    Summary

    Carlos's reaction to the first date involves a lot more anguished cries than Cecil's, though to be fair, they're only anguished cries of "Why did I do that, why did I say that, why am I allowed to interact with other people" so they're still better than at least eighty percent of Night Vale's late night wails.

    Summary

    What do you do if you’re down on your luck and about to be homeless? Well, if you’re Trevor Barrett, you go bitch to your ex-girlfriend, who then signs you and one of her friends up on a Sugar Dating site.

    Apparently, there was a rich older guy looking for a lad and lady pals, and Trevor and Sypha fit his oddly specific requirements almost perfectly. He wants company, they need money. What could possibly go wrong?

    What the Belmont Hold, both public and private, couldn't tell anyone was how much Trevor hated reincarnation.

    Five times Trevor was reincarnated and the one time someone important to him noticed.

    Summary

    It seems unfair, at least to Adrien, that evil always comes back, yet good never does. The universe owes the old dhampir at least one break, doesn't it?

    And he may just receive it when Castlevania is set to emerge in Japan.

    Summary

    Season after season passed and Steve didn't see a single human, only the animals and the birds and the plants and the lake, until the day the man with the silver arm appeared, stripped naked, and waded into the lake. For the first time in a long time Steve left his oak-self to crouch hidden in the bushes, watching him.

     

    The man was beautiful, Steve had never seen a human who was so much like an oak, he hadn't thought it was possible, and he wanted to run his fingers over the man's skin, see if he felt as strong as he looked, see if his skin was smooth or rough. He wanted to touch his hair, find out if it was soft. He wanted to touch the silver arm, to discover what it was. It looked like metal, but he didn't see how that was possible.

    In which Steve is something like a dryad, Bucky's not the Winter Soldier anymore but he's not quite sure he's Bucky, and together they discover that some choices are worth making.

    Summary

    Bucky's life was saved because he picked up the tab for a cup of coffee.

    He'd heard of people getting rewarded for good deeds, but that seemed way out of proportion. Sure, the life-saving came with a side order of being a werewolf, but since that was way better than being dead, he figured he could deal.

    Of course, that was before he learned about the vampires...

    Summary

    Bucky enjoyed his life, travelling from town to town, making a living from his minor magic. He’d been following the same route for a few years and hadn’t expected much to come of changing his routine.

    He sure hadn’t expected the short, skinny blond to plant himself in his path as he walked into Briartown, give him the coldest glare out of the bluest eyes he’d ever seen, and say, "I know you're following me. It stops now." He glanced at Bucky's metal arm before glaring straight into his eyes. "Whatever you want I'm not gonna give it to you. So go back to whoever you came from and leave me alone." He paused, clearly waiting for a response, but Bucky had nothing and the guy turned on his heel and walked away.

    Bucky stared after him. Baffled. He felt like he should be angry, maybe, being accused of something he hadn't done, but he was too damn confused to get there.

    In which Bucky meets Steve and Steve meets Bucky and magic happens.

    Summary

    Sometimes, when you come home, there's a Very Large Dog in your yard. Sometimes, if you're Steve Rogers, the dog isn't a dog. It's Bucky Barnes, a SHIELD agent who's hiding from HYDRA, because it was the only way to shake their Tracker.

    Steve has no idea the dog's a SHIELD agent on the run from HYDRA, but he is starting to suspect that the dog? Isn't really a dog.

    Summary

    All Bucky had wanted was gold. A few jewels. Not a king's riches, not a prince's fortune, just enough he'd never have to worry about anything ever again. It was what had sent him racing to the dragon's cave when he'd overheard the news that the Prince had killed her.

    But he should have known better. Nothing good ever came from eavesdropping, and nothing good ever came from listening to men in pubs, and now instead of gold, instead of jewels, he had an egg. A dragon egg, and no idea how he was going to keep it alive.

    The dragon egg wasn't all he had, even if he didn't know it. He also had a full-grown dragon on his trail, one who'd sworn he'd find the egg--and the human who stole it.

