Waiting [Stucky]

Fic written for seraph001001 for Fandom Trumps Hate 2022.

Steve doesn't know who his soulmate is. He doesn't know if he will ever find his soulmate. Maybe he needs to look closer to home...

Bucky knows who his soulmate is. He also knows they will never be together. Clearly the universe made a mistake... Or did it?

I've come to the conclusion that I am not coming back here for sure. Aside from posting some final things.

I won't be checking messages here anymore at all after December, so if you want an alternative way of contacting me, please reach out for that before then.

Also I know people probably have good intentions but please:

do not message other blogs about me

do not speak on my behalf

[thedamageofherdays]

Here, have an artwork of Cap!

Also he’s wondering if you’re interested in some coffee since he’s having some right now.

This is also an attempt on using a different direction in shading my future artworks. If this is preferred then this is what I’ll use moving forward.

EVANSTAN WEEK 2023 INTEREST CHECK

We as mods of Evanstan-Daily are very excited to announce we want to organise another Evanstan Week. This event was previously organised by @evanstanweek who is kindly allowing us to take over.

To make sure people are excited, available, and can have some input to ensure we organise the best event possible we are running an interest check first.

It's just a few questions and you can find and answer them all here:

Rules and an F.A.Q. will be posted on our blog soon! This interest check is open until November 30th.

If you want to help us out even more, you can also reblog this post so we can spread the word!

Much love,

The Evanstan Daily Mods

[thedamageofherdays]

Hi! 🥰 I saw the post about Evanstan Week and wondered if you have an update? xx

Hi Nonnie,

Thank you for asking. We wanted to post an update this week but pretty much all of us have gotten ill which has made it a bit hard to write a good post with all the details we wanna include.

We will make a proper post soon but we can say that we will be hosting @evanstanweek on this blog (the @evanstan-daily blog).

Full information will be shared (hopefully) soon. As well as an interest check. We wanna make sure that when we organise it we choose a week where people actually have time to make and share things and we wanna make sure enough people know and are interested.

Thanks for asking 💖💖

xoxo Mod Piper

THE COZY CORNER is a small Discord Community for writers, artists, and fannish people. We do weekly writing sprints, engage in supportive conversation, and have the opportunity to share our works.

This server is co-modded by me (Seashell) and Damage (@thedamageofherdays). We welcome people from all walks of life, all parts of fandom and almost every age. All we ask is that you are 18+ before joining.

If you want to join please DM me (@seashell-x) for the invite link. We'll be happy to have you there and you are not required to be active. Lurking is more than fine 🖤

[thedamageofherdays]

Will there be a next round of Evanstan Week?

Hi!

I (thedamageofherdays) am in talks with the mods of another blog (@evanstan-daily) to either let them take over or co-run the event. Once we know more we will post an update here and on their blog.

This update will contain things like an interest check, on which blog the event will be run, and whether I remain involved or not. So keep an eye out for that!

We are hoping to have things sorted soon!

<3

I wish I was more confident and didn't care so much and wasn't so sensitive but aahh

[thedamageofherdays]

Nothing prepared me for how incredibly lonely the start of this school year would be. I switched unis and had to start over without any friends and I had to leave fandom behind because people felt the need to ruin it. And it's been so damn isolating and lonely. It's... I can't even describe it. I know I took the right steps to protect myself but it's one of the hardest times in my life after already going through extremely hard and isolating things.

I wouldn't wish the way I've been feeling these last few months on anyone. Not even on the group of people who ruined fandom for me. The loneliness is killing me.

The stuff I promised to create will be created and posted before the end of the year. I promise.

But it might take me a bit. I'm really struggling at the moment. The things I experienced were actually very traumatising and it's taken more time than I thought to recover from this. Aside from that I am also a full time student and disabled so it's a lot.

I've not been well recently. Very lonely. Missing friends. I hope to be okay again soon. If i promised to make something (either for an event or an auction or something else) it will get done though. I will work hard for that.

Love, Damage

The list is by now means comprehensive but one where I hope people find fics they enjoy! I had to seriously narrow it down because it was too long haha xoxo Piper

I Can't Do Everything (But I'll Do Anything For You) by musette22 @musette22 [Explicit, 24,578 words, Meet-Cute, Rockstar Bucky Barnes, Strangers to Lovers]

Steve Rogers cares about a lot of things, but dating isn’t one of them – much to his fellow Avengers’ bemusement. It’s just never been very high on his list of priorities, falling somewhere behind his work, his friends, his hobbies, and that excellent pepperoni pizza from Vinnie’s on Flatbush Ave.

That is until one night, Natasha drags Steve out to a charity music concert by some hotshot singer that Steve has never actually heard of (which would surprise exactly no one, seeing as Steve is still partial to his records and his radio plays). And as soon as Steve lays eyes on Grammy-award winning musician and international heartthrob James Barnes for the very first time, suddenly he wonders if maybe dating wouldn’t be so bad after all. Dating James Barnes, specifically, that is. The question is just: how does one go about that? Especially one like Steve, who’s never wooed anybody in his century-long life, let alone a man. Let alone a man with long, dark hair, tattoos all over his arms, and a fanbase that rivals Steve’s own.

It’s not like he can just go up to him and say something like, "You and me babe, how about it?"

A Little Sparkle by roe87 @jro616 [Teen and Up, 7,152 words, Meet-Cute, Shy Steve Rogers, Awkward Flirting, Blind Date]

"What about that guy in accounting?" Natasha mused. "Billy, Buddy, or…?"

