This is the aged up version of @of-chaos-and-loyalty, but also in a very bad universe that happens in the actual mcu universe where she looses her mother, wife, child, and sister.
There will be an actual description of mostly what happened here and here and more lore later
Athena is the firstborn child of Sarah and James, she grew up for five years in Russia before she was taken from her birth parents. They died in a fire she unknowingly caused with her powers and she ended up in an orphanage where Liesyt and Samael Acharand adopted her.
They were taken to a Hydra facility where she was tested on amongst other children to create the strongest weapon with the red room. She was injected with super serum and trained to be a black widow. She trained with Natasha Romanoff, Bucky Barnes and Yelena Belova.
She escaped Hydra when she was fifteen, after her sister Alina was killed because of her mistakes. She met a Peggy Carter who had been transported to a different universe after becoming captain america.
At the age of only sixteen she tried to join the avengers, she was refused but was engaged for a SHIELD academy of young agents. She grew up amongs the avengers, forming a tight bond with Natasha, a reformed Bucky, a reformed Loki and Steve.
Then, she was blipped when Thanos snapped and spent five years in a void. She came back to find her mother, and meet Iyla, only a little after she felt abandoned by Steve who went to live with another Peggy while he had one just a few houses away.
She met Iyla, adopted a child, connected more with Bucky and Sam, followed them around a little bit, met John, hated John, lost bucky and sam because they fought, turned eighteen, got married, lost her mother, lost her wife, lost her child, went into a rampage of human hatred, created shelters for mutants all around the world, killed more people, got called by Bucky to help the thunderbolts fight a wanna be god, relived her worse memories, and settled with the new avengers.
Now she's just a person trying to balance life with protecting the earth, fighting government officials because she never liked governments, having beef with the president, having beef with the congress, having beef with Valentina, and finding a stable mental health.
Sorry but I am a bit embarrassed to ask would you like to rp with new people ? If not it's totally ok
Ooc : of course! I'm always happy to interact with new people! You can always send a random ask, though if you want a specific storyline or for Athena to already know your character, I would rather you dm me first so we can figure out the details.
Otherwise, I am happy to rp with anyone who would like to come my way!
Ooc : uh technically she's both a mutant and genetically modified to mutate
So, if you're interested in the whole thing, she's a mutant with a simple fire mutation with which she can create sort of weapons and fire (still figuring out the logics of this one)
But Hydra also made her mutate by injecting in her different animals dna (mostly artic fox) and adding different genetic mutations reproduced in the form of serums from other mutants (thats where her shape-shifting abilities come from and others)
Lately, Athena was always angry, she didn't know where it came from, but she felt it. And the moment she saw Steve? Oh she was just angrier, rageful even. How dare he show up here? After what he'd done?
She immediately walked up to him, ignoring the way he looked to be peacefully contemplating the new Avengers tower, and shoved him, hard. "What the fuck do you think you're doing? Showing up here after all that you did?" She snarled, teeth baring.
- @athena-carter-morningstar
Steve flinched, and instantly whirled, not offensive but defensive, countering the shove with his weight and holding his arms to block any punches. Waiting to see.
“Pardon? Who are- what did I do? I’ll listen but I’m gonna need someone to fill me in..”
Athena took a step back, as if struck. "The fuck do you mean what did I do? You're stupid enough to forget about leaving my mom and me? Or did all that time travelling fuck with your mind" she argued, scowling.
She looked familiar, like one of the kids he used to know, one who'd disappeared a while ago. She had the same face, same eyes, not the same hair, but she always changed her hair. She looked... older, too.
“Hey- hey-? Athena- tell me, is that you kiddo?” The realization hits Steve, and he steps a little closer, lowering his arms. “Where- I haven’t seen you in years, you disappeared, I’ve been trying to find you- what happened?” He asks gently
"What the heck is wrong with you" she frowned, her anger simmering down. "You left me, what do you mean you've been looking for me?" She snapped, looking all the more angry
“I- the hell?” What did I do?” He asked, desperately trying to work things out, until pieces clicked into place. Of course. Damned multiverse. “Athena- kiddo… I think… I think you fell through universes?”
