Artist Hands and Criminal Intent
Steve Rogers is an artist trying to make it work in Brooklyn. Things have been going alright until recently, with his boyfriend ignoring him and falling out of the picture - then one Bucky Barnes shows up at his door to inform him that his boyfriend is not only dead but left quite a bit of money owed to a local gang, of which Bucky works for - and he is here to collect. Steve has to either take up Bucky's unconventional offer of repayment or find himself in a very bad way. Time will tell on whether or not Bucky's place in his life will be ultimately bad, or maybe just a bit of the good he has been looking for.
Having to face the consequences of a terrible misunderstanding, Steve ends up finding himself temporarily placed in a facility of juvenile delinquents. Struggling to adjust and missing Bucky dearly, he tried to manage this new situation.
Short story full of fluff and the tiniest bit of angst.
Mischief Yielding Glorious Results
Bucky has been pining away for one Steve Rogers since before they even hit puberty, and that hadn't changed since either one of them had woken up on the wrong side of the 21st century. Loki, tired of Bucky's whining, decides to take things into his own hands, hopefully getting both men to finally go after what they want.
war is loud, war is silent
Bucky's memories have been coming back in increments. It is getting harder and harder for him to separate his memories from his dreams, only Steve can bring him clarity. But he's afraid that some of the dreams he has been having are just that - dreams. What will Steve say when he asks about all these intimate things that he hopes aren't just fantasies?
Steve has been on edge trying to find Bucky ever since he escaped HYDRA. Once the Avengers manage to find him and keep him in the tower he is willing to do almost anything to see him again. When Fury reveals to Steve what Bucky had been carrying around with him all this time, Steve finally begins to feel hope.
Bucky finds himself stuck in a very awkward situation and can see no other solutions than asking Steve for help. Maybe it won't turn out as awful as he expects it to. (it doesn't)
I play a lot of Stardew Valley and this sprung up.
Steve Rogers is a war vet who moved to upstate New York and bought a farm. He got a dog and worked the land until he built up a life for himself. One day he finds a young Bucky Barnes passed out on the side of the road, far from anywhere. Through a series of events, he ends up caring for the man and bringing him into his life in the only way he can make any sense out of.
I am bad at summaries. Like, really bad.
Steve is a farmer. Bucky is a lonely baby with nowhere to go. And there is a dog.
Bucky accidentally tells Steve he loves him after having his it for decades. Steve doesn't react to the information the way Bucky fears he will. Also, Shuri is engaged in shenanigans.
Summaries. Not my forte.
