After time in Wakanda, Bucky Barnes returns to the Avengers Compound - a place full of familiar faces, but nothing that feels like home. He's not looking for redemption. He just wants to keep his head down, follow the rules, and stay in control. But Elizabeth Carter, the team doctor with a sharp tongue and no time for ghosts, has other ideas. What happens when the person you least expect becomes the only one who sees through the silence? He's not a soldier anymore. He's not a weapon. Bucky just wants to be... something human.
