[Western Crossover] The Avengers' Parenting Handbook

Question: What would you do if the child you raised wanted to kill you? Bruce: Considering Jo already had a pretty mature body when she came into our hands... Look away! Clint: Oh, she yells that at me every day. So I'd probably tell her to go play somewhere else. Natasha: Are you sure she'd be able to bring herself to hurt me? Tony: That kid who cries her eyes out if I say she broke JARVIS? Is it April Fools' Day already? Thor: Jo can't kill me yet. Steve: If you're trying to drive a wedge between Jo and me, I can tell you you've failed. Bucky: Jo, come have some milk. Jo: I'm going to kill them. #TheChildIRaisedSeemsToWantToKillMe##TheChildIRaisedMightWantToKillMe##TheChildIRaisedMayWantToKillMe# #TheChildIRaised...##...AreYouLookingForATrouble!# This novel goes premium this Thursday (the 25th), and three chapters will be released then.

Regular updates are at 8 p.m. Any other updates are just bug fixes! Why? Because the author has OCD. [I've been accused of ending this story badly. What should I do? Don't worry. First, let's make sure we're clear about what a bad ending means. According to Baidu: it refers to an author planting lots of foreshadowing at the beginning, then lacking the skill to resolve it or being too lazy to do so, and hastily wrapping up the story. Now that we've established that, let me go over the foreshadowing and the questions I answered in my story. The only piece of foreshadowing in this story is Jo's background. Did I fail to explain Jo's background clearly? No, I explained it very clearly. Her full name is Joey Petty, and her father is Gu Weide Petty, who once led a team of American nuclear weapons experts. When Jo was little, he was killed by HYDRA. (Don't tell me you missed it. I explained it very clearly through the Avengers' dialogue around Chapter 31.) When Natasha received orders and arrived, she couldn't find Jo and thought she was dead. But she didn't know that Jo was hiding with HYDRA (who she thought were the good guys at the time) and had been watching her the whole time. So Natasha left. The seeds of hatred born of that misunderstanding took root, and Jo joined HYDRA for human experimentation, gaining powerful abilities that were developed later in life. Pay attention: this is the only piece of foreshadowing. Everything else, including why Natasha is Jo's enemy, who Jo really is, and why she joined HYDRA, has all been explained! After that, the story is simply over. The END. Of course, if you want to argue that the Castor storyline wasn't explained, I can tell you there was no need to explain it. It's obvious that Castor met Jo when she was a child in HYDRA, got along very well with her, and always protected her. Seriously, tell me, what else did you want to see? Him fighting Bucky over her? Besides, Jo never even developed feelings for anyone in my story. Are you really sure you want to see her get whisked away by Castor in the blink of an eye? Also, I checked the subscriptions for the final chapter and the extra story. They were 97 and 4, respectively... 4. That means most people didn't see the actual ending in the extra story, where Bucky finds Jo and asks her to come back with him. Some people might ask, "The leads don't even end up together, so what kind of garbage ending is this?" Oh, sorry, have you heard of an open ending? Do stories and their endings always have to leave the leads happily together? What about stories with bad endings? Did they ever love each other? And besides, this isn't a bad ending at all. Although I could have written one: with the destruction Jo can cause in the final chapter, she could easily have taken herself out too. I'm saying all this not because I'm specifically targeting the person who complained, but because I can honestly say that I did not end the story badly. So when I see readers saying it did, it really breaks my heart. A work that was carefully completed and resolved its foreshadowing gets called a bad ending. What are we supposed to call the classic bad-ending example, The Grave Robbers' Chronicles? (Of course, I'm a fan of that series myself. I'm only talking about this kind of bad ending.) And why didn't you complain about the collaboration story next door? Just because its leads ended up happily together? To be clear, I did not end this story badly. But if you still say I did, there's nothing I can do, because that's your opinion. This is my story, and I know I didn't end it badly.] Theme:
