Okay. Iām Canadian so I know a shit ton about staying warm if youāre new to the cold there here are some tips!(add more if you know more!)
1. Wear grippy shoes, nothing is worse than snowmelt freezing on your skin.
2.Do not wear jeans as your outter layer. wet denim is the most body heat siphoning mother fucker known to man or god
3. Have a warm drink with you. It will help. Even just some hot soup broth or boiled water will help keep you warm.
4. Wear a moisture wicking layer close to your skin so you donāt get cold from your own sweat. You will sweat. That is fine and expected.
5. If you start feeling too warm even though you were cold and like you have to take your clothes of DO NOT. Call 911. You are suffering from hypothermia.
6. Bring a blanket and a heat source that needs no electricity with you in your vehicle. You do not want to be stranded with no heat in the case that something happens.
7. If you are struggling on ice as youāre walking, stop. Get your balance and penguin shuffle to a less slippery patch of ground. Thereās usually less ice on one side of the walk and itās better to walk in the snow next to the sidewalk than it is to eat dirt when ya slip
8. STAY THE ABSOLUTE FUCK AWAY FROM FROZEN BODIES OF WATER. Ponds are deceptive as shit even with the āsolid blue tried and trueā thing. Go around.
9. Keep kids warm. They run at a higher body temperature and will feel the effects of the cold worse than you.
10. Huddling is your best friend. Even if you donāt know the person, remember youāre both cold, especially if they donāt have the right clothing for the weather.
11. Pay attention to windchill. That is how cold it feels. Dress appropriately please. I know itās tempting to dress for style, but thereās nothing stylish about losing your toes to frostbite
12. Donāt touch metal if you can avoid it. It will sap your heat and likely freeze to anything wet. Like tongues. Donāt fucking lick a pole.
13. If someone licks something metal, pour warm water over their tongue to get them free. If they yank, they will bleed. A lot.
14. Keep your ears, noes, fingers, and toes warm. Youāre extremities will get cold first and are the most likely parts of your body to get frostbite.
15. If you see someone who may not have a place to be in the cold, offer to help them find a local shelter or library. The elements, especially the cold, are some of the largest threats to those who cannot avoid them.
16. If you find yourself stuck outside for a long time, sleep during the day when it is warmest, and avoid sleeping on the ground. Stay awake as much as you can at night so you have a better chance of staying warm.

A/N: Okay so I know itās been forever since I posted part 1 but I wanted this to be perfect! So Iām sorry about the ridiculous amount of angst here (I mean, I made @sgtjbuccky cry just by telling her the plot, GOALS AF!)

It had been over a month since you had seen Bucky. Over a month since you had thrown away all the effort it had taken you to get over your breakup by telling him you still loved him. It had been over a month since you had ridiculed yourself by telling your ex boyfriend you still loved him without knowing he was dating his own ex again. And despite how hard you had tried, you still couldnāt shake off your head his confused face when you blurted out āI miss youā.
Staring at your ceiling, your watched the shadows dancing on the white paint every time a car drove by. You let out a heavy sigh. Tonight was one of those nights. One of those many sleepless nights when everything was replaying in your head so loud it was almost deafening. You didnāt have to look at the clock to know it was too late, or rather too early in the morning.
Hey! I know I'm a new follower of you, but I was wondering if I could still send a request for the drabble challenge? If so, could you make a Bucky drabble based on the song: Burning House by Cam? I really love your blog and I also really love your fics š š hopefully you want to write the drabble š thank you in advance š¤ ā„

Warnings: ANGST, mention of alcohol, feels, bad breakup
A/N: Okay so clearly, I hate @blindspot-fanatic for making me do that because it gave me all the feels! Iām clearly not a pro at angst so I donāt know if thatās okay? Please let me know! I inspired myself from the original story behind the song which was a bad breakup. Iād love to hear your feedbacks to know if I should stick to fluff!
You scanned the room, clinging onto your glass for dear life. Events werenāt really your forte, work events even less but a work events that also included the Avengers was about as pleasant for you as getting your teeth pulled out without anesthesia. Because you knew that seeing the Avengers meant seeing Bucky. And seeing Bucky meant apologizing to him, facing him, looking him right in the eyes to tell him you were sorry. Sorry about having left him so abruptly after an umpteenth Ā fight.
It had been over a year ago and you had had time to get over it. You had started over in a new company that was equally as well equipped as Stark Industries, found yourself a new apartment, you even shortened your hair. You were a new person and you were doing perfectly fine. But when your boss told you he was hosting an event in hope to charm Stark into buying the company you were working for, your blood turned cold.
You had had two weeks to get ready, find the perfect outfit, learn your breathing exercises again and, most of all, prepare an apology speech to Bucky. After talking about it to your therapist, she had made you understand you both needed that apology to move on. It would enable you to somehow forgive yourself and it would help Bucky to get some closure. You couldnāt imagine just how bad he was doing. But deep down you knew you had done it to protect yourself, you needed to go.

