    Summary

    The first time Tommy dies, he’s seventeen, and they tell him he’s a hero when the Angel’s bladed feather sinks into his chest.

    If Tommy could go back in time and tell himself one thing as blood ran rivers down his chest, it wouldn’t be comforting.

    “Get used to it,” he’d say, as cold as the blade that had done this to him. “This is all you are now.”

    ~
    as the heroes' phoenix, tommy only has one job: to die, and die, and die for them. but death hurts, and the more he dies, the less of him comes back.

    and the only people to notice? the very same villains Tommy is tasked to hunt down.

    Summary

    The first mark Izuku gets is a slight brush of green across his temple. It’s the soft touch of a mother holding her son for the first time. Inko has one to match, the same shade of green staining the tips of her fingers. Hers is more noticeable; Izuku’s tends to blend into his hairline.
    He loves it anyways. He has to. It’s the only soulmate mark he has.
    (Or: how Izuku goes from just green to a rainbow, UA-style.)

    Summary

    "Hey...can I ask you something kind of weird?"

    "Shoot," Rocky says, his voice sounding amused. "But not actually shoot."

    Grace wants to laugh at the joke (he's been getting better at joking and sarcasm) but instead he swallows, his fingers tracing idle patterns on the blanket. The ache from earlier at the classroom, the beach, the constant invisible wall feels closer tonight.

    "What does it feel like... to touch you?" he asks. "I mean, if we could. Your carapace. Your claws. What would it feel like to me?"

    Rocky is quiet for a long beat. When he sings again, his melody is thoughtful and gentle.

    "Hard. Rocky, like name. Like...strong stone that is alive. My claws are sharp but careful. My body pulses a little when I am happy. Like singing Grace can feel instead of hear." He pauses, then adds with a soft, almost shy trill, "What does human skin feel like, question? To me, I wonder."

    He imagines it.

    In his mind, the xenonite shell vanishes.

    Or: Grace is touch starved and Rocky wants to make it better

    Summary

    “No, no! Seriously, it’s okay. I’m just not,” Ryland threw his hand up in the air, unsure of what to say. “I’m not used to people telling me I looked nice. Or humans telling me I look nice, I guess, since you’re…” He gestured to Rocky.

    Rocky made a noise of affirmation.

    “Hmm. Rocky understand.” Ryland chuckled at that.

    “Well, I’m glad that—“

    “Rocky get Grace used to compliment!”

    “Uh,” Ryland paused, not wanting another moment of awkwardness to happen. “…Sure, Rocky.”

    “Of course.”

    Summary

    Peter's been disappearing for three weeks. Not physically - he still shows up to meals, still walks the halls, still goes through the motions. But he's perfected the art of being present without being there. Long sleeves. Careful timing. Strategic appearances. A performance of okay that's starting to fray at the edges.

    The problem is, the people who love him have been paying attention.

    Pepper sits in the kitchen and refuses to look away. Steve names the pattern instead of the problem. Coulson sees through every deflection. Happy speaks when Happy never speaks. And Tony - Tony's been waiting, terrified, for Peter to let him in.

    Five conversations. Five cracks in the wall. One kid who's been hurting himself in the dark, and a family who won't let him do it alone.

    Summary

    Through the window, an impossible world.

    “Rocky remember Grace favorite Earth place. Show Adrian, Eridian make it.”

    It’s the shoreline that he dreamed about, sandy beaches and crashing waves. A wall of stone encloses the beach.

    “It’s perfect.”

    Nothing could ring more true.

    Summary

    Robert was sick. He knew that. He could tell based on the fact that he threw up twice already; he was shivering despite being wrapped in blankets; he felt freezing despite how his skin was hot and clammy, and, of course, because there was a damning number on that dumb thermometer in his hands. But no one was home. No one would be home, either, so he was sick and alone. Normally Robert was just alone. Chase wouldn’t be here until later, like, 4:30pm or something. It was 7:48am and Robert thought he was going to die.

    (or: robert’s sick. like, really sick.)

    Summary

    Ryland Grace knows his time is coming.

    Worst of all, Ryland thinks Rocky knows it, too.

    But... there might be another way for him to keep living.

    ("So," Ryland says, hands clasped on the table. “An artificial body, huh?”

    “Yes.” Rocky sounds concerned. “We went over this, Grace.”)

    ⟨⟨What—What happened, question? What was that, question??⟩⟩

    The notes were high with distress as Rocky shuddered, crouching down to make himself smaller. Oh. Oh no.

    Rocky didn't know about dreams.

    “Bl-Blazer, wait—” he calls out and struggles, chains clanging together. "Blazer, come back, I-I can—”

    “You can what, Bob Bob? Pass out and fall on your dumb face?”

    The air in Robert’s lungs leaves him all at once.

    He had expected Blonde Blazer.

    He had not expected to see six familiar criminals standing in the doorway.

    Summary

    “What made you come up with this?” Grace asks. His voice is thick.

    “Grace need comfort,” Rocky says matter-of-factly. “Like a hug. This comfort Grace, question?”

    Grace presses his hand more firmly against the top of Rocky’s carapace, and Rocky shifts a bit within the xenonite, rising so that they make nearly direct contact through the panel. It’s not like they haven’t done something like this before—Rocky is always pressing his claws up against Grace’s palm—but it’s different for Grace’s whole hand to be so close, to feel the heat of a living thing against his side and against his palm all at once.

    “Yeah,” Grace breathes.

    ~~~

    On the trip to Erid, Grace is starving.

    Summary

    Rocky knows that Grace is considered an adult for his species, but his hindbrain goes crazy when he finds out he’s in his 30s. So that’s why he’s been feeling weirder than normal. His alpha instincts think Grace is a pebble.

    Summary

    He catches a glimpse of himself in the small mirror across the room.

    It’s as if he’s been frozen in time. Nothing about him has changed since he last touched the surface of his home planet.

    But of course, that’s not true. Everything has changed.

    He doesn’t understand. He doesn’t know what this means. He’s a man of science. There are rules, immutable laws of the universe, no matter where in the universe one is. Entropy, decay, deterioration. Everything in the universe experiences it.

    Everything except him, it seems.

     

    Or: While on Erid, Ryland Grace makes a startling realization: he seems to have stopped aging.

    Summary

    “No!” He protests, too loud for the soft moment and making his brother freeze in where he was about to abandon him to the sheets, “Please-” he begs, eyes burning but no tears to be shed as his voice drops back down into a hoarse whisper, “Let me have this… please?”

    “Tommy-”

    “I just-” he shudders around his own words, “Just this once? Before you go?”

    Techno chuffs softly, “I’m not leaving, Runt,” he assures, even though he doesn’t know it's a lie, “I’m not leaving, okay?”

    “You will...” Tommy’s eyes flutter shut again, exhaustion dragging him down as he longs to whisper more, “You will… You all do… you all will…”

     

    (Where Tommy dies in prison and ends up in the past with all the trauma to fuck it up again... and his scars keep appearing? What the hell?)
