Radio Nowhere by Poe (/27007417). Bucky runs a podcast called The Wastelands, Steve is an artist. Ethereal and creepy and so, so good.

Thank you for writing in!

Radio Nowhere by Poe (complete | 10,204 | T)

"The Wasteland was a place where your name didn’t matter, where your gender didn’t matter, where who you fell in love with didn’t matter. All that mattered was survival, was the adventure, was the long nights with nothing but the chirping of crickets and the alien howls of the horrors that lurked just beyond the horizon to sing you to sleep. The Wasteland was a beacon to other outsiders, somewhere, that despite the desert demons, it was safe to be yourself."

(Or: Bucky Barnes runs a podcast, but doesn't want to be seen. Steve Rogers can't stop looking.)

I'm looking for fics with trans!Steve where the serum transformation gives him the male body he always felt he needed? I remember reading one once but it's hard to find more that have that specific plot point and not just regular trans!Steve. Thanks so much for this blog and all your hard work

I managed to find a few:

Home by bbuckyy (oneshot |3,186 | T)

“This is… me. I was always s’posed to be this, don’t you see? The serum was supposed to make more of what was already there. I’ve been a man for as long as I can remember, only now everyone else can see it too. I never thought I’d be able to look in the mirror and be happy with what I saw.” He turned back toward the mirror. “I’ve had dreams where I would wake up and be a real man, go about my business ‘n have everyone call me ‘sir’. And now I’m not dreaming. I’m looking at myself and seeing me.”

Steve's transition documented by some major and a few minor moments in his life. Kinda sappy, kinda uplifting, kinda just me not going to sleep.

S̵h̵e̵ Wants To Be Born Again by Cryptand_Bismol (oneshot |9,275 | M)

“I suspect it might have another effect, too.”

“What do you mean?”

“It brings what is on the inside to the surface.”

Steve looks at him blankly, “I don’t-”

“We both know who you are inside, Steven. That the physical does not align with who you are. If I am correct, by the end of tomorrow you’ll be who you were born to be.” Erskine looks at him, really looks, and Steve feels like he’s being flayed open by the intensity of it. Whatever he was looking for, he seems to find, as he breaks the stare and pulls out the bottle of Schnapps, “Whatever happens tomorrow, you must promise me one thing. That you will stay who you are. Not a perfect soldier, but a good man.”

Stellar by vintage_granddad (complete |16,439 | not rated)

“The serum was not ready. But more important, the man. The serum amplifies everything that is inside, so good becomes great; bad becomes worse. This is why you were chosen. Whatever happens tomorrow, you must promise me one thing. That you will stay who you are, not a perfect soldier, but a good man." During the Great Depression, a young, trans Steve Rogers falls in love with his best friend, ultimately creating an unbreakable bond. And, by a supposed mistake of modern science, Steve Rogers is finally able to live as himself, at a cost.

If you know of any that I missed, please feel free to write in and let us know!

tell me about the dream by thicc_boi (complete |19,822 | E) - drug use cw

In the future, USA falls into a civil war, dividing the country into the rich and the poor. Bucky and Steve find themselves on the opposite sides of the border but they have a really bizarre connection. They quickly find out that they're soulmates and are willing to do everything to be together.

Tomorrow Is Another Day by charlesdk (complete |75,862 | T)

When Bucky got the door shut in his face by a tiny, barely awake blond, he never thought that said tiny blond would become such an important part of his life. Or that he would fall deeply, hopelessly in love with him way too quickly.

[thestuckylibrary]

i really recommend this fic!!! it has trans!steve and trans!bucky and is incredibly sweet and tender

[thestuckylibrary]

"Seasons change (but people don't)" by ftmsteverogers is a good trans skinny steve story

Thank you for writing in!

seasons change (but people don’t) by ftmsteverogers

“If there’s a girl I’m meant to be mourning, I want to know,” Bucky persists, as though Steve hasn’t had a close brush with asphyxiation right before his eyes. His foot twitches against Steve’s under the table.

“There wasn’t a girl,” Steve coughs. “Why…?”

Bucky’s gaze is sharp and discerning as his eyes flick back and forth between Steve’s.

“There was,” he says, right hand gripping the counter behind him in a white-knuckled grasp. “A girl. A small blonde girl.”

heyo do u have any recs for trans!steve or trans!bucky? i’ve read some for trans!steve but not many for bucky, thank u and i love u all!!

Trans Bucky 

Trans Steve 

Belonging by charlesdk

OR; in which Steve finds a place for himself in the world and develops a crush along the way. Sometimes, the future can be pretty okay, all things considered.

how did we get so lucky? by wlwpeggycarter

Bucky isn’t done with their healing process, far from it, but everyday is a day forward. Bucky likes to remember something Sarah told Steve ages ago, ‘Because, and you listen close, Steven. You always stand up.’. It is a nice thing to remember, even if it wasn’t meant for them originally, even if it does not fully apply to their situation. They just have to keep standing up, and one day it won’t feel like such a hard thing to do.

