anyway stevebuckynat are my fav because nat's the perfect bridge between present-day bucky and steve and all their bullshit and communication issues And nat gets the benefit of not one but two people who come as close as possible to understanding her

"Bucky is willing to do whatever it takes to woo his long-time crush Natasha, even going so far as to gain a bunch of weight. But for some reason, Steve seems to be way more affected than Nat…"
New chubby Bucky fic! So far, there's one chapter posted!
sub!steve and sub!bucky but with a femdom in between them..
Hell. Yeah.
I love this and I have actually been reading a lot of fics with Steve/Bucky/Natasha recently so this is very pertinent to my current fandom consumption lol
There's just something so good about two subs and one dom and you add stucky to that dynamic and I-
*chef's kiss*
I'm fucking DONE FOR. My queer ass is over.
Specifically though, something that I'm ALWAYS down for is Steve and Nat or Bucky and Nat who already have a dynamic, then bringing the other into the fold because they want them so bad. Both of them together want the third. There's something about it that scratches both peak romance and lust for me, saying that we have each other and that is wonderful but we're also open to discovering more. We're open to more love and more lust and you, this additional person, bring that to us. If you will have us. And if you will... all of us together will be us also, just a new version of us.
However, what I can't decide here is if I'm more into the idea of Romanogers (Nat and Steve) or Winter Widow (Bucky and Nat) first becoming an item™️ before they all get together... like:
Romanogers has Good Potential in origin...
Especially when you think about sub!Steve, because Natasha could be Steve's first dom since Bucky (if we pre-establish them before the fall and ice) and his first dom in the new century.
Natasha makes Steve feel safe.
She sees his soft side and his needs (needing to go down after such a long, stressful time out of subspace that it is splintering him apart, harming him) before he can even recognize those needs himself. Either before he can recognize them because he's so stressed and anxious he can't think OR recognizing his needs before he can because he doesn't know. Maybe all Steve knows is that Bucky and him played rough, non-traditionally, and Bucky told him what to do back in the day. They didn't call it dom/sub back then. Now they do.
Now Natasha helps him figure it out.
Domination and submission. A dominate partner, a submissive partner.
Now Steve helps Natasha at the same time that she helps him because she doesn't have to put energy into reading Steve, Steve is open, everything Steve does is done because he wants to follow Natasha's orders, he wants to please her. He has no alternative motives and its soothing. Steve is simple. Steve is simply controlled by her, unlike every other part of her life where she was controlled or follows orders as a gun for hire. Steve is controlled, held safe in the orders she gives rather than being the leader (despite being the youngest Avenger at the time he is thawed and reintroduced to the world).
They help each other.
When not Avenging, they're wrapped up in each other, knowing each other so intimately.
And when Bucky comes back...
Steve cannot help the pull he has toward him. Natasha feels the pull too and at first she cannot differentiate if (a) she is so connected to Steve, intertwined, and Steve's pull toward Bucky is so strong that she feels it too, if (b) she is pulled to Bucky because of their danced history in the shadows of the redroom together, or if (c) she is simply attracted to him. After all, he does have a very attractive face in general...
Either way, she gives Steve the go-ahead. Chase him. Talk to him. Whatever comes of it will come of it.
All the while, Natasha thinks. Staying distant from their once more growing connection but not too far. She processes her feelings and comes to the conclusion of yes. All of those reasons she feels pulled to Bucky are true, but mostly, she does want him. Independently, she herself- she wants him.
That then established, they begin a relationship. All of them together.
And later, based on Steve's hushed previous words that were always tinted with pink cheeks and fidgeting hand... Natasha expects that Bucky's previous dominant nature and his capture under HYDRA's boot heel will make him like her, when they eventually get to being intimate (if he ever wants to go there at all, he doesn't have to)... but it doesn't.
He doesn't want to dominate her. Or Steve. He actually wants...
He wants to be made to not think.
He, at first, is exhausted by having to care for himself when he barely feels worth the effort, but then, later, he relishes in the power of giving over control again but this time at his own choice. His reestablished free will. Submission is a gift. Submissives may be giving themselves over and they may be the ones who's body is used but they have the power. They can say one word and their dominant will stop. Bucky likes the freedom yet remaining control of being submissive.
