[ID: A tweet from David K Barnes @VelvetBarnes: "One episode idea was Rudyard being reunited with his childhood sweetheart, allowing us to glimpse a romantic side to his nature... After a few scenes, I felt that the premise just wasn't right for him, and I abandoned it. I'd say he's aro."]

RUDYARD FUNN CANON ARO

[officially-tonynat-shrine]

hey sis, i got some bad fuckin’ news and i'm about ready to breakdown bc i'm losing my job in 3 days which means i won't get to see my cutie boy anymore (also i'll be jobless, fuck corporate for closing my store. fuckin assholes) but pls help im going to cry

Oh my god,,, hon, I'm sorry I didn't see this earlier!!! :((((Okay okay,, don't worry we'll find out a solution. I'm sure you can get through this!❤️💗💛💘💖💞💖💌💗❤️🧡❣️💛💙🧡 Okay, my hopeless romantic brain only has one answer to this- try asking the cute shoe shop guy if he knows any place which holds a vacancy? That way you can chat with him while also secure a job somewhere! Try that.. maybe ask him to ask some friends?

Series Masterlist

chapter three.

“I thought you didn’t want frou-frou? This seems pretty close to frou-frou to me,” you complained, face contorting as you pinched the massive skirt of the first dress Natasha insisted on trying. First on her wedding to-do list was, of course, to find a dress, so the two of you, plus two of your closest friends Wanda and Okoye, headed out early this morning to begin the search.

Nat grimaced, tilting her head as she looked in the mirror. “I just wanted to make sure I was out of the princess poof stage, and I most definitely am. Let’s get me out of this thing.”

“I kind of like it,” said Okoye, touching the skirt with a feather-light touch.

The dark-skinned woman had been Nat’s roommate in college, and their friendship only grew after they graduated. She fit right in within your ragtag group of friends.

Noticing the looks she was getting, Okoye let go of the dress and sighed. “Or it’s too much.”

You giggled, patting her on the shoulder as Nat stepped off the platform and stripped out of the dress. It was a two-person operation given how massive the skirt was, but finally it was back on a hanger to return to the sales floor, and the group was dispersing to find more dresses.

It was made a little tougher by the fact that Nat wasn’t completely sure what she wanted, but she was open to anything and would no doubt make any dress look amazing. The next one pulled off the rack was one of Natasha’s own choices, but she was out of it almost as soon as it was zipped up.

“Nope, no way. This mermaid-style makes my hips look ginormous. What’s next?”

The third dress was an improvement from the last. An empire waist covered in lace extended down into a pretty skirt with a long train. It had thin sleeves and a pretty scooping neckline. Natasha ran her hands over the material, a small sparkle in her eye.

“It’s pretty, Nat,” you sang, reading the look on her face like an open book. She twisted her mouth to the side as the others murmured their agreement.

“Is it dumb to say yes to the third dress you’ve tried on?” she asked, voice uncharacteristically shy. You reached up to grab her hand, your thumb drifting over the back of it in comfort.

“Not if you love it and can see yourself getting married in it.”

She seemed to weigh it a little more, before sighing. “Let’s...keep looking okay? I don’t want to make a decision just yet and end up hating it.”

You exchanged a glance with Wanda, who then looked over at Okoye. The three of you shrugged and helped Nat strip out of the dress. She went through another six dresses, declining each of them before she was ready to leave and get some lunch. Over the meal, you and the three bridesmaids bounced ideas off Nat, who scrawled each one into the small notebook she carried with her.

“Have you thought about colors?” Wanda asked, spearing a cucumber and a piece of lettuce. She chewed slowly as she regarded Nat, who looked as if Wanda had asked her to choose between her two (nonexistent) children.

“Um, well, no?” she squeaked, face flushing as she dropped it into her hands and groaned. “I don’t know what I’m doing.”

“That’s what we’re here for, sweetie,” you told her, resting a hand on her shoulder. “To help you decide. Plus, you don’t have to get everything done all at once. Where’s Steve on all this?”

She shrugged, sipping from her water. “He says to compile some ideas that I like and we’ll sit down and talk about them.”

Okoye sighed. “How is it you end up with perfect Prince Charming?”

The four of you dissolved into giggles before leaping right back into your conversation and planning. With the help of her friends, Nat was able to pinpoint three different color schemes for her wedding, which she would discuss with Steve later. Since she had all of her bridesmaids in front of her, plus her Maid of Honor, she opened up conversation about bridesmaid dresses. By the end of lunch, she had narrowed it down to long dresses, each of them in different styles to highlight her bridesmaids’ best attributes. She’d decide on a color once she and Steve picked their colors.

