Summary
“But even as he thinks it, he decides it’s a bad idea. Whenever he gives himself time to think, he thinks of stupid things like Loki, Phil Coulson, Brock Rumlow. And whenever Clint thinks of any of these things, he starts to spiral.”What if Captain America and the Winter Soldier had ended differently? What if Hydra had won instead? Let’s just say, things aren’t looking good.
Note
Welcome to the first chapter of my new fic. Please read the tags, there will be some dark stuff, especially the further we progress. Tags may change, please let me know if you think I’ve missed any.Note: Some elements of this fic were loosely inspired by the fics ‘In the wake of your sunrise’ by Squadrickchestopher as well as ‘The one where Clint is Tony’s weakness’ by JinxQuickfoot.Fun facts:-The title of this fic is from Taylor Swift’s song ‘Anti-Hero’ .-While researching for this fic I discovered that Washington and Washington DC are two different places.Ps: no hate to Californians, I’ve never been there lol, Clint’s commentary of it is purely based on stereotypes I’ve heard in media.PPs: I do not own any of the characters in this fic. I included parts of the winter soldier movie in the first chapter, but I glossed over them slightly because it is assumed that if you’re reading this, you already know how that movie goes.Without further ado, please enjoy!
