the day thunderbolts get released for streaming and all you psychological terrorists (tik tok editors) get your hands on it….
consider me sat. sobbing. but sat.
Bob giving up control of his life to the physical embodiment of his depression and then beating himself up over it and the void just becoming more powerful as a result is such a perfect metaphor. like yeah, that's exactly how it is, you can't beat depression with self-loathing, you need support and purpose and the people you love and loves you. they pulled it off beautifully
Something I love about John is that he’s a true brother in arms who is meant to hold a shield.
He jumps in to defend his team - physically like when he jumps in front of Bucky when Sentry sends the bullets back at him, and verbally when he tells Yelena to lay off Alexei
He doesn’t leave people behind - elevator idiocy aside because that was dumb of him and of all of them. They should’ve gotten higher above the doorway for starters!
He makes sure others go ahead of him, and this is most evident in the Void maze, where the only exception is THE Red Guardian who makes sure John goes ahead of him
I love that military side of him, that defends his team mates and doesn’t leave them behind
I loved Thunderbolts*, that moment when you have to defeat god with a knife and a gun
"Friends dont look at friends that way" COWARD. I look at my friends with awe in my eyes, my chest is filled with love, im glowing because i get to be near my friends. I look at my friends and i would give them my everything. SO SKILL ISSUE, look at your friends with all the love that you have
something that makes me scream is that steve didn’t know bucky had gotten his orders and was leaving the next day. he’d gone to the film, saved bucky a spot (if you notice there’s an empty spot next to him in the theater), and gotten in a fight. bucky knew to find him in the alleyway behind the theater, bc he was supposed to meet him there. steve is taken aback when he sees bucky’s uniform. when he hears he’s been assigned to the 107th (the same infantry steve’s father died serving for). this isn’t jealousy -- this is fear. bc bucky is really leaving for the warfront, and steve is stuck in nyc. all bucky wanted for his last night was steve by his side, but the only thing steve wanted was to find a way to go with him.
liking someone platonically is so embarrassing like. yeah i admire you. yeah i think about you all the time. yeah i look forward to every time i see you even if it's only for a minute. yeah it's all platonic and yeah i couldn't explain this because it'd sound romantic. fucking hell
The Pitt is great because it’s full of the most beautiful women to ever walk this earth and the saddest most pathetic men I’ve seen on television.
today i learned that yelena’s name means “bright/shining light” and if you think about how she’s really the beating heart of the thunderbolts* and how alexei says she lights up every room she walks into and how bob—whose alter ego is literally the physical manifestation of his own darkness—immediately latched on to her because for all her prickliness, she managed to make him feel safe and wanted and seen, i just….yeah i’m not okay
America’s Ass. America’s Ass(hole).
