Steve: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

After thoughts on Endgame

I did my fair share of digesting the plot the past 48h, and I think I kinda get it:

The way time travel works in Endgame involves alternate realities. You cannot affect the future by going to the past. Rather, you would simply create an alternate timeline in which things are different — at least that's what is suggested by the Ancient One when she tells Bruce that an Infinity Stone leaving would cause an alternate timeline.

In Endgame, Bruce explained to the team some of the laws of time travel. Each individual's future is definitive. What if this entire time, Steve was meant to go back to Peg and his future in the MCU all along was to return to her? Steve's story has truly come full circle. (In short, there were 2 Steves all along in the whole MCU timeline till The Avengers won. And I dont rule out the possibility of future Steve going back in time serves an inspiration for Peg to start SHIELD.)

And you can’t convince me otherwise that Nat’s death, and their whole relationship dynamic was a pushing factor for him to do this whole causal loop, because.

“You, first”. Because he knows this is the right thing to do. Because he knows this is what Nat would want him to do. Because future Steve did not see her in a minute. Because he (Old Steve) deserves his fair share of bidding Nat goodbye all over again from the sidelines during the MCU timeline.

Steve and Peg got their happy ending. But let’s be honest and face it, Nat has been, and is always going to be the one who sticks.

The only regret I have is not to be able to see Steve mourn for Nat, and not being able to see what happened on Vormir when Steve returned the soul stone. I guess these are the parts where they become an open brief for fanfic writers, yeah?

I am not even sure this will even make sense to myself after a sleep. But this is the most I can handle (and theorise with) right now with my own shit heart after Endgame’s ending.

natasha’s last words to steve were “see you in a minute” but they won’t ever see each other again because she died

Mindless rant on Endgame

Spoilers ahead, avoid if you haven’t watched the movie.

Although it kills me, the end of endgame is a bit poetic. Had nat been alive at the end of the movie we all know that Steve would have stayed with her in the present.

I need someone to write an alternate ending about Steve marrying Nat when he goes back in time (since he is being all so mysterious when Sam asked him).

And the last scene he was dancing with Peg is just a form of closure for him (like how Tony/Thor talked with their dad/mum).

Fanfic writers, pls?

i’m in the ruins; i know the wreckage so well (stevenat, drabble)

a/n: i’m coping, it’s rough, there are endgame spoilers, etc. etc. title taken from “what if this is all the love you ever get?” by snow patrol bc that’s my current nat song on loop. can also be read as platonic.

we have what we have when we have it. six infinity stones. no natasha. no sardonic lift of the eyebrow, no flick of the red braid over the shoulder, and it’s her widow’s bite ten times over, electrocution and paralysis and whatever it takes. what it took was the best of them. what it took was morning laundry and shitty peanut butter sandwiches and the crook of her neck. imagine the angle of it, broken. he wants to ask clint if it was quick. bruce says her name again, more urgently, as if it’ll bring her back, and steve should have seen this coming. remembers sokovia and the world crumbling to pieces, how natasha had been willing to go down with the ship even then. red on my ledger I’d like to wipe out. fallen so far from grace she’d stopped being afraid of falling. see you in a minute. so many minutes stolen from him. zola in the new jersey bunker calling him a man out of time, and he wants it back, all of it: the dirt and the dust and the rubble raining on his shield, nat with her feet propped on the dashboard of a stolen car, nat with her eyes red from crying but still finding the strength to lean back in her chair and smirk at him. move on? you, first, she says, and steve stares at the space where she’s supposed to be standing and thinks: not from you, nat. not from this.

[bookworm66]

In my own bubble of denial, I would love to think Steve listened to Nat. He did moved on. He moved on and seeked a second chance with Peggy. From his new family. From Nat.

Ok ignore my blabbering.

THIS IS NOT A DIRLL. I REPEAT THIS IS NOT A DRILL. THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING. ROMANOGERS/EVANSSON STAYS WINNING.

[bookworm66]

HELL YEAH.

[bookworm66]

Steve: I figured I’d wait.

Peggy: For what?

[graylu]

Hes Still Shielding Her! (Even without his shield)

[bookworm66]

😭

[bookworm66]

Losing her was blue like I’d never known Missing her was dark grey all alone Forgetting her was like trying to know somebody you never met ... But loving her was red.
