I’d like to rec “Silver Linings” by a_cumberbatch - it’s one of those “how the hell doesn’t this have more kudos?!” fics - modern no powers AU with a kinda-soulmate vibe going on, where a touch of a person you’re attracted to marks your skin. Featuring the sweetest Bucky I’ve read in a while! It’s absolutely bloody magical and sweet and made my day so much better :)

I would like to recommend By Light of Day, by BeaArthurPendragon and kocuria-visuals. (works/32137756). It was so meaningful to me to read and I think it might be very meaningful for other people, too.
Thank you for writing in!
By Light of Day by BeaArthurPendragon, kocuria-visuals (kocuria) (oneshot | 8,192 | E)
The dress is heavy from the beads, but the fabric is smooth beneath his fingers—silk, maybe, from the slight sheen—and when he unbuttons the back and steps into it, and feels the smooth heavy drape sliding across his skin, he can barely breathe.
(On a cold Friday night in 1940, Bucky Barnes becomes whole.)

Hi! I Just wanted to recommend this extremely well written stevebucky tangled!au: “At last i see the light” by stevebuckiest!
Thank you for writing in!
at last i see the light by stevebuckiest (complete | 116,002 | T)
This is the story of how James Barnes dies.
Don’t worry- that might sound grim, but this is actually a very wonderful story, a tale of magic and adventure all wrapped up in a romance so grand it could span the stars with a deserved dose of happiness at the end. But the truth is, it isn’t even strictly his. This is a story mostly about a boy named Steve, and it starts, like all beautiful things begin, with the sun.
(alternatively: the tangled au starring rapunzel steve and flynn rider bucky that i have been dreaming about all my life)

Hi!! (Your blog is really cool, btw nice work!) id like to recommend ‘and the flows beneath your skin’ by Deiserium. It’s got magic and soul bonds and it’s set in a boarding school.
Thank you for writing in!
and the river flows beneath your skin by Deisderium (WIP |  89,457 | E)
Steve crosses his arms, feeling more than a little defensive. "Look, it's not my first choice either, but there's no other option. There's literally not another room in all of Susquehanna with space for me."
Bucky looks as though his soul is about to leave his body in sheer annoyance. "I just—I really thought I was going to have a single this year."
"Yeah?" Steve keeps himself from snapping, but only just. "I thought I was going to have a room this year."
*
In which Steve and Bucky are forced to room together their senior year at boarding school, and accidentally soul bond to each other even though they kind of hate each other. All they have to do to get out of it is not kiss each other for a year so the accidental bond will fade. How hard could it be?

They Know God but I Know You
I’d like to rec my own fic, called “They Know God but I Know You” on Ao3. It’s a Shrinkyclinks Au, Preserum!Steve and WS!Bucky. Bucky begins as a ghost who haunts the apartment Steve has just moved into, but as their friendship turns into something more, more secrets are revealed about Bucky’s true identity ;) 
It’s 207k!! And I’m super excited about it! 
It can be found here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/21486571/chapters/51208219

Can I rec A Quiet Front, by curious_werewolf and themastersbeard.
It is a great writing of what if Steve was discovered in ice during 1940s. The writer has a perfect grasp of Steves personality and how much emotional struggle he is going through having to go home without Bucky.

hi there!! sent a message about a month ago looking for a fic and i think tumblr must have ate it, but the good news is i found it myself! “where the heart is” by chancy_lurking (works/20943590) is an awesome modern-day fake dating au with some domestic avengers, and i couldn’t be more in love with it!
I’m glad you found it :)
Where the Heart Is by Chancy_Lurking (oneshot | 12,133 | T)
“Couples are more than welcome to room together.”
Steve freezes up, feels his eyes go a little wide before he can help himself. He stumbles over his words, “Oh, I—No, we’re not—”
“We’re not going to give you any trouble about that,” Fury presses, turning to squint at them head on. “Stark likes to say we’re opened minded and close-knit. Your private life is your business, but you don’t need to hide here, understand?”
Steve goes to reiterate that they’re not a couple, but startles when Bucky’s hand settles on the small of his back. He looks at him like he’s lost his mind, but Bucky’s just smiling at him. “Never can be too careful these days,” he says.
(Steve and Bucky pretend to be a couple when they move in, but at some point, it stops feeling like pretend.)

Radio Nowhere by Poe (/27007417). Bucky runs a podcast called The Wastelands, Steve is an artist. Ethereal and creepy and so, so good.
Thank you for writing in!
Radio Nowhere by Poe (complete | 10,204 | T)
"The Wasteland was a place where your name didn’t matter, where your gender didn’t matter, where who you fell in love with didn’t matter. All that mattered was survival, was the adventure, was the long nights with nothing but the chirping of crickets and the alien howls of the horrors that lurked just beyond the horizon to sing you to sleep. The Wasteland was a beacon to other outsiders, somewhere, that despite the desert demons, it was safe to be yourself."
*
(Or: Bucky Barnes runs a podcast, but doesn't want to be seen. Steve Rogers can't stop looking.)

I'm the anon who wrote in about a college professor AU - just wanted to let you guys know I found it!!! It's called You're So Smart, How Could You Not Know? by dottieapple and it's so good
I’m glad you found it!
You're So Smart, How Could You Not Know?* by dottieapple (complete | 37,047 | E) *chose not to warn
Dr. James Buchanan Barnes is the newest assistant professor at Shield College, a small liberal arts school not terribly far from New York City. Dr. Steven Grant Rogers is that hot jerk who works in the art department. Bucky's not interested in Steve--He's NOT. He just happens to run into Steve all over the place. Steve, who runs the campus in tiny jogging shorts, who has pretty eyes, who is clearly good with his students but doesn't talk much to his colleagues. Will sparks fly for this well-dressed, metal-armed English professor and this stoic, muscular, cargo-short wearing, paint-splattered artist?

Thought I’d recommend a Shrinkyclink fic: it’s called A Minute, A Day, No More by Jerckcurb. It has so much fluff and a late night feeling to it.
Thank you for writing in!
A Minute, A Day, No More.* by Jerckcurb (WIP | 45,411 | M) *chose not to warn, past /others, mentions of assault
One night, a customer attacks Steve after he finishes a shift at work. He is rushed to the hospital where he ends up sharing a room with a strange man who won’t stop staring at Steve. After their strange encounter that night, Steve thinks he’ll never see that man again. However, that doesn’t seem to be the case.
