you know what? fine, i'll say it. i like john walker. does that erase the fact that he's an asshole? no. is he my captain america? absolutely not. has he fully redeemed himself? not even close.
but yeah, i would die for him.
i subscribe to the hc that any time an enemy disarms bucky, the thunderbolts new avengers immediately start calling them an ableist until they profusely apologize before resuming the fight
thats my fat old man!!
context: @sexyman-contest-2025
it's really cool to see how deeply people care about this franchise! i just want to say that i'm a casual marvel watcher who happens to ship sambucky so this post isn't anything serious
anyone who disagrees with this post is welcome to express their opinion, but i want to establish that i'm not dying on this hill or anything
if my boyfriend started leading a group called the new avengers that worked with the government (and included the government appointed captain america) after i fought alongside the former captain america for the belief that the avengers should not work with the government due to fear of limitation and corruption AND was chosen by the former captain america to be the next captain america, i too would be fucking pissed
OH. MY. GOD.
Who are these divas???
mr. green is a twink sorry not sorry
my problem is that thunderbolts* feels like a slap in the face to brave new world, okay? like, the mental health representation and found family dynamics are gold, but going against everything sam AND steve stood for (and risked their lives for, especially for bucky) feels so anti-bnw -- maybe even anti-captain america?
the way my respect for an actor skyrockets when i hear that they actually research their character and reference the original source material, especially when explaining why they're unhappy with what the director/script is doing with said character
and if i started learning german because of erik lehnsherr and russian because of bucky barnes
being accused of shooting jfk isn't an entry level requirement to be my comfort character but it sure is an interesting bonus
the new avengers working with the government is like the x-men working with the cia

i read this in their voices
Doof: "You see Perry The Platypus, about a few weeks ago I entered The Tumblr Sexyman Showdown. It's a contest for only the sexiest of men-- now now, Perry the Platypus, before you roll your eyes at me, it's not the conventional kind of sexy, no, no! It's the pathetic, the silly, the unconventional! Only for the acquired tastes. Like me~!! So I joined in, and you wouldn't believe it! I plowed through the competition! Bracket after bracket, I dominated the votes. That is, until the final round... when I was put up against Stanley Pines of someplace called 'Gravity Falls'-- for some reason, even though he claimed to come from a place called Gravity Falls and I come from the Tri-State Area, the competition listed me to come from someplace called 'Phineas and Ferb', and I have no idea where that is or who those people are--I was kicked to the curb! He won by a landslide! Well, not literally though, that's a metaphor--that's how Bill Cipher won against Jack Frost from Rise of the Guardians, and I KNOW that place doesn't exist--b-but anyway, Stanley won and I only got second. And it doesn't make any sense! Sure, Stanley is similar to what the true Sexyman is, but he's not the greatest! For one thing, he's not that pathetic--jeez, if anyone is the most pathetic here, it's me! He's not that tragic-backstory-able, or anything, he--and worse yet, he's HOT! I mean, he's not that much of an acquired taste! Sure, he's older, but that's it!! Clearly, the people are biased! Which is why I made...THIS!"
Doof: "BEHOLD! THE UNHANDSOME-INATOR!!!!"
Doof: "With this, I can make anyone ugly--so ugly that their ugliness is JUUUST too ugly to be a Tumblr Sexyman! But too handsome to be truly ugly...and I can also tweak it to make myself just a little more handsome, hehe! With this, I will make the ENTIRE TRI-STATE AREA Sexyman ugly, and shoot myself so I will be the most acquired-taste-handsome out of all of them, winning the love of all of the TRI-STATE AREA, AND ENACTING MY REVENGE AGAINST THE TUMBLR SEXYMAN CONTEST!!!"
Doof: "--Or wait, come to think of it, this isn't really revenge, I mean, the contest's over and it won't come back until next year so this scheme prooobably should've been postponed until then... not to mention this inator isn't exactly that tweaked, it's a rushed job and has some...ahaha...side effects...unless I CRANK UP THE RANGE OF THE INATOR!"
Doof: "Yes, Perry The Platypus, I will become the most tumblr-sexyman handsome by proxy in all of the tri-state area AND GRAVITY FALLS, OREGON!!!"

*Stan, reading the paper, suddenly looks up.*
Stan: "Something just happened."
*beat*
Stan: "...Eh. Who cares. Worse has happened in this town. It's probably the heebie jeebies from that German guy from a couple days ago, eugh."
