    Summary

    This series started out as a place to stash prequel ficlets that were intended to be brief flashbacks/asides in a sprawling, unposted, in-progress Bucky recovery fic. But then the recovery fic's backstory got overly complicated and grew a narrative of its own. I cut the narrative off, but two more took its place. Go figure.

    (And the ficlets... all turned out to be stories. Again, go figure.)

    There are definitely tie-in/continuation shenanigans throughout this series, and the individual stories will be referenced by the aforementioned WIP, but each story of the series should largely be readable on its own. Pieces will be posted as they are polished up, probably out of chronological order. Each one will have at least one timestamp inside, though, and often several.

    Summary

    While on a mission storming a HYDRA facility, James Buchanan Barnes touches one of the many strange alien devices collected by the Red Skull. He does this, in fact, twice— in the past, and in the future.

    Next thing he knows, Bucky Barnes is opening his eyes in the 21st century, which is full of great gadgets and coffee, and at least includes his old pal Steve. (And, inexplicably, a different Stark.) Meanwhile, the Winter Soldier finds himself in the middle of World War Two, helping Captain America hunt down HYDRA (which is at least familiar), pretending to be Bucky Barnes (which is not), and figuring out the very noisy group of soldiers who call themselves the Howling Commandos.

    Winter Soldier Time Travel (loosely-related, stand-alone stories) by

    Fandom: Captain America (Movies), Marvel, Marvel Cinematic Universe, The Avengers (Marvel Movies), The Avengers (Marvel) - All Media Types, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier (TV)

    14 Feb 2023

    Summary

    Post FATWS Bucky inadvertently travels back in time to 2014, just after the helicarriers and the Winter Soldier incident, which leads to three separate timelines. A whole lot of angst, chaos, friendship stuff, recovery, and multi-verse shenanigans ensue. The three stories are all stand-alones. Like most of the movies, you can read them without having read the others, but Part 1 does give some helpful background to the other two parts. (Gen, but Winter Soldier's Endgame has a Stucky version and no-ship version).

    Summary

    When Bucky was rescued from Hydra, Steve took him to Avenger's Tower and the two of them started right back up where they'd left off. Things were going well, until Natasha started gossiping.

    Bucky couldn't believe he hadn't noticed before.

    Summary

    Months after the Avengers' dispute in Germany, the team returns to the US and moves back into the tower. As always, everyone pretends that nothing happened. Tony is just fine with this. He's used to pretending, and he'll be damned if he lets any of them see him flinch.

    Tony's the bad guy, after all. He's used to it. He's fine with it. He's good at it.

    Only now, there's something far worse loitering around the tower - The Winter Soldier. No one notices the guy at first, but when they do, Tony figures that he should have the soldier's back.

    Birds of a feather should flock together, and the bad guys should start a book club.
