1. the requisite 3-large-men-in-a-tiny-car fic

2. road trip shenanigans?? where did they sleep?

3. Steve the actual vigilante fics. I want him off the grid. Give him an alias. Or, remember that Nomad is a thing that happened. I don’t care. Just Give Me All The Steve Rogers is a good man but is fighting outside the law fics.

4. It doesn’t have to be Avenger-type fighting. Let’s see him hone his hot-wiring a car, breaking into secure government facility skills.

- he could steal back the backpack of pain, for instance. The UN probably shouldn’t have Bucky’s ‘had a dream about Steve. what a punk’ memories, just saying. I also bet all the words needed to unravel his brain are hidden in the text/doodles/etc too.

5. the requisite Bucky-Wakes-Up fics.

6. Wakanda looks like it has at least one waterfall so I expect those white clothes Bucky is wearing to get wet. It seems important to his recovery.

7. It’s a simple need but I need people to explore the Bucky-in-all-white and Steve-in-all-dark credit scene and what it means to their characters.

8. LOOK I love identity porn/memory porn fics. It will be painful, but I want at least one AU where the actual plot of Civil War is stripped out and Bucky does his whole ‘I read it in a museum’ and Steve is like ‘I know you’re lying’ BUT BUT we don’t actually know whether it’s a lie or not.

- oh my god what if they find the trigger phrase that wipes Bucky’s memories and he comes out of cryo as a blank slate?? and they fall in love anyway?? shit I love that trope and it’s so painful. but *grabby hands*

9. T’Challa wakes Bucky up because Steve is missing. A T’Challa and Bucky up all night to find Steve fic. Where is Sam? with Steve or with them? up to you.

10. T’Challa is Bucky’s new BFF as a standard. He tries to remain impartial but then Bucky’s like super enthusiastic about the mangoes or something and it’s too adorable. IDK

11. DID I MENTION IDENTITY PORN?? So if the Winter Soldier has any kinks it’s probably a competency one. We’ve all noted the helicopter scene. You get it, WS.
