Warnings: Language, Canon-typical violence Pairings: Chex Rating: T Synopsis: [Hero Time Prequel] Her name is Tex and she’s got a righteous fury to burn into her crappy neighborhood, whether the city wants her or not.

A/N: We’re so close to the final stretch, and also to learning the fates of many of our Freelancer buddies, which a lot of you have been correctly presuming from knowledge of Hero Time just what a ride that’s about to be. Hope everyone’s ready! And sincerely, I’m sorry for missing the Monday update schedule again – I drove for ten hours to get back to Alabama yesterday and just didn’t quite have enough energy to finish off the chapter by last night. I hope it’s worth the wait!

God Loves, Freelancer Kills
A whole lot of information – and a stupid amount of weight – had been shoved onto her shoulders in a very short amount of time. And while Tex didn’t really appreciate those things, she had very little intention of letting any responsibility down.
She wouldn’t be proving just how much she was the best if she didn’t show everyone how to carry the weight of the world, after all.
So despite the onslaught going on around her, Tex cupped her hands, stood at the highest mound of destruction she could find, and yelled at the top of her lungs.
“Carolina! Carolina! Where the fuck are you?”
This is my Favorite Freelancer Costume, Cause it Has all these Clocked themed stuff on it and yet no EVER picks up he has Time Powers.

A/N: I apologize for being a day late with this one, guys! I’m both on vacation this week and also kind of anxious about this chapter because it answers a whole lot of stuff and sets us up for the final five chapters, which are an explosive romp. I hope you guys all enjoy!

Days of Future Past
The air was thick and choking, and despite herself Tex was having a hard time adjusting her eyes. There was something hot and wrong about the world around her.
And she was far from the community college cafeteria, that much was for sure.
In the daze, she had almost forgotten her grip on Carolina’s wrist – or even Carolina at all – until the other superhero slipped from her hold.
“What the fuck just happened?” Tex demanded, turning her full attention on the speedster. “Where did you take me?”

Anonymous asked:
Texas time AU where Church stays a villain because it's the easiest way to get Tex's attention. He sets up some huge plot to show off, somehow traps the hero PF sent through sheer luck then in the middle of his rant on how much Project Freelancer sucks he turns around and goes "Wait who the fuck are you? Where's Texas?" and the Freelancer has to listen to Church bitch about how he set up this great deathtrap he can't use because PF can't even bother to send the right hero
He scratched at the wig, his scalp itching with no contentment in sight. It was all Church could do to keep from plainly ripping it off at once and exposing more of his identity than he already was.
When he heard the grunting and struggling continuing, Church bothered to look the way of the dangling superhero in need. He scowled at South – they never got along back in the academy days.
There was a small part of him still satisfied that she couldn’t outwit one of his traps.
okay so the design process for these costumes when like this “terrible freelancer costumes” is really code the Dakota Twins costumes, They had to match, And north was going to get the shitty end of the stick.
I needed to do this trashy adorableness Quick before church messes things up again.

A/N: So by my standards this chapter is LATE and I can’t apologize enough for that, real sorry guys. I don’t have much of a defense besides the fact that things just got a little more hectic than called for in my regular life but I’m back! And I hope to not get so behind on updates again!

The World’s Finest
“Snazzy. Back in black, I see!”
Tex looked at the mirror a little longer, her half cocked smirk looking good with the black and yellow ensemble on her person. The gloves were a nice touch, even if the boots would stand as her favorite accessory regardless. She hated to hand anything to Church, but he damn sure seemed to know how to send design specs for her style.
When she was fully finished with soaking in her appearance, Tex finally turned enough to see York’s head and shoulders sticking through the wall. His visor might have been on but she could tell he was assessing her, eyes probably more focused than his easy smile would betray.
i was really torn here i was so tempted to the last bit of this chapter over showing CT costume...but she got shafted last chapter

A/N: Oh man, I almost missed my self-imposed Monday deadline for these chapters! Which I have to blame entirely on finally getting around to watching this amazing superhero anime, My Hero Academia, this weekend to celebrate having Memorial Day off. I do not regret it one bit, though, because as you guys probably know by now, I have a thing for superheroes ; ) Hope the semi-late chapter is still enjoyable!

Dark Victory
With Tex’s particular powers it was entirely unnecessary to keep up appearances by working out. Like her father before her, her strength never proved to increase with the tone of her muscles or decrease with atrophy. Her finesse and control – things she had long ago mastered – were the only factors that seemed malleable.
Still, working out seemed to be the only thing that made her blood pump and kept her focus.
Or, rather, it also helped her completely ignore things. Tune out annoying voices as it were.
“You’re honestly not going to turn on the webcam,” Church scoffed from the computer, his face scrunching up on the monitor. “This is unbelievable! I haven’t gotten to see you in, what, two weeks and you can’t turn on the webcam?”
“Nope,” Tex grunted in the midst of another chin up on the bar over her Freelancer bunker bed.
Ct better show up again cause there was no way Im was sharing the Glory of this costume with a good costume.

