[There you are,] Steve says in Bucky’s mind, his mouth not moving but his eyes saying it all as they trail down Bucky’s body.
Being face to face with him like this, bearing the weight of those eyes, feeling the presence of Steve inside of his mind, it all feels like too much. He feels like he’s being tested, appraised. Like Steve wants something from him, but he doesn’t know what it is.
[You wish to know what I am, sweet one?] he asks, that low rumble making Bucky’s breath hitch, his eyes flutter.

Fanfic Rec #125 Bucky Barnes/Steve Rogers (Marvel) part 2
It's Been A Long Season Through by thiccbuckybarnes
Bucky Barnes is in desperate need of a change in scenery, which is why he makes the foolhardy decision to quit his job, leave his asshole of a fiance, pack up his life, and move to his grandfather’s old farm all within a single day.
He expects confusion, hardship, and maybe even failure. But love? He wasn’t expecting that.

Or, a Stucky Stardew Valley AU that nobody but me wanted and that’s ok.
perfectly right wrong number by melonbutterfly
It all starts because Steve is too dumb to handle his smartphone.
A wrong number AU in which Bucky Barnes doesn't enter Steve's life (meaning: Bucky wasn't born until the eighties, but Steve is still Captain America) until Steve accidentally dials the wrong number. Wherein there is a lot of texting, some advice via Natasha and Darcy, a bit of pining, and a first date in an amusement park. Oh, and on top of being a disabled veteran, Bucky is a professional catwalker. Literally.
on the mantle
A few months into their relationship, Bucky finally tells his family about Steve's, well, job.
Aforementioned teeny tiny sequel to perfectly right wrong number.
Come To Morning by orphan_account
He figured it was natural, kind of—well, not natural, but he and Steve spent a lot of time together, and Steve didn’t get so much attention from girls, which was a crying shame because he was a good guy and a girl could do a lot worse. But it meant maybe Steve got a bit confused, because sometimes he would look at Bucky with this look. This bright, astonished look, like he was seeing something so good he couldn’t quite believe it was real. It made Bucky squirm inside, a little.

S.H.I.E.L.D Agent Bucky Barnes is captured on a mission and meets Commander Steve Rogers, the erstwhile Captain America.
Shrunkyclunks refers to Captain America Steve with a modern Bucky Barnes. Below are my Top 5 Favorites:
“I just met you (and this is crazy)” (M, 41k) by littlesystems
After Steve gets outed by a grainy cell phone picture, it takes the media less than 24 hours to discover Captain America’s secret relationship with James Barnes: classical musician, teen heartthrob, and son of a former president.
The only problem? Steve has never met James Barnes in his life.
+ Tabloids latch onto a famous lookalike, and it works out perfectly for everyone. (The sequel is unfinished but worth reading!)

“Stop Trolling Me!” (T, 20k) by GoodbyeBlues
When the dust had settled and James was collecting his $10 winnings to the congratulations of the other Bingo patrons, Steve not included, Steve vowed that next week he would not be pulled into the sexy vortex of this Bingo playing bad boy.
If Steve never saw James, darling of the Bingo hall, Russian sex God, and ruthless troll collector again, he would be fine.
Just fine.
...
A.K.A Oblivious Steve is very bad at having an arch-enemy. (Particularly because he confuses 'dating' with 'acts of war.')
+ Captain America plays bingo and thirsts

“As You Seep On In And Keep Me Down” (E, 8k) by thiccbuckybarnes
Bucky Barnes is a man of many names.
But first and foremost, he’s an ass man. He likes his guys small, able to be bent in half when he fucks them. He likes being bigger, being in control, likes crowding little twinks up and wrecking them so thoroughly they cry.
But he makes the wrong judgement when he first sees Steve in a bar; Steve’s all height, wide shoulders and muscle, clearly wouldn’t want the things that Bucky wants. It isn’t until he sees Steve shrink up from rejection, sees how pretty his cheeks look in an embarrassed flush, that he realizes that Steve is everything he wants.
It’s a good thing, too, when Steve gives him a second chance because if he hadn’t, Bucky would have missed out on the meal of his life.
+ “Steve’s eyes are closed, mouth hung open, and he looks like he’s in a suspended orgasm” <--- this is That Fic

