Bucky Barnes is stuck. He bartends at what might possibly be the worst, most depressing bar in all of New York City, he lives in a shithole apartment which he can't make rent on, and he drinks himself to sleep every night. His best friend Natasha thinks he is suffering from trauma related to his two tours of duty in Afghanistan - he doesn't agree with her, but knows that something is wrong.

Summary
This is the story of two French boys who meet only under the cover of darkness, their lives interweaving and becoming one through music, liquor, discourse and dance in the bustling everyday of early-1990s Paris. It starts by one getting punched out by the other, God bless. Pre-Homework era AU. [Two-parter, mostly fluff, extremely NSFW in the second part.]

Summary
“Is he single?”
“Well,” Clint smirks, unable to hide the amusement in his tone, “What if he is?”
Then shit, it’s about time he pulled that Bucky Barnes charm after letting it settle dust for all these years.
Steve is the cute stranger who can’t seem to keep his sketchpad closed for more than 10 minutes, and Bucky’s the loser who fights back tears on the subway when he reaches the climax of his favorite book.
Steve is radiant and gorgeous and with a body that looks like it was crafted from marble.
And Bucky?
Well, Bucky’s…Bucky.
At least they have one thing in common: the c line back home to Brooklyn.
2/20 update: currently under revision!

Summary
Steve's just moved back to Brooklyn after spending ten years in California trying to make a life for himself as an artist right after high school. Having escaped to the other side of the country following the sudden death of his mother, Steve feels guilty about abruptly leaving all his friends for so long, unfulfilled, scared and nervous about started college at his age, and unbelievably lonely. So when he meets Bucky Barnes, a young sex-worker, at a bar the night before his first day of classes, temptations might be too high to resist.
One night paying for sex with the most sinfully gorgeous guy is nothing to brag to the papers about, huh?
S'not like he'll ever see him again anyway...
...Right?
