Lies and Evasions by @buckybarnesdeservestobehappy featuring art by britbrit99
He’s the fist of Hydra, and his current mission is to acquire specific pieces of art that, when sold on the black market, fund the activities of the nefarious organization. Although his handlers give him a specific list of works to steal, one statue catches his attention, and he snatches it in the raid. It’s old—ancient, possibly—and he’s obsessed. As time passes, the statue becomes his closest friend and so much more.

Golden by @christywantspizza featuring art by Emmatheslayer
Looking in the mirror, Steve touched the lace fabric hugging his hips, smiling at how soft it looked on his large body. Yes, he'd made the right choice, softness was exactly what his Bucky deserved that night. Now, at fifty years old, Steve was confident not only in his image, but in himself as well, in his value, his worth and how he was deserving of happiness. But it hadn’t always been this way.

i could have chained your heart to a star by @stuckyflangst featuring art by @koipondering
Steve Rogers came out of the ice in 1965. Almost thirty years later he discovered Bucky Barnes had survived, and it seemed like a chance for a new beginning. But when Bucky say that he doesn't want Steve in his life anymore, Steve has to forge a life without Bucky. Now, in 2025, two aging supersoldiers find themselves back in Brooklyn, reconnecting.

A Leap Begins by @dontcallmebree featuring art by Espressosaur
In the summer of ’03, Maria’s kid comes home with a friend. James Barnes is a junior, charming and polite and smiling a grin of perfect teeth. Steve spends the entire drive to Tony’s welcome home dinner listening to Maria not-so-carefully tiptoe around Steve’s extended stay and the unpleasant news of his divorce. Instead of placating Tony with assurances that he’s still more than welcome to spend time with his soon-to-be ex-wife, however, Steve is much too busy trying not to let his eyes linger on their—second—houseguest. It’s been a while since Steve’s let himself look, and Bucky almost seems like a cruel twist of fate. Steve finds himself on the rough side of a midlife crisis when Bucky Barnes waltzes into his life.

Just Call Me Up (You Know I'll Always Be There) by @wolfnprey featuring art by @thedamageofherdays
Steve's met outside of the apartment building by a sleek town car. It's not always the case; he rarely gives out his real address and depending on the client, he could meet them by subway or taxi or whatever they want that caters to the fantasy they're paying for. Steve doesn't judge any of his clients regardless. Everyone is missing something in their lives and he's simply giving them time to finally have it. Companionship isn't always easy to come by. He never lets them feel ashamed about that.
Be sure to check out @thedamageofherdays artwork for the fic HERE!

Kiss me like you mean it by @allegedlyann featuring art by @burnin-brighter
Bucky’s plan for the summer was to travel across Italy while working remotely as a computer scientist for Stark Industries. But somehow he finds himself on a yacht pretending to be the sweetheart of the ‘allegedly’ retired Steve Rogers. Between the silver hair, flirtatious banter, and the stupid speedos the man liked to wear, Bucky was trying not to let the thirst and feelings drown him in the Mediterranean sea.
Meanwhile, Zemo just wanted to relax after a job well done. Honest!

Older, Not Wiser by @late-to-the-party-81 featuring art by @koipondering
Having finally accepted promotion to a desk job, Commander Rogers of SHIELD, formally Captain America, is actually looking forward to semi-retirement now he’s in his 40’s. What he doesn’t anticipate is a whole SHIELD team being massacred on return from a covert mission, and him being asked to look after the only surviving witness, attractive barista Bucky Barnes. He hasn’t felt attraction this strong since his previous relationship ended tragically.
Bucky was already trying to get over a personal trauma, when his life is turned upside down again, and he ends up the sole survivor of a mass shooting. He’s put into witness protection, and completely unprepared to come face to face with his childhood crush, and cause of his gay awakening, Steve Rogers. Now he’s under the personal protection of this absolute silver fox, and his head is spinning.
When circumstances force the pair to go off-grid and hide from those who wish to silence Bucky, the tension between them ramps up. Can these two broken men find a way to heal with each other?