“So, Y/N, tell us all about what’s been going on with you,” Okoye said sometime later. The three of you ordered more glasses of wine after your meals had been cleared, not quite ready to leave just yet.

You only had a week with these girls until you could fly out here again, and you were going to make the most of it.

“You seeing anyone?” Wanda asked, not quite as slyly as she was going for. You raised your eyebrows and scoffed.

“With my work schedule? Hell no. I don’t have time.”

The girls exchanged glances, and fortunately you were an expert in ready them. Yeah, right, “work”.

“What?” you snarked, irritation rising. “I can be too busy to date.”

“Oh, yeah, of course you can,” Okoye agreed with a shrug. Seeing right through it, you crossed your arms and pursed your lips. “Okay, we’re just a little concerned, that’s all. You haven’t dated anyone since B—”

“Don’t say his name,” you hissed. “And I’ve dated plenty of people. Just none of them worked out.”

“Y/N….” Wanda sighed, looking at you warily. Your annoyance with them wasn’t hidden very well, and truth be told, you were sick of this round of questioning. You were fine. “Are you sure you can handle being around him again at the wedding? I mean, you guys haven’t talked in years. We just want to make sure you’re okay.”

“I’m fine, Wanda,” you said through gritted teeth. “As long as he acts like an adult instead of a giant man-child, we’ll be fine. Why are you all so hung up on this?”

The three girls exchanged glances in front of you, setting off alarm bells in your head. “What aren’t you guys telling me?”

Nat sighed, choosing to be the one to fall on her sword. “We didn’t know how to tell you. Please don’t be mad, but we don’t think you should find out at the wedding.”

“Find out what?” Despite your rational side screaming not to, you felt worry creeping up your spine.

“Bucky’s seeing someone,” Nat finished, deflating like she’d just dropped the world off her shoulders.

“Has been seeing someone,” Wanda provided, meeting Nat’s gaze for a moment. “They’ve been together about eight months.”

It felt like you were underwater; all you could hear was the blood rushing through your ears and the pounding of your heartbeat. But why? You and Bucky had been over for years. It was good that he found someone to keep up with his emotional constipation and childish mood swings. Great, even.

So why did you feel so shitty?

“Y/N?” Okoye asked, laying a hand over yours. With her touch you snapped back to reality and smiled, though it was forced and tight.

“I’m fine, Okoye. That’s….that’s great, really. I’m glad he found someone.” Your voice sounded far away in your head. Looking around at your friends, you felt another spike of irritation. “Why are you guys looking at me like that? I’m not made of glass, you know. Bucky and I are over. Have been for years. That’s not about to change.”

Even in your head it sounded weak, but the force of your glare seemed to be enough for them all to nod and accept your words. Inside though, your heart was yelling at you that it was a bold-faced lie, which you promptly shut down before you could fall down that rabbit hole of heartbreak and self-destruction.

Fortunately, the others seemed to pick up on your sudden drop in mood and chose to shift the conversation yet again. Okoye had taken a promotion at her job, one which all of you felt was severely overdue, and Wanda talked about what life was like living with Vis. You commented here and there, but a dark cloud had settled over your mood in the shape of one Bucky Barnes. Thanks, girls.

At four, you decided to call it a day, and you and Nat hugged Okoye and Wanda goodbye before getting into Nat’s car. The ride was mostly silent, until Nat decided to break it.

“You can tell me, you know.” You looked over at her, hands at ten and two, eyes flickering between you and the road. “If you weren’t over him.”

“I am, Nat,” you sighed, hating that you were sounding like a broken record. “Even if I wasn’t, what’s the point? He has someone now, so can we just drop it?”

“Sure,” she murmured, reaching over to pat your thigh. Your lips quirked up at the corners, thanking some higher power that your best friend was so understanding.

Nat pulled the car into the driveway and the two of you got out, walking up the walkway arm-in-arm. You laughed at something Nat said as you entered the house, hanging up your coat on the hook by the door.

“Want some more wine?” questioned Nat, pulling two down from the rack above her island in the kitchen. At your nod, she poured you both hefty glasses of red.

“Honey?” Nat called, hearing the sounds of the television in the living room. You followed her, sipping from your wine.

“In here, babe,” came Steve’s voice.

