    Summary

    But Steve was fine.

    Sure, he hadn’t seen Bucky in months, and sometimes he was at the punching bag so long that his skin started to peel off to expose the bones of his fingers, and sometimes he couldn’t find the energy to drag himself out of bed, and sometimes he went weeks without sleeping, and sometimes he thought about throwing himself head-first off the nearest tall structure, but he was fine.

    He was absolutely, perfectly, one-hundred percent, fucking fine.

    AKA
    In which Steve learns how to deal with his shit, and Bucky learns how to stop leaving.

    Summary

    ""Steve? Yeah, it's me-"

    "I think-I think I... I think I need help," His voice was absolutely filled with panic, breathy pants creating static through the airways. A jolt of panic shot through Bucky's stomach as he reached for his shirt.

    "What /happened/, Steve, where are you?" He didn't mean to yell. He really didn't.

    "I'm sorry.. I think I might need help.""

    Summary

    It isn't easy coping with what Hydra did to Steve. The man is a former hero, and he has been erased and reduced to someone who doesn't even believe he's human. That isn't the worse of it though, as Tony finds out.

    No, the worst of it is the sexual abuse Hydra put him through. He and Bucky commiserate in their mutual desire to rip Alexander Pierce a new one.

    Summary

    It’s too late. The moment he lets go of Steve he's lost. Pulled into a harsh and unforgiving current; thrown into the sensation that he doesn’t quite fit right inside his body. He’s hovering just below the surface like overlaying two pages of a book and seeing the text through the paper. He is slipping out of his skin, and leaving his body empty, all over again.
