black holes are only as strong as their stars burned bright - c.k

God is so obviously a man, so the Devil protects her sisters - c.k

okie so i want to talk about the evolution of Tony and Natasha’s relationship, because they couldn’t have gone from “You’re fired.” “That’s not your call.” to Natasha literally siding with him against Cap without some serious bonding

what im saying is i really want a movie dedicated to their relationship so i can wrap my head around her siding with tony - bc there is so much potential that’s wasted in the MCU bc they hate utilizing natasha for anything other than weird romance plots and as their Strong Female Character (TM)

Guess who cut all their hair off? (Hint: it me)

Demon of the night and dork extraordinaire

I want a scene where Matt is at the end of his rope. He’s on the warpath, he’s out for blood. Maybe it’s another Big Bad surrounded by his followers, but Matt doesn’t care. He rips through them like they’re made of paper until he finally comes face to face with the one he came for. The fight is bloody and brutal and Matt is tired - tired of of seeing people get hurt, of being hurt, tired of always being a step behind, tired of having to always walk the path of the righteous and getting nothing but shit for it. 

Matt’s going to kill him. It’s a choice, and he’s made it. His enemy will never hurt anyone again, even if it damns him straight to hell. Matt raises his baton to strike the killing blow and - 

He doesn’t hear the shot coming. So intent on his mission that he misses the telltale click of an assault rifle preparing to fire. For a moment there’s a blaze of pain, but it’s just a graze, a love tap at most. There’s another shot and the bullet finds its way into the Big Bad’s forehead.

“I told you, Red, there’s no coming back from killin’.” Frank says from an adjacent rooftop, already packing up his gun. “You leave that to me. Keep that Catholic soul intact while you still got one.”

They’ve never had a word for what they are. ‘Boyfriends,’ doesn’t hold enough weight, and frankly, getting married would take a lot of time and paperwork - and Fury would have a conniption - so they can’t call themselves husbands. And then one of them hears the term: “soul mates”

Their next interview is insufferable. 

“So how would you describe - ”

“Soul. Mates.” Bucky says before the Fox News bobblehead can even finish. 

“You mean...platonically?” It’s almost sad how hopeful the reporter looks. 

“Spiritually, emotionally, romantically,” Steve cuts in, holding Bucky’s hand pointedly. “Soul mates.”

“We fuck too. All the time,” Bucky adds with a shit-eating grin. The reporter goes green and the network ends the interview on account of “technical difficulties”

Let’s be real thought, no one is going to survive this movie. And I don’t mean us fans in a #ZOMG #ded kind of way. 

In the end, what happens if Steve dies? All fighting aside, he and Tony are friends. They mean something to one another, which is why this is all so tragic. If Steve dies, Tony will never recover. He will almost certainly lock himself away, with nothing but his murderous Iron Man suits for company, drinking himself to death. He will become a shell of his former self, and General Doucheface will get what he wanted: a neutered Avengers. Because you know Natasha and Clint would never forgive Tony - for all Natasha’s desire for regulation thus far, she’s by and large Steve’s friend. She’ll disappear into the ether and Clint will probably go with her, because in the end all they ever had was each other. Not to mention that Bucky will most certainly lose any anchor to his old self and spiral. Worst case scenario, he reverts back to the Winter Soldier without Steve to keep him grounded, and has to be put down.

New scenario: What about Tony? If he’s killed at the end of all this, Steve will be destroyed. In the trailer, he keeps saying that it doesn’t have to be a fight, he keeps apologizing. He doesn’t want to fight anyone, he never has. He’s just unable to walk away and he’s got enough guilt for the entire city of New York. Even with Bucky, he’ll waste away, wishing things could be different, until he’s so hollow and numb that living is just too much effort and he fades entirely. Without Cap and Iron Man, the rest of the team will scatter, and then the world will have to face its fears without them. 

And then something presented by @sokovia. Thanks for this Jenn. And by thanks I mean meet me in the pit. Now, Natasha’s death may seem trivial to the powers that be - I mean, she was a traitor, a spy, and assassin, there was no way she wasn’t going to die bloody - but to Tony and Steve (and me) she’s hope. Hope that people can change, hope that even the darkness can create light. For Steve, she’s a friend and proof that Bucky is going to be okay, and he will never stop mourning her. For Tony, she’s the voice of reason, someone to keep him in check and make sure he takes care of himself. And if she’s gone, they lose hope, and they spiral. Not to mention that Clint will never recover. I don’t give a damn about the farm, if Natasha dies, the heart of the Avengers has been cut out and they all die with her. 

No one survives this war.

Once everything settles, Bucky slips a note under Tony’s door:

Sorry I tried to shoot you in the face. To be fair, you were acting like a jackass.

-B

PS: This was Natasha’s idea. I think it’s stupid. 

PPS: I said we should go a few rounds and just call it even

"Kill the Starks.” Bucky remembers the order. He remembers the deed. He remembers the mangled bodies of Howard and Maria Stark as he executed his mission.

He remembers the punishment for not finishing the job and leaving the child alive. The child that was supposed to be in the car with them.

And he feels the familiar, detached sense of relief as he finally takes aim at Tony Stark and fires. Mission completed.
