I just can’t get over that scene on the helicarrier like…

The entire time they were fighting, Sam’s calling Steve “Cap”.

Up until Bucky knocks him “off” the helicarrier.

Then he screams “STEVE!”

Because he’s absolutely terrified for his friend. Shit just got realer than real.

This is more frightening than Steve voluntarily jumping off the previous helicarrier with no warning. It didn’t scare him the way this does… neither of them were prepared this time around.

Here’s another friend and partner falling out of the fucking sky.

But here’s one he CAN save if he moves fast enough.

And if you notice, he’s not actively trying to shoot Bucky down dead after Bucky hinders him the first time, he’s trying to distract Bucky and get him to move enough out of the way so that he can immediately fly down to save Steve.

That’s his priority.

Then Bucky clips his wings and sends him falling.

He saves himself and yet his immediate worry is for Steve.

Even when he gets grounded, Steve’s nowhere in sight so he’s looking for him. He’s back to “Cap” when it comes to communications. But that one terrifying moment where it wasn’t Captain America that was falling… it was Steve… that shakes him up a bit.

He’s glad Steve was able to avoid the fall but he’s permanently out of the helicarrier fight so he can’t be there anymore and he’s so regretful over that.

But Maria Hill calls and he’s on Rumlow because that’s something he can do. Every little bit helps. He can do this.

He does what he can- the best that he can- so that others may live.

I fucking love Sam Wilson so much.

And now let’s jump movies to CA:CW… Sam is willing to commit treason to help out Steve. And who’s he helping? None other than the guy who kicked Steve off a hellicarrior and made Sam feel useless in trying to save his new friend. He complains only slightly about it but he faces off with his teammates, all to defend this friend of Steve’s. When it becomes obvious that not all of Team Cap is gonna get out of there, Sam is the one who tells Steve to get on the jet and take Bucky, no one else was gonna make it.
Once they are flying off Rhodey is in hot pursuit and Sam’s only goal there is to distract Rhodey long enough for Steve to get away. But… It turns into a duel of ‘who’s the better pilot’…when Rhodey is shot down (because Sam was better and able to dodge Vision’s hit) Sam could have gone on, he could have caught up to Steve to help him in Siberia. Instead he saw what he lived through, the thing that caused his PTSD, he was helpless as another friend was shot out of the sky. He was so guilt stricken when he got to Rhodey, guilty cause he was the better pilot and now another friend is possibility dying and he is so sorry….

Listening to the Captain America theme and the Winter Soldier theme I’ve noticed that Steve’s Theme is more melodic and instrumentental and Bucky’s theme is very electronical and sounds like just a bunch of machine noices but in the end of Steve’s Theme you can hear Machines like in Bucky’s and in the end of Bucky’s theme you can hear a Piano like in Steve’s. Henry Jackman truly worked the “I’m with you ‘till the end of the line” into the soundtrack and I don’t know whether to hate or love him for that.

when the mcu tries to gently Just Good Pals steve and bucky i want to laugh at them because, like. they were the ones who structured their arc, from the very beginning, as a story about leaving a plucky sweetheart behind in the states when you ship out. it could have been lifted wholesale from practically any wartime romance filmed between 1940 and 1950. “i just wish they’d take me into the army too– i’d go with you, show that fuhrer a thing or two– just promise me you’ll take care!”  “darling, don’t worry, you can do your part right here at home– it’s ever so important to the war effort!” it’s the theme of fucking “tender comrade” and “since you went away” and “mrs. miniver” and i could go on and on

the part where steve gets turned into a tall dangerous hillshire farms beef log is the surprising science fiction twist; but the part where he grumps about being Left Behind by a uniformed hottie is 1000% period-accurate romantic dramedy that could have been screenwritten by david o. selznick. i’m sorry mcu i don’t make the fucking rules. this is just how it is. give them their v-e day kiss already and let me rest

also THEY are the ones who put a searching-for-romance subplot in Winter Soldier where Steve says he just can’t find anyone with “shared life experience” 30 minutes before his lifelong best friend who is also a super soldier and was also frozen and also missed the last 70 years comes back from the dead

like what the fuck did they think they were trying to convey there

#he’s too pretty and too smart in this scene#its overwhelming

REBLOGGING FOR TAGS: #and Steve is never really surprised by how shitty people can be#just disappointed#very disappointed#Captain America is very disappointed

*THOSE TAGS*

*now has many thinky thoughts about Steve Rogers and Night Watch and Young Sam Vimes*

The third gif is what keeps getting me.

He sees all these people getting on preparing to attack him, and they are all the faces of men he has worked with over the last few weeks and months, maybe years.  Men he’s trusted.  Lives he’s saved.  Comrades in arms.  His team, as much as he’s had one.

That is the look of bleakness, as someone else gets on and Steve thinks, “You?  I liked you.  I thought you were better than this.  Oh god, don’t make me do this.”

(Sometimes the person that you’d take a bullet for is behind the trigger)

But these aren’t people he’ll lie down for.  This is a fight he’ll pick his shield up after.  There’s nobody in this elevator he loves enough.

This whole scene is a masterpiece of subtle acting and one I don’t think Chris Evans gets nearly enough credit for. I mean, you can see the moment the penny drops and it’s minutes before everyone in that elevator thought it would. (I get the feeling he gets underestimated a lot at SHIELD—he’s big, he’s blond, he’s the man out of time, what can he know?) But that mind never stops working and the minute the penny drops, he knows what he’ll have to do to survive.
