    Summary

    Erik Lehnsherr and Charles Xavier have never gotten along, it's a school-wide known fact. But when Charles dies in a wrong-place, wrong-time accident that Erik could have prevented, guilt plagues him for weeks; a guilt on which he pins hallucinations, paranoia, and his mental instability.

    What Erik can't blame on guilt, however, is seeing Charles sitting at his dining table with his legs crossed and his habitual smirk one afternoon, a month after he died.

    Summary

    Steve's determined to find Bucky. Even if it means following him to the coldest places on earth.

     

    “You gonna scream if I move this hand?” Bucky murmurs, breath ghosting over the shell of Steve’s ear and Steve has to stop himself from shuddering before he shakes his head. Bucky’s hand slowly drops to the mattress in front of Steve so that his arm is still draped over Steve’s torso. “What are you doing here, Steve?”

    “I could ask you the same thing,” Steve say, voice thick with sleep and Bucky hums, unimpressed. “You know what I’m doing here, Buck, what do you want me to say?”

    “I want you to say you’re being an idiot and you’ll stop following me,” Bucky says.

    “Not gonna happen,” Steve whispers. “I’ll admit I’m an idiot but I’m not giving up on you.”

    Summary

    "Steve-" Bucky starts, but Steve snatches his arm away and won't look him in the eye.

    "Drop it, Buck."

    Bucky grabs his arm again in a bruising grip, stopping him in his tracks. He leans in real close, lips grazing Steve's ear as he says, "Really? Cuz I was thinking we could go home and you can get the fight you were waiting for."

    Summary

    A long time ago, in the kingdom of Leoman, two boys named Steve and Bucky lived under the watchful eye of Steve's mother, Sarah. Raised to be fair and kind, brave and true, the two were family in all but blood. Yet their idyllic existence was to be short-lived, and when tragedy struck, the boys were torn apart. One was taken into the home of a strange man with stranger children, while the other was forced to bear the weight of a crown he did not ask for.

    As the years went on, Steve Rogers forgot the boy he'd known so well. He grew into a fine young man; fair and kind, brave and true. So, when he met a stranger in the woods - someone who needed his help - what other choice did he have?

    Summary

    He picks up the petal carefully, and finds that it’s real. The silky-soft surface feels fragile between Steve’s fingers, like a piece of tissue paper caught in the wind. Steve stares at it for a while before he’s coughing again, in a fit to rival his childhood bouts of pneumonia.

    When he opens his eyes again, he finds three more petals scattered across his sketchbook. There’s an odd, flowery taste in his mouth. He pulls one more off his tongue, and stares at it where it lies against his palm.

    Oh god, he thinks, feeling a painful ache starting in the back of his throat. He’s in love with his best friend.

    Summary

    “Hey!” He shouted, crossing the road carefully. “Do you need a ride?”

    Up close, Bucky saw that, despite his imposing height and broad shoulders, the man’s eyes and cheeks were slightly sunken in, leaving him tired and haggard looking. Even as he tightened his grip on the straps of the backpack he wore, the man still smiled cheerfully at Bucky and nodded.

    “That’d be great, thank you, sir.” He followed Bucky back to the parking lot.

    Summary

    Fairy tales need castles and curses and royalty and unrepentant bad guys. If you can find a dragon and an evil fairy and enchanted sleep, well, those are just bonuses. Not if you ask the poor bastards who have to live through them, of course. They'd prefer to have exactly none of it. But fairy tales never ask for permission; it's kind of their hallmark.

    The poor bastard of the moment was Prince Steven Grant of the House of Rogers. This time, however, things might not work out entirely in the fairy tale's favour, because the castle happened to be Prince Steven's best friend and, once fairy tales started twisting, you could never tell exactly where they'd stop.

    Summary

    “I may have told Barnes that you avoid baseball like the plague, and apparently that was vital information because he immediately became overly concerned?” Steve felt his stomach drop. “So, I’m just giving you a heads up, man.” He hung up before Steve could find a reply. It was not a conversation he ever wanted to have.

     

    Or: Steve and Bucky have a heart to heart.

    Summary

    Bucky knew that works of art were meant to be kept in a museum, treasured by all who encountered them. Perhaps it was selfish to keep this one to himself, but Bucky couldn’t find it in him to care.

    This was all for him.

    Summary

    Stevie Rogers was a medical and athletic mystery: a short, half-deaf asthmatic who on any given day looked like he'd taken a detour onto Ebbets Field on his way to the hospital. He couldn't run, couldn't field, and he certainly couldn't hit – so, as the more cynical of their fans put it, he fit right in with the Dodgers.

    Summary

    He immediately opened it to a picture he got from the museum. It wasn’t as if there was anything special about this picture in particular. It was one of thousands. Anyone could get a picture of Captain America. But he wanted a reminder that maybe, just maybe, he was more than a ghost story. Maybe he mattered.

    Or, in which Bucky Barnes tries to piece himself together and at the end of the day, everything comes back to Steve Rogers.

    Summary

    When Steve ventures beneath an old HYDRA base, he’s shocked at what he finds.

     

    “Who is your master?”

    The man tips his head and studies Steve. “If HYDRA has fallen, then I have no master. You could be my new master, since you have found me.”

    Steve jumps when a tentacle curls around his leg. He really should have been paying attention to those things.

    “Why me? Why not someone else?”

    “Because I choose you. Unless you’d rather I run around the world unchecked, doing whatever the monster inside of me pleases.”

    Summary

    “What have we here?” a low but playful voice questions. The gentle rumble of it makes him nearly shiver, tickling up his spine like a warm blow of breath.

    He comes to a standstill, and realizes it’s not just kelp wrapped around him, but tentacles as well. Black tentacles wrap around his wrists, trailing up his forearms. He gasps, turning to find an octopus behind him, nearly shrouded in the tall stalks of kelp, but his face is visible enough.

    Summary

    “I think the door just locked.”

    “What? What do you mean?” Bucky demanded.

    Steve strode back towards the door, not caring for stealth anymore as he reached for the handle. Grasping it in both hands, he tried to push it open. Locked. Grunting, he pressed his shoulder against the metal, pushing with all his weight. It wouldn’t budge, even under his strength.

    Shit.

    “The door to the freezer,” Steve said, trying again to push on it. “It’s locked.”

    -

    Or Steve gets stuck in a freezer on a mission. Bucky talks him down.
