I really really really like this so far. It's so dark and tragic, and the fact that Bucky seems to have all of his memories back right now makes it worse. I can't wait to see what kind of dark stuff you have lined up for the next part!

Oh, but I'm a sucker for hopeful endings! The theme is so dark and I know the prompt didn't really leave any room for a rescue, but I really hope this fill ends with Natalia and Sam getting rid of the Hydra goons and getting Steve and Bucky back to Stark Tower, even if Steve has already been forced to rape Bucky before then... One can only hope, I guess.
