    Summary

    There was something comforting about the darkness. The void. The silence that washed over him as the numbing nothingness took hold. It seeped into Bucky's skin, settling like a blanket weighted just short of suffocating; warm in the way that left him feeling cold and hollow.
    Maybe the experience was the same for everyone, or maybe Bucky was a special sort of fucked up because initially, the void wasn't so bad. Even when it began to shift around him, shadows closing in, it was fine. Shadows were, after all, precursors of the light.

    ----

    My rather philosophical take on Bucky's adventures through the shame rooms.

    Summary

    “And?” The old crone looked positively lecherous, her eyes gleaming with the colour of fate weaving and stretching and breaking apart countless futures.

     

    Steve swallowed thickly, his eyes flicking to the relative safety of the fire.

     

    “I yearn,” Steve confessed. “To touch and to feel and to hold. Soft darkness and yet so much strength. I see a man chosen by Fate in my sleep, and it keeps me wakeful and restless and empty.”

    ----

    When custom and duty dictate that a young king consult an ancient witch, secrets best left unsaid are pulled from his lips, and a prophecy dark as the night is mapped out before him.

    Summary

    Every story has a beginning; every beginning has an end.

    Three little words started it, spat out between rival gangs and answered with fists. A beer bottle turned the fight into an all-out war and the war sparked a betrayal unlike anything else.

    What started in the neon glow of Tokyo's back streets found its climax amidst broken glass and bloodied fists in the graffiti-covered halls of Kurogin High, prompting two friends to turn their backs on all they know.

    Summary

    Drink after drink; a shot of tequila and a shot of absinthe and then back to the start. Loops and circles, vicious and never-ending and Kame would be a shaking, pleading mess by the end of it. Eyes sunken and knees trembling, he'd lick at parched lips and watch tendrils of smoke roll from the depths of that mouth he craved so much.

    Summary

    As a boy of seven, Bucky sat at his babushka’s feet, listening to her croaky old voice talk of fairy tales and prophesies while her lips curled around a lit Laika, the smoke trickling from her nostrils like a tsmok from one of her stories.

    His babushka was horror, and she was memory; a lingering link between a world Bucky’s mother hated and one he saw as fantastical and magical. She was the storyteller, the soothsayer and the bringer of Bucky’s dreams.

    She also heralded his nightmares.

    Summary

    USSR, 1941; Soviet and German troops clash as the Axis powers push to conquer Moscow.  

    When an elite member of the Red Army’s 181st Special Reconnaissance Detachment finds himself tasked with the survival of a group of American Commandos, he quickly realizes it’s not just the Germans he needs to protect them from.

    With the harsh Soviet winter settling in and supplies dwindling, the bone-numbing cold brings to life a new series of threats, none of which can be eliminated with a bullet.

    Summary

    “Late night infomercial Cap performer?” Bucky asked in one last, ditch-all effort to force this insanity to make sense. “Documentary reenactor?”

    Steve didn’t look amused, so Bucky took that as a no.

    ------

    When Bucky’s fuckbuddy (who is inexplicably nice to Bucky’s asshole of a cat) wants to attach strings to their relationship, a whole world of secrets trickle into the light of day. Including, but not limited to, Bucky’s love of vodka.

    Summary

    “Hey, girl,” Steve said, crouching down low to scratch Alpine behind the ears. “How’s it going?” Alpine was a fluffy mess under Steve’s hands, rubbing and pressing and meowing like she was the one with a hard-on trapped in jeans that were already far too tight.

    Bucky watched with a combination of amusement and mild displeasure at being ignored.

    When his frequent booty call is nice to his insufferable cat, Bucky starts to worry that his blood is rushing back up to his head.

    Summary

    Captain Steve Rogers had thought his military days were behind him, left in the bloody nightmare that was Saigon. Retired and working as a History Professor, the last thing he expected was to get caught up in a cataclysmic Slavic prophesy foreshadowing the end of the known world.

    With Cold War tensions running high, Steve finds himself in need of a guide and translator to get him behind the Iron Curtain and into the isolated snowdrifts of Siberia.

    It’s deep in the heart of Bucharest’s resistance fighters that Steve finds the ideal candidate, but swaying the enigmatic ex-operative known as The Winter Soldier proves to be complicated. Trust is hard-won, especially in the world of espionage, and with a KGB death squad nipping at his heels, the Soldier has countless reasons to stay presumably dead.

    As the lines between right, wrong and the supernatural begin to blur, Steve is forced to reconsider everything he’s ever believed, right from the sanctity of his own country to the very foundations of creation itself.

    Written for the Bucky Barnes Bingo fluffathon week.

    My personal challenge; make it into a complete spur-of-the-moment, on-the-fly chapter fic with a plot, all while relying on nothing but the daily prompts to shape the course and development of the characters. Oftentimes, I think I’m crazy and that I make life really hard for myself. :)

    Summary

    Forced into a writer’s block hiatus, Crime-Noir author Shiroyama Yuu finds himself banished to a small fishing village deep in the mysterious Wakayama Prefecture.

    Surrounded by sacred mountains and Shinto shrines, and with no decent wine in sight, the last thing Aoi expected was to find a muse. Especially not in the way of an enigmatic young man with an enchanting outlook on life and a mischievous gleam in his eyes.

    But as is the way with Aoi’s novels, he’s starting to discover that not everything is exactly as it seems…

    Summary

    The third time Steve saw him was no accident.

    Neither was the fourth, nor the fifth.

    There was a turning point in every situation in life. That tip on the scale of accidental and deliberate, where something innocent could be warped and twisted into something premeditated and intentional.

    Steve passed that point last Thursday.

    Summary

    For centuries the MEPA has watched over the people of Middle Earth, none so diligently as sharpshooting Detective Greenleaf. Unparalleled in skill, his dedication to his cause, however, is put to the test upon meeting his new partner; a dense, mangy shagpile of cheap cologne and e-cigarettes.

    With the prospect of his shining career being over in a puff of Athelas flavoured smoke, the young elven investigator sets out to once and for all prove that he works better alone. But with the discovery of a deadly new drug on the streets and a bloodthirsty gang closing in, even Legolas has to question if he’s bitten off more than he can chew.
