Till The End Of The Line

Steve was still not used to his new body.. despite it being months later. He still had moments where he woke up and expected to be 90 pounds and sick as a dog. Instead he woke up in his bunk and nearly banged his head on the rack. Today was quite important they’d gotten intel about Armin Zola’s trip back to Switzerland and they needed to capture the man. It would help them turn the tide of the war further into their favor. The man was obviously the scientific brain behind HYDRA.

He had a bad feeling about the mission, but without evidence this was the best chance they had to snatch the Swiss man. The beginning of the mission went well, till him and Bucky got separated. When the train door slammed it slammed with all the finality of fate. He fought to get back to and had just barely manage to find Bucky when there was an explosion. It rocked the train and them with it.

Steve did his best to hold onto the crumbling side of the train, and reach for Bucky’s hand. His shield falling into the train as the metal that made up the train crunched and rolled under his fingers. He could feel it giving. Felt his palm slick up with sweat. Everything happened in slow motion.

The metal gave away, Bucky was yelling but all he heard was his blood rushing through his veins. Pounding in his ears. Blue eyes widened in fear, as his grasp failed. The train rocking with the pressure of rumbling over the mountain and he

Steve frowned at Bucky, wondering if his friend realized he had a bit of a tell.. when he lied. “You say that but I was so not fine after the serum.. and they hurt you.” It was the first time he’d admitted that the serum had been somewhat unpleasant honestly.

@heroesfromtheashes - liked for a Howling Commandos starter

"Don't look at me like that. There is nothing to worry about. I'm fine." Bucky lied, forcing a smile to appear on his face as he did. Though the truth was that he wasn't fine, didn't feel fine... Ever since what had happened at that Hydra factory he felt different in a way he couldn't quite explain and quite frankly, that constant burning sensation in his veins.

The holidays are always a tricky time of year. No one has a perfect family, and even if that problem-free family exists, you bet even they have some trouble around the holidays. You know from experience that the holiday season brings out the worst in people, so when Bucky and Steve offered to have a holiday celebration with just the three of you, you couldn’t pass it up.

You’d gone just a little overboard with their presents, but how could you not? The two of them treat you better than anyone else in your life, and you just want to show them you’re thankful.

So now, as you sit in the backseat of the car, watching the world fly by, you’re thankful that the world brought the three of you together.

You’d been working at the Tower for some time before you ever crossed paths with Captain America and his friend, the Winter Soldier. Honestly, working in legal, it was bound to happen. It was an instant connection, and you’ve been friends ever since. Inseparable, practically attached at the hip.

Steve drives carefully as he eases off the highway and onto a little side road, taking the three of you further away from civilization and closer to the cozy little cabin you’ll be staying in for the next few days.

It’s easy to lose yourself as you watch Steve drive. The way his strong hands grip the steering wheel, the way his blue eyes reflect the bright winter sky. You’d be lying if you said you’ve never thought of him that way. Who hasn’t? He’s America’s golden boy, the man of your dreams.

And Bucky… oh Bucky, your thoughts about him are simply unholy. The quiet, brooding partner to America’s sweetheart. As you’ve gotten to know Bucky, you’ve come to understand that there’s more to him than meets the eye, but you love the darkness that settles just below the surface. 

As if he can hear your thoughts, Bucky turns and glances back at you from the passenger seat. “How you doin’ back there, doll?” He asks, a soft smile on his lips.

“Oh, I’m fine, Sarge,” you reply, smiling back. He gives you a wink before turning back in his seat.

You’re not sure how you’ll survive three days in a cabin with the two of them; there are so many variables… so many different ways this could send you up shit’s creek without a paddle.

You’re not going to lie; the past two days have been… tough, to say the least. There have been so many innocent touches and sweet smiles that you can’t tell what’s real and what’s your fantasy anymore.

Tonight is the official gift exchange. You’re excited for the boys to open your gifts; you tried so hard to find the perfect items. After changing into a pair of flannel PJ pants, you make your way out into the cabin’s main room.

You each have your own rooms, but each night you’ve been desperate to sneak into Steve or Bucky’s room and just see what happens. You haven’t had enough courage to do it, and part of you had hoped that one of them would do the sneaking.

You push the thoughts from your mind as the three of you gather in front of the roaring fireplace. There’s a sizable pile of gifts scattered around, more than you’d expect for a group of three, but you certainly don’t mind.

Steve and Bucky both wear similar attire to you, tight short-sleeved t-shirts, Steve in white and Bucky in black, as well as matching flannel pants. 

The boys hand out the gifts, making three separate piles for each person. Butterflies flit in your belly as you run your eyes over their straining muscles. Their shirts are too small, and you can practically see everything. But you’re not complaining. No, not one bit.

“Okay, who’s starting?” Steve asks, sitting back on his heels.

“Youngest to oldest,” Bucky suggests, grinning. Steve rolls his eyes but nods, looking to you to pick your first gift.

Torn wrapping paper litters the floor, and Steve waves around the garbage bag again in an attempt to get you and Bucky to clean up after yourselves. The two of you just laugh and crumple up the paper into little balls, chucking them at Steve.

“You keep that up, and I’ll take away the rest of the presents,” Steve scolds, though his smile is big and bright, so you know he’s not upset.

There’s only one gift left for each of you, so once the little paper fight has ended and you all settle down, you begin to peel the paper off your gift.

Inside is a thin black box that you know for sure contains jewelry. Your heart thuds in your chest as you pop the box open. Inside is a simple silver necklace with a beautiful blue topaz stone shaped like a teardrop hanging from the chain. Even though Steve and Bucky have different shades of blue in their eyes, somehow, this stone perfectly encapsulates both.

Tears well in your eyes as Steve and Bucky both move to sit beside you. Bucky sweeps your hair to the side, freeing your neck for Steve to place the necklace. 

“What’re you crying for?” Steve asks, brushing a stray tear away from your cheek. You sniffle a little and laugh, wiping your face.

“It’s just the perfect gift,” you reply, looking between Bucky and Steve. The way they look at you is heated, possessive, almost, but you shake your head a little and tell yourself you imagine it. 

Bucky lets his fingers linger on your skin for just longer than he should before the two of them return to their seats on the floor. 

Steve opens his gift next; it’s from you. He tears open the present like a little kid, grinning from ear to ear. Inside, he finds a new set of paints that were a bitch to find. He’d been talking about trying out a new style, and this one brand of paints would be perfect, so of course, you had to find him.

He gapes at the paints for a moment before wrapping you in a giant hug. “You’re the best,” he whispers into your shoulder before releasing you. 

By the time you recover from the embrace, Bucky is already opening his last gift, also from you. It’s a first-edition print of The Hobbit. The way Bucky looks from you to the book speaks volumes, and you’re about to tear up again.

Tonight went so much better than you thought it would. You’re so happy to be here, with them, in this cabin, on a perfect winter night. The snow has been coming in pretty steadily, but you don’t care one bit.

The three of you clean up, casually talking about work and other things happening in your lives, and once the main room is tidied, you realize how late it is.

It’s almost midnight, and Steve never shuts up about his bedtime. Bucky gives him shit for it, teasing him for needing the beauty sleep, but a good sleep routine is necessary for your line of work, so you don’t mind.

But you don’t want tonight to end. Tomorrow, you’ll have to pack up and return to the real world. 

Fuck that. Fuck the real world.

“You headin’ to bed?” Bucky asks Steve as the two of them toss the trash bags by the back door. Instead of responding, Steve just stares at you, lips slightly parted. You cock an eyebrow at him, confused.

