Summary
Whenever John is injured during missions, it always goes the same way when he gets back. The team expresses concern and offers to help. He says he's fine and limps off to the medbay without another word. If they persist and try to help, he pushes them away and snaps at them until they leave.
But Bob hadn't tried yet. And Bob wanted to help.

Bleeding, Breathing by disaster gay bob (sugarxskies)
Fandoms: Thunderbolts (Movie 2025), Marvel Cinematic Universe

Summary
“Is there anything I can do?” asked Bob. Ava shook her head, her braid dragging across her shoulder. Bob shifted uncomfortably, glanced in the direction of the bandages. It was fine. He could just bleed out or whatever. “Okay. Sorry I interrupted; I’ll just go back to… the right floor.”
“Bob.” He stopped just short of pressing the elevator button. Bob took a deep breath and dropped his gaze to the floor when Ava said, “I can see you’re bleeding. It’s dripping off your pinky. You want to tell me what happened?”
Bob sneaks into the med bay late at night. There, he finds he's not the only one in pain.

Summary
One day, tired of the arguments and tired of always doing the dishes, Bucky proposed a solution: everyone would be responsible for doing the dishes on one day of the week. It was a simple answer to a simple problem that worked for everyone.
Except Bob.
The dishes were a big thing for Bob.
On Tuesday, Bob is supposed to wash the dishes. On Tuesday, Bob does not wash the dishes.
Or: Five times Bob could not finish the dishes and one time he did.

Names Unspoken by disaster gay bob (sugarxskies)

Summary
“What’s your real name?” asked MJ. “I mean, Doctor Strange? It’s a little on the nose, don’t you think?”
“And yet it is my real name,” Stephen grumbled.
“Yeah, yeah, I made that mistake too. Sorry. Can we start over?” Peter took a deep breath. “Hi, Mr. Strange. These are my friends, Ned and MJ. Ned and MJ, this is Doctor S— St— Ste— Doctor Strange.”
“That’s Stephen, to be clear. Stephen Strange. Not ‘S— St— Ste—’ Strange.”
After realizing that Peter has an inexplicable aversion to saying his first name, Stephen becomes determined to figure out why and ends up learning more than he bargained for.

Summary
“I’m psychotic. You know I’m psychotic. You’ve known that.” It was true, Yelena had known that, but she was shocked that Bob actually said the words he’d avoided for so long. “You’ve all known for months. Why are you mad at me for it now?”
“Bob, I’m not mad.” She sounded a little mad, admittedly, but it was because she was irritated. Because it was impossible to talk to him about something that was so damn important. “I’m not mad at you, okay? I just want to understand what you’re going through so that I can help you.”
“I don’t need help. I don’t want your help.”
Bob, in the midst of an undiagnosed manic episode, decides to get his GED. Ava and Yelena join him.

Summary
“Hey.” Yelena’s voice was soft, concerned. Bob smiled and mumbled a ‘hey’ in response. Her hand made Bob jump again when it landed on his cheek as a gentle, grounding touch. “Where does it hurt?”
“Nowhere, I’m fine.” What a stupid thing to say. Bob literally dropped an entire bottle of ibuprofen on the floor and still denied being in pain. “I don’t need your help right now.”
Ever since the car accident, Bob's side still hurts when it rains. Everyone knows. He prefers to pretend that they don't.

The John Walker Goes Through It Cinematic Universe by dorky (dorcas_gustine)
Fandom Hawkeye (TV 2021), Marvel Cinematic Universe, Thunderbolts (Movie 2025)
08 Oct 2026
Summary
A Walker-centric series about the Thunderbolts becoming a team. You should be able to read each part on its own, but they're in chronological order and there'll be references to events happening throughout the whole arc.
Some of these will be gen and I'll tag them as such, but the series overall will definitely turn into (possibly very spicy) Bob/Walker at some point. There might be some background pairings and such, but I'll update the tags in case.

