    Summary

    Given a choice between Tony Stark and Steve Rogers, Tony is pretty sure most worlds would choose him to search for a misplaced Winter Soldier. After all: look at what Rogers did to their own for his Bucky's sake.

    What he fails to account for is the wormhole's destination, which happens to be the middle of WWII. It's a nightmare come to life... for the Winter Soldier as well as Tony Stark.
    --
    Tony's life doesn't flash before his eyes or anything like that. He's almost died too many times to still have that nonsense going on. He has a split second to think: well, of course, and also, fuck, I promised Barnes I'd get him home. Of course it would happen like this. Ever since Rogers walked into his life, Tony has been destined to be killed by him because of Barnes.

    The shield is almost instantly caught in a metal hand. The Soldier twists all of Sergeant Barnes on the axis of his shoulder, landing him roughly on the floor face down, and slices the shield down. It ricochets off the cement floor and sticks to the roof of the hangar with the eerie sound of shearing metal.

    Summary

    "It really doesn't have anything to do with you," Hawks tries to explain, which obviously backfires.

    "The fuck it doesn't!" Dabi lunges forward, grabs the collar of Hawks' compression shirt and yanks Hawks up to growl in his face. "You murder someone for me, you do something that could get you killed, for me, and it doesn't have anything to do with me?"

    "Okay," admits Hawks, "When you put it like that—"

    Hawks make a series of regrettable decisions.

    Summary

    Hawks' approach is languid, his expression is easy and open. Even knowing it's fake, Dabi can't see the cracks in the façade. Horrifying, really.

    "Hey," Hawks greets as he enters the shadow of the alley. He then proceeds to crash against the brick wall at a glacial pace, face smooshed up against the brick and his shoulders and torso slumping to follow.

    In half surprise, half genuine glee, Dabi cackles. Hawks' arm twitches at his side like maybe he'd flip Dabi off if he had the strength.

    Dabi's still chuckling when he asks, "How ya feelin', hero?"

    "Like shit," Hawks grumbles into the wall.

    "You look it," Dabi assures him, grinning and pulling out his phone. He came all this way; Hawks can afford to wait a minute while Dabi gets a few pictures.

    Trying to get a ride home from a party, Hawks misdials and gets Dabi. Dabi, thinking it'll be fun to see his "favorite hero" drunk out of his mind, agrees to help Hawks get home.

    Things get a lot less fun when Dabi realizes Hawks isn't drunk.

    Summary

    The mood shifts when Hawks lays back and Dabi’s power comes crashing down on his shoulders. Sparks dance beneath his palm, between his fingers. He could end everything now, the two of them together just ashes mixing in the dark apartment. He could hold Hawks here, forever, in this moment.

    He places his hand against Hawks’s throat. He can feel the moment Hawks swallows, his body going slack beneath him, waiting for whatever Dabi chooses to do.

    “You’re mine,” Dabi whispers, into the darkness. “ This is mine.”
