⚕️|He's never seen someone like you (Veterinarian AU)

In a quiet, forest-edged town, Bucky Barnes - once the feared Winter Soldier - now lives in near-isolation as a quiet but gifted veterinarian. Haunted by his past and bearing the scars of torture and war, he avoids human connection, finding solace only in the animals he treats. One stormy night, everything shifts when you arrive at his clinic after hours, drenched and desperate, cradling an injured animal.
