Steggy Week: Day 2: WIPs and updates

Principles (WIP)

Peggy didn’t have a better word for it besides love. The girls who lingered in the loo trading gossip like a cheap cigar might have called it slaggy— if she were stupid enough to tell any of them. Peggy was many things, but she wasn’t stupid. 

The fact was simply that Steven Rogers was in love with Peggy Carter.

The fact was also, perhaps a little less simply, that Steven Rogers was in love with James Barnes, too. 

Complicatedly: girls were not supposed to be in bed with more than one boy at once, and boys were not supposed to kiss other boys. This was not so much a fact fact, but more of a general principle. The sort of thing people wrote down in books about propriety and sophisticated gentleman. 

Steve could be a gentleman, if he tried to be. He was the sort of man who didn’t mind what kind of dancing partner he had, so long as he danced. Those sort of men were to settle down and have plain children with a plain wife who wouldn’t ask questions about a late night out with the boys. 

James wasn’t a gentleman, even on his best days. Try as he might, he couldn’t dance with a woman to save his life. Those sorts of men didn’t get happy endings with white picket fences and a plain wife and plain children. Those sorts of men were to go into the nasty corners of the world where everyone could safely ignore them. Places like the war front or six feet under or some insane asylum. (As far as Bucky was concerned, those were all the same thing.)

The only nice thing about those nasty corners of the world that the rest of the world ignored, is that they were ignored quite well. Nobody asked about the boys who slipped into other boys’ doors in the night. Nobody asked questions about the ladies who stayed in the mail room too long after shift had ended. 

People probably would have asked questions about Sargent Barnes and Agent Carter entering Captain Rogers’ quarters just minutes apart from each other, if the lot weren’t experts at stealth missions. 

Questions about Carter and Rogers already circulated camp, but that idea was allowed, in a manner of speaking. Permissible. That idea kept people from asking about boys in each other's tents. It satisfied The Principal; gentlemen didn’t kiss other gentlemen; ladies didn’t kiss other ladies. 

Peggy was no more a lady than James was a gentleman, but she was quite a good dancer with just about anyone who struck her fancy. Bucky had not particularly struck her as anything more than a co-worker, but he was decent enough company not to make her want to strangle him. Most of the time. 

It was more than she could say about her other peers.

I found a fic through here but then lost it. Identity porn with Steve and Bucky. They are email buddies at work, and check each other out in the cafeteria, and hook up at an anonymous sex club, but don't know that they're all the same person?? Steve is a veteran if that helps? Thanks!

I don't remember this one very well but... in this fanfic Bucky was a university/collage student (maybe he was studying law but I'm not 100% sure), he borrowed Steve's sunglasses and apparently looked cool in them, they had a discussion about favorite musicians (talked about Elton John, maybe the beatles).. yeah so I don't remember anything relevant from this story apart from those little details, so it won't surprise me if you couldn'tt be able to find it

Hi, I've been looking for a fic for the past month. In it, Bucky and Steve work in the same office. And Bucky lives far from the office so he has to commute every morning for more than an hour. At one point in the fic, the trains stop working because of the snow, so Steve invites Bucky to sleep at his place. I already looked through the office tag and I try to look through AO3 in a search bar with a combination of words including commute, snow in... I figured someone might remember the fic.

I read a fic almost a year ago on ao3 that I’ve never been able to find again. 40s Steve listed Bucky as his spouse on his draft card and Bucky took it from him and made him change it. Bucky stuffed it in his uniform, and sometime after TWS, Pepper found his uniform and then found the draft card tucked away in it, and that’s how the Avengers all found out about Stucky. I appreciate your help, thank you!

I'm looking for this fic where Steve is raped. I don't remember much, but I think he chooses to be abused to protect some people, children maybe. Not sure if it's HTP. And then he goes back home and Bucky realizes he's not okay, I think he hides in the bathroom or something. Thank you for whoever can help!

Hi- firstly thanks for all you guys do- the library is amazing. I've tried my best to hunt down a fic but had no joy- any chance you can help please? The gist of what I recall is, Bucky is hired as a live in support for Steve, given a big handbook on how to cook and clean+ he sleeps in a separate room initially. Peggy and Angie are a side pair, I think they come for breakfast. There's some Steve/ Nat/ Bucky also but Stucky is the main pairing. Hope that's enough to go on. Thank you massively!!

Hello, I'm looking for an au fic where pre-serum Steve just moved into his new apartment and has to call Bucky to repair something. Bucky is the repairman if the building. At one point Steve makes up a story about rats and Bucky goes along with it, knowing that there aren't rats bc he has traps set up around the building. Steve's also an artist who just got a new job w/ a higher salary, therefore new apartment. Thank you!
