Summary: Bucky and Sarah navigate their burgeoning relationship and remember how they used to be good at this relationship stuff.

AO3

“Sex can be good. Sex can be healthy. It can be fun.”

Dr. Raynor’s words still rang in Bucky’s head. The words she said to him after he had admitted that he wanted to start dating. That he wanted more intimate forms of human touch. That he was interested in exploring a sexual relationship with someone. Dr. Raynor had said those words to Bucky when he became doubtful of his own wishes. When he had said it was probably complicated in the current day and age. Her words came back to him as he walked hand-in-hand with Sarah up to her doorstep.

Sex was out of the question at that moment, he reminded himself. It was only their second official date. And Sarah probably wasn’t that interested in Bucky. She was probably just doing him a favor. Probably too sweet and kind to turn him down when he asked her out.

Bucky groaned internally and chided that voice in his head. Sarah may not like him as much as he liked her, but she liked him. He was not a charity case. She wanted to go out with him. She had agreed to the first date, and the second. She liked him. She did. She was still holding his hand – and staring at him under the porchlight, a somewhat amused grin on her pretty face.

He was so caught up in his thoughts that he almost missed the little squeeze Sarah gave his hand.

“I had a great time,” she said, biting her lip.

Damn it.

His gaze fell to her mouth. Soft and inviting. She was so close he could lean down and kiss her. He could. If she wanted to. If she wanted to kiss him as much as he wanted to kiss her.

“Bucky?” Sarah asked, drawing him from his thoughts. “You okay? What’s on your mind?”

“Sorry,” he replied, almost sheepish. “Just thinkin’ about how it sure would be nice to kiss you.”

“Oh,” said Sarah, her eyes wide and that adorable smile gracing her lips.

“I mean, if that’s something you’d be interested in,” Bucky proffered, growing a little flustered. He remembered he used to be good at this. “Sorry, Sarah. I used to be good at this.”

“Don’t be sorry,” she said, inching closer. “You’re so cute and doing way better than I am. I don’t think I was ever good at this.”

They both shared a coy smile.

“I find that hard to believe,” he said, relaxing more. “You’ve had me charmed since the moment I met you.”

Sarah giggled. Actually giggled, and Bucky felt his tummy do a hundred somersaults.

“Stop,” she said playfully, swatting at his chest. He caught her hand gently in his and drew her closer.

“You’re so goddamn adorable, Sarah Wilson,” Bucky said as he stared into her eyes.

“Yeah, yeah,” Sarah replied, as she brought Bucky’s hands to rest at her waist. She draped her arms over his shoulders. “You gonna keep talking or kiss me?”

Bucky let out a little laugh before he pressed his lips to Sarah’s. In a split second, he thought his mind might have gone blank. That he may have forgotten how to kiss someone. Instead, he was focused on their kiss. He was focused on Sarah. She was sweet. She tasted of the mulled wine they had shared at dinner. She was so sweet for him. She melted against his body. Parted her lips for his tongue and lapped at it with her own. Threaded her fingers through his hair. She was so, so sweet for him. She let out a little moan when his hand cupped her backside and pulled her nearer.

Bucky needed her to be closer. He wanted to be enveloped by her. He wanted to be swallowed up by her. He wanted her. He wanted Sarah. God, he wanted her so much. He wanted to give himself to her. He would do anything she wanted in that moment. Anything.

He would – he. He.

Damn it, he was beyond aroused. He was straining the front of his jeans. He had to pull away.

Bucky broke their kiss. Sarah’s eyes opened, her pupils blown wide from desire, and she pouted. She pouted and Bucky wanted to push her against the wall and kiss that pout right off of her perfect lips. Instead, he fought to catch his breath. He caressed the side of her face. He stared wordlessly into her pretty brown eyes.

“Why’d you stop?” she asked in a whisper, her gaze falling to his lips.

“I don’t know,” Bucky replied in earnest. “Needed to catch my breath.”

He ran his thumb under Sarah’s chin and tilted her head up ever so slightly.

“You are literally breathtaking, Sarah Wilson.”

She smiled and blessed him with a coy little giggle.

“Is that all o’ that nineteen-forties charm I read about?”

“No, ma’am,” Bucky replied. “Just the truth about you. You’re a real Dollface, Sarah. Pretty as a picture.”

Sarah smiled brightly and placed both hands to Bucky’s chest, before saying, “You’re not so bad yourself.”

They shared another kiss before they were interrupted by Sam swinging the front door open, with a trash bag in his hand.

“Sam!” Sarah admonished as Bucky instinctively stepped away from her.

“Shit, sorry,” Sam offered sheepishly. “Didn’t hear y’all out here. I’ll just – yeah. I’ll leave this and come back for it later.”

Sam placed the trash down and went back inside. Sarah’s face was warm, and Bucky looked kind of mortified.

“I should go,” said Bucky as he ran a hand through his hair. “That was awkward.”

“I’m sorry.”

“No! No, don’t be sorry. I’m sorry.”

“Raincheck?” asked Sarah, her pout returning.

“Absolutely,” said Bucky as he pressed a chaste kiss to her lips. “Goodnight, Sarah.”

Sarah smiled at him sweetly and said, “Night, Bucky.”

xXxXx

“Ain’t nothin’ wrong with sex. Ain’t nothin’ wrong with finding someone else after your husband’s gone. It’s a natural thing. Don’t you go and feel bad about it.”

Miss Pattie’s words rang in Sarah’s ears as she pushed the cart through the drug aisle of their local supermarket. AJ and Cass were skipping along ahead of her as she stopped at the section that housed the prophylactics. Sarah glanced around, self-conscious, as if she were a teenager, as she picked up a box of condoms and quickly examined it.

