    Summary

    After HYDRA, Bucky's Sentinel gifts are out of control, and nothing appears capable of helping. He keeps falling into Zones, but none of the Guides that SHIELD continues bringing in are able to form even a superficial bond with him, instead ending up breaking down themselves. The only Guide capable of being around him for longer periods of time is Tony, and Bucky can't help but want, even though he knows an attempt at a bond won't end in anything but pain for the both of them. So he'll keep his distance, no matter how much he wants to get closer.

    Tony, in the meantime, longs. But he knows he's no good as a Guide, knows that Bucky deserves so much more than him. So he'll stay away, even when all he wants is to get closer.

    Summary

    Tony sucked in a sharp breath, heart pounding in his ears, and looked up at his savior.

    “Are you alright?” he asked in a tone much softer than Tony had expected, grip tightening around Tony as he pulled him further away from the street.

    In which Bucky is actually Tony's long-lost college sweetheart, and these two knuckleheads take a ridiculously long time figuring out they're still perfect for each other.

    From these prompts:
    Because new. Clintasha has Budapest. Can I have Tony & Winter Soldier have their own secret story about Budapest (or place of choice )that doesn't become known until Steve introduces Bucky to the Avengers.
    &
    Inspired by Shadow and a Dancer by the Fray. Bucky knew Tony when Tony was in College. Bucky was on a mission that lasted 7 months when he met Tony by accident and they fell in love. Buck was Tony’s first, but then he was mind wiped and Tony was heartbroken he disappeared. Now Bucky is starting to remember and Tony is wanting to give in again. But he’s in a relationship with Bruce (or someone) and its not fair. I would really prefer it not have an ending of a 3way. Tony chooses Bucky in the end.

    Summary

    Each entry is complete and exists (mostly) independent of each other.
    You can download volume one through four here
    This series is:
    - Not Team Cap friendly.
    - Has no particular order because besides having the Post-CW timeline in common, none of them are actually (intentionally) connected at the time of their posting
    - Uses headcanons some of which are mentioned in the beginning of the fic or simply tagged
    Please note:
    - I'm socially inept but I have recently started replying to comments
    Come hang out in my fort

    Summary

    Bucky has lived with the Avengers for a while now, and he's mostly settled in. During the process, he fell for Tony Stark - hard - but he can't quite bring himself to admit it to the brilliant engineer. So he just does what he can to take care of and protect him, hoping that maybe the other man will fall just as hard for him... and be the one to take their relationship to the next level. In the meantime, he's noticed that there's one member of the team that Tony seems afraid of, and he is definitely not pleased by the notion.

    Once he finds out what Wanda did to cause that fear, she might wish she'd never left Hydra.
