iamshadow21 requested Sam/Riley, seeking solace. Thusly:

“Stop feeding my dog popcorn,” Riley grouses, and Sam flicks a kernel at his damn head.

It’s day three of the kind of rough patch that usually leaves Sam feeling twitchy and useless all at once, the kind where Riley spends his whole days inside and asks Sam to call the VA and tell them he’s not coming in. Sam, because he’s a good boyfriend even in the worst of times, called the VA first and the law school second, begging off two of his three classes because, hey, sometimes you need somebody to hang out on the couch with you and your spoiled rotten “service dog,” you know?

“You don’t need to do this,” Riley’d said on the first day, his face mostly neutral with just a hint of sad.

Sam’d carded fingers through his hair and kissed him on the temple. “Complete Indiana Jones trilogy disagrees, baby,” he’d teased, and that’d won him a smile.

It’s day three, and they’ve watched pretty much every DVD they own (plus a billion reruns of Project Runway), eaten their weight in popcorn, and shared a couple extremely long, lazy showers. And just to piss Riley off, he tosses Cap a fat piece of popcorn.

Cap crunches down, his tail wagging, and Riley rolls his eyes. “I’m so glad I’m going back to work tomorrow,” he grumbles.

“It’s like you don’t even love me,” Sam complains, but Riley kisses him slow and sweet like he maybe needs to prove Sam wrong.

Ahhh guys the-wordbutler wrote for my prompt and it’s PERFECT. Happy, happy smiles from me, here.

Behold the new cuteness! Baby Falcon, with removable wings and wing pack. This little bae is the most intricate dollie I’ve attempted thus far, and I’m pleased as punch with the result! I must’ve spent an hour making him fly around my bedroom!

“Imagine Bucky as this very meek, silent presence when he first joins the team. Hydra had him trained to stay out of the way, to speak only when spoken to or when a mission required it, and the idea that he’s allowed to have actual conversational input is taking a while to sink in. So it’s not uncommon for him to go days at a time without uttering a word, and everyone just takes it in stride and does their best to let him know that he’s welcome to talk whenever he wants. It takes time, but gradually he starts to open up, volunteering his questions and opinions and disjointed little observations…

And god, his vocabulary is absolutely filthy.

It’s pretty obvious that he’s not trying to be aggressive or offensive. Bucky’s main source of social interaction for the last seventy years has been listening in on conversations between the various other soldiers, mercs and black ops guys who accompanied him on missions, so that’s who he parrots now as he learns how to speak for himself again. He can swear fluently in about a dozen different languages, and his repertoire of English vulgarities is enough to raise even Natasha’s worldly eyebrows.
“I’m gonna start a swear jar,” says Tony, kicking back on the couch as Bucky offers up his colourful interpretation of the evening’s news to the room at large. “Screw clean energy, clearly the real money is in swear jars now.”
“Hey, I can dig,” says Sam. “I’m learning some great new compound words here. And it’s not like he’s wrong about the mayor.”
It may not be deliberate, but it’s also not entirely unconscious. Bucky is perfectly capable of switching to perfect 1940s gentleman when he wants to: as far as the downstairs reception staff are concerned, he’s a boyscout. But when he’s relaxed, he always defaults back to talking like he’s in the trenches. Some jokes are made about the effect he must be having on the good Captain America, but Steve barely even blinks – it’s kind of like having his old STRIKE team back on site, if his STRIKE team were all to start talking through the same mouthpiece at the same time while under the misguided impression that Steve wasn’t really listening.”
