Couch to Marathon Training Plan ~ by BoldlyLuckyCheesecake [20,087 words; M]

Bucky Barnes is missing something.  Since he's gotten out of the army (not a choice he got to make), he's checked off all the boxes to Successfully Adult. But between work and seeing his sister and soon-to-be-parent friends he's gotten into a rut.

Maybe joining a gym for veterans and being paired up with human Adonis Steve Rogers is what he needs to fill that missing something.

(basically a meet-cute involving a gym, excessive amounts of running, and a cat because I'm completely self-indulgent and just want them to be happy!)

Find A Way (To Make It Back Home) ~ by belwrites [32,766 words; M]

Fresh off a year abroad, Head Resident Assistant Steve Rogers finds his senior year of college to be full of changes, and he's not just talking about the growth spurt. He's more concerned with the fact that his best friend...isn't talking to him? Is dating his ex? May or may not be missing an arm?

In which Steve has no fucking clue what's going on, but he's trying, Bucky learns how to communicate with his best friend again, and everyone quietly panics about the future.