“It’s way past your bedtime, old man,” you tease, hoping to clear the air of the odd tension that’s fallen over the three of you.

“Why don’t we watch a movie?” Steve suggests, leaning against the wall. “My room has the biggest TV.” Bucky smiles, and you nod along. A movie sounds nice.

Never mind, a movie is torture. Bucky and Steve lay on either side of you, and you’re practically frozen where you sit. If you move even an inch, you’ll be pressed up against a muscular chest. As much as you’d like to be pressed against one of them, you’re not sure how they’d feel about it. Sure, it was Steve’s idea to watch the movie in his room, but that doesn’t mean he was consenting to you being all over him.

Bucky’s vibranium fingers trace little patterns on your arms, sending shivers through you, but you try to pretend like you don’t notice. You’re worried that if you acknowledge it, he’ll stop.

The credits roll on the cheesy holiday movie Steve had picked, and you slowly push yourself upright. You huff a bit of a breath, and both men look at you curiously.

“Well, it’s late,” you say, shifting yourself down the bed to avoid crawling over Steve or Bucky. “I should probably head to bed.” You nearly run into the dresser, feeling around for your slippers. 

“Awe, come on,” Bucky practically whines from the bed. “The night is still young.” Even though you can’t see him in the dark, you know he’s wiggling his eyebrows in a way that makes your heart squeeze.

“I– I really can’t stay,” you say, fumbling over the words as you make your way toward the door. There’s movement behind you, sheets rustling, then suddenly, a presence right behind you. If you took a big breath, you’d be pressed against him.

“But baby, it’s cold outside,” Bucky tells you, placing his hands on your hips. His warmth envelops you from behind, begging you to sink into his embrace. You shiver.

“Tonight was,” your voice falters as you search for the words. “Amazing, but really, I should head to my room.”

“Baby,” Steve whispers, suddenly stepping in front of you, blocking your access to the door. “It’s cold outside.”

Even in the darkness, you can see the way he’s looking at you. You could drown in it. The heat of his gaze sends fire sweeping through you; it settles in your belly and makes you ache.

Bucky gently tugs you back into his chest, pressing you against him. Steve closes the distance, and you’re surrounded by them.

“You’re like ice, princess,” Bucky mumbles into your ear, nudging your neck with his nose. “Let us warm you up.”

Steve’s hands cup your jaw on either side, tilting your head up. His bright blue eyes shine despite the lack of light. “Is this okay for you?” He asks sweetly, thumbs brushing over the apples of your cheeks.

“Yes,” you breathe, a weight seeming to lift from your shoulders. Steve leans in and presses a gentle kiss to your lips, sending electricity shooting down your spine. Steve kisses you like he’s tasting you, like you’re a porcelain doll he doesn’t want to damage. 

Bucky litters kisses along your neck, sucking and nipping at all the sensitive spots. He’s leaving marks, but you don’t mind. Your right hand reaches out for Steve while your left feels back for Bucky. Both men react to your touch, pressing even closer to you.

“You know how long we’ve wanted this?” Bucky whispers into your ear. Steve keeps kissing you, swallowing the little moan you release. “The day we saw you, we knew.”

Steve releases you from the kiss and uses his grip on your head to turn you toward Bucky. His eyes are darker than Steves’s, not only in color but in intention. It makes your legs feel like jelly.

“I want you too,” you reply, the words slipping from your lips before you can stop them. Bucky grins and leans down, capturing you in a heated kiss. Steve’s hands drift down your neck, feeling the little marks Bucky left before reaching the neckline of your shirt.

You pull away from Bucky only long enough to tug your shirt over your head, tossing it somewhere in the dark room. Steve sucks in a breath at the sight of you in your bra, and you practically glow at his reaction. 

“You’re so beautiful,” Steve mumbles, leaving a trail of kisses from your collarbone, down your sternum, and between the valley of your breasts. He kneels in front of you as his fingers find the clasp of your bra at your back. He undoes it and carefully slides the garment off you, exposing you to his gaze.

“Stevie’s been craving you,” Bucky muses at your ear, hands sliding beneath your arms to grasp your tits. His vibranium fingers are cold in contrast to his flesh hand, and you moan at the feeling. “He’s so eager to please you.” His fingers tweak your nipples before heading south. His left hand finds Steve’s head, spearing his fingers through the blond’s hair. “Why don’t you tell our girl what you told me before this trip,” Bucky says to Steve. Your blood rushes in your ears. How is this real?

Steve gazes up at you with stars in his eyes. “I want to taste you,” the man practically moans. “I need it.” Bucky makes a sound, and Steve’s eyes shift to him. That must not’ve been the answer Bucky was looking for.

“Come on, Stevie, tell her exactly what you said.” You reach out and run your fingers along Steve’s jaw, silently telling him that you won’t judge him.

“I need you like I need to breathe, I need to feel you, need to taste you. I want to taste you on Bucky’s cock. I want to taste myself in your pussy.” You were already wet before, but now you’re soaked. The needy tone of Steve’s voice, the possessive grip Bucky has on both of you, it’s almost too much. It’s not quite enough.

Steve brings his lips to your breasts, swirling his tongue around one of your nipples while his fingers play with the other. You lean back into Bucky’s muscular body, and he holds you upright, letting his hands roam your body.

You’ve never been with two men, but the thought had undoubtedly crossed your mind when fantasizing about these two. 

“You gonna let him taste you?” Bucky asks, teasing the waistband of your pants, slowly dipping his fingers beneath the elastic. “You gonna give Stevie what he needs?”

All you can do is nod and let Bucky and Steve tug your pants down. They help you step out of the pooling fabric before Steve is pressing his lips against your panties, breathing you in.

His fingers grip your hips and ass, digging into your flesh and muscles. He eats you out over your panties, driving you wild with the need to feel him directly. 

“Please, please,” you beg, arching your back to get your point across. Bucky chuckles and reaches down to help Steve pull your panties off. You catch the way Steve balls them up and tucks them into Bucky’s pocket, but you can’t find it in yourself to care.

Steve dives back in without another word, lapping up your arousal eagerly. He works your clit in perfect circles bringing you right to the edge. You’re so worked up that when Bucky bites your shoulder, it sends you spiraling. Your legs buckle beneath you, but they’re both there to catch you as you come down from the high.

“That was perfect, princess,” Bucky praises, kissing you sweetly. You smile into the kiss, feeling him lift you up and place you on the bed.

“Your turn,” you say, reaching out for both men. Bucky groans at your suggestion, palming his erection. He directs Steve to sit on the bed and gets everyone into position. You love how he commands the room; he’s in his element.

You slip off the bed and kneel between Steve’s legs while Bucky kneels on the bed, hips at Steve’s head. What you’d give to be a fly on the wall watching this…

The men both remove their pants and boxers, and you shamelessly ogle them. They’re both built like gods, sculpted from marble and fucking magic. Their cocks are just like the rest of them, and it dawns on you that you have no idea how they’ll fit.

Even so, you reach out and wrap your fingers around Steve’s hard length, bringing his attention down to you. As you begin to circle your tongue around his tip, he tangles his fingers in your hair. He doesn’t push you, just moves with you. Bucky then guides his own cock to Steve’s mouth, and you notice that the more eagerly you please Steve, the harder he works Bucky.

You grin at the power you hold over both of them and work your mouth down Steve’s cock. You take him into your throat until you’re sputtering, and Steve moans around Bucky. 

