#which is a dumb idiot move but hey hes traumatized cut him some slack

[silvr-skreen]

fun fact in the starling rehabilitation au the layers are both real and not real

the not real is the video game form. HOWEVER. they are equivalent to the 3 layers of the mind (the conscious, preconscious, and the unconscious) and layer 4 being the rough equivalent of a bad acid trip.

at least that's how bucky would describe it to anyone who asked. not that. not that anyone's asking him anything. he and the rest of the starlings are in the abandoned broadside beach and he. he doesnt wanna talk about it. (which is sad because until he confronts that he's going to be stuck there in his dreams every night. and layer 3 is CLINGYYYYY - aka he struggles to wake up and reorient himself afterwards)
