    Summary

    They’re about four days into their journey through the Scorch when Thomas notices it.

    Newt's leg is giving him trouble.

    And that's an issue—just slightly, because Newt is touchy about his leg on a good day, but now, for some reason, he seems absolutely hellbent on avoiding Thomas's help at any cost, even if it means he has to limp around in pain all day.

    Thomas doesn't understand, and Newt only gives half-answers, bats him away, until he can't outrun the truth any longer.

    They talk about it.

    --

    Or:

    Newt struggles with his leg, Thomas is clueless, they both pine a little, and someone takes a tumble. Not necessarily in that order.

    In the summer of 1976, Sirius Black runs away from home – twice. This is a story of two brothers, what it means to love and to hate, and how, try as we may, we can never quite escape our own tangled roots.

    Summary

    The pain is overwhelming, and it’s not getting better. It’s been thrumming absentmindedly beneath his skin all day, all summer, and no matter how much time passes, it never lessens.

    Sirius squeezes his eyes shut, trying to block out all the noise of the dying feast around them, trying to find the strongest surge of pain, locate its location, and tuck it away behind his own crumbling protective walls. It’s futile. James’ mischievous eyes, Remus’ amused smirk, Peter’s encapsulating hugs, they’ve worn down his defenses.

    You can’t build a fortress with a hidden doorway. It’s pointless. An entrance is an entrance. A leak is a leak. And it’s all spilling out.

    OR

    Sirius deals with his parents’ abuse while at school, but he never realizes just how dangerous the game they're playing is.

    Summary

    “Iron Man,” Loki stated—questioned, more like, by the tone—turning around to face him, although his gaze was oddly a few degrees off of Tony, his hands raised in a defensive gesture. “Anthony Stark,” he stated, and this time Tony noticed that his voice sounded suspiciously more like a dry rasp, as if he hadn’t used it in months.

    Except for screaming, probably, that is, the part of his brain still recovering from The Cave supplied merrily.

    “In the flesh,” Tony replied, trying to keep himself unfazed. The whole starved look was probably an illusion anyway, he told himself.
     
    Tony was pretty sure he heard Loki mutter a resigned “So this is how I die, then,” to himself.

    All right, this was giving off some solid horrible vibes, and not in the A Feral Demigod of Evil and Trickery is Going To Kill Me sense, either.


    Or: A broken "hero", a shattered "villain", and the pain, hope and parallels in between.
