– People always assume that Bucky would be bad at technology
– But that boy was a science nerd and the world’s deadliest assassin
– You think Hydra didn’t train him to adapt and learn the newest technology with the snap of a finger? WRONG.
– Yes, Bucky understands how to use new tech
– What he doesn’t understand is how society has decided to use said technology
– No matter how many times you try to explain social media, Bucky just can’t wrap his mind around the culture
– “So people just take pictures of themselves and post them for everyone to see?” He would ask with an adorable frown
– “Yes. They’re called selfies. Not everyone does that. I’m not a fan, to be honest. It’s always felt a little narcissistic to me.”
– “I’ll say…” Bucky sighs.
– Bucky gets a smartphone because it was basically required of him
– But outside of work, he only uses it to communicate with you and Steve
– Bucky understands how people use their phones nowadays, but that doesn’t mean he conforms to it
– You love how he sends you text messages like he’s sending you handwritten letters. He even signs off with “Love, Bucky” at the end of every text even though he knows his name pops up when it’s sent to you.
– You find it adorable every time
– Bucky loves that he can send you photos whenever he wants. He’ll send you a picture of a cute dog he saw when he went on his morning run. Or he’ll send a picture of him and Steve together when he misses you. He also loves sending funny videos of Sam because he knows it annoys him. But more importantly, he knows it makes you laugh.
– Outside of technology, Bucky struggles with what is considered polite and rude today
– He’s astounded by the worlds lack of manners, especially from men
– You have to give him a very long talk about women’s rights and feminism and how it has changed the way a lot of things work. When you explain it to him from a female perspective, he understands it better and accepts it happily. But it also doesn’t stop him from opening your door, insisting on paying for certain things, and continuing little chivalrous acts.
– You have to learn to accept that some of the olds ways conditioned into him will never go away
– Bucky has a love/hate relationship with the internet
– He loves how he can look up anything he wants and learn about anything
– But he also despises how much hate can be spread on the internet, along with fake news and lies
– You warn him to never read the comments ANYWHERE
– But you’ve found him look at forums and boards about him a couple times.
– You had to talk him down and make him understand why it wasn’t good to look himself up
– He knew you were right
– Bucky is also amazed at the sexual liberation of the 21st century
– People used to judge others for how much sex others were having. Now people judge others for how little sex they’re having.
– This required another feminist lecture from Y/N. Once again, Bucky listened and kept an open mind.
– Bucky blushed when he heard blunt comments about people’s sex lives. But he’d never be as bashful as Steve was. Bucky got used to it quicker than Y/N expected. The blushing eventually disappeared and was replaced by an amused smirk.
– Overall, Bucky appreciates all the ways the world has improved since the 40s. Especially the improvement with how the world treats women, minorities, and foreigners. But he also has to acknowledge that marginalized groups were still not treated equally. There was still work to be done
– Don’t even get him started on the modern Nazis that have come out of the shadows.
– You cringe at the idea of one of them crossing Steve and Bucky’s path
– It had been made very clear early on that Bucky would be doing all of the cooking in your relationship
– And to be honest, you really didn’t mind
– Bucky was an amazing cook
– He and Steve always said how bad the food was back in the day compared to now
– There was no flavor or experimenting. No influences from other cultures or countries like now
– Bucky got sucked into the Food Network
– Then you showed him Pinterest and said how there were millions of food bloggers that shared their own recipes
– He kissed you because he was so excited about all the new recipes he could try
– While Steve got creative with drawing & painting, Bucky got creative in the kitchen
– Cooking was the perfect mixture of science and artistry
– And we all know that Bucky was a total science dork back in the day
– You got him a nice, vintage apron that you saw hipster baristas wearing
– Bucky looked so handsome in it with his hair in a bun
– You had to convince him to pull his hair back after he kept getting annoyed with it getting in his way
– At the beginning, you tried to be his sous chef
– That turned out to be a mistake
– “Y/N! You have to level out the measurement before you pour it in!”
