“I’m going to steal the Declaration of Independence,” Steve said.
In which Steve is the passionate, disgraced historian, Peggy is the beautiful archivist, Bucky is the long-suffering best friend, and, as always, they turn up on Sam Wilson’s doorstep.

Summary:
“I’m Loki, your new assistant,” the man says as he rises and brushes his hands over the front of his slacks. Steve can feel the frown threatening to creep across his features and tries to stop it. Judging by the look on Loki’s face, he is only partially successful. “I have been briefed on your unique situation and SHIELD has provided me with a detailed description of my job duties and responsibilities.” Loki sits in one of the guest chairs and continues. “To better prepare myself for this assignment I may have accessed some files that were not strictly within my clearance level-” “You hacked my files?” Steve asks somewhere between impressed and irritated.

Summary: In 2014, James Barnes is an old man, bitter with regret over his failure to save Steve’s life during the War. Sure, he lived a long life, but he never stopped wishing things had ended differently.
On the anniversary of Captain America’s death, an old acquaintance shows up with a once-in-a-lifetime chance for James to make things right and save Steve: travel back in time to change his own history.
James goes back to 1943 and has to relive the events of the War as Bucky Barnes, Howling Commando and right-hand-man to Captain America – all the while trying to change events in just the right way to fix the future. But time is counting down to a mission on a train in the mountains …

Summary:Bucky hasn’t spoken to anyone in 500 years. They don’t see him, pass through him, like he isn’t even there, and he supposes he isn’t. He’s a door closing of its own accord, a cold spot by the fireplace; he’s a ghost, stuck within the castle grounds, and he’s made his peace with that.Steve knows everything about the castle. He’s spent his entire life studying it, and now he gets to work in it, imparting his knowledge on the visitors who pass through every day.When Steve talks to Bucky, the first person in 500 years, Bucky knows that Steve is special. He just can’t imagine how special he truly is, and how Steve might be the key to helping him move on, in one way or another

After failing to make the 2016 team and still dealing with the loss of his mother right after, Steve is resolute that they are going to make the 2020 team. After the last qualifying match, and an almost confession, Bucky unexpectedly takes a spot on Team Russia, leaving Steve on Team USA to train halfway across the world with little explanation. Steve is hurt and confused but determined to do well at the Olympics and get to the bottom of what’s going on with Bucky.

Summary:
Ever since Steve could remember, he always wanted to do what was right. So orphaned young and alone, Hydra offered him a chance to be part of something more, to help free the world, to save it.
Steve took it without question.
Years later, he found himself at war with the Americans and the notorious Soldier, slowly coming to the realisation that things were not what they seemed to be at all. But time had never been kind - least of all to Steve - and it was way too late for regrets.
(Or the AU where Steve was Hydra but somehow ended up becoming a hero anyway, because some things were just inevitable)

Summary:
Following the attack on the Triskelion, the Asset is left injured, confused, and without guidance. Directionless and with no superior to give it orders, it must establish its own protocols. It assigns itself a new mission: gather intel on everything and anything regarding Captain America and Hydra, stay under the radar, and survive. Simple. Except its not. ⭑ ⭑ ⍟ ⭑ ⭑ Featuring a confused and questioning Bucky Barnes who doesn’t know how to handle his newfound freedom, a pining Steve Rogers who doesn’t know how to handle feelings, and the journey of a punk and a jerk as together they rediscover themselves, each other, and what it means to be in love.
Summary: After Bucky falls from the train and is recaptured by Hydra, they don’t replace his arm with a cybernetic prosthetic. Instead, Zola uses Bucky as a human guinea pig for his experimentation with a strange, black alien substance. The bond between soldier and symbiote becomes stronger than Zola could have ever imagined. Together, Bucky and Venom form the perfect killing machine, the black fist of Hydra, spending decades carrying out assassinations and waging war on Hydra’s enemies. In between missions, Hydra wipes Bucky and returns him to cryo, unaware that Venom is keeping all of Bucky’s memories—especially those about Steve Rogers—safe for him and is planning their escape. Somehow, someday, Venom will get them back to Steve, and together, they will make Hydra pay.
The message was vague on details, but the urgency in Wade’s voice told Steve it was serious, and that he should come alone.
“Help me, Steve Rogers,” he pleaded. “You’re my only hope.”
Steve had to admit that that got to him.
(It would be three months before Steve would see Star Wars for the first time. Needless to say, he was not amused when he did.)
… In which two supersoldiers form a very special bond across several time zones, many states, and more all-you-can-eat breakfast than anyone should ever eat in their life.
Author’s note: this idea was born shortly after the first Deadpool film, and has been parked in my imagination station ever since. I’m so grateful that I finally got the chance to write it, and I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it!

