Wrestle Me Free, Clean From The War

Falling isn’t as scary as it looks. It almost feels like floating in water would, that same sensation of being suspended, but everything around you is moving too. It’s stagnant, like time has slowed to a crawl. It’s quiet, too. Surreal. It’s not scary. Not even the inevitable death waiting below, snapping its jaws at you.

Steve remembers the wind rushing around him as he fell. Remembers the distant screech of metal bending and breaking in ways that metal should never bend and break. He remembers the fiery heat exploding around him, sending debris hurtling in every direction. Most importantly, though, he remembers the wild look on the face of a man he never thought he’d see again. Remembers the way it grew smaller and smaller the further he fell.

The last thing he remembers before he hits the water is wondering if this was how Bucky felt when he fell.

And then he lets the water consume him.

(repost with your answers and tag 20 people)

1) My family calls me ‘pollo’ or ‘pollito’ (i’ve had several nicknames but this one has haunted me for more than 15 years)

2) Mud brown. Like super brown. That gross type of brown, ya’ know?

3) I was born with black hair, but i dyed it… And the sun messed with it. So, now it’s like dark brown-ish with lighter and red-ish color at the ends (when exposed to sunlight) but when i cut it (all) it goes back to black… And it starts changing on its own (i’m pretty sure it’s all the sunlight and chemicals in the different shampoos i use.)

4) I won all my classmates in 5th grade, at doing the most push ups. (How? I don’t know.)

5) blue-green? All the other colors— i don’t know anymore…

6) Any place far away from where i live (nature-wise), metaphysical shops, and libraries.

7) I’m not sure. Chris Pratt can always make me laugh, so there’s that… I still wouldn’t say he’s my favorite though.

8) Sharks, horses, birds, and dogs. (And the rest of the animal kingdom.)

9) I don’t have a favorite, but some songs i would never skip are: Build me up Buttercup — The Foundations Somewhere Beyond the Sea — Frank Sinatra

10) I also don’t have a favorite… But some books that i would recommend to everyone are: • Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West By Gregory Maguire • Tokyo pet shop of horrors By Matsuri Akino (manga)

Thank you so much! You're so sweet. <3
