    Summary

    "You and I have never been a mother and child, that year you could've carried a rock under your heart how much I've meant to you. "

    What if all the misfortune that befell onto Shaoshang had just been a series of nightmares Yuanyi had while she was pregnant with twins? What if they changed the course of events and gave Shaoshang a better life, happy life, life free of torment and heartache?

    Summary

    The first time Ben Parker meets Tony Stark, he punches him square in the face.

    Tony bites back a curse and ignores the way his eyes water as he looks back up at the man. Ben’s not angry, which is part of the reason the punch took him by surprise. They’re lucky the door is closed, or Happy would have tackled him to the ground.

    “Did that make you feel better?” Tony asks, the sarcasm in his tone biting, but Ben takes it as a serious question.

    “No.” If Tony didn’t know any better, he’d say the man almost cracks a smile. It’s hard to tell, and Tony’s never met a man he can’t read, but Ben doesn’t look angry (seriously, why doesn’t he look angry?), even though that punch felt angry. “...Maybe a little.”

    ***

    Or, May dies instead of Ben. We’ve seen Ben’s legacy – but what about May’s?

    Losing a mother is something different from losing a father, but either way, it hurts.

    Summary

    She could run away. It’s really not an option, if she thinks about it logically. But she looks at Fourth Prince, at the stubborn line of his jaw, and. She’s almost sure he’s serious. If she tells him right then that she doesn’t want this, then he will find a horse and spirit her away before the guards can so much as sneeze. And it’s—the first real choice anyone has given her.

    Ironically, it’s this that makes the decision for her.

     

    By the King's decree: the first daughter of the Hae clan will be wed to the Fourth Prince.
