    Summary

    “I told you,” Steve wheezes, as he tries to catch his breath. “Didn’t I fucking tell you we'd fall if you didn't quit pushing?”

    He’d laugh if he had any air left in his lungs. Instead, all he can do is stare up at Bucky as the sound of his carefree laugh winds its way around Steve’s heart. He barely even registers the cold seeping in through his jacket and jeans as he lies in the snow, attention catching instead on the snowflake clinging to Bucky’s lashes. Were Bucky’s eyes always that luminous? The crinkles around his eyes so endearing? Were his lips always that pink?

    Bucky’s laugh dies away at Steve’s continued silence. A strange expression settles on his face, like he’s looking into the face of a stranger for the first time, studying and cataloging Steve’s features one by one—eyes, nose, mouth.


    Based on this tweet, which has, sadly, been deleted: FUFJFJ ITS SNOWING A LOT IN NY RN AND IM WALKING HOME AND THESE GUYS ARE LIKE PUSHING EACH OTHER IN THE STREET AND ONE GUY GOES “YOU ASSHOLE STOP PUSHING ME IM GONNA FALL” AND THE OTHER GUY WAS LIKE “.... For Me?” and the other guy was like bro... no fuck you” AND THEY BOTH FELL

    Summary

    “Jesus!” Steve hurries forward. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to startle you.” Before he’s even halfway into the room, the man’s already on his feet and turning around. He has a face as perfect as his ass. High forehead, square jaw, pink lips with a hint of a natural pout. Short, wavy, dark brown hair. His wide, deep-set eyes are a clear and luminous gray. Those eyes widen as the man takes in the sight of Steve staring at him.

    Something about that wide-eyed, slightly nervous look catches at Steve’s memory. “Bucky?”

    Steve remembers a shy, sweet teenager, with soft round cheeks, eyes too big for his face, and a wild head of hair. If this really is Bucky, some time in the last few years, he grew into his face and is now so gorgeous that Steve’s having a little trouble breathing. The lean, toned body beautifully displayed by a black shirt and gray pants don’t help the breathing situation either.

    “You… have a beard now,” Bucky says faintly.


    or, Bucky finally gets to do something about his decades-long crush on his best friend's older brother...

    Summary

    “What happened?” Steve asks.

    “Fuck if I know. They sprayed me with something. Made my heat came on just like that.” Bucky snaps his fingers. “Then Rumlow walked in already in rut.” His grin is savage. “I guess they thought I’d be too out of my head to say no.”

    “You said no?” Steve guesses. He’s not ashamed to admit that his knees are more than a little weak with relief that Hydra’s plan failed.

    “With a punch to the dick.”

    Steve laughs and nuzzles Bucky’s temple, drawn in by his scent. “No wonder he couldn’t stand straight.”

    “Not a good day for Rumlow. I broke his dick, you broke his face.”


    Bucky's gone into a forced heat and needs Steve to knot him. Steve's been secretly in love with Bucky since they were kids. That's it. That's the fic.

    Summary

    There aren’t many things Steve won’t do to save his mother when her cancer turns terminal. Tracking down an ex-Hydra battle mage in the Dead Zone to offer his life as sacrifice for a cure is just one example. Turns out the mage has a conscience. He agrees to help, but he refuses to take Steve’s life. Instead, Steve must give up something else—something precious, something so dear to him it can fuel the magic to cure Sarah.

    Now, all they need to do is figure out what that something is...


    When Steve wakes up, just for a moment, he’s sure he’s in the wrong place. He stares up at the dent in the ceiling, the one he’d made when he got a little too enthusiastic about popping the champagne after graduating college. Next to it is the green arrow Sam stuck there so Steve would never forget that night. It’s the same ceiling he’s woken up to for the last six months. But for some reason, his mind insists it’s the wrong one.

    He blinks and the moment passes. He’s exactly where he’s supposed to be—in his room. Where else would he be?

    Summary

    Steve wakes to the feeling of a hot, heavy body pressing him into the mattress. Hands slide up under his shirt; one warm and callused, the other smooth and cool.

    “Hey now, Stevie. Why’d you go and put all your clothes back on? I just got them off.”

    Oh no. He’s dreaming of Bucky again. Of course it’s a dream. Why else would he be in Bucky’s bed. Bucky’s bed… Something about that detail niggles at him—

    “Let’s lose the shirt, hmm?” Bucky skims his hands under the hem of Steve’s shirt, sliding them slowly up. “Come on, baby. Up.”

