I don’t show Sam enough love.

another version here

[redflower42]

OK, but the end credits scene of Thunderbolts took place 14 months after they were announced as the New Avengers - and Bucky was talking about Sam being angry at him.

Meaning Sam had been angry at Bucky and distancing himself from him for over a freakin’ year.

And besides the Thunderbolts, Sam was the only other friend Bucky had.

He was his closest and his best friend (and husband cuz come on - ) after Steve died.

And he had basically cut ties with Bucky because of the New Avengers thing.

Can you imagine how lonely Bucky must’ve felt without him??? Like yes, he has the Thunderbolts…but they’re not Sam Wilson.

Bucky and his new team were moved into the tower as a way of giving them all a home, but really - it just took Bucky away from his.

Because his home hadn’t been a place, it had been a person. Bucky’s home had been Sam.

i know most people kinda see joaquín as the yapper and bob as the quieter-listener one, but i’d like to imagine that they kinda alternate…hehehe… when they first see each other, joaquín is doing most of the talking, but as bob warms up he takes over. joaquín is talking about anything and EVERYTHING, good spots for cheap eats around the neighborhood and show(s) he’s watching. bob is intently listening, quipping little “oh..i didn’t know that”s, “no way.”s and “really?”s into the conversation.

then bob starts. he talks about teaching himself the wiring around the building, petty drama between the thunderbolts and late nights catching up on the shows joaquín was talking about earlier.

it alternates until they melt into each other, giggling and laughing and shushing themselves. joaquín likes to call bob before missions to yap out his nerves, and bob likes to call joaquín on nights when he’s all existential and weird. its nice having someone to talk to that isnt your boss.. or didn’t see you shoot up into the sky like a rocket after finding out you had powers through guns being shot straight at your stomach. bob thinks that would probably change your perspective on someone. joaquín thinks they know just enough about each other. but he wouldn’t mind knowing more.

scarlet johannson did not spend an entire decade fighting tooth and nail to make natasha into an actual character instead of the sex object writers wanted her to be while also having to endure the most vile, misogynistic questions during press tours for people to now disrespect her legacy because yelena is 'better'. the only reason why that is, is because of everything scarlet went through. natasha singlehandedly paved the way for every other female superhero in the mcu and don't you forget that

So how is everyone feeling right now

[redflower42]

When bob turns void it’s cause he LITERATELY DIES (both times, medical study and kill switch)

Bob turns sentry after outside forces coax him into that mindset and those actions- AND last he remembers he was just shot several (probably hundred) times.

Bob will not randomly sentry/void. The team does not walk on eggshells around him. He does not threaten sentry/void, they do not cater to the possibility of sentry/void. He is hella resilient and does not void out at a break up or argument (we literately see him be normal in the vault)

They care about him. They love him. They don’t treat him poorly. But he’s not a time bomb, nor a weapon, or a naive child, and certainly is not intentionally evil one wrong word away
