    Summary

    The Winter Soldier is an enemy, then an ally, then a lover. He’s a mystery through it all, from his name to the face he keeps hidden. Later, Steve will see every sign he overlooked, every moment that should have made the Soldier’s identity obvious. He might wonder how he missed it, but he already knows. The Soldier couldn’t be Bucky, because Bucky has been dead for seventy years, and the possibility of his survival is too miraculous to consider. It’s the kind of dream that Steve no longer has enough hope to put any stock in, even when the truth is staring right at him. (Or: the Avengers contract the Winter Soldier to take down Hydra, and Steve Rogers falls in love with the same man twice.)

    Summary

    So do I remind you of someone you've never met, a lonely silhouette? And do I remind you of somewhere you want to be, so far out of reach? I wish you'd open up for me, 'cause I want to know you ... amaryllis bloom.
    //
    In 19th century Europe, Bucky and Steve are members of neighboring royal families. Steve is the heir to a throne he does not want, and Bucky is the neglected third child waiting to be married off and forgotten about. Trapped in unhappy lives by seemingly immovable circumstances, they find a way out in each other.
