nodded and pulled Natasha into a tighter embrace, burying his face against her hair.
“Yeah. Yeah, okay. I promise.”
Natasha was right, as she so often was. They had so many reasons to be happy now, and they could have more reasons every day. It was just going to take some getting used to. Steve was looking forward to it.
Steve, Natasha, Sam, and Bucky at the beginning of their happily ever after.
