Steve Rogers is a wealthy philanthropist and the owner of Rogers Inc, an American conglomerate that works closely with Stark Industries.
While acquiring a small company, Project Insight, a subsidiary of S.H.I.E.L.D, Steve learns that S.H.I.E.L.D might not be the company he thought it was.
After stumbling into a back-room at a party, he finds James Barnes, an escort - or so he seems - in one of S.H.I.E.L.D’s prostitution rings.
But Barnes seems familiar, and Steve is sure they met once, many years ago, and the encounter changed his life forever.
Can Steve free Bucky from the grips of HYRDA, bring down S.H.I.E.L.D, and protect his business at the same time? Bucky has been bent and broken and Steve wants to help him as much as he can, but can he stop himself falling for him along the way?
Ok so, this is a lot of them so I'll just do short blurbs for each of them!
Brother - Esmp s1 but Lizzie, instead of loosing her memories when the apocalypse happened she instead turned into a deity of flames, and she blames Jimmy. So she goes to find and confront him, all the meanwhile her memories are slowly burnt away until all she can remember about Jimmy is that she hates him for starting the apocalypse.
When she finds him, he begs her to forgive him and calls her sister, which angers her further, and she begins using her fire to boil the water around him. Much angst and whump.
Dawning of Spring - Flower Husbands, where 3rd Life was a past life for both of them when they reincarnated into Empires. Scott finds this a lot harder because as an elf he is very sensitive to memories, so every time Jimmy says something or does something that reminds him of his past life, he'll basically pass out and when he wakes up be fully 3rd Life! Scott, which means he only trusts Jimmy.
This means that half the time they're basically very distant allies, closer to enemies than anything, and then the other half of the time Scott is holding onto Jimmy like he'll disappear if he lets go. Very cute, potential for angst.
Allies or Enemies - Same as previous Au but it's swapped. Instead of it being Esmp!Scott it's 3rd Life! Scott getting all the memories, this is worse. Esmp!Scott, while trusting Jimmy enough, also trusts most of the other players without a lot of questions. Also he doesn't know how to fight without magic.
This means that Jimmy is frantically chasing after his husband, while Scott gets almost-killed MULTIPLE times. This is bad, noone is happy with this situation. Much hurt-comfort. Jimmy being the responsible one.
Monster - WcSmp! Lauren and Scott duo! They used to know each other before Lauren was found to not have magic and kicked out of a coven and Scott found Milo and left with him. Scott and Milo were very in love so he needs to win. But Lauren doesn't recognize him, and she has her magic on loan from a shooting star, so she needs to win to keep it (she doesn't know this). It ends with Scott winning and needing to give up something to get Milo back, but he doesn't realize that what he needs to give up is his connection to Lauren, like when they were kids. Angst either choice he makes.
Everything stays - Afterlife SMP! au, Lauren is left behind on the server, with only Oli left. Lauren can sense him because he used to be and enderman and so did she, but he can't sense her because he's a bee and doesn't have magic. She knows that if he can leave he will and she can't be left alone again. She chases the magic signature and finds she's too late. He's gone, but she can follow (she's a vex). She gets to Esmp, but it's been ages, and she doesn't remember anyone but Smajor (the vampire version who looks nothing like Scott) and Oli. This causes even more chaos as she tries to figure out how ELSE she can leave a server because she can never leave them until she gets a new invite (she's never seen the Hub)
Includes a scene where Lauren looks at Lizzie and goes "weren't you that alien girl I killed" in a very casual way and refuses to elaborate.
Bucky Barnes dies in 1944.
Except he doesn’t. He blinks and opens his eyes in time to see Steve Rogers falling out of a helicarrier, miles and miles down through the air, in the bright new age of 2014.
Somewhere in the future, Steve Rogers wakes up and has no idea who he is.
if i ever die, i want someone to take the memory part of my brain and inplant it in themselves like a memory-chimera. i want their recollections of the past to feel like a mixture of water and olive oil, stirred rapidly. miniscule bubbles that are hard to distinguish from each other, but definitely not the same.
For sixpenceee
A system glitch, I think.
Well, my one sister has Down’s syndrome and when she was younger she went to a lot of therapy and preschools to find the right one that would best suit what she needed. And at some point she went to the local Goddard preschool. I remember walking into the building with my mother and sister. I remember the logo vividly. I even remember my mother parking the car. Well it didn’t work out and we moved on.
A few months ago my mother and I were driving and we passed by the school. I said “I remember when [my sister] went there for a bit” and my mother says “she never went there”. I said “really?” And she nods. And I just sat there puzzled as I went through those memories. And I said ” are you sure? Did [my other sister] go there?” And she says “nope”. “None of us went in there at any point? Not for any reason?” “No”. And the first thought that came to me was ‘How is that possible?’ I was a bit young when it happened, but the memory is just so…clear. And I’m the only one with it.
