@wscldier asked: “ I don't recognize myself. ”

Steve    watched    Bucky’s    face    as    those    words    fell    from    his    mouth—quiet,    almost    broken.    It    hit    Steve    like    a    punch    to    the    gut.    There    were    bruises    and    scars    he’d    learned    to    live    with,    but    this—this    wasn’t    something    that    could    be    patched    up    with    time    or    tech    or    even    trust.    This    was    deeper.    This    was    Bucky,    his    best    friend,    standing    in    front    of    him,    wearing    his    own    face    like    a    stranger’s    mask.

He    stepped    forward    slowly,    his    voice    low,    steady,    the    way    he    used    to    talk    to    Bucky    back    when    they    were    kids    and    the    world    seemed    just    a    little    too    loud.    “Maybe    you    don’t,”    Steve    said,    his    eyes    never    leaving    Bucky’s.    “But    I    do.”    He    wanted    Bucky    to    hear    that,    to    feel    it.    “I    see    the    guy    who    used    to    pull    me    out    of    alley    fights.    I    see    the    man    who    followed    me    into    Austria    because    he    believed    in    something    bigger    than    himself.    And    yeah,    you’ve    been    through    hell.    But    you    came    back.    That    means    something.”Steve    didn’t    pretend    to    understand    all    of    it—the    Winter    Soldier    program,    the    years    stolen,    the    guilt    that    hung    off    Bucky’s    shoulders    like    a    second    uniform.    But    he    could    carry    part    of    it. 

  “You    don’t    have    to    fight    to    be    who    you    were.    Just    be    here.    Be    now.    And    if    you    can’t    recognize    yourself,    let    me    remind    you,    as    many    times    as    it    takes.”    Steve’s    voice    cracked    slightly,    but    he    didn’t    care.    “You’re    still    my    friend.    You’re    still    Bucky.    That’s    enough.”    And    maybe    it's    not    for    the    man    before    him.    But    it    is    for    Steve.    He    spend    so    many    years    trying    to    figure    out    why    he    was    alive.    Why    he    was    brought    back.    And    then    Bucky    was    there.    And    he    knew.    He    could    fight    to    defend    the    world,    and    also,    save    his    friend.    "I    need    you    here,    Buck."

( @fuckedhorror ) dallas > adelyn : “I’ll protect you with my life”

brows furrow, dark gaze locked on his as she reaches forward to cup his jaw tenderly. Adelyn shakes her head, bringing their faces closer until she's able to rest their foreheads together & eyes shut, breathing him in for a moment. " Dallas . . . " his name is spoken softly, noses bumping while they're huddled together in his room above his father's shop. this may not be the first place Cersei's guards will look for her but it certainly won't be the last & Adelyn knows that nowhere in King's Landing will be safe for her maybe nowhere in the Seven Kingdom's.

" i just lost my father & i refuse to lose you too. " pulling away to catch his eyes, Adelyn gives him the freedom to see the tears pooling, unafraid to be vulnerable like this in front of him. " your life is worth far too much to me for you to just throw it away, Dallas. " thumbs brush along his cheeks as she etches his face into her memory, she's afraid she may never see it again after tonight. " nothing is going to happen. Varys is waiting for me just outside the city . . . i'll be gone soon & you'll be safe. " even though her voice is steady, her lips still tremble with this goodbye she never truly thought they would ever have to go through this. leaning forward, Adelyn leaves a lingering kiss to the corner of his mouth, wanting nothing more than to have more time with him but forces herself to step away & move towards the door. " don't forget about me. "
