“Steve Rogers,” Bucky states, nodding curtly as he takes in the sight of the man before him. There’s dried blood below his nose that contrasts sharply with his smooth, fair skin. His bottom lip is split and there’s some bruising below his left eye. And yet, Bucky thinks as he moves closer, even bloodied and bruised and sitting under fluorescent lights, the guy looks like a fucking demigod.

Some people have all the luck.

In which it takes a certain NYPD detective a little longer than it should to recognize a national icon.

Submit your own fic!recs :)

Happy Thanksgiving Week! Family, friends, and food-comas. Below are my Top 5 Favorite stories:

“4 Minute Window”  (E, 148k) by Speranza

It was nearly five years after Captain America disappeared (again) that the Captain America balloon debuted in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

+ Reposted from Starter Pack because it’s a Stucky Holiday Tradition. Speranza has been adding a Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade fic every year since 2014

“Muscle Memory” (T, 3k) by emphasisonem

“Relax, I won’t interfere,” Tony raises his hands in surrender. “Besides, it wouldn’t be that much fun. Too easy.”

Bucky’s brow furrows as he glares at the older man. “What the hell is that supposed to mean, Stark?”

“It means that Old Glory’s in love with you too, you dope,” Tony huffs out a laugh, rising from his chair. “Or did you not notice?”

 In which Tony and Bucky begin to bond when Tony finds out Bucky can cook, and the two of them prepare a Thanksgiving dinner for the other Avengers. Also, Steve gets a little bit jealous.

+ Post CW. Mutual pining, shipper Tony, and a whole lot of food.

-☆-

“Comfy Cozy are We” (G, 1k) by reserve

"Got anything to be thankful for, Steve?" Natasha asks him, and smiles enigmatically.

After months of travel, Sam Wilson and Steve Rogers return to DC. Suddenly it's Thanksgiving.

+ Post WS. Steve sets out an extra place setting just in case Bucky comes back.

-☆-

“What's Mine is Yours and Yours is Mine (temporarily at least)” (NR, 8k) by Lesserknownhero

Two lovable idiots grab the wrong bags at the airport.

Silliness and awkward flirting ensues.

+ Modern AU. Mutual crushes. Sam is a good wingman and invites Bucky to Friendsgiving 

-☆-

“T.Hanks-Giving With the Barneses” (T, 6k) by odetteandodile

It's been a little over a month since Bucky met Steve at Clint's Halloween party, and three weeks since he realized he's accidentally started dating Captain America.

Steve might be a decorated war vet, superhero, and certified badass--but Bucky doesn't think any of that will make much of a difference as they face their scariest mission yet: Meeting the Barneses.

Featuring Thanksgiving with Bucky's family, embarrassing childhood stories, fluffy family feels, and Steve Rogers continuing to exceed all of Bucky's expectations in every way he can think of.

+ Shrunkyclunks. Steve fits in with the family just fine and Bucky realizes there’s long term potential

“The Great Turkey Tussle of 2016″ (T, 1k) by emphasisonem

“Are you serious?” Steve asks, brow furrowing and lips curling into something close to a sneer. “I don’t want your money, pal. I just wanna give my ma a nice Thanksgiving. You’re gonna have to look elsewhere for a turkey. I will fuckin’ fight you for it.”

The other man’s gray eyes widen comically as he looks down at Steve. “I’m not gonna fight you for a turkey, kid.”

In which the boys meet trying to buy the last turkey in their local grocery store.

+ Modern AU. Meet ugly at the grocery store turns into an impromptu invitation. The sequel covers Thanksgiving dinner and not-so-fake dating.

☀️ - song for a sunny day, 🌇- song that inspires me

☀️ - song for a sunny day

yesterday was actually super gorgeous while I was on my way to work and Higher by The Naked and Famous started playing and it was PERFECT

🌇- song that inspires me

creatively speaking the most inspiring song I’ve heard recently was Islands by Rynn -idk why it just gave me some ideas

but as a pick me up? Keeping Your Head Up by Birdy (who I LOVE)

Sculptures and gems for the formal things ask.

Gems: It kind of depends. But usually I don’t really like having a lot of attention on me. Especially if it’s people I don’t know. If that makes any sense.

Sculptures: I don’t think I do! Before my boyfriend I had a bad track record of getting crushes on the worst guys. As far as favorite characters it just depends on how their written. Like if you had told me 8 years ago Steve Rogers/Captain America would be one of my favorite characters I’d have probably thought you were crazy.

Bucky’s been a masseuse for ten years now; he’s been working at his friend Natasha’s place - Tasha’s Massage Therapy - in Chicago for almost five of those years. He’s damn good at what he does, so he’s not worried that he’ll screw up or anything.

But it would have been fucking swell for his friend to mention that the new client she’d pinned him with is a goddamn major league pitcher on whom Bucky has had a massive crush for years.

 In which Steve is a professional pitcher dealing with an injury, Bucky is a masseuse and Natasha is consistently amused.

If you write fanfiction...

I'm not going to say that you've saved my life (because apparently that is melodramatic and maudlin and pulling the curtain back a little too far), but I am going to tell you that you've made the hours during which I have read your work some of the happiest and most creative I have had. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

For the color thing: yellow 💛

What view do I want from my bedroom? Hmm that’s hard. I guess I would mind a slightly wooded area. Which I’ve sort of got now.

Favorite thing to do on a sunny day- stay in (I’m pale and like to avoid the sun)

What do I consider lucky- hmm I’m actually not sure.

What made me smile today- my puppy.

What makes me happy- writing, my puppy, my boyfriend, my friends and family. And the awesome tumblr/stucky community
