Okay, but the funny part here (aside from Lilian), is that Cap does this ALL THE TIME in the comics. Like, this exchange. Even in the little bit I read, I saw it two or three times:
Villain: You won’t do the thing, you’re Captain America.
Cap: Nope. *indicates less morally upright companion* They will.
Which kind of suggests that Cap is less about moral uprightness and more about plausible deniability. 😉
He’s still just a paladin in a mixed-alignment party. “I can’t kill that orc, because it’s unarmed, and I’m a paladin of justice. My ranger buddy, however, can totally do that. So go ahead, ranger buddy.”

Let me tell you about a thing.
That look on Bucky’s face. That is the look of a man who’s barely keeping it together because the love of his life got hurt again. That look is where he really, really wants to throw tiny bitty Steve over his shoulder and carry him off where he can be safe and sound and nobody can hurt him.
But he can’t do that. He won’t do that. Because while he can protect Steve, he can’t make Steve feel like he’s less than what he is. He won’t step on Steve’s dignity like that, because it’s more than just stupid pride. It’s everything to do with respecting Steve and the strength in him that is a lot more than the physical.
So he’ll walk in when Steve’s out of his depth and cover with a smart ass comment that will keep Steve from feeling worse than he already does. They’ll banter and snark while Bucky covertly makes sure Steve isn’t hurt worse than he appears.
But then there’s that look and he isn’t as good at hiding as he thinks he is and Steve will remember that. One day, Steve will figure it out, because he’ll recognize that same expression in himself. And maybe they won’t have to cover things up so much with snark and wiseass commentary.
Maybe Steve will just lean over, press his lips against Bucky’s temple and say, “Love you, jerk.”
Maybe Bucky will turn his head, press a kiss back to the corner of Steve’s mouth and answer, “Right back ‘atcha, punk.”

To successfully make a shot, you gotta follow and master basic steps. Your stance is the foundation. Where you draw your strength. Nock the arrow and grip. Realize you are wielding a weapon. Mindset. Focus solely on your goal, regardless of your surroundings. Be in the now. Set up and draw. Inhale and prepare for what you are about to do. Anchor and hold. There is no going back. Aim. All that remains is you and your target. Release and follow through. Master those and you hit every time. One last step. Feedback. Basically… take responsibility for the outcome. For every shot.

*SOB* Why aren’t there more stories where Peggy somehow POOF COMICS LOGIC makes it to the future with Steve!? I think I’ve seen one. ONE.
And she’d be there for him (along with Sam) when Winter Soldier Bucky shows up, too.
Come on, it’s not that hard to make up science stuff! Stan Lee did it all the time! All you have to do is like “Howard Stark did sciencey stuff, the end.”
And she could be friends with Natasha and Maria Hill and the other badass ladies of the MCU.
I mean, come on, we all know – and Steve knows – that she could take him, serum or no serum. (It’s one of the things he finds so attractive about Peggy.)
I demand fic. I demand it NOW.
If that fic wasn’t if this is home by Siria, then you need to read that ASAP. It’s my definitive Steve/Peggy.
