in a world where howard stark has a genius sister, the war doesn't just make a soldier. it makes a trio. steve rogers is the compass. bucky barnes is the heart. maxine stark is the spark with grease on her hands and sarcasm on her tongue, fixing radios, fixing rifles, fixing the people she loves because it's the only kind of praying she knows. ⋆˚࿔ but the future they used to joke about doesn't survive the 1940s. her lover falls from a train and the world calls it death. her best friend disappears into the ice and the world calls it heroic. and max gets too close to hydra's protocols, sees the pattern behind the cruelty, and hydra doesn't kill her. hydra keeps her. because she's useful. because she's leverage. because she's the one thing the winter soldiers body will still recognize when his mind won't. ⋆˚࿔ ⤷ ゛{ 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙨𝙩 𝙖𝙫𝙚𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙧 → 𝙘𝙞𝙫𝙞𝙡 𝙬𝙖𝙧 𝙖𝙪 } ˎˊ˗ 𝙗𝙪𝙘𝙠𝙮 𝙭 𝙊𝘾, 𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙨𝙩 & 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙩, 𝙨𝙡𝙤𝙬𝙗𝙪𝙧𝙣 𝙧𝙚𝙪𝙣𝙞𝙤𝙣, 𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙪𝙢𝙖 𝙧𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮, 𝙝𝙪𝙧𝙩/𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙩, 𝙝𝙮𝙙𝙧𝙖 𝙝𝙤𝙧𝙧𝙤𝙧, 𝙛𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙙 𝙛𝙖𝙢𝙞𝙡𝙮

Dr. Penelope Henry wasn't new to the PTMC, but this "situationship" as Princess called it, was new. Dr. Jack Abbot, the older, brooding, night shift attending had taken a liking to Penelope immediately, though opposite shifts kept them at a safe distance. That is until she switches to night shift for her last year as a resident. The two "Dark Clouds" of the PTMC were nearly the exact same person. Having both served, with the baggage and scars to prove it, there was an immediate attraction. Meeting someone so alike, who could understand everything no one else could, resulted in both butting heads and crossing professional boundaries. As the two navigate their complicated and frustrating feelings, they're forced to acknowledge parts of themselves they never wanted to. Hiii this is my first time writing a fic so please be nice but feel free to leave suggestions! Also, please don't expect medical accuracy in this story. My only medical background is an intense search history.

Nearly a year ago, Emma had stepped into Mystic Falls for the first time in her life, never expecting that a small town in Virginia would have the power to change the course of everything. But it did. And then it all fell apart. Four months later, she's done with hiding. She's done running and living in fear. Emma's settled; in the one place that came closest to being home. The French Quarter came with its own dangers, but with right friends and the right allies by her side, Emma has nothing to fear. At least until familiar faces start showing up in the streets of New Orleans, bringing with them not only a shift in power, but memories Emma had been working hard to move on from. To forget. And just as the last time, her life will change in so many ways that Emma isn't sure if she's truly ready for it. ----- [Kol Mikaelson / OC] [Book II in The Life Trilogy] [The Originals: Season 1 - ?]

Mercy has always seen things others couldn't-visions of death, whispers of magic-but nothing prepares her for the chaos she finds surrounding Klaus Mikaelson. When Mercy is pulled into his world she never expects to find a home-let alone in the heart of the fractured, dangerous Mikaelson family. Haunted by visions and hunted by a rising evil, she becomes their unlikely ally... and Klaus's unexpected weakness. Bound to an ancient power she doesn't understand-with war brewing and past sins returning with vengeance, Mercy must choose between survival and sacrifice. But love, power, and fate are never simple-and when death calls her name, she has no choice but to answer. A story of found family, dark magic, fated mates, impossible choices, and the girl who became the heart of the Originals. *Available on a03!*

It wasn't a soulmate bond. It was deeper - more rooted. This man was branded into my soul, etched into my spirit so fiercely I'm still not sure how I didn't notice it sooner. He would tear the world apart for me. And when it came to his safety, my morals never stood a chance. 🩸 Updates every Tuesday This is not a cute story of love and fantasy. This is not a relationship to idolize. This is not a story for the faint of heart. Niklaus Mikaelson had wrecked me in the best of ways. 📍Start: April 22nd, 2025

"The burning embers, I vowed not to fight anymore" He was her worst nightmare. She was the ghost he thought he'd buried. Rory lived a quiet life-for the first time in over twenty years. Keeping her head down. Keeping her powers extinguished. But something had unknowingly ignited in the back of a former Winter Soldier's mind. In a world still reeling from heroes, legacies, and loss, two broken people collide in the aftermath-each holding a piece of the other's past, and maybe... a chance at something more. Some ghosts don't stay dead. And some fires never go out. (Bucky Barnes x OC) (Falcon and the Winter Soldier) (Character Insert) (Marvel)
