    Summary

    Bucky Barnes was trying his best. Trying to live a quiet life, keep his head down, stay on Valentina's good side, and maybe just enjoy a cup of coffee every once and a while. It just never seemed to be that easy, and he never seemed to be able to relax.

    Except when he went to that one coffee shop, tucked away from the busy streets and overpriced just enough so it stayed quiet. Although, he didn't mind hearing your voice from behind the counter making his order.

    Summary

    ‘We are going to do great things together.’
    1947: Bucky Barnes wakes up to a metal arm and Arnim Zola’s voice.
    1979: Alexander Pierce, newly-minted member of Hydra, takes over a now-useless asset tucked away in a vault.
    2014: The master has a mission for the soldier.
    This is everything that happens in between.

    Or: Bucky Barnes, disassembled. The Winter Soldier, assembled. Horror/thriller. MCU with a few shout-outs to the comics. Gen, but you can read some Bucky/Steve and a tiny little bit of Bucky/Nat into it if you’d like.

    Written for Marvel Big Bang 2014.

    Summary

    In his 2009 book on Captain America comic books, war photography, and American propaganda, Everett claims: “There is nothing to suggest that either the graphic novels issued during the war or the photographs taken during Rogers’ stay with the Howling Commandos can serve as a basis for a queer reading of Rogers and Barnes’ relationship. But even more importantly, there is nothing to suggest that such a relationship ever existed in the first place, and as such, those queer readings are not only misguided, but also libelous” (197).

    [from: Lynn E. Anderson, Captain America: Behind the Mask. Steve Rogers and the Contemporary Hero Narrative (New York: Palgrave Macmillan, 2012), p. 242.]

    In the aftermath of Steve's return to the world of the living and the battle of New York, the academia and the Internet react.
