In which Marc makes a trip to the pet store to buy a goldfish for Steven

Summary
Bucky knows Steve is dying for Bucky to let him in. Steve isn’t exactly subtle. Not trained to hide every emotion, not like Bucky was. So Bucky knows this distance between them--physical, emotional, and every other -al there is--is killing Steve. Why? Bucky certainly doesn’t know. All he knows is that everything is too dark. He’s too dark. His mind is a minefield that no one should witness. Right?
Until one night, that isn’t an option anymore. Until Bucky knows with complete certainty that he needs to let someone inOr - after weeks of keeping Steve at arm’s length, Bucky realizes he can’t go it alone anymore and reaches out to Steve in the middle of a New York night
Not written as slash or pre-slash or anything like that but it could easily be read as such if you’d like
Title is a lyric from “Train Wreck” by James Arthur

You're My Favorite Avenger... by day_dream_believer_32557038
Fandom: Marvel Cinematic Universe, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier (TV)
24 Apr 2022
Summary
Bucky meets a young girl who tells him that he's her favorite Avenger. Unbeknownst to him at that first meeting, after another encounter, Anna and her mother would become Bucky's family.
I wrote the first piece and just had to discover more of the story, so each work is a piece that could fit somewhere. Each work has the same characters and occasionally connect, but there isn't a cohesive story line.

Summary
Bucky hates this. Hates this assignment. Hates this place. Hates everything about it.
Hates that he and Sam agreed to do Rhodes a little favor, go check out a not strictly on the books government installation after the last bunch of poor saps Rhodes sent there never came back out.
Hates being in this terrible, creepy underground facility, this warped reflection of all the other terrible, creepy underground facilities he spent way too much of the past eighty years in. Hates how there’s always an unpleasant memory around the next corner. And something worse around the rest.
He hates the realization that unpleasant memories are quickly becoming the least of his problems. And he really hates the sinking feeling that they might not make it out of here intact. Or at all.

Summary
The New Avengers were not her choice of family. But neither was Natasha. They were thrown together by higher powers who wanted to use them and then dispose of them, and they’d banded together and said no, we’re worth more.
Yelena lost that first family. She’s not losing the second.
-----------------------------------
Yelena is settling into her new life as an Avenger. With a team, a purpose, and Kate Bishop constantly blowing up her phone, she now has one goal in mind - eliminate Valentina Allegra de Fontaine.That life collapses when Val gets wind of Yelena’s plan, taking drastic measures to ensure she has control over her New Avengers. Now under Val's thumb, and with the threat of Sam Wilson putting together his own team, the Thunderbolts' goal is simple: survive.
But when a growing terrorist organization rocks the world, endangering the lives of millions, survival is no longer enough. Battling Val, the press, and heroes and villains alike, the Thunderbolts must fight using their last chance at hope - each other.

Summary
There are, Sam has found, a number of things he does enjoy about being Cap. Saving people, sure. The suit, well that thing’s pretty sweet. The hordes of fawning admirers that absolutely do exist, no matter what Bucky says to the contrary? They’re not so bad either.
And there are things he enjoys less. Spending too much time in stuffy rooms around large tables where everyone just talks circles around one another. Living in a world where he has to be a voice for the voiceless, because no one else will be. Wreaking violence on a near-daily basis, because that seems to be the only language some people understand.
And there are things he really cannot stand. Like today. The saving innocent civilians, that’s alright. The doing violence to violent people, he can live with. But the having to sit here, pretending not to care while someone beats up his partner/co-worker/guy with a mutual friend right in front of him? Yeah. He’s over this shit.

Summary
“Help!” He cried. “My brother needs help!” In seconds a group of nurses surrounded him.
“What happened?” One of the nurses asked. Another came up next to him, reaching out and attempting to take Ponyboy out of Soda’s arms. A panic bubbled up inside of him as he tightened his grip on his little brother.
“No!” he cried protectively.
“Sir, we have to take him,” another woman said.
“Soda, let the nurse help,” came Steve’s voice. Soda felt like a live wire; like a trapped, wounded animal trying to protect its child. His body felt distant from him as the nurses finally took Pony away, and Soda pretended not to notice how Pony’s pale arm hung limply at his side. Steve guided him gently to the waiting room, where Soda sank to the floor in a haze.
Pony’s blood was all over him.
