faith is a powerful thing. deadly in the wrong hands, as thanos just demonstrated. those who followed him blindly, believing he knew the way forward. his hands grasping blindly at power he could scarcely fathom. she remembers it so clearly. the look in his eyes as he disappeared through the portal, leaving her on the cliff's edge, too weak and wounded to move. he looked broken. gamora... she hadn't been anticipated. and still, faith cajoled him into doing what never needed to be done. she wonders now, if that comforts him. the misguided belief that he did the right thing.

but once he was gone, and once she realized how bad her situation was, the strangest and most remarkable thing happened. as she curled into the fetal position, blood pooling on the plateau, she heard it. her voice, soft, firm, urgent yet steady. marie. take off your scarf, aisling. now. and as soon as she'd dragged the limp length of wool from her neck: press it against the wound. hard, now. you need to apply pressure. and she did; with shaking, weakened hands, she pressed it against the wound, sparks flying in her peripherals as the pain expanded and consumed her. but marie never left. as she struggled to catch her breath, crying against the cool rock, she felt it then. the prickling across her skin, the quaking of the soil, the screams of the universe. it was a decision made instantly. i'll take it. take the pain, the suffering. let me have it. let it be mine, so they don't have to feel it. and marie's vision smiled sadly. a thing of such unfathomable beauty, that it caught her mind as aisling collapsed beneath the agony of half a universe.

now, she's back in new york. two hours ago, she'd been found by several very frightened, very concerned neighbours, cosmic light fading in her eyes. the wound was healed. the impact zone of her landing had caused a small crater in the street. and when she lifted a hand, calling on that impossible power once more, wisps of fiery light gathered in her hands, lacing up her fingers. the people tried to talk to her. but she was already gone. sprinting down the street, gathering speed until she arrived at the clinic, heart pounding, body trembling as she searched through every room until she reached the office, and--

" marie?! marie! oh-- " it hits now. a truck full of cement, right in the chest, knocking the wind right out of her. there she is. her savior. the only light she'll ever chase at the end of it all. the one voice that saves and saves and saves again. is it any wonder it was her aisling saw on that fucking cliff? could there have been any other soul strong enough to reach across the universe? and against all odds, she's alive. she's here! she's right here, and with her is the same air of calm, solid assurance that only truly excellent doctors can provide. that there's hope. a chance. that, despite the devastation, despite how bleak things may seem... they might just be okay.

she's stumbled across the office, and gathered marie into a tight, grateful, agonized, devastated embrace that grants her a moment to hide. to bury her face in her shoulder, and let the tears sink into the white lapels of her coat. " are you hurt? my love, i'm... please tell me you're not wounded? "
