a classic theme in world literature, art, film and video games; most notably in those that have a lot of action. This trope usually involves beautiful, innocent, or helpless young female leads, placed in a dire predicament by a villain, monster, or alien, and who requires a male hero to achieve their rescue. After rescuing them, the hero often obtains their hand in marriage.
bucky who can’t quite seem to get over the fact he can pick up mjolnir even though it’s been a good three months since the first time he accidentally plucked it from the ground in avenger’s tower. the hammer itself always seems to be in the most random of places and bucky will walk over to it whenever the opportunity comes along and look around to make sure no one is watching before picking it up again as it expecting one day that he won’t be able to lift it again. except every time it comes off the ground without hesitation and he grins like an absolute idiot because it means more to him than it probably should just that mjolnir deems him worthy at all so that must mean there’s something good about him, right?
and of course tony eventually asks why thor leaves his hammer just sitting around the place and thor simply smiles and says, “because it helps where i cannot.”
Wait so according to the Marvel Cinematic Universe Wiki, Steve moved in with Bucky after his mother’s death in 1936 and then didn’t get the Serum till he met Erskine in 1943. So…he and Bucky lived together FOR SEVEN YEARS!!! before they went off to war.
Also friendly reminder that “till the end of the line” literally means the same thing as “till death do us part” and was introduced to the audience in a flashback scene where Bucky is proposing asking Steve to move in with him. Oh and according to the official Marvel wiki this scene takes place when Steve was 18. So basically they were childhood sweethearts who got married as soon as Steve was legal.
