So, I've been thinking about posting a series of masterlists for a while, since I've sort of been accruing a variety of fics lately, so I thought I'd start with my SamBucky Fantasy AUs 🥰
So, HERE IS THE LIST, BY LENGTH:
1) Golden is the Sun (M, 41,221) - "Sam has seven days to find a spouse out of hundreds of suitors before he becomes king. He has no clue how he's going to choose a spouse, let alone run a city-state. But at least he's not the biggest mess at this week-long event. That title goes to the very entertaining James Buchanan 'Bucky' Barnes."
Golden is the Sun is the beginning of my "If We Are Celestial Bodies" series and just a really fun story filled with elaborate outfits and sublime forces of nature, all wrapped up in a subversion of the Arranged Marriage AU. Some might even call it a Democracy AU 😂
It's sequel, Vibrant is the Moon, is a touch more serious in tone, but is also great, and the series also has a retelling of one of the folktales I made for it called "The Merman and the Baker" as well as a series of ongoing side stories that didn't fit within the piece called "Orbiting Satellites". It really is a fun universe 🥰
2) His Wingless Angel (M, 21,714) - "Sam Wilson found the most peculiar thing in the forest under his floating city: a wingless man."
His Wingless angel is an expansion of a ficlet I wrote for SamBucky Halloween 2021 called "The Wingless Stranger". It's a blend of retro future ideas and Hayao Miyazaki fantasy that tells the story of 1940s Bucky falling into a different universe rather than being captured by HYDRA and how his relationship with Sam grows as he stays in that world.
It's a sweet, wondrous tale about a man learning how to live in a new land and two people falling in love.
3) Passing Through (M, 1,381) - Mysterious Conjurer Bucky washes up on the shore of Sam's home island of Delacroix. Sam realizes what he's been missing in his life - adventure - and decides to go with Bucky and his ominous friend Steve to face off with dark forces threatening the world.
I'm planning on expanding this one at some point into a full-on piece, possibly calling the expansion "The Alchemist Coast", but Passing Through was originally created for the Samtember 2021 event going on under the prompt "Fireflies".
It's a short ficlet filled with mystery, magic, and slice of life moments.
4) Oh, Siren Song (M, 1,179) - The tale of Siren!Sam encountering Pirate!Bucky.
This one I'm definitely thinking about expanding into something a little longer, maybe just a miniseries, but it was also created for the Samtember 2021 event under the prompt "wings" since older myths involving sirens described them as birdlike and with wings.
It's a fun, little goofy story, that ends on a sweet note 🥰
I'll probably do an updated version of this at some point, but these are all my Fantasy AUs thus far! I hope you enjoy them! 🥰
So Sam is still basically The Boy King right? Does that make him the king because his brother is big daddy demon? With Crowley being the head of sales.
