Warnings: PTSD, Violence, Ableist Language, I don’t consider this a “warning” but this fic features amputee!Bucky.
Notes: For over a decade, this existed as my longest work in fandom. I actually only surpassed it a couple years ago. This fic is also very near and dear to me. I was very proud of it for a long time. Admittedly, I have not reread this, so I’m not sure how accurate the portrayals are (I do remember doing a fair amount of research, but that is not a failsafe) so please heed the warnings, and take caution if necessary!
