GLOSSSSSS!!!

You know how much I *love* this, right? It is my new FAVORITE thing.

Bucky thought of the tracer he'd found on his belt buckle, just an hour after he'd last left Fury. Thought, too, of the shield on his arm, Steve's shield. Totems and fetishes that made their own magic: You belong to me.
I can't even say anything about this line, I am so in love with it.

He rested the blade perpendicular to Fury's throat. A little more pressure, and the skin would part softer than fruit. Blood could run, welling before it arced.

The star on his arm was insurance against that instinct.
The almost soft description of something terrible, and then a staccato sentence putting it in its place-- gorgeous.

His thumb curved into the white hair on Nick's temple, his fingers clutching at the darker hairs further back. At night, blood on snow looks just like this, glitters of darkness, stars in absence.
OH, GAH.

And Nick drinking highballs!

I like icon twinnage! 'tis *fun*

I am SO HAPPY you enjoyed. I just -- it flowed pretty well, then I slept on it, and all of a sudden there was *more* that brought it together just as I'd hoped. <3333

I'm especially glad the totems/fetishes wasn't too alien to the rest, because I couldn't cut it. I tried! And I failed.

Nick HAD to drink highballs. It was a moral imperative, much like Buck's new armshield, really.

you don't mind if I keep it?

I think Bucky might believe in, or at least pay some kind of respect to, fetishes. He strikes me as the sort of boy who might have had a lucky rabbit foot, and anyway I think the arm-shield is proof enough that he puts stock in tokens.

Fury : Bucky :: Jameson : Ginger Ale.

Please do keep it. *g*

Bucky might believe in, or at least pay some kind of respect to, fetishes.
Honestly, it was the moment in "Gunsels" when he squirrels away a lock of Jason's hair that got me thinking around this.

Fury : Bucky :: Jameson : Ginger Ale.
They taste best together, yes. (And Bucky : Cap :: Ginger Ale : Scoop of double-churned vanilla?)

Look at what you did! You made me read this. You made me enjoy it, dammit.

Seriously, though, even though I am not ole Fury's biggest fan, you had me from hello, even through the sex. Every sentence is shivery-good, and your Fury is in all his gruff, outrageous glory without being OTT. I adore all these echoes of your other Marvel stories, or at least echoes of "One Pale Season", which I recently reread. This Bucky is a little older, much sadder, but still recognizable. Oh so good. ♥

Look at what you did! You made me read this.
Lay the blame *square* on your missus, please. How the HELL did these two start making sense to me?

And thank you *so much*. Bucky does remain pretty Buck-ish in my mind, story to story; I hadn't realized how much.

[caiusmajor]

Oh man. That's vast amounts of awesome. So very NICK FURY.

(And I'm totally digging the haircut/shaving thread going on here and in the other one.)

[glossing]

So very NICK FURY.
HE ROCKS MY WORLD DESPITE MY BEST INTENTIONS.

(This whole grooming-tip going on? I love it, too. *g*)

Thank you!

[unholyglee]

O.O

*grin*

[thete1]

skldjklsjd Oh, Jesus. I... this feels incredibly *necessary*, somehow, even as it pinpoints all the different varieties of not-right/not-whole/not-enough. Stars in absence, indeed, and... also...

Possibly too deep to be hot? Too hot to be as deep as it is?

*flaps at you*

[glossing]

Mmm, necessity is, if I have any, one of my biggest kinks. Making do and taking care of what little you've got left? Yes, please. These two haven't got much - other than warrants for their arrest - and this pleases me in a highly sadistic way. *g*

Possibly too deep to be hot? Too hot to be as deep as it is?
*loves on you* THAT KEEPS HAPPENING TO MY STORIES.

Thank you x a million. <333
