Barely Surviving

I feel like the biggest mischaracterization I see of Steve Rogers is that he is this rule following conservative guy. Like no, did we watch the same movies? This man breaks every rule he can. He hates the government. He also is not a bigot at all. He has his own moral code and does everything based on it.

You know what gets me? That smile when Bucky says “Steve”. It’s almost like he thinks he’s dying, or already dead, and this is the last thing he sees: His friend, healthy and strong. He’s happy, but it doesn’t look like he believes Steve is real at first.

#i hate marvel for what their movies do to me#i’m a grown ass woman i should cry over mortgage payments not sad men with superpowers

what if natasha brought tony to the smithsonian and tony was like “nat i really don’t need to see an exhibit on america’s ex golden boy, current fugitive, thanks” and nats like “tony, for once, just shut up and look.” and she takes him to that wall with the videos of steve and bucky and it gets to the iconic smiling and laughing together clip and nat just goes “you ever seen him that happy? i know i haven’t.“ and tony’s like “no, that guy isn’t anything like the quiet and brooding cap i know” and nats like “because that’s not the cap you know. that’s steve. how could you expect him to pick anyone but bucky when none of us make him look like that?”
