If I had a nickel for every OTP I have about two childhood best friends who fell in love with each other in their teens without ever telling the other,

but were separated because of their century’s heaviest war,

just for one of them to end up mutilated and lost

while the other found themselves fighting for someone who was actually just exploiting them

and who they had to betray in order to set their lover free,

while proving to the audience their love through a sort of wedding vow that the fandom unanimously recognizes as an iconic line,

then proceeding to be reunited some time later

just for the writers to break them up at the end,

while still exploiting the love between them either for drama or to enhance other storylines,

leaving the fandom to wonder if the hints dropped in time were just random or actual confirmation of their love/happy ending,

I’d have two nickels.

Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice right?

I just dont get the lack of thought we as the audience were shown about caps decision to leave bucky and head back to be with peggy?

Yes we had the previous time travel moment, longing look yes he obviously misses her- but the whole narrative thus far is the friendship of bucky and steve, and the lack of closure is just.. oof! Surely that cant be “the end of the line”?

Trying not to view this through stucky eyes either, surely that was jarring right?

So Steve's ending & decision to go back in time was definitely a plot hole (if directors and writers of the movie disagreeing on what actually happened is any indication) but still i see folks who like to defend it and i genuinely wanna ask,

-Let's say there have always been two Steve Rogers in the timeline, but then are you telling me that one of them straight out refused to fight, save the world, let hydra grow, didn't even move a muscle when aliens invaded the earth?

- Now let's consider the 'he went to an alternate timeline and lived his life there' explanation. So what exactly happened to the Steve Rogers of that timeline? Was he still freezing his balls off in the arctic while his doppelganger imposter lived happily ever after with Peggy Carter? What exactly did our Steve say? "Hey, I know I am not really the guy you love, oh he's still alive back there in the ice btw and you're also not the woman I fell in love with, but still we look like them so let's just get married and live together forever because hollywood studios don't agree it's a happy ending unless they see a guy and a girl kissing in the climax scene"
