    Summary

    "The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; 'tis dearness only that gives everything its value. I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection." -Thomas Paine

    Through a BDSM power exchange, 21st century veterans Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes find their way home, together.

    Summary

    ”I can give not what men call love,
    But wilt thou accept not
    The worship the heart lifts above
    And the Heavens reject not,—
    The desire of the moth for the star,
    Of the night for the morrow,
    The devotion to something afar
    From the sphere of our sorrow?”
    -Percy Bysshe Shelley

    Amidst the rigid social structures at the end of 18th century England and despite the great differences of their birth, the Baron Buchanan and his valet find in each other strength and solace within the cloistered halls of Lehigh Park.

    Summary

    ”Rozanov looks good in Russia, sure, but here? I don’t know if he’ll hold up.”

    Shane wasn’t supposed to be listening. At sixteen, a decade into competition hockey, this was his first time at the Saskatchewan arena and he’d taken the wrong turn in the long, echoing corridors. The conference room door was shut, but there was a crack at the bottom and the words spilled out into the hallway, bouncing off the cheap vinyl tiles. He tried to breathe quietly, desperate for news about his opponent. There was only one other player near Shane’s level, and he’d come all the way from Russia.

    “The rumors—”

    The voice trailed off. Someone cleared their throat.

    Heart beating double-time, Shane felt for his scent blockers. One firm cuff around each wrist, pads on either side of his neck. The underwear everyone wore, basic manners. Too many alphas in a small enough space could—had—led to fights in the locker room. Always, Shane had to set a good example. Had to be better, so he could play.

    “I don’t believe it.” A chair creaked. “No fuckin’ omega plays like Rozanov.”

    Summary

    “Will you be collecting him today, Mr. Stark?”

    Tony opens his mouth. Closes it. The truth is, he didn’t think that far ahead.

    Didn’t think any of this through, really, which isn’t like him. He drove here in his sleek two-seater Audi, didn’t tell anyone what he was up to, didn’t honestly know what the fuck he was up to himself, and didn’t organize SI’s prep team that includes a transition consultant with a soothing voice.

    He just kind of... showed up. Bought a person. Forgot to plan for the part where you actually take your human purchase home.

    Modern Slavery, MCU-adjacent AU dystopia for MTH 2024.

    Summary

    This is a reference guide intended to help writers of Regency-era stories by providing a quick place to check whether a certain phrase was in use in the era, and if so, how it was used. The earliest attestation dates of phrases that postdate the Regency era might also make this guide useful to writers of neo-Victorian fiction.

    Summary

    “How’d it go with Barnes?” Natasha smirks.

    Steve finishes strapping on his helmet. “None of your business.”

    “He’s good, isn’t he?”

    The airlock disengages, loudly prying open the hatch at the back of the jet as Steve steps toward open sky and refuses to look at her self satisfied grin over his shoulder.

    “Shut up,” Steve says. And then he jumps out of the plane.

    --

    or; try as he might, steve just can't seem to feel settled. in his body, in the things he wants, in this future timeline he's still not quite sure he belongs in. bucky's supposed to be stress relief, and he is.

    but he's more than that, too.
