I always kinda fixate on how Sam’s gaze lingers condescendingly on Steve after he delivers this line, and it’s produced this headcanon where after the VA scene, Sam and Steve go out on a date and hit it off really well and go back to Sam’s place and bang, but Steve wakes up while Sam is still making breakfast and is like “I’m sorry to do this, but I have to go” and is apologetic and cringe-y and Sam kinda watches him dubiously with his spatula in hand but is like “alright, man, see you around.” Whether Steve left because he got cold feet or a mission kinda varies in my head. But it makes Sam’s “if u EAT breakfast u fuckin shit” face in this scene (and the startled but slightly reserved way he initially answers the door) funnier to me.
Like I have not been able to stop thinking about this????
It… also kinda explains Steve’s little “okay I deserved that” head bob?
Rewatching “The Winter Soldier” and I still have trouble focusing during the sequence where they’re recovering the ship from the French pirates. I can’t remember whether/why this was important.
OK I guess the information that Natasha got off the ships’ computers had something to do with Hydra. Which is why Fury couldn’t open the files. And it’s relevant that Sitwell was on the ship.
Too many twists and turns and I forget what the storyline was. The basic outlines I remember, but specifics evaporate.
When that Quinjet turns around to confront Steve, it looks very much like Serenity in “Firefly” when she rears up out of the canyon to save Mal and friends from the ill-advised bar fight in “The Train Job.”
No idea why the design would be similar.
Not Steve’s first kiss since 1945, huh? I think they probably want us to assume he’s been on a few dates that didn’t go anywhere because of lack of shared life experience, but of course my assumption (and one I’ve seen bandied about on Tumblr) is that he’s hooked up with Tony, Sam, or possibly both.
