A/N: This is based on an idea that @marziwritesfic had, and wanted to read. So, I wrote something... I hope its okay.
Main Masterlist Bucky Barnes Masterlist Permanent Taglist
He had noticed it a few times, brushed it off the first and second, but now, it stuck with him. He thought back over those moments, remembered the surprise in your voice, the raise of your eyebrows. Or, how you would turn shy and lower your head, hiding your face.
The first time it had happened, Bucky was picking you up for a date. He had arrived at your door, flowers in hand, at seven o’clock. He was on time, bouncing in his toes to fight off the nerves as he waited for you to open the door.
But when you opened the door, peeking around the frame to see him, it was as if he were hours early. While your make-up was completed, your hair was in a messy bun and you wore your dressing gown.
Now, your appearance didn’t bother Bucky. What was strange, is that Bucky knew you to be very punctual. In your words, “early is in time, on time is late, and late… well, best not bother”.
So why were you not ready?
“Sorry, I didn’t expect you to be here on time, people normally aren’t.”
You had seemed even more shocked when he offered you the flowers, the bright colours eye catching against the pale paper which held them.
“No ones ever gotten me flowers before.”
No, that couldn’t be right, Bucky thought. You were beautiful, both in mind and spirit, how could someone not have graced you with flowers before now? Had your father not gotten you some, a valentine maybe?
A damn right shame.
Still, you took the flowers with warmed cheeks, hurrying to put them in a vase of water before making your way to the bedroom to finish getting ready.
Though Bucky brushed this from his mind, he thought back on it now. How surprised you were which his punctuality and the small gift of flowers.
The second time, you and Bucky were walking down the road. Your hand was tucked into the crook of his arm, tight against his side, smiling at the little exchange of words between you both.
Bucky’s name had been called and when he turned around, Steve was there. He smiled, a bag with a local bookshops brand in hand, as he made his way over to you both.
Watching the blond make his way over, your hand left from Bucky’s arm and you slipped behind him. Bucky, at the time, had thought you were nervous, maybe shy, because a six foot giant was making his way towards you.
“Hey, Stevie,” Bucky greeted him with a hug before pulling away and reacing behind him, for you. “Sorry, I can’t really stop, Y/N and I have plans.”
You had looked at him with wide eyes, your mouth slightly open. Your eyes fluttered between the two men, not knowing what to say or do. Should you stay, go? Say hi or keep quiet.
“This is Y/N?” Steve asked with a smile before turning to you. “Bucky doesn’t shut up about you, I think we all know your favourite flowers and music by now.”
“Oh, erm, hi,” you shyly waved, ducking your head down.
“I’ll let you guys get on, but I got that book you wanted, I’ll put it in your room,” Steve said. “I’ll see you guys later.
When Steve was just a few feet away, you had quietly whispered to Bucky that he could go with Steve if he wanted, he didn’t have to go shopping with you. Bucky hadn’t realised what you were really saying, really thinking, at that point. He didn’t realise that you thought you were a place holder.
Looking back, he don’t know how he had missed it. But, Bucky was a fool among many other things.
However, after that interaction, he started to place closer attention.
You were surprised when he arrived at your home after work, in disbelief when he actually wanted to introduce you to his friends.
Bucky realised that you weren’t used to being treated with respect. And that floored him.
You were amazing, in every way. How could someone not treat you in the way you deserved? How could no one give you flowers, or arrive on time to outings, or come to see you after work or in general, or introduce you to their friends? How could someone not put you in front of all others?
Bucky pulled the highlighter packet from his bag as he sat beside you on the couch, throwing an arm along the edge behind you.
“Here, I saw these and thought of you,” he offered you the packet of pastel pens.
“For me?” You asked, taking them hesitantly.
He couldn’t sit quietly anymore, couldn’t listen to you think that you weren’t worth a single thought to anyone. You had to know what you were worth.
“Y/N, I know that you’re not used to being put first,” his fingers nudged under your chin, making you meet his eyes. “But I will always put you first, you are my priority. You come before everyone else, if you need me, I’m there. I’m not going to be late to see you, I’m not going to cancel on you. I will buy you things because they remind me of you, because I want to. You are worth everything to me.”
Your lower lip wobbled as you listened to him, his words filling you with warmth whilst simultaneously breaking your heart.
