Part of the journey is the end. That doesn’t have to be a bad thing.

I didn’t think Endgame was a good movie… but it could’ve been. I liked a lot of things about it, including the framework they had. But I felt it crucially lacked some heart, logic, and justice for many characters’ storylines, all of which I tried to add… while providing a truly happy ending.
This is now my personal canon. Everything taken directly from movie canon is in bold. Some scenes are transcribed exactly the same, some are similar but slightly modified, and huge chunks are purely my own. The farther you read, the less bold / canon pieces there will be!
This is in screenplay format, so you have some options!

To accompany the rewrite is a fantastic companion soundtrack by Jayn.
As a companion “soundtrack” to the Endgame Rewrite, the Soundtrack list contains many iconic pieces of music from the MCU. Tracks such as “One Shot” (Endgame), “Black Tears” (GoTG), and “A Little Nudge” (Ant-Man & The Wasp) are just a small sample of the works contained within the list. Listen-as-you-read or just listen whenever you feel like reliving some of the MCU’s most beautiful musical motifs as a refresher for the rewrite’s story!
Soundtrack: On Spotify | On Apple Music | On Youtube
Disclaimer from Jayn:
For anybody who tries to listen to the soundtrack while they read: The songs are VERY MUCH designed to go with specific scenes, so your-mileage-may-vary depending on how fast you read, different formatting, etc. with regards to whether the songs will always align well. That said, the very last chapter of the fic on AO3 is actually an outline of the soundtrack and each scene it goes with (Spoilers!), so I would recommend giving the whole thing a second read-through with careful consideration of the music, so you can get the desired effect!
The B-Side list contains six (6) iconic songs from Endgame, plus two (2) additional songs taken from scenes in Endgame: Rewritten. Feel free to listen on your Zune instead if you have one!
B-Side: On Spotify | On Apple Music
