grace’s stucky fic recs
Tumblr media
Round three of my “cope with crippling anxiety and uncertainty with stucky love” fic rec list! Thank you to @ao3commentoftheday​ for the gorgeous banner!
@ao3commentoftheday​ suggested making a fic rec list to spread some joy in these shitty and overwhelming times. I’ve certainly been relying on some of my favorite emotional support fics so I thought I’d make a couple of posts to share some of my favorites and maybe introduce someone to a new fic, writer, or artist. I’m planning to make a few posts with a few fics and an artist in each. I’d love to hear if you love some of these too, but more importantly, leave some love for the authors and artists if you can! I lurked for a long time when I found ao3 and rediscovered fandom and am trying to go back and leave love on all my favorites. Brighten someone’s day and leave them a comment or kudos on ao3 or reblog them on tumblr!
🧡💛💚💙💜 
Sharing a few more of my favorite fics today! Stay safe and healthy and spread some love where you can. <3
I recently discovered @transbucky​​ and am just totally in love with two of his fics: 
seasons change (but people don’t) is a short, beautifully written fic with trans Steve and struggling to remember Bucky and three really well done interwoven timelines. https://archiveofourown.org/works/2247549
Turn Your Back on Mother Nature is recently completed and takes us from pre-War through post-Winter Soldier with trans Bucky and so-canon-its-ridiculous Steve. All the heart eyes and happy tears. https://archiveofourown.org/works/20431688
Unusual Weather by novembersmith is just perfectly sweet and sexy fluffy smut. https://archiveofourown.org/works/1892094 Bucky gets a little…affectionate? handsy? while getting his arm worked on. Dub-con warning for use of painkillers. This one gets bonus points for use of the tag High Horny Snuzzly!Bucky.
The Honey Honey series by justanotherStonyfan is as long AF if you’re looking to get lost in a stucky verse. Still posting (last update was March 2020). https://archiveofourown.org/series/943938 A Shrunkyclunks AU with an interesting and unique premise. Features a significant age difference and some kink (no daddy kink). Great smut but also lots of sweet softness and really interesting backstory. Bonus points for you if you can find my mac&cheese adapted recipe I posted in the comments inspired by Steve’s culinary efforts (I’m jesuisgrace on ao3; same icon). 
I found @jaybrogers​​ on tumblr recently and am low key obsessed with their tattooed, nonbinary, pierced Buckys. Don’t miss the link in the last chapter of Turn Your Back on Mother Nature 😍 This thigh tattoo Bucky and bday Bucky are probably my faves.

tell me (all the ways to love you)
Chapter Two
Warnings: brief homophobic language
Summary: The Avengers compound has gone under quarantine to curb the spread of the coronavirus. Steve and Bucky have been paired together in the team’s mandatory buddy system. There’s one problem, though: the room they share only has one bed, and they’re both trying to hide the crushes they have for each other.

Shrunkyclunks | 68K | Explicit
~
Seven years into an isolated retirement after the Battle of New York, Steve has carved out a place for himself in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains. He has a best friend (his dog, Lady), a frenemy (a local black bear named Rufus), and a cabin in the middle of the woods, an hour’s drive from the nearest town. As November comes to a close, he heads into town to pick up supplies and ends up with a stowaway.
Bucky hasn’t had much luck over the past seven years. Disaster caused his family to move from New York to Indiana, and his life has steadily fallen apart ever since. After one too many heartbreaks, he decides to hitch his way back to the last place he remembers being happy: Brooklyn. He’s in the homestretch when he finds himself stranded in a half-empty tourist town in the Catskills and decides to take a chance crawling into the back of someone’s truck.
AKA the “Lumberjack Steve/Twink Bucky” fic of our hearts. Bucky spends so much time thirsty as hell.
~
This is the first fic I’ve read from 2019 breakout writer duo 2bestfriends, one of my favourite writers I’ve discovered this year!! This fic is SO GOOD Y’ALL!!! (no surprise it ended up in my favourite fics of 2019 hehe! *insert link*). Their Steve is just so….. UGH.
Tumblr media
yep. that’s about it.

He’s the most gorgeous thing Bucky’s ever laid eyes on.
He’s his new tentative boss. Maybe. If this interview goes well enough, anyway.
“So, Mr. Barnes?” Steve asks, blinking at him from across a particle board table. He smiles, revealing those crooked teeth. “You ever work security before?”

