hydratrashmeme | 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

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.

OP: No matter how many fics I read where Bucky begs to be put down, it still hits me so hard in the feels every time.

"Hell a month of that would be enough to drive most people insane." Make that a few hours, Tony :( The human mind ... doesn't do very well under those conditions.

Bucky still calls it water! Ow, my heart.

Maybe it's been done before (but I haven't read a great deal of Tony content so I haven't seen it anywhere else) but I love the idea of Tony comparing Bucky's torture to his own and resenting him for not "holding out" like he did ... until he thinks a little harder about things. A lot of people like to just skip to the camaraderie that two people who survived similar horrors could have, but it's just as realistic for there to be bitterness and judgement when people try to weigh their experiences and reactions against each other's--and of course it's x1000 for these two.

That cliffhanger ... Oh my goodness. *rustles trash in nervous excitement*

This chapter almost felt like a respite after the last one, so I'm sure what comes next is going to be even more painful (in a good way).
