Losing his real arm is a major turning point for Bucky. He was used to his body being a weapon, and now a part of that weapon is gone. This forces him to confront his own mortality and limitations. He might become more empathetic towards others who have disabilities or who have suffered loss. It also gives the writers of the fanfic a chance to explore his resilience. He can either let this loss break him or use it as a springboard to become a more complex and well - rounded character.
One plotline could be Bucky's struggle to regain his combat skills with a new prosthetic arm. He might face challenges in getting used to its functionality and power. Another could be his search for the people responsible for his arm loss, leading to a revenge - driven storyline. Or perhaps he has to deal with the psychological impact, like nightmares or flashbacks, which could be a major part of the plot as he tries to overcome them.
The memory loss can be a catalyst for Draco's growth. He has to re - evaluate his identity. He might discover that he was not truly happy with the person he was before. As he struggles to remember, he could develop traits like humility and empathy. For instance, if he was once arrogant towards house - elves, during his memory loss, he could interact with them in a more equal and kind way. When his memory comes back, he may choose to keep these new - found qualities, changing his character for the better.
Well, losing an arm would definitely have a huge impact on his ninja abilities. His ability to perform hand seals would be severely hampered. For example, complex jutsus that require multiple and quick hand seals might become impossible for him to execute. Also, his balance in combat could be affected as he's used to having two arms for movement and defense. He'd probably have to rely more on his legs and other non - arm - related skills.
With his friends, it might strengthen their bonds. They would be more protective of him and help him in his daily tasks. For example, Sasuke might become more empathetic towards Naruto's situation. His relationship with Hinata could also change. Hinata would be very concerned and would constantly be by his side, offering emotional support.
It could make Sasuke more protective of Naruto. Sasuke has always had a complex relationship with Naruto, and seeing him lose an arm would stir up some deep emotions. He might feel guilty, especially if he was somehow involved in the incident that cost Naruto his arm. This could lead to Sasuke staying closer to Naruto and being more open about his feelings.
The loss would probably make Ash more humble. He had been confident in his abilities, but this setback would show him that there are always stronger opponents out there. He may also become more empathetic towards other trainers who have experienced losses. He might start to share his own experience of losing to encourage others. This could be a big step in his character growth as he becomes more than just a battle - hungry trainer.
Maybe he starts to train with one - armed techniques. He could learn from other one - armed ninjas if there are any in the fanfiction world. His friends would also play a big role. They might encourage him to keep going or help him in his training.
In the fanfic, Naruto's character could also become more introverted as he copes with the loss of his arm. He might need time alone to come to terms with his new reality. However, this solitude could also give him time to reflect on his life and his ninja path. He may emerge from this period with a new sense of purpose, perhaps focusing more on non - combat aspects of being a ninja, like diplomacy or teaching. This would be a significant shift from his previous more action - oriented self.
In Bucky Barnes torture fanfics, his character development is usually a journey from a shattered self to a more whole one. The torture has left him with deep - seated traumas, but through interactions with other characters, like Sam Wilson who offers friendship and support, he gradually overcomes his inner demons. These fanfics show his evolution from a victim defined by torture to a hero in his own right, with his own will and agency.
Maybe Sam had his own urgent matters to attend to and couldn't stay with Bucky. Or perhaps he thought Bucky would be better taken care of by the friend in that situation.
