Sam's Delivery Service

Summary: On his eighteenth birthday, Sam, a young witch gifted in the art of flying, leaves his parents’ home to find a new city to live in and continue his witch training with his familiars Figaro and Redwing, as is tradition for young witches. In his new city, Sam has a run-in with a handsome man he hopes he’ll never see again.

Snippet under the cut:

Mama smiles when she sees him, and tears fill her eyes. “Sammy,” she says, “you look so grown up.” Sam tries not to be embarrassed. “I’m ready,” he says. “Not quite,” Daddy says, putting a hand on Sam’s shoulder. Then he looks at Sarah. “Go get it, honey.” Sarah runs off toward the back of the house, and she returns a minute later carrying a new broom, bigger than Sam’s old one. She cuts her way through the crowd and then hands the new broom to Sam, taking his old one from him. “No more training broom,” she says, grinning at him. “Daddy and I worked on this broom for a month.” Sam looks from the new broom to his sister to his father in awe. “You made me a broom?” Daddy nods. “Should last you your whole life, if you take care of it.” “Thank you,” Sam says, hugging Daddy first, then Sarah. “Okay,” Mama says, wiping at her eyes. “You’re ready now.” Sam can’t help but hug Mama one more time. “I promise I’ll write,” he says. Then he steps away, takes a deep breath, and mounts the broom. “Wait for me!” Figaro calls, jumping out of Titi’s arms, dashing across the ground, and then climbing up Sam’s clothes to curl himself around the back of Sam’s neck. Redwing flies over from a nearby tree and hovers next to Sam. “Ready!” he says excitedly. “Okay,” Sam says, checking one last time that he has everything he needs. “I’m ready,” he declares. He looks back at his family. “I love you,” he says before kicking off the ground. The takeoff is shaky—this broom has more power than the old training broom Sam is used to. Sam nearly hits a tree as he ascends into the sky, but he manages not to, and then he turns in the direction the wind is blowing, heading north. He doesn’t look down to see his family watching, but he can hear everyone cheering and calling last-minute goodbyes. Sam grins and turns on the radio Titi had given him earlier in the night, and then he’s well and truly on his way, flying fast with the wind at his back.

Force Me to Work on a WIP Poll Results

Thanks to everyone who voted in my most recent Force Me to Work on a WIP Poll! Below are the results as well as the sentences I wrote for each one. I promised two sentences per vote, so they're all pretty short snippets, but I hope you enjoy anyway :)

SamBucky's Co-Op Adventure ft. The Young Avengers (4 votes)

“Well, I was just thinking, and I’m a little worried now,” Kamala says. “Do you think if Sam and Bucky die in the game, they’ll die in real life?” “Oh shit,” Joaquín says, because he hadn’t even considered that. “That’s some anime bullshit,” Yelena says, waving a hand dismissively. “And we’re basing our rescue plan on some Jumanji bullshit,” Kate says, frowning at her. “Why wouldn’t they coexist?” Yelena hums, a frown pinching her expression. She turns to Joaquín. “How evil was the wizard?” she asks seriously. Joaquín shrugs. “Didn’t get a chance to find out, really,” he admits. “We didn’t get much of a chance to ask him why he was trying to create another ice age in Florida in the middle of the summer, but, I mean, that’s a dick move, right?” “It’s definitely a dick move,” Kamala agrees, passing the popcorn to Kate.

The Wind Beneath Her Wings (3 votes)

Natasha gets out of the car, ignoring the pain in her left ankle. The ghost of her mom’s voice whispers in the back of her mind that pain just makes her stronger, and she wonders at the fact that she’d never questioned that before. How much pain is too much pain? What’s the breaking point? After the snap, with half the world gone… Does the pain of losing Yelena, Clint’s family, Sam, so many others really make her stronger? She doesn’t think so. Steve is planning to quit Avenging, Natasha knows, and Natasha is thinking that she’ll probably end up doing the same. Before that, though, they’re on a tour to try to provide aid to the loved ones of anyone who had fought in that last battle against Thanos, and that has brought them here, to Delacroix, Louisiana, to Sarah Wilson’s front door.

The Sequel to The Pirate Fic (2 votes)

“I was hired to be a cabin boy on The Lemurian Star,” Bucky says slowly. “It was a merchant vessel from Cosp run by a man called Jasper Sitwell.” “Sitwell?” Sam asks, frowning. “Really?” Bucky looks up. “What do you know about him?” Sam shifts uncomfortably. “Only his reputation with the navy,” Sam answers, “and that you killed him.”

