❝Dearest Diary... That's how you're supposed to begin isn't it? I wouldn't know. I'm rather new to this diary writing lark.❞ Young Charles Francis Xavier is privileged, cloistered and educated. Being the inhabitant of a mansion, the heir to a bottomless fortune and attending the best private school in the tri-state area, anyone would've thought there was nothing more a teenager could want. Richness can't buy his father back from the grave. Wealth can't afford him a loving step family. Opulence can't purchase him an ordinary life. A thousand lavished rooms can't compensate for the neglect he feels from his mother. A fleet of flash cars doesn't make up for the bullying he experiences at school. Every last penny cannot make up for the horrors of the verbal and physical abuse of his step-dad. But some influence and affluence can cover any incidents. Any blemish in his family's public persona is swiftly glossed over. His diary encompasses his daily struggles: the anxiety that comes with his teenage years, the development of telepathic powers and the intense fear that one day, his step-dad may overstep the mark. Just for once, you can listen in on the telepath's thoughts.

Jas gives me a sympathetic look. She sighs heavily, long nails tapping against the wooden table, dodging the 'Missing' posters scattered all over the surface. "Maybe," she finally says, "Just maybe, he doesn't want to be found, Ava." I clench my jaw. "No. I refuse to believe that. He's not like that." "What do you know?" Jas snorts, finally withdrawing her hand from the table and turning back to look at me. "You don't even know him." xx Ford Wilson was in three out of four of Ava Jackson's classes. They had one mutual friend, did a project together once in sophomore year, and had the same lunch. When Ava's car had broke down, she had even ended up parked outside of Ford's house, asking for gas. In Ava's life, he was everywhere. And yet, she didn't notice him until he was nowhere to be found.

Set after Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Bucky is lost, without a purpose and brainwashed within an inch of his life. S.H.I.E.L.D and Hydra have both fallen and without anyone to stop him, Bucky intends to find out who he is - or who he was - before Hydra took away every last inch of him. Steve is left recovering from the catastrophe, but knows that Bucky is still out there, and that Bucky needs his help. Steve will do everything in his power to help his best friend find out who he is again. How far would you go to help your friend recover their mind? How long would you try for? Steve knows it isn't going to be easy, and wants to set Bucky on the road to recovery; but confusion and nostalgia hides around every corner. If Bucky is to find himself once again, Steve is going to have to face some hard truths about how he lost his friend and see him through every step of the way as he recovers, seeing him through the good times, and the bad. They might soon realise that the question "Who am I?" carries so much more than a name and a face.
