Still a touchy subject for me
I have to say though, there's some folks that seem to perceive fanfiction as entirely made up of a bunch of cutesy and saccharine coffee shop AU type stories where everything complicated or uncomfortable from the work it's derived from is destroyed and everything is warm fuzzies
And uhhh. Uhhhhhhh.
Well I don't know about that!
Like, maybe for people who don't read or write fanfiction, the most visible and well known examples of fanfiction are the fanfictions that got published traditionally after they were edited to remove everything related to the work they were derived from
But this is a really bad example of what fanfiction is like, because fanfictions that can be converted into some other generic story so easily, are probably the ones that are generic to begin with and don't engage very deeply with the thing they're derived from
As someone who plunged deep into the world of fanfiction last year after not really engaging with it before, you just...can't understand it as an outsider that doesn't participate
Like. There's occasionally reading a fanfiction like a one-shot thing or whatever
and then there's actually delving into the most influential (usually longform) stories in a community, the stories and storytellers that are really engaging with other stories and other tellers, to the point that you start to piece together how they're connected to each other and how the dialogue between them forms a living, constantly iterating narrative
Y'all have no idea how much my mind was blown the fuck wide open
Well...
...My beloved followers have a pretty good idea about the Bucky Barnes Fanfiction Adventure (aka That Time The Ecology Blogger I Like Got Possessed by a MCU Yaoi Demon)
The way fanfiction is perceived outwardly is so flattened and stereotyped into very simplistic things. I had no inkling of what I was getting into
Forming a graceful circle back to the original point though. For reasons that are too long and too mentally unwell to explain, I read a fucking ungodly amount of Bucky Barnes fanfiction and had a fascinating Experience piecing together what Hydra Trash Party meant
"fascinating" is meant completely sincerely. Fascinating to finally meet those Wrongbad Problematic Fics I'd heard so much about!!
In the Buckyfic Universe, the dialogue of different storytellers has produced this, insanely gnarly and layered network of agreed-upon concepts and tropes that kept getting iterated upon and branched out from different story nodes that form new kernels of story.
so, okay. Hydra Trash Party is not a general MCU darkfic tag, even though it was described that way in the post that coined the term "dead dove". It CAN mean a variety of broader things, but it mainly refers to fics where Bucky, when he is the Winter Soldier, is raped by his handlers
The tag and the story-node in the story-thicket are different things, though. An absolute shit ton of fics that aren't Hydra Trash Party in the sense that they deal with sexual violence graphically and as a main theme, accept this as a key part of Bucky's backstory
The story-thicket has converged on these themes relating to the survival behaviors of abuse, dehumanization and powerlessness, and created a bunch of elements or story-nodes that appear in dozens of different fics without appearing in the source material. I wanted to give a couple examples but I thought of too many so here's a list
the Winter Soldier is referred to with it/its pronouns (absolutely fucking everywhere)
He's forbidden from using first-person pronouns
He's forbidden to have preferences or desires, and panics whenever asked to make a choice
after being rescued from Hydra, he thinks his rescuers are his new "handlers" and they will abuse/punish him, so he is constantly trying to placate them and figure out the "rules"
he offers himself to be punished after he thinks he broke a rule
he thinks he's a machine and not a person
Hydra bathed him by hosing him down
There's a subset of fics where the Winter Soldier can't remove his mask or it is somehow attached to his face. It's not super common because it usually does change the canonical identity reveal, but a lot of writers have unrelatedly picked it up
castration, chemical or otherwise
vivisection and/or being used as a lab rat
Hydra exclusively tube fed him so he can't eat solid food after he's rescued. these fics have SO MUCH PUKING it's unreal.
In some areas of the story there's a ton of variation, in other areas there is a lot of convergence. it's neat
Shamelessly plugging my Bucky fic here, in which I grabbed and used a lot of these ideas
Finally got around to finishing the SamBucky proposal comic!!
Inspired by the thought that a ring wouldnt work on buckys metal arm, so maybe Sam would get a whole new arm made with a ring integrated into it
Let me know what you think!

no, they are lgbt+ but think pride is cringe or something
no, they're an ally but not in a loud way
no, they're cishet and homophobic

I can’t believe this has to be said but… you know Sam is upset at the thunderbolts* because he doesn’t want the avengers to be controlled by the government, right? That’s why he was on team cap in civil war. Do you know that? It’s important to me that you know that.
