Summary
“The stars really are the greatest reminder of how our actions have no consequence in the grand scheme of things. Even tonight; I kill you, the love of your life suffocates in that barrel—”
Tim’s heart clenches.
“—maybe it means something to you, to your friends, to your little sister, sure, but outside of here? Beyond your precious city? Out there in the universe? Not even a blip. The world keeps turning, the planets stay in their paths of orbit. The stars aren’t moved by your loss, but aren’t they beautiful all the same?”
Or:
A certain redhead pulled the strings behind the attacks on the officers of Mid-Wilshire, and Tim and Lucy suffer the consequences. 522 canon divergence. -

Summary
Lucy Chen swears she’s fine — she would never let a little thing like getting kidnapped rattle her. She’s put in the work, said all the right words, and moved on. But when she’s asked to go undercover in a human trafficking ring, the cracks in her armor begin to widen. The faces, the fear, the echoes of what she once survived, have the word ‘no’ on the tip of her tongue.
But her pride and need to prove herself win out in the end, and she finds herself agreeing. The lines blur faster than she expects. Shadows start to creep in — softly, at first, then louder. She feels herself spiraling, the lines between Lucy Chen and Lucia Bright fading with every breath. She’s drowning, too far gone to pull herself out alone.
She needs help.
Tim steps in — an anchor in the storm, the kind of partner she needs. He knows her better than anyone: the way her hands shake when panic rises, the shift in her demeanor when the memories start to close in. He fights alongside her, pulling her back when she needs, but letting her fight her way through.
