does that goddamn clapper say FREEZER BURN? jesus christ.
How does Chris Evans keep getting hotter (with an even more impressive body), while Anthony Mackie keeps getting more fantastic.

“I watched a lot of documentaries on post-traumatic stress and a lot of army documentaries about the training programs and some of the extreme sort of circumstances that some of those guys that are training to be Navy SEALs and some who are a part of it go through. I was trying to understand what it is, what it means for someone to be desensitized, to no longer question hurting something. I did as much research on all that stuff as I could in order to kind of know what that was like. And then my stepdad actually has Alzheimer’s, so there were parts about watching and studying that kind of disease, also, observing people like that that kind of helped me a little bit.”—SEBASTIAN STAN
I got to the bit about his stepdad and legit started crying
#that face#he FAILED his mission#not to kill the captain#he’s practically gonna ace that one#but the inbound one that he’s had in him since the day he first met the scrawny kid in brooklyn#protect steve rogers#you ARE my mission#he failed to protect steve rogers#and something inside of him#despite the lack of humanity in him#knows this#so he lets go and falls after steve#protect steve.

So, I finally managed to read Bucky’s biography as presented at the Captain America Smithsonian exhibit.
And yes, the “Captured by Hydra, Barnes endured long periods of isolation, depravation and torture“ part certainly got to me, but what really caught my interest was: ”An excellent athlete who also excelled in the classroom”.
Bucky wasn’t all looks and brawn, he was also a good student. He basically had it all, was probably the most popular guy at school, and still chose small sickly Steve Rogers as his best friend.

(◡‿◡✿)It’s my headcanon that after the events of soshhy’s Portfolio of Pining series Tony gives this shirt to Steve as a ‘congrats on your new relationship – at least Bucky will stop crying now’ gift.
And Bucky is most appreciative of this 😀
Headcanon accepted.

Good advice in general.
Unless it involves airplanes, probably.
#but seriously do not apply this logic re: jumping out of or off of things #just don’t do it
“Would Steve Rogers do this? Yes. … But fuck that.”
#no one can tell me that he doesn’t enjoy or relish the mission – not so much the killing part which is the end goal – but the overall proces #the stalking; the finding; the honing; the strategy; calculating his trajectories and picking his weapons and following and executing #the orders to an t; and GIVING orders himself to the men who’d put a bullet in his brain if he so much as twitched #out of protocol; being able to give orders in the first place and being able to decide what gets done next #there’s a level of autonomy he gets running a mission than he gets anywhere else; and it’s only on a mission #that it looks like he really knows what’s going on – every other time he’s a child waiting for a hiding #the winter soldier is not a spy and the winter soldier is not an undercover agent; the winter soldier isn’t an AGENT as in #he has no agency; he probably doesn’t know how to keep himself alive for an extended amount of time without an extraction team #he’s a gun that you just point and shoot; but he’s still a person under that and even if he doesn’t understand it – #he’d relish the agency. he’d relish the momentary freedom he gets no matter how meaningless and small it is
