    Summary

    “I thought you said you had a golden retriever named Rogers.”

    Barnes’ eyes immediately went wide. “What the fuck, Barton? Shut the fuck up,” he hissed at him before waving one hand in front of his neck in a slicing motion. And, Clint knew that look all too well.

    “Bucky!” Someone called from somewhere behind the archer. “Did you tell your teammates that I was a dog?”

    Or the one where the Winter Soldier has a secret boyfriend

    Summary

    ‘Bucky, do you know why I came up to you in the bar tonight?’

    Bucky shakes his head. Because he really doesn’t.

    ‘Because to me, you look perfect.’ Steve’s eyes are so dark and his pale skin is flushed pink. ‘You look strong and solid and your thighs look incredible in those jeans and this –’ Steve runs his fingertips across the skin of Bucky’s stomach where his cropped t-shirt rides up ‘– belly is just perfect, Bucky. You’re fucking beautiful.’ Steve’s hands are on his face now. ‘Your cheek bones, this cleft in your chin,’ Steve’s fingers follow his words.

    -----

    Bucky Barnes is single, 30 and gay in New York - totally over the hill. So he's pretty surprised when a blonde Adonis named Steve picks him up and takes him home for the night. He's even more surprised when aliens invade New York and it turns out that Steve is Captain America.

    Six years later, Steve Rogers breaks down. He hands over his shield and retreats to Tony's house in a forest by a lake. Waiting to greet him, with ribbons in his hair, is Bucky Barnes - caretaker and carpenter. A man Steve has never forgotten.

    Can Steve find the courage to love Bucky? Will Steve have to sacrifice their life together to save the universe?

    Summary

    "And what did you make of Dr. Smartypants? Quite a way with words, don't you think?"

    "He's something," Steve hedged. "Was hoping you could shed some light."

    "Where would be the fun in that?" Natasha chuckled. "Have I ever sent you on a wild goose chase?"

    He sighed again, heavily. "No."

    "Have I ever failed to have your back?"

    Steve grunted at the irony. She'd been assigned to his detail just after he'd thawed out. The word he'd use to describe that time would be 'suffocating'. But then somehow, over the years, the chokehold had become an embrace. "What kind of minefield am I walking into here? Can you at least tell me that?"

    As always, Natasha heard what he didn't ask her. "No. But I think you should let him fill you in on the rest himself. He is a historian, after all. Don't want to steal all of his thunder."

    Steve laughed despite himself. "So you think I should do this?"

    "I think it's been a long time since you've had a real adventure." Steve would have rolled his eyes at her mom-ing him if it wasn't, well, the truth.

    Or: Steve receives a letter from Dr. J.B. Barnes, Brooklyn Historical Society. Except not quite that J.B. Barnes.

    Summary

    The Light kingdom’s victory over the Dark kingdom was a monumental moment in history, and with the capture and beheading of the corrupt Dark king, the eternal war between both kingdoms was finally brought to an end.

    Peace came at last, new and fragile, and Bucky would be damned if he let a certain rogue Darkmage go on his merry way and ruin everything that he had fought so desperately for.

    Summary

    Steve did what had to be done to save his unit. He doesn't regret his decision but the consequences are being to wear him down in ways he hadn't expected.

    Bucky Barnes is good at his job. That is when his boss gives him all the right information, which is rare. Which is why instead of picking up a delicate package to escort to California, like he'd been told, he was now escorting a not so delicate man. The problem with that is Bucky is unsure if he's protecting the man from everyone else or everyone else from the man. It seems only time will tell...

    Or the one where Steve is infected and at the end of his rope while Bucky tries to find a way to convince him to hold on.