Finally, you had found someone who considered you worthy of their time, effort, and love. Finally, someone felt you were, potentially, the one.
“And I’ll show you that every day.”

Wiping away the tears that managed to spill down your cheeks, the sniffles not having subsided just yet.
You couldn’t stand confrontation, especially when it came to one of your loved ones. Voicing your opinion only pushed the matter to become worse, and the envelope ripped open to reveal anger, hurt, and demise. Words were exchanged and as someone who experienced bouts of anxiety; it was detrimental.
Having no real destination planned in mind, you found your way down the streets of New York, aimlessly searching. The rain was in a light drizzle, thunderstorm clouds gathering overhead for an enraged downpour. You just hoped you made it to wherever you were going without getting completely soaked.
Grasping the fabric of your t-shirt, you could feel your heart pounding violently in your chest. Squeezing your eyes shut, your hands shook as you tried to work your way through breathing.
If you could just steady yourself long enough, you’d be okay. But when a loud crash of thunder sounded overhead, it made you yelp and begin racing faster down the length of the sidewalk.
Gazing to your left, the solid black front door caught your attention, the familiar home seeming too inviting.
Loki.
Cutting over the lawn and pressing your sneaker-covered feet on the steps to the small wrap-around porch, your eyes were met with the gold-embellished doorbell. Inhaling sharply, a streak of lightning illuminated the sky and pushed you onward to ringing the bell.
“Please wake up, please wake up…” You trailed softly under your breath, tears still bubbling in your eyes. You glanced up to the second floor to the flicker of light break through the curtains of the bedroom. Breathing out a small sigh of relief, it wasn’t long before the door was being pulled open.
“Darling?” Loki’s sultry voice called out to you. He saw the ends of your hair dripping with water and without hesitation, he reached forward and pulled you inside.
Closing the door, his blue orbs cast into yours and he quickly saw the look of fear present in your eyes. He was able to pick up on your moods with ease.
“What happened?” Loki questioned, already taking your hand and leading you up the staircase toward his bedroom. You remained quiet, unsure of what to say.
“It’s nothing…. It’s stupid, really. I got into a fight with one of my family members. It’s okay, we just exchanged words, but… You know how I am.” You said sheepishly, a few tears streaming down your face. Loki had led you into the comfort of his bedroom where he soon was helping you change out of your dampened clothes. As he pulled one of his larger shirts over your frame, a loud crash of thunder sounded, causing you to jump closer to his chest.
Loki wrapped his arms protectively around you. “It’s okay,” He said, planting his lips to your forehead. “But why were you out there tonight, Darling?” He questioned.
You shook your head. “I couldn’t bear to go home and be alone… I was hoping maybe I could stay here for the night.” You breathed out uneasily.
Loki’s eyes pooled into yours. “Love, my home is yours. Of course, you can stay here. I just want you to be okay and feel safe.” He whispered. He could feel your body shaking against his, seeing as your breaths came in labored pants. Quickly, he took your hands into his.
“Hey, look at me,” Loki softly spoke. Your eyes lifted to meet his and Loki held your gaze intensely. “Deep breaths, okay? You’re going to run yourself into another panic attack if you aren’t careful… Focus on me, Love. I’m right here.” He encouraged you to take big breaths. Soon, you were following his breathing pattern and a wave of calm slowly began to flood over you.
Loki led you beneath the blankets. He removed his shirt for the second time tonight and tossed it over the chair by his reading nook. Wrapping his arm around you, he kissed your temple and felt as you curled into him.
His grip on you relaxed as you rolled onto his chest. Burying your nose into the crook of his neck, Loki began to draw circles into your back. You smiled gently, your lover nuzzling closer into you.
Pretty soon, you had drifted off into a peaceful sleep. Loki’s arms were secured around you as he planted one more gentle kiss to the top of your head, whispering a sweet ‘goodnight’ into your ear before turning off the light and giving in to his own rest.

“Loki grew up in a palace, and he’s very balletic, the way he fights. It’s very graceful and very beautiful. Loki has this matador style of fighting, where everything is about a kind of elegance and a kind of showmanship. We’re actually trying to build on everything I’ve done, but make it even more graceful, I suppose. If I can.” LOKI’S FIGHTING
Hi, I can order a nfsw yan zuko?
Yes, yes you can please wuhhh don’t mind the degeneracy and all that,,, kinda just used the nsfw alphabet so,,,, hope that’s good (I’m so sorry it took so long,,,,) once again,,, my questionable nsfw kills?
