so @walkingstardust had this great thought about Bucky that I’m just gonna leave here for you guys

Wait, wait, wait, WAIT A SECOND!

It goes even further than that. Bucky is not only responsible for the Avengers, he’s responsible for SHIELD too. 

Because Bucky was the catalyst of Steve’s story in TFA. Yes, Steve met Erskine on his own and joined the army/earned the serum on his own but after that, it’s all Bucky.

There’s a good chance that, had Bucky not been captured, Steve would have just continued on with the show circuit. Maybe he would have defected for a small, singular heroic deed (pushed by Peggy’s inspiration) before ending up court marshaled. 

But he wouldn’t have been Captain America: The First Avenger.

Steve would not have gone gallivanting off for random soldiers at this point in his life. He would have considered it vaguely, sure, but he wouldn’t have gone. But the moment he heard it was the 107th, that it was Bucky, suddenly it was Time To Get Shit Done, everything else be damned.

Which meant that Steve, in his stubborn-ass glory, now a goal and no one was getting in the way of that.

And, in saving Bucky, he saved a literal shit-ton of people, making his skill and potential completely impossible to ignore. No way would the brass be willing to put him back on the circuit after hearing about what he could accomplish.

In saving Bucky, he saved the future members of the Howling Commandos (who would go on to being instrumental in winning the war). 

In saving Bucky, and in his work with the HC, he inspired Howard to form SHIELD, inspired Howard and Peggy to help a lot more people in his name.

Bucky is indirectly responsible for every single life saved by the members of SHIELD.

Bucky may actually be the single most important character in the MCU.

Consider:

Amanda’s away at college. She’s having lunch one day with a bunch of friends, when one of her friends nudges her and is like, “Don’t look now but there’s a really attractive older guy dressed like a vampire staring at you.”

And of course Amanda whips around and her eyes go wide.

Her friend facepalms and is like, “I told you not to-”

“Holy shit, it’s my dad,” Amanda whispers, and her friends turn to stare at her, dumbfounded, wondering if they heard right.

“Oh my gosh, Damien, what are you doing here!?” Amanda shouts, running straight at him and tackling him at full speed, gushing a mile a minute about how happy she is to see him and asking if MC and Lucien are there too.

Her friends follow her, and after all the introductions have been made, one of Amanda’s friends asks, “You call your dad by his name?”

And Amanda just huffs and rolls her eyes, saying that, “Well, it’s not like I want to, but he and my pops only got married like a few months ago, and he still gets super flustered whenever I try to call him d-”

“Really, Amanda!” chastises Damien, looking exasperated. “That happened once. Last month. I can assure you I’ve quite gotten over such childish-”

“Oh yeah?” interrupts Amanda, crossing her arms and staring at him with a raised eyebrow. “You sure about that, dad?”

Damien is able to keep a straight face for all of two seconds before a bright red flush spreads across his cheeks and to the tips of his ears, and he buries his face in his hands.

“I have a daughter,” he squeaks, sounding close to tears.

In New York City, a solidarity rally for the victims of the Charlottesville attack turned into an impromptu march through the streets on Sunday.

The marchers had a very important message for the world…

#Charlottesville

Nice.

chant: “anytime, anyplace. punch a nazi in the face. every nation, every race. punch a nazi in the face.“
