    Summary

    Once upon a time, the night watchmen would have given him sideways looks, a young man walking alone down 33rd street on the wrong side of midnight. These days they looked his uniform and nodded respectfully instead. Bucky hated it. He wished he could go back to the ragged boy he’d been, take Steve with him into the past and hide there together.

     

     

    Bucky coming home, the night before he ships out.

    Summary

    He stuck with the smiles and the upbeat messages, for the most part.

    People liked to hear about how much better the Super Soldier Serum had made his life, and he was happy enough to talk about it. There was so much bad news out there, people needed every win they could get. And his transformation had been a pretty dramatic win - for him, for science, for America.

    What was much more difficult to explain was just how confusing it all was. Just because a change is for the better doesn't mean it isn't hard.

    Summary

    This is the story of a detective, a doctor, two widows, two romances, and six guns.

    Written for Nefrya on the Johnlock gift exchange. The prompt was as follows: "I would like to read case fic, which is set in 30-40s. When mafia ruled, people wore hats and suits. It also would be nice to see some hurt-comfort between John and Sherlock, and neck kissing. I hope it’s not too much ;) Any rating."

    Summary

    Everybody--including Steve himself--had been surprised when he'd turned out to be an alpha. The other boys had pegged him for an omega, and a bad one at that; one of the many jokes at his expense was that Barnes only liked him because Steve was even lower on the food chain than an omega with delusions of beta-status. Steve can still remember the feral grin Bucky’d given him after they’d heard that one for the first time, blood on his teeth from his split lip, and the way his voice had cracked when he’d said “I like you for a lot more’n that, Rogers.”

    Summary

    Bucky leaves sometime around sunrise. Stephanie isn't sure of the time, only that it's too early and her last touch is no more than a brushing of fingers over her bare hip as Bucky slips out of bed. She gets her uniform on and crouches back by the edge, touching Stephanie's cheek. “My best girl,” she whispers.

    “Come home.”

    “Don't worry, they promised me a few days of leave now and then. You'll barely have time to realize I was gone by the time I’ve earned them.”
     
    “I already miss you.”

    Bucky smiles, and Stephanie can see the pain in her eyes. There's one last kiss and Stephanie hopes her lips stay stained with Bucky's lipstick forever.
