After the battle against Thanos and his armies, Marlow Hendrix is tasked with helping Steve Rogers return the Infinity Stones to their rightful times. When her mission goes awry in 1970, she keeps her resolve, waiting to find a way out of an increasingly dangerous situation while being stuck away from home and away from help. Back in 2023, Bruce picks up her signal and pulls it to the present, unaware of the danger that lurks in the past. It is only when an unexpected threat steps off the platform that they realise how badly the mission went. And when Marlow finally returns, she struggles to come to terms with her past in order to accept her future--but with the help of a familiar face, she might just do it. ⁂ Main themes: Time-travel, canon-compliant, Endgame to FATWS, Hydra, slow-burn, trauma, brainwashing, friends to lovers. ⁂ "She knew his face.

It didn't matter though; she couldn't help the hiccup of her heart as he walked in, dressed in leathers, with his hair significantly shorter than she'd ever seen in person. As his eyes landed on her, she tried not to expect his face to be the one she knew. She tried to not to expect it to shift into a look of realization, then to worry, then to protection. Because he wasn't the Bucky she knew." ________ Loosely inspired by a vid by @madsxbarnes on Tiktok

What if Tony had convinced Steve to sign the accords immediately after the tunnel incident? What if Bucky had been sent to a psychiatric facility rather than Wakanda, and the downfall of the Avengers had never happened? James Buchanan Barnes is a walking shadow of his former self. His mind is a mess of half-memories, the only constant memory being of the color red. There's blood staining his hands- blood he never wanted there, but that's there nonetheless. When he's sent to the Virginia State Psychiatric Facility, just a few miles south of the capital of the United States, no one can seem to get much out of him. He remains just as mysterious as he was when he first walked in the doors. Until Athena, a specialist known for dealing with PTSD patients, is assigned to be his psychologist. And then suddenly a whole world of horrors is uncovered, and his repressed days of torture come screaming back to life in vivid color. As Athena gets to know him, she realizes that everything Steve has said- about Bucky being a victim, not a villain- is absolutely true. And suddenly she must fight to not only save Bucky from himself, but also to clear his name in the eyes of the world- because after all, she's the only one with undeniable proof of his past. The only thing is, she must find the courage to use it. Bucky x OC 《 copyright @jordan7095 》 Cover picture is not mine. it is from Tumblr. credit goes to whoever made it.
