    Summary

    Loki and Sylvie visit Knowhere ( headquarters of the Guardians of the Galaxy) just in time for Christmas. They should just be having fun, but Loki’s got a secret that has him avoiding Nebula like the plague, and Sylvie is absolutely determined to find out what that is.

    ***

    He ran his hand down his face. “Ok, fine. You know how before I went to Earth I was working for Thanos? And some people here were working for Thanos, and some of them — one of them — may have uh… not been overly fond of me.”

    “Fond?”

    Loki took a deep breath and began a gesture laden explanation while intently looking everywhere but Sylvie’s eyes.

    Summary

    “It is a truth universally acknowledged, that in a crew past certain size there always forms a couple. Isn’t that how things went with the Guardians back when they were just getting started?” the woman says. Pausing for effect before adding, “And, if I remember correctly that begun with a fight too...”

    “That proves nothing,” she replies. Weakly. Struggling to make it not make sense. To jump of this train of logic before it reached the station and she too would find herself believing this could only end one way. “She’s not even on the crew anymore. Not technically. And... No. You can’t make me believe that. Not about our scary, badass leader. She’s not going to suddenly become a completely different person. Which is what she’d need to be if your narrative is ever supposed to be more than that.”

    “Of course not, dear. After all, she’s never done that before. Still the same ruthless killing machine Thanos made, all these years later...”

    She glares at the older woman, finding herself once again confronted with a fact she did not need to be reminded of right now.

    “Please stop making it sound plausible,” she says eventually.

    Summary

    “Protecting someone who attacked them...” his daughter says – trying to picture it and apparently finding she can. Very easily. “Heroes, am I right?”

    “Heroes that might still end up wishing they pressed charges,” Dey points out darkly.

    “Dad, come on. It’s the Guardians. They obviously had a good reason.”

    “Honey, do me a favour. Say maybe it was all just a misunderstanding.”

    “Do you know for a fact it wasn’t?” she counters.

    “I don’t know anything for a fact. The official story has changed to nothing to see here and if you think there is you can take it up with Nebula and everyone is sticking to it. We’re never going to find out what the hell happened there. Not unless the goldie flies to Xandar in a fit of guilt to confess. And that just feels like another thing that might have to be taken up with Nebula first.”

    “Well... if it helps at least you did finally solved the mystery of who’s even in charge on Knowhere,” his daughter informs him, grinning. “You’ve been stuck on that one for months and all you did was narrow it down to probably not Starlord.”

    Summary

    “The High Evolutionary said there was something wrong with me. That’s the the thing I keep coming back to... That keeps coming back to me. That one memory...” he tells her, taking a breath as he tries to find a way to say the rest. “He was right, you know. I couldn’t appreciate that then. I didn’t like hearing it so I snapped something back, like the impatient child I was... And if I didn’t, if I just kept quiet and waited... maybe he would have said more then. If I just let him finish he’d name it. What it was that wasn’t quite right about me. Maybe if I knew...”

    “You could fix it,” she says, seeing him heading for that heartbreaking conclusion even as he was struggling to put his repeating dreams into words.

    Words he shouldn’t even be thinking. But he was so young. So confused by how the universe kept not meeting the expectations others built up for him.

    “I’ve been trying to figure out what he could have meant. He said it like it was so obvious but... The more I think about it the more flaws I notice and I don’t know which one...”

    Summary

    ”Even I think it’s weird for you to have a team around you. But that’s the arrangement we made back when you were definitely concussed so that’s what we’re stuck with. We gotta make it work.”

    “I do, don’t I? Have to make it work. By actually starting to take orders,” he says, not even trying to argue with what he just been told. It’s not like the raccoon was wrong.

    “It’s that or we figure a different kind of arrangement. I did hear she’s looking for someone to fetch her coffees for her,” Rocket tells him, gesturing at the lone, blue figure standing with her back to the still smouldering building a few streets away.

    “First of... dreamjob. I don’t hate it when she yells at me. The opposite really.”

    “You are all grown up, aren’t you? And somehow even worse than Starlord...” groans the leader of the Guardians. “Tell you what... I’m going to pretend I didn’t hear that and you’re going to pretend it’s not true and if we’re very, very lucky you won’t get stabbed again.”

    Summary

    “Oh no...” says her fellow employee – the one who took such pleasure in putting as many obstacles between Tivan and the meeting with Nebula he seemed to be after. “Howard, you had one job.”

    “It was doomed to fail,” she commiserates with her colleague. That currently looked equal parts furious yet not ready to give up the prospect of being the employee of the months around here. “You know he can’t be denied forever. He will talk to her eventually.”

    “Yes, but we’re trying to postpone that horrible thing from happening for as long as we can. After everything she’s done for us the least we can do is keep her days Tivan-free.”

