Fics like Shield of the Clouds

“Every time I close my eyes, I’m remembering. Faces, voices. People I’ve killed.” Bucky’s voice comes muffled, meat and bone and thermal fabric between the words and Steve’s ears. And the words still land like blows. “I’m a Goddamn plague upon the Earth, Steve. I can’t hurt you again.” “You won’t. And Hydra won’t ever get near you again.” Steve says it like a spell, like a geas, like he’s gonna bend the fabric of the universe to his will. It’s a vow, binding as anything ever said in front of a priest. “I will raze the Goddamn Earth until Hydra ain’t so much as a Goddamn smear.” Bucky breathes out, slow and controlled. “I want to believe that.” Steve leans in and presses chapped lips to the centre of Bucky’s brow. “Believe me.” *** Nine months on the tundra. Nine months, in a world turning, churning, transformed. Nine months with the wolves. Steve and Bucky, in Greenland. The Winter Soldier was never permitted to sleep, but maybe Bucky Barnes can rest, here, at the edge of the world. Steve Rogers cannot conjure healing magic, but he can shift his shape, and that might be the next best thing. Arc Five in the Magic Pixie Dream Steve ‘verse.
