// okay but listen..
the only endgame cap leaving time to go back into the past and tony dying i accept is--the reason he doesn’t wanna tell sam about who that wedding ring’s about and why he has a new shield--is that he went back cause he felt lost without tony and went to a time where tony’s alive--
and made up for losing him. and inserted his ass right there to be with rhodey and the others who saved him in in the desert. insert many happy years of banter, eye rolling and pining/longing eye and lip staring? happily ever after. they both got old together cause it took steve longer to age and he waited for that red hot mess of a man to surface and be wooable. so they got married. or at least both wear wedding bands cause #husbands..
you can pry this from my cold, dead i reached far enough for it to make sense for me, hands.
