    Summary

    “Isn’t that weird?” Sam starts, raising an eyebrow at Bucky’s parallel self.

    “Sam-“ Bucky tries to interject, looking increasingly distressed – but it’s no use.

    “I mean, you third wheeling Steve and his wife out here in the middle of nowhere?” Sam finishes, and Bucky can only cover his face with his metal hand and wish the ground would swallow him whole, knowing what is coming as surely as he has ever known anything.

    “Pal,” the Other Bucky replies with a smirk, holding up his flesh hand to show off a thin silver band while the real Bucky stares resolutely at the ground, “I am his wife.”

    Or

    Of all the parallel universes they could have ended up in, Bucky can't think of a worse one than this - one that serves as a constant reminder of everything he's ever wanted, and everything he can't ever have.

    Summary

    Bucky hasn’t spoken to anyone in 500 years. They don’t see him, pass through him, like he isn’t even there, and he supposes he isn’t. He’s a door closing of its own accord, a cold spot by the fireplace; he’s a ghost, stuck within the castle grounds, and he’s made his peace with that.

    Steve knows everything about the castle. He’s spent his entire life studying it, and now he gets to work in it, imparting his knowledge on the visitors who pass through every day.

    When Steve talks to Bucky, the first person in 500 years, Bucky knows that Steve is special. He just can’t imagine how special he truly is, and how Steve might be the key to helping him move on, in one way or another.

    Summary

    Steve can’t stop smiling, and he feels like he’ll never come down from this high. “I’m great. I’ve never experienced anything that powerful or intense. It was amazing.”

    Bucky snorts. “Alright, Robert Frost. Getting fucked in the ass is far from a spiritually awakening process.”

    “Yeah, well, I’m glad it was with you.”

    Bucky looks over at him with an unreadable expression on his face.

    Steve and his big fucking mouth.

    Summary

    Steve is an Angel. An Angel with a very specific duty.

    Bucky in a Demon. A Demon with a very specific duty.

    They're not meant to be.

    Maybe someone should explain the rules to them a little better.
