honestly pissed that when everyone came through the portals in endgame bucky got like two seconds of screen time ??? fuckin drax and star lord got cool entrances but we only see bucky for a split second. And he’s just ?? walking with a gun?? and why don’t we get to see steve’s reaction to bucky’s return? bucky is literally the love of steve’s life
As I've always said, I really hate the fact that Marvel doesn't give Bucky the recognition and importance he undoubtedly deserves. It was bad enough that they pushed his arc of amendments in TFATWS to the background and kept linking him with the name of the Winter Soldier, which I always found extremely offensive. Bucky deserves to be recognized as the great hero he is, not just a sidekick... Marvel has not done him justice...
I know it was originally planned that Bucky would be the leader of the Thunderbolts like Steve was the leader of the Avengers. But the script had to be changed because the ending was too dark. I don't even want to imagine what the original idea was...
If this new version is in order to keep Bucky safe, I'll take it without a second thought.
something i love is how Steve Rogers canonically takes after his mother. both appearance wise and in terms of his ideals
too bad the mcu's powers that be didn't care to explore steve or bucky's backstories beyond catws, or else we could've gotten an actual appearance from Sarah, but that's ok future projects can fix this /copium
but anyways Steve is canonical Momma's Boy, I wish marvel would remember lol
now if only marvel could also remember that Bucky Barnes is a protector and steve's guardian angel with a shotgun (or i guess sniper rifle, during the war)
cuz if marvel did then they could be genius and retroactively give us flashbacks/scenes in the past that put Bucky back there with little Steve and show interactions between Bucky and Sarah and have Steve's mom thank him for looking out for her fighter of a son, and also retroactively include scenes of Bucky's family reacting to their kid choosing to pick up the disabled little bullied Irish kid and decide he must protect hehe
there's too much good shit there that sets up the true nature of Bucky and Steve's friendship, which i feel like marvel writers kinda forgot over the years and replaced it with caricature-ish flat understanding of both Bucky and Steve, so such scenes would be good to remind writers and the audience of why they've been caring about each other and give insight into their parents
Am I the only one who gets the vibe that, quite apart from wanting to unravel any plot-threads which undermine the specialness to Steve of the Token Female they bothered to put in the Cap movies... they don't want Steve to be a Mammy's Boy, cuz they see that as less acceptably manly and cool?
Like: Tony is allowed to obsess over what his dad thought of him, across multiple movies (and ditto what the Odinson boys thought of Odin's opinion of them) but mothers only matter if, and only while, they're being fridged?
Ditto with Bucky's mother too, now I think about it (at least his dad also gets zero mention or exposure). And it would be so sweet and easy to have flashbacks of kid Steve and Bucky -- it would even save them the hassle of having to pay for the adult stars, to film!
Also can you imagine kid-Bucky, already a worrier, asking Sarah what Steve's dad died of and finding out he died from having bad lungs and this just unlocking a whole new level of nightmares for him about Steve and his 'fuck you imma fight everyone in this dirty dank alleyway with bad air' attitude. 😩
I absolutely 100% headcanon Bucky and Sarah as having a whole unspoken language between them, as the only two people on earth who get Steve. I always imagined there would be a whole series of private memories -- moments of non-verbal communication between him and her -- which even Steve himself wasn't privy to.
They said Steve should get a hobby to aid him in adjusting to the 21st century. Well, it seems he's made something of a hobby of adopting strays.

Summery: They said Steve should get a hobby to aid him in adjusting to the 21st century. Well, it seems he's made something of a hobby of adopting strays.
[Concept below the cut]
A moodboard for an AU of mine (that I'll hopefully create for some time down the line).
Basically, the story is: Steve is still adjusting to the 21st century and living alone in his own apartment. He works with SHIELD and the Avengers but spends most of his time alone.
He finds a stray cat in a park during a morning run and adopts her (Liberty). He has to look after this opinionated and very independent cat used to being a stray while also handling all his other duties... which takes some learning. Setting him further in the path of his rival, The Winter Soldier (Modern Assassin Bucky). They end up bonding over his cat as Steve ends up having to call in Bucky's help (as everyone else is busy with their own stuff). Captain America calling in a villain to cat-sit probably WON'T look good in the press, he knows.
Disaster strikes (A fire), and Liberty goes missing. Bucky is there to help. And Steve ends up with another stray (Justice the cat). Then he rescues another stray (Peace the Dog). Then Bucky and Steve get together (forget the cat-sitting, what would the would make of Captain America getting fucked by a world-wanted assassin). Then possibly Alpine joins the mix???

Clegan (bucky x buck)
John is so love sick for gale you just have to ship them
Hannigraham (Hannibal x Will Graham)
They act like a married couple with Gothic scenes and inuendos
Bat jokes (Batman x Joker)
Idk man something abt villian and hero falling in love despite being the farthest of opposites. And I love their banter where Joker shamelessly flirts with him
Superbat (Batman x Superman / Bruce Wayne x Clark Kent)
Now ik what ur thinking "bat jokes AND superbat how scandalous😱" this one only really applies to their "citizen" forms. I love the rich sugar daddy and kind southern accent trope. Also them in their hero forms are also cute bc batman let's his guard down for him
Zosan (zoro x sanji)
Your honor they're married🙄
Hisoillu
They give off Doberman and black cat energy. And canonically they are married ‼️
Rathelstan (ragnar x athelstan)
The love I have for them hold no words so here are some quotes that made me wanna rip my heart out.
"What do you mean?! You cannot leave...you cannot leave me! I love you...and you're the only I can trust so you must stay"
"I always believed that death is a fate far better than life, for you will be reunited with lost loved ones. But we will never meet again, my friend. I have a feeling that your God might object to me visiting you in Heaven. What am I to do now?"
"I hate you for leaving me. I ache from your loss. There is nothing that can console me now. I am changed, so are you.”
Symbrock (Venom x Eddie)
HEAR ME OUT PLEASE...So um anyways
Spideypool (spiderman x deadpool)
Their banter in the comics is so cute
Soapghost(konig) (Soap x Ghost (x Konig) / Simon Riley x John McTavish (x Konig))

Death's in comics just don't do anything for me. Why would I be sad, they'll come back? Like what you're telling me a big character is done? Dead? Never coming back? Bffr give it a few months.
