Daughter of the Morning Star

Summary:

Darcy Lewis is only really good at three things. Taking care of careless people, cooking, and putting things in order. She is all right at magic. Decently ok at Monopoly and absolute rubbish at the rest of her life.

When her best friend and employer lands her dream job at Avengers Tower she doesn't expect to be left behind. She's abandoned out of hand without a job or an apartment she can afford.

Super heroes are assholes, the fallen are a lot of fun, and sometimes the bottom is a great place to start.

Notes:

Whew boy, it's been a few years but here I am. This is an AU, of an AU. Double derivative. I'm spicy like that.

Inspired by Pearsforgranite's "Soullessly Soulmated". My response to angst is rage, and whelp, this is what you guys get. Updates will go up roughly once a week or so. I have no idea how long this beast is going to be, you're in for a wild ride.

Trigger warnings for past mentions of child abuse, trauma, and disordered eating.

Chapter 1: In the Beginning a Father had a word with his son.

Chapter Text

Before creation was old, a father took his son to a high mountain.

"They won't understand us, they'll take what the Gods have painted and corrupt it. Let me guide them, father. Let me spare them the heart ache."

The Father looks into the sun as it sets purple, gold and red. His sons words heavy on his heart. "They cannot be whole, unless they learn to love one another. Love another as they love the self."

"I will give them a guide, then. A morning star to light the way." The wings behind the dark haired man crack and agitate in the new air. His mind has been made. The father despairs.

"There is a price for such a gift, my son."

"I'll pay it. A thousand times."