A/N: I took a bit of a break from writing last week with my birthday and a short vacation from work to visit family and friends, but I was glad to get back in the swing of things starting with Texas Time because oh man do few things make you miss writing quite like this superhero AU which is just sinfully fun to write.

Gods and Mortals
“Standard testing is stupid.”
Tex kept her arms crossed, staring ahead to the dome like building emblazoned with more gaudy architecture and nonsense advertisements than could possibly be excusable. She wondered how many Blood Gulch potholes could have been filled with the budget put into one of the single arches for the Freelancer home base. And then wondered how many more so-called hero taxes she would have to take to get a decent new costume.
“Are there any smaller mole hills you’d like to die on, Alpha?” she asked, sliding a glance Church’s way and taking note of how the new Alpha-bot bobbed in the air same as all the old ones. No matter how much Church insisted on its greater efficiency in said bobbing.
God i really really wanted to the fight bit, but costumes always have to come frist

A/N: Whoooooo This is coming from my first vacation in six months! So I apologize for the tardiness. I’m hoping I make up for it in plot development and hilarity ; )

The Court of Freelancer
Nothing had made Tex feel like more of a nerd in her entire life than the night she set the tattered, ripped, gross-covered remains of her epic homemade costume into a fire and filled her tote bag with books instead.
Handbooks straight from York to be accurate.
The Freelancer had seemed rather confident that Tex could, obeying the letter of the law strictly, become a Freelancer within the next six months given her raw talent and potential as a superhero. When she learned that the Carolina character had managed it in three months, Tex had all the inspiration she needed to get it done in one.
Look I remembered Church’s face damage! I am not ashamed to admit Caboose’s Costume is a merge of My favorite legion costume’s.. and look we have a Face for Caboose for the first time.
when I have dumb idea’s people, your not supposed to encourage them Now we have another alternate universe to add to the ever growing list of Hero time AU’s universe :63 where Davida Washington comes from..
I can see A second Wash being nothing but headache for every one but junior

A/N: I meant to get this out yesterday so I apologize a bit for that! I had a bit of a brain fart (probably too much Angst Warring, which let’s be real, the Hero Time AU canon is somewhat in opposition to because it’s full on fun and shenanigans). But I hope you enjoy a bit of an exposition chapter. Mostly because exposition is an excuse to make everyone yell at each other for various things when it comes to these characters lol

Woman of Steel
The skin of the wound was puckered, angry, and red when she looked at it in the morning.
Tex had to all but sit on the small apartment’s sink in order to get a good look in the mirror, examining beneath Alpha’s – Church’s – hastily applied dressings. It was hard to imagine just what the infamous Crunchbite’s jaws might’ve done to a regular person’s muscly shoulder had they switched places with Tex the night before.
For Tex, an injury usually disappeared after a good night’s sleep. And damn had she made sure she had gotten that the night before.
Work thing came up so i didn't have time to make this crazy detailed as i wanted. the only thing i regret about hero time is that I didn't know Church was this much of a dweeb, other wise I would have littered him in Disney swag

A/N: A little ahead of schedule, but I think you guys won’t mind that too much! Once again I’m just so happy and grateful for all of you guys who are sticking with me through this story! I was really worried that following Hero Time with a prequel rather than the direct sequel wouldn’t please most people even if it’ll be apparent how necessary the move was later, but it’s just so overwhelming and awesome to be surprised by the turn out so far. And gosh do I just love writing Alpha Church and Tex so much, so this has been an utter delight for me personally. They were so bad for stealing the show in the original story and letting them loose on their own tale has been so much fun.
Of course, as you’ll all probably notice, this chapter carries some similarities to canon (at least as revealed in the guide book) that I hope I did an original enough spin on that it’s still enjoyable for everyone!

What’s So Funny About the Blood Gulch Way?
The gym was a real crap shoot. The kind of thing kept alive more out of novelty than any sort of relevance to the community, but Tex found herself respecting it more than anything else on her return to Blood Gulch.
It wasn’t out of any obligation to her old man, forget that noise – but it was something.
I made myself wait to read this chapter just so i wouldn't be mad i couldn’t draw anything for it while i was away..

A/N: So by popular demand we are here! The prequel to Hero Time and a righteous romp all about Tex’s early adventures. I have actually been looking forward to this and the to-come sequel of Hero Time since before I was even done with the first story. Everyone’s excitement and enthusiasm about this universe and this take on our favorite characters has really fueled me beyond compare and I’m SO excited to join another adventure with all you guys.
I hope you all enjoy!
Special thanks to @ashleystlawrence for always being so wonderful to bounce ideas around with me on this project and so many more! Also love out to every single one of you who have shown such tremendous support for the series <3 This is for you
Tex: Year One
She returned to Blood Gulch expecting a great, many things. But the expectation the city delivered on more than any other was that the more things changed, the more they really, truly stayed the same.
Muggings were one of those things. Muggins never really changed, and in an armpit of a borough like Blood Gulch they could be seen as common and expected.
Which was exactly what she had been banking on.
Get used to the Yellow roses people, I’m going to work them in Every chance i get
