Dumpster #3: The Great Pacific Garbage Patch

[trashmod]

Holy shitballs, look at us go. Welcome to Captain America fandom's resident wretched hive of scum and villainy: ROUND THREE. AKA Bad Guys Do Dirtybadwrong Things To Your Faves, AKA the Hydra Trash Party kinkmeme. As usual, BLANKET NON-CON AND NSFW WARNINGS apply: just assume going in that everything in this landfill is unfit for human consumption.

Rules in brief: don't be a jerk except to fictional characters, warnings for particularly fucked-up garbage are nice but not required, thou shalt not judge the trashiness of thy neighbor's kinks unless thy neighbor is trying to pass off their rotting banana peels and half-eaten pizza crusts as a healthy romantic dinner for two, off-topic comments may be chucked out of the dumpster at management's discretion, management's discretion decrees that omegaverse, soulbond AUs, D/s-verse, non-superpowered AUs, and dark!good guys AUs are off-topic.

Extreme insomnia

[(Anonymous)]

Post HYDRA, Bucky cannot sleep. No matter how many times he works out to the point of collapsing, no matter how few calories he's getting to even keep him alive let alone provide energy, he can't. He's starting to think that the only way he can ever go to sleep again is if he electrocutes himself into exhaustion or sleeps in an industrial sized freezer. He's even researched how to go about purchasing one or more items which might lead to just that. Within a week he's hallucinating, nodding off everywhere only to wake up a second later with the shakes.

Bonus points if he ends up ridiculously addicted to various drug concoctions to help him sleep. Then he ends up over-sleeping ALWAYS, spending most of his days asleep or on the brink of and starts to lose grip of the line between reality, the numbness of slumber without dreams, and his varied dream worlds.

He develops sleep anxiety, slowly but surely, as he begins to realize that a part of him dreads waking up more than anything he's ever feared before. He doesn't want to live in the real world, but every time he wakes up, he's taking from himself what he so deeply wants and is therefore scared of going to sleep because of the pain that comes with waking.



Apologies if this doesn't make complete sense...

OP here. Please note that I do NOT ship Bucky/Steve (at least in the way many people do) and would therefore prefer this fic not to have any romantic tones to it.

Also, please feel free to go into detail about the auditory/visual hallucinations he has. Or not. :)
