Summary
Finally visiting the South Pole was supposed to be a fun time. Sokka and Katara were especially happy to at last show their earthbending friend where they came from, but for Toph the snow and ice force her to face some hard facts.
First: She's blind. Actually, truly blind. And second: Zuko's a stupid, awkward, over-protective drama queen who somehow makes her blindness all about him.

Summary
Tim learns that Jack Drake isn't his biological father, and only has "small" clues to figure out who is.
Such as an outrageous healing factor that he has to hide from the bats.
oh and the fucking bone claw that sprouts from the back of both of his hands gives him a pretty clear message.

Bookmarker's Notes
Professor Charles Xavier, wrote that while the Meta gene could be documented and traced through a lineage until an ancestor that was affected by an incident from an outside means, the ‘X’ gene popped up in those with no outside interference.
Meaning that, according to the professor, Metas were the results of a bloodline being enhanced by the likes of aliens, like Superman; gods, like Wonder Woman; or by scientific mishaps, like the Flash. Those that possessed the ‘X’ genome instead, were considered mutants, or the result of the world’s natural progression.

Summary
What if Tony decided in Siberia that he couldn't just go home? He was used to being the scapegoat, but this time the cost would be more than he could pay.
Ross would have the ammunition he needed to get Iron Man under his control, and what he'd do with the tech didn't bear thinking about.
Tony decided to use Protocol Pass The Torch. He'd be fine. A penniless fugitive's life would make a nice change of pace. Everything would be peachy keen.
(Tony miscalculated the pull the world had on him. He also miscalculated how many people would join him. Ultimately, Thanos underestimated him.)

Bookmarker's Notes
(T: occasional (brief) violent death)
-
"I do not even know where the idea that the scepter could enhance human abilities originated. Loki used it to create obedient servants by usurping their wills, so logically that was what Hydra should have been attempting."
-
'Dumping?' that's more like burning letters to Santa in the fireplace and expecting magic to happen.Web pages have to be found by search engines that follow links, crawling from one to another, organizing.
SHIELD's data had been documents stored internally on stand alone computer systems. They weren't HTML web pages. There were no links to existing internet sites or Tony wouldn't have had to physically link Jarvis to the helicarrier. The helicarrier only had information relating to its own functions, including the research and storage of the Phase Two weapons. If they'd had Hydra mission reports... he'd have learned about his parents then.
Romanoff hadn't just removed firewalls from SHIELD's files, that would have done nothing.
Somehow, she'd converted everything to webpages, and uploaded everything to various clouds, and then put links on common words in every file to existing popular sites. Search Wikipedia for hawks, and find Hawkeye's mission reports. Go looking for a toy helicopter on Amazon, find the helicarrier's blueprints. He didn't know the exact sequence of events of course. Probably the raw data was uploaded along with the converter and linking programs, and the power of the cloud itself was used to do the rest.
He wondered if Fury realized exactly what Romanoff planned to do, or if he'd been blindsided, and then couldn't admit he'd screwed up.
