#stucky bang 2024

[taybay14]

This week is my first ever Stucky (or any Marvel/Bucky Barnes-related) event and I'm SO EXCITED to share my art/writing with all of you. First up is this lovely piece written by SquadOfCats for my art with Steve giving Bucky a bubble bath. This fic will both make you laugh and tug right at your heartstrings. The antics Bucky gets up to are lovely to witness - especially because it means he's being selfish/doing things to get what he secretly wants, and that makes me happy because Bucky Barnes deserves nice things. Give the fic a read - you won't be disappointed <3

Fic: In the Mood to Let You Know

In the Mood to Let You Know | Steve/Bucky | Mature | 5,189 words (chapter 1/4) | No Warnings | Inspired by and with gorgeous art by: @burnin-brighter | Written for @stuckybangs Stucky Reverse Bang 2024 | Tags: AU: 1910s, AU: 1920s, Friends to Lovers, Romance, Epistolary, Artist Steve Rogers., Science Nerd Bucky, Barnes, Activism, Speakeasies, The 1918 flu pandemic, First Kiss, Implied Sexual Content, A conversation that takes eight years, Secret keeping with Bucky Barnes, 1920s New York queer culture

Summary: Bucky's never liked keeping secrets from Steve, but there are a few things he hasn't told his best friend over the years. These days? There are three. The two new ones he begins keeping in the summer of 1925, and that one massive secret he's been holding onto since 1918.

(Or: During the height of the 1918 flu outbreak in New York, a seventeen-year-old Steve spends a month indoors. Steve and Bucky write letters to pass the time and keep in communication. By the time Steve is out and about again, they've said a few things they'll never say out loud.

At least not until 1925, when Bucky can't seem to stop running into Steve in unexpected places. )

Beautiful friends! I am so, so excited to share my contribution to the @stuckybangs​! This is my first time ever participating in a bang--very much a challenge, but a really fun one. I had a great time collaborating with the fabulous @kahey2804​, who wrote the prompt that inspired this story and who created the gorgeous piece of art above that started it all! Also want to say a huge thank you to all the mods, @buckyismybicycle​, @mxaether​, and @sparkagrace​, for doing all the hard work of organizing the event and keeping us all in line. And last but never least, my beloved beta Kenaz, who keeps me honest--the best cheerleader a writer could ever have.

I do so hope you all enjoy this fluffy, slightly angsty little tale of found family and second chances, of a fresh-out-of-the-ice Steve finding his path in this new century, and of a grumpy but good-natured Bucky learning to trust again. First two chapters will post this weekend, and then once every two weeks. Thank you for reading! <3

Bucky Barnes had it all—grease under his fingernails, dog fur behind the cushions of his couch, a cozy place to call his own. The house, the truck, the dogs, the works. A ride-or-die, close-knit community. A patch of land he could wander. A mountain view to inspire him. After six tours of duty and nine months in captivity, Bucky knew how bad things could get, so he didn't dare ask for anything else. Especially not someone to hold.

Until a tall, blond super-soldier crash-landed into his quiet life and threatened to make all his dreams come true.

For now.

Til the End of the Line

Written for the Stucky Reverse Bang 2024 hosted by @stuckybangs

Based off the amazing artwork by Taybay14 / @taybay14 (coming in Chapter 5!)

Summary: Back home after their first tour, the Avengers are getting ready to record their second album - they just have to write it first. Lead singer, Bucky Barnes, struggles to write a song that's not about his childhood best friend, the drummer of the band, Steve Rogers. The problem is, Steve has no idea how Bucky feels about him. When another childhood friend starts leaning on Steve, Bucky must decide if it's time to let his crush go, or to finally be brave and let Steve know how he feels.

my stucky bang 2024 fic is up!

hold my body (hold my breath)

“You were born in a storm. On a rocking boat, too. Maybe that’s where all this started,” his ma had said, kissing his head and rocking him in her arms. “Demanded to come into the world in an in-between place. Couldn’t wait to get to America,” she joked. Steve didn’t know what that meant, but he did know that even imagining a boat out there, getting tossed by waves, made him feel ill enough that even looking at the rain made him retch weakly. His ma tutted, and pressed a hand to his forehead.

