I go nuts when people suggest that Steve Rogers wouldn’t know how to use a tablet or a computer. People show him slamming his face into a smartphone as though he doesn’t have fingers or some shit. Like. The man is fucking brilliant. He’s a strategist, knows a million languages, worked to break into Hydra bases with his wits not just slamming a shield into things, and y’all think he’d pick up a tablet and be like “HOW DOES THIS WORK YOUNG ONES?!”
no.
Steve Rogers would be left alone with the tablet for a bit. He’d spend some time poking, scrolling, slowly getting the hang of how it works. He’d need a minute to figure out what buttons do and such. And then he’d realize how to bring up the keyboard, how sensitive it is and how careful he has to be. He’d learn how to download apps, where they are, how to open them. He’d learn WHAT apps do what, how to sort them, etc.
Soon, I guarantee you, Steve would have a fully customized tablet with his apps in order of use and a program he found on how to store and lock complicated password keychains.
Steve *chooses* to use that notepad he has and write since he likes doing art, but I’m telling you, Steve probably uses tech better than people give him credit for and I’m not here to shame Steve Rogers for that.

To assure Tony that he is, in fact, here again, he begins to tell stupid jokes, cause, honestly, what is more Bucky than stupid jokes after a fight?
i think we should all start using arabic words and phrases more often because its a beautiful language and also theres not really. english equivalents that have the same vibes
theres also the comedy potential of it. you guys dont know the joy of having your muslim friend text you "hopefully the racists in our city will all get sick and cant go to the protest" and you, as a pasty white guy, responding with "inshallah they get covid"
its a one hit KO every time. its fucking hilarious. theres no english word that has the same effect.
he also once texted me that he got over a mysterious illness he came down with (i think? i cant remember the exact context) and i responded with "subhanallah he is cured"
again, one hit KO. he lost his shit.
what im saying is we gotta normalise arabic. its just a language like any other, and it has some great words. its just like saying "thank god" or whatever, but theres so much variety and nuance. its beautiful
Just two lab partners being regular bros.
YOUR FIC WAS SO GOOD, ITS NO PROBLEM. EQUAL TRADEOFF.
