Summary
Bucky scraped all of his courage together to let Steve go once, and he knows without a shadow of a doubt that he’ll never be able to do it again. So, why is Steve back here?
Or, Steve is right back on the platform after the ten seconds are up, all the stones once more in their rightful place, because traveling seventy years into the past didn't actually give him what he needed.

Summary
There are few rituals among the girls of the Red Room, and fewer still that retain some innocence, but this is one of them. The Widows play with each others’ hair, combing and curling and brushing and braiding. It’s a practical enough pastime that the handlers have never cracked down on it, though they have looked askance whenever the Widows get too creative with their makeshift hairdressing.
Five times someone braids Yelena's hair, and one time she braids someone else's.

Summary
“This broken white boy needs our help, doesn’t he? On account of how you sort of ruined his life?”
T’Challa winces and shoots the frozen Sergeant Barnes a hilariously guilty look. “That’s not—I didn’t—really, I think his life was already—”
“It’s fine! I can clean up your mess,” she tells him, still smiling. “And he didn’t—he didn’t kill Baba, so. We should help him, we should make it right. No one else can help him, can they.”
How Shuri deals, after Civil War and Black Panther.

might never be normal again (but who cares) by napricot
Fandoms: Marvel Cinematic Universe, Captain America (Movies)

Summary
The beginnings of a plan took shape in Steve’s mind, as clear and simple as a tactical frontal assault. He’d prove to Bucky that this was it, he was staying: Steve was retired from the fighting game, Steve wasn’t going to let anything keep pulling them apart. Maybe then when Steve finally told him he loved him, Bucky would believe him.
All things considered, Steve thought he’d handled the whole Thanos killing half the universe thing and the ensuing bitter, desperate quest to defeat him pretty well. Sacrificing his super soldier serum to use one of the Infinity Stones wasn't a problem either, not when it meant getting back the half of the universe they'd lost, and especially not when it meant getting Bucky back. But retirement and finally confessing his feelings for Bucky? Those were proving to be more challenging.

Summary
After the events of CA:TWS, Steve Rogers moves back to Brooklyn in the hopes that Bucky will follow him to their old home. He never expected his plan to work, and definitely didn’t expect it to work this fast. Bucky shows up on his doorstep a week after the move, disoriented and confused but trusting Steve to help.
With Bucky wanted by every major intelligence agency, world government, and HYDRA, Steve decides to do something unexpected: tell no one he found Bucky. Just how long can he keep the ex-assassin’s presence, and his growing feelings for his best friend, a secret?

Summary
“I just had the best idea I have ever had in my life,” Bucky said, punching straight through a doombot with his metal hand and clutching the napkin with Steve’s phone number in the other. The formerly (somewhat) dark and peaceful corner of Central Park was now lit up with energy beams, flashing robotic lights, and panicked astronomy buffs running for cover. Oh well, it wasn't like they'd been going to see many stars what with all the Christmas shit everywhere.
“The bar you are setting for that is not high,” Natasha told him over the coms.

Summary
Steve buys a run-down house on a whim; it needs work. Bucky shows up.
Contains: probably inaccurate home remodeling things, lots of painting the walls, Bucky figuring out how to be mostly himself again, Steve deciding to paint a mural on one of the walls (but it's really a metaphor), Steve and Nat crashing some formerly-HYDRA bases and getting into a few scrapes, eventual Steve and Bucky hooking up.

Summary
Captain America wakes up from the ice in 2013. The Winter Soldier wakes up in 2009, or rather defects from HYDRA, for a value of defect that’s closer to decimate. He ends up working for SHIELD. In April 2014, he’s assigned to Captain America’s mission as a sniper.
Steve’s just trying to get some kind of life together. Bucky is too, or at least he was until tall, blond and Captain shows up and starts just - being there, all the time. It’s terrible. It’s the worst. He has to do something about it.- Language:

Summary
“I watched a documentary on the bombs dropped on Nagasaki and Hiroshima a while ago. In the blast radius, sometimes a… a person blocked the bleaching effect of the radiation. So the person was vaporized, but a shadow was left behind, on a bridge or a wall – their shape, their outline, when they were completely gone," Steve said. "It’s called a nuclear shadow.”
“If you’re implying the Soldier is like a nuclear shadow, then that is seriously fucking dark, man,” Sam said dryly.
OR
Before the fall of the Soviet Union, the Winter Soldier was sent to the American arm of Hydra - only there was a malfunction in the cryo-unit that meant it couldn't be opened, and it was left, powered but abandoned, in an underground base.
25 years later, the Avengers find it.

Summary
“Coulson. I really think this kid can be something, but the way it’s panning out, I might have to cut him loose.”
Phil sighs. Because Clint Barton should not be cut loose—his potential is extraordinary. Phil has read the simulated mission reports and seen the kid himself on the range.
But Clint is cocky, mouthy, and defensive—which wouldn’t be all that bad expect that Clint is a sub, which also wouldn’t make things that bad except Clint has never been successfully put down into subspace. By anyone. Ever.