    Baby? Steve stares at Bucky in surprise. That’s a new one. Dream-Bucky is usually pretty quiet. Not that Steve minds the endearment. He’ll cop to being more than a little jealous whenever Bucky had called his dates ‘sugar’ or ‘sweetheart’.

    Summary

    “How’ve you been, Steve? I haven’t seen you around lately.”

    “I’m good, Buck. Busy. Getting more commissions.”

    “That’s why you’ve been canceling on us, huh?”

    The hopeful look in Bucky’s eyes makes Steve wish he’s anywhere else but here in this crowded bar standing next to Bucky. “Yeah. You know how it is. Got loans to pay off.”

    He avoids Nat’s glare when he waves down a passing waitress to order a beer. There is no way he can survive the evening without a little alcohol to bolster his nerves. Because he hasn’t been canceling out on everyone. Only on Bucky.

    Summary

    “Sir.” At the uncharacteristic interruption from JARVIS, everyone falls silent. “There is an unauthorized person in the back left-hand corner of the room.”

    Steve turns around, already knowing who he’ll see as everyone scrambles to their feet. Sure enough, it’s Bucky, curled up in an armchair, loose-limbed and relaxed as a cat. Long brown hair cascades around his shoulders and the tips of his ears are exactly as pointed as Steve remembers.

    Nat whips a gun out from somewhere and points it at him. Tony has a repulsor on his hand. Wanda’s hands are up and surrounded by a red glow. Only Thor seems unworried—resuming his seat after an initial moment of battle-readiness.

    “Bucky,” Steve says.

    Bucky glances around with bright, inquisitive eyes. The corners of his lips tip up in a smile, as though amused by the chaos his appearance caused. “We meet again, Captain.”

    Tony’s eyebrows are parked halfway up his forehead as he studies Bucky. “I see what you mean by Lord of the Rings, Cap.” Then, aggrieved, “JARVIS, how did he get in?”


    In which Captain America meets a flirtatious elf...

    The only thing he remembers from wipe to wipe is that he must wait next to the bodies. He must wait for the one who comes to collect their souls.

    Summary

    When Steve glances over at Hot Guy again, Hot Guy catches his eye and gives him a tentative smile. Steve’s brain shuts down and he looks away. But the serum gave him great vision, so out of the corner of his eye, he sees Hot Guy stand up, take two steps, get his foot caught in a backpack strap, trip, and fall down.

    Steve’s out of his chair and next to Hot Guy before he even has time to think. "Oh my God, Hot Guy! Are you okay?"

    His hearing is sensitive enough to pick out Sam’s whispered “Did you just call Hot Guy ‘Hot Guy’?” at the same time as he realizes what he just said.

    Hot Guy blinks up at him from the floor, probably too confused to stand up. "Did you just call me ‘Hot Guy’?"

    Summary

    He can smell them when Bucky comes back to the apartment late at night. Different men, their colognes wafting off him as he lets himself in and walks past the living room where Steve’s always waiting. It may not be every night, but it’s at least two, or sometimes even three, times a week.

    Tonight is no different. Bucky keeps his head down as he walks past. He goes straight into his room and closes the door behind him with a finality that means Bucky won’t be emerging till morning. The sound of the shower starts up not two minutes later.

    Steve sits alone in the living room, the scent of cologne hanging in the air like an interloper in the apartment. He can’t help thinking Why not me.

    Summary

    Steve and Bucky get trapped together in very tight quarters. Oh no, whatever will they do...


    “So, Rogers,” Bucky drawls in the voice he’d reserved for ladies, young and old, and dance hall nights. “Is that a banana in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?”

    “Fuck you,” Steve mutters, as his face burns.

    “Hey now,” Bucky says. “I’m no easy lay.”

    “Cut it out, Buck. It’s, you know… adrenaline.”

    Summary

    When he walks into the pub, there's an instant feeling of recognition. He knows there's a group of soldiers waiting for him at one of the tables. He knows a woman in a red dress will walk in. He knows there is someone waiting for him at the bar.


    Wanda places her hand on Steve’s brow and closes her eyes. The red glow from her hand intensifies and casts uneasy shadows on Steve’s still face. After about a minute, the glow fades and her hand drops back to her side.

    “He fights me,” she whispers. She looks up at Bucky with an obscure pain in her eyes. “He doesn’t know me in there. I can't get close.”

    “Send me in.”