Athena stops. Like dead stops. Like a fox catching her eyes on prey. And for a whole minute, nothing moves. But then she shakes her head. "Can't be- I- no"
"Stop!" She snapped, trying to wrap hwr head around it. "She's not. I watched her die two years ago. She died in my arms. Don't you dare lie to me" she hissed, baring her fangs
Steve pauses, nodding slowly. It hits him. Dammit. That brief- the one that was meant to be relevant in a few days… of course. Fuck. “The multiverse….” He murmurs, eyes widening. “Kiddo, I think… okay, we’re at the center of a multiverse fusion okay? Wrong universe. I’m in yours and you’re in mine. And that’s why it’s all so fuckin’ weird”
"Oh" she murmured, shoulders dropping with realisation. "Oh, that must've been what John was trying to tell me" she looked down, eyes wide. So... there was a version of her who still had her mother.
"You say- you say my mom is alive? And- and what about me? Who am I to you here?" She looked up, instantly questioning the logic. A universe where she was fine? It couldn't be. It had no right to.
“Kind of a pseudo niece?” He answered. “Not really defined, honestly. But you stopped by a lot, you and your wife. Visited all the time, calls me at all hours. Your ma and I weren’t together but she was like a sister to me, so I kind of put you there. But you had space and stayed over. Disappeared a few years ago and we still haven’t found you even though you’re alive”
"Iyla- iyla is alive too?" She whispered, taking a step towards him. Then the rest of his words registered. "And I ran from her?"
"In my home, you're my mom's husband. But you left after the blip, and you never came back. You went to put back the infinity stones and then... nothing" she explained.
"That makes... more sense. I would've never left her willingly" she softened a bit, melancholy settling in her words.
"Yeah, I- we're all pissed at you. Bucky, Sam, and me... my mom died not long after. A villain attacked, she just... she died in my arms. I- I'll admit, I blame you for it. My version of you," she expmained, her melancholy replaced by her usual rage.
Steve nodded. “She was sick, the decay was hurting her. She wanted to try and fight it there, you went with her, your daughter too. Sh and her mom were fighting a lot, and she… she eventually chose peace. I think you were trying to get everything together for immortality but it wasn’t enough… that was the last time anyone saw you. She was… she was at peace, she loved you. You were with her, you kept her safe. She kept joking she hoped she’d sinned enough to find her way to hell”
“I would be too, I- in what fucking world… she’s not even my wife here and I can’t imagine- no. I’d fucking fight my own variant”
That hit Athena like a punch. Her breath hitched and she put a hand over her mouth. "I could've- I-" she let out a small breathless sob, like she was holding back her own tears. "Iyla died. From her sickness. You're telling me I could've saved her?"
"I'd stab him if he ever showed his face again, no hesitation. I would've stabbed you, but you looked... different. And I needed the fight first" she tries to joke
Steve softened. “No. Not really, that’s why she argues. She didn’t want to be trapped in her state forever- she was going to be hurt, she was in pain so often. She just wanted peace, and to leave with you and Ophelia in her arms. And she did, Athena. She left laying against you after a kiss, with her daughter held on her chest and Salem at her feet, everyone she loved around her. You gave her that, Athena. You helped her die happy, in her garden, with you holding her.”
“Understandable, and I’m not mad,” he chuckled. “I’d have done the same”
"Oh gods" she sobbed, crouching on the floor to not fully crumble. She felt the tears come bwfore the sadness swallowed her. How could she not be happy anywhere?
Instantly, he hugged her tightly, stroking her hair and helping her into his arms, kneeling in the shadow of the tower. “Shhh… hey, it’s okay… let it out kiddo, I’ve got you… you’re safe..”
Lately, Athena was always angry, she didn't know where it came from, but she felt it. And the moment she saw Steve? Oh she was just angrier, rageful even. How dare he show up here? After what he'd done?

I think you were trying to get everything together for immortality but it wasn’t enough… that was the last time anyone saw you. She was… she was at peace, she loved you. You were with her, you kept her safe. She kept joking she hoped she’d sinned enough to find her way to hell”
“I would be too, I- in what fucking world… she’s not even my wife here and I can’t imagine- no. I’d fucking fight my own variant”
That hit Athena like a punch. Her breath hitched and she put a hand over her mouth. "I could've- I-" she let out a small breathless sob, like she was holding back her own tears. "Iyla died. From her sickness. You're telling me I could've saved her?"