This is for @sgtjbucckyĀ ās writing challenge and I hope it turned out alright. I just let all my depressive thought into this so you better know itās just pure angst and I donāt even feel sorry for this.Ā Even tho I kinda do. I donāt really know what to even think of the writing but I guess itās alright because itās not my native language and Iām nowhere near being fluent.
Warnings: PURE ANGST, suicide, loss of loved one, depressive thoughts, death, honestly dont read if you get triggered easily

Tony Stark x reader

You stood on the edge of a cliff, so close that just one more step would do it. Everything would be over. It scared you but it also kept calling for you, calling for you to become one within darkness that lived inside you. To let it take over and swallow you completely. To be at peace.
You took your phone from your pocket. You took a look at your lock screen and felt yourself to start crying heavier. It was a picture of your ex-fiance and you together. The memories of that night flood into your mind like a hurricane. He was so happy then. All the drinks and people made him forget the pain and loss he had suffered. He had never been as affectionate towards you ever as he was that night. All the small kisses he planted on your lips and cheeks that night were nothing but a warm memory now.
Your tears stained your phoneās screen. You didnāt even bother to wipe them away as you unlocked it and went to your voice messages. You saw there were some new ones, but you decided to ignore them as you scrolled down to latest one from him. You hesitated to click on it, as you knew after it there was no going back. This would be it. The end.
You turned your phone off. You couldnāt do it. You took a deep breath in and felt your entire body shaking.Your chest felt heavier with every breath you took and it felt as your entire body would just collapse onto to the ground, but it didnāt and a scared and an agonized laugh escaped your lips as you pressed the phone your chest. You wanted this; you needed this. Needed to do this. It was time.
You turned your phone back on and went straight to the his voice mail. You needed to hear his voice one last time before seeing him again. āHey baby, itās me, Tony. Just wanted you to know that I love you. I love you with all of my fucked up, piece of shit heart. And Iām so sorry. I didnāt mean to get this bad. I swear, bab-ā, he was cut off mid-sentence by his voice breaking. You couldnāt see him but you knew he was crying. Ā āI just wanted to say that I love you and I know youāll hate me for doing this, but Iām doneā, once you heard these words from his, you were able to hear your heart shattering into million pieces.
The message was over. After you had heard the message for the first time, you went to his house as fast as you could but it was too late. You had misses him. He was gone. His house was empty. Nothing, expect one of his suits sitting on one lonely couch in the middle of a room. In that moment you let curiosity take over and you opened the suit. Only to find his dead body inside. You shouldāve seen the signs and stopped this from happening but you were too blue-eyed to ever see this happening. And it destroyed you. On the inside and outside.
You closed your phone and threw it over the edge. You could never hear his voice again in this life. Not that you ever wanted to again. Not in this life. Now you were ready. You could feel your body relax and the tears stopped falling. No more tears and no more pain. Just pure bliss.
And with the feeling of that bliss, you took the last step to eternal bliss. He would be by your side for all eternity from now on.

