really random au thought. I was just thinking about Bucky meeting a modern Sam and finding out he's a closet organizer. He's so smitten that Bucky hires him on the spot. Only for Sam to find out he barely uses half a closet for his puny collection of tight t-shirts, jeans, and jackets. Sam tells him he has nothing to organize and he'll give Bucky his money back. Bucky tells him to take him to dinner instead.

I’m wanting some angst and jealousy, so, from Dancing on My Own:

Im giving it my all, but I’m not the guy you’re taking home

Oh, this is making me think of one of my absolute favourites things. Bucky pining and yearning and waiting oh so patiently for Sam. Until it’s just too much.

So no powers AU. Sam and Bucky have been friends since forever probably. Bucky fell years ago and has kept mostly a secret. As in, almost everyone but Sam knows. Because Bucky is just so obvious, and it’s there in the way he looks at Sam and says his name.

And maybe one day the whole group is out and Sam brings a date and they’re dancing and they leave early and Bucky is watching and it hurts. It just hurts so much.

So he starts to pull away and put some distance between them. Sam is so confused and mad and hurt and he keeps trying to talk to Bucky and gets no answer. Until one day he goes to Bucky’s place and confronts him and Bucky is just so tired and so over it he screams, “I’m in love with you and it fucking hurts.”

sambucky scene transcript!

----

On Sam, looking at Torres in the hospital, hearing footsteps come up behind him.

Sam: "It's a private room. Go away."

Bucky comes into view beside Sam.

Bucky: "Missed you too."

They look at each other. Bucky a soft smile. Sam looks away, a smile tugging the corner of his mouth.

Sam: "I hate to admit it...I'm glad you're here."

Sam looks back to Bucky and they both go in for a hug, Bucky closing his eyes in it. They part, stood side-by-side again.

Bucky: "You looked good out there on that 6 o'clock."

Sam shakes his head a bashful smile. Then sombre again.

Bucky: "But then I saw this."

Sam: "Doctors had to restart his heart. They don't know if..."

Sam closes his eyes.

Bucky: "This isn't your fault."

Sam: "It makes me think of Steve. How many alien invasions did he stop, again?"

Bucky: "Two."

Sam: "Two. Wow. What made me think I could follow that. I should have took the serum. Like Steve. Like you."

Bucky looking at Sam.

Bucky: "Why?"

Sam: "Because this is all starting to seem much bigger than me."

Sam turns to fully face Bucky.

Sam: "Ross, he asked me to restart the Avengers, Buck. But Joaquin's in here. Isaiah's in prison. And Sterns...I had him. I had Sterns. Right in my hands. And he got away. He damn near pushed us to the brink of war, because I wasn't—"

Sam emotionally cuts himself off.

Bucky: "Say what you need to say."

Sam looks down, then back to Bucky.

Sam: "Steve made a mistake."

Bucky: "No he didn't. He gave you that shield, not because you're the strongest, but because you're you. You think if you had that serum, you'd be able to protect all the people you care about. Steve had it, and he couldn't. You're a human being and you're doing your best. Steve gave people something to believe in, but you...you give them something to aspire to."

Sam squints at Bucky.

Sam: "Did your speech writers help you with that?"

Bucky: "They did, yeah, the ending, a little bit. Well, did you like it? Was it—?"

Sam: "No no, it was good. Solid...B plus."

Bucky: "Yeah. Emotional."

Sam: "Very. I felt it."

Bucky: "But just enough."

Sam: "Yeah."

Bucky: "Listen, I've gotta...catch a plane. I have a campaign fundraiser. It's so stupid."

They look over Torres, smiling. Bucky looks at Sam.

Bucky: "He's gonna be all right, man."

Sam looks at Bucky, shakes Bucky's hand.

Sam: "Thanks, Buck."

Bucky: "I love you, buddy."

Bucky cuffs Sam's arm and leaves; Sam nods, looking after him.

