Summary
Steve asks: “How do you move on?”
Sam’s eyebrows shoot skyward. He whistles air out from pursed lips. “Do you want the therapist answer or the real one?”
“Surprise me.”
“The truth is – you don’t get over it,” Sam says, his voice low. “Not when it’s that close to your soul. Not when he’s someone you built yourself up around. Maybe you fall in love again, maybe you don’t. It won’t feel the same. He’ll always be coming up in your peripheral.” As the bus pulls to a stop in front of them, Sam grips his shoulder. “But you still gotta keep living your life. For his memory, yeah. But mostly for yourself.”
***
Steve Rogers learns what it means to be a queer hero in a complicated modern age. He tries to move on from the pull of the past, and his lost loves, but fate rarely lets him catch a break.

Summary
Rumlow actually smiles and crackles “our puppet, like you,” his voice so quiet and the words so distorted that Barnes just barely makes them out. He tells himself that they’re just words, and they’re just words designed to elicit an emotional response. It’s been just two months; there’s nothing HYDRA could have done by now, to make those words true. Right?
A story of how far three people will go to bring Steve Rogers home -- and of how far HYDRA will go to bring home their Winter Soldier.

Assorted mostly self-contained snippets post-they're gonna send us to prison for jerks, aka an excuse to write whatever self-indulgent nonsense I feel like about undercover as a (formerly mustached) math teacher Bucky Barnes.

Summary
The Winter Soldier does not remember a time when he was not the Winter Soldier. He only remembers the Rules, the orders and the missions. As he works for the Americans, he watches and he learns. Slowly, the Americans become complacent and they start to make mistakes. Mistakes become habits, and soon the Soldier finds HYDRA’s control over him slipping. Eventually, he discovers the strength to make a decision. So he bides his time and waits for the perfect opportunity when a single choice could make a difference. That opportunity comes in the form of a trio of Director Fury’s most capable agents, and that choice ends up being to form an alliance to take down Project: Insight.
