Bucky, Seeing Beard Steve™ For The First Time:

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

This Tik Tok that just came across my FYP: “Will y’all authors stop using the word ‘cock’?? There’s so many other words!!”

Ma’am, respectfully, that is the least objectionable / most palatable word for that particular reproductive organ

and also respectfully, no, I will not stop 😂

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?

Steve loves to lay his head on Buckys lap and touch his chin dimple.

This habit almost got them court-martialed once but that's a different story

YES! thank you so much for this wonderful headcanon, nonnie 💫 have a ficlet

⭐⭐⭐ The first time Steve does it, he’s nineteen and drunk on Jameson. 

Bucky had managed to sneak a bottle from his father’s cabinet and brought it over to their apartment. Steve only needs three sips to get dizzy.

He tells Bucky as much, when the room starts spinning around him. Bucky laughs and pries the bottle from Steve’s hands, tells him to lay down.

And because he’s been wanting to do it for a whole while now, and there’s no active frontal lobe telling him not to now, he does. Right in Bucky’s lap.

Bucky makes a startled noise that dissolves into another laugh. Steve basks in it.

“You good?”, Bucky asks, looking down at the head in his lap.

Steve hums in affirmative, staring right back.

From this angle, Bucky should look almost comical. The remaining bit of the softness of his childhood face is bunched up around his chin, creating a fold where there is usually a sharp jawline. His cheeks are flushed and rosy from the whiskey, and his eyes are laughing in the dim warm light of the living room. 

He still looks straight out of the pictures.

Steve takes this all in, and then zeroes in on his favorite part.

He’s not sure why, in the sum of all his attraction to the beautiful man in front of him, Steve has zeroed in on the cleft in Bucky’s chin, but he has. It’s just always so tempting, so there, and Steve wants nothing more than to place his thumb in it, to stroke the soft skin of the little dimple.

So he does.

It takes him about two seconds to realize how creepy and uncomfortable that is, and when he does, he freezes.

Bucky’s eyes widen minutely. He freezes too.

Steve watches his Adam’s apple bob in his throat.

Then, he recovers before Steve, slipping into an easy smile. His eyes twinkle. He says nothing.

Feeling his face heat up, Steve finally unfreezes and drops his hand.

“Sorry,” he mumbles. “Sorry. That was-”

But he cuts himself off because he’s not quite sure where that was going.

Bucky’s eyes turn that familiar medium between fond and worried.

“Let’s get you to bed, yeah?”

Steve nods, and rises from Bucky’s lap.

---

The next time he touches that beautiful cleft in Bucky’s chin, he’s sober, because that’s all his new body allows.

They’re in his tent, only an hour after their return to base with the rest of the 107th. 24 hours ago, Steve thought Bucky was dead.

Now he’s right here, sitting down on Steve’s cot with dirty hair and an exhausted sigh, and Steve is so relieved he thinks he might cry.

He settles for dropping down onto the cot beside Bucky and dropping his head in his lap. Bucky lets out a huff of a laugh and begins carding his hand through Steve’s hair on autopilot. Nevermind that Steve’s hair is just about as disgusting as his at this point.

And because he hasn’t seen Bucky and his beautiful cleft chin in months, and because he feared he’d never see it again, Steve reaches out. 

His thumb, now considerably bigger than it was last time he dared to do this, somehow still fits right into the dent of Bucky’s skin.

It’s scruffy now, harder, unlike what it was when Bucky was barely twenty. 

It still feels like home.

And instead of acknowledging the impropriety of this action, Bucky just closes his eyes. His lips take on a small but familiar smile, and he leans into the touch, just a little.

Steve’s hand moves to cup his face, thumb still in the cleft, and Bucky lets him hold on, lets him stare.

“I missed you,” Bucky whispers eventually.

Steve doesn’t think he can say it back without crying, so he just presses into the dimple with a gentle deliberation for one, two, three moments, before he lets his hand fall away.

---

He does it all the time after then, like that moment unlocked the urge entirely.

After nearly every fight, after every time he fears he might have lost Bucky -- which is a lot, too much, in this hellscape --  he reaches out for the dimple.

Bucky must realize Steve’s strange fixation, but if it bothers him, he doesn’t say so.

He lets Steve reach out as the dust of the war settles around them, lets him seek comfort on that little patch of skin. He finds comfort in the ritual too, in the knowledge that that’s Steve’s spot, and as long as he’s still still there to stake his claim on it, everything is okay.

And when they return to the tents, take their boots off their blistering feet and settle on the cot, he’ll let Steve do it again. 

Steve will lay his head on Bucky’s lap, just like he did at nineteen. He’ll reach up and gently place his thumb in the dimple. He’ll let it sit there for a few moments, gently pressing into the skin on Bucky’s jaw.

It’s a moment of calm in a never ending storm.

---

 Phillips walks into them doing this once, and almost has them court martialed. 

If Steve wasn’t Captain America, they both know they would have been.

But it would have been unjust, unnecessary, because it’s just a comforting moment between two brothers in arms.

That’s all. 

Right?

---

When Bucky falls from the train, and Steve sits in the burst open car, shivering and in complete and utter disbelief, he has the strange thought that he hasn’t reached out for the dimple in more than a week.

It’s silly, but he can’t help but imagine that maybe if he had, Bucky wouldn’t have fallen at all.

