equal rights for women will never truly be achieved until we have more female noir detectives
realtalk the least realistic thing about Endgame is how Clint shows up with a highly detailed full arm sleeve tattoo of a skeleton samurai and a viper, the edgiest tattoo possible, and no one says a single, fucking, thing.
Not even Tony. Like come ON you cannot tell me he didn't see that and go, "Mid-life crisis much?"
though on second thought I guess Clint would probably punch him in the throat so, maybe it was just self-preservation.
it's still funny, though.

THE FEAR IS SO REAL
he’s so skittish, oh my god, she’s literally unconscious and he’s pointing a gun from a distance like any second she’s going to spring up and wipe the floor with his ass again. i’ve been internally screaming about this for the past 14 hours, i’m so delighted at this.
whatever you may say about thompson (and you should keep saying those things because he’s a jackass and no one should forget that) he’s a goddamn quick study. before the russia mission he was all like ‘we can’t waste time babysitting her’ and post russia he’s telling agents from washington dc that they won’t be able to handle agent peggy carter, so he sets himself up behind the automat with a gun, prepared. except he’s still underestimating her, he thinks he’s got her cornered when it’s really the other way around, and he even STEPS TOWARD HER and tries to puppydog eyes her into coming in. and, of course, she knocks him out in three seconds.
he doesn’t waste time making excuses or licking his male ego wounds. she’s gotten the drop on his understanding of just how capable she is twice now, and he is not about to underestimate her again. he’s the first to step into the hall but he lingers behind sousa until sousa confirms she’s knocked out/she doesn’t jump up and punch him out.
to be honest, i think he’s still underestimating her. peggy WANTS to come clean and explain at the end of the episode, and says that the handcuffs are unnecessary because she’s going to tell them everything. in my opinion, peggy could still escape with those handcuffs at any part of this situation, especially in the interrogation room, where only ONE hand is cuffed (what is this, amateur hour?)
tl;dr i love thompson’s learning curve. i love that this guy was giving her papers to file in episode 1 and by episode 6 he’s terrified of her. this is beautiful and i appreciate this.
I’ve been wanting to make a post about this for a while, even though I might be the only person invested in this, but anyway, here we go. I’ve seen mentioned several times, in posts about the movie and in fics that the Winter Soldier shot Nick Fury through the window of Steve’s apartment, and every time it makes me groan in frustration because no.
The Winter Soldier didn’t shoot Fury through a window, he shot him through a wall, and I don’t know about you, but it seems like a pretty big difference to me.
(bullet hole in the wall!!)
When I saw the scene the first time, I remember thinking holy shit??? that’s crazy, and for me that’s when the Winter Soldier really became a real, terrifyingly good assassin, that’s when his image as a serious threat solidified.
