    Summary

    "Sam," He whispers.

    "Yeah?" Sam whispers back. He's looking at Bucky's forehead, eyebrows raised. He's got his mouth parted in that little frown he does when he's focused. The paper towels are no longer streaked with red when Sam pulls them away. Bucky is pretty sure his face was clean a while ago.

    Or

    Sam refuses to leave, so Bucky learns how to stay.

    Summary

    When Bucky fell from that train, when he slipped through Steve’s fingers, it had felt like the end of the world, a cataclysm whose blast radius was limited to one Steven Grant Rogers. Everyone else, he’d thought, could survive it, even if it hurt them. Steve could not. Steve had not, even if that had proven to be a temporary state of affairs.

    Now, Steve’s world doesn’t feel like it’s ending. It feels like it’s beginning again: a violent transformation, a terrible rebirth. It roars through him, hope and horror in equal measure, drowning everything else out.

    After the Avengers find a frozen Bucky in an abandoned HYDRA base in Siberia, Steve thinks that everything will be okay now that he has Bucky back, now that he's safe and alive and healing, now that they're together again. But Bucky's road to recovery is long, and Steve and Bucky have fundamentally different ideas about what it means to come home from the war seventy years later than they'd expected to. Those different ideas might even be irreconcilable. Even if Steve has found Bucky, he's going to have to reckon with the ways he's lost himself along the way, or risk losing Bucky forever.

    Summary

    Buried in the leaked data was a video. Howard and Maria Stark, not killed in a car accident, but brutally murdered at the hands of HYDRA's most valuable asset. Twenty-three years after the fact, their son sees the footage, tracks down the asset, and prepares for revenge.

    Alternatively: Bucky's recovery, documented in detail by people who learn to love him. Some for the first time, some all over again.

    Summary

    At first, Bucky didn’t sleep at all.

    They noticed it while he was recovering from his injuries—once the anesthetics wore off, he simply stayed awake.

    It was Natasha who found the files that explained it.

    Stability protocol: the Asset must remain conscious; any mission downtime longer than 24 hours requires cryogenic storage; memory wipes must be administered before and after each operation.

    HYDRA had completely stripped away his ability to sleep.

    Put simply: Bucky no longer knew how to fall asleep.

    Summary

    “What? No! I mean — I just meant—“ said Mike, struggling with the words, “I… I mean… who is it?” he turned back to Hugo, “Can we know their name? It might be somebody we know already.”

    Will frowned, “I hope it’s not,” he said, “I don’t like anybody we know enough to marry them — except our friends, obviously, but that’s different.”

    Hugo, if it was even possible, looked somehow immensely more excited by these words, “I can’t tell you who it is,” he giggled, “That’s a really big spoiler.”

    Mike Wheeler’s son arrives in Hawkins with no explanation, snapped back in time entirely by accident — and he latches on to none other than Will Byers. If only they all knew why.
