Managed to get the merman Bucky, swap au, out before crashing.

Inspired by the fic by @vunblr. Their mer!Bucky had me hooked from chapter one and hasn’t left my mind since.

WaywardsUniverses Mermay: Day 1

Favourite Character

MER!BUCKY

Would you believe me if I told you this was my first time drawing a mermaid?

I decided to give him a tail that looked like his arm rather than an actual arm. In this he lost it in a fight against an eldritch HYDRA that ripped his arm off. He was defending Steve. And that will be the lore for him every time I draw him in Mer form

justice for mer!bucky i have missed him for YEARS 😭😭❤️❤️

😩

Poor Mer!Bucky!

Is it better or worse to tell you that I have 1.9k words officially written and three single-spaced pages of outline notes for him?

Maybe you'd like to read some of part two, nonnie?

The wind on his face meant something as it never had before because as he panted, chest heaving, it was the air fueling his lungs now instead of the water.

He was breathing.

With his right hand he reached over to stroke the indispensable octopus companion who had aided his swim and likely saved his life.

I wish I could tell you how grateful I am, Topi, he thought, but without words, actions would have to suffice. The squishy cephalopod had slunk back onto his left shoulder and squeezed its arms around his bicep reassuringly. Now we are even.

They could not stay like this though. As a human he had to put in more effort to move his arms back and forth and continue kicking his legs to stay afloat at the surface than he ever had with his fins and tail. He could feel his arms already bearing more of the brunt of the effort because these legs and their muscles were every inch of them new. The sensation of two independent limbs below his waist was strange and glorious, and all he wanted to do was flex and examine them, but he knew his immediate need was to get to shore. He swiveled around, looking over his shoulder, his body’s movement in the water sluggish compared to his mer abilities. Inconvenient and unexpected, but part of the deal, and nothing to complain about. He would get to land, and once he did, he would run.

After long last, I can reveal my art for the @shrinkyclinksrb! @stuckyflangst wrote an amazing fic (Ft such tags: enemies to lovers and interspecies romance 😉) that you all should definitely check out!

Here’s a snippet from the next part of my Mermay Winteriron AU

I’m quite obsessed with flustered!Bucky and completely-done!Tony.

Here’s the first part on Tumblr and AO3

---

Bucky looks down at the cup in his hands, obviously and adorably lost. Tony glances over at Howard— his dad looking between them in amusement— and touches Bucky’s shoulder, catching his gaze and motioning for him to follow Tony’s example.

Reaching into his glass, Tony fishes out a piece of algae, showing Bucky how it sticks slightly to his finger. Bucky copies him, and grabs a smaller piece in between his forefinger and thumb. Tony wishes he could feed the bit to Bucky himself, place it on his tongue and feel his pretty pink lips suck it from his hand.

Instead, he quickly places it on his own tongue, humming happily as the sweet and sour algae dissolves, sending a warm shiver down into his belly, clearing his head and heating him up from the inside out. Damn, his dad always has the best shit.

He turns his attention back to Bucky, watching intently as he follows suit and places the morsel in his mouth. His eyebrows shoot up, he looks down at the cup in shock— as if the remaining algae could provide some explanation— and then, to Tony’s dismay, Bucky lets out a guttural groan, eyes fluttering shut in pleasure as his cheeks hollow out, lips curling tight around his fingers while he sucks them clean.

Tony is having something close to a stroke, and his dad is laughing loudly in front of them, obviously finding Tony’s distress amusing. He’s going to commit regicide, and it’s going to be slow and painful and bloody.

He overcompensates by taking the lid off his glass and throwing the rest of the algae back, breathing deep as the sensation hits him all at once. As he sways a bit in place, he catches Bucky staring at him in amusement.

“Anthony,” his father sighs, shaking his head in annoyance, “do whatever you must. He can stay… in your rooms, primarily. Or in the guest lodging— as long as you have security on him at all times. Get Jarvis to set up residence wherever you’d like, Anthony. Just don’t let me hear it, and don’t let me see it.”

Bucky is frozen with another algae halfway to his mouth, flushed red and eyes wide. Tony is convinced that flustered is his natural state.
