    Summary

    Steve Rogers had a train ticket in hand and the chance to begin again after losing everything in Brooklyn - his father, his mother, the comfort and familiarity of home. Going west meant the opportunity to become his own man and stake his claim on the wide, flat prairie.

    Then, of course, there was Bucky Barnes.

    Summary

    Steve smiled, a sad smile. “I thought you were trying not to change history. All your secrets.”

    “Maybe -” Bucky paused. He ran his hand up Steve’s side, listening to his soft breathing. “Maybe I just don’t like talking about things that make me sad.”

    After unwittingly sending himself seventy years into the past, Bucky Barnes thinks his prayers have been answered. That is, until Romanoff, Wilson and Wanda crash his 1940’s party. With the Nazi’s and Hyrdra still threatening half of the world’s population, Bucky gathers up his Howling Commandos to take the enemy by storm. This time he’ll have the help of a small but sharp Steve Rogers. In the past and the future, Captain America will fight to keep the man he loves by his side.

    Bucky must make a choice. Stay in the past and abandon the man who gave up everything for him, or return to a future that promises him nothing but pain and suffering.

    Summary

    They look nothing like what they used to. Time and life have completely changed them. But as they sit there in silence, eating two halves of one cupcake, letting Brooklyn remind there where they came from, and enjoying a sky full of stars… They are those same little boys, somewhere deep down. For just a second, you’d be able to see them again.

    And Bucky thinks to himself that maybe it’s little moments like these – fleeting as they may be – that remind him why life is still worth living.

    Summary

    As a conservator of rare oil paintings for The Met, Steve Rogers thinks of himself part scientist, part archaeologist, but hardly an artist in his own right. Only when he’s faced with the daunting task of restoring a frozen painting from a recently unearthed Nazi art hoard does he start to feel his passion for the craft return. Before he has a chance to understand what that means, Steve is transported to the 1940’s, where he meets both The Winter Soldier himself, and his own destiny.

    Summary

    "Hand that shit to me, Feldman," Rollins orders.
    'That shit' turns out not to be the torture devices Steve was expecting. In fact it looks like very flimsy scraps of white material, when he watches it change hands. Are they going to gag him? Tie him up? They could just use his own belt for that, why would they send someone out to...?
    When he realizes what Rollins is holding, his stomach drops. His eyes go as wide as they can despite feeling like his eyelids are made of lead, staring at what's now being pulled up around his legs.

    What starts out as an attempt to find Bucky and help him remember somehow gets Steve locked in a basement, without the serum, wearing only lingerie and staring down five very angry Hydra agents who want revenge.

    Summary

    Steve's Serum is failing. He's suffering again from asthma, colorblindness, dizziness and heart trouble, problems he thought he'd left behind in the 40's. Tony and Bruce can see the problem, but not how to fix it, and Bucky is determined through all of this to do what's best for Steve, even if he's not always sure what that is.

    In his life, Steve has made four promises he wishes he'd been able to fulfill.

    Returning the stones, he finds himself with the time and means to revisit them.

    (My Endgame fixit, and what I needed Steve Rogers to hear and say if he got the chance to go back in time. And what I hoped for him when he came back again.)

    Summary

    Seventeen-year-old Bucky Barnes has it all. He’s the captain of the basketball team, has a great social life, his choice of ivy league schools, and was just announced as his class’s valedictorian. Senior year is going perfectly. Until he gets assigned to be a peer mediator to Steve Rogers – one of their class’s biggest trouble makers who doesn’t know how to keep his mouth shut and goes around picking fights with everyone.

    The last thing Bucky needs is to get mixed up with Steve and his pretty blue eyes and soft blonde hair and heart-melting smile. Even if it turns out he’s not quite what Bucky’s thought all this time. Even if maybe someone just needs to listen to Steve’s side of the story. Even if Steve’s heart is so much bigger than Bucky could have ever imagined. Because Steve Rogers is so not worth becoming friends with. Again. Bucky learned that lesson years ago.

    Unfortunately, there are some things that Bucky just can’t control. Steve Rogers – and the way Bucky feels about him – is one of them.

    Summary

    “Just— think about it, Cassie, the guy’s a civilian! He’s got no clue about who Tim really is an’ look what happened! Dude almost got himself hearsed on their first… their first…” Kon trails off with a frustrated shake of his head that almost makes the spoon fall out of his mouth.

    “‘Date’, Kon, the word you’re looking for is ‘date’— ‘rendezvous’ works too, I guess, but I always found that one a bit lah-di-dah,” Cassie remarks dryly, flicking her long, blond hair over her shoulder.

    “… meeting,” he finishes, crossing his arms around the sofa cushion as he meets her eyes with what he considers defiance and what Cassie calls denial.

    —in which Tim’s dating Bernard and Kon turns into a lovesick idiot who takes drastic measures to win his best friend’s heart.

    Summary

    This time, the time leap drops him right next to Dick, on top of a fire escape that rattles when Jason lands hard with a bitten-off curse.

    The silhouette next to him glimmers with amusement. Dick’s upturned face is illuminated by a flicker of flame as he lights a cigarette and touches it to his lips. In his other hand, he swirls a glass of amber liquid.

    Sure, Jason knows Dick - his version of Dick - as a grown man has caroused in his fair share of bars and clubs. But somehow seeing a Dick just barely younger than him drinking and smoking knocks the wind out of him.

    “Hey, Red,” Dick says, smoke curling from his mouth. He looks up at Jason from under dark lashes. “Perfect timing as usual.”

    Summary

    “Your eyes look different, too, and— wait, can I see the teeth? You’ve got the teeth, right? Dude, you’re not a real vampire if you haven’t got the teeth.”

    Tim rolls his eyes, but he takes his upper lip between his thumb and index finger and lifts it up to expose his two maxillary cuspids— which are decidedly pointier than the last time that he’d directed one of his rare smiles at Kon.

    He regrets it the moment he catches the mischievous glint in his best friend’s eyes. Kon manages to keep a straight face for all of two seconds before he starts laughing and, with one of his trademark winks, delivers a punchline that would put Nightwing to shame, “Fangtastic!”

    Summary

    Dick sees people by the colors that they project into the world. Bright yellows, greens, and blues swirling around people as they move through their lives. But Gotham has always been void of most colors outside of gray, the color of lost hopes and dreams. When he spots the brilliant red in the crowd when Haly's Circus visits Gotham one summer, he can't resist the pull to find the source.