That was an amazing story, I really loved it! 😃

All of these books are queer, but they all have back blurbs that don’t say they’re queer. While this can be a pain if I’m scouting for queer SFF, it can come in handy for people in a situation where they don’t want to be reading queer books openly. 
Please do note that I don’t have hard copies of the books on hand so it’s possible that an author quote or something mentions one being queer (I feel like this isn’t super likely, but I don’t want to rule it out). Some might also have author biographies mentioning that the author is queer. Also, some may be shelved as LGBT on Goodreads or categorized as queer on Amazon. So if you’re planning on asking for any of these as holiday gifts, I would suggest going to the Amazon page or where ever your relative is likely to buy it from and double check that it’s something you’d be comfortable with sharing openly. 
I wish I had more pansexual books, but the ones I know of tend to mention queerness in the back description. 
With the exception of The Spy with the Red Balloon, these are all books I have read or are currently reading. If you want to recommend others, feel free to do so in the replies!
You can find my other queer book recommendations here.
Links to the queer books database (or Goodreads if the book hasn’t been added yet) are available below the cut. You can find information on content warnings there.

Fake relationship | 11K | Explicit
~
Steve, Sarah, and Bucky are headed down to Florida to visit the Barnes family for Thanksgiving. Bucky’s tired of the interrogation about his love life from his Ma, and Sarah suggests the simplest solution would be for he and Steve to fake it for a few days.
How hard can it be, right? After all, they’ve shared a bed before. After all, it’s only pretend.
…Right?
~
Happy Thanksgiving Americans! Here’s a Thanksgiving fic for the occasion :P
This one truly proves that mama knows best! ;D
Absolutely loved it!!

Weekly Recap | November 11-17
Tumblr media
Complete
Fix Me (I’ve Been Broken) by deadto27/ @deadto27​ (Modern AU | 7K | Teen): Bucky’s tap starts leaking. Steve comes to fix it. Bucky swoons. He starts breaking things so Steve will fix them. To be honest, it’s not the best plan he’s ever had.
💙 a road less traveled by Claudia_flies/ @claudia-flies, cyclamental art (cyclamental), maichan, zilia (2012 Alternate Timeline | 75K | Explicit): Steve wakes up on the cold stone floor of the foyer. He scrambles up; there’s glass shards everywhere and they crunch under his gloved hands. People are staring, holding themselves back. They must have seen the fight, must have seen two of him. His own voice rings in his head. “Bucky is alive!”
The Past Can Rest in Peace by dixons_mama (TFA | 3K | Explicit): Behind the scenes of that Smithsonian film, and what happened after.
💙 rather be a lover than a fighter (found peace in your violence) by voxofthevoid/ @voxofthevoid​ (Post-Endgame | 4K | Explicit): The dust has settled, and the world is healing. Men are too.
EXHALE by GlitterCake20 (Post-Endgame | 1,5K | General): “Listen, I’ve loved you for an entire lifetime.“ Steve tells him what they both already know, "I’m ready to go fifty more. But only you and I, just like this. Together. I won’t do it any other way.”
we’re trying for something that’s already found us by GlitterCake20 (Shrunkyclunks, Soulmates AU | 3,6K | Mature): Steve straddles his bike, he’s about to start it and wallow on the ride home about yet another soulmate-less day, when he hears it. “Goddamn, baby boy, take a ride on this.” in which you hear your soulmate’s thoughts when they see you for the first time.
I’ll hold on a little tighter (maybe you’ll stay the night) by GlitterCake20 (Modern AU | 10K | Explicit): "No strings. I ain’t got time for strings.“ Steve murmurs. Bucky nods helplessly. "Be discreet.” Steve continues kissing his neck and talking, now also rubbing and squeezing his thigh. “Condoms, always. Back out anytime you want. And sweetheart—” “Hm?” Bucky hums in a delirious daze as Steve works all the way down to his collarbone and bites, making Bucky jolt forward. “I like it rough, don’t do it any other way. If that ain’t your thing, we gotta call it off right now.”
💙 should auld acquaintance be forgot (will you kiss me in the morning light?) by VenusMonstrosa (Modern AU, New Year’s Eve | 3,8K | Explicit): The man quirks an eyebrow and delicately removes the cigarette from his mouth, turning to blow the smoke downwind. “I’ll leave you to it. Let me just finish up and get out of your way.” “You can– I mean– Well, I don’t live here,” Steve states rather obviously. “You can stay. It’s your roof, I guess.”
💙 eggshell by spqr (Soulmates AU | 7K | Teen): Bucky’s born with “Are you the stripper?” on his ass, because of course he is.
at first chance i’d take the bed warmed by the body by spacebuck/ @spacebuck​ (Shrunkyclunks, Youtuber AU | 8K | Explicit): The one where Bucky’s a youtuber who solves puzzles on camera, and Steve’s smitten and horny.
blood orange by brideofquiet (ABO AU | 4,5K | Explicit): It’s a game, always. Chase me, take me, remind me I’m yours.
💙 Why you so mad, when you could be GLAAD? by verzacefatale/ @verzacefatale (Modern AU | 7K | Teen): Steve takes his hands off Bucky, but before he can cross his arms to stop from touching Bucky again, they grab Steve’s hand and squeeze. Steve feels everything around him stop and crystallize into that one perfect moment where all five-feet-ten-inches-in-boots of Bucky is smiling up at him through heavy-lidded eyes and a layer of fake eyelashes, with a twist to their mouth like maybe they do find Steve interesting, and it’s all he wants to know.
💙 bit warm, but that don’t mean i’m on fire by notlucy/ @notlucy​ (BDSM AU | 9,5K | Explicit): Nobody puts Bucky in a corner. (Part 5 of 💙 Give a Little, Take a Little)
WIP
A Company Man by mambo/ @whtaft​ (Modern AU | 1/16 | 5K | Explicit): No matter what it is, the truth is the same: Steve Rogers is in love with Bucky Barnes, a married man.
💙 Fan the Flame by Avaaricious/ @fannishflightsoffancy​ (Shrunkyclunks | 29/? | 276K | Mature): AKA the “I thought you were a dude-bro and meant to swipe left on Tinder but I slipped. We matched and now I’m stuck talking to you” AU
Re-read
💙 (series) Stop interrupting my grinding by rohkeutta/ @rohkeutta​ (Shrunkyclunks | 6 works | 33K | Mature): A.ka the notorious Bitch series.
💙 From Hydra with Love by insomnia1999 (Spies AU | 21K | Mature): Captain Steve Rogers is one of the best spies in the world - a marksman, a martial artist, an expert in strategy and tactics. There’s not a lot he can’t handle. Heck, he’s even saved the world once or twice. So why does every run in with the mysterious Winter Soldier leave him feeling like the Bond Girl?

