“Save a Horse, Ride a Captain” (T, 2k) by galwednesday

Bucky tapped him on the shoulder, swaying back and forth a little as he waited for the man to turn around. “Hello,” he said, and then promptly forgot what else he was going to say, because this guy was fucking beautiful. “Wow. Good face.”

Two of the guy’s friends, a man wearing a suit that fit so well it had to be bespoke and a man with a cute little gap between his front teeth, started cracking up. The petite redhead sitting next to them cocked her head to the side and pulled her phone out of her handbag. Beautiful Face just looked kind of pained, so Bucky redirected. He was a gentleman. He could take a hint. No hitting on beautiful guys who were uncomfortable with that sort of thing, no matter how lickable their jawlines were.

“Hello,” he repeated, doing his best to mind his manners. “I’m very sorry to bother you. Can I have a piggy-back ride?”

+ Shrunkyclunks. Captain America carries drunk Bucky back home and makes him coffee in the morning. The Howling Commandos are thrilled

Seventy years ago, Bucky Barnes was in love with Steve Rogers and could only express his love for him under the misguided courage of drunken nights.

“20th Century Limited” (E, 52k) by Speranza

"Where am I? Where is this?" and he was in Brooklyn, he was on a beach, the train was shaking around him. He was in the plane, ice splintering up onto the windshield. He was in a tank, tubes trailing from his face, from his groin. Christ, he was cold. There was still ice on his fingers. He was in the Grand Canyon. He was in Times Square. This couldn't be Times Square. Where the hell was this? "Tell me! Where am I, who are you, where's—" —Bucky?

+ TFA to CW. Everyone with the serum gets linked together

“Open Book” (E, 3k) by mcwho

“In Your Head” (T, 47k) by sara_holmes

Getting Bucky back is possibly the best thing to happen to Steve ever. Even if Bucky is not exactly the fella he used to be, keeping him close is definitely #1 on Steve's to-do list. That being said, ending up with Bucky's consciousness riding shotgun in his brain is probably too close for even Steve.

+ Post WS. With Deadpool’s intervention, the boys take turns in each other’s heads

“memory, rewritten” (M, 9k) by augustbird

The only way to remove the trigger words is by resetting the associations in Bucky's mind. Unfortunately, Steve is the only one who can help.

+ Post CW. Sharing memories and finally getting their happy ending

“they’re gonna send us to prison for jerks” (T, 24k) by napricot

“Hey Steve, this is Jack Murphy, our other neighbor. Jack, this is Steve.” Steve looked at Sam a little wildly, expecting to see—he didn’t even know, but some reaction other than Sam’s usual easy friendliness. And there was something there, but it was just the twitch of Sam’s mouth that said he found something hilarious and he was trying not to show it. Was this Sam’s idea of a joke, or a prank? Because this guy—behind the glasses and mustache, Steve could have sworn—well, he looked like Bucky.

+ Post WS, Bucky’s made a new life for himself as a math teacher. Hijinks abound, with a sequel of Bucky’s POV for extra giggles

“Pedantic Affectations” (M, 15k) by relenafanel

Steve Rogers: khaki pants and ugly tweed wearing art history professor specializing in historical queer art (by day). Is actually Captain America, vigilante and the bane of Detective Barnes’s existence (by night).

Detective Bucky Barnes: A very clever cop who suspects something is up with Steve. Is frustrated that Captain America exists and is dedicated to finding him because he loves a good puzzle.

So, how does Steve convince Bucky that he's too boring to be Captain America? Go on a date with him.

(Steve is kind of really, really bad at this secret identity thing)

+ Modern AU where Steve is professor by day, vigilante by night, and a disaster all around

“Introduction to Fake Dating Your Best Friend 101″ (T, 24k) by crinklefries

Bucky stares at his best friend as though he’s absolutely lost what’s left of his dumbass mind.

“Excuse me?” he asks dumbly.

Steve sighs and sags back onto the couch, covering his face dramatically with one large, well-manicured hand.

“Dean Coulson thinks we’re dating. And gay. But like, for each other. And now I need you to fake date me so I can convince the Chancellor to fund my research.”

+ Modern AU where they’re both professors who fake date and pine for each other

“good on my own (needed me)” (E, 11k) by mcwho

There are some mistakes that could be made by anybody. Anybody. Bucky taught high school pretty much his whole life, and that was fine, those were kids, and he knew all of them anyway, which meant there was very little chance of him accidentally fucking any of his students during an impulsive post-marital-breakdown Grindr hook-up. Which is exactly what he had done with Steve.

+ Modern AU where Bucky’s a college professor and found out his summer grindr hookup is a student at his university
