    Summary

    Zemo's stunt in Madripoor has consequences. People saw the Winter Soldier- really saw him- and now rumours spread fast. Some think Bucky's still under Hydra control. Others don't care; they just want the weapon. Whispers travel through dark corners of the internet and black-market circles: the Asset is alive.

    And now his face is in the news.

    Summary

    The universe is always coming up with new and interesting ways to break James Buchanan Barnes.

    This one just has a bit more mileage than most.

    (The Thunderbolts are sent on a country-wide road trip to burn HYDRA’s remaining heads. Along the way, a 110-year-old man begins to accept that maybe, possibly, he’s allowed to have more than one friend at a time.)

    Summary

    “Look, I’m… I’m not really in the business of exploding little innocent laboratory experiment guinea pigs,” she said, patting Bob on the shoulder. The rodent in her hand squeaked indignantly. “So why don’t you leave here with me, and maybe we find you some clothes, and, like, a clif bar or something, because you still look sort of woozy. And then you can think about killing yourself in a way where I’m not the one pressing a button. Okay?”

    She smiled at him in an attempt at comfort, straightening her posture to give herself some authority, or at least an air of confidence. He looked at her, and then the bomb, and then the guinea pig, and then behind him to the shadows on the wall. And then back to her.

    “Okay,” he echoed, and she was pretty sure he had a bit less doom-and-gloom nothing-matters dejection in his expression now, so maybe she said something kind of right. Maybe.

    “Great. How do you feel about wearing dead people shoes? The options here are slim.”

    ---

    Or, Yelena gets sent to destroy O.X.E. Group evidence in a lab in Malaysia and finds... Bob. Bob, who was for sure a human experiment. Bob, who was definitely supposed to be dead. Bob, who absolutely knows more than he's letting on.

    Summary

    Brock Rumlow blinked, caught off guard from where he was standing in the middle of Steve’s doorway. He was looking at Bucky like he was seeing a ghost.

    Steve was oblivious. “Bucky, this is Brock. He works with me at SHIELD. Brock… I assume you know who he is.”

    Bucky grinned sharklike from his place at the kitchen table. He even went as far as to wave his metal fingers at Brock. He hoped the violence playing out in his mind wasn’t as visible to Steve as it was to Brock.

    “You’re… Bucky Barnes.”

    ***

    Much later Brock Rumlow sat in his chair in his crappy SHIELD apartment and wanted to scream.

    Steve Rogers introducing them to each other, what a laugh. As if Brock didn’t know.

    He was hit with a thought. Steve Rogers didn’t know who was in his apartment. Cause that certainly was not his old pal, his buddy, his Bucky.

    That was the Winter Soldier playing house.

    Summary

    ‘Well, isn’t this just great.’ Bucky thought, flames licking at his skin as he made a sprint for an exit, any exit. But, of course, as his everlasting luck would have it, the fire was all encompassing and had already overtaken the doors.

    ‘Fuck.’

    Sure, he could have done a few things differently. Maybe crossed some T’s and dotted a few I’s a bit sooner than he had, or, you know, spoken more than two words to Sam and kept him in the loop for once. Instead of doing what he always did, which was shot gunning himself into trouble, again.

    Fuck, Sam.

    **Bucky and Sam must work together to figure out why Hydra is suddenly gunning for the New Captain America. Is everything what it seems? Or is there something more dangerous at play?
