Naomi Matayoshi was never a normal girl, she'd spent the early years of her life in the Red Room and a part of her adolescence moving around the foster care system. After so long you'd think she'd have gotten used to the feeling of instability but clearly not as she struggles with the constant guilt of what she's done.
Remember one thing as you read Naomi's story though...
Not everyone gets their happy ending.

The Day That I Die

~☆ANGEL☆~ thunderbolts/new Avengers X Oc
Lilith Martinez was a normal teen girl. By that I mean she committed suicide aged 19. After being brought back to life, being given powers, and meeting the thunderbolts, she began a new life as Angel. thunderbolts/new avengers x oc, specifically Bob x oc (even though the first 2 chapters make it seem like it's gonna be bucky x oc) hope you enjoy <3 Currently I'm posting every Thursday or Friday, but it's not strict and please don't expect one per week xx Tw mentions of suicide, mental health, depression, eating disorder, trauma, rape, and a lot of stuff like that. If that's not your kinda thing I don't recommend reading. (edited) also not really tw but stuff like kissing and a lot (I mean a lot) of swearing and sexual jokes, and possibly maybe sex if we get there lmao (edit we lwk almost get there), and there's one line of female masturbation just so you know. I have since stopped doing individual trigger warnings in chapters, so if you don't like any of the things above then I'd just reccomend maybe not reading or reading up to where I do individual tws at the start of chapters and then mayvbe not continuing. I don't own anything other than my ocs and the story line (ppl always say this in fanfic descriptions so I feel like I should lol)

Names She Never Knew
Natasha Romanoff has been described as many things: a killer, cold, heartless, emotionally unavailable. And she is. But she was not always like that. She has a daughter, or had one. One that died during birth. Or at least that's what she was told. Because of that, she became all of those things. But her world is turned upside down when she finds out that not only is her daughter alive, but she grew up in the Red Room. She will do anything to have her daughter back with her. Will she find her daughter? Will her daughter know who she is and accept her? What will her daughter be like having grown up in the place that teaches their students to hate people like Natasha? "She was the secret her mother lost, and the truth she must now become." Some ages will be altered to fit the storyline better. The writing will get better as the story progresses, I promise! Potential triggers: -Fighting/violence -trauma -eating disorder -self-harm
The Weight We Carry ~ Bucky x OC story
Taken from their childhood, three sisters-Natasha, Emilia and Yelena, were put in the Red Room and were brutally trained to become elite assassins and spies. Their entire identities were stripped away and rebuilt to make them perfect weapons, loyal only to the Red Room's orders. Sent to infiltrate the avengers compound, Emilia has only one goal. Bring the Winter Soldier back. As awful as her experience in the Red Room was, she had to stay loyal to it. If she got out of line, Yelena would be the one to bear the consequences. Haunted by the memories and guilt, she never expected to find understanding - let alone something more - in the eyes of a man built by war. !TW! (Violence, abuse, torture, assault, manipulation, family issues.) Started- 21.04.2025 Finished- ongoing - Most characters are owned by marvel :)