Oh Lord.

She hadn’t needed to do this in years. Why did it feel like a huge task? Was she jumping the gun? Sarah used to be good at this. She knew that she wanted to take things a step further with Bucky. She was certain that he wanted the same. But they hadn’t really spoken about it. About having sex.

Sarah hadn’t been with anyone since her late husband. She hadn’t wanted to be with anyone else until now. There was something about Bucky Barnes that endeared him to Sarah. Perhaps it was his caring nature. The way he was so honest about who he was, even if it hurt. How he was charming and funny. How he did not look at Sarah with that hint of pity that everyone else did, whether they meant to or not.

He just looked at her like he wanted her and everything that came with it.

Sarah smiled to herself at that thought. Bucky wanted her and she wanted him. She dropped a small box of condoms into the shopping cart and kept walking, biting back her smile of anticipation.

…..

Bucky was already at the Wilson residence while Sarah was getting AJ and Cass ready for their outing with Sam. Sam took the boys to a local old movie theatre at least once a month and they indulged in candy, popcorn, and films from yesteryear that the boys didn’t really have the chance to see. Tom Hanks’ Big was showing that evening and Sam was as excited as his nephews to be getting out of the house.

“Be good for Uncle Sam,” said Sarah as she fussed over her sons, fixing their clothing and straightening their glasses.

“Yes, ma’am,” both boys answered in unison.

“And Sam don’t go filling them up on too much sugar,” said Sarah as she moved on to fuss over Sam’s clothing by straightening his collar.  

Sam smoothed down Sarah’s hair, pressed a kiss to her brow, and said, “Yeah, yeah. Don’t you two go havin’ too much fun without us.”

Sam waggled his eyebrows at Sarah and earned himself a punch to his arm for his troubles.

…..

It was maddening, thought Sarah, as Bucky’s lips moved over her neck. The pleasant roughness of his stubble ghosted over by the heat of his breath and the softness of his lips. Eager pink lips pressed claiming kisses to Sarah’s skin. The swirl of his tongue tasting her and soothing where his teeth had been. Sarah’s head was spinning. Her sex was throbbing. Her body was alight. Her skin seared from Bucky’s attentions. He pulled her onto his lap, and she went without resistance. Straddling Bucky on the couch in the living room. Allowing him to suck love-bites onto her like she was a teenager again. She threaded her fingers through his hair and whispered incoherent praises that dissipated into the dimly lit night.

“You’re so beautiful, Sarah,” Bucky murmured close to her ear. “So goddamn beautiful.”

A delightful shiver quaked through her body and caused her breath to hitch. His lips moved from her ear, back to her neck, and then lower to her collarbone. Bucky’s right hand teetered at the hem of Sarah’s blouse before slipping underneath. His palm felt hot against her back. His hold was firm, keeping Sarah in place while he peppered kisses over her clavicle.

Sarah rolled her hips and brushed herself against Bucky’s arousal; his hardness pressed against where she was most soft. He let out a moan and ceased his attentions, resting his head against her shoulder.

She barely had the presence of mind to ask, “You okay?”

Bucky breathed against her skin and said, “Yeah. Yeah, just – shit.”

“Do you want to stop or?”

“No, Beautiful. I’m good. I just – I need a minute. Gettin’ too far ahead of myself. I need to calm down.”

“Oh,” said Sarah as she shifted from Bucky’s lap and slumped down next to him. “Sorry.”

“No, no. It’s not – it ain’t anything you’ve done wrong, Sarah,” he proffered sincerely as he reached over and took her hand. “I just. I feel like I’m gonna explode I want you so much.”

“You can have me,” she said, scarcely above a whisper. “You know that, right? I want you, too. You can have me if you want me.”

Bucky brought Sarah’s hand up to his lips and pressed a soft kiss to her knuckles.

“I do want you. I just wanna be able to take my time with you,” he admitted. “I haven’t been with anyone since – since before I went off to the War. I’m a little outta practice. I wanna show you a good time, Sarah. It’s what you deserve.”

Sarah nodded her head.

“I haven’t been with anyone since my late husband,” she explained; Bucky gave her hand a squeeze. “But I’m ready. I’m ready to be with you. Lord, I’m so ready. I want this. I want it with you, Bucky.”

He gave her a gentle smile and caressed her face.

“I want this with you, too,” he promised. “Just not like this. Not on your couch where Sam can burst in and catch us. I want to spend all night with you. Make love to you just how you need me to without us havin’ to watch the clock.  I – I just want it to be good for you.”

Sarah smiled, kissed his cheek, and then rested her head against his shoulder.

“I want it to be good for you, too,” she replied, holding his hand in hers.

“As long as it’s with you,” Bucky replied, giving her hand a squeeze. “I know it will be.”

…..

When Sam, AJ, and Cass returned home, they found Sarah and Bucky in the living room awash in the glow of light from the television. Bucky held a finger to his lips to ensure the Wilson brood were silent as they entered the space. His other hand was busy stroking Sarah’s hair as she slept soundly with her head resting in his lap.

 xXxXx

There was a lot of hustle and bustle happening around them as AJ showed Bucky videos on his device while Sarah explained to Cass again how long they would be gone for and when they’d be returning home. Sarah and Bucky were awaiting their flight to depart to Washington DC. Sam was being honored at a gala event, and his both of his plus ones decided to go with each other. Hence the reason Sarah, her children, Bucky, and her and Sam’s Titi were waiting. The boys were there to see their mother and Bucky off. They would be gone for a whole weekend. Sarah hadn’t had a whole weekend away from her children ever. She sat bouncing her knee nervously; Bucky placed a hand to her thigh in an attempt to calm her nerves.

