    Summary

    “Not gonna find what you’re looking for here, sunshine, whatever it is,” she cuts him off. Steve flushes scarlet.

    “I’m not… looking for anything, really, just…” What was he looking for? Answers? Company? Sex? He doesn’t know. “I guess you could say I’m new in town.”

    Summary

    When Bucky Barnes left Brooklyn, he told himself he didn't love Steve Rogers - his small, stubborn, sickly best friend.

    The next time he saw him, Steve was taller, stronger, and every bit the man he'd always been. Even more so. The one thing that didn't change? Bucky's feelings; just as complicated now as they were then.

    In a world a war, some truths are more dangerous than any enemy.

    Summary

    The Soldier knew protocol. A failed mission meant punishment, then the Chair, then cryo. He had to go collect punishment, to ensure proper function on the next mission. It would be a risk, going back to the Vault. Insight had been compromised, communication was down. The Soldier did not know if the Vault was safe. The head hurt. He had been out of cryo too long. The words of the Captain on the helicarrier had damaged the neurological function. He would need the Chair to return to working condition. The Chair was in the Vault.

    In which the Winter Soldier grapples with his newly found freedom, Steve Rogers tries to deal, and Sam Wilson wonders if maybe he should have skipped that morning run

    Summary

    When Bucky fell from that train, when he slipped through Steve’s fingers, it had felt like the end of the world, a cataclysm whose blast radius was limited to one Steven Grant Rogers. Everyone else, he’d thought, could survive it, even if it hurt them. Steve could not. Steve had not, even if that had proven to be a temporary state of affairs.

    Now, Steve’s world doesn’t feel like it’s ending. It feels like it’s beginning again: a violent transformation, a terrible rebirth. It roars through him, hope and horror in equal measure, drowning everything else out.

    After the Avengers find a frozen Bucky in an abandoned HYDRA base in Siberia, Steve thinks that everything will be okay now that he has Bucky back, now that he's safe and alive and healing, now that they're together again. But Bucky's road to recovery is long, and Steve and Bucky have fundamentally different ideas about what it means to come home from the war seventy years later than they'd expected to. Those different ideas might even be irreconcilable. Even if Steve has found Bucky, he's going to have to reckon with the ways he's lost himself along the way, or risk losing Bucky forever.

    Summary

    Freedom is not secured by the fulfilling of one’s desires,
    but by the removal of desire.
    For where the mind submits itself to another’s will,
    there the body follows, even in chains.

    — Epictetus
