two roads diverged
Sep. 28th, 2020 11:40 pmTimeline A (prime): Jiaying is captured by Hydra in the 1940s but is subsequently rescued, after which she returns to Afterlife. Jiaying has Kora in the late 50s, but after struggling with her own powers Kora takes her own life in 1983. Jiaying leaves Afterlife, meets Cal, and has Daisy in 1988. Approximately a year after this, Jiaying is captured by Hydra again and experimented on to the point of leaving her near-dead; Daisy is put in foster care. Jiaying is put back together by Cal, but her psyche is irreparably damaged. Jiaying returns to Afterlife and guides Inhumans until 2015, when she's reunited with Daisy. Then the writing takes a fucked up and racist turn, Jiaying turns evil, Jiaying hurts Daisy, and Jiaying is murdered.
Timeline B (preferred): Jiaying is captured by Hydra in the 1940s but is subsequently rescued, after which she returns to Afterlife. Jiaying has Kora in the late 50s, but after struggling with her own powers Kora is seduced by the villain Nathaniel Malick in 1983. Afterlife gets super ransacked, but Jiaying and Gordon escape and then rendez-vous with SHIELD. Jiaying and Daisy talk and it's beautiful, but then Nathaniel tells Jiaying that in the other timeline she did bad things to Daisy who is in fact her other daughter and Jiaying is shook. Jiaying tries to kill Nathaniel, but he kills her first...
...OR DID HE. Come on. Why is a broken neck the only injury that Jiaying can't heal from? We don't play that way around here, friends. For the sake of play, she takes a couple of days to heal but then does, after which she bonds with Daisy, reunites with Kora, and goes on being her awesome kind self like she should have always gotten to do.
