#sfs masterlist

So many great fics and artwork in week one! So many Silver Fox Steves to choose from with more to come. Keep an eye on our Collection on AO3 for more updates as Week Two gets underway!

Week One Works:

this love, cradled between my ribs by @wayward-lives featuring art by VeroCaroline

Even if Steve wanted to… pursue James, romantically, he doubts his interest will be reciprocated. James is young, and beautiful, just a couple of years out of university with his whole life ahead of him. Steve, who's more than twenty years older, divorced and cynical, with hair that's more grey than blonde these days and a body that can no longer keep up with the strenuous workouts he was so fond of in his younger years, isn't a good fit for him.

Or: Steve falls in love with the new receptionist.

He's Out of My League by @humapuma featuring art by @roadsidelunatic

“What should I call you then?” Steve asked, taking another step as his eyes roamed over Bucky’s body. “Honey?” He asked in a silky voice. “Baby?” Was… was Steve Rogers, Captain of the Massachusetts Rugby Team, winner of ten US Cups, the literal epitome of a silver fox, actually flirting with him? “Sweetheart?” Steve continued and Bucky released a shaky breath. Steve’s smile grew and his eyes flicked to Bucky’s lips. “You like that, huh?” He stood in Bucky’s space, biting his lip and crowding even closer. “Like being called sweet things?”

Bucky’s first season with the New York Rugby Club has come to an end, and he thought the adventure was over until next season. That was, at least, before Steve Rogers - Bucky’s walking wet dream - came strolling into the locker room, giving him all sorts of mixed signals.

(Not A) One Night Romance by @oh-i-swear-writes featuring art by @gotlostonmywayhome

Since being widowed ten years ago, Steve Rogers has been pretty busy raising the three children he was left with and really, he's been fine with that. Unfortunately, his well-intentioned-yet-interfering friends have decided to get involved and suddenly Steve finds himself in a club meeting a gorgeous young male Omega closer to his daughter's age than Steve's own and sparks fly.

However, when it becomes clear that neither Steve nor Bucky - the Omega in question - are the type for a one-night romance, everyone has an opinion on the matter and their entire relationship becomes a family affair.

The House on Winter Lane by @duchessonfireao3 featuring art by @clandestinemira

Bucky is 24, adrift, his life as an MIT student derailed after losing his parents and his arm in a car accident five years ago. During the day, he works for Hawkeye Construction & Renovation Company; at night, he burns through one-night stands and no-strings-attached relationships.

And thus, the last of our fantastic Silver Fox Steve works have arrived. Thank you to everyone who participated. This has been so much fun and we can't wait to do it again.

Check out all the works celebrating Silver Fox Steve in our AO3 Collection! Be sure to kudo and leave lots of love on these amazing works.

Swimming in Desire by @sebbys-mama featuring art by @elkleggs

When Bucky decides to learn how to swim, Sam hooks him up with retired Navy SEAL, Steve Rogers. Little did Bucky know, that Steve was the Silver Fox of his dreams.

Lies and Evasions by @buckybarnesdeservestobehappy featuring art by britbrit99

He’s the fist of Hydra, and his current mission is to acquire specific pieces of art that, when sold on the black market, fund the activities of the nefarious organization. Although his handlers give him a specific list of works to steal, one statue catches his attention, and he snatches it in the raid. It’s old—ancient, possibly—and he’s obsessed. As time passes, the statue becomes his closest friend and so much more.

Golden by @christywantspizza featuring art by Emmatheslayer

Looking in the mirror, Steve touched the lace fabric hugging his hips, smiling at how soft it looked on his large body. Yes, he'd made the right choice, softness was exactly what his Bucky deserved that night. Now, at fifty years old, Steve was confident not only in his image, but in himself as well, in his value, his worth and how he was deserving of happiness. But it hadn’t always been this way.

i could have chained your heart to a star by @stuckyflangst featuring art by @koipondering

Steve Rogers came out of the ice in 1965. Almost thirty years later he discovered Bucky Barnes had survived, and it seemed like a chance for a new beginning. But when Bucky say that he doesn't want Steve in his life anymore, Steve has to forge a life without Bucky. Now, in 2025, two aging supersoldiers find themselves back in Brooklyn, reconnecting.