This would be so much fun to write. I wish my brain would word so I can write it. So many ships that I love would be perfect for this.

23 + sambucky 💛

23. wearing someone's clothes

In spite of his phone buzzing for the sixth time in the space of two minutes, Sam doesn't bother to check it. He's not slacking on the job: he's flanked by other superheroes, all of whom would also be getting notifications if something world-threatening were happening, and he's got AJ and Cass and Sarah in his immediate field of view.

The frenetic buzzing of six--wait, no, make that seven--text messages in no time at all can only be the work of one person, and that person is safely ensconced at the palace in Birnin Zana, undoubtedly being as much of a nuisance to his friends there as he is to Sam.

There's not much of a question as to what the text messages say, so Sam lets them roll in undisturbed, and makes sure that all of the cameras catch him emphatically not checking his phone. Instead he brings his attention to the students in front of him, crouching down to get a better look at the device that they built in their environmental science club.

He points to the receptacle at the top--it's a water filtration system--and asks the group how it works. They're very excited to answer, and when Sam asks specific questions about the mechanisms and how hard the process was, he watches them light up. He talks to them for so long that one of the PR people has to gently nudge him along to another group. Sam's phone periodically keeps buzzing away in his pocket, but he ignores it in favor of talking to all the students, doing his best to ask relevant questions and toss around jokes to make the shy ones laugh.

The event ends with plenty of pictures and plenty of questions about his own wings and how they work, and when it's all over, he feels the same pleasant exhaustion that he feels after a good workout or a mission where things went to plan. In the car on the way back to the house, all AJ and Cass can talk about is how cool all the Stark prototypes were, and Sam promises to let them mess around in his workshop tomorrow so they can do some inventing of their own.

It's not until he's back home that he remembers to even check his phone, putting it on the charger and laughing when the screen lights up to reveal thirty-two text messages from Bucky. The last one came in just a minute ago, so Sam flops down on the cozy armchair in the corner, Bucky's favorite place to curl up on nights when sleep is hard to come by, and calls him back.

The phone barely rings once before Bucky answers, skipping a greeting entirely so he can say, "You stole my sweater!"

Sam laughs. "Hi to you, too, baby."

There's a huff on the other end of the line. "Hi, sweetheart. I miss you, and also, you stole my sweater."

"Did I?" asks Sam. "How do you know that it didn't just find its way into my side of the dresser? You're not very careful about keeping our things separate, you know."

"Yeah, I do know," says Bucky. "That's why when I was packing for Wakanda, I asked you, 'Sam, love of my overlong life, man I would do anything for, have you seen my favorite green sweater?' And when you said no, I asked if you checked your side and you said that it wasn't in your sweater drawer, either."

That's because it was strategically placed in a laundry basket under half a dozen polo shirts that Bucky would never touch, Sam doesn't explain. "Sounds like it just got misplaced, and maybe someone shouldn't wait to pack for their trips until half an hour before they leave."

"Yeah?" asks Bucky. "Is that what it sounds like, and not like someone had their eye on my sweater and waited until I was distracted to snipe it and wear it to a public event where he knew I'd see him on TV?"

"Well that's just silly, Buck. Who would do that?"

"It's impossible to say," replies Bucky, making Sam laugh. Then, after a moment of quiet, he adds, "It looks good on you."

"Thank you," says Sam, and it shouldn't still make warmth rush to his cheeks when Bucky compliments him, but here he is. "Does that mean I get to keep it?"

Bucky snorts. "Let's not get carried away, Wilson."

"That's hardly getting carried away; we just established that I wear it better than you do."

"When did we establish that?" sputters Bucky.

"Are you saying it's not true?"

"Of course not," replies Bucky, without hesitation. "I saw how your arms looked in that thing; it's a fucking revelation. That's not the point."

"Ooh, I've never been called a revelation before," teases Sam.

