Mean Girls: Epilogue
At Peace In case you were wondering: The Plastics broke up. Steve’s spine healed and his physical therapist taught him to channel all his rage into sports. It was perfect because the jock boys weren’t afraid of him. Bucky used her special talents to do the morning weather announcements. “Hi, this is Bucky Barnes! It’s sixty-eight degrees and…” He shifted in his pants. “There’s a thirty percent chance that it’s already raining!” And Sam found himself a new clique, and a new Queen Bee to serve. Tony went to Northwestern, so I still get to see him on weekends. And me? I had gone from home-schooled jungle freak to shiny Plastic to the most hated person in the world… To actual human being. Stephen sat down with Christine, Mordo and a few other students where they talked about random things. The wedding between Principal Fury and Misses Tao, to the next talent show, to complaining about how Wong and Mordo needed to

You're Grounded His mother started collecting their dinner plates. “Everybody done?” She grabbed his plate before he could answer. “No—mom, I didn’t do it!” “I don’t know what to believe anymore.” “Mom, believe me. I’m your son .” He insisted. His mother huffed and went to grab something under the sink where she found something odd. “… Why are my tribal vases under the sink?” “Huh?” “My tribal vases.” She repeated, pulling them out. “Why were they under the sink?” “I… don’t know…” She gestured to the bigger of the two vases. “ This is the fertility vase of the Ndebele Tribe… Does that mean anything to you?” “… No?” There was no probably, that was definitely the most disappointed look his mother ever gave him. “Who are you?” She walked off and Stephen sighed. “Great. First all my friends hate me, and now my mom hates me…” “Your mother does not hate you.”

The Burn Book Backfire After the amount of cleaning Stephen had to do Sunday in order to ensure that no sign of his party happened when his parents got home, he vowed to never host any sort of gathering ever again. He was certain he was fighting a hangover and there was absolutely nothing in the house that would stop it. The final seal to the deal was pretending to be absolutely fine when his parents came home that evening and how he managed to eat dinner without making a similar mess that landed on Tony’s pants was a miracle. He absolutely dreaded going to school that Monday. Skipping homeroom was a must as he couldn’t bring himself to face Mordo and Christine. He bounced around bathroom to bathroom until it was time to go to his Health class. “At your age.” Coach Odin began. “You’re gonna be having a lot of urges.

A New Queen Bee Sam and Bucky followed me around all afternoon after that. “So, what are we doing this weekend?” Sam asked. “Yeah, what are we doing?” Bucky added. “Oh, I have to go to Madison with my parents.” “What…?” They asked in unison. “We have tickets for this thing.” “What…?” They repeated. Stephen turned back to them. Was I the new Queen Bee? “I can… try to get out of it?” “Yeah.” They both nodded. And so, I told them about Mordo’s art show happening this weekend. “… Because I told my friend, Mordo, I’d go to his art show.” “But we’ve had these tickets for months!” His mother remarked. “You love Ladysmith Black Mambazo.” “But he’s my friend.” Stephen insisted. “And I made him a promise.” “I think Stephen is old enough to spend one night on his own.” His father replied.

I mean, I knew he was sad and all, but how much time did he need? Steve had moved on. Stories of how he and Thor were happily hooking up together were all over the school. But overall, the plan was going pretty well. Tony had dumped Steve and he was unknowingly eating five-thousand-plus calories a day. But with one goal officially off the list and another on the way, it was now time to focus on the Army of Skanks. Christine had a plan that involved rigging the Spring Fling Court Nominations.

Just STAB Casar! In History, Sam had to read his report on Julius Caesar out loud. It didn’t go the way the other students had expected it to go. “Why should Caesar get to stomp around like a giant.” He began. “While the rest of us try not to get squashed under his big feet? What’s so great about Caesar anyways? Brutus is just as cute as Caesar. Brutus is just as smart as Caesar! People totally like Brutus just as much as they like Caesar!” He was becoming border line hysterical at this point. “And when did it become okay for one person to be the boss of everybody, huh? Because that’s not what Rome is about! We should totally just STAB CAESAR!” Sam Wilson had cracked. When the teacher noticed that Sam was incredibly upset about his report, Stephen offered to take him to the boy’s bathroom to calm down. Sam was just barely holding it in and thankfully no one was in there with them. It gave Sam just enough reprieve to let loose

Jingle Bell Rock Pretending like nothing was wrong turned out to be surprisingly easy. “Steve wanted me to tell you that he was trying to hook you up with Tony, but he was just interested in getting him back.” Sam explained that following Monday. “And that’s not Steve’s fault.” “No, I know.” Stephen said. Oh, how he wanted to just run and cry in the boy’s bathroom. “So, you’re not mad at Steve?” “God no!” Stephen lied with a smile. “Oh, okay, good.” Sam said. “Because Steve wanted me to give you this.” Sam leaned forward and wrapped his arms around him. Stephen returned the hug hesitantly, and for a moment, he wasn’t sure how he should feel about that. Lunch was going to be the biggest hurdle because Tony was sitting next to Steve while Bucky and Sam were on the opposite side of the table.

