    Summary

    When legendary rock band The 107 stunned the world by announcing a reunion tour after a fifteen-year silence—and revealed the fiery up-and-coming punk outfit SHIELD as their opening act—the music scene lit up like a match to gasoline.

    For Bucky Barnes, The 107’s infamous frontman and a recently sober icon of chaos and charisma, it was more than a comeback. It was a shot at redemption, a chance to rewrite the ending of a story he’d tried for years to forget—and to lose himself, once more, in the electric roar of a crowd that still remembered his name.

    For Steve Rogers, SHIELD’s 24-year-old frontman with raw talent and big dreams, it was everything. A backstage pass to the legends who shaped his sound, a chance to prove himself on the biggest stage of his life—and maybe, just maybe, find something real in a world that kept letting him down.

    Neither of them could have predicted how it would end. Or how it would begin.

    Because some tours don’t just make headlines.
    They change lives.

    Summary

    He gets a good look at him now–the blonde of his hair and the way it’s cut short and well-kempt. The back is even and straight, like he’s got a woman himself to maintain it. His face, however, bears a flattering stubble lining the concave of his cheeks and bones. His mouth is surrounded by small hairs, his nose strong, and most of all, his eyes. They’re electric blue, certainly not from around here. He looks like one of those German settlers who’d come and ransacked his own home. Still, he holds that impenetrable gaze, knowing his own blue to be much less remarkable. The hand remains stubbornly outstretched, his lips forming a soft, pink line. His eyes flicker downward to notice them, and upward back at the newly, truly, pissed off looking baby blues. He can’t help smiling.

    or; steve and bucky are cowboys in the wild west, tensions are high, and many cigarettes are shared amidst strong feelings

    Summary

    The world was still scarred by one of the deadliest wars. Glimmers of rehabilitation were beginning to surface right before society plunged back into the same, repetitive cycle. Times grew harder. The world struggled.

    It took bravery to recover. It took courage to face it again.

    Unacknowledged heroes held together the world before it collapsed. It happened once before – it’s possible to do it again.

    New demands require new solutions. They have to live up to that promise.

    Summary

    During a reunion party hosted by Howard Stark, the Howling Commandos, Peggy Carter, and George and Winifred Barnes witness a great working of science and fate.

    It was then that a body flew through the opening of the tear, thudding painfully some feet away from where it had come through on the wooden floor on the room.

    Whipping her gun arm up, Peggy trained her sights on the—man, she identified—on the ground. Breathing heavily, he quickly leapt to his feet and whirled around, a knife suddenly appearing in his grip.

    While his clothing was odd and unfamiliar, his face was known to her.

    "Sergeant Barnes?" Came a gasp from behind her from Corporal Dugan.

    Summary

    Steve always had a high tolerance to pain. He had several chronic illnesses, and he got beat up a lot, so he’s good at dealing with being hurt. And then he got the Super Soldier Serum, and not only did all his illnesses go away, but he now also has an even higher pain tolerance due to the serum magnifying things. So, he’s able to fight in a war without any risk to himself. But, there is something that he always thinks about whenever he and his team go on a mission, the fact that he is the only one who has the serum. So, he makes sure nobody else gets hurt. He should be able to protect everyone. But, sometimes things just happen and you can’t do anything about it. Luckily, people are there to talk to.

    Summary

    Steve realizes that homosexuality isn't a disease, or a curable one at least, after it turns out he's still gay as hell after getting the serum. He goes to Europe about it. Good for him.

    Summary

    It's a long time coming. Being back here, staring down into a face I'd completely forgotten, yet knew. Traumatic brain injury is like that, I suppose. I wonder if I'm ready for this. If I'm doing the right thing, knowing the absolute shit-show that is my life. I sort of hate Sam for finding the file, and Peggy for letting it happen in the first place. Mostly, I hate myself. 83 years I've left it waiting. Left her, waiting.

    The question is, do I man-up and press that button, knowing everything is going to change, or do I leave the past, in the past?

    Summary

    There's a lot of expectation attached to Steve Rogers' name. It's taken him years to prove his own worth - that he's made it so far in the USNA on his own merit and not just because of his father. He's close though - there are only a few more months until he graduates and gets to stand on his own two feet. It's taken a lot of effort to get there, and a lot of sacrifices.

    Bucky's beyond the point of expectation. When your father and grandfather have both been President - and your mother nurses political ambitions of her own - brilliance is a foregone conclusion. He's just counting down the final months of his confinement to the glass cage of the White House and he's determined to put that whole world behind him.

    But as the days standing between them and their dreams dwindle, Steve comes to realize he might have made one sacrifice too many, and Bucky learns that his freedom comes at a cost he's never going to be able to pay.