He expects another grouchy reply, but instead, Bucky just says, "Yes, you have."

Sam actually stops and pulls his phone away from his face to make sure he's still connected. "What was that?"

"Nothing," says Bucky. "Tell me about this science thing that was so important you had to steal my sweater for it."

"Uh-uh," says Sam. "Nope. You tell me who's going around calling me a revelation."

"Sam."

"Bucky."

"You know who it was."

And yeah, Sam's good enough at putting together evidence to get to that conclusion, but he wants to hear it from Bucky all the same. "Tell me anyway?"

"All those times when you crashed into my life in all those different cities, you brought something with you. Do you remember that?"

As if Sam could ever forget. "My folks raised me never to show up empty handed, you know that."

It had been more than that, of course. He hadn't known how else to get Bucky to trust him, sure he was still struggling to trust himself most days. The whole point had been to make sure that Bucky was safe and whole, so the first time Sam managed to cross paths with him, he'd brought a loaf of bread and some strawberries from a roadside stall. Another time, it had been flowers, other times cups of coffee or books.

"Every time you showed up and forced me to take the thing you were giving me, I had to figure out how to be a person about it. I'd forgotten what it was to be annoyed or impatient or to want someone to stay even when you knew they couldn't."

Sam's breath catches in his throat a little, but Bucky doesn't stop.

"And then you would just talk at me for a couple minutes, and then you'd get your stuff and be on your way, and I'd have to find a safe place where I could face up to the fact that you knocked me on my ass with some wilted daisies that you bought for five euros. What else do you call someone who brings you a part of you that you thought you'd never see again?"

"What the fuck, Barnes?" breathes Sam, rasping a little because of the sudden lump in his throat.

"It's the truth!" says Bucky, suddenly defensive.

"Yeah, well, you couldn't have waited to share that truth until I could hear it in person? So I could kiss the shit out of you the way you deserve?"

"Oh," Bucky says quietly. "You know, I could--"

"Absolutely not. Whatever you're thinking, absolutely not. You just managed to earn the Wakandans' trust again; you're not stealing a talon fighter for a booty call."

"It wouldn't be a booty call, Samuel."

"It would a little bit be a booty call, and Ayo would never let you hear the end of it."

Bucky huffs again. "Fine," he grouses. "But I'm coming home as soon as the last repair is done on my arm."

"Good," says Sam. "That'll give me time to steal the rest of your sweaters."

"Sam," Bucky all but whines, and Sam laughs in response.

"Fine. I'll only take most of your sweaters, and maybe one of your hoodies. Just one."

"If I say no, you're just gonna steal more, aren't you?"

"Probably," says Sam, shrugging even though Bucky can't see him.

Bucky sighs. "Fine," he says. "We'll work out a trade when I get home."

"Well, hurry back," says Sam. "I'm kind of curious about your negotiating tactics."

There's a loud laugh from Bucky's end, and Sam can still hear his smile when he speaks. "Back home as soon as possible, sweetheart," says Bucky.

"Gonna hold you to that, baby," says Sam. Then, just as Bucky's about to hang up, he tacks on, "I'm stealing your maroon sweater next!"

When he ends the call, Bucky's only halfway through indignantly crying his name.

Since I’m sitting here waiting for my flight, I had some thoughts. I’ve read a few fics where Sam and Bucky have meet cutes in airplanes and a couple of meet uglies adjacent to flying (but trip related and then later they encounter in the airport), but what about meet uglies in the gate?

Maybe the two of them are waiting for a flight to New York or DC and while the two of them think damn that guy is hot something happens, maybe someone bumps into someone and gets a drink spilled all over or something of the sort. It’s an annoyance but then they sit in different areas away but somehow still in eye contact range lol

But then it comes to boarding and then it turns out they’re seated next to each other. What are the odds. Now they have to handle this flight and maybe they normally wouldn’t be as annoyed but they both had to deal with obstacles getting to the airport for different reasons so they just wanted to chill once they made it through security and on the plane.

