“I’m no hero.”
@shieldedsouls
They sit close together, blue raspberry icees and a bag of greasy fries propped in their laps, hip pressed against hip. There’s a line that isn’t mean to be crossed between them, not even there on the balcony, their feet dangling above a city aglow with the gloaming, and Darcy has to suck a breath between her blue-stained teeth when he confesses.
Darcy wants to say so what? who cares? Heroes aren’t all great anyways but she is still shy with Bucky when there’s not a screen between them. Her boldness melts away, face to face, when she realizes his hair has grown longer and the shape of his face is softer than the last time she’d seen him, how strangely desperate she is for him to like her.
“Well, I still dig you.”

When Steve woke, the white around him nearly blinded him. Next came the smell, starchy and antiseptic like a hospital. Thin, scratchy sheets laid over his body, confirming that he was in some sort of hospital or ward. The sound, however, didn’t quite match up with what else was around him. Neither did the woman, clothes and hair all wrong, acting suspiciously. Everything felt slightly off, like a puzzle piece that wasn’t straight on one side, making the whole puzzle have gaps and bumps. He didn’t wait to see the whole picture- likely it would add up to nothing good.
Pushing past the “nurse” on clumsy legs, Steve hurried out of the room, and was faced with more white walls. He took a turn at random, adrenaline waking up his body better than any medicine could. The last thing he remembered was the brute force of the crash, icy cold water stealing his breath and cutting through his skin, Bucky cradled as best he could in his arms... Christ, where was Bucky? If... if he was alive (oh god, please, please be alive) then Steve wouldn’t leave here without him. He’d fight every person in this building if he had to.
Skidding around a corner, Steve stumbled to a halt as he saw armed agents dressed in black at the end of the corridor. It sent his heart racing- had HYDRA found them? He’d sworn never to let Bucky fall into their hands again. He backpedaled furiously, new rage pounding through him. First, save Bucky. Then, burn this building to the ground. Every hallway looked the same and Steve cursed, rebounding off the walls and finding locked door after locked door. An alarm rang somewhere in the distance.
“BUCKY! Bucky, where are you?” he shouted as he ran.

recollection
[ PLOTTED STARTER FOR @primankapustoty ]
It turned out that the Soldier was a more complicated man than she’d originally thought – and he’d been complicated enough. Natasha remembered his skill as he’d helped her train, but she also remembered his kindness… a rare luxury in that place of nightmares. She could not deny that she’d come to care for him, that when he’d shot her it had hurt in more ways than one.
And then, she found out he was Steve Rogers’ long-lost best friend; or rather, occupied the same body.
The knowledge that there had been an entire human being stuffed inside the Soldier sickened her. The problem wasn’t the DID, of course, but the fact that there was yet another victim of Hydra’s cruelty, that his experiences had been horrific enough to cause a schism in his consciousness.
Throughout the trial, Natasha had kept her mouth shut. No one but Clint knew of her real history with the man who was now known as James, and burdening Bucky with it during a turbulent period of his life was cruel, particularly as it could have been used against him on the stand. (How, she wasn’t exactly sure, but never doubt the justice system’s capacity of twisting anything it can to harm the innocent.)
Now that things had mostly settled, Natasha was sitting cross-legged on the kitchen counter at the Tower, watching Bucky over the rim of her mug. As she weighed how to approach this, she opted for the bluntest path of all:
“Do you know who I am?”

secret relationship | { Accepting! }
“…I didn’t realize that you would be particularly bothered by this.”
Bucky was typically so… mellow. At least in Vision’s experience. He’d only mentioned the texts he’d received as a passing attempt at conversation. But the other man’s sudden shift in attitude had him wondering just what it was that seemed to be… threatening.
“Is there something… I should know?”

@primankapustoty said --- 💖/handholding and the thumb rub thing tho !!!!
a day out is what they need. no school, no studying, no stupid tests...just a day out with his boyfriend. and that’s what dom prepares. a meal in the park. cliche, he’s aware but fresh air will clear bucky’s mind and even dom is getting cooped up in the apartment. holding the basket of food closer he tugs bucky toward an empty area in the grass before tossing the blanket on the ground. he’d made sure to make enough food for them to pig out on and some desserts for good measure.
dividing up the food he hands bucky a plate, grinning before grabbing his own. but bucky stops him, taking his hand gently as his thumb runs over the top of his hand. dom is sure his heart almost stops as he stares back at him, melting at the small ‘thank you’ bucky gives before digging into his food. it’s insane how much bucky makes him feel like he’s right back in high school again.
“ of course babe...i think we both deserve it. ”

headcanon call / @primankapustoty / accepting
Though Barney has never been in the habit of ‘checking in’ during dangerous or long term assignments, after a few close calls upset Bucky he promised to start trying to get into the habit. And so far he’s kept his promise. Even though it means going through more burner phones, the cost is worth sparing Bucky worry.
There has been exactly one time where Bucky’s arm hurt Barney. Ironically, it was when it wasn’t even attached to him. The arm rolled off the bed when Barney was attempting to changed sheets and landed on his foot. By some miracle, he ended up with a sprain rather than a broken ankle.
Despite never having formally met, Barney still tries to bring home two treats: one for Bucky and one for James.

but what does liberal mean for MEEE? // accepting !! @primankapustoty ❛ i just bought a 40 pound Toblerone for no reason. ❜
There’s resignation on his face. Exhaustion, perhaps. Toblerone. Why did it have to be Toblerone. Couldn’t it have been a bag of hard candy? Or licorice whips? Hell, he’d take gummie bears over Toblerone.
