Ur ass sees "Crank" and just goes cuckoo fucking bananas huh (ily)

Crank blinks a few times, hoping his tired eyes are just playing tricks, but no. That's his own letter from months ago staring back at him, shaky blue ink stating "RETURN TO SENDER" scribbled across the top of the envelope. He flips it over, runs his thumb along the unopened flap, at a loss. It'd taken him far too long to remember to write to Murphy in the first place, to ask how he's doing. He'd gotten swept up in the frenzy of liberation and collection depots and reassignment, in the survival mindset of thinking only day by day, hour by hour, until he had woken up one day in late April and realized he'd failed to do his most important duty as a pilot: see to it that his crew returns home, safe. Crank sits down heavily, the old kitchen chair creaking in protest, and runs his hands down his face, thinking. It could be argued he failed in that duty a long time ago. In the skies over Münster, making that turn to the RP, maybe. But his real mistake was leaving him behind in the South Compound, right before Christmas, thinking it was all right. There'd be another chance for a swap, in a month or so, and they'd see each other then.

You know this wip is like 1.5 yrs old now 💀

The elation of the moment wears off, and suddenly Brady pins him with a look he hasn't been under the receiving end of in years. Neither has its effectiveness dulled in that time, as he finds himself squirming like a bug on a board. "What are you doing here, Croz?"

They say torturing Bucky is good for the soul yknow

They're looking at him, waiting to see what his response will be. Their faces swim in and out, twisting and morphing into those German civilians, mirrors of rage and indifference. He can't look at the man on the ground.

And your prize isssss crankbuckymurph!!

Crank shuffles through it, only half aware, his mind more concerned with what to do for dinner. Most of it's bills, a wedding invitation. He's already written it all off as something to deal with later, until the last piece in the stack stops him cold.

Black hole fantasy?

Behind this door is the crankbuckymurph unedited stream of thought bullet point fic!

• Crank fucks him. It's good for the night. It's awkward in the daylight. He still doesn't know what to say, how to act. He asks, even though it makes his stomach clench uneasily, if Bucky needs him to go with him. To Wisconsin. To the funeral. To get affairs in order. His presence is the only thing he can really offer; the thought of fumbling through evoking the proper emotions and sentiments, of watching the hole of Bucky's grief swallow him alive, enough to make him want to run. But the thought that Bucky might need him, might want him there anyway, is enough to make him ask. He'll do it.

Talbert's Letter to Dick the band of brothers Bible

[hellofanidea]

First line of a fic!

He wasn't sure what to do about the handcuffs.

'Get out of them' was the prevailing notion, but considering the way they had been looped through the radiator and left his hands at odd angles, Web didn't have too much hope in his usual lockpicking skills.

"Just sit tight," Lieb had said before he left, patting his cheek condescendingly. "I'll come getcha when it's done."

As if Web had ever been any good at just letting him waltz in and out of his life as he pleased, even when he claimed it was for his own good. He eyed the tracker on his ankle, and then the sturdy looking table leg next to it - a pissed off Speirs had to be a better option than waiting around for Joe to get himself killed.