--

Steve has always had an all-consuming fear of water, and nearly drowning twice only made it worse. One day, after just turning on a tap sends him spiraling, he has to consider what his breaking point is.

🌊🌊🌊

Huge thank you to my artist partner @alwaysabrighterdarkness for their art for not only inspirating the fic but also helping me brainstorm the initial idea ❤️and also thank you for your patience while real life got extremely in the way 😭

An additional thank you to @sparkagrace, for betaing the damn thing, but also being always encouraging even when I was genuinely convinced I was never gonna write a single word ever again. Whatever I did to deserve you is not enough!

Summary:

When Bucky finally has some time off work, he books a flight to DC to visit his best friend and old college roommate, Sam. While there, Bucky decides that he needs to blow off some steam, and a Grindr hookup is exactly the thing that will scratch that itch. When the hottest guy on the planet starts sexting him, Bucky can't believe his luck. But the universe has more in store for Bucky than he ever could have dreamed, and with the luck that he's about to have, maybe he should buy a lottery ticket, because it feels like all of his dreams are coming true.

Thanks to the awesome mods at @stuckybangs for organizing an amazing event! Also thanks to my collaborator and artist, MxAether for inspiring me with their incredible art!

Chapter Eight is now up!

The Soldier’s understanding of the world begins to unravel after he completes a mission and finds a helpless and shivering kitten. Unable to leave, knowing the frail thing will die in the elements, the Soldier makes a choice...

Overwhelmed and now hiding from his handler's, things only get more complicated when he lays eyes on a picture of a familiar blonde face. . .

The Soldier can not risk contact, capture, and the inevitable return to Hydra and captivity would bring. He may remember Steve Rogers, but he also remembers Captain America. Similarly enhanced, the Captain would have the advantage, the Soldier’s movement would be limited with the kitten’s safety to consider.

He’ll seek out Steve Rogers, who seems to feature in nearly every memory with Bucky, but he’ll be cautious. Can hopefully glean from the exposure more about the time before Bucky – before he – was presumed dead in a war. From before Steve’s Bucky became Hydra’s, time stuttering by till the Soldier was born.

Story features art by @taybay14 ❤️!

[mandyyvibes]

Steve still felt a little guilty that Bucky was willing to do all that for him. Did he really deserve his unconditional loyalty? He could’ve picked anyone at school to be best friends with, but he picked him, and Steve would never know how he got so lucky. The thought of running away was comforting, anyway, even if maybe they couldn’t actually leave for a while. Days, weeks, months.

In which Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes grow up together under circumstances that no child should have to face, and Bucky paints Steve daydreams of a better life together, if only they could run far enough.

For an even better look at @alwaysabrighterdarkness amazing artwork, view it on ao3! Endless thanks to the mods of @stuckybangs for putting on this awesome event, this has been so much fun to participate in.

Human Lens (Stucky Big Bang 2024) - 8/?

@taybay14's art of photographer!Bucky

Torn from his old life and dumped unceremoniously in the 21st century, and then having to face an alien attack just months after coming out of the ice, Steve Rogers is struggling to come to terms with everything he's lost and isn't sure the title of Captain America is one he feels 100% comfortable with anymore. Alone, deeply lonely and desperate for anything to help him feel like his old self again, he stumbles across the work of fellow veteran and photographer Bucky Barnes, who specialises in helping wounded soldiers reclaim their bodily autonomy and sense of self after injury in combat.

When he asks Bucky to take his own photograph, he finds the connection he's been looking for the entire time. And, as it just so happens, Bucky finds exactly the same thing.

___________

This was written for the Stucky Big Bang 2024 @stuckybangs and inspired by the gorgeous art of photographer Bucky by @taybay14 which will be embedded in the first chapter shortly and is also included here.

It's currently incomplete, but will be posted weekly - six chapters have been written so far, and I can't wait to share with you all the story of self-discovery, healing from trauma, and finding love in unexpected places that this version of Steve and Bucky go on.