Summary:
Prince Steven Rogers and Knight James “Bucky” Barnes of Mar-vell have been inseparable all their lives. But when a mission against the warring kingdom of Hydra goes wrong, Bucky is thought dead, leaving Steve to his grief. Two years later, Steve has almost succeeded in ridding the land of Hydra, and in the final battle finds himself coming face to face with their infamous warhorse - known only as the Winter Stallion. There is something familiar in his eyes, something that begs for help, and after freeing him from Hydra he decides to save him, beginning the long journey of winning his trust. The Winter Stallion is wild and fearful from abuse and more intelligent than any horse he’s ever met, but as their relationship flourishes Steve is unaware of the dark secret that lays beneath – a curse that turned man into beast. For the Winter Stallion, who remembers nothing of his past, it will take the kindness of humans to mend his heart, but much more to unearth his true identity. For maybe, just maybe, Steve isn’t such a stranger after all.

1980′s AU, Veteran Bucky | 34K | Explicit
~
Vietnam vet Bucky is just trying to get a hot meal, and maybe a job, in the small town of Hope, but the local law enforcement has other ideas. When their brutality triggers a flashback, Bucky snaps and escapes from their custody. Hunted, exhausted, injured, he finds shelter for the night next to a cabin in the middle of the woods. He means to be long gone before the cabin’s occupant awakes. Things don’t turn out quite the way he expected.
~
This story was fantastic and the art was really beautiful!

