Dumpster #4: I Don't See How That's a Party

Okay, kids, you know the drill. Don't be a jerk except to fictional characters. Warn if you want, but read at your own risk, because [community profile] hydratrashmeme is about as far from a safe space as you can get. Garbage we like: noncon, whump, aftermath, violence, mind control, inappropriate uses of Bucky Barnes' metal arm, bad guys doing dirtybadwrong things to your faves. Garbage you should find a different trashcan for: a/b/o, D/s-verse, soulbonds, mundane AUs, OOC evil!good guys doing dirtybadwrong things to your faves, rotting leftovers dressed up as a romantic gourmet meal. Nothing wrong with 'em, but this isn't the crowd you should be pitching to if you're trying to sell Brock Rumlow as anything but a human dumpster fire.

Link your fills on the fill post, post unprompted fills as replies to a header comment so the wall o' text is collapsible, and let me know if you're interested in helping out with the Pinboard archive.

[Rules in full] [Round 1] [Round 2] [Round 3] [Fill post] [Chatter post] [hydratrashmeme Pinboard archive (maintained by [personal profile] greenkirtle)] [Round 4 in flat view (comments in non-threaded chronological order, most recent last)]

All prompts or fills that contain Infinity War spoilers must go on the Infinity War spoiler post until May 26th. Spoilers in the main dumpsters will be deleted.

Round 4 is closed; comments and fills in existing threads are still welcome, but all new prompts go to Round 5.

Oh my gosh, thank you very much. This means a lot to me.

At first I decided this was going to be Sam/Bucky for variety's sake (and because once I thought of a dynamic for them I really wanted to write it), but once I started to think about the structure of the story it was clear that there was going to be Sam POV later on, and I was looking forward to it the whole time. I wanted to try and write Sam as someone who had a pretty high level of self-awareness but isn't infallible or anodyne, and also as someone who has obviously gone through mental health treatment and training without sounding like a walking, talking Psychology Today article. And I was also looking forward to putting him in a trash context because I love to make my faves suffer Sam is all of the above and he's still unprepared for this, because really, who the fuck could be?

Anyway, I am very glad you've enjoyed it and hope to have another update ready... sometime before the next geological epoch.
