Character Name: Clint Barton
Canon: MCU
BUT I HAVE TO STRESS THIS IS AN AU. Where slave auction meme got out of hand collared slaves are just A Thing in the world and ya boi been one most of his life and has only relatively recently been "freed" and having lots of feelings with/about/for one Frank Castle. There is no magic in this world, but all of the Weird Science of the mcu still exists--Cap and Tony and Hulk are all still things, for instance, but the Odinsons are just normal humans living under king dad, etc.
you can read the ongoing "canon" here and here
Starting Canonpoint: sometime [handwaggles] moderately generally before or around the first time he gets kidnapped by Fisk's goons for a little reeducation and reprogramming
don't worry that I just said the first time

Skills / Powers:
-he's still a trained assassin with an extremely uncanny shooting ability (that is still perfectly normal)
-if it's a weapon chances are good he knows exactly how to use it
-keen tactical mind, good at planning, good at remembering things like layouts, working solo or in a team
-dog is also a skill. em said so.
Flaws:
-prone to taking orders if someone says them loud or firmly enough/going into a bit of a dissociative state when someone actively treats him as a slave
-~personhood issues~
-flight risk, which is to say, prone to getting the hell out of dodge if he's given the opportunity. unless you're frank telling him to flee to canada. then he's fucking velcro I guess apparently
-snarky lil asshole if he can get away with it
-is unfortunately going to make/has made an enemy of someone with a lot of pull and power even while sitting in prison
-literally wears a collar to denote his slave status that also comes with certain restrictions in public mannerisms and social expectations
Themes & Desires:
-what makes a person a person instead of an object or a weapon
-redeveloping skills regarding wanting things and expressing those wants
-look at all these people who suddenly See him and Know him and Love him??? ;;
-here's this guy I feel very strongly for. please don't freak him out. [proceeds to freak him out]
-exploring other worlds and other ways of being for someone who hasn't tasted freedom in actual decades
-LET HIM KILL PEOPLE FOR YOU, you might not have a choice in the matter sorry
-memory dream nightmare sharing deliciousness yum yum eat it up
Canonpoints To AU:
-said first kidnapping
-theeeee bloody potential aftermath of it
-man's gonna gain his legal freedom at some point and simply not know what the fuck to do with himself, maybe help convince him to go explore or do something specific with his life
-getting back in touch with his family?? finding important people in his life??
-collar advocacy??
-the. the second kidnapping if it comes to that.
