Summary
The first time Bucky realized it was a problem was in Wakanda.
Well, that’s not entirely true.
He knew that what everyone saw as a friendly gesture and basic human connection, the Soldier only knew punishment.

Summary
The hardest thing about coming back to the States was how uncomfortably familiar everything was. Stepping out of court and into the big city, where he knew these roads, these buildings, but something was wrong with them.
Flashes of memory from so long ago and a sense of deja vu following him wherever he went.

Summary
“Whenever you want to leave, we can go,” Ed told him, immediately met with a snort.
“Oh come on. The general lives like an hour away, plus he snores like an elephant on tranquilizers in his sleep. Just stay with me.”
All eyes turned to Joaquín then, wide open. But Sam is the one who said, “Huh?”
“Yeah, huh?” the colonel weighed in.
Joaquín looked a little insecure now, eyes landing on Sam’s and staying there, his the only reaction he cared about. “I mean, I live like 20 minutes from here, I’m clean, and I snore like a fairy taking a little nap on a flower petal.”
A little part of Sam’s heart warmed at that, unable to help a small smile.
“Don’t you wanna fuck this man?”
or
The first time Sam met Joaquin, it was warm.
And Sam was the coldest he had ever been. -

Summary
Rhiannon shook her head, eyes burning. “No,” she whispered, looking back up at him with burning rage. “No. You don’t get to say anything. You don’t get to come here. And you don’t get to look human.”
When she looked at him all she saw was her friend’s murderer—with something else buried in his eyes. Something broken. “I am no longer The Winter Soldier. I am James Bucky Barnes and you’re part of my efforts to make amends,” he stated blandly, then offered her a small, unamused smile.
”Don’t,” she hissed, tears threatening to spill over. “You murdered her.”
Barnes stared at her as if she had slapped him. As if he had heard those words hundreds of times before, but they still hurt nonetheless. She basked in that—bathed, even. The idea that she could hurt him, in any twisted or corrupted way, overjoyed her.

Summary
Emma's parents were murdered when she was a child. Spending most of her life sheltered by her grandmother, she's on her own now after discovering her grandmother died while Emma was vanished for five years. Seemingly by chance, she runs into a stranger who makes her feel like life is okay for a little while. But his secrets may threaten to disrupt everything in her already lonely life.
Bucky is working on completing his list of amends. When he meets the young woman whose parents he killed during his time as the Winter Soldier, he can’t help but be drawn to her despite his guilt. Just as he has difficulty with admitting the truth to Yori, he can’t seem to tell her, afraid it’ll drive her away from him for good.
Story starts a few months before TFATWS, and will eventually lead into the show. I like to try to stick to canon as much as possible but there will be some minor differences of course.
**I’ve added in the Thunderbolts* tag because the story will eventually lead into it !

abandonment issues (why did you have to leave?) by TheMarvelousUnknown (UnknownStoryLover)

Summary
From the outside it might have looked like he was observing his reflection, but inside his mind was a tangled mess of thorns and barbs, vines of memories trying to strangle him as he watched Steve leave over, and over, and over.
"'Till the end of the line..."
If that were true, Steve wouldn't have left him behind for someone he had known for only a few years, a few moments, a fraction, meanwhile he'd known Bucky for what felt like a lifetime. What almost was a lifetime. What could've been a lifetime. A lifetime that apparently only truly mattered to one of them. A lifetime that would never be long enough.
And now they would never be able to finish their story...
~~~~~~
or, I was trying to write a piece about why Bucky cut his hair for tfaws but it turned into an exploration of the repressed feelings Steve had during the Blip and how him leaving for the past affected Bucky, left alone in the present

Summary
James Buchanan Barnes was given a pardon for the actions of The Winter Soldier, however, he was required to have two sessions a week with a licensed psychiatrist (or in Bucky’s words, a shrink).
Bucky was never good at talking… or feelings. So by relation, he was absolutely terrible at talking about his feelings. But he never did have a choice.
Or in other words, a big collection of some of Bucky’s sessions with Dr. Christina Raynor

Summary
"Did you think you're the only winter solder Hydra tried to make?" she asked with a sharp voice.
Uh, no. He didn't. But he sure thought he was the only successful one.
She seemed to read his mind.
"You thought you're the only successful one, huh?" her voice sounded almost mocking, "What makes you think you're so special?"
He rolled his eyes. No, in fact, he never thought he was special. And if he was, he would very much prefer not to be, thank you.
Bucky's face twiched for a moment, pushing aside the irrelevant thoughts. He was here, on top of a container truck, somewhere in Vermelia, fighting another supersolder Hydra once created, who, somehow, seemed to have her mind under her control. What an wonderful trip this has come to be.Or, Bucky goes to a vacation in Vermelia on Dr. Raynor's advice and gets tangled in some things :))

Summary
“Did you miss the future?” Me, he doesn’t say. Hopes it’s implied anyway.
“No,” Steve says easily, putting down his newspaper on the table. “Not as much as I thought I would. I always felt like I...”
It takes too long for Bucky to recover the breath that caught in his lungs somewhere between that fateful no and when Steve stopped talking. Right. Steve stopped talking.
“Felt like what?” Bucky prompts. He wonders, vaguely, if Steve noticed the crack in his voice.
“Like I didn’t belong.”
I don’t belong.
“Like I was living a life that wasn’t meant for me.”
But I thought maybe...
“That wasn’t mine.”
I thought I belonged with you.
Or
Bucky reflects on his final days with Steve, tries to text Sam back, uses Google way too much, and has a very, very long day.

Summary
Steve grins. “I meant something like… playing as the Winter Soldier.”
Bucky immediately furrows his brows, face twisting into a scowl. “Steve—”
“I know,” Steve says quickly, raising a hand in surrender. “It sounds insane. But hear me out.” He shifts a little closer, lowering his voice just enough to make it sound like a secret. “What if I treat you like the Soldier? Talk to you like you’re dangerous. Like you’re mine to handle. While I’m pumping my cock in and out of you. Doesn’t sound so bad now, does it?”
Bucky stares at him. Not saying anything at first. The corners of his mouth twitch, like he’s caught somewhere between alarm and intrigue. “That’s… fucked up,” he says slowly.
“That’s the point.”
Or
Steve suggests roleplaying as Captain America and the Winter Soldier to help Bucky cope with his nightmares. After some thought, Bucky agrees, and they begin preparing.
