    Summary

    TFATWS, Bucky Barnes fails at dating.

    Until he doesn't.

    **
    Bucky Barnes is getting used to normal—therapy sessions, amends lists, and a one-eyed stray cat that won't leave his fire escape. He's not looking for connection when he walks into the Brooklyn Animal Shelter, but Aurelia Montgomery isn't offering to fix him. She's an Air Force veteran with her own scars and a no-nonsense approach to trauma that matches his own.

    What starts as shared understanding between two damaged soldiers slowly becomes something neither expected: a chance at healing without having to pretend to be whole.
