    Summary

    "Louis felt like he was drowning and burning all at once.

    The familiar, bottomless well of emptiness and resignation pulled at his ankles. The white-hot holy fire of Claudia’s rage scorched his skin, threatening to blind him. Her vengeance had been biblical in its unflinching ferocity. There was only one way this could play out that wouldn’t destroy them all. Mutually assured destruction had nearly ruined them. Compromise had paralyzed them, trapped them in an endless stalemate.

    As things were, there was no chance at anything other than mere survival."

    Louis puts down the knife. Claudia leaves the nest. Lestat endures.

    Summary

    Imagine if Thomas were the one who happened to follow Lady Rose and Anna into that dance hall in York...

    Imagine if Sam Thawley was there with his valet friend Richard...

    Imagine if Richard were to tag along on Sam's quest to track down Rose, because of course he's worried for his mate - and yes, that gorgeous under-butler works at Downton Abbey too, so what...

    Summary

    Not much is known of Steve before 1943 and he likes it that way.
    When asked about his father, he says he died of mustard gas in WW1 before he was born.
    When asked about his mother, he says she was the model American woman of her time.
    When asked about Sargent Barnes, he says he couldn't have asked for a better best friend. Such a boy scout, like the comics.
    Those become the short truths of his past when Steve Rogers became Captain America. Nice. Sweet. Marketable.

    ...too bad these truths ain't worth shit.

    Summary

    The shivering figure in the cell corner had stopped screaming now that Natasha had stopped speaking to him, and instead was just shuffling himself helplessly into his corner. Shudders raced randomly over his body like electric shocks, making his half-twisted spine twitch under his skin.

    “What did he say?” Tony asked.

    Natasha closed her eyes. “Numbers. He was repeating numbers.”

    “What numbers?”

    “Three two five five seven zero three eight.”

    “Which means?”

    She opened her eyes, the green flashing.

    “What numbers would any prisoner be chanting? It’s a serial number, dumbass.”

    Tony already had Jarvis running the numbers through a military database, and before she had finished speaking, Jarvis had fed a name to him.

    Tony slipped his helmet down to stare blankly at Nat.

    “...It can’t really be him,” he said, as if hoping she’d agree and have a different, reasonable explanation. “He shouldn’t have survived that long.”

    “I know.”

    “He CAN’T have survived that long.”

    “Steve did,” she said softly.