She glanced at Bucky and gave him a sweet smile, before saying, “I’m just not used to sitting still.”

He smiled back at her and said, “I know.”

Then, he reached into his pocket to retrieve his wallet. He took out a crisp twenty-dollar bill and said, “Boys, why don’t you take your Ma to get something sweet to eat.”

Cass looked down at the note and said, “We’re gonna need more than that.”

Sarah went to chide her son, but Bucky waved it off and retrieved another twenty. Both boys took a bill each and then pulled their mother to her feet.

“Thank you,” said Sarah as she leaned down and pecked Bucky’s lips with hers before Cass and AJ dragged her away in search of candy.

“Oh, now aren’t your kids just the cutest,” said the elderly woman who was seated across from Bucky at the airport. “Your family is beautiful.”

He smiled widely at her (while not bothering to make the correction), looked out after Sarah and the boys, and said, “They sure are.”

The sense of pride that welled inside of Bucky’s chest at the notion of people thinking Sarah was his wife, and her sons were his sons, made Bucky feel all nice and warm. He could get used to it.

xXxXx

The gala went off without a hitch. Sam charmed everyone and spoke about the importance of hearing the voices of people whose voices have generally been silenced, erased, or ignored. Sarah was on his arm for most of the evening being introduced to so many people she couldn’t even remember their names. Bucky was nearby, alert, and ready for if something was to go wrong.

“You’re glaring,” said Sarah as she sidled up to Bucky; his face immediately brightened as he took her hand and appraised her outfit once again.

“And you’re stunning,” he said, pressing a soft kiss to her cheek.

“Don’t change the subject,” said Sarah as she leaned into Bucky’s embrace. “Why the long face?”

“Sorry,” he said.

“No need for apologies. If you’re not having a good time, we can leave.”

“Just not used to this many people in a social situation.”

“Okay, then, let’s leave.”

Bucky rubbed the back of his neck and said, “What about Sam?”

“Sam can take care of himself,” said Sarah with a smile. “Plus, Joaquín looks like he’s ready to fight anyone who even looks at Sam.”

They each let out a giggle at that observation before Bucky nodded his head and said, “Okay.”

…

Sarah and Bucky stood in the elevator, hand-in-hand, before Sarah spoke up.

“So, my room or yours?”

Bucky’s skin flushed warm. He knew that they had spoken about spending the night together, he just couldn’t believe they were so close to it all happening.

“Yours,” he replied, giving her knuckles a kiss. “I’ll just – ah, go back to my room first to get outta this goddamn penguin suit.”

“Okay,” said Sarah as she peered at their reflection in the mirrored panel. “You look great, though.”

Bucky smiled and said, “You may have mentioned it once or twice. But you, wow. You’re beautiful.”

“You’re biased.”

“Can you blame me?”

The elevator dinged to interrupt their flirting and let them know they had arrived on their floor. Bucky gestured for Sarah to exit first, and followed behind her.

“I’m gonna take a shower,” said Sarah before handing Bucky her spare key. “See you soon.”

“Yeah,” he replied before pressing a kiss to her cheek. “Soon.”

…..

Sarah sat on top of the bed with butterflies swooping around inside of her tummy. She didn’t know why she was feeling so nervous. She and Bucky had been dating for a while. Sure, they hadn’t found the time to take their intimacy to the next level, but they had still shared intimate moments.

Sarah was about to bite her thumbnail when she heard the soft rapping at her door. Her heart beat faster in her chest and her stomach did a few more flips. She slid from the bed and padded over to the door. When she opened it, Bucky was standing there wearing a confident smile. He made her feel at ease. They shared a quick kiss before she let him in and closed the door behind him.

“You look lovely,” said Bucky as he made his way over to the chair and sat down.

“Thank you,” she replied, feeling somewhat giddy.

“Nice shower?”

“Oh, yeah. The water pressure,” said Sarah with a wide beam as she sat on the bed. “Made me wanna cry it was so good.”

Bucky let out a little chortle and then smiled at Sarah. He placed his hands in his lap and said, “Good. I’m glad.”

Sarah dipped her head and looked up at Bucky through her pretty lashes as she tucked a stray twist behind her ear. He kept his eyes on her and Sarah’s skin felt warm from Bucky’s gaze.

“So,” she said, biting her lip.

“So,” he replied, staring into her soul.

“You gonna move a little closer or?”

“Absolutely,” Bucky replied as he stood and made his way over to where Sarah was seated.

She turned to face him, and he brought his hand up to sweep her hair away from her face.

“Hey,” Bucky whispered.

“Hey,” Sarah replied, just as softly.

“You sure you’re ready to do this?” asked Bucky while stroking the side of Sarah’s face.

“I’m sure,” she replied as she turned to place a kiss to Bucky’s palm. “Are you?”

“Yes,” he said before leaning in to peck a kiss to her lips. “I’m certain.”

…..

The dim lighting of the room cast shadows over Sarah and Bucky’s forms. They lay together in the soft light caressing one another. Lips pressed firmly together, eager, and full of need. Warm breath a sweet mélange against heated skin. Fingers testing and teasing; stripping garments from one another’s pliant bodies. Limbs tangled together. Smiles in between kisses.

Bucky kissed along Sarah’s neck, sucking love-bites as he went. She tilted her head to the side to afford him better access. He sucked her earlobe into his mouth, and she let out a moan. He cursed out loud at the sound that escaped her lips. They shared another kiss, claiming and somewhat desperate. Bucky shifted so that he was hovering over Sarah; his tags swung and tapped against her chin.