If youāve been watching the noise and paying attention to California, youāve heard about the Camp Fire.
In a matter of hours, the fire jumped to 20,000 acres. This morning it reached 70,000. My town of Paradise, where Iāve lived my entire life, was consumed entirely. Very little containment has been reached and the situation is absolute hell.
My house was one of the first to go.
My mom and my sisters and I barely got out, in separate cars, and we got separated for 10 hours. My mom and little sister were stuck in Paradise with all my pets in the flames until my stepdad was able to get gas to them so they could get out. My cat was lost, and I personally was only able to grab an extremely small amount of my own belongings because I was helping my mom to grab important documents and photos and to get the pets situated.
We are now homeless, with no clue where to go from here, and desperately in need of help to get food, clothes, supplies, anything. My mom has been disabled for 3 years and we survive on a single income from my stepdad, who is a firefighter. His friends have been hurt trying to fight this. We have a dog with us, and two guinea pigs, and a bearded dragon.
My mom set up a fundraiser, even though we are not at all the type to ask for so much help.
Cal Fire Family We lost our home in the Paradise Camp Fire yesterday. We didn't get to grab necessary items or clothing. We are lucky to be
āļø Thatās the last image of our house that I took this morning. It is now ashes and rubble.
If you can donate, it would mean the world to us, to help us get back on our feet. If you canāt, please share. Anything helps no matter how small.
Iāve just realised. Stan Lee will have a cameo in every single one of the MCU films from the original generation, but he wont be in any of the new gen films. Avengers 4 marks the end of the road for some of the OG Avengers, and itās also the end of the road for Stan.
Theyāve already got Captain Marvel ready to go, and theyāve finished all the filming for Avengers 4, so heāll be in both of those movies, but then everything that comes after ā Spidey Far From Home and onwards ā he wont be in. All the new gen films.
What Iām saying is, whichever original Avengers we permanently lose in A4, weāre losing Stan at the same time. Heās going out at the same time as them. A4 marks the end of an era, and thatās the film that his cameos will end with. Thatāsā¦.. actually kind of fitting, really. Heās going out at the end of an era.

