“His limbs were numbed, his beautiful eyes were closing, and he must have died if the little mermaid had not come to the rescue.”

My entry for the Freezer Burn Contest, a Stucky Little Mermaid AU inspired by the illustrations of Edmund Dulac. I’ve always wanted to draw the scene where Bucky fishes Steve out of the Potomac, but there’s so much amazing art of that already that I felt I couldn’t really come up with anything new, so I went with an AU version instead.
