It was a scene from the point of view of a character with PTSD, set immediately following the part of canon where he returns to the exact location where most of his trauma occurred. If I were to draw a graph where the Y axis represents being more mentally unwell, and the X axis represents time since the end of the original trauma, then I might draw a line sloping shallowly downward as it heads further right, with a bump in the middle. The fic would be that bump. It has its own beginning, middle and end.<br /><br /><span class="cut-wrapper"><span style="display: none;" id="span-cuttag___1" class="cuttag"></span><b class="cut-open">(&nbsp;</b><b class="cut-text"><a href="https://access-fandom.dreamwidth.org/65275.html#cutid1">I hear bad things about H/C, and I think this fic might be H/C</a></b><b class="cut-close">&nbsp;)</b></span><div style="display: none;" id="div-cuttag___1" aria-live="assertive"></div><br /><br />Because I feel uncertain about this, I would like to invite the thoughts of anyone with relevant experience or information.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=access_fandom&ditemid=65275" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments tag:dreamwidth.org,2009-08-04:434266:64120 sasha_feather 2013-04-09T18:06:14Z 2013-04-09T18:06:14Z public 4 Posted by: <span lj:user='sasha_feather' style='white-space: nowrap;' class='ljuser'><a href='https://sasha-feather.dreamwidth.org/profile'><img src='https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png' alt='[personal profile] ' width='17' height='17' style='vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;' /></a><a href='https://sasha-feather.dreamwidth.org/'><b>sasha_feather</b></a></span><br /><br />Myke Cole: <a href="http://mykecole.com/blog/2013/03/what-ptsd-is">What PTSD Is</a> (and isn't)<br /><br />Excellent post.
