Emotional support cat for Buck???

For the WIP ask game

Well just what it says, Buck gets an emotional support cat fearing that a dog would be a little too much while healing from a crush injury on his leg :)

_________

Buck watched as Maddie tried to coax the cat out from under his couch with a toy.

“I’ll bet you didn’t know black cats are considered a sign of good luck in some parts of the world.”

Some people, people like his mother, would shame him for getting a black cat so soon after a near death experience. Or really adopting one at all.

But Buck knew that they were less likely to be adopted, more likely to spend their lives in shelters and have the higher rate of euthanasia.

When Chris had pointed the cat out Buck felt that information slid into place in his mind. All of it. The stigma that followed them due to some superstition that black cats were inherently bad luck. It was something he couldn’t let go of.

“I did not know that.” Maddie said as the cats paw swiped at the toy from under the couch.

“Yep!”

“That why you named the little guy Chance?”

Chris had actually help pick the name. It was all by chance that they had gotten the cat in the first place.

nobody say a fucking word about tumblr we can’t remind these billionaires we exist

[on-lock-down]

No thanks.

[on-lock-down]

funny how there were so many rumors about tumblr shutting down for good and yet it has watched some of the biggest social media platforms die

[on-lock-down]

tiktok stunt haha funny. please talk about the ice raids

[on-lock-down]

Please tell me that y'all won't go back to tiktok once Trump gets whatever nefarious concessions he wants from the company and "saves" it. Like, you all NEED to stay gone. Stay on Xiaohongshu or move to other platforms or create a new one or whatever, but don't go back to whatever Trump-appeasement monstrosity TikTok is about to become. Don't do it.

[on-lock-down]

For any relocated TikTok users

you can say sex and kill its fine

If you don't have a profile picture people will assume you're a bot

theres barely an algorithm, if you want to see cool shit reblog things instead of just liking them

follower count doesnt matter

tumblr fame gets you one thing and it is Yelled At

no one knows what the fuck the nsfw policy is

block anyone that annoys you even a little bit

And most importantly:

post cringe

Steve (& friends) + text posts pt. 5/?

[on-lock-down]

Straight ppl be saying "Why cant they just be friends?" To the most homoerotic, queer coded, gay friendship and expect people to listen to them

[on-lock-down]

Listen, I'm not the type to look for homoeroticism in every single male duo in media. Not everyone swings that way.

But those two?

I smell the fruitiest of fruit, your honor.

the winter soldier ⭐️

listen. i know it's not 2014 anymore and i know it's just a throwaway line and that the russo brothers didnt intend for marvel action blockbuster captain america the winter soldier to become the tragic gay love story that never was but man. having steve say "it's kind of hard to find someone with shared life experience" in a conversation about romantic relationships right before the bucky reveal is so cruel. it's not just about steve and bucky obviously having the shared experience of being "out of time," it's the fact that they've both been stripped of their humanity in opposite directions. steve is a legend, he is an american hero and a national icon before he is a human being the same way that bucky is a weapon and a killing machine before he is a human being. steve knows that anyone who falls in love with him in the 21st century fell in love with captain america first, and that's just not him. but then the one person who knew him first and knew him best and loved him (not captain america, that little guy from brooklyn) so much he died for it is alive, impossibly. and it's a miracle because he's back and it's horrific because he's back under the worst possible circumstances. but to steve, the winter soldier is worth tearing the world apart for because he's always been bucky first. they find each other and suddenly they're human again. and maybe, despite it all, being "out of time" becomes a blessing, because in this century they'd finally be allowed to love each other the way they've always wanted to. like real people do.

like. no. the captain america trilogy isn't about two queer men traumatized and alienated by war and modern life rediscovering and reclaiming their humanity through their love for each other. but. i mean. it couldve been
