Summary
Steve works in a Brooklyn dive bar. A tall, guarded guy comes in to drink at regular intervals. He always sits in the back corner.
Steve leaves him alone. He looks like a guy who deserves some peace and quiet.
He does find out the stranger's name is Bucky.
Finds out what he likes to drink.
And little by little, conversation happens. Connection happens.Until one day a cock-flock of dudebros comes in (i made up cock-flock, but really, is that not their collective term) and the heckling goes up to eleven once they’re good and drunk. Bucky gets asked to take it outside. Steve will have none of that, thankyouverymuch.
.
A tale of love and hope in unlikely places, sprinkled with a bit of PTSD, and the occasional sarcastic quip. -

Summary
*
"Setting a solid barrier between himself and the others was borne out of necessity: Jake could not keep them safe if they were in the way. Steven was to be kept oblivious, that was non-negotiable, and Marc carried far too much guilt for Jake to be effective. The wall was vital, and it worked well for years. But everything was different now; Steven was no longer kept in the dark, and Marc, while not totally over the whole guilt thing, was beginning to come to terms with what was and was not his to carry. Keeping Marc and Steven at arm's length had been vital in keeping the whole thing functioning, but Jake would be lying if he said he didn't also enjoy the hell out of it. And Jake was many things, but he was no liar. No, he reveled in his freedom and fuck-the-rules attitude. But the sands beneath his feet had shifted, and he was beginning to see that maybe it was time to grow the hell up. It was a tough pill to swallow, but Jake wasn’t out here joyriding. And no matter how satisfying keeping that barrier up had felt, he knew it came at a cost, and maybe the time had come for Jake to reconsider his place in the world, both figuratively and literally speaking."*
