A knife goes through the side of the last person you ever wanted to see stabbed, who are they and what do you do after seeing it?
"People." Winter corrected, voice tight and irritated, "I'm equally against either Bucky or Yasha being stabbed. Immediate response would be to put a bullet through the head of whoever did it and proceed to take whoever had been stabbed to medical." he stated simply.
Difficult Choice: Winter, something is going wrong in your head and you can only save (somehow) one of them, which do you? Bucky or Yasha?
"I…that would never happen." Winter declared stubbornly, shaking his head, “I’d…I would just have to…find a way to save them both. I would be able to…sacrifice myself over those two…if that would be an option, but it wouldn’t be in the scenario you’re laying out…" he sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose, “Bucky. It was his body first and I was created by his subconscious to protect him. Not only would that never happen, but if it did, I’m fast thinking enough to figure out a way to save them both." he insisted.
Winter shoved Bucky down under the table to join Yasha, scowling at them both, "Will you two just stay with me?" he hissed. They were the only ones he worried about. The others could handle themselves. They were SHIELD agents. Yasha and Bucky had relied on him to keep them all alive too many times in the past.
He knew that a cure was out there and the higher ups were working on finding a way to stem it into the air vents. So, he'd stay here, back pressed against the overturned desk hiding Bucky and Yasha from view, gun pointed at the door, gun cartridges at his side, ready to be replaced. He'd shoot anything that came through the door, unwilling to take the risk that they were infected.
Sure, he killed people he recognized. He killed people that had Bucky lunging at him and Yasha pinning the man down. But in the end, he saved the three of them, and that was always his number one priority.
Winter Soldier receives news regularly on the state of Yasha and Bucky because his captors are determined to make him show emotion. The following are the lists of news related to his other halves which are delivered to Winter Soldier: 1) Yasha was successfully reprogrammed and has no memory of Bucky, Winter, or any of the people he met at Shield. 2) Bucky has not eaten in a week. 3) Yasha is being tortured by Red Room's Feliks 4) Bucky no longer knows the difference between nightmare and reality
The physical torture was simple to handle. Pain was just a sensation. Cut yourself off from the sensation and there was nothing to worry about. It was the speaking that ultimately did him in.
We know you care Winter Soldier. Your Russian doesn’t remember you and perhaps won’t remember himself by the time he is finished in the torture chamber. Your Brooklyn boy is dying inside his own mind and out of it. Break. Even you can’t survive forever.
Winter used to share a head with a professional liar. He picked up on signs that someone was lying.
There were no signs of deception.
Just like there were no signs of distress on Winter’s face, in spite of the screaming going on inside his head.
I actually have to sleep at a decent hour tonight, so I'm probably not gonna be threading anymore, and only really gonna be on if I finished one of those two drabbles.
I just have this HC where Yasha, now un-deprogrammed after his Red Room experience, comes back to SHIELD, surprised by the missing Winter and Bucky.
And then he lays waste to their enemies, going overprotective on his other halfs (thirds?) and destroying HYDRA and Winter's enemies from the inside out.
And Bucky is stunned, all ' why would you save me, you hate me?' and Yasha is exasperated, rolling his eyes 'don't be stupid. I just had to save you...because you might know where Winter is...' but then they both look at each other and for once, Bucky can actually tell when the liar is lying, but because Bucky is nice, he doesn't call him on it, just looks down and smiles.
And when Winter is saved by Yasha, he just flips his shit, going on and on and on about how dangerous his enemies are, especially the ones that could take him and how Yasha was stupid and shouldn't have come and Yasha is just all arrogant and irritating like 'psh, please, they are nothing on my Russian perfection' and Winter eventually just simmers down and rolls his eyes.
Then they go home and mun has all the Coldwarwinter feels.
What if: Yasha caught Winter kissing Bucky? (cause coldwarwinter ftw)
Yasha’s eyebrows shot up. Figures that the only time the Winter Soldier is distracted enough to not hear his footsteps is when he is occupied with Bucky.
Or rather, Bucky’s lips.
Yasha crossed his arms over his chest, letting his lips curl into a smirk as he leaned against the threshold of Bucky’s doorway. After a few moments with no end in sight, he pointedly cleared his throat.
Look at that. Bucky wasn’t the only one that could turn scarlet. Winter can too…
“Y-Yasha-“
“Listen, Yasha, you must understand-“
“Oh, I don’t have to understand anything. конвульсии, starting without me.” he tsked, and while Bucky and Winter comprehended that, he slipped onto the bed between them, dragging Bucky’s lips to his.
Note: This is for the request: Bucky and Yasha make the Soldier's first time special. No smut in it, just a set up for smut. They'll be a second part eventually when I'm in a more smut-writing mood.
If you asked any of them, they would tell you that they had no idea how it happened. And they didn’t. One day they were permanently separated, able to leave one another’s sides, but they just...didn’t leave.
And they made a relationship work.
Even though it was a relationship with two men who really enjoyed sex and one guy who was actually a virgin. Winter proposed the obvious solution. Yasha and Bucky could have as much sex as they wanted, he wouldn’t mind being left out.
But Bucky and Yasha certainly minded him being left out.
“Boys...” Winter objected quietly, but Yasha still pressed a line of kisses to the back of his neck, and Bucky still dug his fingernails only a bit possessively into his hips.
“Winter, don’t you trust us?” Bucky murmured, leaning up to lazily kiss him, tongue tracing his lips. Winter whimpered slightly as Yasha nipped at the junction where shoulder met neck. Bucky pulled back from the kiss to give the Russian a warning look. Slow and steady, like they agreed.
“You two are the only ones I trust...” Yasha ran his tongue over the bite, soothing it. “B-But sex is supposed to be between people who are beyond trust. Who love and would take a bullet for one another and that amount of trust...”
“You think we don’t love you?” Yasha’s accent was already thick, “You think we wouldn’t jump in front of a bullet for you?”
“We would.” Bucky murmured, slipping his arms around both Winter and Yasha’s hips, pulling the three of them together. “We would take a bullet for you in an instant, we’ve loved you for a long, long time, and we don’t trust anyone more than we trust you.” Yasha slide his arms over Winter’s shoulders to cup the back of Bucky’s neck with his hands, effectively locking Winter into place.
Winter’s breathing picked up slightly, swallowing hard. “Boys...” Uncertainty was obvious, and nervousness, but there was a deeper undertone there.
“Come to bed with us. Just come to bed. We won’t force you into anything. We’ll just see what happens, yes?” Yasha murmured in his ear. Bucky nodded his agreement, pressing a kiss to Winter’s jaw.
