    Summary

    Yelena Belova knew she had a soulmate from a very young age.

    Someone the universe had chosen to share her scars, her emotions, and all the bruised pieces in between. It was what anchored her through everything in life, the very reason she still pushed herself through her training in the Red Room, when Natasha died, when she felt like she had no purpose anymore...until her soulmate's injuries ceased to exist that she realized she was all alone.

    As far as Bob knew, he had never given much thought to soulmates.

    He always felt her there, tugging at the little string that connected them and sending along happy thoughts.

    However, he'd always ignore it. It wasn’t his number-one thought in his already chaotic childhood. Not until the day he started feeling emotions and getting injuries that weren’t his. And then, nothing else mattered but trying to find her when a plethora of scars started to appear on his body...even if it meant entering the Sentry Project that would heal all his scars by accident.

    Or: AU where pain is shared by both soulmates.

    Summary

    "Buck," Sam's voice is music to his ears even if the tone lets him know just how long he is going to be sleeping on the couch for, "Do I even want to know how you got into this mess?"

    Mess is...a pretty good description for what's going on. Seventy-two hours ago Bucky did not have a group of mostly strangers and one almost-demigod making a mess of his Brooklyn apartment and he sure as hell wasn't the senior member of The New Avengers. It's been a long few days, but it says a lot when they haven't been the worst of his life.

    "It's a long story, Sam."

    "Good. I have the time. Start talking."

    --

    There's a lot that happens in New York City, especially with a team as dysfunctional as The Thunderbolts-slash-New-Avengers.

    Summary

    Bob hated to admit it, but the reason he agreed to join Project Sentry was envy. Driven by jealousy rather than heroism, he sought the power to match Superman’s might, believing it would finally prove his worth. But with great power comes a dangerous instability. Haunted by his past, tormented by his own failures, and pressured by a team that sees him as the planet’s last line of defense, Bob must confront the darkness within himself before it consumes everyone around him. Amid political crises and the looming threat of war, he struggles to control the immense power he barely understands while the memory of the man who once inspired him, Superman, serves as both a guide and a tormentor.
