Saturday morning fic rec:
Captain America wakes up from the ice in 2013. The Winter Soldier wakes up in 2009, or rather defects from HYDRA, for a value of defect that’s closer to decimate. He ends up working for SHIELD. In April 2014, he’s assigned to Captain America’s mission as a sniper.
Steve’s just trying to get some kind of life together. Bucky is too, or at least he was until tall, blond and Captain shows up and starts just - being there, all the time. It’s terrible. It’s the worst. He has to do something about it.

This is very much a feelgood fic, because there’s more fluff than in eating three sticks of cotton candy on row. Also I at least can’t read this in public because of excessive cackling, it’s completely hilarious.
