    Summary

    “I suppose that’s one good thing, at least.”

    The child’s hums mid-drink. “Hm?”

    “The branched timelines,” Loki clarifies. “There’s certainly one out there where he never gets pruned at all. Maybe he gets off the planet he isolated himself on, and he makes it back to… wherever his brother is.”

    The child scoffs. “Yeah, it’ll only take a couple thousand years.”

    Loki pauses.

    It’s not so much an idea, really, just an inkling. At least until he takes the TemPad out of his pocket, staring down at the little device and tapping his fingers against it as he thinks. He’d only brought it as a means of escape, should he ever gather his strength enough to be willing to head back to the TVA and fix any of this, but…

    “Well, maybe not.”

    (Or, Loki and Kid Loki decide to honor the old man by giving him a better future. It ends up being exactly what they both needed.)

    Summary

    “Is this Agent Steve Murphy, DEA?” says the voice on the other end of the line, an elusively familiar one with an equally elusive and familiar accent.

    “Yeah?” says Murphy, squinting ridiculously into the darkness, as if that would help him think any clearer. He really needs more sleep. More sleep, and less alcohol. “Who is this?”

    “It’s Sandoval.”

    “The fuck it is.”

    Summary

    The photo has been cut wavy around the edges, decorative as if to distract from the dead body Steve is hoisting half-aloft, front and centre, big sunny grin on his sweaty fucking face.

    Steve privately wonders if he’s smiled like that since they killed Escobar.

    “Jesus,” Peña breathes, eyes wide as he gapes up at Steve. “Jesus, Steve.”

     

    Steve and Javi and one day in D.C.

    Summary

    Mark stares out the window, at the red and orange and yellow blurs. Ricken and Devon were talking in the front seat, something about the hotel or inn or whatever. His legs were cramped. 

    This is what people did in the fall, he guessed. They went out to look at the trees, appreciate nature, go to apple festivals, all that shit.
