Bucky always thought the first thing he would do with his freedom is go find Steve. He quickly realizes that he isn't who Steve thinks he is anymore. Steve wants his best friend from the 40s. Loud, outgoing, adventurous, and a big flirt, not the screwed up and the broken person he is today. After the events of the Winter Soldier Bucky moves to a farm in small-town Wisconsin. He has 20 acres, chickens, a garden, and four big plum trees. He starts to feel at home in this small community.
OR Bucky recovers until he is more or less the person that he thinks Steve wants him to be.

The Long Nights of Winter - An Alternative Bucky Barnes Story
Afghan War army veteran Bucky Barnes has spent the last nine years working as a private investigator, the only job he could get after being found responsible for the deaths of two young boys in Afghanistan. After a year in military prison and a dishonourable discharge he struggled to sustain himself with the odd case tracking a cheating spouse or looking for a lost pet. When his friend, Detective Steve Rogers of the NYPD, asks him to protect Natalie Madison, who witnessed the death of her twin sister at the hands of her boyfriend, he jumps at the chance to show he's up for the job. The two discover evidence of a conspiracy that reached into the highest level of the American military during the Afghan war and still continues to the present day. As they try to uncover the truth that could also overturn Bucky's conviction, betrayals expose them to danger as the boyfriend, Brock Rumlow, and his associates hunt them down. Despite his attempts to keep it professional with his client, Bucky and Natalie find themselves becoming emotionally involved. This is an original story in an alternate universe using MCU characters in non-MCU roles. All original characters are my own creations. This story has moments of PTSD, violence, and sexuality but focuses on the realities of the relationship between Bucky and Natalie.Complete
𝒇𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒅𝒔| 18+ {Bucky Barnes}
{Formerly named Țuică} If you asked Dr. Aurora "Rori" Harris whether she was your average psychologist, she'd probably laugh and say, "Absolutely yes!" She worked long hours, carried her patients' burdens home with her most nights, and went above and beyond for anyone she cared about. That was just who she was. But the truth? Rori was far from average. She had a particular set of gifts-skills that even she didn't fully understand. Skills that would make her indispensable when Sam Wilson and Captain America came calling, asking her to track down Steve's childhood friend, James Buchanan Barnes... aka Bucky, the Winter Soldier. She can't say no. She wants to help. But as she dives deeper into the shadows of Bucky's fractured world, one question hangs over her: Will she keep her promise to Steve and Sam? Will she reveal Bucky's location, or will she find herself dangerously drawn to the broken man behind the legend?Complete

Trauma
Bucky is determined to get himself a dog. And his boyfriend Steve agrees that a dog would really help his friend to overcome his anxiety attacks and his PTSD (not that Bucky would ever admit suffering from any mental disease). But the dog Bucky chooses to take in may not be suitable for him. They say that two damaged souls may heal each other but sometimes you need more than just a good friend to heal. Sometime friendship isn't enough after all. Sometimes you need a professional to help you. This story does contain some things that may trigger people. Am not gonna lie it is pretty sad and maybe disturbing. Animals die in this book. Don't ever get a traumatised dog if you are not experienced at all! It will neither make you, nor the dog happy. Rescuing dogs is definitely something that should be supported but not everyone is up for the challenge. None of these characters belong to me (well, yes, the dog does). They are all from the MARVEL universe.Complete
