Bucky can't explain to anyone how strange it is to wake up in Wakanda with five years gone in a blink, in a second. The last thing he remembers was trying to get to Steve, and then General Okoye is telling them—because it's not just Bucky, it's so many people—that five years have passed and the rest of the world went on without them.

He should be used to it, he supposes, but he had really thought that he was done sliding through time, finished missing years. He had promised himself—had promised Steve—after that last time in Wakanda to get rid of the trigger words that it would be the last time, that he wouldn't leave like that again. He had thought it was a promise he could keep.

~o~

In which Steve and Bucky return the Infinity Stones, and return to a world drastically changed from the one Bucky left five years ago, and Bucky has to struggle with the knowledge that his best friend held Mjölnir, and at least briefly had the power of a god. So where does that leave an ex-brainwashed assassin?

Snippet:

 "I've done a lot of things I'm not proud of," Steve says, "I try to do my best, but it's not always enough."

 "Steve," Bucky says, because there's nothing in Steve's ledger that compares to his.

 Steve shakes his head and meets Bucky's gaze. "The worst thing I did, during those five years that you were gone… When I thought you were dead, and after we couldn't get the stones from Thanos, after we killed him—I gave up."

 Bucky looks at him, stunned, and can't help squeezing his hands hard in between his own. "You didn't—"

 "I did," Steve says. His eyes are steady and clear, but sad. "Natasha never did—she just kept going, trying to be Nick Fury in a world without him. Even the garden—she was always planning for the future, and I was barely making it from day to day."

 "I didn't know," Bucky says, feeling helpless. He hates the thought of Steve, lost and almost alone. He feels the sudden surge of gratitude for Natasha.

 "And that's on me," Steve says, "because I didn't tell you, because it seemed like—we're with each other now, so why dwell on it? But you need to know, because every time you had a choice, you chose to keep trying. But me? I gave up."

 "And then you came back swinging, as soon as you had a lick of hope." Bucky cups Steve's face in his hand and kisses him. "God, I'm glad you did."

 Steve's eyes go soft, and then he's stripping Bucky of his filthy clothes, and pulling him down to the bed.

 Bucky gets his hands on Steve in return, and lets himself be drawn down, one imperfect man who loves another.

Unveil triumph, my friend, and let your masterpiece unfold.

A better direction in life.

This also means to reinvent yourself, to stop getting attached to the old way of doing things, and thus...

Life is about creating yourself. Having said that, many of us get used to something, even if it is not giving us good results, and we stay there and continue on that path. But sometimes a new scenery, a change in habits, a new lifestyle is needed to create something better in our lives. Sometimes a particular relationship is too much drama, fights, arguments, trying hard to be happy; and for that…

Introduction

Hi! I’m Lyssa, this is going to be a blog where I begin my writing journey again. For all the things I carelessly have whispered, I’m going to turn them into creations and get back into writing.  I’m also going to use this blog for RP’ing, mainly in the Fate Fandom. So let’s see where this takes me. Thanks for stopping by!

Beginning Anew

Year five on the I Ho Chuan team is now underway and so are the new forms everyone is making. Time to get to work, or rather continue the pace in a new direction. This year I am working with my tanto sword, the little sword on the top of my weapon rack in the background of my training space. I am utilizing the sheath as if it’s a second weapon so the form should present itself similarly to a dual knife form. I have also decided to try making my own hand form. Which means I won’t be able to tally reps of either form until I have a beta version for each.

Looking forward to seeing what the rest of you come up with and what weapons you are using.

January

January

Some would see a barren tree

I see hope and a future

Some would see another sunset

I see the promise of another day

I see green in January

The whispers of prior rains

I see colors, colors everywhere

I see mountains beyond the plains

We all get to choose what and how we see

We all get to choose our way

We all get to choose which direction to go

We all…