The way Bucky guides Steve’s head has you moaning as you try to replicate the movement. Steve strains around Bucky’s cock but takes him so well. Bucky praises both of you, grunting about how good the two of you are, how perfect you are.

A moment later, Steve pulls you off his dick and tugs you onto the bed. Bucky is repositioning himself as well, and butterflies flit in your tummy.

“We don’t have to do anything else tonight,” Steve tells you, running his fingers down your back. “I don’t wanna push you or anything.” Bucky nods in agreement, vibranium hand cupping the back of your neck.

“This is all pretty new to you; we won’t be upset if you want to take things slower,” he adds. 

“What if I don’t wanna go slow,” you reply, sucking in a heaving breath. You want them so bad you’re practically vibrating with need. “What if I need to feel you?”

Steve whimpers at your side, and Bucky moans.

“Fuck, princess, that’s music to my fuckin’ ears.” Bucky kisses you, pressing you down into the mattress. He hovers over you, caging you in. His right hand reaches between your legs and runs along your sensitive flesh. Steve does the same from the other side, two hands working you in tandem.

Their fingers open you up, stretching you in a way you’ve never experienced before. They work without needing to speak, a singular goal in mind.

“You’re doing so good,” Steve praises, running his free hand along Bucky’s back. “So good for us.”

Once Steve and Bucky are satisfied with their handiwork, Steve guides Bucky’s cock to your entrance. “You ready, baby?” Bucky asks, leaning his forehead against yours. 

“Yes, please fuck me, Bucky,” you plead as he presses into you. Even though they prepped you, Bucky is still big, and you’ve never taken anything quite so large before. It feels so good as he thrusts deep and hard inside of you.

Your eyes roll back into your head while your hand seeks out Steve, needing the connection. Finding his cock, you wrap your fingers around him and pump at the same speed as Bucky. Steve hisses in a breath at the feeling and bucks into your hand.

“You feel so fuckin’ good, princess,” Bucky moans into your ear, hiking one of your legs onto his shoulder. “So tight for me.” Your mouth falls open, your lips forming an ‘O’ as the band in your belly tightens. 

“Oh my god,” you whimper, getting closer and closer to snapping.

“That’s right, baby,” Bucky urges. “Come all over my cock. That’s it; you’ve got it.” You burst at the sound of his words, coating his cock with your orgasm. He keeps fucking you, making you ride the wave for what feels like an eternity.

He pulls out once you’ve caught your breath and tugs Steve down. Steve eagerly takes Bucky into his mouth and moans at the taste. You can’t tear your eyes away from the sight of Steve sucking the cock that had just been buried inside you. It’s the hottest thing you’ve ever seen.

“You like what you see, princess?” Bucky asks, one of his fingers drifting to your clit, circling it slowly. “He can’t get enough.”

Bucky guides Steve off his dick, and the two men turn to face you. 

“I want both of you,” you whisper, barely able to muster up the courage to admit it. Bucky cocks a brow at you before turning to Steve.

“You hear that, Stevie?” Steve nods, seemingly in a trance. “She wants both of us.” You watch in amazement as Bucky positions the three of you in the way he wants, quickly figuring out where everyone needs to be to make your fantasy come to life.

Bucky then steps away, digs through the bedside table, finds what he needs, then returns. “Okay, Stevie, lay back and let our princess ride you.” Steve does what Bucky asks and helps you straddle his strong hips. You guide his cock to your entrance and sink down on him, watching his face contort as you squeeze his length. He fills you perfectly, hitting spots inside you that make you see stars. 

From behind you, you feel Bucky’s fingers, slick from what must be lube, slide against your ass. You shiver at the feeling but welcome it, angling your hips so he has better access. 

“You feel so perfect squeezin’ me,” Steve moans from below you, hands reaching out to grope your tits.

“Isn’t she tight, Stevie?” Bucky asks, pressing a finger into your ass. You hold your breath at the feeling, but Steve just whispers calming words to you. You relax into them as Bucky slowly moves his finger.

One finger becomes two, and you ride Steve a bit harder as you warm up to the feeling. He grips your hips and guides you on his dick, working the pleasure from you.

Bucky adds a third finger, and you feel like you’re going to explode, but a good explosion. You’ve never felt so full, and you can’t imagine how amazing it’ll feel when it’s his cock and not just his fingers.

“Please, Bucky, please,” you beg, leaning back against his chest. He kisses your neck and smiles at your neediness.

“You ready for me, princess?” he teases, thrusting his fingers at a quicker pace. 

“Fuck yes, Bucky, I need you so bad.” Bucky pulls you into a bruising kiss as he removes his fingers and replaces them with the tip of his cock.

“You’re doing so good for me, baby. For us. Be a good girl and let me in.” Bucky keeps kissing you as he presses his cock further and further inside of you. Steve helps you relax, but you can tell it’s difficult for him. His strokes are getting messy as you get tighter around him.

Only a thin wall separates Bucky and Steve’s cocks, and that just turns them on even more. It turns you on even more.

They pump into you simultaneously, finding the perfect rhythm that makes your heart stutter. You’re at mercy to them, putty in their hands. Bucky and Steve worship you; they chant your name like a prayer.

All you can do is moan and beg, your brain becoming jelly the harder they fuck you. With their supersoldier serum, they last so much longer than other men. They bring you to orgasm after orgasm, pleasing you seems to be their only goal.

“I’m gonna come,” Steve whimpers from below you, fingers digging into your hips with bruising force. “Please, I’m gonna come.” Bucky leans over your shoulder, pumping into your ass with deeper strokes than ever.

“Give her your cum, Stevie; she wants it so bad. Right, princess?” Bucky’s vibranium fingers wrap around your neck, and you come again just from that.

“Oh my god, Steve, please give it to me. Please come inside me,” you moan, gripping Bucky’s arm.

Steve comes on a long, drawn-out moan, sending Bucky over the edge right after. He thrusts into you a few more times before he becomes too sensitive, then they’re both pulling out.

The three of you fall into a heap on the bed, panting and sweating. Bucky kisses you deeply before shifting to give Steve the same treatment. Steve carefully slides off the bed and grabs a warm washcloth from the bathroom to clean up with.

He takes care of you sweetly, ensuring not to irritate your sensitive skin. You clean him up, and together you care for Bucky.

Once you dispose of the washcloth, Bucky and Steve tug you down into bed between them. Your limbs tangle with theirs, and you melt into their embrace. 

“You were so perfect, baby,” Bucky whispers against your head, thumb rubbing circles into your arm. “You are so perfect.” Your heart tugs in your chest.

“I hope you know,” Steve interjects, clearing his throat. “We both have feelings for you, more than just for the physical stuff. If you feel the same way, we wanna make this work out in the real world. The three of us.” Your breath catches, and you feel like you’re dreaming. No way is he saying this.

“Really?” you ask, turning to see Bucky’s reaction.

“Really, princess. You’ve been ours since the day we saw you. We’ve just been waiting for you to realize it. We’ll take it slow, it’s not gonna be as easy as a ‘traditional’ relationship, but we’ll make it work. We want it to work for you.” Tears brim in your eyes and Steve kisses your cheek.

“Yes, yes, of course, I want this,” you reply, holding their hands. “Who gives a shit about easy? Nothing is ever easy. As long as we’re in it together, that’s all I care about.”

Bucky’s eyes crinkle in the corners as he kisses you. When he breaks the kiss, he turns you to Steve, who presses his lips to you sweetly. It all feels so natural, so easy. 

Even though the winter wind whips at the windows, you’re comfy and warm in the embrace of your two supersoldiers. Nothing could be better than this right here.

