Prompt: Steve/Bucky, Bucky sold his soul (maybe)

Bucky, in a fit of youthful stupidity, sells his soul to what he believes was the devil (this being Bucky, it was probably to save Steve's life). He knows he's living on borrowed time, and he's got no intention of letting Steve know.

Steve eventually finds out when the not!devil comes collecting (post CAWS, perhaps?).


Before he goes to Europe, Bucky summons a demon in order to make sure Steve will stay safe. There is no way, of course, for this to go badly.

Prompt: Steve/Bucky, Bucky turning tricks for medicine money

During a routine Avengers get-together someone starts how did I lose my virginity? game. Bucky, whose memory is still spotty and largely bereft of context, volunteers it was in the early 1930s, to a guy called Jeremy. Because Sam instilled a therapy policy to let him talk, react to nothing, and ask innocuous follow-up questions, they learn it was January, in a back alley, and he got money for it, which he used to buy medicine.

Steve reacts poorly, but tries to hold it together.



Sometimes, Steve's team has "bonding rituals" and the weapon-trying-to-be-a-man joins in. This night, the "bonding ritual" involves alcohol and stories of first time sexual contact.

Prompt: [Any] Steve Rogers is a scary bastard

Usually, Steve is the sweetest, gentlest guy around. He's respectful, humble, and still a little bit shy.

But Steve has a temper, and a few nuclear berserk buttons.

I want to see what happens when some idiotic bad guy manages to press one.

(Bonus!points if it has to do with Bucky.)



The thing about Steve Rogers' anger is that it's quiet.
