MY BADASS BOY
I have been having an argument with a friend and he says that Marvel is for guys, please help me prove to him that there are lots of women who like Marvel!
Wow. I usually don’t like this crossover but... This. Is. So. Cool
Harry Potter/Avengers AU
The Avengers are a team of Witches and Wizards fighting against the Dark Lord Thanos.
Tony is the mad Wizarding inventor who is a genius with a wand. Bruce is a part-time healer, full-time shape-shifting werewolf. Clint and Natasha are Unspeakables. Thor is a Quidditch beater. And Auror Steve has one hell of a shield charm.
(Oh, and Loki is a Death Eater, which no one is surprised about)

"Shutting off Steve to be Cap" looool
things i like about Steve Roger’s character development in the MCU
probably speaks French and German
probably learned how to drive while at war
DEFINITELY spars with Nat because in every movie he picks up new moves she did in the previous movie. Moves that are made for someone with a small body using physics to fight larger bodied people. Moves that he does with his large body anyway.
his hair slowly becomes more modern with every film, so at some point he probably fingered the ends of his hair and thought about letting the past go before heading down to get a new style
he loves Sam so much
he is the only one who pays serious attention to Sam
he is the only one other than clint who can genuinely be described as “Nat’s Friend”
he likes birds
he’s nice, because when buck’s sadness notebook full of pictures of him was out, he could have embarrassed bucky but didnt, and pointedly drew attention away from the object. and that was very nice.
he draws still life’s and portraits and probably would go to art school if he didn’t have to be Cap
he grew up in a poor/predominantly black area of NY and likely lived with predominantly black people during the jazz age, which warms the cockles of mine heart. And is also probably the reason he was like * sees Sam* “ 👌👀👌👀👌👀👌👀👌👀 good shit go౦ԁ sHit👌 thats ✔ some good👌👌shit right👌👌there👌👌👌 right✔there ✔✔if i do ƽaү so my self 💯 i say so 💯 thats what im talking about right there right there (chorus: ʳᶦᵍʰᵗ ᵗʰᵉʳᵉ) mMMMMᎷМ💯 👌👌 👌НO0ОଠOOOOOОଠଠOoooᵒᵒᵒᵒᵒᵒᵒᵒᵒ👌 👌👌 👌 💯 👌 👀 👀 👀 👌👌Good shit”
Rides a motorcycle in a very dramatic and reckless fashion
Is sad and lonely, but no one seems to notice but Nat and Sam
There is a clear divide between Steve Rogers the man and Captain America and he appropriately treats his body and his power like its on loan from FREEDOM and SWEET LADY LIBERTY. like, if you look close, you can see him shutting off steve to be Cap.
likes grandpa music
makes dad jokes
runs away from being set up with people, and I identify with that heavily
Likes strong/smart/powerful women. would probably get jelly knees if he met Wonder Woman.
Likely a virgin. Very Likely.
Doesnt care about the America of now, with its corruption and horribleness, instead, loves and fights for the America that Could Be, because he sees that America has all the ingredients for Glory and he just hopes that one day we can put them together in the right order and fairness so we can make a pretty good apple pie of freedom and justice.
fights people constantly and has no chill at all
Punches like a Heavy, but is almost as graceful as Natasha
dare him to do something and he’ll probably do it. A v Reckless Man.
he likes to wear khakis and plaid.
But balances that out by lowkey being a leather daddy
he wears so much leather oh my god
Blushes when he gets embarassed
all steve/bucky bed sharing AUs are pretty much canon because that was A Thing Men Did back in the 1930s when poor
an anxious pupper
dat ass
THIS. Thank you.
How is steve =/= cap? I get it but i kinda dont get it.... Im sorry if this infuriates you but i think youre the best person to answer it...
In the MCU, Steve Rogers is a person; Captain America is a character.
In the MCU, Captain America was a character created to sell war-bonds. He was literally a product of war propaganda. Steve Rogers, the person playing Captain America, had no say in what the character said or did, so there is no way he can be portrayed as a reflection of Steve Roger’s opinions or desires. Steve was an actor playing a part and that part was defined by his employers
When Steve went to the European Theatre and started actually participating in the war, he was not playing a character. He kept the name of Captain America, but he was acting as himself. He still had little to no say in how his image was used by the media or the news reels of him filmed in Europe. After the ice, Steve had absolutely nothing except for a character he played in the 40s. At that point, Captain America had 70 some years of mythos piled onto him by literally everyone except Steve Rogers. And literally everyone expected Steve to be Captain America. He didn’t have a choice in the matter, he was awake for a week and was thrown back into active duty, not as Captain Rogers but Captain America. When Fury greeted him as ‘Cap’, that wasn’t a shortening of his title, that was shortening of his stage name.
