“And your Quarterback, Steve Rogers!” someone with a microphone shouted and their voices echoed around the packed stadium. Eighty thousand people cheered for him and Steve raised a hand in a wave to acknowledge them, but the sound rang hollow in his ears. 

The only two voices he cared about weren’t there.

The Voice, that's John. And of course, of course John went mad after he dosed himself with the serum. Didn't they all, each in their own way? Get twisted?

The serum, no matter what version, needs a better goddamn label. Poison by any other name...

One a-penny, two a-penny, hot cross bones…

All their worst qualities, dialed up to eleven. Schmidt's egotism. Steve's martyrdom. Walker's obsession. And as for Bucky?

James Buchanan Barnes?

Craziest of them all. That fucker just won't fucking die.

Wow, what a week. I've been reading A LOT and I have some new bookmarks, but today I'm returning to regular programming.

Which means returning to @voxofthevoid! This one kind of sounds like standard smut fare: sex pollened Steve who's holding out until he sees Bucky. And yes, the smut is great. BUT the feelings ❤️😭❤️ - oh my heart.

the hand you want to hold is a weapon (and you're nothing but skin) by @voxofthevoid

Because this is a Bucky is the Winter Soldier and can't remember fic. Is Steve wanting him, James, in the now, or who he once was? Truly amazing flangsty fare. Bucky/James wants this, but doesn't think Steve really wants him. See tags and summary below and take care!

The @kocuria art is stellar as always - this one includes my favourite line of the fic... his a body made for forgetting 💔

“You look so perfect when you’re blissed out. I can never get enough of seeing you like that.”

Steve stumbled down the stairs, hoping this wasn’t a trick of some kind. But sure enough, there was a silhouetted outline of someone visible through the frosted glass pane in the front door. Steve fumbled with the lock and wrenched the door open to see…

“Bucky!”

“Hiya, Steve. Happy Thanksgiving.”

A birthday ko’mmission for @murphsxs - the ask was “Canadian lumberjack Bucky” 😇

.

He had no photographs of Bucky. If it hadn’t been for the official ones he’d found in the SSR files, he might have thought that he’d never even existed at all. He’d had nothing of Bucky’s at all when he died. Luckily, Steve didn’t need to look at a photograph to remember that face. He drew it from memory. The crinkles around Bucky’s eyes when he smiled. The curve of his lips. His dimples.

When he had finished it, he laid the sketch next to him, face-up so that Bucky could see the stars.

for The Devil and Captain Rogers, a @stuckybangs collab with @ms-zilia that’s just started to post! 

Fresh out of the ice, Steve finds himself struggling to adjust to his new circumstances, desperately lonely and missing Bucky more than ever. So when the Guardian of the Soulworld visits him and offers to give him one person back from the dead, he jumps at the chance to get Bucky back.