First Date (2 votes)

“Can you suddenly realize you’re queer after you thought you were straight for a few millennia?” Thor asks, fidgeting with a knife Valkyrie had left on the table. “Yes,” Loki answers before offering a devilish grin, “but the more interesting question is who piqued your interest?” Thor shrugs, trying to play it off. “No one. Or, well, no one really—I mean, I don’t know, it’s not really… We haven’t…” He trails off, looking up to find Loki and Valkyrie both grinning at him in a way that says he’s not getting out of this conversation until he tells them. “I don’t even know if he’s interested in men,” Thor says, frowning.

Joaquín Polycule (1 vote)

The second the pilot has entered the cockpit and cleared them for takeoff, Sam and Bucky are on each other, their bodies pressed tight together, sharing biting kisses, hands everywhere on each other. As the jet starts to accelerate for takeoff, Bucky ducks his head to kiss Sam’s neck, and Sam meets Joaquín’s eyes, heat crackling like a fire between them.

Blood and Plums Part 2 (1 vote)

Bucky wonders if Ayo and Shuri know that Sam is a vampire, that Bucky feeds him every time Sam visits. They certainly know about the other activities he and Sam get up to.

The One Where Sam's a Witch (1 vote)

“Hey, Nat, do you think I’m a mess?” Sam asks, watching as she wipes down the counter. Nat looks up at him with a sardonic smile. “I mean, a little, but everyone’s a mess at your age,” she says. “I know I was.”

Proposal (1 vote)

Sharon smiles at the thought of Nat, smiling, holding a chubby-cheeked baby on her hip while a tuxedo cat with white mittens winds around her feet. Then Sharon’s smile falls, and she sighs.

Okay, kind of in a moodboard mood, so here's two for the @sambuckylibrary's SamBucky Valentine's Day Week 2025 prompt "Gifts". Enjoy! 🥰

Hey everyone, I know it's going to be a busy day for a lot of people, but Google enrolled everyone over 18 into their AI program automatically.

If you have a google account, first go to gemini.google.com/extensions and turn everything off.

Then you need to go to myactivity.google.com/product/gemini and turn off all Gemini activity tracking. You do have to do them in that order to make sure it works.

Honestly, I'm not sure how long this will last, but this should keep Gemini off your projects for a bit.

I saw this over on bluesky and figured it would be good to spread on here. It only takes a few minutes to do.

Snippet under the keep reading:

“Are you with Sam?” a short woman with greying hair asks softly. Bucky looks up dumbly, wondering when she had appeared there. “Yes,” Torres answers. “We’re here for Sam.” The woman nods and offers a smile that would probably be comforting if Bucky wasn’t so emotionally numb right now. “I’m here to take you to one of the consultation rooms,” she says. “The surgeon will be in shortly.” Torres says something back, but Bucky barely hears him. He stands, feeling oddly robotic in his movements. He has to consciously think about putting one foot in front of the other as he and Torres follow the woman down a hallway to a little room with padded chairs and a small table. Torres thanks her, and then she leaves, closing the door behind them. Bucky sits. There’s a box of tissues on the table. He wonders if every one of these rooms has a box of tissues, or if this room is special, a bad room where they take people to tell them that bad things had happened to their loved ones. Sam could be dead right now, and Bucky wouldn’t know. The thought makes Bucky’s blood feel icy in his veins. Surely, he’d feel it if that happened? Surely, if Sam was no longer breathing, if the ray of warm summer sunshine that is Sam Wilson had gone dark, Bucky would be able to feel it. The world would stop spinning right. Birds would stop singing. Bucky would know. Minutes tick by. With each passing moment, Bucky becomes increasingly desperate. Torres is playing a game on his phone. Bucky is praying to the universe—to any higher power at all—for Sam to be okay. Bucky hasn’t prayed since that cold cell in Siberia, before he’d completely succumbed to the Winter Soldier programming, when he’d begged any higher power listening to let him die, but he prays now. He prays now, and he prays harder than he’d prayed then. He prays for Sam to be okay.

Force Me to Work on a WIP Poll

I'm putting the names of my WIP fics here (at least some of them, I don't want to put all of them down and have too many), and for every vote a fic receives, I will write two sentences. If you want to vote for multiple fics, tell me which ones in the replies/tags/reblogs, and I'll write two sentences for each fic shouted out there. Yes, this technically means you can "vote" multiple times because I'll count each instance separately, so if you vote for "SamBucky's Co-Op Adventure" in the poll, tag it, and also reply with it, that's three votes and six sentences for me to write.

I just really need some motivation to work on some WIPs, and this method has always helped before. If you're a writer and want to do a poll like this, you should! It's good fun :)

I tried to include a variety of genres and also a variety of ships, since I guess I write for a variety of ships these days lol. I know the titles don't say much, so if you want to know more about a fic, send an ask, a dm, reply, whatever. I'm happy to chat about them!
