Why this must be read: So, apparently, in addition to alternate universes, I'll also be inundating you with food porn this month. I would apologize, except I'm not sorry, not even a little.

This story is a non-powered-slash-modern bakery AU, and it's lovely. It's tagged "therapeutic breadmaking," and that's basically what it is. There are so many wonderful things about this story that I can't list them all (and wouldn't want to deprive you of the joys of finding them on your own), but suffice it to say, this is exactly how I picture Steve and Bucky if the war they'd fought was in Afghanistan instead of western Europe. In addition, there is a lovely teamfic feel and glorious little nods to canon, all written in Vic's always beautiful prose.

Why this must be read:

It's light-hearted and good-humoured, and I love the dialogue and the description. In it, Doyle discovers Bodie is bisexual - after walking in on him and Murphy sharing a kiss.

I do like it when one of the lads is testing the composure of the other. In this one, it's Doyle. There is determined Doyle, matey Doyle, persistently curious Doyle, and (yum) boneless drunken Doyle, and they all test poor Bodie to the limit. Great fun.
