*Explicit*
A modern retelling of the myth "Pygmalion & Galatea." Steve is a veteran who goes about sculpting as a form of therapy, only to fall in love with his statue and wish desperately it would come to life.

*Explicit*
“You love acting like you don't love it," Steve says, tugging Bucky’s jacket off his shoulders.

Rated T
Bucky Barnes has been a patron of Ricochet since it opened. Steve Rogers, the owner and head chef, has had a crush on him nearly as long.

*Explicit*
Steve has some time off, so he has to find some way to entertain himself.

...Later on, when Bucky is reflecting on it all, he’ll blame the early hour and his pre-caffeinated state for the fact that he didn’t realize. The soft noises falling from Steve’s lips, the very particular bunch and flex of very particular muscles…
Any other time of day, Bucky would have known straight away.
Any other time of day, and Bucky wouldn’t have even needed to be in the same room - he could be at the bodega down the street, and his nipples would inexplicably harden at the pluck of Steve’s distant arousal on the cosmic spiderweb.
But as it happens in the moment, it’s not until Steve’s head is falling back on a low moan that Bucky realizes exactly what it is he’s walked in on.

Rated M
Bucky's had his wifi name since forever, courtesy of his friend Clint thinking he's funny as shit, and he's pretty much forgotten about it- until he hears the enthusiastic shout of 'PENIS!' through the walls from his new next-door neighbor.

“I was three when I asked my mom how you fuck someone with a pineapple cactus,” Bucky says mildly. “They’ve been terrified of who I was going to be bonded with ever since I was born.”
Steve’s gaze flicks to the mark on Bucky’s wrist. “I’m never living it down, am I?”
Bucky laughs. Kisses him, and laughs. “Probably not. Though I don’t think a Brooklyn firefighter was ever a consideration when they were making lists of people who might threaten to shove spiked plantlife into various orifices.”
“They had lists?” Steve whimpers. Oh god, his future in-laws hate him already and have done for thirty years and that’s officially a record because who manages to do that?!

*Explicit*
Steve's undercover, but Bucky can't wait for his mission to wrap to have his man again.
