The Myzenein | STEVE ROGERS | MARVEL
Everything that ever happened to Grace McNeil can be traced back to one moment in time. The day she officially died. From that fracture came five lives, all changed beyond repair: the dead who were left behind, the traitor who walked away, the guilty who could never forget, the victor who would eventually pay dearly, and the girl left frozen, waiting for the past to return. S.H.I.E.L.D. was meant to be a fresh start-a way out of the ghosts of her cloudy past. Instead, it became the beginning of something darker: a web of lies, old wars, and choices that refuse to stay buried. Yet even now, something remains. Something the rot could not corrupt. Someone worth fighting for. - Steve rogers x FEM OC 1998 - 2025 IM RE - WRITING THE ENDING
