Summary
Steve Rogers is a painter who lives in Brooklyn, and he can’t sleep. He keeps himself busy with work, volunteering, and helping his elderly neighbour Marjorie walk her dog. The city is warm at this time of year, good for long walks at night, and yet Steve still can’t sleep.
When he can’t sleep, he’s often painting. People, buildings, skylines.
But sometimes Steve paints things he doesn’t understand, or recognise. Shapes, movement, colours...and there’s a man. A man keeps appearing in his paintings. And something’s strange about his arm.

Summary
As a conservator of rare oil paintings for The Met, Steve Rogers thinks of himself part scientist, part archaeologist, but hardly an artist in his own right. Only when he’s faced with the daunting task of restoring a frozen painting from a recently unearthed Nazi art hoard does he start to feel his passion for the craft return. Before he has a chance to understand what that means, Steve is transported to the 1940’s, where he meets both The Winter Soldier himself, and his own destiny.

Summary
After a successful series of procedures by Arnim Zola and a man named Strazds, Bucky is left with unexplained bleeding, back-pain, and concerning hormonal shifts. And a fear of doctors - which means he can live without an explanation for a little while longer.
But when Steve discovers the purpose and outcomes of Zola and Strazds' work, Bucky has no choice but to come clean about the medical issues he'd been having, and to face the staggering truth that his reproductive system has been successfully altered to sustain a pregnancy.
It's not how Steve had hoped to start a family, but he can work with it.

Summary
It’s called the Grey Space; a patch of skin marking you as blessed and the first sign you have a soulmate. Steve Rogers didn’t have one when he crashed into the ice. But he did when he woke up in the future. The second sign is the Sense, a sharing of one the senses to help soulmates find each other. Steve’s Sense, taste, is rare, but he loves a challenge and a soulmate is a gift from the Fates. Except instead of a blessing, it’s a curse, since his soulmate is a dick.
Bucky Barnes loves food and a homecooked meal is something he cherishes. When his Grey Space starts to itch, Bucky can’t help his excitement, since the Sense he and his soulmate share is taste. But not for long. Whoever he’s bound to has the blandest diet in the world, ignoring all Bucky’s messages. After weeks of putting up with tasteless food, Bucky decides to strike back.
WARNING: This story contains spicy food, the world’s smelliest fish, Steve sucking on socks, sexy selfies, lube bombs, the Furnadoes, trouble-making grandparents and Sam not being paid enough.
It also contains hot-chocolate, love between brothers, realizing found family is as vital as the one you were born with, and lots of laughter as Steve and Bucky find their happy ending.- Language:
