He lets himself have this moment of fear because he knows what\u2019s coming, he knows that he\u2019s going to die and he allows himself to accept how scared he really is. He knew what he was getting in to when he made the choice to fight side by side with Steve (because what other choice was there really?), and part of him probably always knew this was how it would end &#8211; he was either going to live for Steve or die for him, the only thing left for him to do was to acknowledge his unhappy ending when the time came.<\/small><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>FRIENDLY REMINDER THAT POSITIONING BUCKY\u2019S SACRIFICE AS HIS CHOICE MEANS THAT IT WAS THE LAST TIME HE EVER GOT TO EXERCISE HIS OWN FREE WILL.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>But this is actually really important, though, looking through a biopolitical lens, because in fact that choice (his choice to sacrifice himself, to die) got taken away from him. His \u201cresurrection\u201d as the Winter Soldier is a denial of his right to die, his right to decide what to do with his life, his body. That type of control is a horror that we tend to think of as a horror above or beyond death; there is something worse than death, and it is losing what we think of as the basic embodied human right of inhabitation of, autonomy over one\u2019s own body. That\u2019s what he\u2019s about to suffer, and it kind of turns this scene from tragedy into horror story.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Holy shit just.<\/p>\n<p>This has been sitting on the edge of my consciousness for a while now and it\u2019s so truly horrible.<\/p>\n<p>And it parallels with Steve (although never as bad, Bucky is everything that could have gone wrong and did go wrong and Steve is everything that could have gone wrong and somehow went almost right) because the same thing happened to Steve, he put himself in the water, he died to save the world and then the world brought him back and he got to see that his sacrifice meant nothing and it\u2019s no fucking wonder he was so willing to let Bucky kill him on the helicarrier he realised too well that you can fight the good fight but the FIGHT NEVER ENDS and Steve is just. so. tired.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>I have been trying to put this into words for a while now.
