Summary
His heart burns in the hearth of a forge, pinned by the vice of time and warping in the heat, caressed by orange and blue. Visions offered in good faith at the edge of a celestial end.
Let us be metals together, melted down in a crucible. Liquified and blended, I will never be without you. My molecules are yours. I beg they wrap us in plaster, pour us into a cast, and make us something bold, dynamic, permanent. Hold me in the center of a fountain—our arms will reflect moonlight and tarnish green in freezing rain.
***
Viktor and Jayce don't grow old together, not here, but statues never die.

Summary
Bucky's dog tags were folded in the crease of the paper he'd torn from his journal, reading: "Steve, here. You have them, if you want them. You have me, if you want me. I’ve never tried loving a man before but for you I’ve run headfirst into wars and Death’s wide, gaping jaws, so this is easy in comparison. This is like breathing."
It was so dark when Bucky handed him the note, the fire just burning out, and he glanced back only once to see Steve watching him as he walked away.

Bookmarker's Notes
I'm not even halfway through this and it might be one of my favorite pieces of writing ever. If you come across this, I beg you to read it. Beg you.
"'I’ll—I’ll take the time. All hundred years if I have to, and I’ll—I don’t know what I’ll do, but I’ll work it out, I dunno. God. Okay. And I’ll—I’ll tell you. When I’ve figured it out.'"
"So, take my tags, and I’ll take yours, and if I die in this shitty fucking war, don’t tell them we switched; let me be buried under your name – and some fifty years from now, you can be buried under mine."

Bookmarker's Notes
sometimes you get to the end of a story and jump right back to the beginning so you can float through it again.
