Hello, folks! Welcome to "The Scientist!" I do hope you enjoy what you read here and plan to stay for the whole ride. If not, that's fine too.
I post this as well on AO3 under the same name because I have no imagination.
Here, the time is set after Thor: Ragnarok and before the events of Avengers: Infinity War. Avengers: Endgame will not be touched on.
Disclaimer: I do touch on some triggering content in this story (racism, homophobia, references to self-harm), so tread lightly if you must. These topics are not in every chapter; only a select few, but I feel it is my duty to tell you ahead of time. I speak about it as someone who's gone through it and I am pretty much putting all my feelings down on a page and letting someone else read it. I do my best not to sound ignorant as these subjects are close to my heart and contain a lot of emotion. My intention is not to write a defeating story but rather an empowering one.
