Twenty years ago, back when the Asset's conditioning was still touch-and-go, the Soldier snapped during a particularly brutal trash party and turned the tables on his captors.
One of the people in that room was a teenage rookie called Jack Rollins. Disgusted and terrified by what he was witnessing but knowing that there's no way out, he went along with what he was ordered to do. Unfortunately for him, the Soldier repaid each of his tormentors in kind. Those who hurt him, he killed. Those who raped him, he brutalised right back...
Rollins survived, despite life-altering injuries, but he never moved on from that trauma, and when he comes across Bucky after TWS, nothing will stop him from taking his revenge.
Basically, I just want pain for them both. Regardless of what side Rollins was on, he's as much a victim in this scenario as Bucky is, and I want that explored in all its angst-tastic detail.
I want Rollins re-enacting his rape on Bucky in the hopes that it will expunge what was done to him (it won't). I want Bucky having to deal with the horrific realisation that he raped a kid who clearly wasn't enjoying what he was doing (the Soldier was less than human and didn't care; Bucky, however, remembers what went down differently). I want them both hurting each other as savagely as they can emotionally.
And crucially, I do not want a happy ending. No Steve to the rescue, or Bucky overpowering Rollins. Just two people who end up even more broken afterwards.
Rollins/Bucky revenge rape (hurt with absolutely zero comfort)