Out of everyone that could have captured the Winter Soldier, Fury hadn't expected to be the one to do so. But he didn't question it. After all, who was he to argue when a sharpened weapon was given to him?

Rumlow actually smiles and crackles “our puppet, like you,” his voice so quiet and the words so distorted that Barnes just barely makes them out. He tells himself that they’re just words, and they’re just words designed to elicit an emotional response. It’s been just two months; there’s nothing HYDRA could have done by now, to make those words true. Right? A story of how far three people will go to bring Steve Rogers home -- and of how far HYDRA will go to bring home their Winter Soldier.

Steve breathes a sigh of relief. Instead of giving in to his impulse to shout invective, to demand to know why Bucky broke camp without telling anyone, why he keeps doing that, Steve says: “Who you talking to, Buck?” Bucky pats something on the ground and shifts his leg.

For all Steve’s bravado, his disregard and his blind determination, Bucky knows that neither of them thought they’d end up here—Bucky, with a body full of poison and secrets, a head full of landmines; Steve, with the weight of a nation on his newly-formed shoulders; both of them, with eyes for each other first. At least that part isn’t new. [Or, Bucky Barnes, from the rescue to the Commandos.]

Bucky really wishes that Steve understood all of the ways that this wasn't a back alley in Brooklyn, that this was war, and that he had a half-dozen men who would follow him to hell but he could try a little harder to keep those excursions to a minimum.

“Y’know,” Dugan gestures vaguely, “senators, war profiteers, generals. Big men don’t care if a few of us get blown up as long as we win the battle.” “Yeah,” Jones joins in, “we do the fightin’, they get the glory, and don’t care what else happens as long as they get their name on the front page.”

I thought I’d be feeling more triumphant to have wrapped up my post-TFATWS stucky endgame fix-it series, A Man Takes His Sadness Down to the River, which is now complete. And believe me, I’m pleased and relieved to have the whole thing out in the world. But it’s also bittersweet and there’s an odd little feeling of let-down, too. 

I’m going to miss these versions of Steve and Bucky—and Sam and Sarah. These are the most psychologically complex stories I’ve written as Steve and Bucky slowly and arduously figure out how to live with themselves and with each other in the post-Snap, post-Return, post-Endgame world as it is. How do you move forward after all the mistakes and injustice and everything you’ve had to survive to reach this point?

Not an easy question.

But in the same way that I view Steve and Bucky as fundamentally hopeful characters, these stories also contain a lot of joy and hardwon moments of happiness. As Steve thinks at one point—

But that’s the world, bleak turned one way and then somehow still beautiful when turned inside-out with the bleak waiting again for the next reverse, not really gone anywhere: just out of sight.

I’ve been working on this series for years—I started the earliest drafts back at the end of 2021—and it’s been very much a labor of love. So if you’re interested in trying an Endgame fix-it that doesn’t let Steve off the hook for the choices he made but also gives him the chance to do better; and a story that lets Bucky keep the hardwon connections and growth we see in TFATWS while bringing Steve and Bucky, these two profoundly intertwined characters, back together and then asks: after everything, how could these characters live, really live, in the world again?

“If you didn’t live in New York,” Bucky asks while passing over another ice cold beer before he takes his own, “where would you go?” Steve has seen a lot of the world, in passing, coming from one fight or heading to the next. “I don’t know.” He slumps further down in the sloped deck chair and tilts his head to watch Bucky’s face in profile, silhouetted against the heat-warmed bricks and the long slice of purpling sky that hangs between buildings over the road. “Anywhere you wanna see?” Bucky wets his lower lip and takes a swallow of the sour beer. Steve shoves down the desire to draw Bucky’s hands, doing the ordinary things of living, until he can bury Bucky in a cascade of those images. “Some days, feels like there’s not much in the world I haven’t seen. Seeing it during peacetime, though, that’d be something.” Bucky slants that dark, dangerous grin at him that’s straight from the spring of ‘44. “If you can call this peace.” Reaching out, Steve offers the neck of his beer. “What’s peace, anyway?” Bucky clinks their two bottles together. “What the hell is peace?”

This series is the story of two old soldiers trying to find some peace, whatever that may be.

Read A Man Takes His Sadness Down to the River (The Consolation of Philosophy)

[heroesfromtheashes]

Steve hugged Bucky tight, lightly stroking his face. “It’s always been you, Buck. Even back in the 40’s when I was tiny and couldn’t breathe right. I mean I wanted into the war to do what was right, but I also wanted in to make sure someone really had your back too. I was terrified I’d get a “we regret to inform you..letter.” He admitted softly. Then again he’d always wondered if anyone would’ve told Bucky he’d died if he hadn’t gotten the serum..

“Then Azzano happened.. and half of me wanted you with me while the other half wanted you to take the discharge..” Steve sighed. “And the damn train, it crushed me. That’s why I went down in the Valkyrie. I didn’t want to live in a world without you. I didn’t know how to live in a world like that.”

The blond pausing to gather his thoughts. “All this to say.. you’ve always been my rock, my whole world. I’m sorry about everything that’s happened, Buck, but, maybe I can be your rock now, and we can make a decent life for ourselves?”

❝  i used to have so much faith.  maybe not in deities or something but,  in the world.  the universe.  i believed there was a purpose to it all.  i’m not sure when i lost that.  But I have faith in you, always have.” (From Steve)

When Steve had vanished from the platform to return the stones to their proper place, Bucky had no illusions. Illusions and hope, these were things reserved for other people, and not for him. Even now, on US soil of his own accord for the first time in seventy years, it didn't seem quite real, the time he had spent in Wakanda - the charity, the kindness, the care - the peace. Decades of torture had left their mark, decades of going without, without understanding that he was going without - no. Bucky Barnes had no illusions. Steve would take his chance to take his life back, the life that HYDRA had taken from him - and it was hard not to be bitter, because for him, there was no taking back what had been stolen. The man he had been, when he had fallen to his first death in 1945, had died in the Alps that day, and he stood here now as a ghost of that man, a mere facsimile of what HYDRA had destroyed. He'd not expected Steve to return, and why should he? Why should Steve return here to this broken time and place, to his broken friends, when he could go back and make some sort of idyllic life for himself, perhaps save another Bucky in another time, and give him back his life before HYDRA had broken him completely. But then - a miracle. There Steve was, looking no worse for the wear - tired, perhaps, drained, but there, just as Dr. Banner had said he would. Bucky had stared at him as Steve had shaken Bruce's hand, then Sam's - then turned to him, and suddenly, there were arms around him, holding him close, closer than anyone had held him in a long time. The air left Bucky's lung for a moment, stunned, before he had pulled Steve into his own arms and held him. His jaw was tense, holding back so much emotion - he'd never had admitted it, the desire to not be alone now that he was free - but then Steve had pulled him aside, away from Sam and Bruce, and words fell from his lips that wounded and heartened Bucky at once. "...I don't know what I've done to deserve that faith, Steve. I'm certainly not an angel, I'm not even entirely sure I have faith in myself..." Bucky shoved his hands into his jacket pockets, and looked out over the water for a moment. "The world's been hard to us - in different ways, but...I guess it's not surprising we've lost faith in things like God. When we've seen what we've seen, lived through what we have...I mean, I had a talking raccoon try to buy my gun off of me." It was a touch of much needed levity, and Bucky smirked a bit, but the serious tone remained. "...Why me? After everything...why me?"