Tw: Dubcon, Coercion, breeding, cum play?(I think?)
A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)
Zuko is attentive as hell, he worries a lot about hurting you. Especially since he burned you the first time, and he never wants to do that again. He looks over your body for a long, long time before getting up to get you water. This is of course if he thinks to. Most of the time he does, other times he’ll just sit and watch as cum drips out of your hole.
B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)
Zuko loves your back. He loves to hold it, to rub circles into it, he loves to have his arm pressing on it as he leads you to where you two are going. He also loves your hands, so soft compared to the callouses he has. If your hands are cold, then all the better as he loves to warm you up. You like his scar. It’s the least expressive part of him, and it makes you think that maybe? Just maybe, he isn’t happy with what he’s done to you and what he’s forced you to do. You hate his eyes. They’re so innocent and kind, you can’t look into them too long lest you find that he truly does hold love for you.
C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)
He has a breeding kink, very slight but he loves to cum inside you and try to produce an heir. Of course, he loves to see his cum anywhere on you, you are his and he loves you so, so much, the proof of his love is not just in his seed, but it’s a nice physical representation isn’t it? If you ever are forced (he swears you don’t need to but the way he looks at you, like you have to do something or else he’ll get angry, well you can’t not now.) to take his cock into your mouth he wants to see his cum on your lips, in your mouth as you swallow it.
D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)
He’s pretty open about all things he’d like to do, he’s not very subtle and he’s a terrible liar so if something is troubling him he really can’t lie about it. He’s easily embarrassed however when talking about what he’s thought about so he just answers with the modified truth of “Just thinking about you.” Which normally send you into a panic, because what does that mean? He thinks it’s cute when your a little scarred though, it always pushes you to be closer to him, cling onto him a little more, even if it is out of fear. (He doesn’t really know of what, he just knows you’re scared.) So he uses the opportunity to be extra gentle with you, serving you some tea, sitting you in his lap. It’s in these moments he really enjoys eating you out.
E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)
Oh he’s a complete virgin (personally I’ve always read Zuko as somewhere on the demi-sexual spectrum) doesn’t really know how to get you off but is eager as hell to please you, will go down on you constantly but i think he still likes to feel a little powerful and have you suck him off.
F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)
He likes missionary a lot, anything where he can see your face is too perfect, he wants to hear you scream in his ear, he wants to whisper words of affirmation into your ear. It gives him plenty of access to mark your neck as well. Show off that you’re his.
G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)
As serious as they come, I don’t think he has a high sex drive unless he really, really needs an heir or is stressed, but the few times he does it, it’s purely an act of love from him and he wants to show you how devoted he is to you.
H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)
So I think he’s moderately shaved, but doesn’t like to be completely shaved down there. If you insist on him shaving or seem to be distasteful of it, he’d shave it in a heartbeat. He would hate to drive you away with something so trivial.
I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)
He loves to tell you how good you are for him, how perfect and obedient and good. He thanks you for doing what he asks of you and just wants to hold you as he fucks into your pussy. He whispers how much he loves your voice and sounds and how filthy it is that your cumming on his cock. He never pegged you for the type to squeeze his cock so well. But it must be because you love him. And because you two love each other so much, he’s gonna fuck you full of cum.
J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon)
He hates it, doesn’t often get in the mood for sex though, but when he does and you’re unavailable, he just toughs it out honestly.
K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)
He really really likes it when it’s a sort of roleplay scenario. He’s not sure what made him this way, because he truly is kind and wants to be good and sweet, but when you dress in some lighter, more transparent clothing and act like you need saving? It makes him feral. “Is this-” His cock thrusts into your pussy, stretching your walls as a groan escapes his mouth. “What your captors did to you? I bet they used your pretty little mouth too,” A finger finds its way to your lips. “No- I-” You’re aware you are crying.“They did, didn’t they? I’ll fuck all thought of them out of you.”
L = Location (favorite places to do the do)
Bedroom, no where else, only soft and plush things for you. He’s thought about putting you on his throne though, in the middle of the night, and having you ride him while he sits there.
M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)
Honestly seeing you do what he tells you too. It reminds him of how submissive you are to him and he thinks that's both cute and sweet. Also when you ask him to do things for you, when you call him “Fire Lord” and when you try to get out of something by insinuating how “Different you want things to be tonight” It’s very cute.