A Leap Begins by @dontcallmebree featuring art by Espressosaur

In the summer of ’03, Maria’s kid comes home with a friend. James Barnes is a junior, charming and polite and smiling a grin of perfect teeth. Steve spends the entire drive to Tony’s welcome home dinner listening to Maria not-so-carefully tiptoe around Steve’s extended stay and the unpleasant news of his divorce. Instead of placating Tony with assurances that he’s still more than welcome to spend time with his soon-to-be ex-wife, however, Steve is much too busy trying not to let his eyes linger on their—second—houseguest. It’s been a while since Steve’s let himself look, and Bucky almost seems like a cruel twist of fate. Steve finds himself on the rough side of a midlife crisis when Bucky Barnes waltzes into his life.

Just Call Me Up (You Know I'll Always Be There) by @wolfnprey featuring art by @thedamageofherdays

Steve's met outside of the apartment building by a sleek town car. It's not always the case; he rarely gives out his real address and depending on the client, he could meet them by subway or taxi or whatever they want that caters to the fantasy they're paying for. Steve doesn't judge any of his clients regardless. Everyone is missing something in their lives and he's simply giving them time to finally have it. Companionship isn't always easy to come by. He never lets them feel ashamed about that.

Be sure to check out @thedamageofherdays artwork for the fic HERE!

Kiss me like you mean it by @allegedlyann featuring art by @burnin-brighter

Bucky’s plan for the summer was to travel across Italy while working remotely as a computer scientist for Stark Industries. But somehow he finds himself on a yacht pretending to be the sweetheart of the ‘allegedly’ retired Steve Rogers. Between the silver hair, flirtatious banter, and the stupid speedos the man liked to wear, Bucky was trying not to let the thirst and feelings drown him in the Mediterranean sea. Meanwhile, Zemo just wanted to relax after a job well done. Honest!

Older, Not Wiser by @late-to-the-party-81 featuring art by @koipondering

Having finally accepted promotion to a desk job, Commander Rogers of SHIELD, formally Captain America, is actually looking forward to semi-retirement now he’s in his 40’s. What he doesn’t anticipate is a whole SHIELD team being massacred on return from a covert mission, and him being asked to look after the only surviving witness, attractive barista Bucky Barnes. He hasn’t felt attraction this strong since his previous relationship ended tragically. Bucky was already trying to get over a personal trauma, when his life is turned upside down again, and he ends up the sole survivor of a mass shooting. He’s put into witness protection, and completely unprepared to come face to face with his childhood crush, and cause of his gay awakening, Steve Rogers. Now he’s under the personal protection of this absolute silver fox, and his head is spinning. When circumstances force the pair to go off-grid and hide from those who wish to silence Bucky, the tension between them ramps up. Can these two broken men find a way to heal with each other?

Welcome to the Silver Screen by @bonusholegent featuring art by VeroCaroline

Steve Rogers has spent years away from the film industry. Now, his most famous movie series is being remade, and he's returning to what he loves.

Tell Me All Of Your Secrets by @becassine featuring art by @buckymilf

When Commander Rogers gets an unexpected call from the Smithsonian, he’s not sure what he’s expecting. It isn’t that his WWII belongings are being stolen from his exhibit by an art thief attractive enough to make him want to take personal ownership of the case.

A trap is set, house arrest looms, tension simmers—but can the Commander ever convince a bratty Bucky to tell the truth without taking him over his knee?

Before I Learned Civility by @thedamageofherdays featuring art by @mxaether

When James’s coworker Natasha invites him to an art show she introduces him to her brother Steve. Though they are completele opposites James and Steve feel an immediate connection and are quick to start dating. But maybe their connection goes back to years before Natasha ever introduced them, maybe they knew each other before.

As Cold As Ice by @kalee60 featuring art by @xpi-x-elx

When Bucky Barnes signed up for an anonymous hookup weekend away via a new App, he was more than a little excited at the prospect of meeting his sexual equal. The anticipation of all of his desires being met by someone with similar tastes was a unique prospect. No more trawling bars for uninspiring and unremarkable one night stands, this App was the future.