“Sorry,” said a breathless Bucky as he pecked a kiss to her chin and then pushed back so that he was kneeling.

“It’s okay,” Sarah replied as she leaned up on her elbows and let her gaze roam over Bucky’s bare chest and abs; she watched him remove the chain which held his tags and then place them aside. “You’re so fine.”

“Uh?”

“You,” said Sarah, reaching her hand out to press against Bucky’s chest. “You’re so fine I cannot even deal.”

He let out a little coy laugh and said, “Sugar, you’re one to talk.  I mean, look at you: Fuckin’ beautiful.”

Bucky gestured towards Sarah, laid out and gorgeous in her nightdress. She blessed him with a smile before he leaned down and covered her body with his. Their kiss was deep, slow, and sensuous. Sarah’s hands found their way into Bucky’s short hair. She gripped tightly as he kissed his way from her lips to her neck and then further down.

Bucky pulled the thin strap of Sarah’s nightdress down off of her shoulder and pressed his lips to her collarbone before cupping her breast with his right hand. He stopped to take in the sight of Sarah for a brief moment, admiring the way their contrasting skin tones looked strikingly gorgeous together.

“You’re perfect, Sarah,” Bucky whispered before kissing her once more. “So perfect.”

…..

Sarah’s head was swimming from the way it felt to have Bucky’s weight on top of her; his lips and tongue lapping at her; his hands and fingers teasing her. If it had been a long while since Bucky had done anything like that, she could not tell. His thumb was strumming her sensitive bud as he dipped his fingers in and out of her swollen folds. Sarah gripped Bucky’s forearm as she felt heat swirl around her center.

“Hmmm,” she moaned as Bucky brought her closer to her climax.

He smiled and pressed a kiss to her jaw before continuing his attentions. Bucky withdrew his fingers and rubbed Sarah’s nectar into her pulsing clit. She bucked her hips and came with a loud moan and shaky breath.

…..

Bucky had barely let Sarah come down from the highs of her orgasm before he fervently rubbed out another. Her body was shaking with pleasure. He was almost vibrating himself with anticipation and need. Sarah caught her breath and then caught Bucky’s lips in a messy kiss. She reached between their bodies and took hold of his straining arousal; giving him a few strokes up and down his length.

“Fuck,” Bucky breathed out against Sarah’s lips. “Sugarplum, that’s so – ah, so good.”

“I want you,” she replied, strumming him deftly. “Want you so bad.”

“I want you, too,” said Bucky as they shared another messy kiss. “Just gotta – fuck, hold on. Sar, hold on, Baby.”

Sarah let out a little whine as Bucky drew back. She gave him a pouty look that almost made him come right then and there. He found the condom that he had placed on the bed, tore it open, and proceeded to roll it down his length. Sarah watched him all the while, her eyes dark with desire.

Bucky settled in between her legs and said, “You ready?”

“Yeah,” said Sarah, parting her thighs further for him.

Bucky kissed the corner of Sarah’s mouth and lined himself up at her entrance. He stared into her eyes as he slid his hard thickness into her warm softness. They each let out a pleasured moan as Bucky’s length was fully enveloped by Sarah’s heat.

“Is that okay?” asked Bucky, fighting to keep his eyes open.

“Yes,” Sarah replied. “It’s good, Buck. So good.”

They kissed once more before Bucky began to roll his hips, slipping and out, over and over again. Sarah wrapped her legs around his waist and allowed herself to grow accustomed to the sensation of being filled by him and his virile length. Bucky relished in the glide of his hardness being sheathed by Sarah’s tightness. She clenched around him and he all but growled into her parted lips.

“Sarah,” he whispered, voice low and laced with desire. “God, Sarah.”

Bucky’s thrusts grew more fervent, urged on by his lover’s pleasured cries as he struck against her spot. Sarah dug her fingernails into Bucky’s back as she held him, wanting more and more from him. He surrendered himself and gave Sarah what she wanted. Bucky gave her what she needed: Deep strokes and attentive kisses. Whispered praise and carnal delights.

Time seemed to fall away as the pair of lovers gave and received pleasure. As they chased their release and focused their attentions on the other. Despite the coolness of the room, both Sarah and Bucky were covered in a sheen of sweat. Their body heat radiating from each other. Their breaths warming their skin.

Bucky pressed a claiming kiss to Sarah’s lips as he rammed himself into her with urgency. He could feel his release quickly approaching. She felt too good. She felt unreal. He wanted her to feel all of the goodness that he was feeling in that moment. He reached his hand down to her pulsing bud and stroked it with his thumb. After a beat, Sarah let out a delighted cry and clenched around him. Bucky hooked her leg up and drove himself deeper.

“Oh, God. Right there,” said Sarah as she closed her eyes. “Right. There.”

Bucky continued his ministrations, drawing both himself and Sarah nearer to their climax. Bucky’s deft thrusts brought Sarah to the height of her pleasure. She let out a breathy moan as she reached her orgasm. Bucky kissed her lips and fucked her through it. His climax followed soon thereafter. They shared another kiss, and the held one another while letting out the most joyful, satiated laughs.

“Oh my God,” said Sarah as she fought to catch her breath.

“My thoughts exactly,” Bucky replied, as he withdrew himself, discarded the condom, and pulled Sarah into hug.

“Why did we wait so long to do that?” asked Sarah as she ran her hand over Bucky’s sweat-covered chest.

