Summary
“Every time I close my eyes, I’m remembering. Faces, voices. People I’ve killed.” Bucky’s voice comes muffled, meat and bone and thermal fabric between the words and Steve’s ears. And the words still land like blows. “I’m a Goddamn plague upon the Earth, Steve. I can’t hurt you again.”
“You won’t. And Hydra won’t ever get near you again.” Steve says it like a spell, like a geas, like he’s gonna bend the fabric of the universe to his will. It’s a vow, binding as anything ever said in front of a priest. “I will raze the Goddamn Earth until Hydra ain’t so much as a Goddamn smear.”
Bucky breathes out, slow and controlled. “I want to believe that.”
Steve leans in and presses chapped lips to the centre of Bucky’s brow. “Believe me.”
***Nine months on the tundra. Nine months, in a world turning, churning, transformed. Nine months with the wolves.
Steve and Bucky, in Greenland. The Winter Soldier was never permitted to sleep, but maybe Bucky Barnes can rest, here, at the edge of the world. Steve Rogers cannot conjure healing magic, but he can shift his shape, and that might be the next best thing.
Arc Five in the Magic Pixie Dream Steve ‘verse.

Summary
There’s a dame standing at his kitchen sink, is Bucky's first stupid thought. And then his brain kinda wobbles, like the shimmer you see through the hot air rising from a campfire, and Buck realises he’s looking at Steve.
Steve, his back turned, at the sink. Wearing a dress.
Steve turns and picks up the tea towel from the counter, starts drying his hands, eye contact fierce and bright as midday sunlight through the stained glass of a cathedral.
It’s a nice dress. Soft kinda pale green, white lace framing his collarbones and hinted at around the knees, a petticoat layer beneath the skirt. He’s wearing lipstick—it’s a muted pink, pale, the skin of an apple just starting to ripen.
***
One-shot Bucky POV of a scene from The Truth May Vary. Bucky learns something new about Steve, and then they both learn a whole lot about the both of 'em.

Summary
Cas asks Dean to marry him, and Dean can't think of a reason to say no.
~~~
"Dean," Cas says calmly, gingerly sitting his fork down, and oh, this is gonna be a thing, Dean can tell. Sure enough, it is because Cas goes on to say, "What would you think if I suggested we get married?"
Dean blinks and swallows the food in his mouth, staring at Cas curiously. "I would think...you were either on drugs or going insane, why?"
"I'm not inebriated, nor mentally unstable."
"I—I…" Dean takes in a deep breath, then blows it out heavily. "Cas, you're not fucking with me, are you?"
"I'm not," Cas tells him.
"Okay," he says, "fuck it, let's get hitched."
"Thank you," Cas murmurs sincerely, then picks his fork back up and goes right back to eating.

Summary
So, the first thing that happens is Castiel comes back.
~~~
"Right," Dean says eventually, gruffly. He looks down at his shoes. "I'm not gonna tell you how to live your life, man. It's—you know, yours. Do your thing, love who you love, whatever. I can't really stop you from loving me, if that's what you've decided to do, but I don't—I can't—"
"I know," Castiel murmurs, still just smiling a little, not looking heartbroken at all. "Don't worry about it, Dean, that's all I ask."
"So we're—" Dean risks a glance up, swallowing thickly. "We're good?"
Castiel hums. "We're good."

Summary
The only reason Sasuke keeps coming back to Konoha is because of that mattress. The bed is his only respite. And perhaps the dumbass who owns said bed might be worth it, too.
Or, another canon divergence 699 that showers Sasuke with too much (deserved) love and attention that we all need for these unprecedented times.
Title means "Bonded Light". It'll make sense when you're about 100K in.
