Summary
A Narrative of Certain Events following the Ending of the World (Except Not Quite), as vaguely hinted at in The Slapdash and Not Very Helpful Prophetic Tidbit of Agnes Nutter, Witch (And Matchmaker.)
"Their lives are in horrible, terrible danger that only we can save them from!" Anathema held up the Prophetic Tidbit. "It says so. Right here."
Madame Tracy peered at the page.
Raised a meaningful eyebrow.
"Dearie, as a woman of, well, considerable experience, I really don't think that's what 'the lyttle Deathe' means in this context...""Huh." Anathema squinted. Flipped the page. Read another bit. "....huh."
(Or, alternatively: Eight - give or take - matchmakers trying really, really hard, honest; two clueless ethereal/occult beings mutually pining their endless days away; and one witch, who can't leave well enough alone when it comes to matters of the heart, no matter how many centuries ago she died.)

Nobody tells Steve it's okay to cry.
Nobody touches him.
Nobody remembers Steve Rogers is a person under the mantle. It's okay. He hasn't felt like a person since he watched Bucky fall.

Summary
Clint's just being a good landlord, repairing some completely accidental, not even his fault a little bit, he didn't TELL those robots to... Uh. Repairing some damage to Aimee's apartment, when he's banned from IKEA. Look, it could happen to anyone!
Lots of things happen to Clint that could happen to anyone. They just... don't.
So he does what anyone would do, if they were an elite secret agent in desperate need of stylish yet inexpensive furnishings: he breaks in to IKEA. He finds the shelving he needs. He also finds the Winter Soldier.
Record scratch whaaaaaat
Things... escalate quickly.
Clint can deal with danger. He can survive the gravad lax. He can escape the ball pit. He can dodge Natasha's disturbing Russian metaphors. But falling for the Winter Soldier?
Yeahhhh Clint's in over his head.
TL;DR: Clint finds Bucky living in an IKEA. For reasons. Idiots-to-lovers hijinks ensue.
Alternately: Clint came here to kick ass and assemble IKEA furniture, and he's allll out of Allen wrenches. Seriously, could someone assemble this furniture for him? Will pay in blow-jobs. Assassin experience an asset. Heh, asset. What, too soon?

Summary
The Winter Soldier knows that sometimes, in order to make the kill, you must destroy what the Target lives for.
Steve Rogers knows that he can't fight his captors. If he fights, they'll kill Bucky. But the price of his life is steep.
Natasha Romanov would rather die than watch the Soldier struggle. It reminds her too much of herself.
Tony Stark has nothing left to live for, but he's needed. So all these miserable motherfuckers better stay alive, too.
Bruce Banner just wants to not be needed. And maybe he isn't - not for the Other Guy, not this time.
Thor knows not what curse lies over Midgard, but it has taken his heart, and he will have vengeance.
Sam Wilson is sick and tired of his friends getting hurt. What good is flying if you can't stop people from hitting the ground?
Clint Barton never expected to be a leader. But a leader he is, and no one else is going to die on his watch.
---
A story in which the first wave of Project Insight succeeds, and the Avengers must pick up the pieces and find a way to stop Hydra from completing its work with Zola's algorithm.

Summary
For Steve, getting through each day is a process – one he’s currently failing at spectacularly. Feeling out of place in this brave new world, he hopes to find a home in Bucky, and looks for him with everything he’s got. But Bucky doesn’t want to be found, and when he does touch base with Steve, he never sticks around for long. Bucky has embraced the modern age, leaving Steve lagging behind – or so Steve believes, until Bucky shows him otherwise.
A story in five parts, featuring Hydra goons and post-Ultron Sokovia, a celebration in memory of Jim Morita’s birthday, the isolated country of Latveria, and Dr. Doom’s humanoid robots attempting to take over New York.