Summary
John had been shot before—when you’d seen as many combat scenarios as he had, you were bound to catch a stray bullet at least once. But the more he glanced down, trying to stay together in front of all these eyes, the more he realized he hadn’t just been clipped. No, he was lucky if this missed something vital.
He needed to get back to the Tower. He could deal with it there—and nobody would have to know he’d been brought down by one bullet.* * *
Closely following their public debut, the Thunderbolts find themselves—in the absence of any aliens, robots, or wizards—taking on some very violent individuals with guns and itchy trigger fingers. John Walker gets badly injured—healing is a vulnerable thing that he makes easy for nobody, not even himself.

Summary
It was supposed to be a simple photo op. Of course it was going to go off the rails. Now they're all tired, and gross, and with his teammates dropping like flies John just needs to keep it together until they make it back to the jet.
He's fine. It hurts worse than it is.

The Light Inside You is Dim by ImagineThat0327

Summary
It was not abnormal for Yelena to come to the rooftop in the early hours of the morning. It was, however, abnormal for someone else to be in her spot.
It was two AM. The air was frigid; mid-October was sweeping into the city in great gusts of wind, cool during the day but chilly at night, and Yelena had bundled up in oversized sweats and fuzzy socks to combat the cold. He, however, was wearing nothing but a t-shirt and shorts, feet bare and dangling over the edge. Staring out over the abyss. It made something twist in the pit of her stomach.
Or, Yelena finds John in a bit of a perilous spot. They talk about it.

“You know me.” He pauses, shakes his head. Hands clasped in his lap tightly so much his flesh hand turns white. “You knew me,” he says, more confidently.
“Yes.” She replies. Remembers his metal arm and the snow beneath her boots and the way his blue eyes watched their forms as they danced. A lone sentinel, both protector and executioner when the orders were given. “You trained me.”
Or, this author loves Black Widows more than air and needs more fics about Bucky training these deadly ballerinas... plus Bob is here
Or, this is now a multi-chapter fic of interconnected one-shots.Bookmarked by captainhowdyt

Summary
“Did you sleep at all, Bobby?” asked John, unable to stop himself. Bob nodded and shook John off. “For how long?”
“I don’t know,” Bob answered, and maybe it was just because his gaze wouldn’t settle in one place, but it sounded like a lie. “An hour, maybe. I’m not tired.”
“What are you feeling?”
“My head hurts.” He set his left fingertips on his temple, finally focusing on how he felt, what his body needed. “It feels like it’s on fire.”
Every morning, John wakes up before the rest of the team and spends a few hours alone. Enter: Bob, who can't sleep at all.

Summary
He holds up a pair of fancy looking handcuffs, broken in half with the wires inside ripped apart and still firing off sparks. He dangles them in front of him like a small kid, looking guilty of all things.
“I kind of broke this on accident. Well, it was on purpose, actually. But it also looks kind of expensive, so I’m real sorry about that…” He pauses, blinking. “Uh, what’s going on in here?”
“I’m getting sucked dry,” John deadpans.
***
The team is split up, John is about to get his guts rearranged (not in a good way), and Bob is being held hostage. Well… that last part’s debatable.

“So are you going to talk to him, or let him keep being a problem?” Yelena crossed her arms, staring down at Bucky, who just stared back.
“Who, John?”
“Yes, John. Obviously John.”* * *

In fact, he’s making things worse. After a little bit of convincing, Bucky Barnes decides to find out why. It goes very, very badly, and then it gets a little better.

A Canvas of Bad Memories by disaster gay bob (sugarxskies)
Fandoms: Thunderbolts (Movie 2025), Marvel Cinematic Universe

Summary
“Please, everyone has a scar on their side. Raise your hand if you have a scar on your side.”
Bob did not realize how his participation could backfire on him until every single person in the room raised their hand and somehow, he was the one they all looked at. He slowly lowered his hand back down to his lap, dropped his gaze to his book as if he hadn’t paid attention to their banter at all. Unfortunately, he was not half as subtle as he wished to be.
The odds of everyone raising their hands were high, which was why Bob joined in—he expected it to be funny. He did not expect the joke to be thrown back at him when John said, “All right, if Bob’s scar is cooler than mine, I’ll concede.”
The Thunderbolts start comparing their scars and Bob starts spiraling.
