All That Was Missing Was The Kiss

I’m not a part of the Captain America fandom. I never have been. So when watching the movies it was never with heart eyes toward any ship.

I watched the individual movies and no particular ship ever really stood out for me. I watched the first Avengers movie. Still no ship. Then I watched Age of Ultron. Still no ship. 

Then I watched Winter Solider. Something I hadn’t done before. Whoa.

This movie is not just a action film, but a love story. I’m at a loss as to how I’m suppose to take it as anything but that, tbh.

Let’s review:

The film starts off with Sam and Steve running. Though it’s clear they know each other, they’ve never really introduced themselves to each other. Yet they already have a catch phrase. Something unique to them. Something that only the two of them would understand. “On your left.” 

So Steve finally says, fuck it, he goes up to Sam, introduces himself. They talk about soft beds, Marvin Gaye, and deeper shit that Steve’s not ready to discuss yet. Then Steve has to go. Natasha needs him. They make heart eyes at each other. Sam let’s it slip where he works. More heart eyes. More flirting. Then Steve is gone. 

Steve goes through some shit. Then he seeks Sam out again. This is classic. Person A watching Person B while they work. He stands in the door unbeknownst to Sam watching him do his things. More heart eyes and maybe even a little awe. He looks so taken with Sam. He’s patient though. Respects Sam’s work. Waits until he’s done. Then he walks up to him.

 This is classic too. Person B is pretty much like; “Oh if it isn’t so and so…” This is exactly what happens here. These are Sam’s exact words to Steve.

They talk some more. “What makes you happy?” they both ask this of each other. Things get deeper. The flirting goes harder. The heart eyes intensifies. 

Steve is hurt, him and Natasha. They have no one they trust, so of course they end up on Sam’s doorstep. This is also classic. Person A thinks of person B in his time of need. I can trust him. I don’t know him that well, but I feel connected to him somehow. There’s a bond there. I want it to be him that I can turn to. Person A shows up on person B’s doorstep bleeding and wounded. 

 They want to keep each other safe. Steve/ person A, won’t ask Sam to fight with him.  Sam/ person B refuses to be pushed  aside, “You need my help. I’m there, end of discussion.” You matter to me now. 

So they fight. They fight together. And of course Steve is tossed through the sky, and of course Sam saves him, catches him and delivers him back to solid ground. I mean what else should one expect in a romantic action film? 

Then someone questions it. Questions them. Person B is like. “Fuck that I stand with him and him alone. Sam’s actually words. “Don’t look at me. I do with he does…” It’s like he’s saying: ‘I trust him and only him. If he says we need to do it this way, then that’s the way we do it. My loyalty is with him and him alone.’

Then the talk, because they always have to have the talk. “Do we know what we’re doing? Are we sure about this? I’m with you no matter what, but I think you really need to realize what we’re stepping into here. Sam has that talk with Steve, of course is Sam. He is person B, the love interest, the only one person A will even remotely listen too. They talk. Steve has to do this. Sam says okay and they suit the fuck up.  

So person A is hurt and of course person B is by their bedside with sweet soulful music playing in the background. Steve is in the hospital. Sam is by his side. He’s got the Marvin Gaye Album that they talked about when they first met playing in the background and he’s just there for him. 

Of course person A wakes while person B is looking away. Person A then has the chance to give the mother of all heart eyes while person B’s not paying attention. ‘You’re here. You stood by me. I can trust you. You believe in me. We believe in each other. Who else would I want by my side but you? What other face would I want to see when I first wake up, besides yours?” 

Then the catch phrase. Literally the first thing out of Steve’s mouth when he wakes up is, “On your left,” and he gets the heart eyes to end all heart eyes from Sam when he says it. ‘He’s back. He’s going to be okay.”

Then The end. They stand side by side. Sam is like, ‘I got you. I stand with you.’ This film begins and ends with Steve and Sam side by side. Of course it does. It’s their fucking love story.

Then I look at Age of Ultron again. Sam is Steve’s plus one. Of course he is. Sam is like , ‘This is your life. You life is crazy.’ Heart eyes, smiles and Then. “Home is home.” The way Steve looks at him when he says that. Like, ‘Like home is you. You’re my home.” How else am I suppose to take that look. Or that whole damn conversation, tbh.

Then there’s the comics. That shit is not even subtle. 

“I don’t want to live in a world without you in it.” (not sure if this one is word for word. I can’t seem to find the quote now. Does anyone have it?”)

“Here was a man, I’d been as close to as two human beings could be.”

‘A look, only one passes between them… But they know what’s left unsaid .” 

The list goes on. 

So I ask you. How else am I suppose to take the Steve/Sam relationship, but as a canonical romance?

Also in the comics when Sam says he and Steve are locked at the soul.

yall i cant stop thinking about something that came up in an ask from yesterday. that last scene in cacw (or all of cacw in general)??? is like. the defining moment of sam and steve’s undying love for each other, no matter how you read it. it’s been said in countless interviews that sam is there for steve, that he’d follow him anywhere, that he’s loyal and he believes in steve which is why he’s there. but we never really look at their relationship from steve’s perspective? and civil war really offered that to us.

I think with Sam and Cap there’s never a question of how far they’re willing to go because they take care of each other, they look out for each other and they believe in each other. I think Sam becoming an avenger and Sam being on team Cap is not because of his relationship with Cap but because of what happened in Captain America: Winter Soldier. He literally, when fighting SHIELD, lost all of his faith in these government agencies because it was infiltrated by HYDRA. So you never know when someone has your best interests in mind and he knows Cap does. - Anthony Mackie

To the MCU fandom,     Do you know who Steve had the most natural and easy flirtation/chemistry with, the textbook perfect meet-cute, the person he immediately clicked with in a ride or die way, the person whose judgment he never questions, the one person he *always* listens to, the person who signed on to his massive drama and nearly fatal lifestyle w/o being asked, who he stares at with naked longing when he thinks the other person isn't looking, the person who gives up their whole life for Steve w/o hesitation or regret, the person he trusts completely after knowing them for like one day, who takes down a govt agency with him, becomes a fugitive from the WORLD with him/for him, who gets locked in a super prison for him, gladly, w/o trial or knowing when they'll get released (if ever)????
