Summary
He had never believed in heaven, and the premise of hell had always seemed like something that had been invented to scare kids into behaving.
No karma.
No fate.
(Not believing in anything doesn't make nothingness the truth.)
Or: That One Reincarnation Fic in which everyone is born to different parents, given different names, and existing birth order is thrown to the wind by an unforgiving god. Also That One Reincarnation Fic in which remembering means being born into a helpless, mush-brained infant body with the memories of an adult, which is fundamentally kind of horrifying and sometimes has catastrophic results. Secondary summary brought to you by the fact that the first one doesn't tell you jack shit about the content of this piece- which is now complete!

Summary
Uijiro was caught in a loop, not one he could escape no matter what he tried. And tried he did. Perhaps, he'd tried too much. It was only after years spent looking off into the distant mountains, another slayer showed up at his door. He'd seen so many before him and they always brought with them the same thing; a folded piece of paper with a message inside. He had half a mind to turn the strange fellow away, but it was because of a storm that he wasn't able to. Now, he had to host unwelcomed company.
He had lost many precious things, Uijiro knew as much. What agonized him was that he couldn't remember exactly what these things were. Sometimes, he wished he didn't remember anything at all. So, he guessed it wasn't so bad having a chat with such an interestingly bizarre man that came to his home.
"Excuse me, what was your name again?"
"Rengoku Kyojuro, pleased to meet you!"

Summary
“Go on, mutt . Shift. Go ahead. Have your fucking way with me,” he slyly gritted, spattering their face with a mixture of both the blood that had once flowed through their own veins and that bitter liquid they’d taste so much of in their own mouth- Quinn’s blood. Baring their vengeful teeth, it was even more of his blood they’d soon lavish the taste of once they sh…
…Shift.
Realization was accompanied with wide eyes and a faltering expression.
Quinn beamed as time had teemed to stop.
Oh… oh, God.
(Inspired by the song "Rounds" by The Oh Hellos)

Summary
“We have a situation.”
Steve Rogers hates those words. The speaker—Fury—isn’t exactly his favorite person these days, either. Rolling his head shoulder to shoulder to relieve the tension, Steve rises from the comfort of his lazy afternoon sprawl in the common room to join the team around the dining table near the kitchen. A stack of folders, some thicker than phone books, lay fanned across the table’s surface.
“And we don’t have time for months of reconn at this point. This situation is developing faster than our limited intel can track. We’re at a significant disadvantage while we build the Avengers Initiative in the absence of S.H.I.E.L.D’s formerly extensive resources.” Fury crosses his arms. “There are several important connections here that we were exploring before the fall of S.H.I.E.L.D. Fortunately, this is all hard copy. None of it was ever processed digitally, so we have the only source of intel, but we can’t sit on it any longer.”
“Why not?” Barton asks, flipping open the nearest folder, labeled ‘Faith Lehane, Slayer-General’.