Steve likes the freedom too. He likes being made to pleasure Bucky on Natasha's orders; nothing but a toy or a pet for his dominant to use on her submissive... sucking and licking and warming Bucky's cock until he's dizzy with oxygen deprivation, red in the face and sweating where he's kneeling between Bucky's spread thighs, his lips swollen, drooling, and yet still ready to stay put because Natasha told him to. Natasha told him he needs to get five out of Bucky, then he can have his. Not that it matters if their pet is good enough to wring five orgasms out of her submissive because, well, pets don't need much, do they? Anything gets them up and ready, humping anything they can get between their legs even though their pleasure doesn't matter too much. Needy and cute.
Winter Widow has Good Potential in origin too though...
Like, maybe Steve and Natasha don't interact that that closely other than their work as Avengers because basically as soon as Steve is in the modern world he is fighting, fighting, and f- finding Bucky.
Finding Bucky with Sam.
Then, on the run with Sam.
So, Steve isn't around Natasha a ton, not until Bucky after comes back and they're no longer criminals for not killing Bucky on sight. And with Bucky back, Natasha is there. Natasha and Bucky bond because words are hard for Bucky at first and more often then not, when they do come out, they're in Russian. Natalia understands Russian. Natalia also understands when the bad memories come back first. Not the good ones, those are harder to find. The bad memories are hazy, dark, frightening, no, bone-chillingly terrifying of the abuse, torture, and some memories of the redroom that she can help Bucky to untangle. Other than knowing that he knows Steve, Bucky does not remember much of his life with Steve at first. He uncovers the redroom memories before those ones. The memories of Natalia. The only person who has been through that that he can see and touch and is real.
But also he just-
He finds it easy to be with her. Steve can be very painful to be around constant because he's so earnest, always a bleeding heart. Natasha knows it can be overwhelming and can give him that cooling balm when he needs it, caring but... instead of fixing him with a stare that would make anyone well with tears, its so empathetic, she pats him and shrugs, mumbling about how shit life can be. Intentionally slightly calloused and slightly cold. Because she knows it helps. Its what she would've needed. It's not that she doesn't care for him. She just...
She shows it in a different way.
And after a while they fall into a routine. A routine that builds and builds... Bucky comes to her when he needs her, she pets him or she cases the demons away by controlling him and never abusing it, never taking advantage of his willingness to submit to her, in exhaustion and also in primal need, only ever building upon the submission and pushing him to places he thought he'd forever left. Good places. Natasha comes to him when she needs it, when she needs something that will not dissolve under a façade or double-cross. Something that is real. Something that is warm, even blazingly hot, rather than cold. Someone. When she needs someone. It works. The more they do it, smoothing out the wrinkles, the better it gets.
It builds and builds and-
Then it breaks.
It breaks when Bucky cannot push down or forget his feelings for Steve and he doesn't know what it will do to them. He openly communicates his feelings toward Natasha. And Natasha recognizes those feelings too, like she recognizes the unreal seeming but terrifyingly true and real places of Bucky's nightmares. She knows Steve is very attractive. She couldn't believe her eyes the first few times she stood in front of him. The first time she saw him topless, just in his underwear, or his skin-tight undersuit for medical checkups or because of injuries... she had to drag her eyes back to his face in a way that she couldn't remember having to truly do in a very, very long time. Not acting. Feeling.
A fiery feeling.
But, she didn't let it burn through her, she threw her interest in Steve into getting him into someone else, believing at the time that relationships don't last. Relationships are messy and getting into one with someone on her team would be a mistake. Every time. Except...
Bucky is different.
She is learning that it is different... relationships in general.
It is untrue that all relationships become failures or exploits.
And if her relationship with Bucky is different-? Different in a positive way. Being with Steve would be different too... right?
So, as Bucky re-discovers, she too unburies her own feelings toward Steve in parallel. Is this what she wants too? Yes. Okay. Then... they'll do it. Together.
Together, they invite Steve into their relationship.
