so, uh
did anyone tell steve after he woke up from the ice that cigarettes cause cancer??
like
did that make the list of things they told him about or was it relegated to the list of things they didn’t bother with, like the fucking moon landing
steve rogers after the battle of new york: well that was stressful, anyone got a smoke i can bum?
everyone who grew up with anti-smoking PSAs: uh, you know those things can give you asthma, right?
steve rogers, asthmatic who was prescribed cigarettes by a doctor in the 40s: what

when the mcu tries to gently Just Good Pals steve and bucky i want to laugh at them because, like. they were the ones who structured their arc, from the very beginning, as a story about leaving a plucky sweetheart behind in the states when you ship out. it could have been lifted wholesale from practically any wartime romance filmed between 1940 and 1950. “i just wish they’d take me into the army too– i’d go with you, show that fuhrer a thing or two– just promise me you’ll take care!” “darling, don’t worry, you can do your part right here at home– it’s ever so important to the war effort!” it’s the theme of fucking “tender comrade” and “since you went away” and “mrs. miniver” and i could go on and on
the part where steve gets turned into a tall dangerous hillshire farms beef log is the surprising science fiction twist; but the part where he grumps about being Left Behind by a uniformed hottie is 1000% period-accurate romantic dramedy that could have been screenwritten by david o. selznick. i’m sorry mcu i don’t make the fucking rules. this is just how it is. give them their v-e day kiss already and let me rest
also THEY are the ones who put a searching-for-romance subplot in Winter Soldier where Steve says he just can’t find anyone with “shared life experience” 30 minutes before his lifelong best friend who is also a super soldier and was also frozen and also missed the last 70 years comes back from the dead
like what the fuck did they think they were trying to convey there
Steve Rogers & Thor Odinson + casual conversations during battle
Steve Rogers vs Secretary Ross in Avengers: Infinity War (2018)
The world’s on fire, and you think all’s forgiven?

This is basically the face of a man who is 50000% done after learning that his idiot estranged husband launched himself into space to go chasing after an alien spaceship. When Tony gets back, they’ll be having words.
not to love steve rogers on main but wouldnt it be iconic if steve didnt die but he still passed on the captain america mantle to sam and went and lived in a little apartment in brooklyn, and in all the upcoming marvel movies the end credits scene is just steve sam and bucky eating cereal regardless of what the movie is about. just 3 minutes of them fighting over who put the empty milk carton back in the fridge (it was bucky)
one of them is like the shwarma scene from the avengers, except it’s sam in his cap uniform and bucky n steve in their pjs and they’re all just silently eating cereal
Heres How Steve Rogers Can Still Live
bucky, seeing someone in the distance singlehandedly taking on thanos: what a fucking idiot
bucky, .00000021 seconds later and about to have an aneurysm: wait that’s MY fucking idiot
