    Summary

    Sleep requires trust.

    The trust that you can leave your body somewhere while you go out into the wilderness and it'll still be there in one piece when you return (he was awake when they took his arm he was awake). You have to leave your body somewhere safe, a suddenly vulnerable shell without anything inside to defend it (they come for him weak and shivering after cryo and he's awake he was awake). It's involuntary, something you can't control. You don't choose sleep, sleep chooses you.

    There's a reason it's called falling asleep, and Bucky doesn't want to fall ever again.

    [Bucky isn't sleeping. Shit hits the fan.]
