gay things bucky barnes has done:
– kicked a guy literally up the ass for hurting steve
– bragged about getting into the 107th unit to impress his boyfriend
– wrapped steve up really, unnecessarily close after kicking a guy up the ass
– brought steve on a blind double date to “the future” and checked up on him more than he did his actual date
– got really worried when steve wasn’t there
– and left his date to go on a manhunt for his bf (bro friend)
– found steve, read him like a book, told him to stay safe, and hugged him
– (which is somehow still a lot gayer in context)
– he checked steve out the first time he saw him after the super-serum
– was visibly uncomfortable when he saw how steve swooned over peggy
– “you’re keeping the suit, right?”
– literally followed steve right back into the arms of his abusers because he trusted him so much
– followed steve home after his mom died and offered to sleep next to him for comfort
– gave stevie a lil neck massage and basically told him “til death do us part”
– which is apparently such a powerful, meaningful statement that it pushes past years of abuse, torture, and conditioning to completely override his programming and stop him from killing steve
– and it doesn’t just stop him from killing steve–it pushes him to actively prevent steve’s death
– fondly reminisced about steve wearing newspapers in his shoes
– got so distracted by steve’s biceps that he literally flew a helicopter in the wrong direction
– stood staring face-to-face to stevie in an elevator and lowkey started blushing
– kept a picture of captain america in his diary
– like hold on i just want to stress that bucky kept a picture of steve rogers in his diary
– why would he do that? you might ask
– because he’s gay and loves steve rogers, i answer