Don’t Miss Your Water by ACometAppears, nightmaresinwintah

In a world where Steve Rogers is a tattoo artist in the twentieth century and Bucky Barnes is the Winter Soldier struggling to find his place in the future, the two of them seem less inclined to bump into each other than in the original story. But in this reality, two soulmates find each other through homeless kittens, a tattoo festival and a whole bunch of blushing and crushing. (Both romantically and literally, on Bucky’s part.)

What’s In A Name by cleo4u2

Steve has always know his best friend will be his soulmate. So when he wakes up with the name of a guy on his arm that he’s never heard of, he’s devastated. Thankfully, Bucky has a surprise in store for him.

Stella by neversaydie (WIP)

[When Steve puts up an ad for a model and Bucky walks into his life, things don’t exactly turn out the way he was expecting.]

[thestuckylibrary]

Do you guys know of any fics with skinny trans Steve. Him being skinny is a big factor in whether I want to read it or not.

Try our Trans Steve tag, there’s quite a few in there. It’s not always tagged, though, so use the back button when you need it :) 

[thestuckylibrary]

If shameless self-promotion is acceptable, I’ve got another fic for the drunk anon who wanted pre-War drunk fics. It’s called “In Vino Veritas” and it’s also a trans Steve fic.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/11175186

it’s always acceptable!

In Vino Veritas by the_genderman

Steve gawped. Did Bucky really just proposition him? This wasn’t some kind of cosmic joke, was it? Three years of hoping that Bucky would notice, really notice, him. Three years of praying that he’d find someone more appropriate to fall in love with. Three years, and his stomach was doing the exact same flips it had done on the first day.

[thestuckylibrary]

Any new trans!steve fics?

Within Arms Reach by roe87

It’s just Steve’s luck that he falls head over heels for the first stripper to give him a lap dance.

Being the romantic he is, Steve asks him on a date anyway.

He wasn’t expecting the guy to say yes…

do you know any high school AUs but with trans steve?

I'm sorry, there don't seem to be any? I'm hoping they just aren't tagged and that some of our followers will be able to send in a few titles. [Here](http://archiveofourown.org/works/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&commit=Search&work_search%5Bquery%5D=trans&work_search%5Btitle%5D=&work_search%5Bcreator%5D=&work_search%5Brevised_at%5D=&work_search%5Bcomplete%5D=0&work_search%5Bsingle_chapter%5D=0&work_search%5Bword_count%5D=&work_search%5Blanguage_id%5D=&work_search%5Bfandom_names%5D=&work_search%5Brating_ids%5D=&work_search%5Bcharacter_names%5D=&work_search%5Brelationship_names%5D=James+%22Bucky%22+Barnes%2FSteve+Rogers&work_search%5Bfreeform_names%5D=High+School&work_search%5Bhits%5D=&work_search%5Bkudos_count%5D=&work_search%5Bcomments_count%5D=&work_search%5Bbookmarks_count%5D=&work_search%5Bsort_column%5D=&work_search%5Bsort_direction%5D=) is everything I could find with any trans character in a high school setting.

[thestuckylibrary]

It is probably well known by now, but for the anon asking for trans!Steve fic, I'd like to rec War, Children by Nonymos, one of my favorite fics in this fandom! Thank you for all your hard work!

thanks for the rec!

War, Children by Nonymos

After Bucky was released from the hospital, it only took him a couple of weeks to give up on himself. Difficult to believe in any kind of future when the simple act of staying alive was almost too big an effort.

Out the frosted window, across the street, there was a tiny homeless guy burrowing under an awning.

choose how we're made by AliuIce0814 trans Steve!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for writing in by [AliuIce0814](http://archiveofourown.org/users/AliuIce0814/pseuds/AliuIce0814)> It's no fun being a trans guy in 1938.

[thestuckylibrary]

I wanna rec "Unchain the birds from the sky" by Sororising. It's a modern!au with trans!Steve and it's really well written

oohh, thanks for the rec!

Unchain the birds from the sky by Sororising

“Jesus. I haven’t laughed like that in - well, in a long time.”

That made Steve smile cautiously, and Bucky decided there was no way he could wait any longer. He pulled Steve to the side of the street, turned to face him, and then ducked his head down so that their lips were only a few inches from touching.

“I had such a good time tonight,” Bucky said softly. “I really want to see you again, Steve.”

Steve’s eyes were wide, but he looked determined as hell. “Me too,” he said, and then he reached up and tangled his hand in Bucky’s hair, drawing them closer and closer together until finally they were kissing, only quick kisses in-between breaths, neither of them pushing for more, and Bucky realised that he never wanted this night to end.
