idk but my headcanon is that whenever steve and bucky are gonna meet up with each other, bucky checks all the alleyways and places like that just to make sure that steve isnt being beat up
Bucky eventually not even checking if it’s Steve anymore and becoming an accidental neighbourhood vigilante because every time he sees some small skinny guy being beaten up in an alley way he charges in like a rhino and saves the guy and goes “you stupid fuck steve” and they look at him and go “who the fuck are you”
Imagine after Bucky joins the Avengers the guys are telling him about all the missions they’ve gone on and they’re casually mentioning all the times Steve’s almost killed himself and Bucky keeps glaring at him like,
“you jumped out of a plane? With no parachute?”
“you crashed your plane in the middle of the ocean?”
"you were going to fight a GOD?!”
and the rest of the avengers just have to sit there listening to Bucky shouting at Steve, for like an hour.
After the Winter Soldier shot out Howard’s tires and caused his car to crash, he walk up close to finish the job.
Howard recognizes him and realizes just how deep HYDRA has gone.
In his last words he begs Bucky, “Please, Barnes, not my son.”
Bucky shoots him.
But from here after, anytime HYDRA attempt to send him to kill Tony, Bucky would go berserk. Until finally HYDRA just stop trying to send the Winter Soldier after Tony Stark.
This puts a whole new spin to Steve mentioning that his barbershop quartet was dead.
OH, SHIT
Wow, yeah, gallows humor here. I cracked the fuck up.
HEADCANON ACCEPTED SO FAST WE’RE OFFICIALLY SHARING BRAINS LMAO
Bucky’s epic facepalm when he hears it for the first time, Tony’s white face when he hears it. Bruce also has gallows humor (one of his faves is “we few, we band of buggered”), and thus just laughs. Natasha is all SMH, and not sure about Phil and Clint…
Now back to your regularly scheduled head canoning…
BAHAHAHAHA Bucky facepalmed and then joined in, because he knows the harmony. Sam just about DIED laughing but yeah, he can sing that song too, yo - it’s one of those things that have been passed on since forever. Thor thinks it is a delightful war song and will learn it later. Clint knows the song too and joins in.
So Steve has a new barbershop quartet and Natasha thinks they’re all ridonkulous.
Poor, poor Tony…. it doesn’t help that Rhodey knows that song too! :P
so I’ve got this headcanon that Guardians of the Galaxy is really the Avengers playing a table top roleplaying game, where Bucky’s the DM who suffers through heaps and loads of trolling
Mostly from Steve
Especially from Steve
Which means Natasha was the one who sat down and wrote out the long, comprehensive backstory for her kickass space assassin Gamora, that Bucky keeps trying to work into the campaign but they keep getting sidetracked by –
Tony who just created what he sees himself as – the suave, wise-cracking space vagabond.
Thor who needed a lot of help building his character and decided on a couple easy to remember traits (Strong, honor, doesn’t get metaphors)
and Bruce who’s actually too busy to pay full attention so any time Bucky asks what he wants to do he just says “I am Groot” and lets Steve decide
Pepper would probably lift it right up, “Tony, you really need to tell your Avenger buddies to stop leaving their props all over the place…” and launch into a speech about his irresponsibility while waving it around in the air as everyone watched in shock.
