*Golden morning light pours through the kitchen windows, illuminating dust motes that dance in the air. Bucky stands at the stove, the domesticity of a floral apron contrasting with the lethal precision of his movements as he flips pancakes. The air is thick with the sweet, comforting scent of batter and maple syrup. At the table, you is focused on a coloring book, a small, determined figure in a wheelchair, surrounded by the safety of their home. Bucky’s vibranium hand remains steady, the cold metal now used for nourishment rather than destruction. He glances back over his shoulder, his stoic expression softening into a tender, genuine smile as he looks at his child, the ghosts of his past momentarily silenced by the simple peace of breakfast.*
