Alfred: *barbecuing* How do you want your steak?

Arthur: Well done, lad.

Alfred: *tearing up* R-really? 🥹

Arthur: The steak, Alfred. I want my steak well done.

Alfred: …

Alfred: Oh… right.

"Write for yourself"

Brother, I literally have more than 2 million words sitting in my drafts folder instead of posted on AO3.

I write for myself. I post for community interaction.

You know, the MCU had so many great opportunities to really highlight Sam's pararescue background and flesh out his origin story on-screen.

I'll forever be sad we haven't gotten any flashbacks to him rescueing people in his EXO 7 wings.

Was he still serving when Tony was captured by the Ten Rings people? Could he have been frustrated at potentially getting pulled from his unit so that he and Riley could try to extract some billionaire weapons manufacturer.

Could've shown the times he butted up against authority, where he felt that following the orders given were the wrong move and wasn't right. (Something that tied into "Well, the number of people around here giving orders is down to zero, so yeah.")

Also, if Sam's EXO program was around before Iron Man 1, then the air force already possessed that kind of flight technology. Was the EXO 7 also Stark tech back then? Or was it developed by the Air Force itself? Did Rhodey know about it? Was he involved in its development as head of the weapons R&D sector? (I headcanon yes, cos I'd like history between Sam and Rhodey.)

Were the wings developed as a weapon/offensive measure first before they were then used for rescue purposes? (the military cynic in me says yes) Could this have been another interesting ethical dilemma Sam thought about.

Or maybe it could've been revealed that after field testing the EXOs in rescue ops, the air force was getting reckless with them and started sending Sam and Riley out on more dangerous offensive missions, and that's when Riley was killed (routine op was just the cover story).

Could've really hammered home the theme of Sam distrusting the government and that they will always end up using any weapon (or symbol) that's given to them. And he didn't want to be used again.

Anyway, this post got really away from me! This started as me thinking 'Gee I wish Marvel showed more of his backstory...the emblem of the 58th rescue squadron is LITERALLY an angel with its arms holding the weight of the world and shielding it with its wings. And if that ain't our angel Sam then...'

What if… what if I drew them more often…👉👈

I JUST NEED TO DRAW THIS

Needed more content like this…

“Sam’s trying to restore order from chaos. And he is a good person but I think he sees issues as too straight forwards sometimes and is a little “by the book”

Seriously, what the hell do y’all even be talking about?

When has MCU Sam ever come off as “by the book”?

The first time we meet him he ends up harboring a couple of fugitives, stealing his wings from the government, and helping those 2 fugitives I just mentioned defeat Hydra.

The next time we see him he’s taking a brief break from secretly searching for a wanted man. By the way, he’s doing this so he can help him, not turn him in.

His third appearance is him quite literally going against the book by being the first person to vocalize their disagreement with the Accords.

Then he’s on the run for a long time, working in the shadows. And why is he doing that? Because, again, he’d literally just gone against the book and defied the government, and now he’s a fugitive.

I could go on, but… why should I have too?

Listen, y’all just have to start thinking before you hit post on this stuff. So many of you are saying so many things that simply aren’t true and don’t make sense, just to support your baseless points and it’s getting old.

Zombie au where ame has to fucking die at the end ☺

oh how i love you sam wilson, my captain america <3