    Summary

    "You Have Me, Always
    When all the noise around us has passed.
    When the brilliance of the stars grew fainter.
    When everyone doesn't know - we still exist.
    Remember, in this little corner of the world, you'll always have me.
    You are my love and my home."

    For Bucky Barnes, the memories of his lost love are a bittersweet echo of a past life. Believing her to have perished, he has made peace with his pain and tries to live a quiet life.

    Bucky has spent lifetimes carrying the ghost of a woman he couldn’t remember—sharp-eyed, stubborn, and lost to time. The sketches in his notebook were all he had left of her: Gretchen Zeller, the brilliant battlefield surgeon who vanished in 1960. Presumed dead. Buried with the rest of his past.

    Now a reluctant congressman in 2027, Bucky has made peace with silence—until a gala fundraiser throws him into collision with a woman who shouldn’t exist.

    Gretchen is alive.

    From the shadows of Hydra to the light of newfound hope, their love endures, defying the odds and rewriting destiny.

    Summary

    Bucky wanders the hall outside, dazed, and finds himself in a supply closet three doors down. He sits on a box of spare boots and tries to process the fact that the United States Army has just, by official fiat, authorized him to fuck Steve Rogers.

    No. Not fuck. "Provide specialized support." He wonders if there'll be paperwork. Two copies for the S.S.R. and one for the Brits.

    They can put that on his gravestone: James Buchanan Barnes, Here Lies A Good Soldier Who Took More Than One For The Team.

    The Stork Club: 8:00 

    Steve Rogers was glad to have finally made it to his dinner reservation with his girl. Granted, he was 5 years and 6 months late, but he was still glad nonetheless.

    What if they did find Steve in the ice only 5 years later?

    Summary

    Death is not the worst thing that can happen to a man.

    To break him, you must first shatter his body—again and again and again. Then, you take his mind, his will, his name. You strip him down to something unrecognisable, reshape him into something he was never meant to be. Survival is its own kind of cruelty, and some wounds don’t heal. Some don’t even scar.

    Because war doesn’t just take—it remakes. It chews men up and spits them out as something else: hollowed out, stitched haphazardly, and left to stumble forward. No side is ever truly victorious, not when the battlefield becomes a graveyard, and the survivors are left carrying its ghosts. No matter who wins, the cost is always the same: death. the weight of what can never be undone.

    All wars end the same.

    -
    This is the story of Bucky Barnes, Steve Rogers, and the Howling Commandos. The war they fought. The men they lost. The scars they carried. The love that blossoms, even in the darkest of places, far behind enemy lines.

    Before the ice. Before the Winter Soldier.

    Before it all got worse .

    Summary

    She was beautiful, he knew that now. But she was also wrong, because there was no way he could ever forget the curve of her smile or the exact colour of her eyes. Not now, not ever, not in another lifetime, not even if his mind was whipped off.

    He was sure of that, it was just impossible.

    Summary

    James Buchanan "Bucky" Barnes was Captain America's best friend his story was painted all over the measeum walls side by side with the Howling Comandos. He was then recorded in the locked files of the HYDRA vaults. But there is more to his story, much more in between the lines of his history and eventual pardon. So much lost time, so much missing information, so much story still left to tell.
    Please note that this fic is only the first of three potential future parts. This will be considered the 40s segment

    Personal note: This fic is very whumpy and an excuse for me to beat the shit out of my favourite character, because what else do you do with your favourite character than inflict unimaginable pain on them :) Please mind the tags and please excuse the fact that this fic is going to take me YEARS to complete.

    (Edit: I changed some of the tags recently since I'm not sure if certain aspects common place with Bucky's story and his time as the Winter Soldier will actually be in this fic since it's going to be split up into several parts)

    Summary

    Before the start of the war, Charlotte Lehmann had believed it could not get any worse than the Anschluss.

    Watching her beloved country submit to the Reich was a betrayal too deep for words. But things can always get worse. The night can always get darker. By 1943, that darkness had come to plunge Europe into war...

    ...and rumours of a girl who sees fleeting glimpses of moments not yet come, or visions of faces she had never met but would later see, reach the ears of HYDRA, the Nazi deep science division.

    Branded as traitors, 'Charlie' is seized by the Gestapo and torn from her family, remanded to the HYDRA work camp at Kreischberg. There, she's subjected to brutal experimentation at the hands of Dr. Arnim Zola, as he tries in vain to enhance her natural gifts.

    But when the captured 107th arrives, one amongst them stands out. Sergeant James Buchanan Barnes, with defiance still burning behind his eyes, is chosen for the same brutal experiments that Charlie has already been enduring for months. Bound now by common cause, they must find a reason to survive the darkness together—even as it threatens to swallow them both whole.
