what could go wrong?

have some sambucky! it’s all i can offer in these trying times

the fact that they didn’t know each other back then and still had insane chemistry instantly. god bless the heart of the person who paired them together, they’ve created something powerful

congressman barnes who go to work wearing an expensive-looking suit with his hair slicked back wearing the most serious expression ever but his leathercase bag is so loud with all the captain america keychains and trinkets that is hanging on it.

everyone would know congressman barnes is arriving not because of seemingly loud whirring sound of his arm in a silent building but because of the telltale loud sound of all the captain america keychains and trinkets hanging in his bag.

I was talking with @livingincolorsagain and these random thoughts came into my head and next thing you know, it became a million years long. It’s kind of long, so putting some of it under a read more.

Also, shout-out to @talk3tiv3 @lupusxuniversum and @saryasy for wanting me to post it, so here.

So, I was thinking about writing and having this idea about Bucky not able to be able TO write (he can journal but journaling isn’t really something polished and unique, it’s just emotion and thought dumping for his own private eyes) but he has all these overwhelming feelings about Sam. 

He wishes he could write beautiful love letters, like he had been taught in the past, but words end up clumsy and silly in his head after all he’s been through and he thinks that the 40’s version of him could do that but not him. And all his letters would be too hard or plain for a guy like Sam who deserves romance and to be wooed. 

His therapist suggests if he wants to write creatively but letters and stories are too hard, to find another medium. Maybe something like drawing or music or etc. Bucky says he’ll think about it. Even though he went to art school with Steve, drawing was more Steve’s thing and he was skilled at it. Bucky’s art skills tend to be more engineer based and whatever he draws wouldn’t convey the feelings in his heart. He’s ok at singing — not the worst but not the best, he can hold a decent note but not all the time, and sometimes when he gets too distracted, either caught in the feeling or too goofy, his voice goes off key. He doesn’t want to embarrass Sam like that, though Sam being serenaded is an idea he tucks away into a pocket. 

And then he goes to the bookstore, a local one that has second hand books but also sells new things and they’re having a live reading of some local artist. Bucky stands around in the back, curious of the group, and turns out it’s a poet, reading some of their favorite poems but also a few of their own from their new book. 

And the poetry — the poetry ranges from extremely beautiful and full of flowery prose to some very simple but hard hitting lines that stick after the next one is read. There’s prose poetry and poetry with rhyme that seems more like the melody line of a song. The last fifteen minutes, which is what Bucky catches, goes by quick with a short q&a session, and Bucky gets the courage to ask about poetry, writing it, how to go about it, especially if you haven’t done it before. It’s the last question that gets answered coz it was so thoughtful, and the poet gets too into the answers but that’s ok coz the rest of the audience is raptured just as Bucky is. It feels like the lecture hall of an English class and Bucky is the most willing student.

After seeing an electro swing dance video pop up on my dash, my brain started to imagine Sam and Bucky as an electro swing dance pair. Maybe Bucky tries Sam how to do swing dancing, maybe they go to New Orleans to have a night on the town plus going to various dance halls, perhaps they glimpse the moves.

I have no idea how Bucky would react to the way electro swing sounds, music wise (the ways it could go would be SO much fun) but them pulling the moves and the two of them getting into it? That would just be something fun, especially since they’re both pretty athletic and acrobatic (especially Sam) and they could really pull off some dances I’m sure.

I haven’t written a Christmas fic in years and I have so much to do before Christmas itself but I suddenly had this idea for a sambucky/Sam fic dealing with Christmas wishes, and Sam finally getting his fulfilled when he wasn’t expecting it to happen.

Tossing around in my head whether or not Riley is involved (whether in the discussion of said wishes in flashbacks or his death or etc) or Sam always seeing and/or in some way helpful in people getting their own Christmas wishes and not his own.

Another variation could be that Sam has all these allotted or a list of Christmas wishes from the past that haven’t been fulfilled and somehow Bucky gets a hold of this and tries to make it happen for him.

I dunno, there’s just a lot of ways to spin it but Sam + Christmas wishes.

happy sam wilson wednesday and also new years

"why does Captain America call you babygirl?"

THE FALCON AND THE WINTER SOLDIER APPRECIATION WEEK ↳ DAY FOUR: FAVORITE PLATONIC RELATIONSHIP

Some doodles for my mental health :)

So I've been seeing a bunch of people reblogging some of my old gifs which made me want to go and work on them but didn't have enough energy for that so instead you get cropped screencap grabs and some edits.

These are from TFATWS gag reel:

These are from the deleted scenes, most of these are edited except the first one:

Of course you know I can't resist some Sambucky shots:

Now this next one is definitely a scene that's been on my wips for ages but I figured the screenshots were good too. It's a discussion between Sam and Rhodey about what happened to Rhodey during Civil War and we ALL have read fic addressing it, and while I hated this was in a deleted scene, the fact it's actually a canon thing is kind of nice.

Also, I had to take this shot because clearly a WHOLE lot of people (mostly the kids) wanted that (ice cream) cake lmao
