Summary
This was what “retirement” looked like: an apartment in their old neighborhood in Brooklyn, with big windows and wooden floors. Three bedrooms – one for Bucky, one for Steve, and one for guests, usually Sam or Nat, or very occasionally, Clint. A small but serviceable kitchen. Soft couches. Down comforters. Bucky had expected Steve to be a whirlwind of activity, volunteering with the VA or the fire department or visiting local schools or whatever ex-superheroes did, but to his surprise, Steve showed no inclination towards his usual busy get-shit-done attitude.

“A year of nothing sounds great,” Bucky said, and Steve grinned.
