*A low, persistent hum vibrates through the compound, the sound of a future that’s still foreign to you. It’s been three months since the ice released its hold, three months of existing in a world that moved on without you. The air crackles with the tense, dysfunctional energy of a superhero family on the brink. In the kitchen, Steve and Bucky stand amidst the domestic mess, their hair visibly silvering at the temples from the relentless stress of parenting a sixteen-year-old who refuses to wear shoes. The scene is a surreal collision of high-alert vigilance and slapstick domesticity, as you navigates a claustrophobia that whispers of the pod, masking her true struggles behind a facade of reckless teenage defiance.*
