(You Can't Choose) What Stays and What Fades Away by Taste_is_Sweet

Summary
At some point in everyone's life, the first words their soulmate will ever say to them will appear in deep black writing on their skin.
The words fade to light grey when a soulmate dies.
Sometimes new words replace them, whether they're wanted or not.
(These were the words Steve was born with, running in a messy, uneven line across his skinny little chest, beneath both his collarbones: You okay, pal? Those jerks didn't hurt ya too bad, did they?
Steve woke up from the ice in 2011 with the words, Who the hell is Bucky? circling his heart, in printing so precise it barely looked human.
Steve hated them.)

Summary
No one knows Steve Rogers is a witch until he nearly dies and accidentally creates a familiar to save himself. The familiar is part cat, part ghost, and shares Steve's soul. His name is James Buchanan Barnes.
But little boys don't have cat ears, claws, or tails, and they're terrible at keeping secrets. To protect them, Sarah Rogers asks a witch to make Bucky seem human, and then enchant the boys to forget he's not.
Steve and Bucky grow up inseparable, but they don't talk about how they know when the other's hurting, and Bucky never tells Steve about the urge to hunt he can barely control.
He's terrified he's a monster, and then the War comes and then Azzano, and Bucky finds out he's right.
And then he falls, and Hydra finds him.
("What are you?" Steve says.
"I don't k-know." James looks at his hand, the sharp, curving claws, then at Steve again. "D-do you know? You made me.")

Summary
This isn't Stucker's story, but it begins with him because he finds a much older story, one about an American prisoner with a divided soul. One day the prisoner will get his name back, along with his history and freedom. But right now he is known only as the Ghost Cat; The Siberian Tiger; the Asset. Designations whispered with awe, disbelief and fear.
Strucker isn't afraid, but he is envious. It's 2005 and Alexander Pierce has owned the Ghost Cat for thirteen years. Strucker wants the Ghost Cat very, very badly, but Pierce is the head of the World Security Council. Pierce controls the director of S.H.I.E.L.D.. Strucker has a few armed thugs, a couple of trembling, sycophantic scientists, and an anachronistic fortress in the middle of a Sokovian forest. He has nothing that would let him steal or take the Ghost Cat from Pierce. He certainly has nothing to offer worth a shape-changing, assassin familiar.
Strucker may have nothing to offer, or with which to challenge Alexander Pierce. But he does have his intelligence, his knowledge, and his ambition.
He also has a pair of young, terrified twins.

What's Good for the Goose by Taste_is_Sweet

Summary
For this nonny prompt at the Imagine Tony and Bucky comm on Tumblr:
"A soulmate AU where an immortal goose shows up one day to lead you to your soulmate, the challenge is surviving the goose." (Full prompt in notes.)
We all have soulmates, and every soulmate pair shares an animal guide. The Guide is there to lead you to your One True Love, and they represent the aspects of the psyche that you both share. They appear when you're about to meet your soulmate, and often materialize in moments of great personal crisis, offering hope and support. There are stories upon stories about how someone's Guide appeared to lead them to their One True, or how the barest glimpse of their Guide eased their hearts and gave them hope in the midst of despair. The newly-rescued almost always attribute their Guide with giving them the strength and courage to hang on.
Animal Guides are ephemeral, ethereal, and elusive. They are, most often, no more than a warm presence or flicker out of the corner of one's eye. They are incarnate symbols of perseverance, optimism and hope. Foretellers of happiness, and the grand destiny of love.
Except for geese. Geese are assholes.

Summary
For this nonny prompt at the Imagine Tony and Bucky comm on Tumblr:
"Bonding is a natural thing that happens between compatible people. Person can have only one bond. When Tony wants to bond with his partner he finds out that he already has a bond. Now he has to find the person that he accidentally bonded with so many years ago when he was still a child."
The only thing Tony remembered for certain was how he'd felt: Joy, belonging and comfort like he'd never found before or since. For a couple minutes out of his entire misbegotten life, he'd known what it meant to be whole.
It was impossible to forget. It had ruined him. Every new friendship, every potential relationship, only offered the forlorn possibility that he might feel that way again. But he never did. And after forty-something years of looking, he didn't think he would.
He still woke up with tears on his face and an emptiness inside him like a black hole had swallowed his heart. But that didn't happen as often anymore. He could even manage not to think of his lost Half for whole hours at a time.
Most of the time, he was okay.

Summary
When Danny Williams visits New Jersey after the fall of S.H.I.E.L.D., the last thing he expects is to find a feral Sentinel curled up in the back seat of his car.

Summary
Clint Barton and Jim Street have been together for about a month as Bonded Guide and Sentinel when Jim's mom is released from prison.

The idea is to spend a couple hours with Karen and then hopefully never see her again. But what not even Jim realizes is how much Karen hates Clint for being Jim's Guide instead of her. Or how far she'll go to get her son back.

Summary
For this prompt by Dayzor from the Imagine Tony and Bucky comm on Tumblr:
"Oh yay! Super excited!! I've been sitting on a couple prompts haha Imagine a Sentinel/Guide AU- Tony is a guide, something kept from the public as Howard always saw it as weak. Bucky is a sentinel, and HYDRA made a point to never send the Winter Soldier after any guides to avoid natural instincts breaking through their programming. They send him after Tony, not knowing better."
The Winter Soldier had never had a Guide.
They told him that he must not approach or engage a Guide. They didn't explain why, but he knew better than to ask. He was the Winter Soldier, Sentinel and weapon. The only things he needed to know were what they told him.
And two days ago, they'd told him to kill Tony Stark.

Summary
For this anonymous prompt at the Imagine Tony and Bucky comm on Tumblr:
"How about anything with tsum tsums in it? I love them! Soulmates AU where you are born with your soulmate's tsum? Or tsums are like daemons? The little guys are the ones to fall in love first? Anything goes, really!"
The Asset called the creatures 'Soft Pills', because he had to take pills often enough that he recognized the shape. He knew there was another name for them, something like 'Sum', but no one ever told him.
He liked the soft pills. They were warm and nice to touch and made pleasant noises. He didn't have one of his own, but that was reasonable. He didn't have a soul, so how could he have a Soulmate? The little creatures appeared for humans; not weapons. But sometimes, if he'd done very, very well on a mission, one of his Handlers would let him hold their pill for a little while.

Summary
Clara Williams just wanted to visit Pacific Park during her layover in Los Angeles. She never expected to find a young, exceptional Sentinel dying for lack of a bond.
Actually, what she really never expected was a tsunami, or the same Sentinel to save her life.
But Clara's a Guide, so now she's on a mission to keep Evan "Buck" Buckley alive until she can get him to Eddie Diaz, the Guide who should have bonded with him, but didn't. Because Clara can't bond with Buck, no matter how much she wants to.
There's just one problem: Buck's convinced Eddie doesn't want him, and he might not survive long enough to find out the truth.
