In this house we only loosely acknowledge current MCU canon. In my mind it’s still around 2014-15. Winter Soldier just came out. We have such high hopes for the in-depth character arcs of our main babes, not to be turned into cash cows milked dry of any soul. The Avengers still all have their own floors in the tower and Bucky is coming to live in as Steeb’s emo plus-one.

Bucky—on one of those tough nights when he really doesn’t feel like talking; doesn’t really feel like much of anything—sits heavily on the foot of the bed and kicks his sweatpants off because it’s unseasonably warm and he already feels like crawling out of his skin. Maybe therapy was hard. Maybe he’d made an unkind comment about himself that just.. doesn’t sit right with Steve.
He’s expecting a kiss goodnight, to go right to sleep—but Steve doesn’t let it go. Instead, Steve kneels in front of him, haloed by the dim bedroom lamplight. Taken aback, Bucky’s lips part. He holds his breath. His hands clutch the duvet. But when Steve blinks up at him, that crinkle in his brow, it’s not hungry or suggestive. It’s something akin to awe. Wordlessly, Steve bows his head, forehead against Bucky’s thigh; like getting on his knees for him is an act of devotion. Gentle kisses are pressed there. Lips linger over a particularly evident battle scar—the ghost of a knife-fight. Soothing the violence over with mercy.
Bucky flinches at it, at first—the vulnerability. Worse, somehow, than being completely naked. The most traumatic moments of his life are etched onto his skin. But it’s like Steve tells him—‘you fought and won.’ (That he’s more than the things that have hurt him.) Swallowing hard, clamping his mouth shut, Bucky cards fingers through golden hair.
Steve’s lips trail to Bucky’s other thigh, scooting the hem of his underwear up so he can kiss a smaller, straighter scar. Steve knows where they all are; he doesn’t have to go looking. Working his way up, he coaxes Bucky easily onto his back to pepper kisses along his ribs, his chest, his shoulder. One from the nick of a knife at his throat.
Every press of skin is an ‘I love you.’ So are the words Steve whispers against that scar on his temple. (From a run-in with a baseball when he was 15.) Damp eyelashes flutter against cheeks. Cupping Steve’s face, Bucky sweeps a thumb over his pouty bottom lip—draws him into a proper kiss. It’s innocent salt and honesty. The sweetest thing Bucky’s ever tasted. Steve will ask him if he needs to talk about it, he knows, once they’re settled safe under the covers for the night. Tomorrow. For now, this is enough.

Harry Potter is fucking unsalvageable at this point and it doesn’t matter how much you seperate yourself from the artist/author when the author’s bigotry and transmisogyny heavily overshadows anything in that mediocre book.
at this point it signifies that you are complicit in the genocide of trans people, especially trans women and that you don’t care that Rowling is profiting off of HP while pushing for the removal of our existence.
love our trans sisters, especially trans sisters of color, more than this fuck ass book.
I will never forget or forgive her rampant transmisogyny and racist hate campaigned towards a brown woman, reinforcing the violently degendering of brown/black women, being involved in misognoir.
her dribble is nothing but spouting white supremacist talking points, especially in the category of viewing feminity and womanhood as having eurocentric/white beauty standards and appearance.
oh yeah and the denial of trans people being persecuted in the Holocaust, which ya know, makes you a HOLOCAUST DENIER,!!! OR A FASH!!!
JKRs public support of, and donations to a TERF group called For Women Scotland, have today resulted in a supreme court ruling here in the UK that legally defines gender as a biological binary, and specifically states that trans women are legally considered to be men regardless of the stage of their transition, and functionally renders gender recognition certificates meaningless.
Trans women can now legally be excluded from single sex spaces such as public bathrooms or charging rooms, shelters and refuges, etc.
The inverse is implied to be true of trans men, but not outright stated.
JKR has been very public in her stance on this matter for several years, and has actively funded and pushed for this change to legislation. And is now publicly celebrating the ruling on twitter.
She has previously stated that she believes anyone who reads her books, watches her shows, or buys her merchandise also agrees with her politics and supports her actions against the trans community.

Billionaire obsessed with hating a tiny minority celebrating after spending millions of dollars successfully funding a campaign legally defining that minority out of existence.
I genuinely hope some “gender critical” finally have their “are we the baddies” moment.
They won’t, but I can dream can’t I?

Skinny!Steve! With the
haloshield! In #4! Which, I might add, has been an absolute bastard of a palette, oh my god. This is as close as I could get with my pencils and then this weird purple happened when I drew green over pink but hey, science! I hope you like him, eamestrousers <3

Do you get it now? Without due process, everyone is at risk. How are you going to prove your citizenship otherwise?

This goes along well with that trope of “we’re totally a couple but we don’t know we’re a couple” that I absolutely fucking love tbh.
They share all the beds. All of them. They sleep together, nap together - in fact, I daresay they don’t get in a good sleep unless they’re together.
And they know all of each other’s worst sleeping habits.
If Steve sleeps on Bucky’s left side, he kicks during the night. Steve is the worst cover hog of all time but he makes up for it by also being a human octopus.
Bucky cannot even begin to tell you how many mornings he’s woken up trapped by the limbs of Steven Grant Rogers. No matter how they fall asleep, no matter if they’re not even touching when they fall asleep, when he wakes up, Steve is plastered right to him.
His life is so hard.
The way I cannot stand Queen Kristina in YR s3. I understand she’s grieving – I lost my brother to a car accident so I understand the unexpected grieving process – but like Jesus fucking Christ woman, you have another child who needs you so badly!! Neither you or your husband are giving him the attention or care he so desperately needs! Get help and be there for him!!!!! It’s so painful to watch.
Oh, and by the way, that Supreme Court ruling is where that Harry Potter money goes.
This isn’t even a slight exaggeration. JKR has openly given at least £70,000 to For Women Scotland to campaign against trans rights and fund this exact supreme court ruling. x x
Her anti-trans Crisis Centre in Edinburgh has the director of For Women Scotland on the Board of Directors. x
We can presume she’s given more (financial) support off the record or in other ways.
Rowling consistently makes passive income on all Harry Potter products. Multiple sources have cited that Rowling earns anywhere between $50 million to a $100 million each year from royalties. Forbes estimated she earned $95 million in 2017 alone. x x x
It is a well-known fact that she earns net profit percentages on all her IP. Every time you buy any HP merch, from anywhere, she gets a cut. Every time you watch one of her films, even streaming or just on the tv, she gets a cut. Every time you visit Universal Studios or Harry Potter World, she gets a cut.
And she uses that money to do this. To strip trans rights at every opportunity.
This is where that Harry Potter money goes.
