Summary
Stuck in rehab after a near-fatal accident, Tony reaches out via letters to a soldier overseas, and Bucky is more than happy to write back, drawn to Tony for a reason he can't quite name. One or two letters turn into a years worth, then come the phone calls, with Tony quickly realizing that Bucky's voice, with that rolling Brooklyn accent might be his new favorite sound.
When Bucky shows up unannounced at Tony's door, one thing leads to another and maybe a confession or two is made. But Bucky's tour overseas isn't over yet, not even close, and they have months more of distance between them.
Then Bucky disappears, missing in action, and Tony doesn't know if he will ever get his soldier back. And if Bucky DOES make it home, will he be the same boy from Brooklyn who sent Tony love poems, or has his time away and his injuries changed him for good?BONUS CHRISTMAS CHAPTER ADDED 12/10/18

Summary
Bucky doesn't understand why no one ever says anything about Tony's PTSD.
A year after they have all come back, after they all hugged and made up, Tony is still jumping anytime someone speaks to him. His hands shake when Steve raises his voice. All he does is work and drink and apologize for being around.
And nobody notices except Bucky, because he is looking. Constantly. Watching Tony as he goes through his day to day.
Bucky looks and LOOKS, until he is having a hard time even wanting to look away from short spiky hair that begs to be mussed, deep brown eyes that always looks so sad, and perfect lips that Bucky just wants to kiss forever.
Bucky looks for so long that now all he wants to do is touch and hold and fix everything. But Tony can barely be in the same room as Bucky, cant even look him in the eye.
So Bucky doesn't know what to do about Tony, but he is determined to do something.
Because all he wants is to look at Tony, and see Tony looking back with a smile.(re-editing and dividing into chapters)

Hexes and Honeysuckle by NotEvenCloseToStraight

Summary
Witches and familiars go together like pb&j, like hot chocolate and marsh mellows, like Sundays and sweet tea. Witches are most powerful with a compatible familiar, spells amplified and potions intensified and familiars are endlessly loyal, terrifyingly protective with a Witch to call their own.
But an incompatible pair is just trouble and that's when matchmakers are needed.
Tony is a former witch cursed to the familiar form, bratty and sassy and a pain in the ass, rejected by a dozen other witches for sheer snarkiness and fully content to lounge in the sun instead of work. Bucky is a witch lost from his coven, quiet and sullen, struggling with even simple spells after his injury and definitely NOT excited about having a cat.
They fight from day one, are fully ridiculous from day two but despite their complaints, the matchmakers refuses to separate the pair. Tony and Bucky are like oil and water, like pineapple and pizza, like hexes and honeysuckle–
–until one day Tony uses his mostly dormant powers to walk through Bucky’s dreams and learns there’s more to the witch than he ever thought possible.

Summary
In which Tony and Steve meet cute and sort of awkward because it’s fanfiction, Steve is not into guys but he’s definitely into Tony because who the hell isn’t, NatBucky are the scariest murder couple in the world who give zero (0) f*cks about whether or not Steve thinks he’s straight, Sam is quite literally the Least Helpful and Tony is a sassmaster sweetheart with big brown eyes, a ridiculously pretty mouth and the hots for Big, Blonde and Beautiful.
There will be awkward laughs and cheesy moments and movie nights and dry humping (holla!) and a rather generous dose of Gay Panic on Steve’s part and maybe a teaspoon of angst (but that’s why we have a Murder Couple) and then of course, a happily ever after because our boys deserve the best.

Summary
Tony Stark has never liked Christmas and this year while he’s still reeling from a publicly humiliating break up, he doesn’t want anything to do with the holiday. He books a remote cabin in a tiny town as a post-break up retreat and plans to hide away until New Years.
Steve Rogers loves everything about Christmas, from the trees he sells on his farm to the parade where he gets to play Ol’ Saint Nick, and when Tony comes to town Grinchy and cranky and sad, Steve turns his attention towards finding any possible reason to make the gorgeous newcomer smile.
Steve’s goofy flirting is first met with sarcasm and exasperation, but as the days count down towards Christmas, Steve’s easy charm and lingering kisses have Tony warming to the idea of a burly lumberjack to keep him cozy on the cold nights.
Tis the season for apple cider and mistletoe, but is Steve’s adoration enough to change Tony’s mind about the holidays? Or will the chance to reconcile with his ex take Tony back to the city and away from the promise of romance and a small town Christmas?
