Summary
Finding Heimdall is a blow. She had sensed a memory of his seiðr near the hole in the ship and had hoped faintly that he got away.
Finding Loki is worse. He is the last body she brings in and it wasn’t like the something she had occasionally seen in his sharp smiles had meant anything, had ever gone anywhere. Still finding his body, shattered and twisted at the neck, is unquestionably the worst.
There is no sign of Thor or the Hulk. Of course that could mean many things, almost none of them good, and Valkyrie hates the bubbling hope fizzing in her fingertips. I’m going to cry now, she thinks, I’ve done enough and now I get to-
A man’s scream echoes from the direction of the medbay.

Summary
Tony drains his glass. Valkyrie risks a brief look at him and is almost transfixed. For the first time since she’s known him his eyes aren’t empty. They are burning.
“How many futures did the Timekeeper see?” Asks Nebula, scepticism lacing every syllable.
“Fourteen million six hundred and five,” says Tony, the number tripping easily over his tongue as if he’s repeated it a hundred times. He probably has, thinks Valkyrie.
“And we win in one,” says Nebula flatly.
As always when she hears those numbers, the weight of potential possibilities presses heavily on Valkyrie’s heart. Every single decision they make spirals out in front of her, reaching back into the past and far out into the future. Every one of them could tip them off course. Their magnitude is overwhelming. Paralysing.
“Yes,” says Tony. “The only way.”
-
Valkyrie and the Asgardian refugees begin to make a life on Earth.

Summary
That is still not the worst of it.
Valkyrie is more familiar with the boundary between life and death than most, an unwanted relic from the old days, and she knows the look of those who are already gone even as their heart still beats. Tony had that look before the battle even started.
That is the worst of it, and Valkyrie feels no shame in preventing Peter from seeing it.
-
The final battle to defeat Thanos takes its toll.
OR
Val and Pete's bad day out.
Sequel to Flight Of The Commodore and Wakanda Night Is This.

Summary
Nebula leans over the control panel, the flashing lights reflecting oddly off her exposed metal. “The gas tank’s ruptured,” she says, completely neutrally. “We shouldn’t have made that last jump.”
“Can we fix it?”
“We don’t have the parts.”
“Can we get the parts?”
Nebula pauses, thinking, and Tony stares at her for a long moment. Then he gets it.
“Anywhere advanced enough to have what we need is gonna know who Thanos is. And who you are,” he says.
Nebula cracks an angry smile. “They’d try and kill me. And then I would kill them.”
