Summary: I wrote this little thing a bit after finishing Fallen Hero: Retribution. After all THAT happening at the end I kinda felt like I needed to write something calm and hopeful for my poor Sidestep Margo. In Retribution I'm basically making them absolutely loose the last shred of sanity they had left back from Fallen Hero: Rebirth. So I felt like they deserve a bit of a "what if..." happy ending. As a treat.

So yeah, this is set somewhere in the nebulous future, at an unspecified place, at an unspecified time. Some years after the Fallen Hero series concluded. Enjoy <3

Margo uses them/they pronouns.

Summary: It's been months, but the villain known as Cassandra is finally healed up and ready to get back to business. Evil business. Obviously. Because that's the kind of business villains do. Any day now! Any day now.

So tragic that Hollow Ground had to go and ruin that timeline with a major earthquake that definitely required the attention of every enhanced person with a moral compass leaning upwards of "mass murderer" in the area. And not just because the person wearing the power armor missed his boyfriends.
