“YOU ASPIRE TO BE CAPTAIN AMERICA BUT YOU DON’T REALLY WANT TO FUCK HIM.” <=== precious bb queer Phil Coulson in a nutshell, basically.

Like, precious bb queer Phil Coulson’s code for living is What Would Steve Rogers Do?, but his spank-bank is wall-to-wall Bucky Barnes Being A Smirky, Cheeky Little Shit.  which is appropriate because for real the answer to ‘what would steve rogers do’ actually is ‘bucky barnes’.

Like, maybe there was some awful cheesy promotional calendar of the Howling Commandos that some well-meaning grandma gave Phil when he’s like 12 years old, and he flipped through it, and February was just Bucky standing there in his dress uniform, with his khaki tie slightly undone and his hat at a rakish angle, giving the viewer the old glad-eye, and well basically that’s the year Phil started locking his door and it was February for months at the Coulson house, because 28 days was not nearly enough time for Phil to spend on that picture.   

AND THEN, almost forty years later, ACTUAL BUCKY BARNES shows up on Phil’s doorstep and it’s like, wow, awkward. I mean you’re all messed up mentally and haven’t had a haircut or a hug in literal decades and I feel bad about that, but also I used to masturbate to the idea of you pinning me down and smirking into my neck, so…there is that.

But Phil Coulson is a nice guy who likes projects and hopeless causes, so he takes care of him and cuts his hair and idk, makes him soup and gives him a place to sleep and a couple of Steve-related books to read.

And I’m not saying Bucky, as he starts getting his feet back under him, tries to pay back Phil’s kindness with the sex, leaving Phil to go ‘no, no, we can’t’ to his literally FANTASY BOYFRIEND, because he’s still so messed up and Phil would never take advantage. But I’m not NOT saying that, if you know what I mean.

also like steve/bucky was precious bb queer phil coulson’s OTP, so…he’s not about to get in between them.

No, no – but first Clint is all “he’ll never love me, he has a hard-on for Captain America” and then he talks to, like, Maria or Phil’s sister or somebody and they’re like “HaHaHaHA! Nope. Phil has a Type, he always has, and it’s not Steve Rogers, it’s Bucky Barnes.”

And then JUST when Clint thinks maybe he has a chance, THE REAL Bucky Barnes show up, and Clint’s like “JFC, this is just my luck.”

But then Clint walks in on Steve and Bucky and he’s like “oh my god, Phil, I’m so sorry”

And Phil is “*blink blink* What? No, Bucky and Steve belong together, I know that.”

And Clint is like “Oh, but I thought you had a crush on him. For ages.”

Phil: “(embarrassed) I did, but then I met another hot, smart, snarky marksman who captured my heart, so…”

Clint: “Oh. (Is sad). Is it someone I know?”

Phil: “… Well, it’s you.”

Clint: *blinks*. “What? Really?”

Phil: “I know, I shouldn’t have said anything. I’m sorry, I don’t know what I was -“

Clint: (interrupting) “Shit up. No. Answer the question – REALLY?”

Phil: (glaring) “Yes, really.”

Clint: “REALLY???”

Phil: “JFC, I’m leaving.”

Clint: (grabs him by his lapels and starts kissing him)

Phil: (totally into it. Then blinks and pulls away) “No, wait, but, you – ?”

Clint: “YES! JFC, get the fuck over here.”

Phil: (blinks) “Yes. Yes, of course”

(Back to snogging)

Untangling Bucky Barnes

copperbadge:

I don’t think it’s exactly a spoiler to say that Bucky will probably have a significant presence in Captain America 2, given that the subhead name of that film is The Winter Soldier. So I thought I would take a minute to talk about how Bucky has interacted with the Captain America narrative since the forties. Partly because the comics tell a significantly different story from the film, which affects the balance of power between the two men, but also because it’s kind of hilarious. 

There are significant spoilers for the Winter Soldier comic book arc behind the jump, so if you want to go in as unspoiled as possible by comics, you know what to do.

Written pre-Cap 2, but still very interesting and worth reading for a basic primer on Bucky through the ages in the comics.

The Super Soldier and the German Psyche

Hoo boy, we’re going deep down the rabbit hole with this one.  I hope you’ll bear with me, as this might be will be a disturbing post.  Here, have some shirtless!Seb as a precautionary measure:

He’s laughing at me because I’m kind of a masochist.  Anyway, check back with him if you need to.

I have German heritage on both sides of my family – my paternal great-great grandparents came over sometime in the early 20th century (don’t know much about them) and my maternal grandmother grew up in Nazi Germany.  Plus I was a history major specializing in European history from 1871 to the Cold War.  So…I know some things.  You could chalk up all that to another reason this movie was like catnip to me.  That said, it will take a bit to unpack all of this, so bear with me.

The idea of there being a superior race was pretty much unheard of before European imperialism and the Atlantic slave trade.  Before then, Europeans didn’t have much cause to compare themselves to the rest of the world.  But over the course of the 17th-19th centuries, that small part of the globe came to control the remaining 85% of the world.  Suddenly, they were faced with millions upon millions of “savages,” and had to justify their superiority.  Their right to subjugate the rest of humanity.

Eugenics started [in America], Germans just ran with it.

THANK YOU FOR SAYING THIS.  This is something that we do NOT get taught (or that we didn’t get taught when I was taking community college history classes, let alone high school), and I know it’s just an aside, but THANK YOU.

Nazi Germany based all its initial forays into eugenics on programs in America that were active in over 20 states.  That may not really be the topic of this post (which is a good one), but it is very very important to make sure people know.

suddenly really want the opening to Cap 3 to be a replay of the train, re-shot from different angles to really mess with the perception of what happened and who’s POV this is supposed to be and the sound is harsh and abrasive and too loud and you can hear the bullets ricochet and the guns blast, the klnnng of the shield against metal and you can really hear how raspy Bucky’s breath is and how calm Steve sounds and then

“Bucky look out”

and the blast of the laser and the cacophony of the shield and the guns and the side of the train and metal on metal being torn apart and then just the wind the air howling and screeching and the metal groaning underneath Bucky’s hands and barely hearing Steve call out and the wind the wind the wind

and no music and no lead up just the wind and “take my hand” and the wind and then the drop-

and then he jerks awake and tries to catch his breath and all the audience sees is this figure in shadow in bed, trying to find his footing again, and you can’t really tell if it’s Steve or if it’s Bucky

because it doesn’t really matter, because they both dream about the damn train

why this
