idk how you watch catws and not pick up on the fact that sam is absolutely a mirror of steve… they even straight up say it in the film.
“I do what he does, just slower”
okay we gonna do this because Sam is a reckless motherfucker that absolutely mirrors Steve’s characterization and i’m goddamn tired of people grossly misinterpreting his character b/c it fits in better with their two dimensional therapy dog version of him
Sam doesn’t like taking orders, he’s not pliant or obedient. He does what he believes is right and damn the rules (sound familiar??). Theres a reason they fucking hit it off so well right from the start.
Following that we have Steve turning up on his doorstep looking like a building got dropped on him. And what does Sam do?
Yeah sure… I’ll let a couple of avengers who just told me everybody is out to kill them into my house. Sounds like a good time. It’s also a bit telling that Sam knows exactly where his suit is. Ten bucks says he’s actually tried to steal it before but couldn’t quite manage it on his own.
And then we start getting into really no holds bar Sam:
Y'all like to forget Sam brought a two inch knife to a gun fight and won. Not to mention, he clearly walks around with a knife on him at all times… not just in his car, but on his person.
Sam gives no fucks and will take you out. Winter soldier? Bitch try it
Some hydra fool who won’t stop talking Nazi nonsense?
Fuck this guy. he’ll take him on in nothing but a fucking t-shirt.
Oh and remember that building that Steve jumped out of? Might as well top that by jumping out of the same one, just about 20 stories up.
Cool, cool, cool.
Going feet first towards the rotor blades of a helicopter, knowing if you miss your legs are mulch?
No problem.
Steve wants to track down an international maybe still brainwashed assassin?
When do we start?
And of course, this wouldn’t be complete without the penultimate Steve/Sam comparison.
So to everyone who trashes him, or does him a disservice by making him out to be nothing more than a therapist who can fix Bucky and Steve I have one thing to say. In the immortal words of the legend Samuel Thomas Wilson himself, “Man, shut the hell up.”
100% agreed, with all of this. Sam is Steve’s reluctant brother in arms, but the respect and support are there. Sam legitimately cares, and he’s all-in for the right cause. I genuinely enjoy his character.
maggie i have a really important question for you: because gansey reanimated those bone creatures in the cave in bllb, does that make him a necromancer?
I’m not ashamed to say I’m absolutely crying over this. Those pictures are beautiful. All the things we discovered. It really hurts knowing Rover is alone and we won’t hear anything else. I knew it would happen, but it still breaks my heart.
Funny how we anthropomorphise machines. But that’s just how we are. We want to believe in exploration, and the dream was a big one.
To Tired Writers. To the people out there whose hearts very, very much want to write and work on WIPs, but who are just mentally and physically exhausted right now. It’s okay. It is okay to rest sometimes. Allow yourself time to rest.
You have no idea how badly I needed to hear this with everything I’ve been going through.
It’s important to understand this. That pushing yourself too hard yields nothing but bad writing and poor health. Learn the rhythm that works for you, and work steadily. Everything else will resolve itself with time and editing.
I’ve been missing for a long time from my Tumblr but now I’m back with this beautiful picture!
I’m Kylo and my best friend is Rey. This is just the first of a photo shoot we did at the Novegro comic fair (Italy). What do you think? 🤩
This is so wholesome and sweet. I’m choosing to believe in Ben Solo. Anyone who wants to argue with me is welcome to try. But I hope for them. I have to.
