November prompt: Incapable of love
in the end, it survives us all
Summary:
A throwaway joke, that's all it was. Still, it doesn't take more than that to start Bucky wondering, worrying.
Rating: Gen
December prompt: Flashbacks
the longest night
Summary:
Steve Rogers is an old man, living comfortably thanks to his art, but he's lonely, missing the biggest piece of his heart after losing Bucky during World War II. All he has are letters sent long ago, drawings made even earlier than that, and his memories.

Warnings: Implied/Referenced Character Death
January prompt: I would die/kill for you
A Year of Happiness
Summary:
Joy knew she was taking a huge risk, letting a stranger into her car in the middle of a rain storm. She did, though, and it turned out to be the best decision she'd made in years. (This is a paraquel to Bucky Barnes' Year of Peace)

February prompt: Frozen/Cryo
Frostbites
Summary:
When Sam doesn't hear from Bucky for a few weeks, he isn't at all worried. At least not until he shows up at a briefing and doesn't find his partner there.
Bucky, meanwhile, is not having a great morning.

March prompt: Bad coping mechanisms
Someplace through the dark
Summary:
Steve hadn’t needed to ask to know that dying would be classed as ‘something stupid’, no more than he’d needed to ask if allowing a random man claiming to be a doctor to experiment on him would be ‘something stupid’. He hadn’t done it on purpose though. Died, that is.
Or: Steve died, yet he's still here, lingering. He's waiting for someone, and he'll wait for as long as he has to.

Warnings: Character Death, Implied/Referenced Suicide
April prompt: Domestic
Bottomless Sky Chapter 1: June
Summary:
They hadn’t run away, not really. Sure, they had slipped away in the middle of the night, and sure, they hadn’t told a soul where they were going, even though Steve had known they should have told someone. They had left notes though, for whoever might be the first person to visit either of their apartments, probably Sam; notes explaining that they’d be gone for the better part of three months, that they were fine and just needed some time away.
Okay, maybe they had run away.

May prompt: Space
Bottomless Sky Chapter 2: July
Summary:
“Do you know what this reminds me of?” Bucky’s voice is low, almost a whisper, and he doesn’t take his eyes from the sky as he speaks. The question takes Steve aback for a moment, but then he smiles because he thinks he does know.
“Summer of ’37?”
“Yeah.” There’s a small smile on Bucky’s face when he answers, and it’s an easier smile than any Steve has seen so far.

June prompt: Touch-Starved
Bottomless Sky Chapter 3: August
Summary:
Bucky doesn’t care either. How could he, when Steve’s sitting there, solid and real and pressed against him? How could he, when warmth is spreading from the places where they’re touching, even though Steve’s skin is cold to the touch? How can he, when Steve’s touch seems to be the only thing that makes him sure he’s real, that he’s truly here?

July prompt: Hostage

Bucky Barnes Season of Whump chapter 7: lost and found and lost
Summary:
Ever since he got out of the hospital, Steve has been looking for Bucky. He hasn't had any luck, only ever coming across old Hydra safehouses after the public has made it there.
Now though, something tells him that's about to change.
Rating: Explicit
Warnings: Blood and injury
September prompt: Mission Gone Wrong
To Walk Right Through Your Fires chapter 1
Summary:
It’s cruel, how quickly you get used to sharing your space, your life, with someone else, and how long it takes you to get unused to it. How quickly you get used to falling asleep to the sound of somebody else’s breathing, and how long it takes you to stop reaching for them when you’re still in that space between sleep and wakefulness. How quickly you pick up on the little things, the nervous tics they have, the things they do that they aren’t aware of themselves, and how hard it is to stop noticing that in others. How quickly you learn to distinguish the sound of their footsteps, and how much you have to focus on not listening for that.
Rating: Teen and up
Warnings: Minor character death
October prompt: Nightmares
To Walk Right Through Your Fires chapter 2
Summary:
I’m asking you not to leave, Bucky.
Sam’s words echo in his mind as Bucky stands by the bike, waiting. If he were to raise his head, if he were to turn around, he’d still be able to see the other man, standing with Joaquín not far away, their voices drifting through the night over to him. He can’t make sense of the words, can’t figure out if they’re speaking English, or any other language he knows, but as he stands there, still feeling the lingering warmth of Sam’s finger around his own, he finds he doesn’t care.
