Chatter post

For all your discussion needs.

Ground rules:
- Try to keep it loosely trash party related, or at least Cap fandom related.
- Disagreement is fine, nastiness is not.
- Being offended is not carte blanche for nastiness.
- Trashmeme ground rules apply. Read at your own risk, no romanticizing your noncon garbage, no wank about the moral acceptability of noncon kink.
- Body shots, sniper shots, and tetanus shots are all available at the open bar. Party like it's 2014, kids.

>>Suffice to say that I'm 100% okay with awful!Rumlow fics, but there should still be room here for a more nuanced characterisation of him as well

Um, I did actually say that I wanted room for both interpretations? My interpretation of "canon" Rumlow is not the only version, or even the only version I'm writing/reading myself - there's the academical approach to canon analysis and then there's what we do here, and those are two completely different things. My beef was with the OP being "uncomfortable" with Rumlow being portrayed as even the least bit sympathetic and claiming it violated the forum rules. I'm not the one wanting to limit Rumlow's characterisation!
