Summary
Bucky’s been at the Avengers Tower for three weeks before he finally gives in to Steve’s gentle coaxing and Stark’s cheerful waving of fistfuls of circuits, and lets them scan the arm.It doesn’t go well.

Just nowI loved this so much. It was funny, sweet, sexy, heart wrenching -- all at the same time. It was absolutely wonderful. Thank you for sharing it.

Just nowI think my favourite part is how amidst all the sweetness you get flashes of true Winter Soldier: recon from the fridge, Jarvis routinely assuring him about dangerous subroutines and that beautiful meandering thought about the cold. It makes the sweetness (especially given Steve's obvious awareness of Bucky's issues) so much more.

Just nowI don't even have words for how much I'm loving this. You have all the words. And you have made them into this. Aaaah! <3

Just nowSweet, steamy and you made me LOL with Tony's comments.

Just nowYou know, I'm going to admit it: I did not have terribly high expectations for this when I started reading it. I was wrong. Your dialogue for pumped-up-on-drugs!Bucky is absolutely perfect. One if the best 1930s Brooklyn Bucky I've read. This turned out to be really sweet and funny; your Stark is also well-written and totally in-character. Ugh, so many happy feels with this one. Kudos, girl.

Just nowOh my, this was SO HOT and HILARIOUS, I think I died laughing at Tony trying work while supersoldier shenanigans were going on. Somewhere Pepper is feeling vindicated by all the times she'd walked in on Tony and/or had to see off Tony's dates. I love the way you wrote high!Bucky, his stream-of-consciousness was both funny and heartbreaking and unbearably sweet. He so clearly adores Steve. A great and highly enjoyable fic!

Just now"gives his exposed cock a sloppy, sassy salute of his own because hey there, Captain" & your use of "bupkins" make you magical.

Just nowSo cute and I love the way you convey emotions. You can really feel Bucky going from panicked and tense to all happy and cuddly.

Just nowLAAAUUUUREENNNN! WORST HUMAN BEING IN THE HISTORY OF ALWAYS. I simultaneously love and hate you right now. This was soooo fucking hot, but also beautiful and heartbreaking and???? HOW DID YOU DO THAT. The sappy little shit. lmaooooo that's rich coming from you Bucky "bABY DOLL UR SO PRETTY UR A PEACH ILYSM UR THE PERFECTEST PLS DON'T EVER LEAVE ME I MIGHT DIE"maaan, this was so perfect. I mean Tony. It takes a lot to make that dude uncomfortable. I THOUGHT STEVE WAS A VIRGIN HAHAHA IS2G. The Avengers sheets. Thor talking about the healing of warriors. <3 such a precious, always knowing the right thing to say. NAT AND CLINT IN THEIR FOXYYYY~ PYJAMAS WITH THEIR WEAPONS AND ALSO HOW DID BUCKY GET ONTO THE FRIDGE I REQUIRE EXPLANATIONS I TOTALLY INCOHERENT HAHA FEELS

Just nowOh my god, this was amazing! Bucky calling Steve all the sweetest pet names and baby doll just made me weak in my knees. Love love love!!!
PhoenixGFawkes
Just nowAwww, this was adorable, hilarious and hot!
TokiMirage
Just nowOMG the sweet talker Bucky while TONY WAS DEFUSING HIS ARM HOLY FUCK YOURE A GENIUS!!!
lquacker
Just nowBabeeeeeee, you already know that I think this is amazing, and reading it once more has done nothing but confirm what I already knew. You've got the touch with these two, with the banter and tenderness and holy shit was it super hot! Hot and hilarious, A+ on everything this fic chooses to be. The dialogue was so snappy, and it's always nice to see Bucky as the Bucky before the war, the charming little jerk who knew he had Steve wrapped around his finger and vice versa. This will be my ultimate go-to fic when I'm feeling down, because it's so lighthearted and wonderful, and I'm sorry for not commenting yesterday when it was first posted, but it's July 4th and there's nothing more patriotic than reading about Bucky and Steve getting down on America's birthday so hopefully that makes up for me being a jerk lol. Once again, this fic was awesome and I hope you'll consider writing more fic in this fandom. If you do, you'll know where to find me if you ever need to talk things out! ;) <3333

Just nowI LOVED THIS. Nurse Steve! Adorable Bucky overwhelmed by how much he adores Steve! Tony's life being very difficult! nuclear disarmament I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE AND SHAME ON YOU
Resonant
Just nowI have a pretty major public-sex squick, and I read this through half-closed eyes, grimacing, the first time. And then I came back and read it again. Like four times. Because it's so hot and heart-squeezy and sweet. (And it opens out into so many other glimpses of other stories -- what Bucky's remembering, what Jane and Darcy are remembering!) And mostly to see Bucky come out of the darkness and courageously decline to go back in.

Just nowI smiled like an idiot through all of this. Hell, I missed my bus just to finish it. Thank you, and thank you for all of Bucky's wasted sweet talk because jesus - that does me in. A wonderful read!
debwalsh
Just nowWow, this was just wonderful. Interesting take that the arm itself is a danger and boobytrapped by Hydra. I'm with you on the tangled mess of connections - my own headcanon is that the connections were made crudely, and the pain is part of how Hydra controls the Asset.But this, the stripping away of inhibition, the gradual release of Bucky' s self-loathing, the end of his self-flagellation in favor of letting himself be loved, letting Steve let go ... oh, my, yes. And doing it within inches of Tony? Hah! Best image ever!Loved this. And now I'm going to go see what else you've written because you pull off great characterizations, deft plot, and wonderful style!

