no because imagine being loved by bucky barnes, to be loved with the entirety of who he is
yes. god yes, imagine that right now please *screeches softly*
imagine being loved by someone who will always see you and cherish you for who you are on the inside, regardless of what you look like on the outside
imagine being loved so softly, so completely, that even when you've lost everything, you can still count yourself rich because you have him:
his love, his undying loyalty, his unrelenting devotion
imagine being loved so fiercely,
that the very notion of a lifetime without you isn't even worth contemplating
imagine someone capable of a love so unconditional and bone-deep, that they'll choose risking their life - to protect you and stand by your side through thick and thin - over their own safety,
despite all the shit they've already been through, despite the constant dread in their guts and the trauma they're still silently, painfully struggling to process
imagine being loved so entirely, and fundamentally, so deeply and intimately that even decades of brainwashing cannot wrest you out of his system: you're there for good.
you will always come back to him - and he, he will always come back to you
in short, imagine being steve rogers
and honey, we all know that steve rogers doesn't do things by halves, but my god, that boy james buchanan barnes? he doesn't play around either.
but you have to be careful with this boy's heart, honey. because when someone loves as fiercely and selflessly as he does, it's easy to take advantage of them, to take that love for granted. if you're not careful, they might even let you break their heart, and they'll hide that hurt from you, cover it up with a crooked grin and a shrug of their shoulder, even when it's killing them on the inside - and you don't want that, now do you?
so treat his heart gently, and tenderly, and cherish his love as the priceless treasure that it is <3

Some Atonement AU related sketches cause I really do need to draw something for this AU
Oh Contrarian...a voice left out by the others and ran away from them. If only he knew that there is someone out there who does indeed miss him. Maybe then he wouldn't feel so worthless. And maybe that someone wouldn't be so lonely either.
As for Smitten, he knows how cruel and unfeeling Cold is, so he doesn't understand why the warped voice is so gentle towards him. Surely there must be some kind of feeling, maybe one that’s not so twisted, in there somewhere...is there?

Talked about this in a tag rant, but in mental health advocacy spaces or mental health awareness spaces, it is imperative that we stop treating cognitive behavioural therapy as the Only Option or the Best Option. As a survivor, having CBT therapists coach me through ongoing abuse was very unhelpful at best. At a certain point, going to my "mind palace" did not help me go home to a place that was a threat to me.
Yes, there are good uses for CBT. No, that doesn't mean that it is the only option for helping people who are struggling. It is dangerous to prop up CBT as the only option. It is dangerous to not inform a patient about all treatment options and what would look best for them (it's also dangerous how insurance may only cover CBT therapists, too. It is extremely dangerous.)
