Fanfics where Bucky protects Tony: Any recommendations?

The theme of friendship also runs strong. As Bucky protects Tony, they start to form a bond that goes beyond just protection. They become friends who support each other through various difficulties. Additionally, there's often the theme of sacrifice. Bucky is willing to put himself in harm's way to protect Tony, showing his selfless side.

I really like 'The Unlikely Soulmates: Steve, Bucky and Tony'. In this fanfiction, the author explores the idea of how their different personalities - Steve's leadership, Bucky's loyalty and Tony's intelligence - complement each other as soulmates. It also has some really interesting plot twists that keep you on the edge of your seat. There's also 'Soulmate Synergy' which is more of a light - hearted take on their soulmate relationship, with lots of humorous moments between the three.

One great 'bucky and steve care for tony fanfic' is 'Healing Hearts'. In this fic, Bucky and Steve notice Tony's struggle with post - battle trauma. They start by simply being there for him during his nightmares, bringing him warm milk and sitting with him until he calms down. Their care gradually extends to helping him in the lab, understanding his projects, and protecting him from those who might want to harm him for his tech.

There's also 'Forging New Bonds'. This fanfic focuses on the post - conflict relationship between the three. It explores how they start to understand and accept each other better. The writing style is quite vivid, making it easy to picture the scenes in your head.

I really liked 'Time - Twisted Encounters'. It's a story where both Tony and Bucky get caught in a time - travel mishap and end up in different time periods that are crucial to their own personal histories. They have to find a way to get back to their own time while also dealing with the emotional baggage that comes with revisiting their pasts. The story is full of heart - wrenching moments and also some really funny banter between the two characters.

One great 'Bucky meets Tony' fanfic could be 'A New Alliance'. In this fanfic, Bucky and Tony are forced to work together on a mission. Their initial distrust slowly turns into mutual respect as they realize they have more in common than they thought, especially in terms of their experiences with trauma and trying to find their place in the new world.

One common theme is mentorship. Clint often becomes a mentor to young Tony, teaching him things like self - defense or how to handle difficult situations. Another theme is family. Since Tony may lack a proper family support in some fics, Clint steps in to create a sense of family for him.

One interesting fic could be 'Bucky's Claim' where Bucky's possessiveness over Tony is shown through his protective actions. He doesn't like it when others get too close to Tony and is always there to safeguard him.

The potential for character development. They both have their own traumas and issues. Fanfic writers can explore how they help each other grow and overcome their problems. For example, Tony could use his technology to help Bucky deal with the Winter Soldier programming, and Bucky could offer Tony a different perspective on life and loyalty.

One great Steve x Bucky x Tony fanfic is 'Triad of Heroes'. It beautifully weaves their complex relationships together. The story focuses on how they overcome their differences and form a unique bond. The characterizations are spot - on, making it a really engaging read.
