How Much Can You Bend (Before You Break) by batnsons (greywritesstuff)
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
01 Aug 2022
Tags
Summary
Realistically, Steve knew none of them were coming out of this unscathed. He may be dumb, but he’s not that stupid. You don’t face the things they’ve faced without taking some hits. Hell, he’s taken his fair share of physical damage (he hears Dustin’s voice say “HP, Steve! It’s HP!” in his head), and he knows they all have nightmares. So yeah, Steve knew, but that doesn’t mean he’s prepared for it.
——————
A brief character study about Steve Harrington and his inability to address and deal with his own trauma while simultaneously helping everyone through theirs.

Summary
“Um… Mr. Murdock, sir?” The kid asks, almost for clarification but something tells Matt he doesn’t need it. But he nods anyway, and the kid continues. “I was hoping maybe you could give me some legal advice? I’m in a bit of a… tough financial and maybe legal situation,” the kid continues, stuttering nervously and unable to look at Matt directly. Matt cocks his head to the side, studying the kid in front of him. He waits, and sure enough the kid explains on his own. “You see I don’t have a job and haven’t been able to pay rent, but legally it’s been… difficult for me to get a job, if that makes sense?” Matt is confused, but legal issues he can help with.
“Well, let’s see what we can help you with, Mr…” he trails off, gesturing for the kid to fill in the blank. The teenager shifts uncomfortably in his seat, hesitating for half a second before answering, almost like he’s unsure of his own name.
“Parker. Uh. Peter Parker, sir.”
As soon as the kid says his name, something in Matt pauses. He’s sure they’ve never met before, and yet…
He tilts his head a little to the left, listening intently to Peter as he asks,
“Have we met before, Mr. Parker?”

Summary
Mac wakes up with a scream, shooting upright in bed. He doesn’t even notice the tears streaming down his face, all he can do is try to breathe. He’s gasping and panting and he can still hear Jack’s scream in his head and it’s killing him. He knows. He knows it was an act, it was a ploy, the gun was a blank. Jack is alive, and he’s perfectly fine. But he’d still shot the gun. He’d shot the gun while he had it pointed at Jack and his brain won’t stop replaying it. It’s always on a constant loop. At least when he’s awake it’s just a replay. When he dreams at night, it’s twisted, a demented nightmare. When he drifts off, it’s suddenly real. There’s no fake act, no blank, no bag of blood.
——————
Mac has a hard time dealing with the aftermath of fake-shooting Jack. Good thing Jack is right there to help.

Summary
How they ended up here really isn’t important. What is important is that now they’re here, trussed up in chains along the wall, Harry on the opposite wall to Eggsy. And that in and of itself makes Harry more anxious than the chains around his wrists and ankles, makes him more anxious than the tray two men are wheeling in loaded with various tools and painful implements. Because Eggsy is across the room from him, a good 8 feet away, and Harry can’t reach him. It fills him with a dread so deep, a feeling of discomfort so severe it feels like his very insides are crawling with molten lava. They haven’t pulled the blindfold off Eggsy yet, and Harry feels a blinding rage when the squeak of the metal wheels pulls a barely noticeable flinch from the younger man.
----------
Harry and Eggsy are kidnapped, and their captors soon discover that Harry has a weakness: Eggsy.

Summary
“Hold up, kid, what ‘lake incident’”? Tony questions, using Peter’s own words.
“Ya know, the one where the Vulture first showed up? He dropped me in the lake and you showed up to help me out. Although, now that I think about it, you didn’t actually show up so that might be why you don’t remember,” Peter trails off, getting distracted by his own thoughts before going back to the wiring he’s working on. That comment stings a little, but the feeling is quickly brushed aside as his confusion grows, and the nonchalant way Peter mentions it just ratchets his fear up even further.
———————
Tony is reminded of the “lake incident” nearly a year later, and it brings up some unpleasant things.

Summary
Buck, as Eddie is just finding out, doesn’t like needles. Like, really, really doesn’t like needles. The “pass out when you see one” kind of not liking needles. Eddie somehow never knew this before, and honestly, if it weren’t for Buck about to have a panic attack in front of him, he wouldn’t have believed it. But right now he believes it, because the moment Eddie mentioned that he’s gonna have to stitch up the nasty, very heavily bleeding gash in Buck’s thigh, Buck had gone even paler than he already was and started trembling.