    Well... at least it was coming from a good place. All that not on my watch fury her colleague was approaching this with.

    Summary

    “So we... do this for the children?” Adam frowns, wondering if it can be really as simple as that. “Because they really like all the reminders of their mortality and monsters and... what was the other thing?”

    “Witches,” Nebula says, sounding like a very tired designated adult who didn’t know how the hell they became dragged into this conversation. “The other thing was witches. Dark magic in general. Because why not, right? As long as we get to have candy while we remind ourselves all of those things exist and we’re only lying to ourselves about being safe from them.”

    “Put like that I really don’t get how Christmas ever became the more popular one. All nice and wholesome and no jumpscares at all...” Rocket utters, shaking his head. “No one as much as mentions creepy things.”

    Summary

    “You’re not going to find anything wrong. There’s never anything wrong. We check every time because it’s... what we do. It’s a ritual. And whenever we do get in the kind of fight that makes Rocket go time to run a full diagnostic, just in case, all we end up learning... relearning... is that I’m the next best thing to unkillable,” Nebula explains, even as she starts attaching ports in her forearm and the side of her head to the complex machinery that took up most of the room. “I’ll only take a minute. Just so I can say I already had a look and nothing is wrong and he...”

    “Can’t call you a liar?” she guesses, getting the picture. “What will you say when he asks why he can’t see for himself?”

    There is no answer. Only soft sounds from several of her machines, making her feeling pretty damn redundant. Standing in the corner as the usually so uncommunicative Guardian does what she must have been doing for years, ever since the worry about structural integrity of her cybernetic systems replaced concerns about things like broken bones and damaged organs.

    Summary

    “Is he... giving those people a tour...?” Nebula says eventually, looking from the man to the crowd of strangers seemingly hanging on his every word with a kind of horrified fascination mirroring her own.

    “It is safe to assume we’ll have more public outbursts in the foreseeable future, since the one member of the team that used to keep an eye on her colleague’s various emotional issues has taken her leave recently. Sadly this means no one is going to be falling in love with their socks anymore – never mind all the other hilarious pranks she happily abused her powers to enact.”

    “We sound unhinged and dangerous when it's put like that,” Adam comments.

    “I think that’s the point,” she says slowly. Wondering, even as the grey-haired man goes on, describing the free-roaming terran animals as infestation and the many children cheerfully playing in the street as feral...

    Summary

    “The second I get back someone will ask me a stupid question...” she says, in a more or less resigned tone.

    “But they’ll be asking you a stupid question in a city that... works,” he points out. “Because you know exactly who to yell at to make things happen...”

    “Yes. We already established I’m great at this,” she replies, a hint of a smile tugging at her lips. “I need to go back, don’t I?”

    “I... don’t know,” he admits. “I want to say nothing’s going to burst into flames just because you’re not there, looking over everyone’s shoulder... but... There are a lot fewer fires when you’re around.”

    Summary

    “Are you really going to pretend you don’t see all the similarities?” Darcy says, so outraged by the dismissal she cuts the sobbing short so she get going on what promises to be another long speech. “You’re living in the suburbs raising kids. And... oh god... you have a dog. No. No no no... There’s nothing I could have done for Sparky but I’m not letting anything happen to you. Not on my watch. Do you hear me, precious slavic puppy? You’re a good girl and I’d rather die than let anything happen to you...”

    The last is delivered to Cosmo who just happened to walk by. Only to get both very confused and hugged within a span of few seconds.

    “I mean...” Darcy says, straightening up to face Nebula again, “there is no dead husband in the picture but... Your sister died, right? But she’s still around. Kinda like Pietro Maximoff,” she finishes in a dramatic tone of someone who just pointed out a thing no one can possibly dispute.

    “These aren’t the suburbs and I’m not cursed to be here. I...”

    “Right. You want to be here. Instead of having all kinds of space adventures,” Darcy cuts her off.

    Summary

    “Let’s hear it then. What are they getting up to on the days when the galaxy doesn’t need guarding?”

    It is a testament to the combined destructive potential of said group of galactic misfits just how long it takes for her to run out of things to say. And Tivan, being who he is, of course responds with a somewhat thoughtful, “Is that why Ogrocorp stock keeps losing value?” before he addresses anything else.

    “It’s also why the Sovereign empire is on shutdown until a new High Priestess can be created. And CounterEarth’s planetary system has been declared a disaster zone. Told you – they’ve been busy.”

    Summary

    Those emotions came in surges big and small, sometimes springing leaks in her walls and her bodily crevices. They'd shatter into salty foams and outlive the needless thoughts that started all the problems in the first place.

    Some would leave her terribly shivering and drenched.

    Some would begrudgingly wander off by themselves with an uncertain promise to return.

    It was unnerving for her to do nothing but watch herself erode.
