Due to canon circumstances, this character will be recovering from, and therefore referencing potentially triggering material that will include: symptoms of C-PTSD (resulting from sustained physical and emotional abuse), hyper-vigilance, suicidal ideation, depression, depersonalization, dissociation, dehumanization, and non-consensual human experimentation including drug use, physical alteration, memory removal and conditioning. There may also be specific references to torture, gaslighting, abusive individuals and relationships, as well as in-character victim self-blaming.

If there's anything, specific or general, that you'd like me to avoid mentioning, or if you'd like to opt-out of interaction altogether for any reason whatsoever, please feel free to comment here. (Comments are screened.)

How to Train Your Assassin (training, plotting, + handwavey post)  
Welcome to Bucky Bootcamp

If your character is currently training with Bucky, their experience is going to be... less than fun. He doesn't handle soly basic self-defense, and will make that clear from the get-go.

Outside of classes, he'll be expecting them to do conditioning work; running, strength training, practice drills, etc on a regular schedule. He'll allow leeway for events and extenuating circumstances but if they don't put in an honest effort, he will call it quits and try to hook them up with a teacher that's better suited to them.

Training itself will be grueling. You're welcome to handwave everything from sprains to extreme fatigue to bruises and blame it on him. (Just drop me a note here so I know for cr purposes.) He won't seriously hurt anyone (ie broken bones) but he will literally run them into the ground, and then get them up again for round 2. Expect a lot of sharp corrections and, if they're really impressive, maybe a nod of approval.

Bucky's MMA training in particular is relentlessly aggressive and offensive, but he will walk his students through strategies that best fit their stature and abilities. Expect a lot of emphasis on using your environment to your advantage, attacking the most vulnerable points on the body without hesitation, and ending fights as quickly and directly as possible.

As classes progress, expect to be ambushed occasionally, too. Just think of it like a pop quiz.

All classes are one-on-one. Including weapons training is always encouraged, but he's willing to respect a preference for avoiding it.

If you want to join the training roster, you can contact me here for plotting! Bucky doesn't offer open classes ICly, but I'd be happy to work something out for anyone who's interested.

Current training roster: Darcy & Billy
