Summary
A year after the Winter Soldier failed his mission in DC, Bucky Barnes is doing his best to stay under the radar from both Hydra and Steve Rogers. His hope for a peaceful day-to-day life in limbo goes awry, however, when he meets Queens’ newest hero; a pure-hearted kid with a death wish and a ridiculous pair of red and blue pajamas.The last thing Steve expects when he finally tracks Bucky down is that, not only has the man been living in Queens all this time, right under his nose, but also that, in the two years since they last saw each other, Bucky somehow acquired a kid.Alternatively: How Peter Parker effectively fucks over Bucky Barnes, and also totally saves him.

2 months agoAwww! This is so sweet! They both need this. I love them. I can't wait to see more of this! Poor Bucky being so shook with Peter's healing abilities, thinking someone hurt Peter like they did Bucky. I saw something about foster care in the tags...ARE YOU GONNA DO SOMETHING TO AUNT MAY?

tiztiz
2 months agoThis is really great so far! Can't wait to read more and see where it goes!I love how you write these two interacting. I can totally see Bucky trying to be aloof and then totally caving in to this plucky kid, and Peter is adorable as he sees a potential mentor/friend in Bucky.

RoxyXKarkat
2 months agoI'm always down for fics involving Bucky being a dad! This is the best! I can't wait to see where this goes. By the way, is Peter homeless in this? For some reason that's what I though when reading this.

2 months agoOh christ, you have no idea how much I love you right now for writing this. Peter and Bucky interaction is one of the top things I trawl for and you wrote a story revolving primarily around them. God yes.

2 months agoTHIS IS SO FUCKING PURE I LITERALLY CANNOT STOP SCREAMING JUST *flails* everything abt this was so perfect???? tbh I was actually kinda surprised initially that Bucky is managing to lay so low (with a fucking metal arm lmao) and not like. raiding HYDRA safehouses and murdering as many HYDRA agents as he can.but him trying to earn an honest living is honestly so many feels like wow. shitty jobs not even up to minimum wage my heart just goes out to him bc honestly yeah that fucking sucks and it's like super late at night which might explain me being overly emotional but yeah, so many feels when he's doing his best and just suffering through it.and him just being all "damn it i hate this" while still saving Peter (Peter in pajamas and goggles poor babe) and Peter being super nervous and "please wait for me" and actually stalking Bucky back to his place somehow made me coo over bby!peter (honestly curious how Peter managed to do that tbh).and Bucky thinking about his apartment and "even though it’s gross, he’s strangely fond of it" felt so real and relatable honestly...Peter gushing ovre his hero tony stark and bucky's prosthetics and just "stupid, pajamas-wearing, shrimp of a walking death wish’s" BEING AN IDIOT BUT ALSO BEING SO FUCKING CUTE AND BUCKY TEASING HIM AND PETER NOT KNOWING HOW TO COOK PASTA LMFAObut also peter not commenting on bucky being dirtpoor was much appreciatedBUT PETER CUTTING HIMSELF omfg u stupid bby dont do that cut them one at a time and flat if u cant do it properly asfdlkjalsdf *flails* “Your fingers never should have been in the way of the knife in the first place,” Bucky chastises in a stern tone -> bucky is me lmao and his immedaite thought was "too risky to take this kid to the hospital himself" what a BABE he's so soft i love himthe parallels between peter and steve both being stupid idiot selfsacrificng tiny's is adorable and then bucky giving peter the tip on adrenaline just...*coos*THEYRE SO CUTE TOGETHRE IM SORRY IM SCREAMING JUST ITS SO PERFECT AND IM MAKING TEHSE WEIRD DEATH NOISESthere are just so many feels and they're so good for each other and peter is a fucking idiot for just trusting strange older men and showing up at their houses randomly but at the same time just...them bonding,,, them spending time together,,,, cherish ty for sharing <3
