  Summary

  Hold my hopes underwater
  Stand there and watch them drown
  —
  After Scout's older brother dies, his family stops going on their summer trip to the family farm for two years.

  When they finally decide to go back, it's like everything has changed.

  First of all, there's a weird guy that he just can't seem to figure out. Plus people keep mentioning things about his brother that just don't seem like they can be true.

  And they're playing Assassin, and it seems like people expect Jeremy to carry on his brother's legacy of being the family champion.

  Sorry if this description sucks. Title from Until I am Whole by the Mountain Goats.

  This is my first tf2 fic, and my first fic in like a year.
