Between Fear and Want[loki x y/n]

They saved the world.
No one ever asked who saved you.
After surviving HYDRA, you learned how to endure pain. How to stay quiet. How to survive.

But Avengers Tower isn't freedom-it's just a different kind of cage.
When old trauma starts to resurface and your control begins to slip, the last person you expect to understand you is the one everyone fears-Loki.

He keeps his distance. You don't.
And the closer you get, the more dangerous it becomes-not just for you, but for everyone around you.

Because losing control doesn't just mean hurting yourself anymore.
It means risking the only people you've ever called family.

A slow-burn story of trauma, power, and what happens when two broken people get too close to something that was never meant to heal.