Except when Bucky arrives at the secluded cabin in the midst of a blizzard, two things become abundantly clear. He was snowed in for the weekend with no escape, and the App was completely, and utterly wrong. It had paired him with none other than Steve Rogers, the bane of his work life, the older and self-imposed ‘superior’ co-worker who he hated with a passion.

But then Steve makes Bucky an offer too enticing to refuse…And so begins a weekend of snarky quips, bad decisions, and the beginning of the end to the world's most antagonising work rivalry. Because, it's just sex… Right?

It was Always You by @darter-blue featuring art by britbrit99

Captain Steven G Rogers returns from the war - a Naval Captain, decorated sailor, successful, respected, and in possession of a small fortune.

He agrees to move temporarily into the residence of his younger married sister, Natasha, and her wife Wanda, only to find that she is letting her house from the family of the young man who broke his heart not eight years previously. James B Barnes.

A retelling of Jane Austen’s Persuasion - from The Captain’s perspective

Oh Baby Be Mine by mishka_osito featuring art by @cornflower-cowboy

Recently retired alpha Steve Rogers finds adjusting to his new, quiet life…pretty boring. There's books to read, movies to watch, and paintings to paint - sure. But he finds everything is dull after committing to being a slowly-aging superhero for the last 70 years. His best friend says he should settle down and finally start a family, his therapist has started to agree (the bastard), but Steve's not so sure.

He finds a sudden change of heart as NICU nurse omega Bucky moves into the apartment next door. Steve is instantly smitten when Bucky brings over some baked goods to share and realizes he’s gone when he catches Bucky breaking down after a long shift. Cue a romance that ends in snuggling (healing) babies, the courtship of the century, and a mountain of stress-baked cookies (and the absolute bleeding heart that is Steve Rogers).

All We Have Is Now by @hanitrash featuring art by Emmatheslayer

When Bucky comes out of cryo in Wakanda, he's met with a startling sight: Steve with a head of silver hair, not blond. As he navigates the early stages of his recovery, he must also navigate the resurgence of his feelings for Steve, and how much he longs to shove his tongue down the man's throat, among other things.

Chardonnays by the Sea by @metalbvcky featuring art by @thedamageofherdays

Steve, founder of Grant & Co, is invited to a wedding. He tears the letter open while nursing a glass of scotch, skimming through the details with a scowl. It would be a shame to show up without a pretty little thing, but despite being made of money, Steve's dating pool is virtually dead. He'll have to reject the invitation after he pours himself another drink.

Meanwhile, Bucky is living the life of luxury. Courtesy of his best friend's dating app, Bucky found success in pleasing rich, and much older, men. He missed focusing on his actual career but earning a fat tip was better than chasing after dead-end modeling gigs. He'll occasionally receive strange messages, however, tonight's stuck out from the rest.

The text is a little risque, and friendly, but neither of those things holds Bucky's attention for long. The profile had been created less than an hour ago, yet that doesn't deter Bucky from scouring through it like an encyclopedia. It had to be a catfish. Why else would a famous fashion designer sign up for a publicly accessible app? And why is Bucky's brain screaming at him to send a message back?

This may be the biggest mistake of Bucky's life, or possibly the best client he's ever had.

in this trouble town (troubles are found) by @burnin-brighter featuring art by @mxaether

Bucky wanted to be on the presidential security detail ever since he worked the inauguration four years prior. But, as it turns out, being in charge of the Vice President’s safety might be the best thing that’s happened to Bucky in a long time.

When some things start being weird around the White House, Vice President Steve struggles to find who he can trust with the information that he has. But when he does, he and Bucky uncover more and more things that point towards treason.

As they work together to bring the people involved down, they might find something else along the way.

Long Time Coming by @glim featuring art by LadyUkkey

Steve gets back from a mission hurt, sick, and more than a little lonely, and finds that even after all these years it's still just Bucky that he longs for. He's been in love with his best friend for this long, he can love him a little longer and not say anything about it.
