"'til Brooklyn sinks." She entered the world in the same breath as a legend-Stella Grace Rogers, twin sister to Captain America. A fighter, a flame, laughter caught in her lungs and bruises etched into her knuckles. Long before the world christened her Americana, she was only Brooklyn's brightest spark-Bucky Barnes' whole, unshakable heart. Bucky was Steve's friend first. Stella's second. But somewhere between the teasing glances and the stolen dances, he fell-hard, helpless-for the girl with a golden heart and fire burning through her bones. They were young. They were in love. They were engaged to be married. And then the war split everything wide open. Seventy years later, history remembers her as Americana: the woman with the vibranium liberty ring, the unyielding icon, a legacy carved in blood and sacrifice. But behind the title remains the girl who never stopped grieving the boy with the metal arm-the boy who once swore her forever. She burned bright. He was forged into a weapon. And now, as the past rises again from the ice, all that endures is the love that time could never bury. Some ghosts wear dog tags. Some wear diamond rings. -Set during Captain America: The First Avenger, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, and some Avengers: Endgame -long book, buckle up for the ride. #1 in jamesbuchananbarnes 11.5.25 #1 in thewintersoldier 11.6.25 #1 in original character 9.24.25 #1 in marvelfanfic 12.7.25 #2 in buckybarnes 12.1.25 #2 in captianamerica 10.13.25 #3 in captainamerica 10.11.25 #4 in captainamerica 11.6.25 #5 in jamesbuchananbarnes 11.2.25

In 1942, Dr. Erskine launched Project Rebirth and created Captain America. That same year, Bucky Barnes fell into the hands of Hydra, their experiments leaving scars that wouldn't surface for years. But the story doesn't start there. In 1937, Erskine's first miracle wasn't a soldier-it was his daughter. ────── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ────── Celia and Bucky should have died on that train, lost to the snow and silence. Instead, Hydra remade them into weapons. Steve should have gone down with the Valkyrie, a soldier's sacrifice buried beneath the Atlantic. Instead, the world woke him as a hero. Now the three of them are bound by the pull of something greater. Caught in each other's orbit, colliding again and again, in defiance of time itself. Bucky Barnes/OC CA:TFA - AVENGER:AOU.

But what happens when Raven's history begins to stir trouble seven decades down the road? ----- bucky barnes x oc | completed 16 January 2025
