Lux Brumalis: "The light of winter"/"Winter's light." After defeating the Flag Smashers and conquering his inner demons, Bucky is trying to live a quiet life in New York City. While being Cap's sidekick has brought him (mostly unwanted) fame and attention, Bucky is learning that fame is difficult and scary. It also doesn't pay the bills, and he needs a roommate. So, he puts out an ad on Craigslist hoping for someone who isn't a complete weirdo. After many unsuccessful candidates, he finally stumbles across Charlotte, a PhD student who is looking for a fresh start after her failed engagement as she recovers from the Blip. Feelings begin to blossom between the two, but their lives are soon thrown into turmoil when a series of mysterious and vicious murders send New York City hurtling into a state of paranoia and fear. This will be a somewhat slow burn, with lots of tension, eventual strangers to friends, and friends to lovers with a lot of angst thrown into the mix. Set six months the events of TFATWS. HOWEVER, THIS FIC IS NOT CANON COMPLIANT with the MCU, the comics, or anything like that despite being set in canon. I'm going to mess with things, retcon things, and play with details because it's fun.

THE NURSE, THE ASSASSIN, AND THE LONE SURVIVOR ----- "Colonel?" "What's on your mind, Sergeant? Can't you see I'm busy?" "Care to go dancing?" Bucky's blue eyes sparkled playfully. She didn't have the heart to say no. ----- They met as young teenagers and somehow never parted ways. Neither of them expected for one dance to turn to something more. After leaving home and starting school, life takes a dramatic and heartbreaking turn. How could she have been so stupid to think she was special enough for someone like him? Belle sets off and joins the army as a nurse. When a new group of soldiers come in a few months later, she doesn't expect to see his face. There's still the same tension between them. The same tension that never left, even after being apart for years. She doesn't know if she'll ever be able to trust, let alone love him, again. ----- All she wanted was a normal life. A life where she wasn't used as a weapon to where she wasn't expected to fight for everything she wanted. The war ended years ago. They won the war, but there's always more to fight for. "This doesn't have to end in a fight, Buck." "It always ends in a fight." ----- They won, but at what cost? She's alone in this world. Alone in a world she hardly knows. The future is almost too much for her. Tipping her to the edge, making her fall, breaking her more than she ever thought was possible. "What's on your mind, Colonel?" "I want to go back until he's awake. I can't do this without him. He's everything to me. After everything I've done to him, I don't deserve him. He deserves better."
