Peggy and Steve
So I finally saw Endgame. And uh. Yeah it was a thing. I liked it for the most part! But what I didn’t like, I really didn’t like. The one thing I really wanna talk about is Peggy and Steve. Yes I love them, yes I want them to be together. But not like this.
One of Peggy’s most iconic and influential quotes is “The world has changed and none of us can go back. All we can do is our best, and sometimes the best that we can do is to start over.” That was a huge thing for Steve in Winter Soldier and Civil War. But now, what? That just doesn’t matter? Going back to live with Peggy completely erases the history we already knew she would have.
I don’t think Steve should have gone back. I also don’t think he would make that choice. He knew she had a husband and kids and a life of her own. He knew she had moved on. Having him do that ruins both his and Peggy’s development.
