    Summary

    Tony accidentally stumbles onto the fact that Steve isn't holding things together quite as well as he makes it look. As awkward as it is at first, Tony's been there, and he finds himself reaching out to him.

    But the more he tries to push past Steve's walls the more he realises just how deep his issues go. And they all seem to be pointing in one direction.

    Should he really be surprised to find SHIELD is at the root of it?

    Summary

    A bird trills somewhere in the distance. A truck downshifts on the highway. But mostly, there’s silence. Vast and indifferent. No shouting. No metal doors. No clatter of trays.

    He stands there on the shoulder of the road, the prison gates a yawning mouth at his back, and closes his eyes.

    He just breathes. In, out. The air tastes like freedom, and it’s terrifying.

    Or Bucky navigates life post-prison; Sam is there every step of the way

    After Steve returns, though they've made up, his relationship with Tony remains distant.

    Tony deals with that like any reasonable person would - with a lot of alcohol, pining, and The Sims.

    Summary

    Every month or so, there’s this recurring thought that runs through Sam’s head.

    This is your life now.

    Which is why, he thinks bleakly, it’s utterly fucking typical that as they’re investigating something weird and probably janky some civilian called in over on Rockaway Beach, Sam looks away one minute and when he looks back, Bucky is a tentacle monster.

    “Uh,” Sam says. “Dude. You.”

    Bucky - it’s still Bucky, Jesus Christ - waves a tentacle.
