  1. Summary

    In an unnamed city in the US, there exists an organization that is distinctly not the assassins that seeks to root out corruption. Except there’s a lot of it and people keep dying and the organization is falling apart around them.

    (This is a modern-AU of the extended Assassin’s Creed universe that happens in a world without guns but where people keep dying anyway. Mostly these are one-shots from that AU, but there's a main AU story coming eventually maybe. Mistakes happen, people die.)

    Summary

    Sometimes Tony forgets about the Steve who was deathly ill all the time, the scrawny guy in the old photos, thin-faced and sickly but with the same hard, I-don’t-like-bullies look in his eyes. Maybe there’s something about that, growing up that way, that makes a guy acutely allergic to concern. 

    Maybe if you’ve grown up constantly knocking on death’s door, you aren’t all that phased when the door swings open.

    Maybe Tony’s developing his empathy a little too much. This is uncomfortable. He misses being rich and powerful and isolated and not having to think about other people’s feelings.

    Summary

    On the train platform, Harry suffered a hug from Remus, a hair ruffle from Sirius, and a "don't do anything I wouldn't do" from his mother, and then he ran for the brick wall, cart rattling before him. The snowy owl they'd gotten him hooted softly in protest. Harry had named her Ororo after the Muggle comic books his mother had introduced him to. Lily took Harry to the comic store every time he sat through a whole visit with his aunt, uncle, and cousin and didn't kick anybody unless they kicked him first.

    Bill tried to wipe some dirt off a dodging Ron's nose. Ginny complained loudly about being left behind. Fred and George ran off to see Lee Jordan's spider. People watched the Weasleys from all directions--they were hard to miss--and Ron's shoulders slowly rose up and up to his reddening ears. He missed the big empty orchards behind the Burrow already.

    Ron was one of the last people on the train. He slid past staring eyes and finally stepped himself into an almost unoccupied compartment-- there was just one small boy tucked in there. He had messy dark hair, slightly askew round glasses, and a comic book held up in front of his nose.

    "Is it okay if I sit here?" said Ron. "Everywhere else is full."

    Summary

    There is no place in the work of an assassin for the heavier side of grief, for the inconvenience of motionlessness and tears. Grief becomes rage and rage becomes blood catching in the mechanism of the (wonderful, awful) hidden blade, drying on the insides of his wrists where the leather has left dark marks.
