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

[trashmod]

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.

Sorry that you're feeling shitty--I feel you when it comes to lousy headspaces. It's good to hear that my feedback is helping, just a little.

It's just nice to know that someone else thought that my angsty little idea that wouldn't leave was worth making into a story by itself- I don't write fic (maybe someday?), and my mind doesn't usually go to trashy places without prompting (I mean I read trash from time to time but I can't *think* in trash, you know?) so it's pretty cool that you saw potential there too.

"Every day is Bucky feels day" Too true, also the song thing is so relatable--fictional characters should not be allowed to do this to us, man. Give me back my brain Bucky you asshole--aw, Steve, not you too! Welp, it's feels forever from now on, I guess.

I like Tony as a character even though I don't *like* him, so it's neat seeing someone who gets him flesh him out like you have- I tend to gravitate towards the more obviously sympathetic characters because I'm vanilla like that, but Tony has a charm to him, no doubt. There's something about an adult continually fumbling towards mental adulthood but never quite getting there that's easy to see oneself in--we want him to redeem himself because that means there's hope for us too. Of course, he has to keep failing because, well, so do we, but maybe we end up somewhere better than we were, even if the ideal is still far off.
