정기고 (Junggigo) - 말하자면 (Feat. Hoody) (Prod. Primary)
Well, yesterday was the one year anniversary of the day I first posted i will soar, then! I was hoping to get the final chapter up by today, but alas, that isn’t the case. (Can you believe I've had sections of it written for literally a year? And I still haven't finished?)
Anyways, I know things have been quiet, but I'm posting to let anyone who cares know that I am still working on it, and I have full intentions to keep writing! I’ve had a lot of major life changes in the past year, but I’m grateful to all of you who read iwst and are patiently waiting—the end will come, eventually.
chapter 8
I will soar, then is BACK baby
“Believe it or not, I never thought I'd be Captain America,” Sam says wryly, and Bucky snorts.
“You mean that wasn't the plan all along? Befriend Steve, save the world once or twice to earn his trust, then bide your time until you can steal his job?”
“It worked, didn’t it? I’m going after Thor next.” Sam could lift that stupid hammer. Bucky’s sure of it.
“It just seems so impossible, you know?” Sam huffs out a bitter chuckle. “If you’d told me years ago, that one day I’d meet Steve Rogers on a morning run, throw my life into a blender for him, and then come out the other side as Captain America? Hell no.”
“You’re telling me,” Bucky laughs. Shared life experience, and all that. They might be the only two people left who can truly understand what it was to love Steve, to be loved by Steve, and to let him go.
“After a while, things were happening too fast for me to process them, so I guess I just… stopped.” Sam sighs. “I’ve always been a bottler. My old therapist said that being a counselor was the best and worst job I could have—the best because I was good at it, and the worst because I dealt with everyone else’s problems to avoid my own. Guess I never really grew out of that.”

Hey....I love your writing so much and I will soar, then has got to be one of the best sambucky fics i've read...not to be pushy or anything but is there a possibility the last chapter will be uploaded? 🥺...if you've moved on from the story I totally get it since you're doing this for free, if that is the case, I'd like to thank you for sharing such a great fic 💖
oh anon you're so sweet! I'm actually working on it right now, taking a break to answer you! the last chapter of IWST is very much still in progress, and I still fully intend to write that sequel-thing.
my hope was to have the fic finished by the time classes started, but that uh, didn't work out so great... so now I have less time to write, and the chapter keeps getting longer and longer and longer and oh god we're at 14k, it might have to be two chapters. anyways. I promise it is coming! I wish I could say when, but honestly, I'm so busy between work and school that it might be weeks more. Thank you for hanging on with me!
For your troubles, here's a snippet:

im working on the last chapter, but life has been hectic lately so it will probably be another week before I get it finished (and it's gonna be stupid long again (again)). i’m also working on edits for the fic as a whole, as well as a short sequel, so you will still have stuff to look forward to when it’s over!
thanks to everyone who read or commented on or left kudos on or just enjoyed this fic!!! your support keeps me writing <3
