Cutest thing I have ever witnessed

smurflewis:

My dad and I were in line to take a picture with Sebastian Stan and the person right before us was a man in a near perfect captain America cosplay with his daughter in the most adorable winter soldier outfit that you could tell was hand made to look perfect on her.
When they saw each other I swear their faces were identical. They both looked like it was the happiest moment of their lives and had looks of pure joy as they hugged. He posed with the two, then asked if she wanted another one just them for free, to much grumbling from the convention people. He picked her up and they hugged for a second picture and she gave him a kiss on the cheek. The sound he made was so adorable and he looked like a happy puppy on Christmas. He kissed her on her cheek before letting her down.
As they walked off with both picture voucher cards, I heard the convention workers complaining that he had to stop giving free pictures to kids. I think I might be in love with this man.

Wait, is this…? I had never noticed this

realisation of Steve not needing his help anymore

was this really necessary

It’s also Bucky being more than a little upset that they turned his gentle, harmless friend—who Bucky wanted to PROTECT from the horrors of war—into a fighting machine.

was that really necessary

#*whispers*he’s also probably super annoyed and pissed that it took him going through that procedure for people to give a shit about him#coz bucky saw ‘captain america’ all along#that’s probably most of the anger there man 

WAS ANY OF THIS NECESSARY

It’s the realization that not only has Steve been turned into a fighting machine, but Bucky was never able to actually save him from that. The artistic punk that got his ass knocked about in back alleys all over Brooklyn and had big visions for America and what it stood for got dragged into the same war that he did. (I’ve accepted the headcanon that others have produced, which is that Bucky got drafted and then told Steve otherwise to protect him.)

Bucky knew long before Steve that the world was shitty and cruel and that Steve was a specimen that needed to be protected, that his particular brand of grounded idealism was something worth keeping alive, and it was worth everything to keep it alive. He went off to the war, secure in the knowledge that whatever he was doing over here, whatever the mess of war that was fucking him over, whatever demons he would have carried back, it would have been worth it to come back home to Steve being as pure as he was before the war. And instead, the war’s dragged the best thing Bucky’s known into the dirt and grime and horror movie and it’s not just putting him through fighting, it’s going to saddle Steve with a slew of demons that he never deserved.

Bucky never deserved to stay pure, and he never tried. He knew what it took and he knew how to scrap and fight and fuck his way through life because that’s all he was meant for and that’s all he was good for. Steve, though? Steve was different. Steve was what he fought for all his life, was what he was fighting for in the war, was what America should have been fighting for. And instead, they sacrificed him.

So what the fuck does Bucky have left to fight for?

FUCK U SONIA I DIDNT NEED THIS
