So someone on the Shrinkyclinks tag was like “skinny!steve given to the winter soldier tho”

and I was like yeeeeeeee

Hydra figures out a way to de-serum Steve and proceeds to make the fatal mistake of underestimating him. They think just cuz he’s tiny, he won’t be a threat. They think if they take away his voice and humiliate him by carving their sigil into his chest, he’ll lose the will to fight. They think giving him to whats left of his best friend will break his spirit.

they are so fucking wrong

Steve bides his time and when the moments right, he dismantles Hydra from the inside. They never should’ve underestimated Steve and they never should’ve let him near the weapon he’s known how to fire since childhood; Bucky goddamn Barnes

In a fandom with many beautiful stories where the narrator or the information they hold as truth may be unreliable, this is something I think is unique and special. Brightwork just finished posting today, and it’s a story I’ve followed with interest since it began. notoska takes a fascinating ‘what if?’ premise and teases it out over twenty-two chapters as the characters travel around the world, tracking down the remnants of Hydra and finding tiny pieces of the puzzle. There’s a tension that runs through the whole story that’s equal to any conspiracy thriller, and the reveal, when it finally happens, is so small and subtle that you’d be forgiven for thinking it completely opaque unless you’ve got a very good memory for minutiae (or you do what I do, dig back into the story and find the answer) and realise its profound significance. It’s not a story for people who need everything wrapped up in a bow or are unsatisfied with open endings, but for those of you (like me) who love a story for the beauty of its construction, for those who love seeing characters struggle and don’t need to see them triumph, just survive, for those who like to see Steve, Bucky, Sam and Natasha questioning everything they know, then this story is for you.