The Grand Plan by velleities

Summary
The Soldier doesn’t mean to be menacing, even if it's become the impression he naturally gives off. He wants to be a person, first and foremost, but he wants to be the right kind of person too, and that leads him to one irrefutable conclusion: he owes an apology to Captain America– an apology that he has to deliver, if the Soldier wants to be who he aspires. It’s just proving out to be a little harder than he thought...

Summary
“I watched a documentary on the bombs dropped on Nagasaki and Hiroshima a while ago. In the blast radius, sometimes a… a person blocked the bleaching effect of the radiation. So the person was vaporized, but a shadow was left behind, on a bridge or a wall – their shape, their outline, when they were completely gone," Steve said. "It’s called a nuclear shadow.”
“If you’re implying the Soldier is like a nuclear shadow, then that is seriously fucking dark, man,” Sam said dryly.
OR
Before the fall of the Soviet Union, the Winter Soldier was sent to the American arm of Hydra - only there was a malfunction in the cryo-unit that meant it couldn't be opened, and it was left, powered but abandoned, in an underground base.
25 years later, the Avengers find it.

Summary
Steve gets out of the hospital in two days, but just barely. “I’m fine,” he tells Sam, Nurse Eunjung and the phalanx of doctors assigned to make sure Captain America didn’t bleed out and die and get bad PR all over their nice clean hospital. “I have an advanced healing factor. It’s fine. See? I’m standing.”
“That is not standing,” Sam tells him.
“You’re bending the IV stand,” Nurse Eunjung adds pointedly. “Let go and sit down, they don’t grow on trees.”

Summary
Steve looks for Bucky for a long time.
But the thing is that Bucky doesn't get found, Bucky finds. Bucky always finds Steve.
This takes a hard left after the Potomac and stumbles through the dark a lot after. Take a bit of running, the occasional synaptic misfire, the resurfacing of old memories, a dash or two of PTSD, and (eventually) a nice dose of action, stir, and serve over some unresolved issues.Bookmarked by tired_andc_onfused

Summary
“…there is nothing intelligent to say about a massacre. Everybody is supposed to be dead, to never say anything or want anything ever again. Everything is supposed to be very quiet after a massacre, and it always is, except for the birds.”
In 1944, Bucky Barnes falls off a train into the Alps, missing and presumed dead. Months later, Steve Rogers nosedives a plane into the arctic.
In 2010, the Winter Soldier project is uncovered by S.H.E.I.L.D., and Bucky Barnes is found alive. Three years later, Steve Rogers’ frozen body is found in the ocean.

Summary
"Agent Rogers. We have to stop meeting like this." The Winter Soldier crouched in front of where Steve was slumped against the wall, hands and forearms glued to the stone behind him by some kind of sticky polymer. "Comfortable?"
"No," Steve lied. "My blood circulation has been cut off. I've lost all feeling in my hands."
"Oh, so I should probably cut you loose," the Soldier deadpanned.
"It's a medical emergency. You don't want to be responsible for me losing limbs, do you?"
"Tell you what, if you lose your hands, I'll make you some new ones." He held up his metal hand, smallest finger crooked. “Pinkie promise.”
Secret Agent adversaries-to-lovers AU where the Winter Soldier keeps tying Captain America to walls and sticking around to chat. Shut up, Natasha, it’s not flirting, okay? (It’s definitely flirting.)

Summary
“You ever wonder how I got over my Selective Mutism?” Steve asked. “Spite.”
“Not that I don’t wholeheartedly believe that, but what does James or Bucky or whatever the hell his name is have to do with that?”
“I did it to spite him,” Steve clarified.
Sam put his head in his hands. “Okay, yeah, that checks out. Fuck.”
“So you agree he can’t stay here.”
Sam stood up and clapped Steve on the shoulder. “Oh no, he’s staying here. Like I said he signed the lease.”-
Steve and Bucky were best friends until middle school when Steve overheard Bucky saying it was weird he didn’t talk. Soon after, Bucky moved away and they never spoke again. Almost fifteen years later, they've somehow managed to become roommates.