As you rounded the corner to the living room, you stopped dead at the sight of the second body, lounging back in the reclining sofa, feet up as if he owned the place. Like a bucket of ice water had been dumped over you, you stiffened.

Bucky turned his head to greet Nat, and instead his eyes found you, wide and with warring emotions brewing behind them.

“Hello Bucky.”

So, Cali is one of the last places that gets the New Year, but I hope you guys are having a great celebration as I wait here in the past. This is just a small year in review and thank you!

First of all, if you had asked me a year ago if I would be writing again -- I would have said no, that ship had sailed long ago with my endless love for a certain manga. But, out of the blue, it just started up again one day, I moved to finishing a story I hadn’t touched in years, I started up another (very long story now) because nobody else wrote for that one game. Then, I saw a challenge from one of my favorite writers and I thought why the hell not. I’ve only been writing for Marvel (and I have expanded into other stuff along the way) stuff for only a couple of months, but I loved it and the people I have met as a result! And I just wanted to thank you all! <3

@crytalstellar and @phen0l and @ashflower: i have known these lovely ladies for a very long time and even if we don’t write for the same things anymore, they are always there for me to talk to and to remind me that i should write because i love to, even when the going gets tough! their dedication and the way they just write is just a small snippet about what i love about all of them.

@isavuu: my sweet mercury is the first one that talked to me when it came to marvel, she offered to beta read pastel colors and we just clicked! she’s one of the sweetest and more determined people that i know and just talking to her brings a smile to my face.

@jaamesbbarnes: Knowing Dori has been a whirlwind, it just sort of came up one day and we talked almost every day for a good while until I felt she was always there! She’s just one of the sweetest people and one of the loveliest writers I know, but her posts are also always there to remind that I should be happy as I am and for who I am <3.

@starfisharchives: Sara came as surprise too! I don’t remember what story she started reading (it’s usually always Pastel Colors) but she started talking to me and I haven’t regretted it since! She’s a very kind person with who is just supportive of everyone she talks to! 

@lilypalmer1987: Lily and I don’t really talk, but she’s really been there since the beginning! She’s so supportive of every story I have written since I started with Pastel Colors and sometimes, I just go back and re-read her messages to get me through the day ;A;. 

@otomesweetheart: tomey is a dear friend of mine and while she wasn’t into marvel, i sort of dragged her into this but she has been nothing but supportive and a very lovely person always reading something and telling me what she liked when we talk <3

I don’t talk to many people, but I read a lot and there are a lot of great writers on this website that I have just come to love:

@abovethesmokestacks @delicatelyherdreams @buckychrist @softhairbarnes @softbrooklyn @invisibleanonymousmonsters @ginatoldmeso @soldatbarnes @justsomebucky @sgtjbuccky @bucky-at-bedtime @mattaretto @eufeme @interestedbystanderwrites @viktordrago @chrevastan @deamstellarus @evanstarff @sweetboybucky @officallytheduchess @barnesrogersvstheworld @buckyofthemyscira @buckyforbreakfast @notimetoblog @writingcroissant @wxntersoldiers @itsbuckysworld @jamesbvck @velvetbarnes @futuremrsb-r-main @marvelous-avengers @sebashtiansatan @kentuckybarnes @buckysbeardliness @bucky-smiles @wonderlandmind4 @beckzorz @supernovasandcoronas @trashpanda-barnes @cordytriestowrite @puppy-bucky @whitewolfbumble

As we start a new year, consider checking them out and find something new to read or simply just send some love about your fav story <3

Thank you for your support and taking the time to read anything on this little blog of mine! May there be more stories to tell next year as well! 🌟

Rules: 15 questions, 15 mutuals

Tagged by @kat-lives

1. Are you named after anyone?

No, but it’s fun to convince hardcore Potter fans that I am ;)

2. When was the last time you cried?

Of laughter, a few days ago. From sadness or similar...just said a new record of 7 months or so (if not counting having to say goodbye to my SO)

3. Do you have kids?

Does my husband count? If not, then none.

4. Do you use sarcasm a lot?

It’s like a second language.

5. What’s the first thing you notice about people?

I’m overly attentive to their mood/mental need. On a more physical level, my nurse training kicks in and I don’t just notice one thing, but everything (even if it’s not relevant).

6. What’s your eye color?

Sort of blueish/grey.

7. Scary movie or happy ending?

Define scary movie, cause I’m so NOT into horror, but I love thrills and mysteries. Also a harsh movie doesn’t have to rule out a happy ending, nor is a happy ending required for a movie to be good. I think what I value the most is a thought through plotline with no lose ends.

