    Summary

    Without waiting for a reaction or reply, the man bore down on the gas and peeled down the highway, leaving Buck stranded in the middle of nowhere somewhere along Interstate 10.

    And as Buck watched the red brake lights of his Jeep disappear into the distance, clutching his prescription of blood thinners tightly to his chest... there was really only one thing left to do. Tilting his head back until he was staring at the stars, he took a deep breath and screamed into the night:

    “Fuck!”

    And much like every other one of his recent cries for help, it had gone unanswered.

    ---

    Buck gets carjacked, held at gunpoint, and stranded in Arizona the day before his first shift post-lawsuit. And that's only the beginning of his troubles.

    Summary

    “Buck, what are you doing?”

    “Calling Athena.”

    “Why?”

    “So she can arrest me.”

    “For God's sake,” Eddie cursed, taking his phone. “Let’s backtrack, why do you think you want to eat people?”

    “Oh, I don’t know, I got bored with chicken,” Buck spat. “How should I fucking know? I wake up and all of a sudden, I want to put these in your neck.” He pointed at his teeth.

    “Just my neck?”

    “Eddie!” 

    or: in which it takes Buck becoming a vampire for Buddie to happen.

    Summary

    Howard Stark had never known that one of his ancestors had been a filthy werewolf. If he had, he might not have bothered wedding and bedding Maria, since she *did* have an animal far far back in her lineage. No matter. Stane would take the wretched creature off of his hands, and good riddance.

    Decades later, SHIELD would find out about that dirty little secret, leaving one James Bucky Barnes with one hell of a project on his undead hands, since he was probably the only one around with the unique combination of skills and *understanding* to maybe save the rabid, feral, slavering beast they'd uncovered.

    He'd have to. It was Tony's only chance at a real life.
