IT WAS STEVE’S NOTEBOOK

oh or how about the time when he realized that bucky had been alive the whole time and was brainwashed into being a weapon for HYDRA and when bucky tried to literally kill him, steve didn’t move. he didn’t fight. he just took it. because that was his friend and he knew he was still in there and he was right and would’ve drowned if it hadn’t been for bucky. remember that?

or how about the years that steve spent afterward looking for him? and then the way that steve broke the law several times to protect bucky once he found him again because he trusted him and wanted him back and wanted to help him?

oh! wait! remember when steve became a literal wanted man and was a vigilante for years because he was protecting bucky? and how happy steve was to see bucky in wakanda again? how they were finally reunited and then that same day, steve watched bucky turn into dust right before him? and had to live five more years without him? and then after five years he was finally back and they could finally be there for each other?

oh but wait. remember how steve threw all of that in a back alley del taco dumpster and said peace out y’all i’m going back to a woman i kissed once byeeeeee. and he left bucky behind. his best friend. the only person who could relate so deeply to his experiences. steve just abandoned him. leaving him alone. leaving him with no one.

“What, what, what, WHAT!?” the actress recalls thinking. “Because it comes out of f—king nowhere. I’m flabbergasted. Absolutely never saw that coming.” […] “I cried,” Clarke says. “And I went for a walk. I walked out of the house and took my keys and phone and walked back with blisters on my feet. I didn’t come back for five hours. I’m like, ‘How am I going to do this?’” […] “I genuinely did this, and it’s embarrassing and I’m going to admit it to you,” Clarke says. “I called my mom and—” Clarke shifts into a tearful voice to perform the conversation as she reenacts the call: “'I read the scripts and I don’t want to tell you what happens but can you just talk me off this ledge? It really messed me up.’ And then I asked my mom and brother really weird questions. They were like: ‘What are you asking us this for? What do you mean do I think Daenerys is a good person? Why are you asking us that question? Why do you care what people think of Daenerys? Are you okay?’ And I’m all: ‘I’m fine! … But is there anything Daenerys could do that would make you hate her?’” — Emilia Clarke, Entertainment Weekly

“We think of men as antiheroes, as capable of occupying an intense and fascinating moral grey area; of being able to fall, and rise, and fall again, but still be worthy of love on some fundamental level, because if it was the world and its failings that broke them, then we surely must owe them some sympathy. But women aren’t allowed to be broken by the world; or if we are, it’s the breaking that makes us villains. Wronged women turn into avenging furies, inhuman and monstrous: once we cross to the dark side, we become adversaries to be defeated, not lost souls in need of mending. Which is what happens, when you let benevolent sexism invest you in the idea that women are humanity’s moral guardians and men its native renegades: because if female goodness is only ever an inherent quality – something we’re born both with and to be – then once lost, it must necessarily be lost forever, a severed limb we can’t regrow. Whereas male goodness, by virtue of being an acquired quality – something bestowed through the kindness of women, earned through right action or learned through struggle – can just as necessarily be gained and lost multiple times without being tarnished, like a jewel we might pawn in hardship, and later reclaim.”

@kat-lives yes!!! He makes this face when he sees it:

at one point bucky stops helping steve though. he’ll say he ran out of knives after some butt-kicking action. or he’ll plainly say he doesn’t have any. either way, it’s a total lie, he definitely has at least two more somewhere on him. 

Steve must’ve broken so many god damn nails over the years trying to jam his fingers underneath. That boy needs a manicure.

It’s like one of the powers that comes with being a Spider-Person is gravity disappears as long as they are stuck to something.

Look at PeterB and Gwen! Just casually crouching upsidedown off the ceiling while Miles and PeterNoir hang on with an arm and feet in the usual crawl pose. All 4 of them are completely nonchalant and comfortable.

And then I think about PeterB and Miles walking horizontally up and down the side of a building earlier in the film like their bodies had no pull towards the ground. Peter’s jacket did, and Miles slipped around for a while, but otherwise their bodies just went with the physics you’d associate with walking and moving traditionally with gravity as a factor.