It had been a few weeks since you left Steveās place and sadly you didnāt see Bucky for the rest of the time you were there. You wanted to, but it wasnāt good for you to leave Steveās side; he fell ill and it broke your heart to see him as weak again. It was like you two were children again as it reminded you of the times Steve laid in bed, barely able to move and you being too stubborn to leave his side even while your mother was begging you to come home so you wouldnāt get infected also, but no matter what you stayed at his side.
You had stayed there the entire time Steve was able to stay at home, but at one point he had to be hospitalized and it broke your heart. You couldnāt even remember the last time you had seen him in such a bad shape. Of course he had been hospitalized many times as a child, but not like this and it scared you. Probably more than it shouldāve.
You knew you shouldāve stayed in Brooklyn while he was in the hospital, but you were too scared to, so you went home. That didnāt mean you didnāt think of Steve everyday, because you did and you feared for his life. You werenāt sure of his survival this time and you just wanted to cry yourself to sleep every night but you didnāt. You returned to your work and played strong no matter what. You didnāt let yourself look tired in front of your co-workers nor did you let them see your swollen eyelids every morning. You fought through your fears and stayed in believe that Steve would make it through while still expecting the worst.
You didnāt hear from Steve for two months and once you realized how much time had passed, you panicked. First you sent a letter to him in hope that he would answer with Ćn a few weeks, but there was no answer. You took a few days to decide if you would go there and leave your job for a while again, but they couldnāt fire you, right? You were going to leave to check up on a friend if he was dead. Thatās good enough for a reason right?
It was night when you heard a knock on your front door and it made your heart jump up to your throat. You hoped it wasnāt someone who was supposed to tell you that Steveās dead. You look at the door knob for a long time before opening it. In fact you stared at it for so long that the person behind the other side started knocking again.
You took a deep breath in and let it out to relax yourself a bit. You opened the door to find Bucky on the other side, looking devastated. He kept looking down to his shoes and you saw tears slip down his cheeks, or you actually saw them falling down his face and hit his shoes. Your eyes immediately started to tear up as you already knew why he had came here. You put your hand to cover your mouth to quiet down your heart breaking whimpers.
As you were about to pull Bucky into a hug, you heard him laugh. You lifted his head up and saw him laughing hysterically. āAh, you totally bought it!ā Your blood started to boil and you slapped him. Hard. āYouāre an asshole James Barnesā, you said as you were stepping back inside your apartment and about to close the door. He had enough time to put his foot between, though, and he opened the door again. āCāmon Iām sorry, sweetheart. There is someone you might want to meet, thoughā, he smiled at you. At that you saw Steve come up behind him, in a wheelchair. You ran up to him and took him into your arms. Keeping him there for at least five minutes, but it felt like twenty seconds.
As you let him go you became mad. āHow dare you scare me like that, Steve?!ā Tears started to well up in your eyes. āIām sorry, (Y/N). We thought it wouldāve been funny, but we didnāt think that you would react so stronglyā, he tried explaining. āItās not funny! I thought you had died and that would be the last thing Iād ever want to hearā, your voice was about to break. āIām so sorry, (Y/N). We didnāt mean it like that. Iām still here and not going anywhere for a whileā, he smiled a sad smile to you. āI forgive like always but you canāt do that to me ever againā, you gave him a stern look and then the same look to Bucky which he only chuckled at.
You let the boys into your apartment and Bucky found his way to your couch fast and Steve found his place with his wheelchair right next to him beside the couch. āHow long will you be in that chair, Steve?ā you asked him. āJust for a few weeks until Iām strong enough to walk at least a mileā, he shrugged without thinking any of it. You were really concerned about to Steve until now and it felt like a burden had been taken away from your shoulders now that you knew he was okay and acting like himself again. You kept glancing at him all through the night as if you couldnāt believe he was actually there.
You three kept talking about everything and nothing at the same time until midnight when Steve started to feel tired and you quickly made a bed for him in the quest bedroom. Bucky took him there to, because he was stronger than you and it was easier for him to lift Steve up to the bed if he fell while trying to do it himself. Once he had made sure Steve was in bed, he came back and sat on the couch again. You were in the kitchen mean while making you and Bucky something little to eat as he had said he wasnāt hungry before while you had made Steve and yourself something to eat little after they had came inside your apartment.
You walked back to the living room where Bucky was sitting silently. He didnāt notice you walk in as he seemed to be lost in his thoughts. It made you wonder what is it that he was thinking about, what could make the oh-so famous ladies man so serious? āHey?ā, you said softly and he raised his head with saddened blue eyes of his. āIs everything okay?ā you were no longer concerned of Steve at all as the concern transferred towards Bucky. He only shook his head and let out a broken chuckle. You sat beside him, placing the plates of food on the coffee table in front of you and took him into your arms as he broke down crying. You werenāt sure if anyone had really comforted him since his mother and your heart broke once again because of him. You knew, though, that this isnāt the side he is willing to show many people and you felt honoured that he was able to be like this with you.
āI was so scared he was going to die this timeā, his voice broke mid-sentence. āHeās not going anywhere or Iāll bring him back one way or another. Then possibly kick his ass for leaving usā, you tried saying some comforting words to him and you guess they worked sense you heard him let out a heart-warming laugh. āYāknow you kind of promised me a next time last time I saw youā, he looked straight into your eyes with a glimpse of hope and wit.
āYouāre not trying to seduce me now are you, Mr. Barnes?ā He looked at you with a playful look and said: āOf course not! Iām not trying anything, because I am seducing youā, he winked at you and bit his lower lip. āHas anyone ever told you you have some odd mood swings, Barnes? You were literally just crying and youāre flirty? Youāre one weird man for sureā, you said to him, amused by his behavior. He shrugged. āMaybe, but Iām still quite sure you dig meā, his voice was so smooth now and it made you melt. Bucky noticed your reaction to his voice and pressed his lips against your ear and whispered: āYou like my voice, huh?ā With that he sent shivers down your spine. He pressed a gentle kiss onto your temple looking at you, admiring the sight in front of him.
You looked back at him now and glanced down at his lips, wondering if you should just grab him and kiss him. It would clear things and if neither of you felt anything at it, you could just forget your attraction towards him. So, you did. You grabbed his face and kissed him. It wasnāt a rough kiss. It was gentle and loving, which you wouldāve never expected from a ladiesā man like him.
After a while you pulled away from him. He stared into your eyes, amazed. You knew you mustāve looked the same as you gazed into his eyes. This moment was completely ruined by Steve, though, as you could hear him say in a bit louder voice than usual: āThese walls arenāt so thick, (Y/N)! I swear to god if youāre going to sleep with him while Iām here, Iām going to kick your arses to the next dimension!ā Both of you and Bucky bursted out laughing at his comment.
You didnāt sleep with him then, but Steve doesnāt know what happened during the few times you decided to meet without him before he left for war ;)