“I don’t know,” he replied, pressing a kiss to thee top of her head. “Somethin’ about worrying if we would still be ‘good’ at it.”

“Well, you were amazing,” said Sarah as she nuzzled closer to Bucky.

“You were mind-blowing,” said Bucky while he threaded their fingers together. “Perfect.”

…..

Sarah used to be good at this. She remembered as much. What she maybe didn’t realize was that she would get another chance at it. As she laid next to the man who she could see herself having a real second chance with, she realized it was better than good. It was great. Beautiful Bucky. Kind, caring, protective Bucky. She trusted him with her body, her heart, and her soul.

Bucky used to be good at this. He remembered as much. What he didn’t remember was it feeling that good. Great, actually. How great it felt to be there with Sarah, whom he would give everything to. Whatever it is that she wanted. His beautiful Sarah. His sweet, sweet Sarah, who could take his body and his heart. His lovely Sarah, who could have his soul.

They both used to be good at this, but now they know that they are great together.

i figured i would also post this on tumblr for anyone who has been following along/is interested. climbed the self-imposed hill & wrote more of my beloved "ella enchanted meets the witcher meets shrek meets princess and the diaries” au :)

part 1

part 2

title: try a little tenderness

Sarah’s decided it’s cosmic injustice.

Can’t be anything else. She mostly abides by the law. She gives to her neighbors and raises her sons with manners. She washes her dishes by hand and hauls fish for a living in plain yellow skirts, and when the sun is high in the sky, she sweats buckets like any regular girl. Has she set out into the wide world looking for adventure? Nope. Has she fooled with de-aging spells, or begged some fae fortune teller to pretty her up? Nuh-uh. She is nor-mal . Mundane, actually. Sarah barely even takes the Lord’s name in vain.

“Sweet Jesus,” Sarah says, embarrassingly out loud considering the circumstances.

“Mmmhmm,” says a very pregnant Marlene Franklin, sipping noisily from her lemonade through one of those Friar Joe’s Kingdom Market wooden fast food straws and rocking back and forth a little on the porch swing. Marlene is the neighbour’s daughter and has been for the last ten years. Sarah loves her in the way you do those people whose friendship is the only thing giving sense to the fact that you are friends; for all her fuss and frills, Marlene has seen Sarah through some shit. She continues, “You only just noticing? I’ve been enjoying the view all morning.”

Bookmarker's Notes:

Lovely series that very much fits the tone set by Bucky and Sarah flirting in the Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and stays in the fanfic aesthetic rather than Romance Novel Tropes. Lots of family, Louisiana settings, family and community, kids, intriguing backstory for Sarah, some time spent in Wakanda. Still a WIP but very satisfying.

Note that the link is to Page 2 of the collection, which is sorted latest-first.

[jbarneswilson]

my favorite fic of yours is stevie's mom has got it going on! I love how you're able to convey that sweet crush and steve and bucky's friendship to the eventual adult romance with sarah (wilson)!

and also I love how something so great came out of the horrible annoying comments of those people saying that bucky only cares about sarah because of his bff's mom's name 🙄

but since the other anon mentioned this one I also wanna mention "not too tired" lol perfect combination of horny and funny and sweet! overall I really love your writing and im so happy to have you and your writing in the sarahbucky fandom 💜💜💜

hi, nonnie!! thank you so very much for sending this ask! i had crafted a lovely response to you and was switching back to the tumblr app to add a link at the bottom and it ate my response (excellent work, staff, just amazing) so hopefully this one is just as good

i really enjoyed writing that youthful crush on someone you can’t have and getting to explore the boys’ prewar friendship the tying those threads into sarah and bucky’s present

as irritating as it was to read those cold ass takes, i am kind of grateful people were so loud and wrong because they inspired one of my favorite fics i’ve ever written

oh man, not too tired was fun to write! i enjoy some writing the intense smut but sometimes it’s nice to do some playful smut, too

oh gosh, thank you so much for saying that. i’m really happy to know my writing is being enjoyed by others. i write it for myself but i share it so other people can read it and every time someone takes time out of their day to tell me they like my fic it feels so special.

tell me fave fic of mine

Vintage SarahBucky

Sarah's family is not poor nor are they dirt rich like those White folks. Papa Wilson has a charter service and a few fishing boats hopefully 1940s Louisiana lets Black businesses run if not thrive. The Wilsons are the backbone of the community and do everything to spread their good fortune around.

Sarah Wilson is a young widow with 2 small boys. Her husband was walking home when racism struck. The whole community came together and helped the young grief stricken family out. Sam Wilson's got some White friends up North but even they couldn't or wouldn't get involved get justice.

Sam Wilson comes home from WWI and went to partner with his Yankee White friends. He's studying an emerging field called psychology with path breaking scientists like Dr. Bruce Banner, etc.

Then there's Bucky. There's not much known about him except Captain Steve Rogers rescued his best friend since childhood from the trenches. Bucky has no memories of his time in the War except for nightmares.

Mz. Sarah's now managing their fishing business with the KKK doing their best to run the whole community off their legally owned land (and docks).

Sam Wilson comes down to help out, Bucky comes with him...

I wouldn't know how to actually flesh out this kind of story because it really need a whole load of historic perspective.

Anyone who wants to go ahead and run with this idea.

Hey fellow white stucky and/or sambucky fans...

