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

So the thing about that moment near the beginning of Cap 2 where Natasha pulls up in a fucking sweet Corvette–

–well, first of all, I love that Natasha likes driving ridiculous dick cars, because she is clearly having fun with it.

But anyway, I love that the running scene ends with Steve climbing into a totally overkill Corvette driven by a girl who is five foot three inches of pure don’t-underestimate-me badass, because that is Steve. That’s what Steve is. That’s why Steve repeatedly lapping Sam and lampshading it is hilarious instead of mean.

Steve Rogers is a scrappy, sickly little runt behind the wheel of the world’s most souped-up muscle car, and he’s having fun with it, but he’s always uncomfortably aware of the distinction between people complimenting him and people admiring his sweet ride.

I LOVE THE COMPARISON BETWEEN STEVE’S NEW BODY AND NAT’S CAR, THIS IS EVERYTHING I NEVER KNEW I WANTED IN CA:TWS ANALYSIS

Metatacular.

Howling Commando Era pranks please because the Army takes that sort of shit seriously and since Steve is so very eager to fit in with the rest of the guys obviously the best thing to do is to include him in the neverending circle of pranks that get pulled both on themselves and others (mostly others)

For your consideration:

• Gabe and Morita shaving off one of Dugan’s eyebrows while he sleeps. The next morning Bucky making him shave off the other so he’s still in uniform
• Apple pie-ing Steve’s bed. It’s hilarious watching most half asleep/drunk guys try and get into a short turned down bed, but they forget that Steve is a tiny bit stronger than most guys and he just puts his legs right through the sheets. Everyone gets laundry duty the next day, but nobody tells Steve why. 
• That time the river froze over and Dernier thought it would be fun to drive a General’s car onto the ice and tie it underneath a bridge. It might still be hanging there come spring, which is credit to his knot skills. 
• Also the time they dismantle a famous bridge to see how it is made and then somehow ended up with a few spare parts after putting it back together again. They then blame the Paras
• Dugan might have also stolen a plane from the RAF and proceed to send postcards from every city they visit in it
• Steve once got them all very drunk and recruited some of his USO friends to stage a well-needed makeover, thus starting the rumor of that one time the Howlies turned up to parade in stockings and red lipstick. 
• The sucessful mission off the coast of France in which they were in a submarine and fooled a German U-boat into thinking they were a fishing freighter full of drunks by singing loud showtunes over the radio
• An assortment of increasingly disgusting and tasteless ‘drinking’ games involving various bodily fluids that ultimately ends with Bucky and Peggy threatening to shoot every last one of them because Steve is a punk who never backs down and no they aren’t playing freckles they are all vile and unhygienic.
• An Admiral betting Steve a whole month’s rations of rum that he can’t pick up a tank. Steve can absolutely pick up a tank, and he proves it by putting it on top of his jeep.
• There is also that time when the allies drop fake wooden bombs on fake German airbases, which is how Falsworth reveals he’s actually a damn fine whittler and they start leaving carved wooden dicks behind in the bases that they raid. 
• Steve doesn’t know how they do it, but every single time they arrive in a new base or hideout or fucking foxhole in the ass end of europe, someone always finds the time to cover the shithouse with pages from Captain America comics
• Bucky Bear. No matter how many times Bucky tries to throw it away, set it on fire or use it as a weapon to smother a HYDRA operative, somehow the fluffy little fucker always makes its way back into his gear
• It is also worth noting that no matter who they prank, one rule stays firm; no one fucks with Peggy. It’s not that they think she can’t take it because she is a woman, it’s because she went to an all girls boarding school and they play fucking hardcore pranks

You could make an argument for Steve being in almost any hogwarts house but because I like Steve in situations where he confuses everyone and fucks shit up I kinda really like Slytherin oops

Oh my god yes and also give it to me. Bucky gets sorted into idk Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff after an awkwardly long deliberation but Steve just barely gets the Hat on his head and it doesn’t even pause or give him time to ask to be in Bucky’s house, just instantly screams “SLYTHERIN!“ 

Everyone is slightly deafened and extremely baffled, they were literally already making room for him over at the Hufflepuff table. The other Slytherins take one look at him and can’t decide if they’re thrilled or terrified; half of them hate him and half of them want to be his own personal Death Eaters because obviously that is where this situation is going, of course it is, wait why is Rogers talking to that Gryffindor with the broomstick fetish and those weird Potions-obsessed Ravenclaws who disappear once a month. Did he just try to beat up Rumlow and Rollins for stealing Foster’s bag, does he not know she’s a mudblood? Why is he even talking to Barton, Barton is practically a Squib! 