    Summary

    Maybe it's some weird acoustics of the shower area, maybe he's just attuned to Steve, but after he loops the chain over his neck and drops the tags under his shirt, his enhanced hearing picks up a small, shuddering gasp from Steve. Suddenly, he’s sixteen again, rubbing circles into Steve’s back as Steve struggles for air, he’s nearly a hundred and watching his metal hand choke the life from Steve—

    He heads towards the shower area, needing to reassure himself that Steve is fine.

    When he walks in, he’s confronted by the sight of Steve’s naked ass and back. Steve’s got one hand braced on the wall and the other hand... the other hand is somewhere in front of him, just about where his—

    Oh.

    Oh fuck.

    Summary

    Attention focused solely on the book, he moves forward, one slow, pretend-casual step at a time—he’s seen enough movies to know that moving fast will draw people’s attention.

    Five feet. Four feet. Almost there.

    He’s a bare three feet away when Rogers fucking materializes out of thin air, cuts right in front of him, and heads straight for the book.

    “Hey,” Bucky whispers furiously, “I want that book!”

    Rogers freezes. His head snaps around, and he gives Bucky a look filled with horror.

    He points a finger at Rogers. “I don’t care how hot you are, or how ripped,” Bucky growls. “My assignment is due today, and I will fucking fight you for the book if I have to.”

    Before Rogers can recover from his surprise, Bucky leaps forward, grabs the book, and clutches it to his chest.

    Summary

    “Jesus,” he wheezes, when Steve lands on him like a fucking elephant. “Steve. Steve.” He points at the title bar on the screen. “You made a public service announcement about safety first? Have they met you?!”

    “Goddamit, Buck. Don’t watch it,” Steve whines, while plastered to his back like a leech.

    “I’m watchin’ it, Rogers. There’s no way I’m not watchin’ it. Plus you’ve got that hot little suit on. Shows off all your assets.” He reaches back with one hand and pats Steve’s… asset. “Now shut up. I wanna hear you lie through the skin of your teeth.”

    Steve mumbles something into Bucky’s back. It sounds a lot like: “Wait’ll you see the one about detention.”

    Summary

    Steve drags a hand through his hair before plucking at the front of his shirt and flapping it to get air moving against his skin. Bucky watches, transfixed, as he keeps getting flashing glimpses of Steve’s nipples. He flicks a guilty glance at Steve just in time to see Steve’s eyelids sliding down to cover his eyes. Bucky's stomach turns over at the thought that Steve might’ve caught him looking. He’s not sure whether to be relieved at not getting caught, or disappointed.

    One of these days, he’s going to mess up and cross a line with Steve. His hands curl into fists to stop himself from doing something incredibly stupid. And yet, he can’t stop waiting for just another glimpse.

    When Steve finally leaves off fanning himself and splays his hand on his stomach, Bucky takes a relieved breath, and allows himself one last—

    “See something you like?”

    Summary

    “Hey Buck, what's wrong?”

    Bucky grimaces as he sits down next to Steve. “It aches sometimes,” he says, as he rotates his left arm.

    Steve puts down the report he’s reading. “I could massage it for you? I had a physiotherapist after I came out of the ice. The massage really helped when I overdid things while getting back into condition.”

    “You?” Bucky pauses mid-rotation, a look of patent disbelief on his face. “Overdo things? Say it ain’t so.”

    “Very funny.” He tries to ignore the way his heart is pounding. “You want that massage or what.”

    Summary

    Bucky stops dead in his tracks when he spots Steve standing in the middle of their living room with his arms cuffed in front of him. His eyebrows climb up, up, up. “Whatcha got there, Stevie?”

    Steve gives him a flat stare. “What’s it look like?”

    A predatory gleam lights Bucky’s eyes. “It looks like,” he says slyly as he stalks forward, “I’ve got you completely at my mercy.”

    Summary

    A man exits the building. Approximately 5’6”, thin, tired-looking. A suitable target. He needs someone he can overpower quickly and quietly. He’s injured from the fight on the helicarriers, and weak from hunger, and blood-loss.

    A streetlight illuminates the target’s face as he passes under it. That one brief glimpse of a narrow face and glowing blond hair sets his heart rate climbing. Something presses at the edges of his mind, like the wingbeats of night moths against a pane of glass. He ignores it, like he ignores the phantom voice that comes when he’s too long out of cryo. He walks towards the target, knife in hand.


    What if… What if Captain America died on the Valkyrie. What if he was reborn. What if the Winter Soldier met him after the fall of the helicarriers.
