The Other Earth
Ok, we played the prompt game on the BBB discord server and I meshed all the prompts together. Prompts:
@rebelmeg : pet fic, bakery AU, crack @Magica: Stars, "Oh, a wise guy, eh?", chicken soup @MadilyneHale: Lies, Baby bottles, "These aren't mine" @LLightz: Lake, Mythical creature, Parachute @dreaminglypeach Alcohol, dystopia, Nat. (if anyone knows the tumblr of the others please let me know) That resulted in a fill for my bingo ( @buckybarnesbingo ) and a summary for a multichaptered fic I really wanna do now. Title: The other Earth (-Beginning-) Collaborator: Fighting_for_Creativity/J_Gun_i (and the guys giving the prompts) Square Filled: K5 Great Depression Ship/Main Pairing: Nat/Bucky/Tony Rating: Mature (may changes in the future to explicit) Major Tags/Warnings: Amnesia, persumed dead, Family, mystical creatures, slight crack (later), bakery Au elements, mention of alcohol abuse Summary: Bucky had a cat, had a job at a local bakery and some odd jobs here and there. At night, he would look in the sky, trying to figure out the constellations, seeing the stars differently than he faintly remembered. At the same time on one of those stars far away, a star named Earth, Tony Stark held his baby boy, whispering, "One day, you’ll know you're the world.[...]"(will be updated when I do more for this) Word Count: 368 (-Beginning/Actual Summary of the most likely multi chaptered fic-) --- Bucky had loved the dog next door back when they were kids. He had tried to argue with his ma over and over and over that he would take good care of a pet if he ever got one. But money was tight, and his sisters’ and Steve's health were more important than having a pet. So one of the things Bucky did once he remembered and was 'fine' was look for a dog. He hadn't expected to find a cat, but he loved her dearly.
Bucky was stable for a while, had a cat, had a job at a local bakery and some odd jobs here and there. At night, he would look in the sky, trying to figure out the constellations, seeing the stars differently than he faintly remembered.
At the same time on one of those stars far away, a star named Earth, Tony Stark held his baby boy, feeding him stardust from a bottle and whispering, "One day, you’ll know you're the world. One day, you’ll know you are a wise guy. But wisdom comes with age and until then you are just smart."
Natalia was with him, standing in the background watching them, knowing things she shouldn't. She had tried to drown her foresight with alcohol, but it never lasted. Flashes of their world, their planet destroyed, burned and scourged had plagued her since she was a small child.
"These aren't mine" she had said over and over when the doctors viewed her mind, when BARF showed Tony her innermost secrets.
Besides Tony, everyone judged her though. Believing her to be cruel and wanting this. But she didn't. The boy in Tony's arms was proof of that. On silent soles, she made her way into the kitchen to cook the chicken soup the way her mother taught her.
A side glance at the parachute they had rediscovered. The parachute of their friend and lost lover. It had been found floating on a lake not far away. And.... If the myths were to be believed, it led to a world beyond. To a star far away. A star Tony was looking at. A star Bucky hopefully now lived on, amongst the mythical creatures, cats.
