Things I Never Expected To Learn Through A Tedtalk But Now Am Glad To Know:

It’s deep red rubies and bright diamonds, woven together in an intricate design. It looks dangerous. It looks foreign on her neck, dark elegance settled around her throat. Peggy thinks she could be wearing a snake around her neck and it would be less exotic.

"It started out of nowhere. Odd- I thought I was doing everything right"

The first comic book I ever read was Spider-girl. I got a box of them for Christmas.

It is my headcanon that there is a gun on the table in this scene because The Winter Soldier has been trained to arm any of his handlers who are not already armed while in his presence so that, if they so choose, they can put him down at any time.

Later, it takes Steve months to figure out why Bucky gives him a knife every time they’re in the same room.

My question is: what is Steve Rogers’s body count? … We don’t talk about that a lot because he’s an American Hero ™ and American Heroes don’t ever actually kill people even when they’re, you know, soldiers in the actual fucking Army.  The American Hero has to show mercy and give everybody a second chance and any time the Bad Guy dies, it has to be because he made a mistake that lead to his own death.  The hero can never actually just fucking murder him in our stories because that would be wrong and a true American would never do something like that.

So, like, has Steve Rogers ever shot a dude in the face?  Has he ever snapped anybody’s neck?  Has he ever been struggling for his own life and used his shield to take a life?

If you have either canon comics knowledge or just Opinions and Feelings, please feel free to share.  Because, like, dude was a soldier in WWII on the European Front fighting Nazis, kicking open doors with gun literally blazing, so he’s obviously killed people, but we never discuss this.  How does Steve reconcile killing?  Does he feel guilt?  Is he comfortable with his actions?  Has he killed people since he got pulled out of the ice?  How does he feel about taking human lives?  Does he talk to anybody about it?  Does he just internalize it and let it eat him up inside?

Just don’t, Pati. DON’T.

Anyways, according to Agents of Shield, Steve spent a few weeks after defrosting in "one of Fury's old retreats," "a safehouse for people with powers" AKA a cabin by a lake in the middle of nowhere.

A metal part of the wall looks like someone punched it.

I'm sure Steve had an amazing time.
