ZEITGEIST

/ˈtsītˌɡīst,ˈzītˌɡīst/

the defining spirit or mood of a particular period of history as shown by the ideas and beliefs of the time.

                                                          ~~~~~

Of thirty-two women captured by HYDRA in 1939, Lucille "Lucy" Opal Baker is chosen to become a weapon labeled "Decay", used to aid the Wehrmacht in World War II. After she receives a serum allowing her to see and change molecules, HYDRA deems Lucy ready to fight on the frontlines. 

But she refuses to kill.

After a year of captivity, Agent Elizabeth "Peggy" Carter, undercover as Nurse Elizabeth, rescues both Lucy and Dr. Erskine from Schmidt's clutches. They travel to Camp McCoy, where Lucy strikes up a friendship with James "Bucky" Buchanan Barnes while making a name for herself as an SSR agent.

When Project: Rebirth produces Captain America, HYDRA is suddenly at her heels, and Lucy realizes their spotlight is not only pointed at her, but also on James Barnes. 

Suddenly, Lucy is very susceptible to compromise.

                                                          ~~~~~

{ excerpt }

"You mean that." She stated softly and James slowly tilted his head forwards.

Their lips touched- soft and sweet.

He gently pulled away after a few seconds.

"I mean every word I say, sweetheart, till the end of our days, and our world. Always." 

                                                           ~~~~~

in which an idiosyncratic woman's choice can save thousands, or kill millions.

THE PHOENIX ~ Bucky Barnes by voidsoundss

"Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned" In which Anastasia Hayes is made of fire and James Buchanan Barnes is like a moth drawn to the flame. [CAPTAIN AMERICA : THE WINTER SOLDIER - ???]

Cruel Fate | Bucky Barnes by ladyvillain01

James Buchanan Barnes: the Winter Soldier Annabelle Kane: Lady Death Two messed up former assassins face an even more messed up world. "maybe it's pretentious, convoluted, but the truth is, i've been thinking, it seems the devil's always winning"

Vanished {Pietro Maximoff} by theheedlessqueen

"What do you expect me to do? Click my fingers and teleport away." "...Yes?" Alessandra Esposito has never had much in life, never wanted much either. A happy family, a way to heal from her pain and maybe someone to love. None of that was ever easy to find, especially when you were an Avenger. Especially when forgiveness was the only thing you trusted in.