... it looks increasingly like whenever Cap 4 or tfaws season 2 finally happen, we may be getting canon sarahbucky. Here are some reasons why this is actually fricking awesome and why I think we should be really, ideally vocally supportive of this even if we’re not shipping it in fandom terms:-

- in terms of diverse representation, this would be every bit as powerful and important as Bucky being part of a queer relationship. Sarah is a (beautiful) working-class, dark-skinned Black single mother played by an actor in her early 40s. People like her do not in general get anything like sufficient representation, let alone in sweet romances with established, well-loved characters. Having her coupled with a white man with the level of popularity of Bucky would be A Big Fricking Deal. We don’t get cheated of Bucky being involved in some awesome representation happening in the MCU here, we just get a different kind. I for one am here for this. :-)

- Sarah Wilson is one of the loveliest, sweetest, most brilliant characters in the MCU, and Adepero Oduye plays her beautifully. She’s a fricking *delight*, and she deserves so much happiness! As of course does Bucky. And I think they could make each other happy. :-) He’d be an awesome person to be in AJ and Cass’s lives. He seems so at home in Delacroix! He could help with her business when not off superheroing. He could help AJ and Cass with their history homework. Imagine his humour and his protectiveness and his long-honed carer skills going into step-parenting. :-)

- and Bucky dating (and maybe even one day marrying) Sam’s sister would be ABSOLUTELY SUPERB and have so much potential for both sweetness and comedy in Sam’s relationship with Bucky. :-) It wouldn’t bring them together romantically, but it would bring them even closer together. Imagine Sam’s speech at the wedding! Omg. <3

- getting together with Sarah would not make Bucky any less bi! <3 I mean, that’s kind of how being bi works. ;-) And Marvel can deny it as much as they like, but Sebastian plays Bucky as bi (whether deliberately/consciously or otherwise) and I don’t imagine that’s going to stop. :-) It also wouldn’t rule out future acknowledgement of Bucky’ biness if that does finally happen. All of us who’ve been in relationships with people who share at least one attractee gender in common know how fun it can be to thirst over pretty people with your partner. I’m imagining Sarah and Bucky dude-watching together and then giggling and kissing and it is an incredibly happy thought. :-)

- the MCU is generally terrible at writing canon romantic relationships (with a couple of honourable exceptions, eg T’Challa x Nakia who are wonderful). Whereas in just the few seconds of Bucky x Sarah interractions we’ve had so far, they are already fricking *adorable* together. The cute smiles! The mixture of confidence and shyness! So good. <3

- this is so so important: Bucky and Sarah being together would mean a huge amount to a lot of Black fans, especially Black women fans. <3 Like, honestly I would be a supporter of sarahbucky becoming canon even if this was the only thing about the ship that I like! <3 (And it is not. :-) )

- CW abuse/racism mention: if it does become canon, Adepero Oduye is likely to get some horrible shit on social media from racist fans, including racists who will use a mask of being apparently pro-lgbtqia+/supporting stucky as a cover for their actions. I haven’t checked her social media stuff (I need to find and follow her!) but I’d be unsurprised if this is already happening. :-( There may also be some extra shit from some the same people against the already much-hassled Sebastian Stan for it. We need to make absolutely damn sure that we’re not making things easier for the people who are going to hate sarahbucky for the grossest of reasons.

Fundamentally this: we were never going to get canon stucky or canon sambucky. It’s annoying, and it’s kind of pathetic that Disney/Marvel are so averse to lgbt+ rep in general. But there it is, and it sure as anything isn’t Sebastian’s or Adepero’s fault that it is so (nor indeed, I suspect, Malcolm Spellman’s). And it’s incredibly unlikely that any of the nonsense that was Endgame is going to get undone now. Canon’s stuck with it, alas. :-/ But what that also means is this: fully canon sarahbucky would take absolutely nothing from stucky fans at least that we still had to lose. Instead, it would give us new possibilities and storylines for Bucky to grow, to be loved, and to be his awesome and protective and loving and loyal self.

So, yeah. None of us are obliged to ship sarahbucky! In fandom terms, I don’t, really. Still loyal to and adoring stucky, primarily, and I love sambucky (and the stevebuckysam OT3) as well.

But within canon I would be so so delighted if sarahbucky happens, and I love Sebastian even more than I already did for so blatantly shipping it. :-) And we can support and uphold this ship if it becomes canon without actually shipping it ourselves, and make sure that we call our racists within our own ship communities. And as far as we can, we should.

And, well. Bucky’s my favourite character and I want him to be happy. So. :-)

So this has been bothering me for weeks but i haven’t gotten the time to rant about it. I was always on the Sarah Wilson defense squad but now I’m throwing my own hat into the mix.

Basically I saw this tiktok that said Marvel was queerbaiting us with Sam and Bucky (Think what you will about it but that's not the point rn) that Sam conveniently had a sibling of the opposite gender to be Buck’s love interest,,,, firstly they didn’t even become cannon at the end of the series so i don’t understand where this came from?. Secondly she’s so much fucking more than that what?! Sarah’s role in fatws is to be a look into how the blip affected normal everyday people. And through her we see what SAM values most. Family. I can’t find the words to express what she represents to give it justice but one thing I’m going to make fucking clear is that she’s so important to the themes and heart of fatws. 

also god damnit don’t use her to prove marvel is straightwashing shit. Sarah’s more than just a female Sam. She lost most of her family. Her husband. Raised two amazing sons in what basically was a post apocalyptic world and did a damn good job. AND ran a business all by herself on top of that. Put some respect next time you say Sarah Wilsons name.

I’m not done yet no. Just cause sarahbucky is a “Straight ship” or whatever doesn’t devalue it’s importance. Poc especially black women were all saying how amazing it was seeing a dark skinned black woman being portrayed as attractive. Bucky flirting with her wasn’t marvel shoving a romance down our throats it was us getting a glimpse of the absolute lady’s man he was in tfa. He saw a beautiful woman and acted appropriately.

