    Summary

    “So you’re trying to say he did this from the kindness of his heart? That he saved you?” Bucky spat out the words like it was venom.

    “Whether he was kind or not, that’s subjective, but every time I regained consciousness I was asked if I wanted to die. Every time I said no. So he kept trying to save my body, or what was left of it, until he wasn’t able anymore.”

    “That doesn’t make it right,” he said. “What he did to you wasn’t right.”

    John tilted his head at that, as his brain processed his wording. The LED on his temple turned from blue to yellow.

     

    It wasn’t… right?
     

    Or: John gets turned into an Android, losing his ability to experience emotions, or so he thinks. He, now, has to navigate his life and a complicated relationship full of unfinished business with Bucky Barnes.

    Summary

    Summary

    After missions, John Walker’s fatherly habit of temple-kisses becomes the Thunderbolts’ unspoken ritual—touch-starved teammates lining up for cheeks, hugs, and grounding warmth in their crew-less corner of Avengers Tower. Everyone gets their kiss…except Bucky Barnes. Until Sam points it out, and Bucky asks in front of the whole team. One forehead kiss, one panicked retreat—and the start of a slow-burn promise that neither of them can outrun.

    Summary

    “You really scared me there. For a second, I thought you weren’t coming back,” Bucky whispered in a low voice.

    It was a vulnerable confession.

    He had never sounded like that before, not for John. Ever. It was too personal. Too intimate. Too much.

     

    Or: John time-travels and has to figure it out how to go back, as he struggles to understand why this future Bucky is so different from the one back home, the one that hates his guts.

    Summary

    File Designation: Project Rebirth. 2.0
    Subject: JOHN F. WALKER
    Statue: Evaluated as Unstable/Conditional

    Summary: Subject represents one of several post-Serum initiatives designed to replicate Steve Rogers/Captain America. Unlike gamma-based trials (see: Banner, Bruce ), this experiment sought to produce a viable successor through cloning procedures and controlled upbringing.

    OR: Unknown to John, Sam and Bucky find out John is actually a clone of Steve. And an unsuccessful one that that. Meanwhile, John can't figure out why Bucky is starting to treat him differently. Nicer. He has to admit, he likes it. Likes what things are turning into, what they could be.