– “I did what it said! One cup! A few sprinkles of flour isn’t going to make a difference, Buck.”
– With one look from him, you knew that you were messing with his hobby
– Plus, it was well-known amongst the Avengers that you had no practice is cooking
– But Bucky still loved having you in the kitchen when he cooked/baked
– You were usually sitting at the counter with either a cup of coffee or wine in your hand (depending on the time of day)
– He would ask you to put music on or say he needed a kiss for inspiration
– Sometimes you would just be quietly reading as he fluttered about the kitchen
– Bucky would ask you to try things and get your opinion
– He said you were “the most beautiful taste-tester a chef could ever have in their kitchen”
– His favorite person to cook for was obviously you
– “Bucky, you’re going to make me obese soon.” You complained. It was impossible to stop eating his food. And the kicked-puppy look he gave you when you refused something always broke your heart.
– “You’ll be beautiful no matter what size you are… so I don’t care.” He’d reply with a smirk.
– Eventually, you got fed up with being so helpless and asked Bucky to teach you a few things
– You knew you’d never be as talented as him in the kitchen. But you wanted to have a few tricks up your sleeve
– Your lessons always ended up becoming aggressive makeout sessions… sometimes more 😉
– For special occasions, Bucky always woke you up with breakfast in bed
– When Bucky couldn’t sleep because of nightmares, or just general insomnia, he would bake pastries for the team so they could wake up and have them for breakfast
– It also got his mind off of his nightmares
– When you asked him why he enjoyed cooking so much, he said, “It feels good to have something that has a definite beginning and end.” Then his eyes filled with love and he had a soft smile. “And it’s nice to see the people you love enjoying something you made.” He finished with a sweet kiss on your lips.
– You realize that most of Bucky’s history was filled with destroying. Cooking was filled with making.
– It made you happy to see Bucky find a hobby that relaxed him and brought him so much joy
From @sweetest-bug: “Would you be willing to write a drabble that is reader x Bucky where Bucky falls asleep next to the reader for some reason, and she wakes up, hearing him make noises. So she thinks it’s a bad dream at first but he starts moaning. Maybe smut persues, or it could be a cute and fluffy, awkward and embarrassed Bucky!”
A/N: I was definitely feeling cute and fluffy. Smut probably still pursues, just…after this XD
could I request something with reader being a teen avenger who took a liking to bucky (like favorite person/uncle) and when they realize he’s never been to mcdonalds takes him there (probably with Tony’s millionth credit card) and the team ends up panicking because Bucky is nowhere to be found, reader is no where, the Avengers and spidey take to the city only to find the pair happily eating greesy food hours later?
Hope you enjoy this one! I had fun writing it ehehe. The reader is half Asgardian and Midgardian. choose the gif for the wavy locks and we’re ignoring infinity war. PLATONIC BUCKY X READER.
“Are you sure you can drive?” Bucky asked nervously. You shot him a smile while holding up the hand with your wallet and keys to one of Tony’s many fancy cars.
“I did not hold a permit for nine months and get my license just to be doubted by you, Buchanan,” you snide as you click the button to unlock the car. As you opened the door to the car, you noticed that Bucky was looking down at the door handle.
“Uncle Bucky,” you whined. “I know how to drive, could you just please not doubt my skills? It makes me very insecure and sad when you do,” you pouted. Bucky laughed as he opened the door and climbed in.
“So where are you taking me at eleven o’clock at night, on a school night?” Bucky chuckled. You let out another whine as you laid your head on the steering wheel. “You know, your dad would murder me if he knew I was condoning you going out this late.”
