where one or both are actors
Summary: Going through a divorce from Peggy, artist Steve Rogers moves into the seaside house inherited from his grandmother where he used to spend summers as a teenager. His former best friend Bucky Barnes has the same idea. Now they're awkwardly co-habiting while each tries to get over their recent break-up and their own history with each other.
Summary: ** VERY IMPORTANT ** odetteandodile did some amazing artwork for this, but AO3 says she can't be a co-creator, but be VERY assured that she is, and is awesome In 1930s Hollywood, the world is run on the studio system. Stars are told who to date, what to wear, what to say, and how to look pretty doing it. The only way you can really do what you want is if you don't get caught. Steve's dating Peggy, which works out because she's married to Sam, even though it's not legal. But it's the perfect cover for the fact that Steve's gay. He's managing just find skirting the system to find companionship, but then he meets James Barnes and life gets a lot more complicated.
Summary: "This is a serious coup, James. Steve Rogers has never sat down with a member of the press and given an interview. Ever. Do you know how rare that is for the fourth-string star on a cable reality show, much less the biggest movie star in the world?" Celebrity/Journalist AU based on this amazing prompt.
Summary: For better or for worse (usually worse), Steve Rogers has been the most famous guy in the room for a while. And though newsreels have given way to YouTube, people's reactions haven't changed much in seventy-some years. Steve's become an expert at keeping his head down and getting on with his life. A head-on collision on a busy street sends books flying and sweeps Steve off his feet. The point of impact has a name: James. A charming mess of long hair, thick glasses, and a crooked, not-quite-smile. If he recognizes Steve, he chooses not to comment, placing him firmly in Steve's good graces. As far as Steve can tell, they might be Bogie and Bacall all over again, save for the group of idiots with selfie sticks who surround them. But for once, the request isn't for Steve. Which begs the question: if James is James, then who the hell is Bucky?
Summary: Fifteen years ago, a skinny kid from Brooklyn went to an arts summer camp, where he met child movie star Jimmy Barnes. Their unlikely friendship faded as the years passed. But now, a threat to Barnes' career brings Steve back into his life, in the most unexpected of ways. Or, the one where Bucky is a smooth celebrity, right up until Steve the snarky photographer shows up, and Bucky's whole world gets blown to pieces.
Summary: Special Agent Bucky Barnes doesn't think of himself as a hero. He's dedicated to his career, and if that keeps him far away from home, all the better. His parents think that he should get a less dangerous job and meet a nice Brooklyn girl (or boy) to settle down with. In Brooklyn. That sounds like Bucky's definition of a living hell. He's been running from it for years. Enter Steve Rogers. Brooklyn boy. Not always nice. Hot as hell. And a temptation Bucky can't resist, even after their initial failure of a meeting. This is an AU of the Steve Rogers problem but stands alone - you don't have to read that part to understand this.
Summary: Steve Rogers' star is on the rise. As an actor who's about to hit the big time, he has everything going for him. James "Bucky" Barnes is a rock star, part of the hit band The Howling Commandoes, known for their decadent lifestyle as much as for their music. It could be a match made in heaven, but it isn't.
Summary: Bucky doesn't consider his Steve Rogers problem as a problem so much as the solution he hadn't realized he was hoping for to help him through the transition from the Bucky Barnes he'd been before his accident to the new, shiny version of himself. No, the problem isn't with Captain America and The Howling Commandos fandom. The problem is the amount of porn Bucky managed to write and draw about Captain America before finding out that he's less than one degree of separation away from Steve Rogers. 'Less than' as in he's sitting across the table from him.
Summary: Bucky's been trying to book Captain America actor Steve Rogers on his show for longer than he can remember. But when the actor does agree, he's not expecting their first meeting to be quite so... well documented... by social media.
Summary: "The question the entertainment world is asking themselves today is... Who is Steve? Hollywood superstar Bucky Barnes was spotted at a wrap-party last night, serenading someone named Steve onstage. Not only was Barnes more than a little tipsy, but he also sang a song from the Disney Channel Original Movie that started his career--a bold move, considering the fact that he always dodges questions about it. But who is Steve? Why did Bucky leave the club alone? What does this mean about the rumors of a relationship between Barnes and his co-star Natasha Romanoff? And is everyone's favorite poster boy gay? All this and more after a quick message from our sponsors!"
Summary: Catfish /ˈkatˌfiSH/ - A catfish is someone who pretends to be someone they're not using Facebook or other social media to create false identities, particularly to pursue deceptive online romances. Steve Rogers is a famous movie star, known for his role as Captain America. Bucky Barnes is a bored law student who drinks too much wine. Bucky gets on match.com to boost his confidence. What he doesn't expect is a guy using Steve Rogers' pictures on a dating profile. Bucky decides to mess with the guy. After all, what idiot uses Steve Rogers' pictures on a dating site? Not like it's really him, right? Bucky may need more wine.
Summary: James Barnes: Famous actor, heartthrob, and star of the blockbuster series 'The Winter Soldier,' Steve Rogers: Veteran and high school history teacher. The two should have nothing to do with one another. Except for the fact that they really, really do. Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes have been in love with each other for as long as they can remember. It wasn't meant to become the world's biggest secret. It did anyways.
Summary: Steve and Bucky play Sebastian and Antonio in Shakespeare in the Park's production of Twelfth Night (and make it gay).
Summary: Steve Rogers was completely in love with Batman. He wasn't an idiot, not the one on the new DC television series, though James Barnes was one of the hottest actors he'd ever seen. But no, he was enamored by the vigilante, the real Batman - The Batman of Brooklyn. When Steve Rogers witnesses Batman falling from the building opposite his after a long night shift at the hospital, the last thing he expected was to be taking care of an unconscious vigilante in his living area. But that’s what happened. Suddenly Steve had more than a few quandaries, the main one - did he unmask the hero and find out who he was in real life? Or did he tend his wounds allowing him his anonymity? Through the choices he makes, Steve and Batman become tentative friends, but what if he wants more than friendship - a lot more?
Summary: Steve is a makeup artist and has to apply fake tattoos on Bucky everyday. It the worst job in the world and the best job in the world all in one.