So they kinda rub on each other verbally but also they really start getting into the banter so suddenly it’s not just like “ugh you got my shirt ruined and I didn’t pack one in my carryon!” But like “you like WHAT on your pizza??” Type vibes.

Anyways that leads to admitting things they wouldn’t normally say in a first time encounter with someone but it’s not like they’re seeing each other again, right? They’re on separate vacations and just happen to be on the same flight.

Wrong.

Now they’ve gotten their luggage and their separate ways but when their rides take them to the same place?

Looks like their vacations got a whole lot more interesting.

(Even funnier is if the place they’re meeting at is like Steve’s wedding or something and they’re groomsmen lol But any other variations of where they meet is fun!)

SamBucky idea where Bucky is on an undercover mission where he has to sit in on someone else's blind date but needs to make sure it goes poorly. Unfortunately for him, the blind date is with a man named Sam Wilson who's the most attractive man Bucky's ever seen. During the date, Sam makes it obvious he's into Bucky too and tries to make a move multiple times. When Bucky has to deny kissing Sam, the mission officially becomes impossible.

“how could i forget

the pair of gorgeous eyes

that i memorized like books?”

(da’s)

[livingincolorsagain]

omgg this sounds fun hehe made up title hm

'for i can't help falling in love with you'

add some brackets in to spice it up ykyk can i give another one here or do i send it in another ask um

'if these wings could fly'

also i think i accidentally caused a fight in a gc?? idk whats going on lmfao like this girl is fighting my friend for me apparently 💀

Okay, so for for i can't help falling in love with you, which is such a sambucky song btw, I would definitely go with them dancing, because there are very few things I love more than sambucky dancing.

So it’s a quiet night in, and Sam has music on as he cooks as usual, Bucky in another room, maybe doing the laundry, and this song comes on and Sam starts singing quietly along and Bucky just pauses and listens and takes it in, just how peaceful and comfortable and happy they are, here in their home and it’s almost overwhelming.

The song is almost over when he makes it to the kitchen and he immediately replays it and pulls Sam close for a dance.

As for if these wings could fly, maybe childhood best friends, then one of them moved away. They stayed in touch as much as they could but the distance was too much and eventually they grew apart.

Until years later when they find themselves working at the same place and it’s almost like no time has passed at all and they’re talking again and catching up and it’s all just so easy. Maybe the place they work at is at a whole another country and being with each other is a comfort, helps with the homesickness.

And in true romcom fashion, they fall in love.

send me a made-up fic title and i'll tell you what i would write to go with it

Canon: Do not fret. There's a dreamy happy ending-ish scene somewhere.

The fandom: So, our ship is canon, right?

Canon: -ish.

Meanwhile, the fanfic writers: Do not fret. There IS a dreamy happy ending scene because we create our own canon.

[oldfangirl81]

Person A: "Yeah, that tracks. They say owners and pets can behave alike."

Person B: "I thought it was lookalike?"

Person A: "Whatever. I'm just saying this dog fits you."

Person B: "I don't bite everything!"

Person A: "My ass says otherwise."

Person C: "That is more than I ever needed to know about your sex life."

Question for us Sambucky fans. In an alternative version of endgame, the other half gets snapped. Sam and Bucky end up in Vormir. (Instead of Clint and Nat)

How does it go?

Does Sam or Bucky die? Sam has a lot more to lose, but he knows losing bucky means losing steve, and captain America, Sam can't let Bucky fall again. Sam wouldn't.

Bucky has fought one war after another for 90 years. In his mind, Bucky is thinking he wants his peace. Maybe he'll find peace at the bottom of this canyon, that he didn't find in the alps. He refuses to let another innocent die because of him. He won't let Sam do it. He needs to make his amends, and heck, the world needs Sam more than him.

Who makes the sacrifice or would they both do it?
