    Summary

    Steve pauses after finishing a story about the alien invasion in New York and simply asks, “Do you think he feels the same about you?”

    Bucky flexes his hand impulsively, earning an angry look from Steve until he manages to get his fingers back in the places they were before. There’s some bossy nudging involved. Steve’s charcoal fingerprints are left behind. Bucky doesn’t entirely mind them. It makes him feel loved, a little. It makes him feel like someone who actually deserves to be loved.

    He doesn’t pretend to not understand Steve’s question.

    “I don’t know,” he admits, his voice hoarse.

    “I think it’d be nice, if he did.” Steve manages to say the words like they don’t matter, his focus back on his drawing, pencil moving crisply across the paper. “But whatever this thing is that you guys have, I think that’s nice too.”

    “Yeah,” Bucky says, glad Steve isn’t looking at him anymore as a ridiculously stupid smile takes over his face. “I think it’s nice, too.”

     

    ***

    I'm going to take care of him, Bucky thinks.

    “When was the last time you had a proper night’s sleep?”

    Summary

    Thumbing at the swollen glands in his wrists, seeking relief from how sore they are, Pete heads back to the bedroom. He has just enough wherewithal left in his foggy brain to remember to flick on the scent neutralizing diffusers all through the little apartment. He doesn’t produce anywhere near enough silk to operate as Spider-Man, and what he does produce is released far too slowly to be of any use...but for this, it works for this. It hurts a little, a stinging pull, the scent glands in his wrists red and puffy, exacerbated by the passing of the silk.

    The nest smells so intensely of Pete, it fills the whole walk in with an overbearingly cloying scent. It's not like a normal Omega scent, not enticing, it doesn't cry out to be bred. It's a warning, tells predators that what's inside is hostile and to be avoided. Smells like danger and the promise of death.

    Pete gave up fighting this instinct on his second heat. His brain is telling him that he should be making a nest, that he should want soft things, that he should want to be in bed or in a blanket fort or some other sort of nest made of familiar things that all the other, normal Omega’s want.

    Summary

    Bucky’s memory was shit on the best of days, held together by routine, mission objectives, trauma and duct tape. Sometimes, it crapped out on him completely, leaving him to piece together the details of his life from context clues and observation.

    He always thought fortune had a personal vendetta against him, so it was surprising to discover he’d somehow managed to snag the affections of a beautiful man with soft hair and a killer ass. Peter Parker was clearly the best thing to ever stroll into his life, so how the hell had Bucky forgotten him?

    Summary

    Peter doesn’t think he’s lonely. He’s too busy to be lonely. He’s twenty-two, working on his PhD and holding down a shitty job at the Daily Bugle, not to mention his nightly extra-curricular activities. He’s too busy for friends, and he’s certainly too busy for romantic interests. And yet, shockingly, apparently everyone in his life thinks he needs to stop being an anti-social recluse and get laid.

    So Peter enters the wide, wonderful world of online dating. He doesn’t expect to find his soul mate, or even a friend, and he’s definitely not looking for hook ups. He doesn’t know what he’s looking for, really, until one Wade W. Wilson catches his eye and captures his heart with risqué dog pics and a concerning obsession with cannibalistic serial killers.

    This is a love story. A sweet, inevitable journey towards each other. There is humor, and melancholy, and a touch of both gravitas and levity to the weeks that trickle by. But really it’s just an account of the slow, magnetic movement of Peter towards Wade, and Wade towards Peter.

    Summary

    When Steve Rogers does something nice for the wife of one of the largest Russian mafia families, Winifred sends her son, James Buchanan Barnes, to offer him a 'favor' in return. But Steve, who is incapable of seeing the bad in anyone, ends up missing the fact that Bucky's in the mafia entirely and thinks that this brick house of a man wants to go on a date. Bucky, finding this clueless yet confident coffee shop owner refreshing and adorable, decides to give it a shot.

    What blooms is a lovely romance between the two, where Steve is constantly surprised that they always have the best seats at restaurants, that Bucky seems to know everyone in Little Odessa, and that Bucky has a crap ton of guns in his apartment. But why do all of Steve's friends go pale when Bucky comes around? How does Natasha know Bucky? And when Steve's health starts to get in the way, how far will Bucky go to make things right?

    *

    A mafia AU slams into a coffee shop AU, and out pops a cracky, fluffy, smutty, and angsty identity porn fic between son-of-a-mafia boss Bucky Barnes and clueless coffee shop owner Steve Rogers that takes a brief look into the bowels of the American healthcare system.