---

Nearly seventy years later, against all odds, Steve reaches out again.

He can’t know how much Bucky remembers, if he can recall this weirdly intimate ritual the two of them shared. But he can’t help but reach out, even if just for himself.

Bucky is smiling up at him, so different from the man he was in the war, even farther from the man he was in the shabby Brooklyn apartment, but somehow still the same.

His hair is longer, his shoulders wider. His cheeks are thinner and he has dark circles under his eyes, but his irises still shine the same shade of blue and his lips are still red and beautiful. And he still has the devastating dimple in his chin, the same one Steve placed his thumb in all those decades ago.

He’s sitting on an exam table in Wakanda, smiling up at Steve with a kind and beautiful smile that is both sad and joyful at the same time, and the dimple is right there.

Steve puts his thumb in it.

It still fits, which is somehow entirely unsurprising.

Bucky’s smile widens, and his eyes close. Steve’s breath catches, because Bucky remembers.

“I’m not sure why you’ve zeroed in on that spot,” Bucky says suddenly, quietly. “But it’s yours now.”

Steve presses in with just a tad more deliberation. Never hard, never forceful, but with purpose.

He swallows. “Keep it safe for me then.”

Bucky’s smile widens until there are beautiful little crinkles around his eyes. “Of course.”

Steve presses in one last time before his hand falls away.

Except that Bucky catches it in his own hand, striking his finger over Steve’s knuckles. Slowly, he brings Steve’s hand back up to his face and places a warm kiss on the tip of Steve’s thumb.

“You keep that safe for me,” he says with a twinkle in his eye.

And Steve?

Steve is in love.

⭐⭐⭐

okay so i got a little carried away, but i hope you like it <3

Who do you think gives better beard rides, henry or chris?

Yes you should test both out to answer

I've had a few hours to think about this, and you know what, i'm not sure if there's a 'better', just 'different'. I mean, it's not like they could get together and tag team you... oh hang on... anyway in this essay i shall...

So, lets start with Chris.

Lets have a look at the tongue in question. First of all its well proportioned, it comes out of his mouth a good two inches, and is thick and meaty. That's a strong tongue.

Then we have to study Henry's tongue.

Henry's tongue is quite possibly the widest tongue i've ever seen. That thing is getting on for 3 inches wide. That's a LOT of surface area coverage. We should also note the clit cradle dip in the tip of his nose, so that man was built for having someone ride his face.

Right, so we've seen the equipment, now lets speculate the technique.

Again, we'll start with Chris. Chris would be one of the guys to softly encourage you to climb on, you may be nervous and anxious, but he'd soothe your worries every step of the way. Straddling his head he'd wrap those tattooed biceps around your thighs and pull you down, letting you get the full experience of his thick beard against your softest of skin. That tongue would certainly force its way into every nook and cranny, and he'd be handsy too. There would be fingers in holes and you'd get your butt given a solo spank here and here if you started to flag or slow down. That meaty tongue would alternate between fucking your holes and running through your folds to tease your clit. He'd hold you down on his mouth as you came, moaning your name as he held you in place and wouldn't relent until you'd all but collapsed against the headboard/sofa/car seat.

So, onto Henry. Henry's beard situation seems to fluctuate so it can really depend on what role he's playing as to whether you're getting anything from Walker Stubble to Syverson Beard. But lets go with PC Build Lockdown Henry because that beard is just *chefs kiss*. Henry likes to be in charge, so even as he's pulling you on top and man handling you to straddle his face, you have little choice about the whole thing. He wants to eat that pussy, and he wants you to be on top. He'd be enthusiastic, that wide tongue is able to completely cover your taco and anything spilling over the edge of your tortilla. His big hands on your hips, he'd be grinding you onto his face and that clit cradle would be rubbing at your little button oh so good. You'd try to keep at your own pace, it was too much too soon but Henry's in charge. You'd be flipped over and he'd be diving between your thighs like a man starved. That man would have you pinned to the bed with just one muscle and all you could do is lay there and try to figure out where the aftershocks ended and the next orgasm started.

In summary, there is no winner, apart from you.

imagine: post-ws bucky being touched-starved but in a nonsexual way, desperate for physical affection, but not sure how to initiate or ask for it. imagine the low, involuntary noise that he makes the first time steve runs his fingers through his hair. imagine the way all the air rushes out of him at once when steve pulls him into a tight hug, the way he shakes and pushes his face into the crook of steve’s neck. then, imagine him learning how to ask for it, teaching himself how to put his head on steve’s shoulder without being prompted, holding steve’s hand under the kitchen table, knocking elbows and knees in the bathroom while they’re brushing their teeth. imagine the look on steve’s face the first time bucky slings an arm casually around his waist, pulling him closer without thinking about it

Steve coming home from an event and hearing Bucky singing in the shower. He hasn't heard him sound so happy and carefree since before the war, so he slips quietly down the hall to peek in the bathroom. Bucky has his eyes closed and his head tipped back into the spray, looking utterly relaxed and so damn beautiful with the water trailing down his skin and catching in his eyelashes that Steve can't help himself. He steps into the shower still fully dressed in his expensive suit and presses Bucky back against the wall to kiss his smile and lick into his mouth, everything hot and damp, white dress shirt soaking through and clinging to his chest, then drops to his knees.

Sebastian Stan and Chris Evans greeting each other.
