    Summary

    To Caine it often felt as though the entire span of his existence had been nothing but an exercise in futility.

    Endless effort spent on hopeless goals and still more hopeless humans, until his love had finally run dry. But while he could give up on humanity, could turn his admiration to contempt, his affections to violence, he found he could not ever let go of the soft blue eyes that he had fallen hopelessly and irrevocably for, as soon as they had met on opposite sides of a screen in that office years and years ago.

    So there was never any other choice left to either of them, not when his longing for the older man had been baked into his coding from the very start, into his very DNA.

    Kinger would understand who he belonged to.

    It didn't matter if he broke that pliable body beneath him with the force of his feelings, even as he had once shattered his mind and torn his heart in two. Kinger would understand. Caine would MAKE him understand. And if Kinger, even with all his intelligence and resourcefulness couldn't get it right the first time?

    It was fine.

    It was FINE.

    Caine has never known how to do anything other than try, try, TRY AGAIN.

    Summary

    When Kinger is teleported away by Caine to probably get shredded again, something else happens between creator and creation.

    The lights are dimmed, a conversation is had, and a questionable method to make Caine give them a break is executed.

    Summary

    After Queenie abstracted, Kinger just wanted to be able to stop thinking about everything. Something he wishes in his distress makes the light take it all away. Though, it’s not just the grief the brightness makes him forget. In the dark, the only time he’s in his mind, he’s forced to relive every painful moment over and over and over.

    All he aches for is a calm without the storm. What Caine has to offer is a broken umbrella—but if he asked, he’d give Kinger the moon.

    Kinger does not ask. He has no interest in the moon.

    Summary

    Kinger is the only human left in the Circus, and who knows how long it's been that way. Despite Caine's best efforts, the adventures have just made him more lonely. Caine throws him into a particularly agonizing adventure, and while Kinger is typically an endlessly patient guy, he can't hold back his frustration this time. Caine loses control.

    Summary

    @Sparcina shared this prompt: Post-TFATWS, Zemo starts writing erotica from his cell and becomes famous under his pen name. Sam, who's heard about these books from Sarah, who's a huge fan, gifts one to Bucky as a joke. Bucky means to ignore the book until it spontaneously catches on fire, but after one night too many of not being able to sleep, he picks it up out of boredom... and finds himself getting reacquainted with his sexuality (which he's been ignoring for years) via 'this very mysterious author'.

     

    Bucky's pretty stupid, but this really takes the cake.
