Recs and Reviews
This is a story from Steve’s point of view about waking up in a box. It’s a pretty good hurt/comfort, gen story, that is mildly case adjacent. I really like that the author didn’t pull any punches, didn’t gloss over some of the nastier side effects of being trapped in a confined space for many hours. Oddly it actually reminded me a lot of the pilot episode of the original series from the 70s. There was some sensory deprivation in that episode as well and I wonder if maybe the author has seen it. It’s a pretty well contained (ehehe) fic, without a lot of aftermath or even a lot of reaction but it was still a good read. I really enjoyed the author’s ability to get Steve’s POV across while sounding so authentic. The struggle not to panic balanced very nicely against the fact that he was trapped. In a box. With no memory of getting there. Or idea if the team could help him.[1]
