Enemies. Survivors. Something else entirely.
She was supposed to be a ghost forgotten experiment of Hydra, buried and erased. Instead, she came back with fire in her veins, a vibranium chip in her neck, and the memory of the man who stares at her like she should mean something.
Now she's part of a reformed Avengers unit under S.W.O.R.D., forced to work alongside the one person she can't stand: Bucky Barnes.
The Winter Soldier.
He's cold, controlled and doesn't remember her. She's furious, unstable, and dangerous to trust. And yet, every glance feels like a memory he can't grasp. Every fight between them burns too close. HQ is already placing bets on whether they'll kill each other or something else entirely.
But when a lead surfaces that could unravel their pasts and expose the lies Hydra buried with them Mafer and Bucky must work together.
Even if it means confronting the truth neither of them are ready for.
Because sometimes fire remembers winter.
And sometimes enemies burn the brightest together.

Holding On | Bucky Barnes
It's been two months since Y/N returned to the Compound, but despite her best efforts, she can't seem to escape her trauma. Nightmares haunt her at night, while memories stalk her during the day; a never-ending cycle that she hopes she can smile her way through. She finds distraction in her busy schedule and a few quiet moments in-between, but no matter how hard she tries, she can't forget. And now that the world knows who she is, she likely never will. Some see her as a hero, others see her as a weapon. Y/N doesn't know which to believe-especially with the little control she feels she has over her life anymore. The journey to recovery is never easy, but Y/N thinks it may be impossible. *** [Part 2 of Reaching Out] [Bucky Barnes X Reader] [1st person POV] MAIN THEMES FROM PART 1: Y/N with powers, moving in with the Avengers, Bucky+Y/N romance, quick-burn, drama and trauma (of course), fluff on fluff on fluff. NOTES: Follows a timeline where Hydra is still active after 2014 (CA:WS), Avengers didn't break up after Civil War, and takes place ~one year after Bucky's return from Wakanda.Complete
Thunderbolts* || Bucky Barnes and Y/n
Y/n Smith and Bucky Barnes. There's something electric in the air when they're near-undeniable, undefined. Not corrosive, not quite. If anything, it's sharp, a challenge neither of them is willing to name. But in the chaos of missions that blur the line between redemption and necessity, one thing is certain: whatever this is, it refuses to be ignored.

"You'll see her at the meeting in a few minutes." "Do they fine you if you use more than fifteen words per sentence?" ... "I have no idea what you're talking about." "Oh, really? I could just call Sam and confirm, but I'm betting all this secrecy means you're working on something off the books." "Don't think there are any rules against it." "Then tell the group." "Who says they don't already know?" "Alright, let's test that theory." "Fine." "I was just about to go find John." I turn toward the door, and-bingo-he moves. Steps in front of me, stopping me in my tracks. "Explain." "You're even more annoying than I remember." "You're a delight too, Barnes." ____________________________ π₯ #thunderbolts 19/4/2025 π₯ #yelenabelova 24/9/2025Complete
Eclipse - Book 1 (Born at Dusk)
"We're not who you think we are. We're helping you." "I don't care." She turned the gun from Shuri and pressed the barrel beneath her chin and fired. To her, he was a ghost; to him, she was a stranger. There were no more super soldiers. It was a well known fact. But when Bucky retrieves a woman in cryostasis in an abandoned Hydra facility, he begins to wonder otherwise. She has a Vibranium spine, her history with Howard Stark and an oddly vague couple decades she refuses to depict. Kate Alden was a scientist, engineer, and the next protΓ©gΓ© of the 1950s until HYDRA deemed her necessary for their work. Being forced into Hydra's game, she is tasked with a nearly impossible mission: creating the Winter Soldier. After thirty years in cryostasis, the one person that Kate thought she'd never see again was the one who pulled her out. Bucky Barnes. The person she thought she'd loved. Except, he had no memory of her her existence. He had no idea that she'd brainwashed, tortured and manipulated him for decades. He'd changed, he was good, and he had absolutely no idea what she had done to him. And it had to stay that way.Complete

The Girl Beyond The Walls.
"If you want to keep a secret, you must also hide it from yourself". ~She is a beautiful, unsettling paradox. Her face is soft and symmetrical, with full lips and wide eyes that hint at a forgotten innocence. Yet her smile never quite reaches them, a phantom expression that seems rehearsed and out of place. There is a deep, unsettling stillness about her, as if she is a doll waiting for someone to wind her up. She moves with a lethal elegance, a dancer's grace that she weaponizes with practiced ease. Her voice, when she speaks, is unnaturally calm and even, devoid of the inflection that signals emotion. She is a woman of contradictions-a gentle face, a killer's soul; a still body, a restless mind; a blank slate on the surface, but a fractured, terrifying mosaic just below. ~He is no longer the Winter Soldier, but he isn't Bucky, either. He exists in a quiet, haunted space between two lives, the playful friend from Brooklyn now just a fading memory. The trauma of seventy years of manipulation is etched in his weary eyes and the instinctive way he still handles his metal arm. Though free, he remains lost, a ghost haunting his own life, constantly battling fragments of his violent past while clinging to the fragile trust he has in Steve. ~Saved by the Avengers, the girl was a weapon without a master, lashing out at her rescuers. Steve saw a ghost of Bucky in her eyes and kept his distance, his compassion warring with his distrust. For weeks, their relationship was a minefield of animosity, her resentment fueled by his cautious pity. The thaw was slow, starting during training and quiet moments of shared trauma. Eventually, their hatred softened into a deep, unspoken understanding, two broken soldiers finding a fragile kind of healing together.