In the MCU, Captain America has encompassed Steve Rogers to the point people don’t even see Steve Rogers anymore. I know that in the comics, its different, so I totally get the confusion, but no seriously. Steve =/= Cap. Steve can’t equal Cap, he has been given little to no chance to influence the character of Cap, and instead has been forcibly shoved into the role to the point where, in WS, he is fucking contorting himself trying to make his life work.
And it doesn’t because holy crap Steve is miserable
Its pretty obvious isn't it? It's what we were actually told in the film. Nothing wrong with him showing up on the bench. We don't know what device they used for time travel in that reality.
If Steve ended up in an alternate timeline with Peggy, he would have come back through the time machine, not be sitting on the park bench which heavily implies he inserted himself into his own timeline and married his Peggy, thereby wiping out her husband who he saved according to Peggy in a video in TWS. He let Bucky suffer for all those years. It is something I have been thinking about. Steve never lived his life in an alternate timeline because he never came back through the time machine.
I really don’t think the movie supports this. Bruce very specifically says changing the past does not change your future. So that says right there that this theory doesn’t hold water. Otherwise they could have killed Thanos as a baby, like Rhodey suggested, and changed everything. But even if what you say was the case, and Steve went back in the main MCU timeline and left Bucky with HYDRA and married Peggy and erased her life, then the present would be different. Nothing would have happened as it did, so what are the odds Sam and Buck and Bruce would be there just as they were? Would this moment have even happened? Steve would have been old during the fight with the Chitauri and TWS and CW and IW. He could never have done anything that he did. Everything would be wildly different. He couldn’t just change Peggy’s timeline and leave everything else to happen the exact same way to lead them to that moment. All these characters are way too pivotal to the story for that to make sense.
So I think it’s way more likely he created an alternate timeline. Maybe the Hank Pym of his timeline sent him back? Maybe Dr. Strange did it? He already deals in the multiverse. He looked through 14 million iterations of the multiverse in IW, after all. The point is there are explanations that work. Also, sometimes writers explain things after the fact. Sometimes they leave it open for a reason or because they want the audience to interpret it. And sometimes you have to work the plot as best you can around the important, emotional scene you want (old Steve returning to give Sam his shield). It doesn’t always work entirely. But, to me, this does. And Bucky absolutely knew Steve’s plan. Which means to me Steve had his blessing.
Time travel shenanigans always lead to this 😊 Just my take. I have seen some really good meta on alternate timelines and realities and the multiverse. Maybe someone wants to add?
ship: *exists*
me: okay, it's okay i guess---
shippers: *are full of nasty veil hateful people, who will bully anyone who doesn't ship said ship, forces the ship down other peoples throats, acts like they run the fandom, erases and shits on other characters bc of their ship and are all around toxic to a fandom*
me: ya know what? nvm i hate that ship, that ship is awful.
As someone who is in their 40′s and who was around at the dawn on the internet and online fandom - who moved from only being able to find fanfics in zines bought at a corner table at the far end of a con to things like yahoogroups, to ff.net, to livejournal, to message boards, to here, the problem in fandom today is moderation. In the old days anti’s would have been kicked out of a community. They wouldn’t even be allowed a platform to spread their vile. Any person raising shit within a yahoogroups community, within a livejournal community, within a message board, would have been given a warning, then expelled entirely with repeated bad behavior.
Tumblr fandom has forgotten this basic fact:
It’s rude, selfish and intolerant (to the fact that tastes vary) to post hate. Why? Because other people like the thing you are hating on and it upsets them to see that hatred of the thing they like. Would you go up to someone at SDCC wearing a Deadpool costume and tell that person Deadpool sucks? No. That would be an gigantic display of bad manners (and poor parenting on your parents’ part) and a serious display of a character flaw on your part, especially as what constitutes ‘suck’ is subjective (in my opinion Deadpool does NOT suck). It’s putting your need to be an asshole over the feelings of others.
Same principle should apply on Tumblr.
Before anyone hits the ‘post’ button they should stop and consider the following:
Does this post contribute positively to the community?
How will this post affect others?
If the post I am making were about something that I love that someone else was trashing on, how would I feel to read it?
Hate posters are under the impression that only their mindset matters, only their feelings, and they care little for the feelings of others, which is not only intolerant, and selfish, but it is an attitude that should be discouraged at all costs by the rest of the community. It should not be an attitude that is allowed to fester within fandom. I wish more people would publicly call this very poor behavior out.
Freedom of speech is a responsibility as much as it is a right… a responsibility to choose our words wisely and be mindful that this world is a shared one.

I know this is alot of music but each song inspired a chapter or something in the story so they are important. I will also be adding music as I find other songs that inspire me as I go along.
