    Summary

    There's a lot of expectation attached to Steve Rogers' name. It's taken him years to prove his own worth - that he's made it so far in the USNA on his own merit and not just because of his father. He's close though - there are only a few more months until he graduates and gets to stand on his own two feet. It's taken a lot of effort to get there, and a lot of sacrifices.

    Bucky's beyond the point of expectation. When your father and grandfather have both been President - and your mother nurses political ambitions of her own - brilliance is a foregone conclusion. He's just counting down the final months of his confinement to the glass cage of the White House and he's determined to put that whole world behind him.

    But as the days standing between them and their dreams dwindle, Steve comes to realize he might have made one sacrifice too many, and Bucky learns that his freedom comes at a cost he's never going to be able to pay.

    Summary

    “Bucky?” Steve calls softly, and Bucky halts, going preternaturally still.

    Steve finds himself thrown back to that day on the bridge, staring at the assailant who’d worn his best friend’s face, a flame of hope fluttering in his chest.

    It’s with similar feeling that he watches Bucky slowly raise his eyes to meet Steve’s, and a similar agony pierces through him as Bucky stares at Steve with the same blank eyes of the Soldier.

    “Steve,” Bucky says, after a too-long pause, brow ever-so-slightly furrowed.

    His gaze goes to Sam as if he’s seeking reassurance. As if he needs confirmation that what he’s seeing is real. Only after Sam has offered a subtle nod does he look back at Steve, face pale as milk, and very empty.

    “How— Why are you… here?”

     

    Or,

    Steve's epic stupidity and bad decision-making have unintended consequences.

    Summary

    You can't have amnesia if you're not supposed to remember.

    ("I don't want to forget you," Bucky says wistfully.

    Steve looks half-asleep, but he blinks and lifts his head. "What do you mean?" he asks. His smile is puzzled. "Why would you forget me?"

    "After maintenance, when they'll wipe me and put me in Cryo," Bucky explains. "I'll forget you again, and I don't want to. You're the best handler I've ever had.")

    Summary

    The shivering figure in the cell corner had stopped screaming now that Natasha had stopped speaking to him, and instead was just shuffling himself helplessly into his corner. Shudders raced randomly over his body like electric shocks, making his half-twisted spine twitch under his skin.

    “What did he say?” Tony asked.

    Natasha closed her eyes. “Numbers. He was repeating numbers.”

    “What numbers?”

    “Three two five five seven zero three eight.”

    “Which means?”

    She opened her eyes, the green flashing.

    “What numbers would any prisoner be chanting? It’s a serial number, dumbass.”

    Tony already had Jarvis running the numbers through a military database, and before she had finished speaking, Jarvis had fed a name to him.

    Tony slipped his helmet down to stare blankly at Nat.

    “...It can’t really be him,” he said, as if hoping she’d agree and have a different, reasonable explanation. “He shouldn’t have survived that long.”

    “I know.”

    “He CAN’T have survived that long.”

    “Steve did,” she said softly.
