Summary
Bucky hasn't had an easy time starting a new life after Hydra. He's a mess of a human who barely functions on a good day. Today was not a 'good day.' He finds himself at the edge of a mental break, but falling apart would have to wait for another time.
He's called to duty by Steve Rodgers when he finds out Manhattan is under attack by an unknown enemy. The Avengers were spread thin, down men and in need of help, and Bucky Barnes was the only backup they had left.
There is no other choice than to join the fight. Unfortunately, Steve Rogers has already assigned him a partner, the one and only Iron Man. To say that Bucky and Tony Stark did not get along was an understatement. Tony wanted Bucky dead, and Bucky, well, he just wanted Tony to leave him alone.
They are forced to set aside their emotions when they are ambushed and the Iron Man suit is destroyed, leaving them in a war zone and cut off from the team. Injured and hunted, they must fight for survival, but sometimes fighting just isn't enough. This is a trap they cannot escape.
Abducted and imprisoned in a desolate cell, what is it that their unknown captors want? More importantly, how the hell were James and Tony going to get out of this?

Summary
Six months in and the New Avengers had fallen into a routine with only a few bumps in the road. And being in charge of them isn't too hard. All things considered, Bucky thought being a leader wasn't so bad. The worst part was dealing with Valentina and keeping them from biting each other's heads off and trying to shrug off that exhaustion that just won't go away. But everything was fine, really. Nothing worth mentioning.

Summary
Not sure what else to say, but I give Bucky a symbiote because, why not?
He's going to go through it this fic, not gonna lie. Venom isn't exactly the most beginner friendly body roommate to have, as you may already know. But hey, he's already been through enough shit. Why not add more? :)

Summary
Bucky gets sick during a mission-- Sam is left to care for him while they are away from home.
"How thoughtful of you, Mr. Hero, holding this household afloat," Bucky whispered against the man's cheek. "I wish I could express my gratitude. Can I kiss you?"
Sam chuckled and finally shrugged him off of his shoulders. He pushed him away with a hand against Bucky's back.
"I think I already told you that there will be no kissing until you're fever-free. I don't wanna catch whatever freak of an illness you've caught. No, thank you," he shook his head, talking without looking at him. "You're delirious. Go to bed."--
Day 16: Only one bed | "I dare you."
Day 17: Baking | "Can I kiss you?"Series

Summary
“That idiot,” Sam growled out, shaking his head with vehemence. "He couldn’t have waited? Couldn’t have held off just five damn minutes for someone with the right gear? The room wasn’t going anywhere! It would’ve been fine to just wait, and now look where he is!”
“He’ll be okay, Sam,” Torres said, voice still quiet as he maneuvered the jet upwards and away. “He’s tough.”
“Whatever toxin that was was tougher,” Sam muttered, shaking his head. “He stopped breathing, Torres.”
While on a mission, Bucky takes a hit, and doesn't get back up. Sam helps him recover. (Or: shameless Bucky Barnes whump that I did way too much research into airborne poisoning and recovery for.)

Summary
Even when Zemo had ordered him to attack — Зимний солдат, атака — those were words Bucky heard every night, ringing through his mind when he shot up from the hardwood floor, and the blood on his hands from the people he had hurt was an all too familiar pain. At least this time, the people he had harmed were actual scum, and not innocent collateral damage in the wrong place at the wrong time.
(Or: The immediate aftermath of Sam, Bucky, and Zemo's undercover operation in Madripoor.)