Summary:
Bucky Barnes has been an escort since college. It’s easy money, he’s good at it, and most importantly he likes it. He’s even made enough to afford rent on a brand-new, swanky apartment in Manhattan. Was he expecting to move in next door to Captain America himself? No, not really. But Bucky is nothing if not adaptable. And besides, the Captain is cute. It’s just too bad that Bucky refuses to mix business with pleasure.Steve’s just looking for a little space to breathe when he moves out of the tower and into a new apartment. Somewhere to be himself apart from the Avengers. A chance to be Steve Rogers, not Captain America. And hey, the ridiculously attractive next-door neighbor is just a bonus.It doesn’t take the universe long at all to throw a wrench in their plans. Little do the two of them know they’re only one drunken meeting away from the relationship of a lifetime.
@lisamott9 and I are pleased to announce that our collaboration for @cabigbang is complete and posted in its entirety. For those waiting to binge, binge away.
It was a real pleasure working with her on this fic. I can’t say enough good things about her and her art. There are nine chapters and there is a piece of art of each chapter. I am amazed and consider myself really lucky that she created that much art for what is essentially my first time participating in CapBB.
If the premise interests you, please check it out. Be mindful of the warnings, that’s all I ask of you.

Summary: Steve Rogers makes a lucrative living as an escort for some of the wealthy elite in the Los Angeles area. He believes in love and sex for hire. All that changes when he meets James Buchanan “Bucky” Barnes, the son of a long-standing California senator, and begins a heated affair with the man.
Rejoice (And Fall to Your Knees) Captain America Steve/Bucky Explicit
Bucky and Steve have known each other all their lives, but since Steve left the Army, they haven’t kept in touch much. Mostly because Bucky has no idea how to process the fact that Steve decided to become a priest, and what little he and Steve have talked has done nothing to make it clear to him.
After being hurt and captured on a mission, months of torture made Bucky decide that he wasn’t going to die without telling Steve how he felt about him. He knows nothing will change, and maybe it’s unfair to put it on Steve’s shoulders, but his profession means he has to deal with confessions all the time.
But how things are away from Steve are different from how things are being with Steve. And being with Steve is really all that Bucky wants.

Summary:“Do you want to go somewhere more… private?” The blond man, after a long silence, had agreed. “My room is just up the block,” he said, jerking his head at the bar’s door. * In 1937, Steve Rogers joins the army, and by 1945, he’s back in Brooklyn, dishonorable discharge in hand and nothing to show for years in the Pacific. In 1947, a seventeen year old Bucky Barnes meets Steve Rogers in a Brooklyn gay bar, and Steve Rogers finally comes home.

Summery: Steve Rogers died saving the universe and bringing back the dusted, leaving Bucky behind to mourn and self-destruct. Despite the efforts of the team to help him heal, he enters a downward spiral of hurt and despair that effects everyone around him.
Six months later, when things finally seem to be getting better, a visitor arrives that throws his still-fragile world sideways, and maybe, just possibly, gives him hope that not all is what it seems.
Summary: “In April of 2014, two very important things happen: The Winter Soldier is prepped for a mission as part of Project Insight which never ends up happening, and Steve Rogers finds out his mother is dying. In October of 2018, Bucky Barnes and Steve Rogers meet in the Sculpture Garden at UCLA. Bucky has spent the ensuing years building a life for himself, learning that he likes to study in the sunshine and build friendships with people who just think of him as ‘that nice guy who’s really smart’, not what he used to be. Steve has tried to make it in Brooklyn, but everything reminds him of Sarah. He needs a change of scenery, and following his childhood best friend Sam Wilson over to California seems to be the way to do it.”

SUMMARY:
It’s 2014. Captain America has been out of the ice for three years and is trudging along, saving the world and trying to get used to living in the future. Steve thinks he knows how the rest of his life is going to pan out – a life of duty, which he chose when he signed up to be Erskine’s science experiment. But then, he meets Bucky Barnes: the out-of-this-world-gorgeous mechanic and war vet, who turns Steve’s life upside down and makes him question everything he thought he knew. Slowly, Steve comes to realize there is more to life than duty and punching Nazis. Just one problem though: how on earth does a 96-year-old virgin who only just realized he may not be entirely straight make the transition from crush to relationship? Cue healthy amounts of self-doubt, awkward flirting, pretty blushing, existential crises, emotional growth, and maybe, possibly, a sexual awakening.
