Summary
An unfortunate run in with a member of the church leaves master and servant separated. With Renfield caught in the clutches of a vampire hunter, Dracula is left no choice but to either cut his losses and move on alone, or track his wayward familiar and those who took him down.
--
"Master-" silence. Renfield’s voice was gone, Dracula blind and deafened from his familiar. Rage boiled in Dracula’s black blood but he did not panic. He was not without a hold yet. He could still feel Renfield struggling, moreso the clinging of the man’s own soul to Dracula than the chains that now hung limp and empty between them. He was still fighting. They could still prevail.Then pain. Burning, searing, purifying pain! Dracula could not hear, but his mind conjured Renfield’s piercing scream as something like fire was pushed into the skin of his familiar’s chest. Small, symmetrical, and wholly insurmountable.
The sign of the cross. Dracula’s presence fled from Renfield without thought or will. Abandoning the last, vestige grips of his hold on the man as the holy symbol was branded into flesh. Renfield was lost.
Dracula was alone.

Summary
Garth straightens from his position bent over the bow and stares at her, a grave weight in his blue eye as it lingers on her cheek. His fingers twitch as if curious to touch and Sparrow is grateful for his restraint. “I do not know the whole of what you suffered,” he says, “but I know parts. The other guards- they spoke to each other often, and without care of who heard.”
His chin dips as he speaks, as if in apology for what he could not help but know. Some part of Sparrow wants to spit at his pity, but another knows that were she in his position, she would have clamored for any word of her sole hope of salvation. She also knows that whatever he heard, it does not change the things she herself has done.
She says, “By any just law the sum of my life would be determined by what I did in that tower, Garth. Regardless of what was done to me in turn.”
Garth frowns. “The Commandant-”
“Is dead,” says Sparrow. Wisps of a low-level inferno slide off her shoulders, dispersing harmlessly into the wind. “I saw to that myself.”
--
Sailing back to Oakfield, Sparrow considers the aftermath of her time in the Spire, and what it means for the path to the future that has been laid out before her.

Summary
With no identity to go missing and no one to look for him, Spider-Man is the perfect candidate for Hydra's next round of experimentation. Peter is almost happy to let himself fade away, if not for a new-born symbiote who simply refuses to let him go. Thankfully, there are a few Avengers and hero-adjacent people out there who aren't willing to let a kid lose himself to Hydra either.

“Deadpool, don’t let your guard down-”The warning came too late. Peter saw the weakness and lunged. The red one lifted his sword half-heartedly, but Peter pinned the hand with webbing and tackled the man to the ground. Venom could feel their face contort with blind fury and struggled to comprehend the lax resignation in the man beneath them.
Peter’s hand planted itself over the red one’s face.
“Spidey?” he said, slightly muffled by Peter’s palm. “Is that really-” he was silenced with a resounding crack!
Venom felt a sting. That was a bad sound. That was death. Peter -Old Peter- would be even farther away now, and it only proved their point more as Peter shifted over the dead body and eyed the other two Avengers warily.
“Oh shit,” said the one with a false arm.
