The scent hits like a truck when Derek opens the door to the only place open for thirty-five miles.

"Copley and Andy are thinking it's time to put Booker back in rotation. It's been five years since he came out of his banishment, and this would be a low-impact first mission."

Summary
Bucky usually doesn't open the TikToks that Becca sends him, but this one is accompanied by an incomprehensible message.
Becca: You're TikTok famous
Considering Bucky has never posted so much as a single TikTok, it piques his interest. He clicks the thumbnail.
A stunningly gorgeous black man in a gray quarter-zip so tight it should be illegal fills his view.
"So I have no idea who James Barnes is, but, James, if you're watching this, I just want you to know that I received a call today from the bookstore you applied to, asking me how long you worked under me at Panda Express."
Oh dear God. -

Summary
Sam knows the date like he knows his nephew's birthdays, like he knows the day they graduated the academy, like he knows the back of his hand.
The anniversary of Riley's death, Sam takes off from any and all responsibilities and holes up in his apartment. Sarah wanted him to come home this year, but he doesn't want the boys to see him like this.
Sam sleeps until the nightmares wake him, then he stands in the shower until the water runs cold.
When he gets out of the bathroom, mostly numb and partially dissociated, Bucky Barnes is standing in his kitchen.Series

"Dr. Hughes?" A familiar head of pink hair pops back into the lecture hall.

"Andromache, this is Quynh Tran. She's new to the city, and she'll be joining us moving forward."
"Welcome," Andy says. "You must be something special for Lykon to add you to the roster this fast."