Cross-house friendships skyrocket, inter-house scuffles also skyrocket, and Professor Pierce’s neutrally pleasant smile suffers greatly. Professor Fury passes out infinite detentions, detentions for everyone. 

Natasha Romanoff is mysteriously there for all of them despite never getting caught doing anything ever. No one wants to know why.

The Peggy Show

spitandvinegar:

Headcanon: Steve Rogers has two favorite television programs: Call The Midwife and the in-universe version of Agent Carter, which he refers to as “The Peggy Show.”

As in, “Hey, Sam, did you watch The Peggy Show last night?”

(Sam has started watching it in self defense, because otherwise Steve will just recite the entire plot of the episode to him).

Steve’s favorite parts of The Peggy Show include: when Peggy is right, when Peggy is smarter than men, when Peggy saves the day, and when Peggy punches people. This is the entire show. He likes the entire show.

Once, when Steve went to visit real Peggy, she mentioned that they were making a TV show of her life, and that it was “Completely ridiculous, just fanciful nonsense. In real life my outfits were all significantly better, and the men were all significantly worse.”

I’ve never thought about Tony Stark being an artist before. But I mean, it would make sense. I mean, he is an artist, in the way he’s able to design his projects, articulate his ideas in the living world as an engineer. But he’s gotta have an EXTREMELY good eye for the human body and the way things look and move because of this. So he’d be a DAMN good artist. 

Imagine him and Steve exchanging art tips, holy shit

imagine his political and satire cartoons holy fuck

okay but Tony growing up looking at his fathers drafts, but also looking at the pictures Steve drew for Howard and Peggy. Listening to stories about Rogers’ gift with a pencil. Sitting at Peggy’s knee as she talks about when she ran across Steve during the USO tour, right before he got into the fight, and how beneath the sketch of a landscape, Steve had drawn this little monkey, wearing his costume, balancing on a unicycle with a little, a little parasol in its hand. That’s how Steve saw himself, and then he changed it. He was a brilliant man, Tony…

And then Tony meets him, and never sees Steve draw. Just fighting, fighting, fighting, stepping in line with SHIELD and at first, Tony doesn’t get it. He doesn’t understand how anyone could look at Steve and see an artist. He’s just a soldier. 

And then he meets Sam, and they start chatting–somehow the topic of Sam’s PTSD comes up which leads to Tony talking about his own struggle with his, right now. What he’s doing, what he’s taking for it, what a great support Pepper has been, and Sam is genuinely proud of Tony and Tony doesn’t know what to fucking do with that???? and then Sam’s like “I wish I could get Steve to where you are. I know I’m not supposed to be his therapist or his sponsor, but. I worry about the guy. Y’know when I met him, I asked him if there’s anything that even makes him happy, and that fucker still hasn’t given me a straight answer. He’s lost in his work, down the rabbit hole, I just wish I knew how to…give him a nudge in the right direction.”

Tony’s quiet for a long moment, long enough that Sam starts to shake his head, a dismissal on his lips, but then Tony holds up a finger and says, “Does he still draw?”

Sam shrugs. “I don’t think so–did he used to?”

“Yeah,” Tony says. “Yeah, I think so. I used to hear stories about–Y’know what. Y’know what, tomorrow–do you know Bob Ross?”

Sam is trying not to smile. “Do I know Bob Ross.”

“He’s great, right? He’s mellow and folksy, has that ASMR thing going for him. I bet you, I bet you, we get Steve in the same room as one of his shows, something will happen. The man makes me want to paint and I don’t paint. I’m terrible at painting. Especially landscapes.”

Now Sam is smiling. And laughing. “Okay. Okay, just tell me where Bob Ross’ playin, and I’ll bring the big guy his way.”

Its Tony’s turn to smile.

Assorted ladies, enbys, socially conscious dudes, and general SJW spoilsports of the MCU fandom, allow me to give you a gift.

Imagine Steve Rogers. The son of a widowed Irish immigrant. Whose first true love was Our Lady Margaret Carter, Patron Saint of Ball-Busting Broads. Whose triad of right hand trusted compatriots includes Natasha friggin’ Romanov.

Steve Rogers, World War II vet. Who actually fought the actual Nazi army in actual Germany in actual WWII. Who saw first hand what they were doing to anyone who stood in their way.

Imagine, in the 21st century, what happens the first time Steve Rogers hears someone in an argument use the word ‘feminazi’.

Just… Just savor that.

I know I will.

Reblogging myself because I feel sad tonight and this made me smile. Someone needs to write this.