"Bucky," Steve said, knowing who she meant. "Lip piercing, right?"

"Yeah! He's cute."

"Yeah," Steve agreed hesitantly, then added, "but I'm not ready for that."

- AU where Bucky works in the S.H.I.E.L.D. accounting department and meets Captain America.

Group Projects Suck by youngavengerfeels [Teen and Up, 3,832 words, College/University, Identity Porn, Getting Together]

Bucky gets paired with a guy who never shows up to class for a group presentation.

Cheek to Cheek by liloau @alpineandbucky [Teen and Up, 10,748 words, Anxiety, Hair Stylist Bucky Barnes, Getting Together]

Steve can’t remember a time when someone’s touch had been more than perfunctory. A hand to his arm, moving him into the correct position. An arm around his shoulders, blocking him from a hit. He can’t remember the last time that someone touched him for the sake of the contact; because Steve deserved gentle things. In a big, bright, lonely new world, Steve finds solace in a hair salon.

Chef's Kiss by Kalee60 @kalee60 [Teen and Up, 8,732 words, Chef Bucky Barnes, Christmas Fluff, First Kiss]

Bucky Barnes was expecting a quiet Christmas. With a cancelled flight home and time off from his demanding job, his most exciting immediate plans involved an eggnog binge with his best friend Darcy.

But when Captain America stumbles into the Stark kitchens, bruised, battered and seemingly in need of company, what can Bucky do but help turn his Christmas around. And in the process, maybe find a little Christmas miracle for himself…

Whole In Your Frame by AidaRonan [Explicit, 15,583 words, Tenderness, Science Nerd Bucky Barnes, Fat Bucky Barnes, Touch-Starved Steve Rogers]

When Fury tells Steve Rogers someone wants to study his blood, Steve is adamant about it being a bad idea. Until Bucky explains his true intentions. Now all that's left is to get to know Bucky Barnes and decide if he can trust him.

Brooklyn Buddies by daisymondays [Teen and Up, 13,365 words, Meet-Cute, Friends to Lovers, Dogs, Getting Together, Fluff]

Steve Rogers goes to Brooklyn Buddies Shelter for a dog and ends up with a boyfriend. He's not too disappointed.

Professional Pride by galwednesday [Teen and Up, 700 words, Pride, Meet-Cute, Tattoo Artist Bucky Barnes]

Bucky is having a very good day, until he turns around and finds himself face-to-face with Captain America.

“Oh shit,” he blurts before he can stop himself, and Captain America blinks at him. “Hey, hi, I didn’t expect to see you here.” Here, at New York’s Pride parade, surrounded by thousands of happy screaming people wearing rainbows and sometimes not much else. What is he doing here? Is he on guard duty or something? Was he just on a mission and happened to be passing by on his way back?

He’s in uniform but with the cowl loose around his neck, so when he rubs the back of his head it fluffs up his matted hair. “I, uh. I saw one of your–temporary tattoos?” Captain fucking America says, like it’s a question.

is it a cry i hear (from the deep wood) by steviesunrises @steviesunrises [Mature, 59,024 words, Witch Bucky Barnes, Mutual Pining, Angst with a Happy Ending, Mental Health, Gardening]

When Steve wakes up in a body that isn’t his and in a city he does not know, he finds refuge in the role of Captain America and the endless grind of missions. He spends nearly every night on the rooftop of the tower, smoking useless cigarettes and wanting to go home. Enter Bucky Barnes, a garden witch with a quiet life tasked with creating a rooftop garden for Stark Industries. As long as he ignores the yearning for something unnamed, he’s content. Steve is just another stranger until he shows up one afternoon, covered in blood and bruises, and Bucky can’t help but magick his wounds away. Sometimes, fate has a funny habit of drawing the right people together. Or, how two people discover how real homes are built.

Pod Bless America by Deisderium [Teen and Up, 6,131 words, Meet-Awkward, Podficcer Steve Rogers, Writer Bucky Barnes, Fandom]

Bucky can't believe his favorite podficcer recorded his newest fanfic AU of the show Commandos. He's even more surprised when the customer who busts him listening to fic while he's working in the office supply store turns out to be that podficcer. * The guy—maybe bi_shield?—took his phone, looked down at the screen, and smiled. "Yeah, that one's mine," he said with no evidence of embarrassment. "It was a good one." He handed the phone back to Bucky. "I wrote it," Bucky croaked.

Finding Home by grandmacore @thedamageofherdays [Teen and Up, 2,773 words, Strangers to Lovers, Bed Sharing, Parent Steve Rogers, Getting Together]

After he is caught in a terrible rainstorm while hiking, Bucky is glad to find shelter at the cottage Steve shares with his daughter and his dog. Bucky ends up finding so much more than just a safe place to spend the night.

Brought to Brightness by eyres [Teen and Up, 10,748 words, Veteran Bucky Barnes, Catfishing, Romance]

Army veteran Bucky Barnes has fallen in love with Steve, a guy he met online a few months after he returned from Afghanistan. Only problem is, he doesn't know Steve's last name or even what he looks like. When his sister helps him send his story into MTV's Catfish, he's hoping they can help him meet Steve or, at least, let him move on with his life if Steve isn't real. Little does he know, Steve and Captain America have more in common than just a first name.
