post captain america: the winter soldier

• Hey Cinderella, You Dropped Your Shoe by dirtybinary [Due to the technological limitations of the '40s, Steve is Captain America by day and a scrawny little guy by night. His daily transformations are as painful as they were the first time, and he really shouldn't be going on night missions, but that doesn't stop him from trying to find Bucky after the helicarriers go down.]
• Soft Spot for the Hell Raisin’ Boy by ifeelbetter [The Winter Soldier takes an interest in Sam Wilson. Bucky Barnes wants to tell him how to be Steve Rogers’s best friend.]
• lonely houses off the road by Etharei [Barnes is now glaring at him for some reason. It’s somewhat terrifying but also, oddly, a little reassuring— because that’s emotion right there, which means there’s still somebody behind those eyes. Somebody who seems to think Sam is being a bit slow on the uptake. “Time parameters exceeded. Mission failed.” ”Wait.” Sam narrows his eyes. “Is this some kind of… report? Debriefing?” ”Mission report,” confirms Barnes, looking pleased. Well, looking slightly less murderous than before. In which various people deal with things they never signed up for, but at the end of the day no one’s particularly surprised.]
• Parachute by RemoCon [Sam would follow Steve anywhere. But he didn’t expect Barnes to follow him into Starbucks.]
• lethe by black_nata ["Do it," he goads. "Do it or come back home with me and let me help you. But you gotta do it now, Buck, because I can’t take another moment of this hell."]
• To make bright and clear your path by lanyon [He tries to find himself but everyone else is looking, too.]
• Mistake on the Part of Nature by idiopathicsmile [In which an American icon is mourned. But probably not the one you’re thinking of.]
• Our Final Score by dirtybinary [Steve and Bucky have never questioned the telepathic link they share. As far as they're concerned, it's probably just a natural side-effect of living out of each other's pockets for so long. But without it, Steve doesn't know if he could have saved Bucky—and much later on, the Winter Soldier—from HYDRA.]
