Day 5: Bucky/Tony - Knife Play

Day 5: Bucky/Tony - Knife Play

It’s not actually about that move. You know the one. The knife flip. One day Tony wakes up, and this particular resident super-soldier is less that and more… just a grumpy asshole with a decent sense of humor who leaves the toilet seat up and flat Coke all over the place. Tony’s got a compound full of those. And most of them have plenty of kick-ass moves. So, yes, Tony doesn’t exactly forget about that specific move—as if he ever could—but it doesn’t bother him either. By then, he also doesn’t expect it will ever—ever—be used on him.

Day 7: Bucky/Peter - Accidental Stimulation

There’s a sharp thud, and Peter’s spleen gets introduced to Bucky’s chin. He winces, twisting awkwardly in the most cramped fucking space this side of a coffin, trying to suck in a breath without knocking his head into something else. Oh, no, wait—there it is. His skull just kissed the ceiling. Or the floor. Honestly, fuck if he knows at this point. Perfect. “Ow,” he nudges Bucky away with zero success. Another shift, and, yup, Bucky’s knee is dangerously close to his crotch. Great. Fantastic. And while Peter, if he is honest with himself, would normally have no objections to Bucky’s body parts anywhere near his junk—current circumstances being what they are—a few more inches and they’re about to have a very intimate, very painful moment. “Dude,” Peter hisses. “Careful, I like my balls intact.”

Peter and Bucky go to the ISS. They don’t stay there very long. Rating: Explicit Wordcount: 9.3k

I die now.

SEBASTIAN STAN as BUCKY BARNES THUNDERBOLTS*

All jokes aside, the cat’s a good thing. Clint has some self-respect left and refuses to pine after a cat guy. “Are you actually being serious right now?” Nat elbows him in the gut as Clint stares at Bucky’s bleeding face, whimpering a little when he just spits out some blood and, with a scowl, waves off the medic who dares to approach him. “Why is this so hot?” Clint fans himself with his own t-shirt, stretching the cotton with each drag, and pines with the intensity and urgency of at least a hundred dying phone batteries.

[or]

Clint has a type. And his type is assholes.

Yeah, I normally don't jump on this train, but it high-key discourages me too.

If someone is not sure if they should comment, a smiley face or a thank you is all it takes for the writer to feel like they are not spending hours/days writing something they are tossing into a silent void.

Every comment, regardless of how short, matters so much.

Ask anyone who has posted if they are obsessively checking for feedback or for any type of affirmation for the first few days. Bet the answer is Yes.

Not to mention the fact that a few days later it's pretty much hopeless. Feels bad, man.

I could kiss every person who ever commented for me. Kisses for everyone.

This is why writers abandon stories. It’s not that we don’t love them, it’s because we don’t want to love them alone.

Tony isn’t in the habit of being late. No, really. He's never late for important things, since the last time he checked, the world’s still spinning. Except… there’s the small matter of him sometimes—rarely—being late for life. The real shit that kicks you in the balls when you’re not looking.

Exhibit A: Peter, currently sulking on a police bench, looking as if someone’s kicked his friendly neighborhood optimism straight in the nuts.

Exhibit B: some random asshole has his arm around him.