It's Halloween... Isn't it? Stephen honestly thought the first day with the plastics was over when he got home and changed out of the pink shirt and into comfortable sweats. He walked past the phone in the kitchen just as it rang, so he answered it. “Hello?” “I know your secret.” Steve practically sang into the phone. He was pretty sure his heart stopped beating entirely. Oh god, busted. Just start apologizing and crying. No—play it cool. “Secret?” He asked. “What are you saying about?” “Sam told me that you like Tony Stark. I mean, I don’t care.” He replied. “Do whatever you want, but I’d figured I should warn you about Tony.” “Okay?” “All he cares about is school, his mom and his friends.” “Is… That bad?” Steve ignored the question. “But if you like him, whatever.

Our Little Secret Just before homeroom, Christine and Mordo pulled him, once again, into the boy’s bathroom. There, Christine pulled out a pink shirt and Mordo was telling him to take off the shirt he was wearing. Stephen would have been a little uncomfortable with doing it except he wore a gray tank-top underneath his shirt and Christine was delighted with how it matched the shirt. Stephen was rather surprised that the shirt fit him. “… I thought this would be a girl’s shirt?” “Since when do clothes have gender?” Christine remarked. “It was on sale for a dollar and I couldn’t resist!” He didn’t dwell on that any further than what was necessary. The shirt fit, it was pink, that was all he needed to worry about until lunch. Having lunch with the Plastics was like leaving the actual world and entering “Teen World”.

He will admit to being nervous as he sits down. The dark and silence of the room feels almost oppressive as he comes over, and Steve doesn’t really move as he settles on the other end of the couch. The man continues to sit with his knees tucked up to his chest, his eyes focused somewhere ahead in the dark middle-distance. Alright, step one, check, he thinks as he eases back into the couch. Step two, figure out what to do next. That is a little harder to do, and he sits in silence for a while, waiting as his heart begins to calm down and he thinks over his options. This is not exactly the first time he and Steve have dealt with ‘heavy’ stuff before. He can remember finding the man once in the middle of a flashback during a fireworks display, and another time, JARVIS had taken it upon himself to bring Steve down to his lab after the man had returned from learning about Bucky’s survival and treatment under Hydra. Beyond that, the two of them have had plenty of tough conversations, be

“Play it again,” Thor says roughly as the recording finishes, his voice strained and his face tight. “Play— play it again. JARVIS complies, and they all sit in stunned silence as they once again listen to the transmission. Thor and Valkyrie sit in shock as they hear the words play out. “They’re still alive,” Thor murmurs, his eyes bright with tears and his breath shaky. “They— some of the pods made it out. Some of them survived.” Tony sits and flicks his eyes between Thor, Valkyrie, and Steve, trying to take in the implications of the recording. He remembers now that Valkyrie had mentioned escape pods when she had first arrived on Earth (but that feels like feels like ages ago now, and not just under three months, like it actually is.) At the time, Valkyrie had seemed uncertain as to whether any of the pods had survived—which he supposes is understandable, considering who had been attacking them—but thanks to this transmission, it is now blindingly obvious that some of them had

Heavy conversations with Pepper aside, it is still difficult trying to cope with all the problems of the planet right now. But that simply means that when the wins come, they are celebrated more than ever. It is about a week after his heart-to-heart with his fiancée, and he is busy in his lab. Schematics sit in front of him as he works on trying to develop arc reactor designs that accommodate for the limited resources they have to work with. It is an interesting challenge, and something he definitely has to figure out if they are going to be able to get arc reactors to more remote places, but he soon finds himself interrupted by JARVIS. The AI speaks up as an icon flashes on his screen. “Sir,” he says, as he glances over in curiosity. “The search you put in for Miss Lang’s grandmother has come up with a result.” He blinks, and his hands still over his own project, his mouth falling open as he stares at JARVIS’s display. “A result?” he repeats, because to be honest, he hadn't really

