Do you or any of your lovely followers happen to know of any Cinderella-eqsue fics? I know of 'Soon As I Held You' by Morrezela on AO3, but that's all I've been able to find. I'm a complete sucker for fairytale AUs! TY in advance <3

Fairytales are the best! I’m literally stunned there are not many listed (featuring bottom Bucky anyway).  

Here’s a couple of Cinderella au’s:

And some fairy tale fic recs:

The Apple Kerfuffle  - by keire_ke

Summary:

Steve always takes a bite of Bucky’s apples. It’s a source of much puzzlement and many questions among the denizens of the Avenger’s Tower, but of course asking why that is the case would violate Sam Wilson’s patented manual, whose main points were detailed in the infamous Super Soldier Therapy for Dummies PowerPoint presentation. When it becomes apparent the habit dates back to the times only Steve’s memory can recall with any measure of reliability, the race to cajole the truth out is on.

Whether the story will be believed, is another matter entirely.

(Flashback story, Snow White theme, 40s stucky, Howling Commandos era, Pre slash, Steve/Bucky, implied feelings, Bucky is the damsel in distress, a poisoned apple, a glass coffin, a castle, and Howlies to the rescue. Also ART! Link in the fic)

Beast -  by ladyshadowdrake

Summary:

A kingdom is in uproar searching for the missing Prince Thor and his team. Heading the search, Captain Steve Rogers is more invested in finding his best friend, Bucky, but when he stumbles onto an abandoned castle in a snowy meadow, he finds a lot more than he bargained for.

(Historical au, Beauty and the Beast themes, castles and magic, Bucky is the beast, Nat and Clint and others are the household furniture/items, Steve is in their castle, magical visuals, curses, pre slash, happy ending)

~

A couple of really enchanting Greek myth recs:

Listen to your heart (but don’t say goodbye to me) - by cinnamoncake

Summary:

There is a Hades, and there is a Persephone.

They’re just not the ones you’d expect.

(Greek myth au, and some modern setting, Hades Bucky, Persephone Steve, bottom Bucky implied, switching, happy ending)

~

Soul Under Wing  -  by Togina

Summary:

Bucky’s mother orders him to, for god’s sake (hers, specifically), do something about all the people in love with Steve.

Did I mention Bucky’s mother is Aphrodite?

(Greek myth au, Cupid Bucky, Psyche Steve, implied bottom Bucky, implied switching, happy ending)
