    Summary

    She isn’t afraid. She isn't, but she thinks perhaps she is supposed to be.

    There just isn’t much she feels at all—nothing as she poured gasoline over Silco’s desk, nothing as she dropped the match, nothing as she watched the bar burn, nothing as she cut her braids.

    She doesn’t know why she thought this would be any different.

    There’s no big climax, no dramatic swell of music or emotion or tears.

    Nothing.

    Jinx pulls the pin.

    “Mama!”

    Summary

    Silco's... not a good parent. As much as he loves his daughter, he has a few flaws when it comes to her. But he can explain it all away, from slipping drugs into her tea to keep her his perfect little girl to keeping her safe away from the world. He can even explain giving her to the Enforcers in exchange for Zaun - after all, they've given their word that Jinx is not to be harmed.

    Ekko, meanwhile, went to the bridge upon overhearing the Enforcers' plans to capture Jinx on their radios - she's too far gone, and as the last person who knew Powder as well as the leader of the Firelights, it's his job to put her down.

    But after rescuing her instead upon realizing Jinx is still at least a little Powder, when he learns that 'Jinx' the persona isn't real but instead a defense mechanism, upon learning about the drugs in her system and the pain and fear inflicted on her, he insists she can be saved.

    And thus begins the rest of her life.

    (Featuring childhood-friends-to-enemies-to-friends-to-lovers Timebomb, a complicated relationship between Jinx and Silco, genius Firelight bioengineer Jinx/Powder, and Jinx proving she's stronger and better than anyone gives her credit for.)

    Summary

    This is a collection of various Powder and Ekko themed flashbacks/stories, ranging from one-shots to multi-parts or full part chapters. There will be chapters dealing with just one of them or the other, as well as any kind of Timebomb content (meaning, chapters with both of them, together). It's to dig into the very adorable and dorky friendship the two very clearly possessed, as well as what might have been like for them during their childhood, before everything turned to shit. And yes, if it's not clear, there will be Ekko x Powder! It's just not the ONLY focus (but it is in my heart <3).

    The perspectives will vary by chapter, so you will see chapters from Vander, Vi, Powder, Ekko etc etc. You MAY also see the same chapter through a different POV! Please note that all chapters are connected and may shift in "time".

    PLEASE DO NOT REPOST MY STORY ANYWHERE WITHOUT MY PERMISSION!

    NOTE AS OF NOVEMBER 16th 2024:

    I don't know if I'm going to continue this guys, I'm just so busy, but I won't say never, because I'd love to try again some day. Thank you to all still reading and commenting. :)
