Bigger Than Us by [personal profile] monicawoe , M (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Bucky's in jail for breaking into the Museum of Natural History after hours.

we were in screaming color by fakeplasticlily, T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Bucky recovers his memories via post-it note, and Steve plans a special birthday celebration.

Theme 3: Meet-Cutes and Modern Romance

I Still Remember by redsteele, T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Bucky is 10 years old and still going by Jane. She hates wearing skirts and she hates wearing dresses and she hates her name. There’s just something so uncomfortable about people looking at her and calling her “a pretty little lady.”

American Son; or Bye Bye, Blackbird by basset_voyager, T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Kate Bishop @notthehawkguy tons of AMAZING women served in WWII but I don't think James Barnes was one of them.

God bless America)  by sirona, T, and Have Your Wicked Way With Me (The Something in the Woodshed Remix)  by [personal profile] lanyon , T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes; Clint Barton/Phil Coulson). You know that log-ripping scene? The one that is the only part of Age of Ultron that actually happened? Have some fic.

International House of Stockholm, The Great Christmas Shopping Excursion of 1999, Some Plans Are Stupid, Better To Hug You With, You Only Want To Socialize (But I Don’t Think We Should), and Annual HYDRA Thanksgiving Potluck, by [personal profile] lauralot , G or T (no romantic relationships).

Theme 3: Steve de-Serumed or de-Aged

the shape i’m in  by orphan account, T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). They say it’s temporary and Bucky swallows. Steve’s holding his chin like he’s got somethin’ to prove. There are some things Bucky’s still fuzzy on. Blank spaces and bridges that haven’t quite repaired themselves yet. But seeing this, Steve in an examination room, sitting on his scrawny butt with his jaw set and his eyes hard, it’s a painfully familiar sight.

our winter  and thaws to spring  by liionne, M (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes - kind of). Hydra makes a clone of Steve to act as the Soldier’s handler.

Tuesday  by zetsubonna, M (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes, Steve Rogers/Sam Wilson). Steve is magically de-aged and the Winter Soldier steps in to help, the funny version

Summer Don’t Own Me No More by [personal profile] alby_mangroves  and [personal profile] nonymos , E (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Bucky Barnes, weary soldier, illegal immigrant, sarcastic sex worker. Steve Rogers, miracle of science, lonely man, disillusioned cop. Both of them on a collision course in this brave new world, like that's not gonna end in sex and explosions.

For the week of Friday, December 21, 2018

Feels-y

Pure as the driven slush  by Odsbodkins, E (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Bucky finds out that Steve is going to queer bars. It takes him a painfully long time to figure out how he feels about this.

like setting off fire crackers at midnight  and wires crossed in the heart  by what_alchemy, both E (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). The one where the story is the same one you know, but Bucky is a woman.

Here I Dreamt I Was A Soldier  by SugarFey, M (Natasha Romanoff/Clint Barton, Carol Danvers/Jessica Drew). The women of Marvel work at Bletchley Park.

Winter’s Children  by Neery, E (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). The Winter Soldier and a whole bunch of Hydra-trained, child clones of Steve.

Funny

Well, That’s One Way to Come Out of the Closet  by sparkling_cider, T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Steve is nineteen and skinny and asthmatic and he's just been rejected by some girl whose name Bucky doesn't even remember. Bucky, as Steve's best friend, has the semi-official duty of reassuring Steve that She Doesn't Deserve Him and She Has a Mean Older Brother and She's Ugly Anyway.

Even the clearest water, if deep enough, can drown  by lanyon, M (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Bucky and Tony accidentally become soul-bonded. They are not happy about it.

The Comedy Is That It’s Serious  by [personal profile] musesfool , T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Steve’s efforts to apprehend the Winter Soldier are complicated by sex pollen.

Dream Dancing  by [personal profile] debwalsh , G (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Steve and Bucky move to a small town and (re)learn to dance.

you just need to breathe to feel my heart against yours now  T and i will love you without a single string attached M by quidhitch (Steve Rogers/Tony Stark). Steve and Tony get engaged, then married. That’s it. That’s the fic.

Sway through the crowd to an empty space  by lanyon, T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Five tropes that didn’t get Steve and Bucky together and one that did.

Friday, December 7, 2018.  Various ships, newer and older works.  Cross posted from my tumblr , which I won't be updating much in future.

The Nature of Dust  by inkvoices, M (Clint Barton/Natasha Romanoff). This is not normally a main pairing I’d read for its own sake, but I was really drawn to the premise - Dustbowl AU, travelling circus, dark/supernatural elements.

This Bitter Earth  by CloudAtlas, T (Clint Barton/Natasha Romanoff). The previous fic (The Nature of Dust) led me directly to this one. Clint and Natasha at the end of the world, climate change dystopia.

too many fish in the sea by mmtion, T (Steve Rogers/Tony Stark). There’s a negative space wedgie, and then Steve has his hands full with multiple alternate Tonys, including Cowboy Tony, Super Villain Tony, Drag Queen Tony, and, of course, heavily pregnant and foul-mouthed Tony.

Form 42-D/85 - Form 42-D/86 by raiining, M (Phil Coulson/Clint Barton). Marriages entered into for the purpose of active operations will be respected by S.H.I.E.L.D. and all other national and international government agencies until such time as Form 42-D/86 is filed at the completion of said operations. So what if Clint never bothered to file form 42-D/86, and never got around to asking Phil if he had filed it?

Robot Trip by copperbadge, T (Tony Stark/Pepper Potts, Tony Stark & Steve Rogers). Tony is driving from Malibu to Manhattan with a robot in the back seat and Captain America riding escort at Pepper's behest. What could possibly go wrong?

To a few, it'll be grief; To the law, a relief; But it's death for Bonnie and Clyde by haipollai, not rated but I’d call it T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes; Clint Barton/Bobbi Morse). The best post-CACW fic written pre-CACW that I have yet to read.

The Naked Gun by sirona, M (Clint Barton/Phil Coulson). Phil thinks with possibly a bit too much smugness that they certainly hadn’t expected to encounter a denuded guy holding a gun and shooting straight. “Villains these days,” he mutters disappointedly.

Men do not live only by fighting evils by acaramelmacchiato, G (no pairing). Sharon Carter’s first year with SHIELD involves a lot of laundry and lying. Plus various darkly comedic adventures of the Winter Soldier in Soviet Russia: And we shall joyfully tell one another everything that has happened, T (no pairing); But some of us are looking at the stars, M (Winter Soldier/Yuri Gagarin); Time is what keeps the light from reaching us, T (Winter Soldier/Steve Rogers; Steve Rogers/Peggy Carter); and Repetition of Position, G (Winter Soldier & Natasha Romanoff).

do you have room by haipollai, author didn’t assign a rating but I’d call it T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Post-Winter Soldier Road Trip of Recovery.

The Last Two in a Long, Long Line  by visiblemarket, T (Clint Barton/Phil Coulson). "I thought we'd be done with all this." Clint can practically hear the way his eyes are crinkling, that slight, sweet smirk of his. It's distracting even when Clint can't see it. "Huh?" "Patching you up in the middle of the night. Now that I'm not your handler anymore."

almost heaven  by mcwho, T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). The house is covered in Halloween decorations, top to bottom. Bucky is what some might call a festivity whore. By ‘some’, he mainly means Sam. Bucky prefers to think of himself as enthusiastic. If there’s an occasion coming up, and stores are selling decorations to commemorate it, well, a thorough celebration is only respectful.

love is blind (steve and bucky are just dumb)  by talkplaylove and hawkguyz, T (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes). Steve and Bucky are oblivious idiots who don’t know yet that they are dating each other.