Just nowokay, i really loved ALL of this, but this:"[Steve] ... looking up at Bucky with his wet red mouth and gold lashes and blue eyes. Primary, patriotic. Beautiful."the imagery is fantastic. your Bucky headspace is great - i like the difference between pre and post, as we begin to see feelings!Bucky in addition to soldier!Bucky. & i loved Tony :D (murderously hot: so a thing). a delight!
TealBlueSky
Just nowIt's so rare to read such sweet words like that. I think I was choking half the time just through those moments

Just nowOh wow that was beautifully written the part where Bucky was all "hey doll" was really embarrassing but also really cute and I just wow thanks love
Zolac_no_Miko
Just nowAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUGGHHH THIS FEELS LIKE SUNSHINE AND PUPPIES AND KITTENS AND RAINBOWSBUCKYYYYYYYYYYYAhahahaha poor Tony oh my god XD
Just_Write
Just nowHahahaha I can't get over the mental image of Stark desperately trying to fix Bucky's arm while the two of them are THIS CLOSE to having sex beside him. Talk about major MAJOR third-wheeling. IF ANYONE EVER DOES FANART OF THAT SCENE FOR YOU....please send out a notification or message me or something? I think it'd be adorable XDBucky high, with his attention only on Steve, is the most adorable babbler EVER :D
myownghost
Just nowSmooooth talker, wow. I enjoyed this enormously! (The nurse's cap slays me.)
johanirae
Just nowThis is the best, hottest and sweetest fic ever, I love it!!!
tigriswolf
Just nowOh, gosh, Bucky. This is so lovely.
chaya
Just now*makes little daisy-chain flower crowns and places them all on this fic*

Just now“You have no idea how many syllables that man is capable of,” FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF this fic is gold start to finish but that line ALWAYS makes me laugh
wintergirl
Just nowThis whole story was so great! Humorous and sexy, but a little sad in a good way. :) This line is amazing: “You have no idea how many syllables that man is capable of,” Tony hisses.
notallbees
Just nowAugh augh this is one of the best things ever <3
idrilka
Just nowSo you know I'd read that before, but now I read it again, and it's just as excellent and just as hot the second time around. And, as I said before, you have your Bucky voice DOWN. SO JEALOUS OF YOUR DIALOGUES. (And, gotta say, your Tony is hilarious and absolutely spot on.)But, Jesus, did I mention how hot that was? Because it was. So very hot.
GlitteryV
Just nowI've kept this fic open in a tab because, even after reading this wonderful fic twice, I find myself unable to be precise as to why I've enjoyed it so much. Reading it was a superb sensory experience; your prose is tremendously evocative.FWIW, I'm not a fan (or hater) of stories in which half of the pairing is intoxicated. However, knowing that you'd written this fic was reassuring enough that I'd like it. ;)One of the things I really liked was how you kept a steady balance when it came to the dubcon. I've come across many an example where the author seems unsure about where's the line that divides dub con from noncon. It was a very hot story and also funny. Thank you for sharing it with us. ^_^
BlueRose03
Just nowI absolutely love this! More?? =)
Antiquesdoll
Just nowOMG Bucky's brain is the cutest thing ever - "wet cat face" - I died laughing. This is just amazing~And poor Tony! Bucky has definitely GOT a lot of things~I was so happy to read it and so sad when it ended, best wishes for your future writing!
Seramarias
Just nowOh my god, drugged!Bucky has the absolute best bad lines. That was wonderful. And really, really funny.
Josselin
Just nowThis was so enjoyable! I think my favorite part was Tony telling the story at the end. :) Thanks for sharing!

Just nowUgh I love the way Bucky sweet talks Steve, esp imagining it in a heavy Brooklyn accent it's so hot omg. & Bucky calling Steve baby doll? Favourite thing ever.
Rishtalak
Just nowThis made me smile the entire time I was reading it.
Persephone7
Just nowI love this. I think I've read it on a nearly weekly basis since I found it. I suck at articulating, but it's the perfect combination of everything. And I adore drunk/high Bucky. I like to imagine that's the way he was before the war.
SomeoneSneaky
Just nowAs delicious as this entire fic is, Tony's reaction to the whole thing is my favorite part.
PurpleYoongi94
Just nowOh man I cannot describe how much I love this fic. Your dialogue and characterizations are absolute perfection and had me grinning like an idiot throughout the entire story. So funny and so heart-wrenchingly sweet, all of Bucky's endearments just about made me melt. AND- question- would you mind horribly if I were to make a podfic of your story?
Ana_Sedai
Just nowThis was incredibly sweet, and sad, and funny, and embarrassing. You know, it's love.
Rayxclockwork
Just nowWow. Just.. wow.There was nothing I didn't love about this. Bucky's definitely still got it. xD
astro599
Just nowSO GOOD IN SO MANY WAYS. I laughed and cried at the same time! Also, l really want a sequel where Bruce has to take that medicine and does end up humping the statue of liberty, lol.
transdreamsicle
Just nowi don't normally re-read fic, but i had to read this one again. tony's reactions were so fucking great, and i loved bucky's dirty talk and steve being steve. ugh it's amazing.
