//kintsugi scars au where every wound (physical sure, but also could be mental, etc) is filled with gold when someone else cares for the person with the wound, and where wounds become scars when there isn’t anyone else who cares about or for them
bonus:
intentional scars are a different color/texture than unintentional ones
*coughs* picture how good gold streaks would look on sam’s skin
Full Name: Samuel Thomas Wilson
Early Life: Sam’s father was a minister who was killed when he was 9 (in some versions of his story it’s 16) when he tried to break up a fight then a few years later his mother was killed by a mugger while she tried to protect him. After their deaths Sam tried to stay on the straight and narrow but he eventually became involved in some criminal activity including working for the mob. After the military, as we know, he went to work for the VA (Veterans Affairs) where he helped other former soldiers cope with their PTSD but what the MCU doesn’t mention is that he also worked as a social worker and at one point tried to run for office in Congress.
How He Got His Powers: Now as we know so far in the MCU Sam does not have powers but originally Sam had the ability to communicate with birds. During his childhood he always had an affinity for birds and actually trained pigeons and had the largest pigeon coop in Harlem. It wasn’t until he became a pilot that he actually developed his powers. While on a mission Sam crashed his plane into a Caribbean Island where he met Cap and his trusted falcon sidekick Red Wing (a falcon). He was captured by Red Skull while on the island and was used as bait for Cap. While he was captured Red Skull used the Cosmic Cube on him and it actually caused his consciousness to fuse with Red Wing’s creating a super-natural mental link between them. Over time Sam was able to harness and train his powers so that he was able to communicate with all birds. Later on T’Challa is actually the one who creates the harness that gives Sam the ability to fly.
Powers: telepathic link to birds, including being able to see through their eyes
Other Abilities: trained in hand-to-hand combat, expert aviator, weapons proficiency, expert marksman, expert tactician, master pilot
Fun Facts:

It takes Anthony almost 30 minutes to put the Falcon Wings on
Sam is the uncle of Jim Wilson who becomes the Incredible Hulk
Mackie actually also works with Veterans with PTSD
Sam has made Tony and Steve repeat praises to him so he could make them his ringtone
In most versions Sam rivals Tony in intelligence and is considered a genius in tactical planning and preparations and is said to have contingency plans for if any of his teammates ever turn evil or succumb to mind control
While he was involved with the mob he went by the name Snap Wilson
Sam was the first African-American superhero
After Sam was announced as the new Captain America, Stephen Colbert briefly (one issue) took over the mantel of Falcon
In the most recent comics of him as Cap, he has a relationship with Misty Knight
Personality Traits: level headed, has a sense of duty, fights for what he believes in, loyal, can occasionally lose focus when impressed by something, anxious, eager to please, cocky at times

Winter Soldier BTS clips by ET. The Cap and Bucky fight is so fast it’s visually impressive - raw. This isn’t edited and sped up. The stunt coordinators and actors deserve major kudos for that.
