    Summary

    What if a temporal hiccup meant Steve Rogers completely botched his trip back in time and landed smack-dab in the middle of the newly formed Thunderbolts? A group of dysfunctional "heroes" with more baggage than a lost-and-found convention.

    For John Walker, it's the greatest day of his life. A lifelong fanboy, he's now on a team with his idol, Captain America, and Bucky Barnes, the one guy who’s been giving him the cold shoulder since forever. But John's hero worship is more than Bucky can take. Now Bucky has to deal with the guy he thought abandoned him and a puppy-dog soldier who's showering Steve with the admiration Bucky had been so carefully rejecting. It's a possessive, jealousy-fueled nightmare.

    Now, with missions to run and way too many feelings to unpack, the trio finds themselves in the most awkward love triangle in superhero history.

    Their solution? To somehow convince a completely oblivious John Walker that two of the world’s most complicated ex-soldiers are clumsily trying to court him. It's all a disaster, but hey, at least they're in it together.

    Summary

    “We can’t abandon Bob!” Yelena shouted. “He needs us! Family helps each other!”

    “Family?” Walker scoffed. “Three super soldier Dominants, a Ghost, an assassin and a submissive who Voids when he drops is not a family!”

    “Yelena?” Bob interrupted the argument from the door, eyes glowing yellow when he saw her upset. “What’s wrong?”

    “Nothing.” Yelena tried to smile. “Nothing’s wrong, Bob. You okay?”

    “Yeah.” the submissive knelt in front of her, went to his knees willingly for his favorite person. “But you’re sad.”

    “Not sad.” Yelena tugged Bob’s hair to pull him closer. “But you are staying, ok? You’re staying with me and no one,” She glared at the Dominants. “will make you leave. We’ll all learn to live together. Like family.”

    “What the hell do we do next time he drops and Voids?” John asked desperately and Bucky shrugged, “Learn how to be good enough Dominants to help him, I guess. Family, like Yelena said.”

    John wanted to belong to a family again so bad he ached with it, so he nodded and decided, “Okay. I’ll…try.”

    Summary

    John isn't quite sure of his role in the new and fragile team he's ended up with after getting used to being assigned one all these years as a soldier and a shadow operative.

    Everyone else seems to fall into some designation or other—leader, strategist, moral compass, father figure, muscle—all of them pieces falling in a puzzle that John can't seem to fill because the others fit better, and the thought slowly pushes him into a frustrated despair.

    John spirals, becoming one with the sofa. He doesn't know that something else is wrong with him. Something darker and more sinister.

    --

    John wakes up in a cold sweat, drawing deep, labored breaths, feeling like his chest is about to cave in.

    His bloodshot eyes focus, and with it, the chilling realization.

    A sinister shape, pitch black, is straddling him, a figure so utterly devoid of light that it's silhouetted by the already dark background that is his room.

    It only takes a second for him to catch on. He's seen this figure before, hovering above New York the day Bob transformed into Sentry.

    "You show such willfulness, John Walker, clinging to your own darkness for so long."

    Summary

    “I’ve been working with this guy who’s about to be released from the Putnam State Prison.” He finally said. The suspicion returned to John’s eyes. “He’s a good kid, John. He’s just had a real tough go at life. Struggled with addiction, fell in with the wrong crowd.”

    “Bucky—“

    “Non-violent. He was arrested in Atlanta when he was 21. He was working for this dealer that had him on the streets selling drugs and—“ He cut himself off, “Anyway he was sentenced to five years. He’s getting out in a week and he’s lost, John. He’s got nowhere to go. No family, no anything. And I know if he doesn’t have something he’s just gonna go back to his old habits and land himself right back in prison, or worse.”

    “So what, you want me to babysit him?”

    “No, I want you to put him to work.”

    -

    John is a ranch owner struggling to keep up on his own. Bob was just released from prison and needs a job and a place to stay. Bucky thinks they could be good for each other.

    Summary

    John's life took the worst turn ever since he was stripped of his title as Captain America. Without Olivia and his son by his sides, the only thing making him get out of bed in the morning was Valentina sending him on missions.

    Summary

    She smiled, slow and predatory. “Here’s the deal. You want Ava? Then you need to be clever. I won’t gift-wrap and deliver her to you. But… there might be opportunities."

    "I'm listening," he said.

    Of course he was. "I can put her in the field. On a mission. And you know missions, there's a thousand ways they could go wrong. Teams get separated. She might end up, oh I don't know, at the wrong place, the wrong time.”

    His gaze sharpened. “You’re dangling.”

    Of course I am.” Valentina leaned back in her chair, enjoying the taste of the wine now. “If your people can extract her in the middle of chaos, then congratulations, she’s yours. But if you fail…” Her smile widened. “Well, you’ll lose millions in resources, dozens, if not hundreds of men, and worst of all? You’ll have a pack of assassins masquerading as heroes ripping your empire - or your face - to shreds. That’s the risk.”

    -

    Just another day of business for Valentina Allegra de Fontaine.

    At Ava's expense, unfortunately.

All hope is lost. That is, until Odette Sloane is dragged into the mix.

    OR

    Summary

    When Valentina gifts the team an experimental bottle of alcohol strong enough to get even supersoldiers drunk, nobody expects the night to end in moans, bets, and more than one broken illusion.
    Jhon swears he’s straight. Bucky swears he sees Steve. And the rest of the team swears they’ll never forget what they overheard from down the hall.

    Summary

    “John groaned tiredly while he slowly stretched his arms behind his head. Bob rapidly looked away, before his brain could form any thoughts about the man's muscles and the sounds emitting from his throat. "I can't wait to get out of these fucking clothes." John's hoarse voice started Bob, who still refused to stop staring at the closed elevator doors. Did he really have to say it like that? Bob's discomfort had temporarily hijacked his thoughts, keeping them away from filthier matter, and now John had made his breath falter without even meaning to. Because he never meant to do that, to turn Bob into a reluctant, embarrassingly horny mess."

     

    An undercover investigation in a gay club forces the thick, growing tension between Bob and John to violently collapse. Their differences regarding love and sex should only pull them apart, so why can't they put out their desire?
    Emotional casualties are bound to occur.

    Summary

    Five times I almost said “I love you,” but even though I didn’t put it into words, maybe I expressed it through actions, glances, and presence.

    or...

    The five times John Walker was hopelessly in love with his teammate and couldn’t say it out loud… until he finally did—not only saying it, but showing it.

    Summary

    in which the thunderbolts recruit someone who really, really doesn't want to be recruited.


    Bucky checks his watch. 9:04. “Okay, guys, let's head up to—HEY!” he suddenly yells, going up to the ledge.

    Ava and Bob each have one leg in their hand. Walker is dangling over the edge of the wall, taking a picture of the opposite side.

    Yelena watches as Bucky quietly but furiously whispers to them, making Ava and Bob hang their heads in shame. The three of them pull Walker up, whose smile immediately fades when he sees Bucky.

    She starts to giggle as Bucky grabs Walker's arm with his metal hand, squeezing it as he talks rapidly under his breath and pulls him towards the elevator. All Walker can do is nod and try to squirm out of Bucky's grip.
