    Summary

    It's said that every soul is connected to another by a red thread, and that these two souls are destined to meet. The thread, though it may tangle or stretch, will never break. That's not your experience, lucky or unlucky enough as you are to see the strings that bind people together. A red thread is developed and grown, not born, and you've worked hard to weed out any semblance of crimson that might cling to you. You pay your bills, you keep your head down, and you find whatever lost people or items you're hired to sniff out.

    Then the Devil of Hell's Kitchen tags along on a job, and your plan falls apart.

     

    Starts prior to Into the Ring, and loosely follows the canon timeline. There is eventually smut, so enter at your peril. Reader is never physically described but uses a false name and may be treated as an OC.

    Summary

    High-powered public defender Steve Rogers is the American Dream. A decorated war veteran, Steve fights for the "little guy," the ones who can't help themselves, and his adoring public has him on a pedestal.

    Y/N Rumlow is struggling to survive after a messy divorce. Despite the mountain of evidence that her ex-husband was abusive and unfaithful, all of the blame was placed on Y/N. And since her ex was a lawyer, friends with the judge, and their divorce was handled less than legally, Y/N was left almost destitute.

    When Y/N's ex is gruesomely murdered, she is arrested for the crime. Her arrest and questioning is handled through the darker side of the law, and a twist of events has Steve becoming her lawyer. He's shocked to see his client, his high school sweetheart who has been through hell. He's determined to clear her name, while she's just trying to survive, with both of them trying to convince themselves that their feelings for each other died a long time ago.

    Summary

    Marvel AU/Non-canon: AU where Civil War ended differently. In Siberia, Tony backs up Steve and came to understand that Bucky didn’t mean to kill his parents. Instead, the team lives together; Bucky is de-programmed by Shuri immediately then moves into the compound. The Reader is an ex-Hydra agent who was captured before WW2 and tested on with the Tesseract and genetic experiments that enhanced her reflexes and senses. After being held captive and tortured into being a Hydra agent, the Reader escapes before they can inject her with extra serum. During her escape, she's stopped by a defrosted Bucky but manages to appeal to his humanity and escapes.

    Years later, Tony hears about a young woman in Madripoor with enhanced reflexes who fights blindfolded in cage matches. He and Bruce recruit her to join the Avengers. Neither the Reader nor Bucky expected to see each other again, resulting in a lot of... tension.

    *Clint decided not to retire and lives with his family in the non-Avenger residential compound a mile away. Wandavision and Brutasha are a thing. Other Avengers come to visit as well.*

    This is my first fanfic so feedback is appreciated!
