Summary
Steve Rogers, super soldier. It’s amazing really that it takes them all so long to work out just what the serum can do… but given enough time all things become apparent. This is a story about love, and loss; the things we would do to be true to ourselves and true to our hearts; and the prices you must pay to do that.
(There is a more detailed description at the end, in case you want more warnings and spoilers)

Summary
"Heat of moment, not think much. Just want."
Sid wonders what it's like to want that much; it's certainly never happened to him. "Okay," he says, still unconvinced. "I'll take your word for it."
"My word always good," Geno agrees, patting Sid's thigh just above the knee. Sid looks at Geno's big hand on his leg and wants just a little bit, which is still too much want for the circumstances. He sighs and thumps his head back against the headrest.

“I think I’m going to get into birding,” Sid said.
Zhenya was sitting on his balcony with his laptop on the side table, eating a burger and watching seagulls squabble on the riprap. “What’s birding,” he said absently, as one gull lifted its wings overhead, raised its rear end, and took a stringy white shit.

Summary
“So I say, before I’m thinking through, I say am getting married,” Geno says and glances up at Sid and then back down again. “They say to American?” Geno seems reluctant to continue. Sid’s stuck on trying to figure out who Geno is marrying and why he didn’t tell Sid about it. “I say, ‘no, to Canadian.'”
Sid makes a face. Because seriously, Sid feels like he would’ve heard if Geno was dating someone that seriously. But then again, he had no idea Geno had a kid until he was sitting in a hotel room in fucking Finland.
“Who?” Sid finally asks when Geno seems like he’s not going to continue.
Geno takes a deep breath and lets it out slowly. “You.”
“Me what?” Sid asks stupidly.