"I'd stab him if he ever showed his face again, no hesitation. I would've stabbed you, but you looked... different. And I needed the fight first" she tries to joke
Steve softened. “No. Not really, that’s why she argues. She didn’t want to be trapped in her state forever- she was going to be hurt, she was in pain so often. She just wanted peace, and to leave with you and Ophelia in her arms. And she did, Athena. She left laying against you after a kiss, with her daughter held on her chest and Salem at her feet, everyone she loved around her. You gave her that, Athena. You helped her die happy, in her garden, with you holding her.”
“Understandable, and I’m not mad,” he chuckled. “I’d have done the same”
"Oh gods" she sobbed, crouching on the floor to not fully crumble. She felt the tears come bwfore the sadness swallowed her. How could she not be happy anywhere?
Lately, Athena was always angry, she didn't know where it came from, but she felt it. And the moment she saw Steve? Oh she was just angrier, rageful even. How dare he show up here? After what he'd done?
She immediately walked up to him, ignoring the way he looked to be peacefully contemplating the new Avengers tower, and shoved him, hard. "What the fuck do you think you're doing? Showing up here after all that you did?" She snarled, teeth baring.

Steve flinched, and instantly whirled, not offensive but defensive, countering the shove with his weight and holding his arms to block any punches. Waiting to see.
“Pardon? Who are- what did I do? I’ll listen but I’m gonna need someone to fill me in..”
Athena took a step back, as if struck. "The fuck do you mean what did I do? You're stupid enough to forget about leaving my mom and me? Or did all that time travelling fuck with your mind" she argued, scowling.
She looked familiar, like one of the kids he used to know, one who'd disappeared a while ago. She had the same face, same eyes, not the same hair, but she always changed her hair. She looked... older, too.
“Hey- hey-? Athena- tell me, is that you kiddo?” The realization hits Steve, and he steps a little closer, lowering his arms. “Where- I haven’t seen you in years, you disappeared, I’ve been trying to find you- what happened?” He asks gently
"What the heck is wrong with you" she frowned, her anger simmering down. "You left me, what do you mean you've been looking for me?" She snapped, looking all the more angry
“I- the hell?” What did I do?” He asked, desperately trying to work things out, until pieces clicked into place. Of course. Damned multiverse. “Athena- kiddo… I think… I think you fell through universes?”
Athena stops. Like dead stops. Like a fox catching her eyes on prey. And for a whole minute, nothing moves. But then she shakes her head. "Can't be- I- no"
"Stop!" She snapped, trying to wrap hwr head around it. "She's not. I watched her die two years ago. She died in my arms. Don't you dare lie to me" she hissed, baring her fangs
Steve pauses, nodding slowly. It hits him. Dammit. That brief- the one that was meant to be relevant in a few days… of course. Fuck. “The multiverse….” He murmurs, eyes widening. “Kiddo, I think… okay, we’re at the center of a multiverse fusion okay? Wrong universe. I’m in yours and you’re in mine. And that’s why it’s all so fuckin’ weird”
"Oh" she murmured, shoulders dropping with realisation. "Oh, that must've been what John was trying to tell me" she looked down, eyes wide. So... there was a version of her who still had her mother.
"You say- you say my mom is alive? And- and what about me? Who am I to you here?" She looked up, instantly questioning the logic. A universe where she was fine? It couldn't be. It had no right to.
“Kind of a pseudo niece?” He answered. “Not really defined, honestly. But you stopped by a lot, you and your wife. Visited all the time, calls me at all hours. Your ma and I weren’t together but she was like a sister to me, so I kind of put you there. But you had space and stayed over. Disappeared a few years ago and we still haven’t found you even though you’re alive”
"Iyla- iyla is alive too?" She whispered, taking a step towards him. Then the rest of his words registered. "And I ran from her?"
"In my home, you're my mom's husband. But you left after the blip, and you never came back. You went to put back the infinity stones and then... nothing" she explained.
"That makes... more sense. I would've never left her willingly" she softened a bit, melancholy settling in her words.
"Yeah, I- we're all pissed at you. Bucky, Sam, and me... my mom died not long after. A villain attacked, she just... she died in my arms. I- I'll admit, I blame you for it. My version of you," she expmained, her melancholy replaced by her usual rage.
Steve nodded. “She was sick, the decay was hurting her. She wanted to try and fight it there, you went with her, your daughter too. Sh and her mom were fighting a lot, and she… she eventually chose peace.
