Just feel like I need to re-introduce everyone to these wholesome behind the scenes- feel free to add:

And my personal favourite:

WOW

In light of all the Steve vs. Stephen posts, here’s something wholesome and cuter:

Stephen doesn’t wanna drive a car or be in a vehicle at all, because, y’know, trauma. But I mean you can’t always portal yourself everywhere all the time either, so Steve teaches him to ride his motorcycle instead. He lends it to the sorcerer whenever he needs to get somewhere— and sometimes, every now and then, just to see him smile.

Because there’s something quietly touching about the way Stephen flies down the streets as though he’s finally free, laughing as his cloak streams out behind him, his dark hair curling happily in the wind.

Everyone on April 27th

Declaring bankruptcy after buying 1 sandwich and 2 books

Steve: *unbuttoning shirt* god, it’s hot in here.

Bucky: yeah, but why are you unbuttoning my shirt?

This!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

“Those poor boys”

“She deserves to be punished too.”

“I’m not saying I support rape, but-”

“Sorry to say - she deserved it.”

“She put herself in harm’s way”

“But if she was fingered, then that’s not rape.”

“She ruined their lives.”

Ok but Sam this episode was just incredible.

Consistently, when faced with difficult situations where conflict is easy, he chooses to communicate. This is something even Steve didn't do all the time (Civil War, or even when he meets himself in Endgame)--but Sam chooses to talk things through and deescalate. To try to understand the other party. To make peace.

When Walker shows up, trying to kill Karli and take Zemo, Sam says no. Karli is vulnerable and struggling with grief, and is fighting against a world that seems hell-bent on keeping her down; Sam understands her struggle and wants to talk her through it. To counsel her.

And that's because Sam is a counselor, but also because he's just a very empathetic person. He cares about people. He cares about Bucky even when Bucky has been harsh towards him (and Bucky begins to soften because of this); he cares about Sharon despite Sharon's bitterness (and Sharon helps them because of this); he cares about Karli despite her crimes and how dangerous she is (and she listens to him because of this). We are shown time and time again that Sam has a remarkable ability to unite people. To bring healing within the pain.

It's Walker, the gun hiding behind the shield, who consistently ruins this. He's angry, arrogant, and divisive, and he knows that he's not as effective as Sam, but he doesn't care. He wants what he wants, and he's willing to do whatever it takes to get it. His reckless actions ultimately end in the death of Lemar and one of the Flag Smashers. If he had listened to Sam, if he had waited, that could have been avoided; but he is one of only two characters who doesn't listen to Sam, who won't trust that Sam knows what he's doing. Even Lemar, Walker's partner, is willing to follow Sam's plan. The only other character that undercuts Sam's plans is Zemo.

Zemo does this because he has an alternate agenda, which we as the audience have been given glimpses into but don't fully understand. But Walker's agenda is clear. He wants to be the top dog. He wants people to respect him, to follow (read: obey) him, to think of him as Captain America. But no one does this. And his lax morals combine with his rage and ambition and lead him to take the super soldier serum. He's doing everything he can to outpace Sam, and in doing so, he bloodies and destroys the legacy he was supposed to uphold.

But Sam has never needed the serum. Sam, like Walker, was a soldier. Now, he's just a man, who knows how to fight. But unlike Walker, he also knows how to lay down his arms. He knows when to listen instead of shouting orders. He knows when to make peace instead of war. He's more than just a soldier, and that's why he doesn't need the serum, or the shield, to lead, to be respected, and to do what's right.

Because Sam Wilson is a good man.

#the sass is strong in this one
