Rise Up, Oh Heart, For There is Another Battle to Win

theamazing-hawkguy:

Avengers: [in a crowd and can’t find Natasha] ‘this calls for drastic measures’

Avengers: [use their hands as microphones] “CLINT BARTON HAS BEEN COMPROMISED”

Natasha: [from across the room] “what the FUCK DID YOU JUST SAY”

Avengers: “there she is”

Congratulations, you have an argument against a Black Widow movie. Now let me tell you why that argument doesn’t really work.

Okay, but she wasn’t really well known to the general public before the movies, so it’s probably best to keep her in a supporting role. It’s just too risky otherwise. 

*points to Guardians of the Galaxy*

*also points to Antman, which absolutely no one was clamoring for*

Okay, but she’s too well known now. She’s been in several movies and is very important in the team movies. That’s enough, isn’t it? Give other characters a chance.

*points to three Iron Man movies, soon-to-be three Captain America movies, soon-to-be three Thor movies, and two unsuccessful Hulk movies*

*also points to the fact that in one of those movies an important, character developing scene for her got cut because it “slowed things down” and that will always be considered an acceptable loss until there’s a movie about her and her development specifically*

Okay, but now you’re getting a Captain Marvel movie and a Wonder Woman movie.

*points to twenty million superhero movies starring dudes*

*also points out that lady characters are not interchangeable and that a Black Widow movie would not be the same kind of movie as a Captain Marvel one*

Okay, but she doesn’t have any powers, and that’s not very interesting for a superhero movie.

*points to Batman and his gazillion movies*

*also points to James Bond, Bourne movies, and other popular spy thriller franchises*

Okay, but they follow a strict timeline, so it wouldn’t make sense to do another origin movie for an established character.

*points to her current successful comic run that has nothing to do with her origins but still somehow manages to find interesting stories to tell about her, like, how do they even do it*

Now seems like a good time to add this one…

Okay, but Marvel has a GRAND MASTER PLAN, and they can’t just change it, because plans NEVER change, okay, and it will throw everything off or result in a rush job of a movie.

*points to Spider-Man and laughs hysterically because of fucking course*

There is no way that anyone could convince me that Natasha “shall we play a game” Romanoff and Bucky “let’s go to a science convention on my last night before deployment” wouldn’t be the nerdiest assassin duo to ever make dad jokes while offing bad guys

“for the first time ever i’m not the lamest” -clint barton probably

I guess it’s time to blacklist Bucky Barnes too, because that “what if a little girl recognizes him at the Smithsonian exhibit, because girls can have heroes too” post is just pissing me off now because what about girls whose heroes are girls, is that fucking allowed ever or does literally everything have to be about Bucky Barnes including the admiration and aspiration of young women? 

What about the teenager who recognizes Natasha at the mall because Black Widow is not exactly S.H.I.E.L.D.’s best-kept secret after New York and a CHI straightener and a hoodie is not going to change that, and her first instinct is to elbow her friends and maybe go ask for an autograph, but then she notices the pace and the smile and the perpetually-scanning gaze and realizes Black Widow is on a job, holy frick, cover ops in Fashion Centre at Pentagon City, wait until absolutely no one hears about this, but she puts herself on a course that will pass Romanoff and gives her the tiniest of nods, and Black Widow winks at her, and she walks on and feels like a superspy herself for the next handful of days until the S.H.I.E.L.D. filedump, when she stays up and reads and reads and reads, and later when she’s writing her term paper, and then later when she’s sitting in her Declassified Operations elective, and later still when she’s across the table as Director Hill reviews her qualifications, she is thinking, “I met Black Widow in the mall and kept her secret; there is nothing I can’t do”?

What about her?

I think I’m in love with you.

Steve and Bucky going to the smithsonian and standing like they’re wax statues in the exhibits just to see who gets caught first

(via puppetmaster55) pffffff, i bet steve would, the little kids would be staring and he couldn’t help but wink at them, he thought it would be a cute way to show that it really was him, but then they started screaming, bucky manages to keep a straight face through it all, though steve can’t fathom why, when security comes steve throws bucky under the bus, meanwhile two rooms over, in the avengers wax exhibit, natasha is on day five and still hasn’t been spotted.
