If you'd told Mel years ago that she'd end up doing PR for a government-run team of reformed assassins and chaotic vigilantes, she would've laughed in your face. Now? She's running crisis control for the Thunderbolts*
With the unofficial job title of glorified babysitter with a headset, juggling a stack of NDAs, a definitely not romantic situation with the Winter Soldier, and a schedule full of damage she didn't cause but still has to clean up...she's got her work cut out for her.
No powers, No peace, just damage control
BUCKY BARNES X MELISSA GOLD
(Mel is basically y/n and it would be a CRIME not to write about her)

SHADOWBORNE | THUNDERBOLTS | ROBERT REYNOLDS
Rani Barnes, the daughter of Bucky Barnes, was raised in the shadows of Hydra-trained to hunt, obey, and survive. Now 19 and rescued from that life, she's thrown into a quiet existence she doesn't understand, living with a father still grieving the loss of his best friend and trying-failing-to be something like a dad. Haunted by her past and hollowed by the silence of peacetime, Rani feels trapped in a luxurious house that feels more like a cage. When a mysterious woman named Valentina Allegra de Fontaine approaches Rani on a rainy night, offering purpose, danger, and payment-everything Rani was born to crave-the temptation becomes impossible to resist. After one final argument with her father, she walks away, card in hand, and makes the call. This is the story of a girl bred for war, trying to make sense of freedom, and a father desperate to save her before the shadows claim her again. Thunderbolts* spoilers. A Bob x Rani au
Kinetic (Bucky Barnes)
Seraphina "Sera" Rogers, Steve Rogers' long-lost sister, was discovered during the Fall of HYDRA and SHIELD. But she wasn't there as his sister, she was there as his attacker. In her eyes then, he was her mission, along with the Winter Soldier. Neither of them remembered him. Neither of them remembered themselves. But time, healing, and fragments of the past have a way of resurfacing. In the years following the Blip, Sera began to recover memories, her life before HYDRA, her brother, and perhaps most painfully, her love for Bucky Barnes, feelings that never died, only buried deep beneath years of torture and programming. Unable to face them, and afraid of what they meant, Sera vanished without a trace. Now, in 2027, she works under Valentina Allegra De Fontaine, dangerous, loyal only to herself, and assigned one final mission. But when she's forced to join the very man she's been running from, old wounds reopen, old feelings ignite, and the line between weapon and woman begins to blur. Because Sera Rogers was never just Steve's sister. She was the girl who loved Bucky before the war. And maybe, just maybe, they can get the redemption neither of them believes they deserve. Follows the events of Thunderbolts*Complete

Buried Proof (Bucky Barnes x F!Reader)
You are a legend in the world of paleontology-part scientist, part treasure hunter, and mostly off the grid. You spend most of your days unearthing fossils and dodging snakebites with a grin, never answering your phone and barely checking your email. But they need an expert when a New Avengers mission uncovers something ancient and possibly alien buried beneath the Earth's surface. Luckily, Joaquin Torres knows just the woman. And you are his older sister. Brilliant, stunning, and stubborn as hell. You are the perfect mix of nerd and wit. The jungle was dangerous. The mission might be worse. But working side by side with Bucky Barnes? That could be fatal. To your focus. To your pride. And maybe, just maybe... to your heart. This fic is written with ChatGPT. I came up with the storyline and each prompt. I just watched Jurassic World Rebirth and wanted a female version of Dr. Henry Loomis. This is a fun, silly Marvel fic that combines Jurassic World and Marvel. (All characters besides yourself are Marvel, not Jurassic World, unless mentioned as movies.)Complete
