Summary
Monday updates. From their fated meeting in Azzano, Bucky and Lydia find themselves crossing paths and held together by invisible threads through the decades.
*This is a bit of a canon rewrite, but not enough that it changes any major plot lines. And while this is an OC fic, it is primarily Bucky driven. The timeline spans from The First Avenger to the Thunderbolts.

Summary
Reality.
noun
The state of things as they actually exist, as opposed to an idealistic or notional idea of them; the state or quality of having existence or substance.The world was still scarred by one of the deadliest wars. Glimmers of rehabilitation were beginning to surface right before society plunged back into the same, repetitive cycle. Times grew harder. The world struggled.
It took bravery to recover. It took courage to face it again.
Unacknowledged heroes held together the world before it collapsed. It happened once before – it’s possible to do it again.
New demands require new solutions. They have to live up to that promise.

Summary
Bucky Barnes was supposed to fall in love with a girl he met out dancing, a girl he’d eventually marry, and they’d raise their children together in a nice house in the suburbs with white picket fencing.
Instead he falls for Steve Rogers. Steve and his sharp tongue, his unwavering loyalty, and his dry humor—Steve, who’ll never see Bucky as anything but his best friend.
--------
Steve Rogers believed he would never meet someone who would like him for who he truly was. He’s small, weak, alone, picking fights he knows deep down he can’t win.
Then, all of a sudden there’s Bucky. Bucky and his charm, his easy-going personality, and his hearty laughter—Bucky, who’s too good, too perfect to be associated with the likes of Steve.
It all comes crashing down from there.

Summary
The year is 1945. You are Mrs. James Barnes, one of the countless 'gold star wives' who lost a husband in the war. V-E Day in Europe brings an end to the European theatre; though to you, the victory is hollow without Bucky by your side. You didn't even have a body to bury.
As focus shifts to the fighting continuing in the Pacific, you are facing the frightening prospect of raising your unborn child alone. That is, until Steve Rogers comes to your door, determined to make good on the last request that Bucky ever made of him.
The year is 1955. He is the Winter Soldier, and has been for the past decade, living a half-life in the ice at the whims of others. When he is roused for a mission, he executes it without question. He doesn't wonder why the target calls him 'Barnes'. He doesn't hesitate to kill. And once he stages the scene to look like an accident, all he needs to do is walk away.
But he can't. Because in a fleeting photograph on a newspaper front page, he sees the face of a stranger he doesn't remember, but who he knows. And he can't get you out of his head.

Summary
In an alternate universe, Steve Rogers is a kid from Brooklyn who ended up becoming Captain America. He fought through every danger with his loyal best friend by his side, and he had a romance that was never meant to be with the girl of his dreams.
This is not that universe.
In this universe, Steve still becomes Captain America. He still crashes into the ice. But the story of how he gets there, and the two people he values most in the world? That's a little different.
***
A little peak behind the scenes, and a kind of character study of Steve. There's not much to say that this couldn't have been happening in the movie, right?The first fic in my Earth-313 series. See other prologue for explanations.

Summary
Before the start of the war, Charlotte Lehmann had believed it could not get any worse than the Anschluss.
Watching her beloved country submit to the Reich was a betrayal too deep for words. But things can always get worse. The night can always get darker. By 1943, that darkness had come to plunge Europe into war...
...and rumours of a girl who sees fleeting glimpses of moments not yet come, or visions of faces she had never met but would later see, reach the ears of HYDRA, the Nazi deep science division.
Branded as traitors, 'Charlie' is seized by the Gestapo and torn from her family, remanded to the HYDRA work camp at Kreischberg. There, she's subjected to brutal experimentation at the hands of Dr. Arnim Zola, as he tries in vain to enhance her natural gifts.
But when the captured 107th arrives, one amongst them stands out. Sergeant James Buchanan Barnes, with defiance still burning behind his eyes, is chosen for the same brutal experiments that Charlie has already been enduring for months. Bound now by common cause, they must find a reason to survive the darkness together—even as it threatens to swallow them both whole.

Summary
There's a lot of expectation attached to Steve Rogers' name. It's taken him years to prove his own worth - that he's made it so far in the USNA on his own merit and not just because of his father. He's close though - there are only a few more months until he graduates and gets to stand on his own two feet. It's taken a lot of effort to get there, and a lot of sacrifices.
Bucky's beyond the point of expectation. When your father and grandfather have both been President - and your mother nurses political ambitions of her own - brilliance is a foregone conclusion. He's just counting down the final months of his confinement to the glass cage of the White House and he's determined to put that whole world behind him.
But as the days standing between them and their dreams dwindle, Steve comes to realize he might have made one sacrifice too many, and Bucky learns that his freedom comes at a cost he's never going to be able to pay.

Summary
Death is not the worst thing that can happen to a man.
To break him, you must first shatter his body—again and again and again. Then, you take his mind, his will, his name. You strip him down to something unrecognisable, reshape him into something he was never meant to be. Survival is its own kind of cruelty, and some wounds don’t heal. Some don’t even scar.
Because war doesn’t just take—it remakes. It chews men up and spits them out as something else: hollowed out, stitched haphazardly, and left to stumble forward. No side is ever truly victorious, not when the battlefield becomes a graveyard, and the survivors are left carrying its ghosts. No matter who wins, the cost is always the same: death. the weight of what can never be undone.
All wars end the same.

Summary
Bucky Barnes has a lot to contend with in the 21st century. One difficult task after another is laid out in front of him: managing his new found freedom, attending therapy and working through his trauma. It's a struggle, but recovery is not a straight line, as his therapist so often likes to remind him.
He has to navigate this friendship / relationship / whatever it is with Sam all the while managing his guilt and shame for his years as the Winter Soldier, and his grief over Steve's death. Then of course there’s these new super soldiers that have appeared out of nowhere that have to be dealt with, along with the frustrating inclusion of new faces, like Walker, and the familiar, like Zemo.
And then there is another task, one that sometimes seems to be the most difficult task of all: learning to be kind to his past self.
Rewrite / fix it of TFATWS – you do not need to read the other parts of this series, this works as a standalone. Pre TFATWS to about three months after the series ends. Not just a rehash of the TV series, I like to bounce off canon and do my own thing. I generally update fortnightly.