8. Any special talents?

Staying alive the last 12 years...so stubbornness?

9. Where were you born?

In Sapporo, Japan. Only lived there a few years (kinda moved around a lot all my life). Bonus: I’ve had properly registered adresses in 5 different countries.

10. What are your hobbies?

In depends on how busy I am with studying/internship and how I feel. I love to read and draw, but now adays I spend more time on relatively new hobbies such as writing and D&D...and a series or five when they become available in my country.

11. Have you any pets?

Yes and no. How can it be both? I have a wonderful ball python (called Solina), but because I’ve had to move to my country, leaving my husband behind with her, I technically don’t have her, I guess? I do miss both hubby and danger noodle and would loooove to have a billion other pets if only my lifestyle and allergies would allow it.

12. What sports do you play/have you played?

Absolutely no sport currently, though I know I should to help on my depression (and I could do with generally getting fitter). When I was little I played handball for a bit and later badminton. In my late teens/early 20′s I spent some time doing my own thing at the gym, which was quite nice and meditative.

13. How tall are you?

1m75...I think...

14. Favorite subject in school?

That depended on the country I was on. In DK it was most often history and maybe some language (which depending on grade). In Italy I adored our science teacher maestro Pépè, but none of the actual subjects were awesome. Canada shown me a new appreciation for science, acting and English. Then comes uni (temporarily) and nursing school with particular cognitive development in relation to communication and sciences respectively.

15. Dream job?

It seems to be being a nurse. I’ve not decided on a specialized field (and won’t have to yet), so am hoping for some years of general/basic experience to begin with.

I used to think I wanted to help people with aphasia (particularly helping them reestablish means of communication), then (because of own experiences) it became nursing specialized for the psychiatric field...but that just hit too hard. Either way though, it’s always been about making people feel better some way or another.

...

So...the rule says tag 15, but as usual I’m not going to, however I’m going to tag a handful and then you decide on your own if you want to answer or not (regardless of tag even).

Rules: 15 question, 15 mutuals 

Tagged by @velvetbarnes​

1. Are you named after anyone?

I am kind of named after my mom, my name is Dulce and that means candy in spanish and her name is Candice. But my middle name is after my lita in Mexico.  

2. When was the last time you cried?

HAHAHaHA  I cried on Thursday because life is crashing down like the Hindenburg 

3. Do you have kids?

LMAO nope, I’m 21, but I dont want to have children ever really. If I had to choose a time it would be when I am financially established and maybe like 30

4. Do you use sarcasm a lot?

My first form of defense

All My Stars [4] | b. barnes

SUMMARY: Bucky knew the minute he hired his new assistant, he was screwed. When she got engaged, he was double-screwed.

PAIRING: CEO!Bucky x fem!reader

WARNINGS: Language, angst, fluff, and copious amounts of each

NOTES:

Part Four.

Working for Bucky Barnes proved to be a pleasant challenge. The man’s mind was Swiss cheese, you realized about three months into the job, and it surprised you that he could even function as the company’s CEO. But then you surmised that that was why you were working for him anyways. As you spent more time with him, you found yourself scheduling routine things such as dentist appointments, physicals, and haircuts when it slipped Bucky’s mind—which was always.

Such as now. You were leaning on the door frame to his office, watching your boss groan and grumble and pitch a tantrum that would rival your young nephew’s. All over a haircut.

“It’ll take you five minutes,” you urged, fighting to keep an amused smile off your face as he tipped his head back and whined. “Bucky.”

“What?” he groused, tilting his head back up and causing his hair to flop into his face. Raking a hand through it, he pushed it off his forehead, and you had to quietly clear your throat as the attractive gesture had your stomach churning.

“You’re starting to look homeless,” you replied bluntly. Any other boss you would never speak to in such a manner, but you learned early on that Bucky was a very informal, often casual kind of boss. At first it threw you for a loop, leaving you stumbling and stammering your way around a conversation, but you quickly found your footing, surprising Bucky with your equally-quick wit and sass.

“Gee thanks. You know, at first I thought you were really sweet but after that, now I’m not so sure,” he snarked. But he was getting out of his chair anyways.

Blushing under his backhanded compliment, you crossed your arms over your chest and settled for raising an eyebrow.

“Apologies for that false advertising, but you get what you get. Besides, you have that gala coming up next week. You could use a trim.” As Bucky stood before you, it took great restraint to not reach up and run your hands through his hair.

