Love to offer up my Nat if she's wanted ;)

Somebody's gotta clean up after the glitter.

I'll toss my Steve up somewhere in a few, as I finish your other tag, unless you want me to tag in on you.

Fabulous. Will get on that tonight <3

Steve makes the worst life choices and needs to be kept on a leash for his own health and safety. I am shocked he managed not to get himself killed pre-serum and honestly that's probably only because Bucky was there to make sure he didn't do too much dumb shit.

I mean, everyone paints Bucky as the bad boy but Bucky's idea of a great date was a SCIENCE FAIR while Steve was starting back alley fights. Bucky probably was the one to make sure Steve was mummified in scarves and that he had his hat and mittens (probably clipped to his coat cuz otherwise he'd lose one or give them to a homeless person) so he didn't get pneumonia in the winter.

Bucky and Natasha can start the Protect Steve From His Own Dumb Self club. Sam can be treasurer.

I think Bucky lived a precarious balance of making the poor choices of a healthy, streetwise kid, and scolding Steve for trying to make his own poor choices. He obviously knows him so well by the point of First Avenger that he can call Steve's bad choices moments after he makes them. "Oh, Steve's at the theatre, better swing in, WAIT, better check the alley."

I tend to go with the fanon that he and Steve were roomies, especially after Bucky makes the offer in TWS. I also do like the theory that Bucky never wanted to go to war, but got drafted and told Steve he enlisted, because he didn't want to crush Steve by accidentally stumbling into the thing that Steve wanted to do more than anything in the world.

Bucky probably developed a sixth sense about Steve after a while. He'd be in the middle of a conversation and suddenly stop and go "oh crap Steve's about to do something dumb" and run after him.

LOL steve sense.

Natasha has her work cut out, putting up with these idiots.

I think we're on the same page as far as dynamics, and growth potential. Steve really is this very clean person, though that isn't to say he's not a man without anger or issues. He can be angry, and still be unnaturally selfless. And I think, and it's been confirmed by the actors, that Bucky has this intense dedication to keeping him clean, keeping Steve's hands away from the muck, making his heroics as idealistic as possible. And that sort of darkened and colored him well before the fall.

He wasn't necessarily a "good" guy even before Zola ripped into him, and I think Natasha's acknowledgment of their mutual tendencies, without condemnation, is a huge respite for him. They form their own values, and they value fluidity, and survival, and now, Steve. And that could potentially draw them back together.

Bucky has latent romantic feelings for her, obviously, but I think when it comes specifically to Steve, he doesn't have the sense of possessiveness. They both fall in this small circle of die for them, and that relationship would just

[chyornayavdova]

We're definitely on the same page. Bucky and Nat just -- you're right, it's this fluidity, adaptability, but with Mr Solid at the heart of things.

Idk if I've written it with warwasincolor or if it was riffing on her perspective, but Nat's perspective of love being for children? The thought continues that she loved/ loves James because she had been a child when she first loved him.

Hard to get philosophical about all this typing on my phone. More later.