Stan: "Worth it for the prize money, though. I'm still the sexiest man on all of Tumblr! Ahaha!"
*beat*
Stan, still grinning: "...whatever that is."
*A beat. Then the door to the Mystery Shack slams open. It's Ford.*
Ford: "Stanley! I'm back!"
Stanley: "Hey, sixer. Back from another one of your little adventures?"
Ford: "I suppose you could call it that! Ever been to the tri-state area? There are hundreds of anomalies there! Did you know that all the platypuses are teal there?"
Stanley: "Yeah, yeah...well, make sure to tell me later. I'm reading the paper."
Ford: "Well, don't get too absorbed. We're going to Italy tomorrow, remember? We're visiting the Vatican! Lots of great things to explore there! We might even see the pope!"
"who thought it was smart to make sam wilson the next cap-" steve rogers, now shut up.
my two favorite morally grey former lab rat nazi hating misunderstood metal powered old men are going to be in the same film if anyone cares
by this time next year, doomsday will be out and i'll have finished another year of college. idk how to feel about that.
"If you use em dash in your works, it makes them look AI generated. No real human uses em dash."
Imaging thinking actual human writers are Not Real because they use... professional writing in their works.
Imagine thinking millions of people who have been using em dash way before AI becomes a thing are all robots.
REBLOG IF YOU'RE A HUMAN AND YOU USE EM DASH
someone said that stucky is unrequited love and sambucky is friends to lovers and i agree
why the actual fuck would any writer with a shred of dignity use ai to write their stories
THE POINT OF WRITING IS TO HAVE CREATIVE CONTROL AND YOU'RE FREELY GIVING THAT TO ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE???
i can't see thunderbolts* for two weeks so if the whole uproar of a sambucky divorce is actually just from one heated fight i will be so pissed
imagine not only having no taste but also actively hating on something harmless that others enjoy
One day, that's all I ask. One day where people who don't like SamBucky stay out of the motherfucking SamBucky tag. You pricks are insufferable. Go talk about shit you actually enjoy and stay the fuck outta ours.
you know what? fuck trying to avoid thunderbolts* spoilers because i am NOT going to wait to defend sam wilson (or anthony mackie) while people drag him for some bullshit reasons
i can't do another divorce c'mon marvel LET THEM BE MARRIED
cherik level of toxicity where charles will verbally convince a potential love interest to not fall for erik and erik will physically threaten anyone who looks at charles (they're still divorced)
actually i don't want patrick stewart and ian mckellen to make out in doomsday because that would make the ship canon
i want marvel to write their silly scenes and do whatever (because they will anyway) and let the fandom handle the rest because the fun of shipping isn't forcing marvel's hand, it's watching them squirm as we point out not so subtle gay subtext between characters they actively try to sell as "just really close best friends"
if i had a nickel for every time bucky barnes was love with captain america i would have two nickels which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice and he still doesn't have a love interest
“ships should at least make sense.” no. ships can make sense, sure. but they’re just fictional characters we play with for fun. they’re fantasies, not a fucking thesis paper. so no, they don’t always have to make sense. they just have to make you happy (or horny).
let people enjoy (fictional) things however they want to enjoy.
Sam Wilson cameo in Thunderbolts* where all he does is fly in, says “you forgot your lunch” while handing Buck a paper bag, kisses him on the cheek, and then leaves (the entire audience cheers)
the thing is, stucky is this complex heartfelt story that spans into the literal next century of a bond between two souls that runs so deep in which bucky truly sees steve for who he is pre-serum and steve still believes in bucky even after over half of a century of him being brainwashed into the winter soldier, and through the decades of torture and reset bucky still recognizes steve and saves him with the inner strength born out of love, where tragedy and hope find middle ground because despite the time, the trauma, and loss, because these two truly are with each other til the end of the line
and then sambucky has this snarky, rather childish dynamic with the underlying sincerity of care and respect in which sam treats bucky for the man he is in the present and actually gains his trust over hard stares and ridiculous banter and it shows in moments such as their hug when bucky actually closes his eyes and the trust he has in sam is evident and where sam didn't know bucky pre-winter soldier so he has no expectations for who bucky should be or how he's changed since the 1940s and gives bucky advice on how to find closure on his past and they roll around and have staring contests and oh yeah bucky literally tells sam "i love you"
