    Summary

    James Buchanan Barnes was just trying to get through his reintegration to civilian life without becoming Bubble Boy, or a recluse, or some weird combination of the two. But then Josh Ray Person blows into his life at a VA support meeting with his stupid Elvis sunglasses and penchant for saying what he’s thinking without processing it first and drags him, kicking and screaming, out of his shell.

    Josh Ray Person was a lonely mess before he dragged himself to that VA support meeting. His boyfriend was in freakin’ England and the people he kept in contact with were too far to see every day so he was stuck in a loop of home-therapy-home-therapy-home-weed dealer-home until he forced himself to get out, go to the VA meeting his therapist had kept hinting at. When he meets James, Bucky, it’s like a breath of fresh air, a new project so he latches onto him like a grabby octopus and makes him his new best friend.

    Together they’re just trying to make it through the weirdness that is civilian life, one cup of coffee at a time.