    Summary

    Kelpies were killers. They lived in the water, drowned anyone who came too close. Ate them, most of the time. It was reflex not choice, like the kick that follows a hammer hitting a knee, because kelpies were no more aware than a wave or a wildfire.

    Hydra knew about kelpies. It was why they'd come up with their brilliant plan to capture one and turn it into an assassin. But like so many plans that seemed good on paper it came with unintended consequences—in Hydra's case, the unintended consequences were Bucky and no more Hydra.

    Steve didn't know that. Even as a sometime Shield consultant, he had no way of knowing any of that. Which meant when the sleek black horse surged up out of the water and didn't kill him, the only answer he could give to, "Why?" was, "I don't know."

    Summary

    "You say the Warhorse showed up last night," Sam said in tones of profound doubt.

    "Yeah," Steve replied.

    "The Warhorse. The Warhorse of legend. Daelland's Warhorse."

    "The same as the one on the back of the transit card, yes."

    "And he appeared in your living room?"

    Steve eyed the Warhorse, very large and very black and giving him a dubious look out of his strange grey eyes. "He's standing in it right now."

    "Uh huh," Sam said.

    "Hey, I'm not any happier about it than you are."

    * * *

    Steve's mom had left Daelland long before he was born, following her heart to New York, but she'd raised him on stories of its famous Warhorse. Before she died, he'd promised he'd go back and learn the country she'd come from.

    That was why he was in Daelland. Not so Daelland's legendary Warhorse could appear in his living room. But planned or not that's what had happened—now Steve had to figure out what to do about it.

    Summary

    Steve squawked as a hand wrapped loosely around his wrist. He braked, wings banking so hard he almost somersaulted over himself, and surged up and away from the ocean, spinning to find himself staring at—

    A triton was laughing up at him, sharp teeth gleaming in the sunlight. Steve had seen tritons before. He knew what lurked under the water. The power and violence wrapped in muscle and skin.

    The triton's grin turned knowing, like he could see what Steve was thinking. "Hey there, Feathers. You want to go for a swim?"

    Summary

    SHIELD was the only intelligence agency that assigned werewolf and vampire agents to work together in the field, but the program had been a staggering success. They compensated each other’s weaknesses, complemented each other’s strengths, and a werewolf could feed a vampire and shake off the effects faster than ordering a pizza.

    Bucky knew all that. What he didn't know was why this particular vampire, one Agent Steve Rogers, was holding out a protein bar. They were perched in the rafters of a warehouse, waiting for not-overly punctual arms dealers to show up and deal arms, had been stuck up here for a couple of hours, but none of that explained vampires suddenly offering snacks.

    In his near decade as a werewolf in SHIELD, Bucky had worked with a lot of vampires, and they all tended to be pretty much the same. Steve Rogers was different, didn't fit the vampire mould, and Bucky couldn't quite figure out why.

    Not that it really mattered. Steve was just someone he was occasionally paired with on SHIELD assignments. It wasn't like he was going to have any effect on Bucky's life.

    Summary

    "Steven Grant Rogers," a voice said from somewhere near Steve's front door. "Professional inker. Maybe you'd like to explain why you're leaving us messages about our good friend Bucky?"

    The redhead currently pinning Steve to the couch said, "Really?"

    "Alright, her good friend Bucky. My tolerated friend Bucky."

    "My phone's on the table," Steve ground out. "Grab it, have a look at the last picture."

    The guy grabbed it, and his obvious double-take would have been funny if Steve wasn't being crushed into his couch. He held it out and the redhead peered at it. "It could be fake."

    "That's right," Steve said, digging down for all the sarcasm that existed in his skinny body. "I scribbled all over my own thighs and took a photo so I could lure a pair of hostile weirdos to my apartment. That's how I enjoy spending my time."

    "You know what this means, right?" the guy said, sounding deeply bemused. "Bucky has a soulmate."