– You know what Bucky needs more than a significant other? An amazing, fucking friend
– Yes, he has Steve
– But Steve puts pressure on Bucky to be the man he was back in the day
– Even though Steve doesn’t mean to, it happens
– So when Bucky meets Y/N and she wants nothing but to be his friend, Bucky melts
– Y/N helps Bucky understand all the culture he’s missed without overwhelming him
– She does it naturally, just letting him join when she’s watching her favorite shows or movies or asks to borrow a book after he sees her reading it
– In return, Bucky teaches her self-defense and little random things (auto mechanics, survival skills, how to drive stick, how to dance properly)
– The two of them become inseparable
– Steve sometimes gets a little jealous of the two of them, feeling slightly replaced
– But Sam pointed out how good of a sign it was that Bucky found a friend like Y/N in his new life
– To make things even better, Y/N always makes sure to invite Steve to everything
– But Steve learns to navigate when to accept and pass on the invitations
– Tony is the most guilty of making pressuring comments about how Bucky and Y/N should just date already
– That always earns him a glare from everyone, especially from Steve and Natasha
– But Y/N knows how to stick up for herself, “The idea that men and women cannot be friends is so outdated and makes you look small-minded, Tony. Which is pretty entertaining for someone that claims to be so smart. If men only see women as their mother or someplace to put their dick… it says a lot more about them than anything else.”
– It always shuts Tony up
– Bucky usually blushes at Y/N’s passionate and vulgar defense
– But Bucky also feels relieved that Y/N doesn’t want anything more than friendship
– A romantic relationship isn’t something he’s ready for. Honestly, he might never be ready for it
– But even if he was, Bucky and Y/N are friends. And sometimes, friendship is more powerful than any romantic relationship
– When it comes to Y/N’s love life, Bucky is always very judgemental about the boys
– It is not jealousy. It mostly comes from a place of disgust for how the majority of men treat women nowadays
– Picture a protective big brother, but a big brother who was from a dating culture that could not feel more foreign
– Sam had to explain dating trends and habits to Bucky after he was appalled Y/N’s date didn’t pick her up from her apartment or walk her home afterward
– Bucky’s high expectations for Y/N sometimes annoyed her, but she realized that maybe she had lowered her standards far too much
– She quickly realizes that she needs not only the stamp of approval from Bucky, before taking a relationship to the next level, but from basically all of the Avengers
– Y/N makes sure Bucky feels like he has a group of friends and family (even though he still had Steve and the Avengers)
– She invites him over to her family’s Thanksgiving every year, she makes him carry 5 pumpkins just for her to carve before Halloween, she even forces him to join her friends’ Secret Santa party
– In return, Bucky invites her to all the Avenger parties and gets dibs on 4th of July since it’s always Steve’s birthday party too
– Movie marathons happen at least once a month
– But the movie selection goes 50/50… so they switch off between Y/N’s favorites to Bucky’s (which are almost all from the 30s/40s until he gets thoroughly educated on modern cinema)
– Bucky realizes how lucky he is to have a best friend outside of the Avengers, who just sees him as the new Bucky
– She teases him, remains honest, and makes sure he never feels alone
– But more than anything, she makes him laugh at her ridiculous tendencies
– In return, Bucky protects her and reminds her of her worth
– Without realizing it, he proves that there are good men with kind hearts still in the world
Summary: It’s snowing outside and Bucky makes reader hot chocolate.
A/N: It’s really short I wrote it as I waited for my second flight. Im exhausted just from waiting.
It was snowing outside. You were sitting by the large window behind the couch leaning against the back of the couch surrounded with pillows and wrapped in a cozy blanket, with dimmed lights watching how snowflakes slowly fell from the sky.
You didn’t notice how someone came up next to you.
‘‘Hey Doll.’’ It was Bucky with a cup in hands.
You turned to face him “Hey, Bucky.’’
‘’I made you something.’‘ He said extending you the steaming cup in his hands. ‘‘It’s hot chocolate.’‘
Thanks, Bucky.’’ You smiled taking the cup.
He smiled back and turned to leave.
‘‘Hey you wanna join me?’‘ You asked shyly.
‘‘Only if you share with the blanket.’‘ He said smiling.
You chuckled and held side of the blanket for him. He smirked and joined you sitting by your side taking one end of the blanket and wrapping it around his shoulders.