N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs) Sharing you? Outta the question. Having others watch you? Nope, you are his, he loves you, no one else. He also doesn't want to brand you on purpose. Not that he hasn’t, he just hates to think that he’d ever burn you on purpose.
O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.) Once he’s had some time to get used to oral, his tongue is so pleasantly hot and his fingers are calloused they feel so nice rubbing your slit. Maybe he’ll put one or two fingers in at a time, shallowly thrusting them in with a small bit of heat as his tongue swirls around your clit, his golden eyes are so predatory as he watches you squirm and tug at his hair.He loves to have you suck his dick though. Possibly even more than making you cum on his tongue he loves watching you try to keep his seed in your mouth, when you look up at him with your eyes and tears that are most certainly from love, it’s one of his favorite sights.
P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.) Oh he tries, he tries so hard to be gentle and slow and sweet. But he’s impulsive and if you say his name so sweetly, well he’s not sure how he can hold himself together. He just has to be a little more rough.However for the most part, he just likes to take his time. Sex is an act of love for him, and he loves you and only you. So he has to make sure you know this so he takes it slow. Rhythmic thrusts in and out of you as he kisses you sweetly.
Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)
Nope. No quickies for him. He’s going to take his time with you.
R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)
Depends on the risk. Burning you? No way in hell. Tying you up? If you want to be tied, sure. Him breeding you on the throne? Well he’s thought about that one more than he’d care to admit, but it wouldn’t happen. Can’t risk anyone seeing you spread out for him. No one but him should hear you beg.
S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)
He stays in there for a long time, but he only really goes for one round. It’s more out of respect for your crying, than it is his inability to go longer. He likes to take his sweet time, making you come undone and maybe? If he’s feeling a little more angry at you or something? (He could never stay mad at you, but this new policy councilman Shen is trying to pass, he’s furious with that.) So you’re in for a couple more rounds than normal.
T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)
No toys not for him thanks doesn’t even have anything against it other than, he’ll probably get jealous.
U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)
Oh he’s not much of a tease unless, it's a roleplay thing. If he is required to get into character, he will.
V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)
He’s a little quiet, not naturally, he just wants to be sure he can hear everything you say and do and moan. Sometimes he can’t hold back his moans. They’re quite loud.
W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)
He truly doesn’t understand what this is, isn’t mutual love. You’ve said you love him, and you don’t lie, right? Those tears he wipes from your cheeks are because you feel so good. It feels too good so you moan and beg for him to “stop” and he doesn’t ask you to go down on him, but you do it. And he always tries to be gentle. He tells you he loves you so much. He really really does.
X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)
He’s thick, one or two veins popping from the underside, sometimes when he keeps his dick in you, he’ll put his hand on his stomach and try to feel himself inside of you.
Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)
It’s pretty low. He really doesn’t get to frisky unless he’s built something up in his brain to make him enticed enough to fuck you.
Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)
He stays awake for a long time afterward. Whether to watch you, or to continue doing work? He won’t tell you.
Ozai is so pathetic, like that “take his bending away haha he’s harmless now” trick would never have worked on Zuko, if you took his bending away he’d just grab his swords and come at you twice as hard, Azula doesn’t have swords or anything but she’s pretty good at hand to hand and amazing at talking her way out of problems, Iroh bust himself out of prison with no bending at all, meanwhile Ozai? Gets his bending taken away and then just collapses, doesn’t even try anymore, then just sits in prison and tries to get into Zuko’s head some more, he could have trained up and tried to break out too! But no! Bet he can’t break steel bars with his bare hands. Bet he can’t kick a steel lever in two. Bet he can’t even do a flip.
Also we never really see him do any really impressive firebending apart from when he has magic comet power, I guesss he shoots some lightning at Zuko, but that’s it and Azula is still better at the lightning thing. Azula has blue flames. Zuko can do firebreakdancing and bend with his swords. Does Ozai, who is not 14 years old, have blue flames? No he doesn’t.
He didn’t even do his coup himself, Ursa had to kill Azulon for him! Could have just challenged Iroh to an Agni Kai for the throne but he didn’t bc he knew he’d lose.
And then he only ruled for like 6 years! He lost a war that had been going on for 100 years bc of a bunch of kids.
Loserlord indeed
