How does everyone deal with loss? How much of an impact is it meant to have?

Similar. Unrelated. Is anyone familiar with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder? I would like to know more.


[ Action >> Iskaulit ]

[ If you happen to be on the Iskaulit at any time in the wee hours of the morning, between two and six, you may run into Winter utilizing the gym. There aren't really posted hours, and that's usually when no one else is around.

The poor sandbags that he helped Jim hang all those months ago are getting a beating. Winter's focus is zeroed in on the same worn spot, but apparently something gives. Winter reels his left arm back, a high metallic whine the only warning before he lands a blow. It's enough force that not only does it knock the sandbag from its hook, but it goes flying across the room like it's nothing.

Emotional? Who's emotional? Nobody here. Mind your business! ]


[ Action >> Heron ]

[ Winter may have been restless before, but without Jim, this is something new entirely. Crew have been coming and going regularly over the past few months, but this is different. The Atroma decided that he should be captain? Over someone who would probably be more capable at it. He sees what you did there. You just couldn't pass up the chance to not have to change names in the roster, huh?

He's trying to wrap his head around it. Sure, he led teams on missions as the Winter Soldier, but that was different. He wasn't really calling the shots. Being Captain is new and scary and leaves room for so much to go wrong.

If anyone wants to bother him, or happens to be visiting, he is more than likely roaming the halls trying to burn off the nervous energy. He's comfortable with the ship, but now he wants to know it inside and out. As if he hadn't already done that. Honestly, he is distraught without Jim and doesn't know how to handle it. It's not as if he can talk to Natasha about it, either. Or Steve.

The message is more than clear- don't get attached. ]

Oh! Umm... As long as you're okay with the sound! Do you like your name?

Oh... I guess I understand.

[He seems to be considering that very intently, at any rate.]

I never got to pick my name... But I guess I still like it, even if my mom gave me it...

[personal profile] throwsdown 2016-04-16 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
Y-yeah... I guess she did.

[He moves to sit down on the edge of a work-out bench, looking down at his feet.

A thoughtful silence washes over him for a moment, and he furrows his brow.]


Maybe that was when she still liked me...

Before things got real bad and she didn't care anymore.

[He glances shyly at Winter, nodding and flustering a bit. Even though he's gotten used to what happened, it still makes him a bit anxious — a bit sad. Because he did love his mom, at some point. He really did! And he wanted so badly for her to love him back. She used to, at some point. She really used to. Takeshi wishes he knew where he went wrong... where he messed up and made his mother so empty towards him.

He nods, looking back down. Kicking his feet slowly where they hung.]


Mmhmmm. After my real dad died. She got bad. She didn't want to do anything, and she got a boyfriend who didn't like me — and then she'd just sleep and smoked the bad stuff. [He mimics a cigarette clumsily.] And she sleeped a lot, all the time when it was sunny outside.

She stopped talking to me so I'd... go play outside... I had action figures... So it wasn't very bad.

[He looks up with a little smile, head sinking sheepishly into his shoulders.]

It's okay... It was real bad, but it wasn't forever!

Whenever I get sad or things are scary or hurts, I just remember that it's never forever, and then I feel better. All the bad things go away because the good stuff fights it. Like when the super sentai fights the monsters!

That's what the bad feelings are like.

[He knows it doesn't go away, but it can still get better!

After all, he found Kaze, and then he found Heather and Netherlands... So even though he misses them and it hurts his stomach and makes his eyes burn when he thinks about them sometimes, it's okay, because he got to be happy, too.]

[personal profile] throwsdown 2016-04-16 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah! 'Course I am!

[He nods very sagely, looking pleased.]

I just made friends with a fighter guy with a cool metal arm! I think that's good.

[SO PLEASED.]

You know, my dad's kinda like you! He's real tough and he fights.

I learned some stuff from him!
