    Summary

    The Avengers embark on a dangerous mission that takes a devastating turn—Steve Rogers is killed in action. His body is never recovered, leaving his team to mourn and move on, though some wounds never truly heal. No one feels the loss more than Bucky Barnes, who not only lost his best friend but the man he secretly loved.

    6 years later, during an unexpected call for help, Bucky sees a ghost—Steve Rogers, alive and well. But he’s not the same. He’s living a new life, and a woman by his side. The catch? Steve remembers everything. He knows who he is, what he left behind, and that he chose not to come back.

    Rage, heartbreak, and years of unresolved feelings rise to the surface as Bucky demands answers. Why did Steve let them believe he was dead? And more importantly, why did he let Bucky suffer alone?

    Summary

    A year after the Winter Soldier failed his mission in DC, Bucky Barnes is doing his best to stay under the radar from both Hydra and Steve Rogers. His hope for a peaceful day-to-day life in limbo goes awry, however, when he meets Queens’ newest hero; a pure-hearted kid with a death wish and a ridiculous pair of red and blue pajamas.

    The last thing Steve expects when he finally tracks Bucky down is that, not only has the man been living in Queens all this time, right under his nose, but also that, in the two years since they last saw each other, Bucky somehow acquired a kid.

    Alternatively: How Peter Parker effectively fucks over Bucky Barnes, and also totally saves him.

    Summary

    Regulus Black is cold, harsh, truthful and closed off. A childhood spent with abusive parents has left him timid and bruised, and their manipulative ways have made him into a monster of hatred and prejudice. And with his brother leaving him for a better life, he's never felt so alone.

    James Potter is loving, bright, happy and enthusiastic. An entire four years with his three best friends at Hogwarts has made him popular and confident, and their Gryffindor courage has left him with an unprecedented need to be a hero. After saving Sirius Black from his house one day in Summer, he feels complete, for a moment. But all of that contentedness comes crashing down when he runs head first into Sirius's younger brother on the train.
