FRAGMENTS OF A LONELY TIDE [masterlist] dockworker!bucky barnes x mermaid!reader

— ⟢ SUMMARY: a grumpy dockworker reluctantly rescues you—a stranded, wounded mermaid—with every intention of sending you back to the sea once you’ve healed. until the idea of losing you becomes something he can no longer bear. — ⟢ GENERAL WARNINGS: 18+ MDNI; bucky’s in his 40s; grumpy!bucky (starts off rude and cold); protective!bucky; sunshine!reader; injuries & blood; angst; loneliness; temporary feelings denial; mutual pining; heavy yearning; domestic fluff; smut. each part has its own specific warnings.

A/N: this was originally supposed to be a one-shot part of a collection inspired by that picture of seb up there, but the plot got a little out of hand. and honestly? I don’t feel like cutting scenes just to fit tumblr’s ridiculous 1000-block limit. so here we are! hope you’ll enjoy 🌊 the art of devotion masterlist

⤷ PARTS ༄.° PART 1 — mid-june ༄.° PART 2 ༄.° PART 3

important notes: this series will have its own dedicated taglist! that being said, I’ll also be tagging my general bucky barnes taglist, so if you’d like to be notified about all of my bucky-related fics rather than just this series, that option is available too. if you are interested, please read this post here first!

my sexual fantasy? being loved and held

[station18908]

The small voice in your head that says: "I don't need to write down every small detail of this plot idea, I love it so much, I'll remember this."

That's the devil speaking.

“what are you doing this weekend” i am going to fantasy land. i am hiding under the covers in bed. i am making things up. i am contemplating events that didnt happen. i am talking to fake people. i am listening to my tunes. i am envisioning scenarios

you should get a second evening for reading fan fiction. And you should get an extra day in the week to do arts and crafts.

𓂃 𓈒𓏸 it's always the same dream.

when he dreams — it's always the same.

the sea has pulled him under. thick foam occupies his lungs and the cold bites at his skin. kelp tickles him right before he thinks this is it, this is the time. but when his vision starts to blur at the corners, and the darkness whisper to call him, he hears a voice:

"not yet."

and no matter how many times he has this exact dream, he always wakes with a startle. gulps down air as if he had actually been in the water, like he's trying to take back the breath that had been stolen from him.

he's restless after that. rises out of his bed as if he has a mission. he roams through the home, fingers trailing across the door jambs as if to ward away whatever's haunting him. he watches through the window like he hasn't already memorized the land around him—maybe he's missed something. maybe that's what bothers him.

but that's not it.

there's no answers, no matter where he looks.

it's still just him. still just the lighthouse. still just the sea, and the dream that inhabits his mind, still the soft tug that keeps him from fully submerging.

story concept for lighthouse keeper!loki/selkie!reader. writing/release tbd. #loki is haunted #reader does in fact want to pull him under #canon divergent certainly

[estrellacercadelvolcan]

That's so beautiful. Loki, the sea and selkie!reader 😍

“ His character in The Losers (Jake Jensen) is the most like Chris in real life.” - Lisa Evans

[dilucssv-deactivated20251203]

wearing a bra with a front clasp and your fave not realizing it…..laying on top of him during a slow and sensual makeout session and you feel his big hands gliding up your spine to fiddle with the bra to get it off of you - only for him to falter in confusion a bit when he only feels the smooth band across your back. Your little giggle, looking at him with a softly teasing smile when you sit up to reach for the pretty metallic clasp that sits between your breasts, his eyes are suddenly so sharp as they dart down to your cleavage as your fingers swiftly open the garment for his eager eyes to watch your tits pop out right then, the soft wobble of them and his mouth immediately latching on to your nipple while you gasp and giggle.

about 90% of fanfiction takes place in a utopia where men are thoughtful and unsure of their place in the world

@skulandcrossbones this might be the greatest tag on a reblog I’ve ever seen.

[seavannahs]

just thinking about men who lean their heads down to listen to what you have to say because of the height difference, humming along to your words, accidentally nosing against your cheek because he knows it flusters you before murmuring, "keep talking, sweet girl. i'm listening."
