Steve Rogers in 1944: I know I’ve never seen combat and have actually never won any kind of physical fight, ever but I’m going to go alone 30 miles behind enemy lines and defeat an entire factory full of squid Nazis by myself in order to save Bucky because I refuse to believe he’s dead
People in 2016: We sent a SWAT team after Barnes and we know Rogers will be upset but we told him to chill out so we’re sure it will all end well without any grown men crying on the floor in Siberia
aren’t we all glad that steve rogers didn’t become the hulk instead of captain america? that boy is always angry and ready for a fight even without the gamma rays
Okay, but imagine this. None of Steve’s friends are in jail or getting shot at. Tony hasn’t blown up anything important in a while. Bucky and Steve go off to see the Grand Canyon. Steve has a moment of perfect bliss … and suddenly he’s tiny again.
“Holy cow, you are like the Hulk, you’re just never not angry!”
Aaand, Steve is big again.
Next time, Bucky keeps his mouth shut and gets almost five minutes of cuddling before Steve remembers about anti-vaxxers.