You drank your drink and placed the empty mug on the floor.
‘’Thanks for the hot chocolate James, It was delicious.’’ You said pecking his cheek and resting your head on his shoulder. He smiled proudly and wrapped his hands around your shoulders, bringing you closer to him.
You two sat like that in comfortable silence Bucky lazily drawing patterns on your arm and enjoying the snowy city view.
‘‘It’s beautiful isn’t it?’’ You broke the silence.
‘’Very beautiful.’’ Bucky said.
You met his gaze in the window reflection and blushed, you looked at him.
‘‘Gourgous.’‘ He said looking in your eyes.
You blushed even more. Bucky noticed and smiled. his eyes darting from your eyes to your lips. He tucked few hair strands behind your ear with his free hand and slowly leaned in. You couldn’t believe this was happening.
When your lips met his you could feel the butterflies in your stomach. You had a big crush on this man for a few months and now he was kissing you. The kiss was slow. His lips felt softer than you ever imagined.You felt him smile against your lips and smiled back pulling away to look at him.
‘‘I wanted to do this for so long.’‘ He confessed.
‘‘Me too.’‘ You admitted and started kissing him again, arms resting on the back of his neck. Bucky’s arms slowly moved to your waist and tugged for you to straddle his lap deepening the kiss.
You heard a rustling somewhere in the room but didn’t pay any attention to it.
A low growl escaped Bucky’s lips as you tugged at his hair.
‘‘What the…OH MY GOD! Get a room you two!‘‘ Sam shouted noticing what was going on.
‘‘Sorry Sam!’‘ You giggled and hid in Bucky’s neck While Bucky just flipped Sam off and pulled you back in kiss.
This is my first attempt at writing and I don’t know what I’m doing. It’s probably shitty. But I wanted to try. I wrote it after a long and shitty day.
English is not my first language, sorry for any spelling mistakes.
Summary: The reader and Bucky have an interesting relationship, but as the reader becomes closer with Steve things get even more interesting

authors note: this is a high school stucky x reader au AND IT’S GONNA BE SO GOOD! Lmk if you wanna be tagged!
Rolling your eyes you pushed Bucky’s hand away, stopping it from sliding up your thigh. Laughing softly you explained, “Bucky we’re in the library…at school…surrounded by people”. Within seconds his hand was on you again.
“All you gotta do is keep quiet doll”. You shook your head, laughing at how juvenile Bucky could be at times. Turing to face him you saw the smirk on his face, he loved getting a reaction out of you.
Losing focus on him you noticed Steve walking by your table, “Hey Steve!”. He paused, looked around, and then finally looked at you both. His smile was sheepish, “Hey (y/n), hey Bucky”.
Bucky nodded his head but continued to let his hands roam, making you giggle and fidget in your seat. Eager to change topics you said, “Bucky you should see the designs Steve created in adobe illustrator for our project! Steve is insanely talented”.
Bucky was the first to notice the light blush on Steve’s cheeks, making him perk up a little bit. Steve shook his head, “Thanks (y/n), but they’re really nothing. I mean just look up a tutorial and-”.
Warnings: Nothing yet, unless you have a thing against fluff? Do you? Do you hate fluff?
Synopsis: After an accident outside of Avenger’s Tower Steve and Bucky take you inside to patch you up. Despite multiple warnings about the others about collecting strays, they might just want to keep you around.
A/N: Yes… I know… I already write a poly fic you guys all want me to get on with. Too bad okay. This one came to me today. So you get another. Not sure how many parts it will be. Definitely more than 3.
Can We Keep Her?
Things happened in slow motion. Normally when that happened Steve and Bucky could act quickly and change perceived outcomes. This time all they could do is watch everything unfold.
They saw you step up off the curb, a huge gift basket full of various sized chocolate eggs. Some just wrapped in clear cellophane to show off the intricate carvings. Others wrapped in bright foil. It was such a large basket that it obscured your view and you didn’t see the bike messenger screaming down the sidewalk.
