    Summary

    “You’ve been doing good.  This is just a bad day.”

    “I just keep having those.” he says.  John nods, reaching over to put his arm over Bob’s shoulder.  It’s not as comforting as it should be. “I feel so fucking stupid.” Bob growls.

    “You’re not stupid, Bob.” John insists.
    ---

    Bob's memory problems get worse before they get better.

    Summary

    ♫♪ I don't care where you've been, how many miles, I still love you. ♫♪

    Bob doesn't always know what to say, but he can do his best. So he launches the blanket up in the air and sinks down, letting the duvet settle over them like a shield. Something he used to do when he was a kid, a way to stave off the shouting, the bangs and crashes.

    "What are you doing?" Bucky rumbles, but he stays put even as Bob scoots forward so their legs are pressed up against each other.

    "This is a magical blanket," He says, the same words he would say to himself as a boy, "Nothing bad can get in."

    ~ Or the one in which a single conversation about lava lamps makes all the difference in the world.

    Summary

    The Spider didn't want a new Handler, but the Spider did not get a say. The Soldier had a new mission and the Spider wasn't allowed, even though the Spider was Ready Status: Optimal. The Handler had new conditions, and the Spider did not like them.

    ~Alternatively~

    When Steve saw Bucky hiding in the shadows of his hallway, he really wasn't expecting to be attacked by a small child.

    Summary

    And Bucky.

    Stone-faced, silent, stoic Bucky.

    Stoic, sure — except Peter would actually call him an asshole, considering the last time Peter trapped him with his running mouth, Bucky held a hand up until Peter stuttered to a stop, then watched as Bucky walked away without another glance.

    Hadn’t said a thing, but managed to crush Peter’s soul into actual dust.

    Or, the one where Peter can't turn his brain off, but Bucky can.