 Fuck i was a sambucky shipper since civil war and i still am BUT I love sarahbucky. You can ship both and want both to have the potential to become cannon. You don’t need to erase everything Sarah is to justify it. Sarah wasn’t made to be a “Female sam” so Sambuxky can become cannon with 0 gayness. Sarah isn’t some way for Bucky to flirt with Sam through her (He was genuinely flirting with her did you not see the heart eyes) She’s more than a love interest and you shall treat her with the respect she deserves.

I am curious. With our show turning a year old, I was wondering if Spellman, Marvel or Disney ever tell us why they didn't release the other cuts from the show ? They released Zemo dancing for an hour but nothing else. Where are the bloopers? The SarahBucky cuts ? I'm pretty sure we got some more Dam goodness and SamBucky moments and so much more. Cap4 is so far away and nothing in those cuts can be too spoilery. I just don't understand why they won't release anything. Maybe you know or others in the fandom know the answer.

Hi Anon!!! This has been driving me crazy and I don't know the answer... Anybody has an idea? As far as I know, the writers or director haven't said anything about the cut scenes and I want to see them so bad!

I remember Danny Ramirez said there was a scene of Sam and Joaquin dancing..And we might never get to see it??? Why the torture?

It's really werid seeing ther MCU shows or movies getting their deleted scenes and we're just waiting ...

For the Sarah & Bucky scenes: I think they didn't release the Sarah/Bucky scenes because they might want to keep them for later, like maybe in Cap 4, if Sarah and Bucky are a couple, they might use those scenes as flashbacks to show how their romance started? I hope that's the plan and we'll get to ssee them somehow.

For the scenes between Sam & Bucky:I think they didn't release the Sam and Bucky scenes for similar reason...it's my opinion that the scenes in the trailer were much more romantic and "couply"

"God, I hate you"==> A lot of people pointed how the sound didn't match the scene where Sam and Bucky were walking in the trailer, so it was probably removed from another scene. If you ask me Bucky sounded a little out of breath when he said it, maybe like he was lying down. Maybe after the rolling in the field scene? Can you imagine Bucky saying those words while lsing on top of Sam?? Not the same effect at all.

"People need something to get behind"==> For this one they chose a different direction, because I think it was more impactful to have Sam open the suitcase at the end of episode 5, but they could have realiezed the scene either way...??? Shang Chi released an alternate scene with a totally different outcome for one of the side characters so I don't see why they wouldn't show the one were Bucky gives Sam a pep talk; It makes me thing that the scene was too much into husband mode? But that's my fan theory lol, maybe they just didn't want to bother.

"We look damn good"==> How does someone even fit that sentence into a normal conversation hahaha

I really don't know, maybe they want to use some of the scenes for later, maybe they think some of the scenes will alter the storyline too much, or maybe they just don't care???

Ramblings on SamBucky and SarahBucky

1. As a queer POC in a biracial relationship, SamBucky becoming canon would be an absolute dream for me. 😍😩😭🙌🏼 I’ve never cared about a potential MCU ship this much before. HOWEVER, I do understand that the chances of this ship actually sailing are slim to none. So, I’m just happy to be here, lurking on Tumblr and AO3 for SamBucky content along with Stackie content.

2. If Marvel REALLY wanted to, it wouldn’t be hard for them to make Sam and/or Bucky queer. Sam could easily be gay and the only confirmation we would need for that is a simple comment from Sam or Sarah about an ex boyfriend etc. Bucky could so so easily be bi and all that would take is for him to say that when he tried the dating apps both men and women had so many tiger photos and he is so confused by that or something. Making these characters queer wouldn’t take a lot of hard work in terms of writing and it wouldn’t take more than several seconds of screen time.

3. I realize that it is unlikely that the MCU will offer us the kind of queer representation we hope for. Generally, queer stories in Hollywood are about coming out trauma or some other big narrative and just never something simple and happy. The best queer stories I’ve ever seen were the ones where no one was forced to talk about it - someone was just bi, and there was nothing to discuss. They are just living their life. That’s what I wish queer representation was in Hollywood on most days, but it isn’t. Not to say that our struggles should be erased, but we also just deserve some FLUFF you know? Unfortunately, I don’t expect that Marvel is working towards queer representation with any kind of real purpose that way. Sure, they intend to introduce a gay character in an upcoming movie, but the fact that it had to be announced and discussed and is some BIG DEAL is what I dislike about the portrayal of queerness in media. As it is, they are only just coming around to decent gender and racial representation. So better queer representation will unfortunately take some more time.

4. Personally speaking, even if no major queer ships became canon in the MCU, having some of the main heroes actually just BE queer in canon would be MORE than enough for me rn tbh. 🤞🏼

5. I must admit that my interest in SamBucky actually stemmed from the clear chemistry between Stackie. Anthony and Sebastian have SO MUCH vibrant joy, love and respect between them that I started to see so many possibilities for SamBucky. This means that I can also easily understand how some people don’t see any romantic undertones in SamBucky at all. I was someone that didn’t really see many romantic undertones in Stucky (though I would have been FULLY onboard of it becoming canon). What I saw there was deep friendship. So, I know that what I see in SamBucky now could just be something I’m projecting based on what I see between the actual actors. I’m not denying that there is some queer coding in SamBucky canon or Stucky canon. But sometimes I feel like those moments in most of the fan favourite ships are just fan service crumbs and nothing else. And even then, I think some of it might even be done without any real intentions to queer code. It could all just be a simple nod to the BROMANCE, if you will.

