Summary: Steve’s discovery of Google and a late night search highlights the possibility of him having an eidetic memory - mental images having unusual vividness and detail, as if actually visible. Not long after his discovery, the vivid image of Olivia in his mind no longer matches the woman in front of him; her smile no longer reaches her eyes and he wants to help in whatever way he can.

Warnings: talk of depression, feelings of depression, angst, comfort (I hope), language.

Hello! I know some people are having a difficult time lately so I thought I would write a quick fic for anyone who needs it. The reader is struggling with depression and the boys come in to help. This could be read as platonic or romantic. 

———————–

Your body ached even though you hadn’t exerted yourself in days, sore muscles making themselves known. Your skin felt tight but loose at the same time as if it had been stretched to its maximum and then laid back onto you, left to shrink back to its normal size. There was nothing wrong. Nothing that you could fix anyway. You just felt tired. Worn. Used. Your whole being begged you for relaxation and sleep in the day, which you tried to give it at night. In the darkness, however, your mind soared and plummeted into its highest and lows of anxiety and depression. A roller coaster that you couldn’t control or alter.

Comforting and sweet 💜 I wish I had a Sam or Dean for my down days.

Steve Rogers hadn’t been Captain America for very long before he crashed into the ice. The one person, Dr. Abraham Erskine, who could educate him on his new abilities and limitations had been killed before he could pass on any of his knowledge or theories. Howard Stark had done the best he could, but it was basically trial and error to truly understand the effects of the serum. Steve had, essentially, become a science experiment to monitor and test.

After he’d been defrosted, the world had changed so much that he was thankful they no longer wanted to test his abilities. They left him to his own devices and used him as muscle when they needed it. But the internet meant he had an abundance of knowledge and answers at his fingertips that he’d never had before. After a fourth consecutive night of vivid nightmares that left him weary, guilt-ridden, and exhausted, he self-diagnosed himself as having an eidetic memory.

When he read the explanation on Google, it made perfect sense to him. Eidetic memory: relating to or denoting mental images having unusual vividness and detail, as if actually visible.

Aww, this is so angsty sweet. I’m so sorry that you’ve been struggling lately! I know exactly how it feels, and you captured it so well. Plus, I’d absolutely love to use Steve as a weighted blanket. Mine’s not quite heavy or warm enough, lol.

I really feel for both characters in this story, but especially Steve. I have a semi-eidetic memory, so I can remember calendars and pages of notes and stuff like a visual image. It really helped in school, haha, but I can’t imagine that happening with every memory. Some things are better left in the past for sure.

Comments reblog.

So glad people can relate. I’ll be totally honest I was worried about posting because that whole culture of if you haven’t experienced it don’t write about it, I was worried people would think I was being dramatic but like I said this is my personal experience with depression.

Yeah the memory thing would be both a blessing and a curse depending on the circumstances 😘

Fuckkkkk this was just so goddamn sweet!! I’m happy they have each other to both get and receive comfort. Loved the way Steve was with Olivia, the way he said he’d help her and be there for her, especially as her own human weighted blanket. I loved this.💕💕💕💕💕

Bailey’s

au!Sam WInchester x Reader comfort fic (the au is anywhere Sam gets to be happy) 600 words, fluff, kissing, alcohol, cozy warm self indulgent ooey gooey sweet fluff, donuts

Comfort fic prompt and soft Sam from my best @awesomesusiebstuff​ Preread and picspiration from @mskathywriteswords​

A lazy Saturday all to yourself was a rare luxury. For once, you didn’t have to work, didn’t have anything to do or have anyplace to go. The only thing better than a Saturday all to yourself was a Saturday with your boyfriend, Sam. But he had to work, so your plans together were for tomorrow. Today was all for you. 

You had a new book by a favorite author that you had been saving until you had time to really dig in. But first you went into the kitchen and started a pot of coffee. Then you took a long shower, luxuriating in the feel of hot water on your skin. Afterwards you used some expensive lotion Sam had gifted you before slipping into a clean, comfy tank and shorts.

The late morning air was still cool on your bare arms and legs as you hurried into the kitchen for some hot coffee, pausing just a moment before you grabbed the bottle of Bailey’s and topped off your drink. You took your mug and some matches with you back to the bedroom. You lit the candles on your dresser before settling down on your bed.

You pulled the covers up over your lap, your thick comforter and favorite soft throw blanket. You arranged your pillows just so. Taking a big gulp of your coffee, you settled back and cracked open your book.

This story is beautifully written; it’s raw and heartbreaking but filled with hope. Honestly, this made me tear up and my heart ache.
