I think this is amazing. This election will influence so many lives. So many lives have, in fact, already been influenced by a man who shows such disregard for others. Those who’ve not paid attention need to. These aren’t Fox made up nonsense. These are recorded words he has said. Words he has no guilt over saying. When did such horrible behavior become presidential material?

bucky, seeing Beard Steve™ for the first time:
I got depressed watching Cap1 so I decided to fix that.
Bucky has about had it with studying. He’s only been in the library for twenty minutes, but he’s done. There’s got to be a better way to spend a Saturday afternoon. He looks down at the text again, and his eyes start to cross. Maybe choosing Botany for his science requirement was a mistake. He should have gone with Intro to Forensics instead. Too bad it was full.
He’s about to give up and call it quits when he realizes that at some point, Steve Rogers has sat on the opposite side of the table from him, two chairs down. Steve is in Bucky’s English Lit class, and asks the most inane questions. It’d be annoying if it weren’t so adorable. And okay, Bucky has a bit of a crush on Steve with his lithe body, and beautiful face, and perfect teeth, and now Bucky’s sporting a half boner in the library. Great.
Steve gets up, leaving his stuff on the table, and heads into the stacks. Bucky suddenly has an idea. He pulls out a pack of Post-Its and scribbles “You’re cute” on it and quickly sticks it on the page of Steve’s book. He sits back down like nothing happened hiding the sticky notes under his books. He stretches out his elbow, resting his head in his hand. Now he waits.
When Steve comes back with a new book in his hand, he doesn’t notice the note at first. After he’s seated and pays attention to the book he left open is when he sees it. And blushes the most beautiful shade of red Bucky has ever seen. Steve’s cheeks heat as does his neck and Bucky wonders if the flush stretches down to his torso.
Steve picks his head up and looks around, obviously searching for the note writer. Bucky pretends to be engrossed in his botany text, even underlining some words he has no idea if they’re important or not. It’s just a way to deflect suspicion from himself. He watches sideways as Steve peels off the sticky note and places it in the front flap of his textbook.
Ten minutes pass and Bucky debates leaving, but then Steve gets up again, heading back into the rows of books. Bucky pulls out the sticky notes again and writes “Do you like guys? Nod yes or no.” He puts the note on Steve’s book and goes right back to where he was before.
When Steve comes back this time, he sees the note right away. He looks around the library before actually reading it, though. When he sits down and reads it, Bucky swears he blushes brighter than before. Bucky waits for it, but Steve comes through and nods yes. Bucky does a mental fist pump.
Bucky doesn’t have to wait long before Steve gets up once more. He scribbles “Top or Bottom” on a Post-It and sticks it on Steve’s book. When Steve comes back, he makes a covert thumbs down sign.
Steve gets up once more almost immediately and Bucky furiously scribbles “wanna get out of here?” on the Post-It and sticks it on the book. When Steve comes back this time, he lets out a breathy, “Yes.”
Bucky closes his book and shoves it in his backpack. He whispers, “Then let’s go,” and Steve looks over to him. The look of confusion on his face is adorable. Bucky slings his backpack over his shoulder. “You coming?”
Steve quickly does the same with his own books, leaving those he pulled from the stacks on the table. It’s probably a breach of some sort of library etiquette, but Bucky doesn’t have enough in him to care right now.
They make their way to the exit, Steve trailing just a half step behind Bucky. Once they’re out into the world, Steve stops short and asks, “Why me?”
Bucky slinks up to Steve and places his hand on Steve’s cheek. “Oh, sweetheart. You have no idea how beautiful you are, do you?” Steve blushes again and avoids Bucky’s gaze. “And I’m going to find out just how far down that blush goes.”
i need this so bad
Okay okay I just got an amazing idea
Nurse!Bucky getting a new patient in the hospital one day who’s been shipped back to New York from Afghanistan to get treated for his injuries
Bucky sitting at the nurses station and hearing his coworkers talk about the super hot military captain in room 107
Bucky taking over a Sharon’s first floor night shift when she’s sick and going in to room 107 only to find damnit, he’s really hot
Super cute military guy is also really high on morphine and spends the whole time Bucky’s changing his IV tube waxing poetic about Bucky’s eyes
Bucky does NOT find it cute, shut up Sharon
The next day Sharon’s wiggling her eyebrows at him and singing, A little birdy told me Captain Rogers has a crush on you
And Bucky’s all We’re not in high school nobody gets crushes anymore but he’s kinda all happy and melty inside
He very casually asks to switch shifts with Sharon, who tucks a condom into his pocket and pats his cheek
He goes into room 107 only for Captain Rogers to turn bright red and start apologizing for being so crass
Bucky definitely doesn’t think it’s endearing in the slightest, especially not the way Captain Rogers keeps licking his lips nervously
Captain Rogers eventually stops his babbling and introduces himself as Steve
And of course he’d have a name like Steve, with those all-American baby blues and himbo thing going on
Bucky may or may not have a weakness for cute, dumb blondes who are also built like a brick shithouse
Sharon, because she is amazing, manages to switch shifts with Bucky indefinitely, so Bucky always gets the first floor night shift
One day when Bucky comes in after dinner Steve shyly holds out a chocolate pudding cup he’d saved because Bucky had mentioned it was his favourite flavour and Bucky just melts
Bucky learning that Steve came in because of shrapnel in his leg that got septic and they couldn’t treat it at the medic hospital, and that when Steve was a kid he wanted to be a nurse too, because that was what his mom was
Steve in return learning that Bucky had his arm amputated at fifteen because of bone cancer and that he got a neat prosthetic in an experimental study conducted by Stark Industries
Steve’s bestie in the Army comes to visit when he’s in the States, and Sam Wilson seems to find Steve and Bucky’s relationship hilarious, and Bucky can’t figure out why
Steve always blushes when Bucky asks and refuses to answer
The day before Steve’s set to be discharged and go back to Afghanistan he kisses Bucky at the end of Bucky’s shift
Bucky can’t help blurting out I love you
Steve’s face softens and he kisses Bucky again. I love you too
Bucky definitely doesn’t spend the next few weeks sulking and watching tragic romance movies
Sharon keeps sending him when will my husband come back from war memes and she’s not nearly as funny as she thinks she is
Bucky never even got Steve’s number - how’s he supposed to ever see him again?
The day Bucky realises that Steve could die and he wouldn’t know about it he spends huddled under his blankets on his couch
Sharon finally realises that he’s really in love with an ex-patient and makes him pity cupcakes and sits through three whole Ryan Gosling movies with him
After a few months Bucky’s able to get back to not being a complete pining disaster
(that does not mean he stops jerking off to thoughts of Steve and then crying because he’ll never see Steve again)
Six months after Steve leaves Bucky hears that there’s a big blonde man chatting up some of the nurses at the main station, asking for him
Bucky’s not an idiot, he knows it isn’t going to be Steve, Steve’s probably still in Afghanistan oh my god it’s Steve
And Steve turns to him with a big grin on his face and a bunch of roses in his hand and says
“I was here about six months ago and I might have fallen in love with my nurse. He’s about six foot, long brown hair, an ass you could bounce a quarter off. I just got back from Afghanistan, you know, and it was my last tour, and I really wanna treat this fella right, and I have a reservation for 6:30 at that nice Italian restaurant down on 7th avenue that he said he liked. You haven’t seen him, have you?”
And Bucky kinda bursts into tears and kisses Steve all over his stupid face