MEET THE BARISTA: Jen

@jen-with-a-pen

1. From one to five stars, how would you rate your writing? (No downplaying yourself!)

I would honestly rate my writing a solid 3½. I know that I have lots of room for improvement and growth– I've even seen growth from fic to fic or chapter to chapter and it makes me really proud to see how far I've come. 

2. What do you think makes your writing stand out from other works?

Personally, I think that my setting/world-building and “set direction” helps me stand out. In college I did screenwriting for a bit and that's how I kinda do my rough drafts, writing them in present tense and making sure I’m showing and not just telling. Also making sure my OCs or characters have special awareness of things and people around them. 

3. Are there any writers that inspire you?

SO MANY TO EVEN NAME GOOD LORD. When I was initially invited into discord servers, I was fangirling in my apartment with my cat over basically being in the same room as some of (what I consider to be) the best and biggest writers of the fandom that I had been reading for months prior. There are so many mutuals and people who inspire me, too many to name specifically, but I will say that Hope (aka pilotisms/whirlybirbs) is the one whose works really gave me the courage and motivation to start writing in the fandom for the first time. IWe’ve never talked, but I hope she knows I think about Vacant Mirrors religiously to this day.

4. What’s the fic you’re most proud of?

It’s so hard picking between your children! I think it’s a close tie with FOXHUNT and FILTHY, IMPETUOUS SOULS but the latter probably takes the top spot atm. It’s been so well received, even more so than I could’ve ever imagined. I almost scrapped the entire thing and I’m so glad I decided against it.

5. Which character(s) do you find easiest to write and which do you find most difficult to write?

Bucky and Steve both come easiest to me. Finding a good flow for either of them depends on my mood and muse, but I gravitate towards one or the other 99% of the time. I'm terms of difficulties, trying to write OFCs or minor/background OCs is harder for me since they don’t have a “format” like pre-established characters do. 

6. Who or what do you find yourself writing about most?

Bucky. Bucky has always been my muse since Day 1 and most of my little notes or WIPs involve him in some way. Also writing settings in college or around college is a pattern I’ve noticed that, although I will never give up, I have been trying to do different time periods and not involve school since I’ve been out of it for a good two years at this point.

7. Tell us about a WIP you’re excited about!

I've had this specific WIP idea/concept going on 2-3 years now and it's coming together… albeit incredibly fucking slowly. It takes place within the 6-9 months between Endgame and TFATWS and involves a lot of angst, healing, and melancholy. I've been including details from the Falcon and Winter Soldier comics along with Bucky’s healing journey through grief and PTSD, amongst other things. It's been in the works for too long, so who knows if it'll see the light of day? 

8. First fandom you ever wrote for?

One Direction. I was 11 and had unrestricted Internet access. I was unstoppable. (If anyone was on Miss Literati you’re a real one.)

9. Any guilty pleasure trope(s)?

Omegaverse, hands down. Also poly fics (stucky x reader, my beloved.) 

10. A trope you’ll never, ever write for.

I cannot for the love of God do pregnancies, time travel, or fantasy. Just doesn't appeal to me whatsoever.

11. Wildest fic you’ve ever written?

Probably the first time I wrote smut, which was my Ranch Hand!Bucky fic, Impressions on the Inside of Your Thigh. I wouldn’t necessarily call it wild, but to me it was/is!

12. Favorite pairing to write for? (platonic or romantic!)

Honestly? Stucky. There's something about the endless possibilities of their dynamic that makes lil ol bisexual me’s heart swell with happiness. The best thing is, they’re so versatile; you can have them be platonic or romantic and still bring out their unconditional love for one another. 

13. Do you listen to anything while you write?

If I really need to get into the mood of the specific story, then yes. Otherwise, I'll either have a Twitch VOD on for background noise or just put noise-canceling headphones on and zone in on the quiet. 

14. One-shots or multi-chaptered works?

One shots! 

15. Have you ever daydreamed about side adventures/spin-offs from your fic? Tell us about them!        

Literally every time I work on one. I’ve thought about one for Chains Around My Feet where it’s like a prologue leading up to the events in Chains, but it felt more appropriate to leave it as a one shot. FILTH, IMPETUOUS SOULS also gets a daydream sometimes about how their dynamic might be back at home base, the aftermath of the fic’s events, that sort of thing. 

16. Is there anything you’ve wanted to write, but you’ve been too scared to try?

Omegaverse. I’m slowly working up the courage, but I just don’t feel like I’m ready yet. There’s also another WIP that I had started for Whumptober 2023, but it was just too intense that I scared myself out of finishing it and posting it. HTP is definitely not for the weak of heart and mind.

17. What’s the nicest comment you’ve ever received?

There are legit so so many lovely ones, but I think one that stands out at the moment was when I wrote the weight and someone said something among the lines of “I don’t really read Stucky a lot but this just convinced me to read more” and that felt like such an accomplishment to me.

18. Have you ever gone outside of your comfort zone for a fic? How did it turn out?

Chains Around My Feet was my first Whumptober work and was definitely something I had never done before. I actually was pretty impressed with myself on how well (in my own opinion) I was able to write horror/whump with a Dead Dove ending. Pretty proud of it still. 

19. Tooth-rotting fluff or merciless angst?

Merciless Angst!

20. Do you have any OCs? Tell us about them!

Not that I can really think of. If an OC counts as an x reader? Then the Reader I came up with for my years-long WIP. 

21. If you could enter the universe of any one of your fics, which would it be and why?

Honeysuckle, hands down. Living and working in Avengers Tower, adventuring in NYC, enjoying the sunsets, all while doing it with the Bucky Barnes? Yes. Fucking. Please.

22. Is there anything you wish your audience knew about your writing or writing process?

When I write, the scenes play out in my head like a literal movie. I see it as scripting everything out and then running through and editing scenes, and then when everything is done, it plays out like a fully fleshed out film. It’s both a blessing yet a curse, but it’s so integral to my process.

23. Copy and paste an excerpt you’re particularly fond of.

From FILTHY, IMPETUOUS SOULS:

He scoffed a laugh. “You weren’t exactly on my list of things t’do.”

“Well I hope I’m a top priority, now.”

“Number fuckin’ one.”

24. Ramble about any fic-related thing you want!

I wish I could stop time and just sit down for a week and get my WIPs started and edited and DONE. I’m entering my busy travel season for work and don’t have nearly as much time and energy as I did like a month or two ago. I miss it. I miss my muse, I miss being able to sit down and spend time fleshing out all these ideas in my head. The other side of it is lack of engagement (mutuals you’re okay i promise) and lack of feedback. Like yeah, kudos and likes are okay, but whenever I get a reblog– one that isn’t from a minor or bot account– I get so happy. When I get a comment, it’s like striking gold. I just wish that the passive consumption and aggressive demand for our work would die down and readers would take the time to even share our stuff. It’s disheartening to see your favorite authors cease writing because what’s the point anymore, ya know? Anyways, SUPPORT YOUR WRITERS!

Halloween Fic Recs 2023 Week 3: Stucky + SamSteveBucky

Spooky story month continues with fics featuring Bucky Barnes/Steve Rogers (and a couple with Bucky Barnes/Steve Rogers/Sam Wilson as a bonus!)

Red Thread by Vulcanodon (@rue-the-aardvark) (Graphic Depictions Of Violence, Explicit, 29,154 words)

Summary: "Under three feet of solid ice and nestled tightly in dark roots, it was impossible to tell whether Steve was dead or sleeping. The ice could have been glass it was so transparent, and Bucky could see faint traces of pink on Steve’s nose and cheeks. His eyes were shut, and he was completely and utterly still. There was no possible way that a human could still be alive. But Steve was more than human. And besides, he had survived it before." Steve Rogers is missing, his last known location a seemingly abandoned little town known as White Oaks. When all attempts to find him fail, Natasha Romanov calls in the services of the Winter Soldier. Until now Bucky Barnes has been lying low in New York and trying slowly to piece together the shattered fragments of his identity. But in order to bring Steve back, Bucky will have to face not only the darkness that lies beneath the placid surface of White Oaks but stay one step ahead of his own demons...

Haunted by ElisabethMonroe (@abarbaricyalp) (SamSteveBucky, Graphic Depictions Of Violence, Mature, 12,412 words)

Summary: Seeking refuge in a storm after a fight, Sam, Steve, and Bucky get more than they bargained for from a haunted house

The rest below the cut!

Steve Rogers Ruins Christmas: a Thanksgiving Miracle by AggressiveWhenStartled (@aggressivewhenstartled) (SamSteveBucky, Teen And Up Audiences, 11,520 words)

Note: I know this is a Christmas/Thanksgiving story but again, ghosts = spooky = halloween

Summary: “I know I spent a while frozen in the arctic,” Steve said as he slowly reshut the driver’s side door and stepped back to take in the view. “So I guess I haven’t had a chance to see everything here in the future. But I was not expecting a Bavarian-themed Taco Bell with the KFC guy standing out front wearing lederhosen.” Also available as a podfic read by quietnight (@quietnighty)

dance with a ghost by crinklefries (@spacerenegades) (Teen And Up Audiences, 11,634 words)

Summary: “Captain America is haunting me,” Bucky says over a bowl of ramen. His pronouncement is met with a round of silence. “Captain America,” Natasha says. ���As in--” “The first Avenger,” Bucky confirms. “Supersoldier and hero of World War II. The fabric of the American conscience.” “But he’s--dead,” Sam says. His look of perplexed concern, ever perplexed and ever concerned, only increases. “You’re aware of that, right?” “I know,” Bucky says. “That’s why I said he’s haunting me.” Also available as a podfic read by lightupstars

Ophelia Rising by velvetjinx (@velvetjinx) (Graphic Depictions Of Violence, Major Character Death, Explicit, 5,002 words)

Summary: When Steve and Bucky move in together in a small town in upstate New York, they both feel like their lives couldn't get any better. But there's just something about Bucky's grandmother's doll that makes Steve uneasy.

Mandatory Disclosure Not Required by leveragehunters (Monkeygreen) (@leveragehunters) (Teen And Up Audiences, 6,991 words)

Summary: Stigmatised property is property which may be shunned for reasons other than its physical condition. Reasons like a murder or a belief that it's haunted. Most jurisdictions require mandatory disclosure to a buyer where the property's stigmatised nature could affect its value. There's no such requirement to inform renters. Steve should have asked more questions, but a two bedroom apartment with good light in that part of the city? At that price? He couldn't say no. He needed a place to live at a price he could afford and, well, gift horses and mouths, he wasn't going to look too closely. There was a reason the apartment was so cheap. There was a reason tenants didn't last. There was always a reason for everything. Steve should have remembered that. He was about to be reminded, because his name might be on the lease, but it wasn't his apartment. Something already lived there.

It's a Ghost Story (baby just say yes) by moontyrant (Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings, General Audiences, 11,262 words)

Summary: There are an infinity of universes in potentia. In one, Bucky Barnes was born in the early twentieth century, followed Steve Rogers into a crusade against Hydra, was captured and became the Winter Soldier. In another universe, Bucky Barnes was born in the 1980s and grew up to spend his weekends busting ghosts. “And this guy is legit?” Clint asked for the third time, eyebrows making a break for his hairline.Tony threw his hands in the air. “How should I know! He has some reviews online but it’s not like he has a website or anything.”

The Soul That You Used by WillowPerpetua (Major Character Death, Rape/Non-Con, Explicit, 21,412 words)

Summary: Bucky Barnes wandered the earth as a ghost for seventy years. He found solace in the medium, Natasha, who gave him shelter, company, and one day, signed him up for an online dating service in the hope that he might find somebody else to talk to.Steve was the man he found. "Bucky did not know Steve, no, but he knew Steve’s type. He met many men in hostels and train stations, and while he had never before found the courage to touch them—even through somebody else’s hands—he had discovered the uniquely visceral brand of danger that they all craved in common."

The Afterlife of The Party by neversaydie (Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings, Mature, 8,433 words)

Summary: "Oh no. Hell no." Bucky freezes with his hand halfway to the giant ornamental vase the new family have just unpacked. Smashing it would be the perfect way to announce himself on moving day: a big, stylish gesture that's ambiguous enough to leave them feeling only slightly unnerved until he decides things need to escalate. That is, it would be the perfect way to announce himself if a skinny blond kid hadn't just walked through the living room wall. "This house is taken, pal. What the fuck?" "Uh, this is my family." The kid is standing there awkwardly, like they're still corporeal and he might have to duck or deliver a punch in the near future. "This is my house." He narrows his eyes and slowly gets to his feet. The guy's eyes keep flicking to his missing arm and Bucky is starting to see red. "And I don't appreciate other people living in it." [in which Dead Dorks in Love, awkward ghost sex, and a whole lot of accidental feelings happen]

[katie-delaney]

Writing notes - Stucky works in progress/ideas, trying to stop hopping about and get one done but 😂

He Ate My Heart - au abo that I wrote about before, one/maybe two more chapters to go, up on ao3. Very likely to end up with a second part where they go take down Hydra/the world together.

The Meat Grinder - au abo army vet Steve taking any job he can as sex worked Omega Bucky's handler and trying desperately not to fuck him and Bucky's a completely brat/tease/thirsty as hell for Steve. Hannibal (as in mads series) seems to have fallen into this fic and I don't know how or why. Like I'm well aware Mads plays a character in the marvel universe but I didn't want him I wanted Hannibal 😂 (16k words so far)

Unnamed fic set pre first avenger voyeurism fic with Steve and Bucky living together and Steve getting off on listening to him having sex with women, Bucky notices, it escalates, Bucky is awful in this. Like really awful. (4k words so far)

Unnamed au fic no powers with ex vet Bucky going to a sex therapy clinic because he can't come and sees Steve and kind of magic healing cock and where the fuck do I get these weird ideas? (4k words so far)

Unnamed time travel fic set during Falcon and Winter Soldier where Bucky's alone in his room jerking off and Steve appears time traveling from the 40s and Bucky just thinks he's having another episode...in a kind of end game fix it (2k words so far)

📖✨Shortkingvi's Fic Hall of Fame✨📖

Since I’ve been a regular fic reader since ~2011, I figure a list like this is long overdue. This is a (semi) comprehensive list of every fic that has irrevocably changed who I am as a person forever. Some of these may not be the most world-altering fic's you've ever read, but for some reason they have wormed their way into my heart and stuck with me since the first time I read them. So, in no particular order and across many fandoms, here are my all time top-10:

1. tin soldiers - idrilka (Marvel Cinematic Universe, rated T, Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes)

Do you need to know the source material? Yes.

this fic... what do i truly say about this one. i am a stucky bitch first and foremost and this is the absolute best of them. a direct companion to captain america: the winter soldier, this fic covers what the public opinion of cap, the plot of the movie, and his relationship with bucky was/is/might be. written as a collection of academic papers, social media posts, and book excerpts, this fic takes unique and unforgettable to a new level. 10/10 would recommend!