Pairing: James "Bucky" Barnes/Steve Rogers

Summary: Steve has one magical night with his perfect dream man: a strong and silent beefcake who submits to him beautifully during a group scene at a local club. But the guy vanishes in a rush as soon as they're done. Wistful, Steve thinks he will never see him again.

It's less magical when the guy starts stalking him, following him around, lurking in weird places, and bringing him some truly strange gifts.

Turns out, the Winter Soldier is pretty bad at modern romance, and he’s in desperate need of another session with his new favorite dom.

Title: Secret but Not Safe

Author: @buckybarnesdeservestobehappy

Artist: @sofreakinmanyfandoms

Rating: Explicit

Archive Warning: No archive warnings apply

Tags: Canon-Divergent, Politics AU, First Son Bucky Barnes, Secret Service Agent Steve Rogers, Retired Captain America Steve Rogers, Age Gap, Politics AU, Secret Relationship, Pining, Shrunkyclunks, Enemies to Lovers Summary: Bucky Barnes is tired of living in the public eye. The son of the President of the United States and former Vice President, he’s used to being used for his connections, looks, and money. Since the press and tabloids only talk about his arrogant, sarcastic façade, it’s easy to hide his loneliness, pain, and insecurity from everyone around him. It’s not until a chance encounter with Steve Rogers, former superhero and current Secret Service agent, that he decides he’s done with being alone. Using all his bravado, he propositions Steve and can’t hide his smugness when Steve agrees to a secret affair. For once, Bucky’s met his match, but that doesn’t mean he won’t use all his brashness to pretend he’s the one in control.

“Is that what you do with non-magical plants?” Steve was watching the process with avid curiosity. “Treat them like they’re your own?” Once again, Bucky was surprised by Steve’s astute observation. Pretty and smart and kind was a deadly combination.  “I do, yes. They—” A stray tendril tried to wrap around Steve’s pinky finger, like a toddler clinging. Bucky swept it back into place. “When I do it right, I can feel them.”

for the fic WIP game, "lost"

You're in luck, this appears twice - here's the first one:

Steve forced himself to meet New Guy’s eyes as he reclaimed the bag, and saw a look of lost confusion instead of the mockery he expected. Time for another apology. “Sorry, I’m used to people treating me like a kid because …” his voice trailed off as he gestured vaguely along his torso.

The art of shadowboxing

Written for the Stucky Reverse Bang 2024 @stuckybangs and inspired by @burnin-brighter's gorgeous art!

E | no archive warnings | tags: AU - 1920s, Reluctant Boxer Bucky Barnes, Union Leader Steve Rogers, Pre-serum Steve & Bucky, Speakeasies (because 1920s), Gangsters, Bodyguard situations (because of all the gangsters), Childhood Friends to Lovers

In 1918, Bucky is forced to flee New York with his family. In 1923, he returns as a prize fighter, determined to send money to his sisters and stay far away from the gang violence that destroyed their home. And then Steve Rogers shows up. These days, Bucky’s childhood pal isn’t facing down neighborhood bullies. He’s taking on every factory owner in the Garment District—and every gangster they hire to intimidate union members.  By joining the fray as Steve’s bodyguard, Bucky can finally stand up to the mobsters who took so much from him. And if that means spending a whole lot of time by Steve’s side…well, that’s just an added bonus.

A Game for Two by dontcallmebree with Art by einahpets

Written for Stucky Reverse Bang 2024 @stuckybangs Major Tags: Canon Compliant (or is it?), Angst and Fluff, Not EG Compliant @steverogersbingo B4 Sparring/Training @stuckybingo G1 Legacy

Summary: Steve will never forget the itch under his skin, the need to peel the world back until it finally felt right. He knows he would have gotten it then, would’ve finally latched his teeth around this amorphous, unnamable thing that had been haunting him if it weren’t for the Winter Soldier. If it weren’t for Bucky. And ain’t that a trip and a half—if not for Bucky. Story of his fucking life. The hands of fate are familiar, loving, and too cruel by half.

Inspired by @einahpets-art’s gorgeous art, a peek into the ways Steve and Bucky’s paths are intertwined far beyond schoolyard and battlefield. Read now and see the full art on AO3!
