“Traveling Light” (E, 56k) by wearing_tearing

When Steve wakes up, it is a surprise.

The last thing he remembers is the bottom of the lake, sharp teeth and yellow eyes, and the cold pressure of not being able to breathe. But he isn’t dead. He didn’t drown. He is not in the water anymore.

Instead, he is warm, very much alive, and wrapped in a cocoon of feathers.

He’s also naked. And with a man lying right next to him.

+ Fantasy AU. Steve gets wings, gets Bucky, gets a new purpose. (and gets to paint for the panthers)

“The First Thing About Birds” (T, 3k) by SleepsWithCoyotes

Bucky says it's a hazard of the job, but those hazards are different when you've got wings.

+ Pre-WW2. Bucky comes home after a long day at work. Domestic grooming loveliness

“the wind beneath” (T, 1k) by toli-a (togina)

Not everyone had wings - in fact, they were so rare that no one could decide if the winged were part bird, part angel, or merely some Darwinian fly in the ointment. Steve had grown up in the shadow of Bucky's wings, had always believed that having wings meant something. (Like Bucky, Steve's faith wouldn't survive the war.)

+ TFA. Steve goes from two wings to six. Ends at the Valkyrie, so prepare for emotional onslaught

“let’s go and see the stars” (T, 2k) by amosanguis

Steve’s wings have always been too big.

+ Pre-WW2 to Post WS. Established relationship and interesting world building. Range 3 wings and above can fly, and Steve is the only one with a range six.

“Chrysalid” (G, 2k) by IamShadow21

You're not ashamed of them, not really. You just wish that if the serum was going to give you super strength and health and ridiculous head wings, the government would have at least given you something less humiliating to do than parade around in fancy dress.

+ WW2 to Post WS. The wings on Cap’s helmet aren’t just symbolic

“Plunge” (T, 32k) by leveragehunters

Steve squawked as a hand wrapped loosely around his wrist. He braked, wings banking so hard he almost somersaulted over himself, and surged up and away from the ocean, spinning to find himself staring at—

A triton was laughing up at him, sharp teeth gleaming in the sunlight. Steve had seen tritons before. He knew what lurked under the water. The power and violence wrapped in muscle and skin.

The triton's grin turned knowing, like he could see what Steve was thinking. "Hey there, Feathers. You want to go for a swim?"

+ Fantasy AU. Reposted from the Writer Spotlight because I absolutely have to. Mer Bucky loves Steve’s wings

“Werewolf? There Wolf” (T, 65k) by leveragehunters

After the car accident that cost him his arm and the endless rehabilitation that got him his shiny metal Stark Industries replacement, Bucky's happy for a break from people. The house in the forest is peaceful, town's a fair distance away, and he's got no neighbours...except maybe a blue-eyed wolf and possibly a naked guy named Steve.

(PS: Steve is the wolf.)

+ Modern AU. A 5 part series of Steve and Bucky’s little pack of two. Fluff, crack, kidnappings, cryptozoologists, and whole lot of love.

“Health Code Violation” (T, 14k) by Kryptaria

It's opening day at Kafe Biblioteka and day one of the worst blizzard to hit D.C. in a century. But ten years in the army taught Bucky to deal with anything life threw at him, including zero customers.

Nope. Make that one customer.

+ Modern AU. Steve goes to Bucky for a safe place for himself and his armful of kittens. A bit of Coffeeshop, Only One Bed, Mutual Pining, and Snowed In goodness

“Safe Haven” (E, 12k) by DyslexicSquirrel and Kalika_999

It’s hard out there for a lone wolf.

Steve has been on his own for years, since being banished from his pack, constantly on the move. He was resigned to a life alone.

Until the unexpected swam into his life.

Steve never thought he would meet his mate. He definitely didn’t think his mate would be anything other than a wolf. One thing he’s always known, though, is that life is full of surprises.

+ Modern AU. Steve finds his mate, a pack, and a place where he belongs. Featuring Mer Bucky and his underwater blowjobs

-☆-

“Tales of a Teenage Werewolf” (T, 1k) by toli-a (togina)

Would it have been so difficult, Steve wondered, to send out a few pamphlets - "So You're a Werewolf!" or maybe, "Becoming a Slavering Beast for Dummies" - to help the unsuspecting human you'd bitten on the last full moon? At least then he might know why he kept ending up in the Barneses' yard.

+ Modern AU. Steve keeps showing up naked at Bucky’s house; it’s less of a big deal than expected

-☆-

“Oh CapWolf, What A Big...” (E, 5k) by Defiler_Wyrm and velvetjinx

Steve and Bucky have been together a few months now, but Steve keeps disappearing for three days out of the month. Bucky gets curious, and follows him. But what he finds is much, much more than he'd ever bargained for, and he discovers some things about himself that he never knew before.

+ Post WS. Full-shift sex? You got it!

“Wolfsbane” (E, 1k) by the_genderman

In a “monsters and cryptids are real and live among us” AU, Steve’s a werewolf, Bucky’s a dragon, and neither of them know this about the other. Some itchiness ensues.

+ Modern AU. Dinner and a hookup doesn’t go quite as planned when you have silver-threaded sheets and an extensive coin collection