2. maybe it's just me - bleedtoloveher (The Hunger Games, rated M, Katniss Everdeen/Peeta Mellark)

Do you need to know the source material? Yes, although you could get by knowing the general premise.

this is the first fic i ever remember reading (at like 13 or 14) and boy oh boy did it stick with me. i regularly go back to read this one because it's just... so pure and sweet. an AU where katniss and peeta have been best friends for years and peeta is the only one reaped. upon returning after winning the games, he and katniss must pretend to be in a relationship so that he can protect her from president snow, who is unhappy with peeta. i adore this fic, it's just so lovely.

3. meet me halfway to your heart - ariadnerue (Carmilla, rated T, Carmilla Karnstein/ Laura Hollis)

Do you need to know the source material? No.

i may or may not have a thing for the fake/pretend relationship trope. this one is a fic where carmilla and laura are best friends and the children of two A-list actors. after a pushy dude in a bar won't leave laura alone, she and carm pretend to be in a relationship. of course, the media catches wind of their supposed love and has a field day with it, forcing them to have to pretend they're in love to avoid ruining the release of their parents' new film. this one is so CUTE and a one-shot (albeit 22k words), so it's an easy, sweet read!

4. human interest - mad_lori (Brokeback Mountain, rated E, Ennis Del Mar/Jack Twist)

Do you need to know the source material? Yes, but techincally only the first hour or so, though i think you'd miss out on the catharsis of this by doing so.

no movie truly sticks with me and breaks my heart quite like brokeback, and after a particularly depressing rewatch last year, i stumbled upon this. originally written in 2006, this fic is an AU that imagines what might've happened if ennis had said yes to jack's proposition after ennis' divorce. they open up a cattle operation up in vermont and get their happily ever after. it's slice of life, it's real, it's sweet and cathartic. if you too have been personally victimized by this film, i recommend this more than anything else on this list. it's wonderful. there's a sequel fic that is technically unfinished, but it's 40 chapters and ends on a decent stopping point, so i think that's more than fine.

5. been lovin' you for quite some time - onemilliongoldstars (The 100, rated E, Clarke Griffin/Lexa)

Do you need to know the source material? No.

for some reason i am physically unable to read in canon clexa shit because it hurts too much, so this is an AU. FWB clarke and lexa find themselves spending christmas together and have to pretend they're strangers. it goes about as well as you'd think. read this as a wee baby gay and it means so much to me because of that. clexa truly is my greatest ship of all time, so you can imagine how much this one has stuck with me. an easy, quick, fun read with almost no angst.

6. United States v. Barnes, 617 F. Supp. 2d 143 (D.D.C. 2015) - fallingvoices, radialarch (Marvel Cinematic Universe, rated T, Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes)

Do you need to know the source material? Yes.

i didn't want to double dip on this list, but when they're this good, you have no choice. this fic is SO creative. similar to tin soldiers, this fic is formatted in an incredibly creative way! telling the story of bucky's hypothetical trial post winter soldier, this fic is a compilation of court transcripts, news articles, and social media posts. it's stucky at its core, but can also just be enjoyed as a bucky fic. it does an incredible job of holding your attention and truly making you feel like you're a part of this trial. this is the character work we should've gotten for bucky post winter soldier/civil war/endgame/ANYTHING.

7. i-80 west - socallmedaisy (Glee, rated M, Santana Lopez/Brittany S. Pierce)

Do you need to know the source material? Yes.

read this one right around the time i was graduating high school and boy oh boy was that the perfect time to read it. brittana roadtrip fic/ last summer in lima fic where they just... go through everything that people go through at that time. i know this one is special to me because of when i read it and what it meant to me, but GOD this one burrowed into the depths of my baby gay trauma brain and has lived there ever since. if you have time, this is a great one. just... yeah.

8. strawberry ice cream (revamped!!!) - banneancroft69 (Ocean's 8, rated E, Lou Miller/Debbie Ocean)

Do you need to know the source material? Yes.

we do ocean's 8 here sir. this one is just truly lovely. unfinished, so be warned, but it doesn't really matter, because it's mostly a timeline of Lou and Debbie's relationship, starting way back at their first meeting. i'm one of the many who believes that lou and debbie canonically had a on again, off again love affair but are ultimately each other's soulmates, and i think this fic does well to kind of tie all that complexity together in a very fresh way. i think about this one a LOT.

9. roll with the punches - greatestchange (Avatar: Legend of Korra, rated M, Korra/Asami Sato)

Do you need to know the source material? No.

godddddd this fic. this SERIES. korra and asami are estranged high school best friends. when asami learns korra's back in town and fighting in an underground fight club, she goes to seek her out and figure out why she left and what she's been up to since. this series is HEAVY, let me preface, and deals with drug abuse, self-destructive tendencies, and overall complicated humans. it will likely be the most difficult read on this list because of this, but it also is one of the most important for me. i related BIG TIME to this version of korra, and it just really is a masterfully crafted series that i cannot say enough about. please give this a read if it sounds like your thing.

10. see your world in traces - spibsy (Professional Wrestling, rated E, Seth Rollins/Dean Ambrose)

Do you need to know the source material? Yes, but a general understanding of wrestling would probably suffice.

burrowing this down at number 10 so no one notices it. seriously though, i find it hard to ever read anything wrestling related because it often veers way too far into RPF territory for me and those lines are muddy enough as is. this one though... this one is fully within kayfabe and just like.. has stuck with me since i was 16 for some reason. it's FCW era ambrollins aka PEAK twunk rollins era, and it's just such a perfect kayfabe explanation for the funky little feud they had at the time. it's genuine and messy and heartfelt and weird and i HAD to include it here if i truly wanted this list to be as honest and correct as i want it to be. if you're at all into wrestling, this is a lovely one that i should probably read again soon.

Steve took delivery from the delivery driver and headed back inside byes ordered all of Buckys favorites from the bakery around the corner. They were in the midst of trying to decorate for Christmas. “Hey honey, I got something for you!” He called out as he headed into their kitchen.

Bucky looked up from where he had somehow gotten wrapped in tinsel. The soldier chuckling slightly. “Stevie, you might have to come unwrap me.” He teased in response, “I’m abit tied up.” @heroesofbr00klyn

Card # R40101 | Square filled - O5 | Kink: Prostate Milking

Title ⊳ Sweet Baby

Author ⊳ plutosrose

Pairing ⊳ James "Bucky" Barnes/Steve Rogers

Rating ⊳ Explicit

Word Count ⊳1K

Major Tags ⊳ Porn Star AU, Prostate Milking, Daddy Kink

Summary ⊳ Steve takes the fact that Bucky has never come untouched before as a challenge.

Commentary ⊳ And come out the victor Steve does. The buildup with non sexual intimacy is so comforting.

“The past month had taught him that Steve was an incredibly physical person, and even when they weren’t having sex, he liked to pull him close, often pulling him directly into his lap even when there was plenty of room for the two of them to sit on the couch.”

That’s one of my favorite parts, fluffy before the naughty.

Title ⊳ Hold Still

Author ⊳ portraitofemmy

Pairing ⊳ James "Bucky" Barnes/Thomas "T. J." Hammond/Steve Rogers

Rating ⊳ Explicit

Word Count ⊳ 5K

Major Tags ⊳ Crossover, BDSM, Polyamory, Voyeurism, Prostate Milking, Kink, Gentle Dom

Summary ⊳ TJ twists his wrists against the ropes binding his forearms together behind his back, and reflects that there was a time in his life when he probably didn’t get excited by metal and rubber. Bucky crouches down in front of him, gripping TJ’s chin with his flesh hand, tipping his head up. “You’re being rewarded today, aren’t you, baby?” He asks, and TJ catches himself before he moves in response, Bucky’s answering grin is proud and a little dangerous, and TJ gets a kiss for his good behavior. “You can reply,” Bucky says magnanimously and Steve snorts behind him.

