Summary
Faye Shelby knew she could never expect much from her family, least of all her brother who had once been her makeshift father. He was, after all, running the largest gang in Birmingham, expanding the family business, fixing horse races, and so on and so forth.
She could handle herself, that much she knew; even as an unassuming 16-year-old, she had her own sphere of influence in Small Heath.
But she wished that, just once, she could be the kid she’d never gotten to be, or truly get to know her brothers, as they were now as estranged to her as were their business deals.
OR
Thomas Shelby never had the whole ‘parenting’ thing down, even in the time he had taken on the role for his younger siblings Finn and Faye after the death of their mother. And life after the war doesn’t allow much time for such things. He had business to worry about, and enough nightmares for the minds of ten men. But if he’d allow himself the chance to find out, he’d discover that his youngest sister Faye may have the solution to more than one of his problems. Faye knows she does, but convincing her brother is an ordeal in itself.

Summary
She silently crept into the kitchen, praying her father had come home earlier than expected and that it was he who had turned on the light in the room. But no, it wasn't her father standing before the counter, it was---holy shit.
"Emilia Woods? We need to talk."
Emy's jaw almost fell off her fucking skull. Stood there in her kitchen, as if this weren't the most bizarre thing to happen since aliens had invaded New York, was Steve Rodgers and Sam Wilson.
OR
Emilia Woods' life was changed in two ways the day the Avengers saved New York in 2012. For one, her mother had been struck down by a Chitari weapon, right on the street outside Emy's family apartment. And for another, she herself had been struck by a scepter containing one of the singular most powerful objects in the universe-- the mind stone. Amidst the internal strife caused by the Sokovia Accords, Steve Rodgers and team are looking for support, from anywhere they can find it. When Wanda locates an energy source similar to her own in the city, they assume it to be another HYDRA experiment-- not a 17-year-old girl with hardly any handle on her newfound abilities.

Summary
In his many years of taking on jobs for too-little pay, there’s one assignment he’s never worked. The other workers call it the “preschool brigade,” the FEDRA-school kids sent out into the field for what they call “work experience” to get them used to the real world. Really, it’s a behavioral tool, he knows, an example of “better act right or you’ll end up like these poor fuckers when you’re grown.”
He's deliberately never worked on one, uninterested in being put in charge of a kid doing a dangerous job they shouldn’t be. The kids that get sent on the preschool brigade are the ones FEDRA doesn’t necessarily care about getting back, after all, and there are things even adults shouldn’t be doing, not as untrained as most of them are.
And then comes the day one of the FEDRA guards assigned to his work detail that leads over a sullen-looking girl, who kicks rocks the entire way.

Summary
There's no love lost between accountant Beatrice Price and Peaky Blinders leader Tommy Shelby, but when Trixie begins to grow suspicious of Birmingham's newest barkeep, they're forced to take action. Action, in this case, involves maintaining the facade of a romance, a role that becomes surprisingly easy for the former-rivals to play.