Buck and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day by batnsons (greywritesstuff)

Summary
The last straw, at least for Bobby, was when Buck stood up after a dinner that he’d mostly just picked at and nearly fainted into Bobby’s arms. Bobby had taken one look at him practically cradled in his arms, pressed a hand to his forehead, hissed at what he found, and promptly declared that he was going home early. Only, Buck couldn’t be so lucky today. Oh no, Bobby had meant his home. So that was how Buck ended up getting out of an Uber in front of Bobby and Athena’s house. That doesn’t, however, explain what he’s doing sitting in a tree.

“Hey, Chim, have you seen my hoodie?” Chim’s eyes immediately widen.
“Uhhhh…. Your favorite one?” He says slowly, and Bobby frowns.
“Chimney where’s my hoodie,” he asks carefully, and Chimney grits his teeth and points up to the loft.
“Try not to kill him, Cap,” Chim says, slapping a hand on his shoulder and walking away.

Summary
Dev skids into the medbay, instantly taking in the scene in front of him. Wayne is standing next to a gurney, Tim on the other side, and they’re both trying to hold down a screaming Jason Todd, clothed in a pair of black jeans and a simple t-shirt. So not on patrol, then. Bloody hell, he thinks, before quickly tossing his kit down onto a nearby gurney and wordlessly shouldering Wayne out of his way. The other man is tight-lipped and pale, the top half of his suit missing and his left arm cradled awkwardly against his chest.

Jason gets dosed with fear toxin as a normal civilian, and Bruce proves nothing matters more than his kids.

Summary
But right now he’d give almost anything to be able to curl up next to Sam and fall asleep for longer than 45 minutes. He’d not even had any nightmares. And that’s the crux of the problem. His subconscious viewed Sam Wilson, a man Bucky has done nothing but bicker with and insult and accuse, as something so intrinsically safe that he was able to sleep peacefully for the first time since The Train. Sam Wilson feels like home, and it terrifies him.
————
Bucky deals with the aftermath of The Rooftop incident and struggles to fill the empty space in his chest whenever Sam isn’t there.

You doing okay, Cowboy? by batnsons (greywritesstuff) for altschmerzes

Summary
Solo has never felt such pain in his life. Sure, he was a soldier, subject to brutal training and the occasional bullet wound. He was a spy, on rare occasions captured and tortured for information– a rag thrown over his face and a bit of water dumped over his head, or a few solid punches to the gut. But there was always a purpose for that pain. Growth for him, or power for them. But this? This was pain for the sake of pain, and he’d never felt anything like it. This was pain purely for the sick fascination of a man who wanted to know how he would react to it. There was no scientific purpose, no search for useful knowledge.

Horses + Unconditional Love by batnsons (greywritesstuff) for altschmerzes
Fandoms: MacGyver (TV 2016)
25 Oct 2020
Tags
Summary
Mac is sitting cross legged on the floor, and Pepper is laying down in front of him with her head almost resting on Mac’s shoulder. It’s rare for horses to lay down unless they’re sick, and for a moment Jack is terrified that’s why Mac’s crying. Except Pepper seems fine, and Mac would have come and gotten him right away if something was wrong. Which means Pepper laid down because of Mac, and it makes Jack feel so warm inside.

Summary
“Rick’s missing. He went to the bank two hours ago, shoulda been back in 45. And before you tell me it’s too soon, he took the Ferrari. Higgins just checked the tracker, and it’s not transmitting. Something’s wrong, Gordon. I can’t-” Higgins grabs him gently by the elbow when his voice breaks, and Thomas takes a deep breath to steady himself. “I can’t do this again, I can’t. Please.”

Summary
There’s a slight rustle as someone steps into line behind him, and Rick bristles slightly as the person gets a little too close for comfort. He’s got the card in the slot already, but he’s loath to enter the pin with someone practically breathing down his neck. He starts to turn, a sharp Buddy, do you mind? on his lips, when there’s something hard and cold pressed against his spine. Rick goes frozen still, recognizing the deadly muzzle of a small handgun at his back. The man, as he can tell now, leans in close, his breath warm and tickling the side of Rick’s neck.
“Thomas Magnum?”

Summary
It’s freezing cold and pitch black when Bruce jerks awake. For a moment his brain is a jumbled mess of confusion and blind panic before everything hits him like a bucket of icy water. It takes him much longer than he’d like to admit to realize he actually has just been hit by a bucket of icy water. He has a head injury, then. Of course. He’s hit with what he can only assume is the third bucket of ice water then, leaving him gasping and spluttering as the freezing water fills his nose and mouth. He coughs harshly, tasting iron in the water running down his face. Head injury for sure, and bad enough to bleed.