Natasha is not sure what Steve will be like in the bedroom, once the threshold of establishing and getting comfortable with each other in general is crossed. She has watched that handsome jaw clench as those blue, blue eyes drag covertly over charming brunettes with pale, sparkly eyes, men and women, when he thinks no one else is watching him. Yet she has also watched those cheeks turn pink the second a woman at a bar hits on him (and it is a regular thing. Again. He's very attractive. Everyone- anyone can see.) She has watched Steve come down shaky with an adrenaline crash from missions, not understanding what was happening to him to the point of terrified clinging to the nearest stable object with frantic breaths heaving in and out of that huge chest. She has watched Steve come off of a mission still heated and angry, stomping down to the gym with injuries that should be treated but no one can make him go go medical for. He will resurface in a days time with battered knuckles and bleeding lips and fire still in his eyes, even as his body finally, finally gives out on him, allowing someone to creep in close enough to tend to his wounds. He is an exercise in juxtaposition. The ulmitate physical form and designed to be that way by the serum yet... not a perfect soldier.
So, if anything, she expects he might be a switch. Maybe even a dom, the serum might make him always hunger for control, optimizing him, the ideal soldier, or it might've preyed on that small, sickness riddled man that didn't have something to prove, not exactly, just knew what needed proving. Making him prove what he can do, how much pleasure he can inflict on a partner. Thus, dominant.
Maybe?
Possibly.
She doesn't know...
But, ultimately, she is not expecting to watch him crumble the second Bucky lays a hand on the back of his neck as they kiss for the first time (this century) after dinner. She is not expecting them both, eyes dark and wide, to turn to her with eagerness written all over their faces and body language, listening fully, when she purrs low in her throat instinctively.
Interesting.
Between the two of them, Bucky and Steve, Steve is much more affected by her sound. By Bucky's hold. By the situation at large as it unfolds.
God, just the way he moves the second she crooks her finger, on edge, almost twitchy, yet... moving through honey. Soft and malleable. Hazy. Sweet. It is beautiful.
Natasha already knows what Bucky likes, before and after she learns that Steve is submissive. So, their first time, all of them together, she has Bucky do what he likes... ordering him to crawl between her legs, as she sits reclined against the headboard, and eat her.
Ordering him to lick and savor and please her with that charming, handsome mouth.
He's very good at it.
She bites her lip and lets her eyes roll back into her head for a moment. The feeling is exquisite. Then...
She thinks of something for Steve to do. Her second submisive. All hers for the taking, looking enraptured by the show before him. Naked and hard, whining subconsciously in the back of his throat.
She has him lay against her side and use his mouth too. His mouth soft and sweet on her breasts. Not too hard, not too soft, just because she told him so.
Either way, both her subs are eager to please. Eager to worship their girl.
Bucky is wicked and lush. Charming, sharp even as he submits so beautifully. Steve is soft and sweet. Malleable and honey-like as he submits gorgeously. The same and yet different. Better together. Better for Natasha when they're together.
‘“He doesn’t know you,” Sam says to Steve. Natasha placed a bug on his collar before he met Steve at the bridge, and she’s beginning to feel a bit guilty about it. She sits beside Fury, comms in their ears, drumming her fingers on the table.
“He will,” Steve says, and suddenly Natasha understands. This is the man that Steve altered his heart for, the one he thought only the serum could love. But now Steve knows better—he knows he’s bisexual—he knows his love is real, and the man that it belongs to is undead.’
A piece inspired by the amazing fic “my heart in the still winter air” by @aosceru that filled my heart with so much joy and love.
I need help with the title of a fic. Iits a SteveBuckyNat fic, its a university fic where Bucky and Nat are dating and Steve is Bucky's bestfriend/roommate. I remember in this fic Nat says "but we're bicycle (or tricycle)" In this one I remember a mention of Steve's instagram and there was a kiss between Nat and Steve after all three of them get drunk, there's pizza too, please help
Hi there! This isn’t ringing any bells for me (unless it’s Pretty Boy with a Bird Tattoo, which is a SteveBuckyNat college AU I keep meaning to read...). When I filtered for SteveBuckyNat + “Alternate Universe - College/University”, there weren’t too many results, so you might try looking through them? Or if somebody who follows knows, feel free to shout it out!
