Summary
But above and beyond there’s still one name left over,
And that is the name that you never will guess;
The name that no human research can discover—
But THE CAT HIMSELF KNOWS, and will never confess.
When you notice a cat in profound meditation,
The reason, I tell you, is always the same:
His mind is engaged in a rapt contemplation
Of the thought, of the thought, of the thought of his name:
His ineffable effable
Effanineffable
Deep and inscrutable singular name.
-from T.S. Eliot’s “The Naming of Cats”

Summary
"It’s just that you’ve been drinking. I don’t want to, you know, take advantage.” It’s only part of the truth. There are a dozen reasons to be scared of going after what he wants, but there are also a dozen reasons to go after what he wants, not the least of which is that Sam, hopefully, really wants him too.
“What if I don’t want to be alone tonight?”
“You won’t be. I’ll be here.”
“But I don’t want to sleep alone.” It’s flirtatious, but there’s a sorrow underlying the words as well, the kind that stirs up memories in Bucky.
It’s been a long time since Bucky felt equipped to take on another person’s burdens, the kind that can’t be easily fixed. And hell, it’s not as if they haven’t shared a bed before. Tonight just might involve a certain closeness, and if Bucky is being honest with himself, he’s missed the way Sam used to sling an arm around him, used to touch his shoulder or rub a reassuring hand over his back or neck.

like watching a train crash into the titanic in slow motion by exbex

Summary
I read The Royal Heir, get frustrated, then write these idfics that are quite negative. The first two are reposts, as I accidentally deleted them when I decided to make this its own series.
The stories are not necessarily in the same universe as each other.
As of right now, these stories are what could have happened in my "I Get By With A Little Help From My Friends" series if I had stuck to canon in that series.

Summary
The one and only occasion Bucky was in the same room as the Mona Lisa, it was encased in glass behind what he imagines were velvet ropes. There’s far less between ourselves and oblivion—skin that often defeats its very purpose. Or maybe its purpose isn’t protection at all, but rather to provide a place, similar to a doctor’s waiting room, in which to sit until our names are called.
Or,
Bucky Barnes, pink dresses and the Carters of the world.

Summary
What he wants… what he wants is not in the Holy Book. He won’t find the satisfaction to his desire in any liturgy, nor buried in a bishop’s homily or spread across his tongue with the body and blood upon reception of the Eucharist.
Alone and on the run in Europe, Bucky spends most of his time in his apartment, both in prayer and drowning in the weight of his own desire for the handsome stranger who's been hot on his tail.

A Marvel universe where none of the characters we care about are dead and Sam and Bucky are roommates and eventually kiss.
That's it. That's the bit.

Summary
Steve could have done a lot more to help him get used to the 21st century, Bucky thinks during the daytime. A heads up about bananas would have been nice, at least, before Steve fucked off to the 1940s to be with Peggy, or whatever. He would go, too. But the past holds nothing for Bucky, not really, even if it would be the past with Steve. So instead he faces the future with Sam.
It consists mainly of not sleeping, nighttime patrols of the tower, and rediscovering Peter Parker.
