Summary
Three months after the New Avengers make their debut, Congressman Bucky Barnes is getting ready to pass his first - and likely only - bill of his political career.
Ava Starr has personal business that she needs to attend to in Washington, D.C., so she hitches a ride with her fellow Avenger (a distinction she's yet to fully embrace for herself).
Things soon get complicated between them.
Even when you take the assassins trying to kill the pair of them out of the picture.
(A StarrBucks/WinterGhost romance, canon compliant up until the post-credits scene; updates when I feel like it)

Summary
Ava Starr is bound and determined to help the 106-year-old man living in her apartment building, not realizing that he is Bucky Barnes, the Winter Soldier!
Or: A reclusive, weary Bucky has retreated back to his Brooklyn apartment after the events of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, unaware that his life is about to change thanks to his beautiful downstairs neighbor.
Snippet:
Ava moved up the next step and promptly stopped. Wait. Someone who was one-hundred-and-six-freaking-years-old lived in the same building? All by himself? Her heart dropped to the pit of her stomach. This place was a shithole. She took the stairs because the elevator barely worked and when it did, it smelled strongly of feet. How did the poor old thing even get his mail? There was some senior citizen living all alone, wasting away somewhere in the same building (he had to be wasting away, right? He was over a century old!) as her. This poor man had to be on his last leg. If he could even walk at all, that is. And a recluse at that, shutting himself away. It was simply too tragic to contemplate.
Finally, Ava found someone she wanted to help.

Summary
Following the story of Thunderbolts*(2025), a character study meant to examine the relationships of the Thunderbolts (though mostly the main tagged four as I originally wrote this as a two shot about Yelena and Bob setting up Ava and Bucky on a date) spanning from the end of the movie. No set amount of chapters yet, as it's all based on connected experiences shared by the team, but there's still a blurry storyline to follow.

Ava tilted her head. She couldn’t read all the words, but she knew numbers. And she knew what dates were. It meant a cake. It meant your parents singing a song, their voices loud and off-key. It meant you were special, just for that one day.
She looked at the calendar on Bill’s desk. Her eyes traced the numbers. September. 27. The date on the card was tomorrow.

Summary
"First time in New York in a while?" he asked, settling back in his seat.
"Been a few years," she confirmed, her gaze drifting back to the window. "Work keeps me busy. I’m a farmer. Pigs, mostly. You wouldn’t think it, but they’re very demanding."
Bill raised his eyebrows, intrigued. "Pigs? Can’t say I’ve met many pig farmers on the way to Manhattan."

Summary
Bill had always thought the quiet in his house was comforting. For years, it had been his buffer, the pause after long lectures, the place he retreated when the world became too loud. He could grade essays in peace and ignore the ghosts of his past as long as the door stayed locked. The minutes would tick on and he could forget what time it was, what day it was, what year it was.
But now it wasn’t quiet at all.
Or, Ava is a fussy eater in the weeks after SHIELD falls.

Summary
"Do you know what a soulmate is?"
Ava sniffled, wiping her nose on the sleeve of her shirt. She shook her head. The word sounded magical, like something from the fairy tales her mother read to her at night, all gossamer wings and fated princes.
"It’s a person," Catherine said, choosing her words with the care of a poet, "who is the other half of you. They’re a perfect match for your soul, someone who is destined to understand you in a way no one else ever could."

Summary
The terms on the paper, which looks like it was originally typed on a typewriter and has been photocopied at least four thousand times, are “Father” and “Mother.” After several minutes of considering his options, he finally settles for crossing out the “M” and writing “Father” next to the word as neatly as he can in the small available space, so the resulting form has information on Natasha’s “Father” and “Other Father.”
“I do same thing on the official enrollment documents,” Alexei says, peering over the Winter Fox’s shoulder. “So obsessed with the idea of traditional nuclear family, these people. So heteronormative. This is the '90s! This is America! Family can be anything.”
The Winter Fox says, “Family can be a recovering brainwashed ex-killer puppet, a super soldier ex-spy for a state that no longer exists, and two adopted daughters who were meant to become elite government-destabilizing assassins until they became stowaways.”
“Exactly!” Alexei exclaims. “You get it!”
Or: Bucky becomes a father, joins the PTA, falls in love with a fellow super soldier, reconciles his past & present, and becomes an Avenger, in that order.

Summary
"You were dust," he said quietly. "Literally. You were dust scattered everywhere, and I knew there was a chance you'd come back. So I waited. And I worked."
The way he said it, like it was simple. Like spending five years alone with cancer while researching quantum mechanics in their home laboratory was just what anyone would do.

Summary
Others at S.H.I.E.L.D. saw an opportunity in Ava’s affliction. They built a containment suit to control her phasing. They trained her as a stealth operative, weaponized her — she stole for them, spied for them, killed for them. All of it was documented.
or
S.H.I.E.L.D. has been gone for months. Ava’s cure never came. She’s staying with Bill now, and he’s kind in a way she isn’t used to, but if she’s to have any hope of a pain-free existence, they both need to face what happened in that lab prison. Neither of them are quite ready for the footage.
