super soldiers? more like super losers am i right
'Suit-up' I think I just depressed myself with that title…;A; Anyhoo, yet another messy illustration, which is a companion piece to THIS ONE.
Tony being a dork and entering every room just before Bucky does so he can loudly announce that winter is coming
He is a Stark, after all.
steve raisin an eyebrow and saying
'winter came this morning, buddy.'
steve’s whole life philosophy is basically “on va voir” tbh
"Steve, don’t you join the army, you’ll get yourself killed." "We’ll see."
"You can’t single-handedly raid a Nazi base—your friend’s probably dead." "We’ll see."
"Probably best not to drop your shield," common sense whispers, "Bucky’ll probably kill you—" "WE’LL SEE."
Your work has been a gift to mankind. You’ve shaped the century. I need you to do it one more time.
name one hero who was happy. you can’t.
an assassin is a weapon. a weapon doesn’t choose to kill. the one who wields it does.

The evening light slants in through the window, painting everything Bucky can see with a pale, dusty shade of gold. Natasha sits in the huge easy chair in Sam’s living room, flipping idly through one of the old photo albums Sam keeps inside the ottoman. Bucky, sitting cross-legged on the floor in front of the coffee table, pretends to be more engrossed in the knife he’s whetting than the way the sunlight hits the braids in Natasha’s hair, the red so bright and flamelike he imagines a halo of smoke rising from the crown of her head.

#i never noticed mackie’s little head gesture in the first one#CHOOSING TO INTERPRET IT AS SAM BRACING FOR A ‘YES’#BRACING FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF BEING TOTALLY DISAPPOINTED BY CAPTAIN AMERICA#and then being pleasantly surprised charmed seduced etc
WOOED THE WORD YOU’RE LOOKING FOR IS WOOED
but yeah can you imagine being a black soldier in a world where Captain America and the Howling Commandos existed b/c I can guarantee that the myth that grew up around that team was used by the right wing to stifle things like the Civil Rights movement and race discussions in generalholding them up as a La La La Everything’s Always Been Fine Why Are You Making Race An Issue while at the same fucking time holding Rogers up as this white man ideal and burying his identity as a rebellious punk who basically lived with the phrase ‘fuck the system’ carved on his heart I bet that Smithsonian exhibit had to go through a hell of a revision once Steve actually saw it and was like EXCUSE ME WHAT I bet it didn’t have a fucking thing about Gabirel Jones or Jim Morita so here Sam is confronted by this man who is everything white America thinks men should be and everything he has been explicitly and implicitly told his entire life that he *couldn’t* be and can you imagine hearing from this guy that he has just as much contempt for the good old days as you do even if Steve’s reply doesn’t address the things you want him to the relief of that must be like pulling a bad tooth to know that Fox News was wrong about Steve Rogers (and on another note to know that Steve Rogers thinks you’re cute) Sam’s morning is going pretty good (via leupagus)
i want the d(vd copy of winter soldier already like damn i’ve waited long enough)
