Description
Scott Summers hates who he's become. He's made so many mistakes, and he doesn't think he can be forgiven for many of them. But the one thing he thinks he can do right, the one good decision he can make for himself, is to stop the cycle of bad decisions, get out from under the weight of the hole he's dug for himself, and leave. Only... he's never left anything or anyone before. Sure, others have left him, but Scott? Leaving? He doesn't even know where to start. As Scott makes his way toward Alaska, wandering through Canada on the way there, he confronts not only his inner demons put some pretty darn real ones as well. But he'll also meet the Hale family, a group of displaced Southern belles and their family who welcome Scott into their homes and treat him just like they would anyone else. It's an actual, honest-to-Galactus chance to start over, and Scott's going to take it. This fic is part of the 714 Universe and should be read before Volume 3 ("Kree, Shi'ar, and Skrulls, Oh My!") because that volume is when we bring Scott and Annie into the picture. But it's also a great standalone imho. Thanks as always to my cowriter in this universe, CanuckleheadCowgirl.