For the past two weeks, there had been....moments between the two of you, small, barely noticeable things such as lingering looks, (not so) accidental touches such as the brush of a hand along your back when he was walking by you or a hand on your shoulder for no apparent reason whatsoever, subtle little flirtatious remarks passed back and forth.

On the one hand, it thrilled you to have this secret little game between you and your boss, and then reality would rear its ugly head.

He was your boss, automatically squashing any unprofessional hopes or desires for something more. You tried really hard not to be disappointed by that fact.

“Fine,” he grumbled. “Hold down the fort for me?”

“Don’t I always? Go on.”

Once Bucky was in the elevator and gone, you sat back at your desk and scrolled through your phone, choosing your Lord of the Rings soundtrack playlist and keeping the volume low. It was a guilty pleasure of yours and often helped to ground you, helped you focus. Today was no different. Between swaying your arms and upper body to the symphonies, you managed to send out a handful of emails, brainstorm more networking ideas, and also scheduled Bucky for a physical because he was seriously overdue.

“Howard Shore? I’m impressed.”

You jumped two inches off your chair with a yelp, spinning around to face the new voice. Six feet tall, broad, blonde and handsome as hell, the stranger was smirking down at you, blue eyes alight in amusement.

“I’m so sorry! I thought I was here alone,” you stammered, cheeks flaming. You pressed your hands to them in attempt to cool them down. The stranger chuckled and stepped closer. He was so fit his suit was skin-tight, snug over the muscles of his chest and his thighs.

“Don’t apologize, I enjoyed the show.” He grinned wider when you covered your face with your hands. “I’m here to see Bucky. Is he in?”

Sliding your hands down your face, you composed yourself. “I’m sorry, he isn’t. He stepped out about ten minutes ago for an appointment. He shouldn’t be long though. Would you like to wait or can I leave him a message?”

“I can wait. You must be his new assistant. I’m Steve.” He stepped forward and pulled a hand out of his pocket to extend it towards you.

“Peggy’s Steve?” you chirped. He smiled and nodded. “It’s so nice to finally meet you! I’ve heard so much about you from Bucky and Peggy.”

“That’s not good,” he joked. “Y/N, right? Peggy and Bucky have had nothing but nice things to say about you.”

“Hmm, Peggy and Bucky have mentioned me? Sounds conspiratorial.” You grinned to let him know you were joking, and he snorted.

“So you’re a Tolkien fan huh?”

Eyebrows raising in interest, you nodded. “Honestly, who isn’t? He created an entire world just from being in the trenches of World War I. The man’s a genius in the literature world.”

The two of you ended up in a long discussion of Tolkien’s work, and when Bucky returned to see his assistant and his best friend reenacting some sword-fighting scene, he couldn’t help but subtly record it. He got about four minutes’ worth of footage before Steve looked over and the two of you dropped your weapons.

Bucky smirked. “Hard at work, Y/N?”

“Bucky! Um, shit, I’m s-sorry. We got a little, um, carried away?” You were sure your face was eight shades of red as you straightened your blouse. Bucky’s smirk only widened as he sauntered over to your desk.

“I see you’ve met the punk himself.” Bucky stepped closer to Steve, embracing the large man with a wide grin.

“Jerk,” Steve muttered, slapping Bucky’s back once. “Y/N and I were discussing Tolkien, if you must know.”

Bucky nearly made himself dizzy with how hard he rolled his eyes. He liked reading, he did, but Steve was an all-out bookworm. Every time Bucky saw him, which regrettably wasn’t as often as he should, the punk had a new book in his hand. Bucky wasn’t sure how he found the time.

“What are you doing here, punk?” Bucky asked, leaning against the top of your desk. Taking it as your cue, you sat back down at your computer and resumed your work.

“Lunch? Or have you eaten already?” Steve asked, shoving his hands in his pockets.

Bucky drew a blank—had he eaten today? A quick glance at your shaking head had him answering no to Steve’s question.

“You do have a meeting at 3:30, but you should have enough time if you go now,” came your automatic reply, head ducked over your planner. Steve smirked at Bucky’s lit-up expression, and the two men headed out.

But Bucky was suddenly leaning over your desk again, pointing down at your planner. “One more thing before I forget, you’re attending that gala with me next week. No exceptions, no excuses.”

With a wink, he was gone again, leaving you with your mouth slack-jawed and cheeks pink.