Commentary ⊳ Crossovers are some of my favorites and the dynamic between TJ, Bucky and Steve really set the tone. They both love him and want him to feel good, and he is their good boy.

Title ⊳ Milking and Cookies

Author ⊳ buckybarnesdeservestobehappy (hutchabelle)

Pairing ⊳ James "Bucky" Barnes/Steve Rogers

Rating ⊳Explicit

Word Count ⊳898

Major Tags ⊳ Modern AU, Domestic, Dom/Sub Undertones, Multiple Orgasms, Prostate Milking, Cookies and Cuddles

Summary ⊳ If Steve wanted to bake instead of being seduced, he shouldn’t have such a perky little ass that looks amazing beneath an apron. At least, that’s Bucky’s philosophy. While Steve prepares the cookies, Bucky decides milking is in order. It seems like a perfect way to spend a cold night. Together. Naked. Happy.

Commentary ⊳ Those poor cookies never stood a chance against Bucky, just like Steve. Humorous and sexy. What goes better with sex than a pun? Also, the title is so fucking cute and very fitting, made me smile.

Title ⊳ P̶r̶e̶v̶e̶n̶t̶a̶t̶i̶v̶e̵ Maintenance Checks and Services

Author ⊳ One-EyedBossman (desert000rose), SecretFandomStories

Pairing ⊳ James "Bucky" Barnes/Steve Rogers

Rating ⊳ Explicit

Word Count ⊳ 41K

Major Tags ⊳ Modern AU, War Veteran!Stucky, Developing Relationship, Kink Heavy, PTSD, Explicit Sexual Content, Prostate Milking, Dom!Bucky, Sub!Steve, Chronic Pain

Summary ⊳ ‘Gallantly will I show the world,’ Steve thought, ‘that I am a specially selected and well-trained soldier.’

Maybe not the world anymore, though. Maybe just one man, asleep in his bed.

Given the opportunity, Steve makes the most of his chance to care for his Boss in the ways he's desired. Lacking an alternative, Bucky practices asking for what he needs.

Commentary ⊳ The entire series is a goldmine, but this one in particular has stayed with me, living rent-free in my mind for months. If you're ever looking for Stucky BDSM fics with porn and plot that is gut-wrenching and makes you never want to put it down, this is it.

Bucky walked closer and Steve backed up until his knees hit the edge of the couch. With a surprised exhale of breath, Steve sat down and had to look up as Bucky hovered in a slightly menacing manner. Heart thumping wildly, Steve gulped before he could find his voice. ""So what did you have in mind, Buck?"" Wrapping his vibranium fingers carefully around Steve’s throat, Bucky gave a gentle squeeze. Steve felt all the blood in his head rush straight to his dick.

PoliZ’s Birthday Self-Recs: Stuckony

{got busy yesterday and forgot to post this!}

Indulging myself in the week leading up to my birthday by sharing some of my favorite MCU/Marvel fics I’ve written, grouped primarily  by pairing/relationship.   

After posting my WinterIron, Stucky and Stony lists, I don’t think anyone would be surprised to find out I also ship Stuckony aka  WinterIronShield aka  Bucky/Steve/Tony.    I’ve written 22 fics featuring this throuple which IMHO gives us the best of all three ships, as well as some primo pining opportunities!  Whether it’s Steve and Bucky as an established pair with Tony feeling like a third wheel, or Bucky coming in from the cold only to find Tony and Steve are together.  For that matter - Bucky and Tony could be a couple first, with Steve mourning over lost opportunities with both of them.  But happy threesome endings (smutty or otherwise) are almost always in store for these remarkable men. 

Here  - in reverse chronological order  by pub date - are a few of my favorite Stuckony fics I’ve written, at least as of this moment.   If  you’d like to know why I picked these particular ones, feel free to send an ask, and if you go read them, I’d love to hear what you think, either here or as a comment on the fic!   Finally, a big shiny No Prize to anyone who identifies the song that one of these titles came from!

A Slow Thaw

(Teen, canon-divergent established relationship, 16,087 words) --  Written as a follow on from  @27dragons​‘ most excellent  From Winter's Cold, this fic presents the threesome from an outsider POV - Peggy Carter, aka The Winter Soldier.   This fic picks up about three weeks after the end of FWC and focuses on Peggy's recovery and its ups and downs.   There is drama and angst; and a bit of fluff, and an oddly appropriate movie choice by Barton.   ( I have an multiple POV version of this story as well:  A Slow Thaw - Take Two)

Take What Was Wrong (And Make it Right) 

(Teen, wingfic & getting together, 18,565 words)  Afghanistan took more from Tony Stark than most people understand; the surgery in the cave stealing his ability to fly.  But in the wake of the Battle of New York, Tony discovers an unexpected sympathizer.  However, the revelation of the Winter Soldier’s identity and his recovery spurs Tony to reach for the skies once again.

In a Fix      

(Mature, established relationship, 788  words)  -- Steve is called in to do some plumbing repair work for a very handsome (and very flirty) man who is also apparently married.  Can he keep his cool or is he going to be in hot water? (NOTE: This is a pre-negotiated roleplay scene - no actual cheating occurs) 

Color Our World 

(General, kidfic + established relationship/adding a third, 1374 words)  - On their way back from Peter's preschool, Bucky and Peter find a painting they want to buy for Tony.  When the  three of them return to the gallery, they meet the attractive artist responsible for the piece.

Flawed Hypothesis 

(Mature, non-traditional a/b/o, 7617 words)  What everyone knows about certain members of the Avengers turns out to not exactly be true. NOTE: Co-written with @psychiccatpanda

Fill Me Up With Your Love

(Explicit,  PWP with very mild D/s, 1613 words) Steve’s lovers had told him three things before blindfolding him: he could come whenever he needed to, at least one of them would be touching him at all times, and before the scene was over,  they’d both be inside him.

'I want a baby' (for Steve)

Steve blinked at Bucky, stunned. “Um... Buck... did I hear you right? You want a baby?” @giveninservice

[legendssoldierscientistsa]

The honey colored wolf paced the cage it was in as the cage was pulled by four strong men into the large estate home of the leader of the local vampire clam. The wolf was a gift from a coven passing through, hoping to garner the favor of the vampire in hopes of settling into a place to live. They had captured it on the full moon and had been transporting it ever since. The wolf was agitated and underfed. Hopefully it would get free and would be able to hunt soon. They reached the inside of the estate home snd one of the witches stepped forward and bowed towards the vampire. “My lord, we have brought a gift in hopes of being allowed to settle in your city as we need a place to live...”

Bucky looked over the wolf and back at the witches, debating his choices. He made choices that affected his people all the time, and witches well..they were either your friends or terrible enemies. “Very well, you have shown me the couresty due to my station.” The vampire stated, “As long as you do not cause problems with my people, I do not see any reason why you can not stay. I will make arrangements for your coven, till then, I have multiple rooms. You will be my guests.” He said before walking around the cage.

“Tell me about the wolf. Where did you capture him? He’s quite an unusual color for a wolf.” Bucky pointed out, curious, but knowing better than to underestimate the caged animal. @heroesofbr00klyn
