    Summary

    Bucky Barnes has finally come home.

    A year and a half after the events on the helicarriers, desperate for a safe haven and a chance to finally rest, Bucky takes Steve at his word and returns to the dilapidated row house in Brooklyn where he and Steve once lived.

    Room by room, he slowly starts to fix up the house as he works on his own recovery, while Steve starts to circle closer and closer. It's not easy; it was never going to be easy, and as Steve and Bucky draw even closer to each other in their dance, there are new steps to learn and old wounds to heal.

    But nothing has ever been able to stop these two boys from Brooklyn, and as they start to share food, trips to Home Depot, late night runs and eventually laughter, it turns out that Bucky isn't the only one who needs help healing.

    That's only if Steve can get Bucky to believe in himself and the life they have started to build together, and convince Bucky to stay.

    Summary

    It’s not easy being a werewolf, but Steve Rogers knows he’s lucky. Lehigh's doing well under his care, the humans and werewolves thriving. He doesn't have a mate, but a bonding like that is rare, and with all the members of his Pack already mated, he knows it’s not going to happen for him.

    Until the day it does, the realization literally knocking him on his ass.

    That’s fine; he can deal. He’s an alpha after all, and while there are rules to courting when one’s mate is human, he knows he can prove his worth. Except no one told him how hard it would be. And Steve is really bad at this. Really, REALLY bad.

    After a couple of rough years, Bucky Barnes is back on his feet and ready to start a new phase of his life. He’s been given a second chance and while Lehigh might not be as big as NYC, he loves his apartment, chonk of a cat, new job and crazy neighbors.

    Except things have started to get weird. Maybe it’s because of all the werewolves in town, although he’s never had a problem before. Yet he can’t help but notice things have changed, with people staring at him wherever he goes, asking him strange questions, and stealing his lunch.

    And it all started when a watermelon was left on his doorstep.

    Summary

    Ever since DC, things haven’t been easy for Bucky Barnes. HYDRA stole everything from him, even his voice, and two months later he’s barely surviving as he struggles to pull the few scraps of himself left into a cohesive whole.

    Until he gets his hands on a blanket and everything changes. Fascinated by its color and softness, he begins a journey he never would have imagined. Taken in by a stranger who teaches him to knit, Bucky slowly discovers he is so much more than a dropped stitch in the fabric of life. With time, patience, and the help of a few who have had their eyes on him for a long time, Bucky begins to turn himself into something stronger, softer and more beautiful than before, weaving a tapestry of friendship, laughter and love warm enough to embrace the entire world, fix old wrongs, and wrap around the only other person who never stopped believing in him.

    Warnings: This story contains a mute Bucky, lots of blankets, scoodies and pompoms, Greek food and a demon kitten. It also contains a Steve who is still too stupid not to wear a hat when it’s cold out, but is as devoted to Bucky as ever, wanting nothing more than to spend the rest of his days snuggling beneath blankets.

    Summary

    When Bucky is hit by a spell and de-aged to six-years-old, Steve brings him home, knowing he’s the only one who can care for him. Wracked with guilt, Steve initially ignores Bucky to focus on getting the spell reversed. Until a close call leads to a near disaster, and Steve is forced reevaluate his priorities; the little boy now in his care and what he needs from Steve.

    With help from Scott Lang and the rest of his teammates, Steve embraces the role of guardian. He makes mistakes, but also learns to see the world through a child’s eyes, rediscovering things not just about Bucky, but himself as well. As the days pass into weeks filled with trips to the zoo, giant teddy bears, and the sounds of Bucky’s giggles, Steve is faced with a difficult choice; allow Bucky to grow up happy and free, never knowing what his future holds, or reverse the spell and turn him back into an adult, with all the pain that life entails. Either choice will come at a cost, one both of them, but especially Bucky, will have to pay. But maybe, just maybe, with a little bit of luck, they’ll find their way and remember not only their love for each other, but how to play, carrying that new spark with them into the future and whatever it may hold.
