    Summary

    Based on a TikTok by@emptyjunior
    Peter Parker erased himself from everyone’s memory… but apparently not from Bucky Barnes’ paranoia. When Bucky finds a small, fast, suspiciously sharp kid in Brooklyn, he’s convinced Hydra made another Winter Soldier—or maybe, somehow, this is his secret son. Peter doesn’t correct him. Not even once. What starts as a wild theory spirals into a fragile, chaotic sort of family, complete with impossible lies, and two grown men losing their minds over a kid who just wants to survive.

    Summary

    Bucky Barnes was a SHIELD agent who had to be put on leave after an unfortunate incident during a mission left him temporarily Gift-less.

    Steve Rogers was a cold, bitter man who had a history and a strong penchant for hating SHIELD agents.

    Both were just minding their own business when they suddenly bumped into each other on the street. Needless to say, things did not go well.

    (Also the meet-ugly AU with a sprinkle of magic and a whole bucket of angst)

    Summary

    Someone nice to go out with, that’s all Steve wants. Or at least, that’s what he thought he wanted. After dozens of failed dates he isn’t so sure anymore. Luckily, work provides the perfect distraction from Steve’s uninspiring love life. SHIELD and the SSR are joining forces in a historic union for the sole purpose of bringing Hydra down for good. Steve is paired with the SSR’s top agent, the Winter Soldier, to lead the charge and the last word he would ever use to describe his nameless, faceless partner is “nice.”

    Summary

    Despite the fact that Steve Rogers’ life hasn't always been a bed of roses, he’s fortunate enough to have a lot of good things to call his own. He has a loving mother, two wonderful kids, marvelous friends, and a beautiful house with a big, sprawling yard, to name but a few. One thing Steve does not have, however, is green fingers. One late spring morning, Steve decides to call in the help of a local gardening company to restore his yard to its former glory. When gorgeous gardener Bucky Barnes shows up on his doorstep the next day, he unwittingly upturns not only Steve’s yard, but his life, too. Over the course of the summer, it’s more than just the garden that begins to blossom.

    Summary

    Their rivalry begins like this: they’re teenagers, skating the same circuits, competing in the same competitions. What happens is that they compete against each other for the novice boy’s title in the North Atlantic Regional Figure Skating Competition and they both somehow tie for first place. There are no ties in competition, but their scores are identical across the board.

    Steve hates that Bucky took his win from him and Bucky hates that Steve thinks he won instead of tying, like the results said. The ensuing verbal scuffle had cemented what would come to be a slightly unhealthy long-term skating rivalry.

    The intervening years don't help.

    ***

    Perennial rivals since childhood, Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes face off against each other to achieve their Olympic figure skating dreams. But when bad luck and bad falls get in their way, Steve realizes there might only be one way to make it to Wakanda after all.

    It's reckless and it's definitely incredibly stupid, but to win Olympic gold, these two enemies will need to come together as a pair--on the ice and off.
