Summary
Mel King was a creature of habit.
There was a specific sort of choreography to her life beyond the chaos of the Emergency Department. A carefully controlled routine, a color-coded calendar, a rigid set of rituals that kept her grounded enough to keep showing up day after day, to keep on doing the work that was required of her to save lives.
Everything was going fine for Mel. Her personal life was predictable, unexciting, and perfectly fulfilling, thank you very much.
Enter Frank Langdon, agent of chaos.

“Mel,” he said carefully and she paused. With stiff shoulders and her eyes glued to the busy ED outside of the door she responded.
“Mm?”
“Will you watch the fireworks with me tonight?”

Summary
I set the fire, Mizu had confessed thickly into Taigen's ear, when their mouths were still filled with ash, eyes half-sealed with tears from acrid smoke.
Did you have a choice? Taigen had asked as a response, hauling them forward another step across a bridge, toward another life.
Mizu had fallen silent—so silent that Taigen lifted his chin in worry that he had drawn his final breath without Taigen's permission.
No, the not-samurai had told him then. I did not have a choice.
And Taigen believed it.
Fool.

Post season 1 canon divergence.
Taigen crosses the bridge to pursue happiness with Mizu instead.

Summary
The closer they become, the more she tries to distance herself, and the more suspicious he is of her.
Thoughts turn to floods. Words become shrouded. Touches become weapons, a storm of arrows raining on her mind at night, spearing her with the want to give him what he wants. To follow him to his room at night. To step close and trickle a hand down his chest; to be a waterfall pooling at his hips.
Hazard zone.
With the responsibility of leading the New Avengers weighing on her, Yelena can only hope she's strong enough to save the people who need saving. She faces her fears by emptying mags and pushing her body to oblivion. That's always the plan.
Half a year is how long it takes for Yelena to be afraid of what Bob means to her. She's pretty sure fighting isn't her best option anymore.

Summary
Three months after New York was swallowed by a nightmarish blanket of psychological agony, Robert Reynolds was once again just Bob.
And Just Bob liked boring French New Wave and Depeche Mode and pictures of baby Highland cows. He stacked fries in his burgers like Jenga towers. He liked Jane Kenyon, Allen Ginsberg. Made a mean Lasagna alla Bolognese. Played guitar (kind of). Knew how to jumpstart a car (pretty well, actually). He liked chess.
He’d spent most of his life high, bridging sober gaps with odd jobs and side hustles and jail. He’d stolen from everyone who cared enough to let him into their home.
Robert Reynolds wasn’t Sentry, he wasn’t the Void—but he had been.
Wasn't it only a matter of time before he would be again?
After the Void descended on New York, Yelena adjusts to the life her sister led—dealing with PR managers, government endorsements, and a team she’s only recently learned to tolerate.
And then there’s the Bob thing.
And the Bob thing is super fucking complicated.- Language:
