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.

I will not allow myself to become damaged, except in the service of HYDRA

I've seen a lot of fics where Bucky self-harms as a coping device. But suppose HYDRA saw this behavior earlier in his conditioning. I don't think they'd stand by and watch their future weapon scratching itself up.

So HYDRA introduced new conditioning designed explicitly to prevent the Winter Soldier from self-harming or attempting suicide.

This is . . . handy, while Bucky recovers. Sort of. To be robbed of even the thought of escape. To be unable to distract himself from his mental anguish by the easiest method that actually works.

Actually, no. It sucks.

Just because he can't hurt himself, doesn't mean he can't get his enemies to do it for him.
