the half-year in fic
Or, holy carp (and other religious fish), I wrote a lot. All links go to AO3 for ease/LJ posting limits reasons.
Coda: Bucky, Steve, road trip.
Artefactual: Steve was more than happy to look through the notebooks with him because if Bucky was going to trust Steve's narrative of his history over his own, well, Steve had always thought the world of James Buchanan Barnes and it was going to show.
Still Life: Steve Rogers and a very modern form of art therapy. (The one where Steve draws himself out of despair and into some notoriety when his cartoons hit the internet, but he's still not allowed to look at Tumblr without an okay from Pepper.)
Qeryana: Thor and his efforts to live on Midgard, as opposed to just defending it.
The Semiotics of Comestibles (aka the Roast Chicken Caper): In which there are jello molds and a dick joke (they’re related) and visits to politically relevant locations, Steve is a bit of a yenta, Bucky is metaphorically chased by a frozen chicken, Natasha goes to extreme measures to apologize, and everyone’s okay in the end.
Practicum: The Winter Soldier watches the youngest Black Widow the Red Room has ever produced prove her worth.
The Man IN Time: What was supposed to be a quick sketch to bring Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes into the modern era turned into a 2000 word bullet-pointed opus.
Present Participle: Tony has a proposition for Steve post-CA:TWS, although 'proposition' implies that Steve thinks he can say 'no.'
Fermata: Natasha Romanova and Nick Fury: two wounded warriors and their wars, past and present.
No Angel: The flightpath of Sam Wilson from Afghanistan to DC.
Hard Landing: He starts walking away, unsure if he is supposed to make sure that Steve is still breathing or that Captain America is not.
Leviticus 25: "You want to save Bucky Barnes? You are going to have to put your own house in order first because he is going to need a rock to cling to. You are not ready to be that rock for him. You owe it to him -- and more importantly, you owe it to yourself -- to figure things out, figure out how you can be happy in this time and place, whether or not Barnes is with you."
Recursive: In the wake of the HYDRA revelations, Steve Rogers finds himself both a pawn of the rebuilding SHIELD hierarchy and the leader of a newly-independent Avengers. He’s got masters he can’t run from, teammates he can’t let down, and a best friend who is turning his newly remembered past to ashes. But when a blast from a mysterious device seemingly sends him back to 1944, Steve has to decide if he should he change his past and risk ruining his future by fixing his greatest mistake.
Excerpts from Interview #2 with SHIELD prisoner #2935734H: The prisoner has revealed that he was part of the 'asset management team' controlling the HYDRA operator known as the Winter Soldier [possibly SGT J. B. Barnes, US Army, MIA 5 September 1944, declared KIA 12 December 1944]. Further questioning suggested after follow-ups on provided information complete.
That Others May Live: Sam was prepared to help Steve bring Bucky Barnes in from the cold, but this is not exactly how he'd figured on it going down.