True to his word, he does program JARVIS to keep up a search for Cassie’s grandmother…and for Scott. With the slow recovery of communication lines and with JARVIS’ tracking skills he has hope that they might at least be able to find the grandmother, and for Scott… Well, he can at least hope that Cassie might be able to find some closure, knowing that if JARVIS can’t find him, then he really must be gone, and she doesn’t have to live waiting for him forever. To be honest, Cassie is coping with this all a lot better than he had first feared. Judith could probably list off for him a diagnosis of how her young age, mixed with the absolute mass trauma of the entire planet had probably combined into a pseudo-acceptance of the new normal of her life. Cassie had been through a lot—and no doubt it will continue to affect her for the rest of her life—but she had also come to a relatively stable place now, with people she knows and who care about her. She is finally in a place where she can

A bright light admits from his chassis, his frame opening to reveal what appears to be the Matrix of Leadership. He squints at the image, bringing the pad closer to his face as he examines it. The light from the Matrix whites out most of the rest of the picture, and the mech is wearing a facemask that covers the bottom half of his face, but he could swear… He shakes his helm and continues on with the article, trying to make helms or tailpipes of what is happening.

Dating is just as complicated in the twenty-first century as it had been in the last one. If anything, it is even more complicated because while Steve may have been confused and cautious about the rules and norms before, at least he had known what they were. Now the world has had seventy years of cultural shifts and changing social norms, and the prospect of trying to figure out how to date in the middle of that feels nearly impossible. Not that he really wants to date though. That hasn’t changed. Out of everything, going into the ice hadn't changed that. It had changed pretty much everything else though. It is difficult, getting used to everyone he knows being dead, and figuring out new technology, and sifting through the piles and piles of files and paperwork that SHIELD gives him to get him up to speed.

He had known that corruption ate away at the upper ranks of Cybertron, but he had never had such concrete evidence of it. He is beginning to regret his decision to go into politics, rather than trying to change things through other means. Back when he had first been gathering a following and had worked his way out of the gladiator pits, he had allowed himself to be convinced that working through conventional means would get his voice heard better than more violent methods… But now he isn’t so sure. It had been vorns since he had first begun to work towards his goal of social change, and he doesn’t have much to show for it.

Cassie hadn't exactly been lost, but like plenty of other children after the Dusting, she had been left on her own. Apparently, she had been in her own house when she had lost her mother and stepfather, and then of course, Scott is gone too. She probably would have been in more trouble if the teenage girl next-door hadn't taken her in during the immediate chaotic aftermath of the Dusting. The girl had lost her parents too, but she was old enough and level-headed enough to keep the two of them alive for a while. Eventually though, she had taken Cassie to an emergency relief shelter when they had begun to run out of food, and that is where they had stayed for the last few weeks, sitting on a waiting list as volunteers slowly tried to attend to everyone’s needs. Eventually their case had been looked at, and San Francisco’s version of Clint’s orphan organisation had begun trying to find family to place them with and get them out of the shelter.

TW: non-con/dub-con kissing, internalized ace-phobia. Dating is… complicated. At least, it feels that way for Steve anyways. And that isn’t just because talking to dames is difficult, or because he isn’t really sure if girls even like him. It doesn’t really have a lot to do with his size, or his constant illnesses, or the fact that more often than not he is more worried about making rent, than taking a girl out (although those all probably have something to do with it.) It is just… he just doesn’t seem to feel it the same way others seem to. For the most part, he is content with that. Dating is complicated, and messy, and to be honest, it seems like a hassle to him. In school, when the boys and girls had gotten old enough to start noticing each other, and the halls and the corners of classrooms had been full of whispers about who had stepped out with whom, he couldn’t help feeling bemused by it all.

The failure to retrieve the stones from Thanos is a major blow to morale. He hadn't realised it until now, but he had subconsciously been relying on the idea that they would be able to fix all of this. He had internally been living with the idea that he really didn’t have to deal with everything that had happened— he didn’t have to deal with all the death, and loss, and pain, because they could make it go away. But… they can’t. He can see it effecting the others, he can feel it seeping into the very air of the compound. All of them, in one way or another had been holding out for this last mission… and now they have nothing to hold on to anymore. The magnitude of that despair is almost paralyzing, and he finds himself tongue-tide and numb the next morning as he makes his way into the common area for breakfast. Pepper comes in with him, and Natasha, Clint, and Rhodey are already there, the group quiet and somber as they sit dejectedly over their food. Tony flicks his eyes over them
