    Summary

    There’s a lipstick stain on her cigarette, a gun strapped to her thigh, and the only thing bolder than her personality is the shade of her smile.

    Ash is everything Eiko was told not to be, but there's glimpse of heaven beneath her lifted skirt.

    Summary

    “They tortured you,” Eiji says, his voice hardly above a whisper.

    “Eiji, I mean it--it looks about a million times worse than it really is.  I bruise like a peach.  Always have.”

    Eiji’s expression changes slightly, from pain to puzzled curiosity.

    “You bruise like a peach?” he repeats, as if trying the phrase on for size.  “I’ve never heard that expression before.”

    Ash’s shoulders relax without him meaning to.  It’s much easier to discuss silly idioms than it is to watch Eiji worry himself on account of Ash.

    “Yeah, you know, because peaches are so soft that they bruise easy.  It’s just an English saying.”

    Eiji smiles.

    “It makes sense,” he says, nodding.  “And I like it.  It fits, for you to be a peach.  You’re both so sweet.”

    Ash can’t help it--he barks out a sharp, startled laugh.

    “I’m a lot of things, Eiji.  Sweet isn’t one of them.”

    In which wounds are treated, in more ways than one.

    Summary

    Silence fell. Alexei lifted his hands up. “Well, what are we waiting for?” he shouted, gesturing at everything: the monitor showing the falling engine in real time, the countdown, the communications from the teams, the images of terror-stricken refugees filing into a temporary neighborhood in New Asgard, in Manitoba, in Ohio and Wakanda and China. Someone had set a fire in protest outside the United Nations. Smoke rose, obscuring the flags. “NOAA said this morning that all of the Eastern Seaboard needs to be evacuated. American refugees are flooding into Canada. Too many tensions, huh? Going to cause a war if we don’t do something. So what are we waiting for?”

    “A vote.” Bucky’s voice was sour and quiet as he shoved off from the wall and walked over. “We’re a team. We act like one. So we’ll vote on it.”

    When a falling hunk of space junk threatens the fate of the planet, the New Avengers (and Bob) must make a choice: risk the Void, or save the world? But the Void has plans of his own, and Yelena is always nearby...
