   Summary

   Gale,

   There are times when I try to remember who I was before the war, but all I can remember is you saying that this would be the version of me worth knowing. Do you still believe that?

   Yours,

   Bucky

   Or:
   Bucky and Buck try to make it through the war and try not to lose each other.

   (Or: I lost my damn mind and did a cannon rewrite from Bucky's POV )