“Life of the Party” (E, 21k) by AggressiveWhenStartled
“You know, kids,” Steve heard from the backyard, “one of the most common threats a superhero has to face is inside an active volcano! We’re going to have to work on your evasion skills, so for the next five minutes, the floor is lava!” This was met by a sudden spike in both volume and pitch from the small children as they scrambled onto every raised surface they could find and immediately launched themselves right back off.
“I’ve never seen actual lava in my entire life,” Steve said, vaguely offended.
“You got a superhero impersonator for The Falcon’s niece’s birthday party,” Sam said, incredulous. “The Falcon, who is an actual superhero.”
+ Steve is completely unprepared to deal with kids, so it’s a good thing Bucky’s there to help out

“bucky barnes: tea employee extraordinaire” (M, 28k) by deceptivesoldier
When Bucky Barnes decided to take a job with the TSA working nights at baggage claim, he fully anticipated his job to consist of answering dumb questions (“The luggage is behind you, sir”) and sitting on his uncomfortable chair while keeping an eye out for any suspicious behavior.
To his aggravation, however, once it was revealed that Captain America had arrived from the 1940s through ice-travel, Bucky’s routine starts to include “Villain Babysitter”, as wannabe villains begin coming through the airport in hopes of destroying Cap. As a point of professional pride, Bucky takes it upon himself to keep them from leaving the airport.
At least until someone above his pay grade can come by and deal with them.
He did not expect that someone to be Steve Rogers himself.
Steve, who for some reason, likes coming to the airport. Given that the man is a national treasure, from his smooth mouth to his patriotic ass, who is Bucky to argue?
+ Work is never dull when you have a cute boy that visits
The longer he stays here, the less he wants to leave.
He enjoys being spoiled with human delicacies, and being near Bucky. Bucky stirs something in him; something more than just hunger, something deep and electrifying.
He wants to find out what it is.

The latest beefy sub Steve art is fucking phenomenal! But if I’m honest about what sent me over the edge…it’s the placement of the watermark! You had me at the fucking watermark!
did i put a brand tattoo on Steve's ass? 😈
... it was just the most logical spot to place my signature, wasn't it? 😇
thank you!!! 😘

ICYMI: here's the art for @thiccbuckybarnesfic absolutely stunning bottom!Steve story 😍
All work and no play? Kick back and read about Stucky playing videogames. Below are my Top 5 Favorite stories:
“How Buzzfeed Helped Bucky Barnes Get A Boyfriend” (M, 40k) by nickel710
In which Bucky Barnes, Iraq war veteran and bicycle enthusiast, streams Overwatch on the side for fun under the handle President15, and one day his friend-of-a-friend FalconKnight introduces a new player to the crew, THECapRogers. It would be totally absurd for the actual Captain America to hang out in his stream and argue about baseball, right? ...right?
+ Shrunkyclunks. Overwatch and retro Nintendo. Bucky gets to be the more famous one for a while and Steve loves it

Based off this Reddit post:
I gave a BJ to my friend for 1 million bells in Animal Crossing yesterday.
It's been a bit awkward between us since, but I have no regrets. My island looks so fancy now.
+ Modern AU. Animal Crossing. Steve is loaded with game-currency and Bucky sees an opportunity for a mutually beneficial exchange

“Matchmaking” (M, 34k) by Nori
“Look, that was not my fault,” says a deep voice, crackling over the mic. Bucky jumps and clutches at his chest, heart pounding.
“Holy shit, you’re using the in game chat?” Bucky croaks. No one uses Destiny’s in game chat.
+ Shrunkyclunks. Destiny. Bucky carries a stranger through the game and Steve gets inspired to draw again

Clint overhears something he probably shouldn't.

“Sucker” (E, 1k) by orphan_account
"Contrary to popular belief, being born in the twenties doesn't make him bad with technology. (Although it does make him bad with the man who makes this particular kind of technology.) He has a Stark phone, and he can actually use it for more than calling a takeout place, and hanging up on them six times ('Jesus, Steve, just give me the phone already, wouldya?'), such as, playing the in vogue games. Which is how he found this stupid fucking game. It's easy, of course it's easy, until it isn't. It's fine, until he has levels where it takes concentrated levels of planning. Because then he starts thinking."
+ Post WS. Candy Crush. Bucky is jealous of Tony and plays Candy Crush to distract himself. Steve shows him there’s nothing to be jealous of
