    Summary

    James Buchanan Barnes had always been the way he was. He was knee deep. A no good, good for nothing, piece of shit bastard who would die alone in his piece of shit town.

    Good thing you were just the same.

    Summary

    "You barely heard your two best friends call your name and the people brushing past you muttering with irritation as you slowly turned your head. When you had finally made the 180, you found those blue eyes you knew so well already staring intently at you with the same narrowed gaze. Before your brain could react, your legs moved faster than any normal human’s should, turning on your heel and shoving forward. With maybe a fifteen foot plus reaction time head start, you thought you had a decent chance at getting away even though he had a several inch advantage on the stride comparison. You'd always been faster than him."

     

    An Ex-Hydra Agent who can manipulate metal, you were made for one purpose and one purpose only. Protect the the Asset. Now, you've been free for longer than he has, even though you're not entirely sure how. It's been years since you've started your façade of a normal life all the way across the country from the people you needed to avoid. But it all comes screeching to a halt because you made the mistake of a girls-night-out.

    Summary

    You are not a saint. You are not a hero. You’re barely even a living person, because living people have lives that extended beyond work and their apartment. But you’re not quite nobody, either. You’re too much, and not enough, and just in the shadows with a prayer to be saved that isn't genuine and secrets that mean nothing.

    They should’ve meant nothing.

    Yet here you are. In more danger than usual, being threatened by Hydra without knowing why, and being assigned a security detail you don’t want by Captain America.

    Bucky Barnes is good at his job. You’re not going to die.

    But you might end up strangling him before Hydra gets to either of you.

    Summary

    Sam Wilson knew you were a sucker for a tragic tale, and it didn't get much more tragic than Bucky Barnes, did it? So, you opened your home to an ex-assassin with PTSD and memory loss, because you'd be damned if you didn't try to help. Sometimes helping others helps you out, too. (started out as connected drabbles, sorta evolved into a full fic, so might seem a little disjointed at first)