6. Marvel has no real excuses for not making Bucky bi/pan, but I see how they might actually struggle with making Sam queer. Our new Captain America being a black man is something complicated in and of itself as shown in TFATWS. Making him queer on top of that would make his acceptance by the general public as the new Cap vastly more complicated, even within the MCU universe (at least in the eyes of the people creating this universe). It can obviously be done, but I don’t see that Marvel would believe they can go there with ease. In fact, they might even think that trying to go there might switch the narrative even more from Sam’s heroics to his personal life, which really isn’t what the MCU is about. For this reason, even if Bucky becomes canon bi, I don’t think Sam will ever really be canon gay/bi/pan, making the SamBucky ship something that will never realistically sail. 🥺💔

7. Being realistic (and sad 😔) about SamBucky never actually having a chance of happening in canon brings me to SarahBucky - another beautiful chance for a biracial ship. One that can very easily happen (literally, it only took one smile and hello for this ship to take off because of the blatant heteronormativity in media - le sigh). At least if this ship sailed though, there will be SOME beautiful biracial romance representation AND it would be hella comedic when Sam and Bucky become in-laws 😂. Think of the potential there. Seriously, just give it a minute.

8. I know it’s TOTALLY unfair that there could be so much love and care between two male or two female characters and still a hetero relationship with just one vague moment has infinitely better chances of becoming canon. But that’s unfortunately where we are still, and hating on SarahBucky won’t fix that. SamBucky is incredibly unlikely to happen (though I will always keep my fingers crossed), so if SarahBucky has any chance to actually happen, we shouldn’t get angry about it and boo it. At least I’m not going to. Supporting the chance to see a new biracial ship on screen, especially one with a beautiful strong-willed dark skinned woman and a mother of two, is a good thing. And personally, I support at least one of the Wilsons to get that 106 year old dick! 😉

Look, I’d give every penny in my bank account to get a SarahBucky Lovebirds style movie. Obviously, the crime would be more high profile but like, could you imagine? Bucky wanting to protect Sarah. Sarah charming the pants off of a few bad guys and getting answers and Bucky being in awe. Sarah speaking French and creole and just being straight amazing. Us getting to see more of Bucky’s spy skills. The romance aspect of it. To watch them *in love* rather than just flirting. And god Sebastian Stan would be phenomenal in a rom-com style superhero movie.

Oh my god it would be everything

(If you haven’t seen Lovebirds, the synopsis is

On the brink of breaking up, a couple gets unintentionally embroiled in a bizarre murder mystery. As they get closer to clearing their names and solving the case, they need to figure out how they, and their relationship, can survive the night.)

The synopsis sounds really dark but the movie is funny as shit.

Up the stakes of the baddies and you’re Golden. Marvel, lemme know if you’re hiring.

[redwingsupportgroup]

i know sambucky is never gonna happen and i'll just continue to ship that for fun. so i really really hope sarahxbucky does happen. and i honestly wouldn't be opposed to sharonxsam, though i'd prefer they bring back simone missick. what do you think are the chances?

hey anon! it's like I said before, there's not one mcu hero that isn't/wasn't in a hetro relationship, besides these two, but mostly because they were in the back. but now, especially after the bi and romance drama that erupted lately, it's almost a must to give them relationships with female love interests, no question there.

sarahbucky are cute, but if they were going to make them canon in the next movie, I wish we could get a bit more of them in the beginning then get them together. I feel if they just got them together based on the little we've seen, it would be like cheating, because it's a good ground for something but we need to see more, but that's my personal opinion.

sahron and sam are cute but I feel like sharon deserves to be out of the cap loop, and I don't think she would be down to getting with anyone right now, being the queen of the lands of criminals and bringing the US government down and all.

as for misty coming back, or coming to Capvers at all would be the best decision ever, besides her being a love interest to sam or not, she would be an amazing feature to Sam's world, she's too badass and intelligent to just stay in the comics. but mcu are struggling to bring sam himself back lol, let alone bring a black superhero female into it all, so I try not put my hopes up about it, because I know I'll be mostly disappointed.

I think sam will just have someone like Leah, he would flirt a bit, then go on about his mission and maybe go see her by the end, idk. but I know sambucky won't be left available and open after all that went down after tfatws, especially that it reached media, the actors, director and writers.

but anon, just like you said, shipping is fun and as long as the girls aren't bullied and hated, then shipping sambucky peacefully and regardless of canon shouldn't be a problem, they have a very solid foundation and that won't go away because one of them, or both, will get a lovely gf.

[egcdeath]

honest to god, when steve rogers went back in time after endgame, how did you feel about it?

i was honestly very surprised. it really was strange to me that he would work so hard to time travel and bring everyone back (especially his friends) only to turn around and leave them a little later??? and bucky just got untraumatized and steve dipped. and steve gave sam the shield without thinking about how it would impact his life. and just dipped. i really don't like his ending at all.

even if you ignore all of the relationship aspects of his ending, the choice to go back in time completely ruins his arc??? steve's whole thing was about learning how to adjust to a new century, and leave the past in the past. but the russo brothers just threw it all away for a woman that steve kissed once.

i think i just have a problem with the way romances in the mcu are treated period because they're always rushed and there's never any good build up, and every relationship feels awkward, forced, or misogynistic. at this point the only actual good established relationship is between a traumatized witch and her robot & the only good tensions that could potentially lead to a romance is sarah and bucky and they said like three words to each other (don't be a wimp marvel, let sarahbucky happen!!!)

okay i have gone on far too long. i'll stop now. i just have... thoughts about endgame.
