SUMMARY

Marciela Espinosa.

A woman who felt like she never really belonged no matter where she roamed. Los Angeles. Denver. Afterlife. London. And now, New York.

There was a party of her that knew she never belonged anywhere, slinking into the shadows that she created for herself. After visiting Afterlife, there was a part of Marciela that knew that whatever powers she had gotten- whatever they had cursed her with- it was a burden of darkness that she didn't have the strength to carry.

So she ran.

Marciela was never in the same place more than a couple years, hopping around from location to location, staying as long as she could before her "powers" messed everything up for her. She was a woman who wanted to keep a low profile as long as she possibly could, working in a place that she didn't have any other option to work in- a speakeasy in New York.

Everything had been fine for the woman, gaining Koenig's trust in being the bartender for the speakeasy that always seemed to be too busy for someone like her, who preferred staying out of the spotlight.

That spotlight only got worse when Daisy Johnson and her crew of friends spoke the password of the place and burst in with a vigor she hadn't seen before.

Death always followed Daisy Johnson everywhere she went. Love was something foreign to her, taken away with every step she took towards a new relationship. Lincoln Campbell. Grant Ward. Aleja Espinosa.

The last name- well, that was the last time she had found solace in someone was in space- an inhuman 70 years in the future. The woman had saved her and Jemma in the midst of a situation less than ideal, becoming a confidante while trapped inside of Kasius's inhuman hell. Her eyes had been what had drawn Daisy in, her light brown eyes hauntingly beautiful in a place that was anything but so. However, like everyone else she has ever remotely loved in her life, death followed Aleja too.

That was, until 2 years (or 140 years earlier, depending on how you thought about the laws of time), she stumbled upon Marciela Espinosa, who had the same haunting eyes that Aleja had in the year 1931.

And with Marciela, maybe Daisy can get the second chance that she never got with Aleja. Maybe she can do things over.

Get a fresh start.

But all Daisy has to do now is to convince the woman to come with her on a time travel escapade with no indefinite end.

No big deal, right?

AUTHOR'S NOTE

so here we are, my dudes

I absolutely love and adore this tv show too much, and I watch all of the seasons too much and think that daisy johnson deserves gay rights and season seven is like the best season so far so I was like, send it!

yes, I love season seven too much and we aren't even finished with it yet, and yes, I am a whore for daisy johnson, so this is what we're getting!

( also yes I do like daisysousa it's kinda cute but we need some more DAISY ROMANCE CONTENT THAT ISN'T JUST MALES SHE'S BI OKAY)

idk there isn't too much to say because I'm probably gonna have to plan this out as I go because of the new season, but we're halfway in so I figured that it's about time to publish it!

I'm so excited for this story and to see how it turns out considering we haven't seen the ending to season seven yet!

alright I hope you guys stick around for it and I really hope you guys enjoy it!!
