sometimes im fine and okay and normal and then i remember the way sam said “what about bucky?” in the softest, most tender of voices and i completely lose it. back to square one
something that makes me giggle is how people write sambucky as if they’re like teenagers or in their early twenties when sam is probably early-forties and bucky is like 122 years old.
here's the thing, I love sambucky and bucky but ngl I'm a bit relieved that his appearance in Captain America 4 is going to be little to none because I think we've learned our lessons from TFATWS. some bucky stans can get a bit too much sometimes and they took away wrong messages from the show
also respect sam wilson as captain america and leave steve rogers in the past please (that's where he wanted to be anyway according to the Russo brothers)
comparing sam to steve to "validate" sam as a person/hero/partner
making sam aggressive or abusive
barely (if any) sam at all
barely (if any) sambucky at all
breaking them up halfway through just for sam to disappear completely
if your fic is a thinly veiled story about stucky with sam as a replacement for steve that bucky has to "settle" for, don't fucking tag it as sambucky. hell, don't even write sam. the blatant disrespect and racist use of his character seems to be getting more prevalent right now (again), and im so sick of seeing that shit. write your damn stucky fic and fuck away from sam.