Literally should have been tony stark as the president and peter as the unofficial first kid. The Falcon and Winter solider are his bodyguards so no one figures out he’s Spider-Man.

political animals - @spacerenegades Okay, so the real problem is that you shouldn’t fuck your arch-rival, political enemy, and the person you loathe the most in the world where you work. Or like, at least, you shouldn’t keep doing that. But okay, the thing that Descartes or whoever didn’t know was that Steve really tries, but Bucky Barnes has a mouth that should probably constitute an eighth sin or something. Jesus fucking Christ, Sam’s going to kill him. *** Couldn’t help myself, just had to make a mood board for this outstanding Stucky AU. Seriously, drop everything and go read this amazing fic by crinklefries, Deisderium, you won’t regret it.

Fantasy AU | 37K | Teen
~
Like he’d been waiting for his cue, a tall, dark-haired man appeared behind the jailer. He wore a fighter’s leathers, all in black, with a long sword peeking over one shoulder. His eyes were a complicated grey, flecks of blue giving them richness, but they were…empty.
Steve fought not to recoil from the blankness, letting his gaze flick to the bird perched on his other shoulder. It was some kind of hunting bird, maybe a falcon or a hawk, no hood or jesses, and it mantled, staring down at Steve like he was a mouse it was considering for dinner.
They were something from a legend or a nightmare and they were here for Steve.
~
That was a really great story, I really enjoyed reading it! @leveragehunters really has a talent for fantasy stories!

My Stucky Fics Masterlist
Like the title says, this isn’t a rec list, it’s more an inventory of my Stucky fics for me to keep on Tumblr - a masterlist if you will. It will be updated accordingly when and if I remember lol
That Moment Divine     
Word count: 61k Rating: Explicit Summary: “‘S okay. It don’t have to mean nothing,” Bucky said, trying to convince himself as much as Steve. “‘S just rutting. Just a bit of rutting.” 
His lips were so dry, his mouth too, and his throat, but the rest of his body felt like hot languid liquid was flowing through it. Steve swallowed, licked his lips. Maybe Steve’s mouth was dry too?
One hot summer, when Bucky and Steve are fifteen, the line between their friendship and something new that Bucky can’t quite name blurs. It is only years later that the line disappears completely and Bucky can finally put a name to that something.
Tags: Angst, Angst with a Happy Ending, 1930s/40s Brooklyn, Internalized Homophobia, Sexual Content
Paint Brushes, Suspenders, and One (1) Frog                              
Word count: 14k with AMAZING embedded art by @jayscrawls !!! Rating: Teen and up Summary: Follow Steve Rogers as he navigates student life at Marvel Art Academy. Watch him suffer through Banner’s boring classes, Loki’s disturbing lessons and Danvers’s eccentric pedagogical approaches, all while dealing with his attraction to the newest asset to the student body: one hipster Bucky Barnes.
Tags: Humor, Punk Steve Rogers, Hipster Bucky Barnes, Artists Steve and Bucky, Art School
The Path to Heaven Is Paved With Fucks                             
Word count: 17k  Rating: Explicit Summary: Steve Rogers has a filthy mouth—it’s just a fact. “Language” and “watch your mouth” is something he hears on the daily. Too bad it didn’t help in the past and it doesn’t help now.
tldr; Steve cusses his way through decades.
Tags: Humor, Angst, Pining, Sexual content, Howling Commandos, Avengers
Isn’t It Funny (How It Doesn’t Really Make Me Laugh)                           
Word count: 3.5k  Rating: Explicit Summary: Steve’s ma wasn’t home for the night. She told the boys to stay in. It was too cold to go out, she’d said, and made them promise to stay inside. Bored out of their minds, they found themselves elbows deep in her wardrobe. When Steve pulled out some ladies’ underwear from the drawer Bucky urged him to put it on, laughing.
He doesn’t feel much like laughing now.
Tags: Smut fic, Lingerie, Pre-War, 1930s, Porn with Feelings
It Was Always True                         
Word count: 700 words  Rating: General  Summary: On the 9th day after Endgame, the sad fangirl wrote a sad fic: Bucky’s angsty thoughts when Steve leaves to return back the stones.
Tags: Endgame Compliant, Angst!!!, Unrequited Love

Frick guys
Today I learned that teenagers actually should be geting 10-12 hours sleep minimum, sleep deprivation is linked to heart disease, going to classes at 8am for teens is like going to work at 4am for adults, and early birds and night owls is an evolutionary tactic to make sure there's someone awake on watch always. Anyways the American education system is trash as always babes. Self care is biting off the head of the monopoly guy (evil capitalist overlord) and dancing on his grave.
