Can we talk about that scene in Civil War? The “your mom’s name was Sarah, you used to put newspapers in your shoes” one? Like real talk??
Steve was literally stolen out of his time. He’s a piece of history, he has his own museum exhibit. There is NO ONE who remembers him from before after Peggy. Even more than that, there doesn’t seem to be much information about Steve’s life before the serum, and people probably just don’t really care.
Sure Steve has his friends now, and they’re great. But they still knew him as Steve Rogers, Captain America first. All they’ve seen is one blurry photo of Steve preserum, and Steve doesn’t seem to be the type to open up about personal stuff before the war. I imagine it would be too painful.
But Bucky???? Coming in and saying his mom’s name was Sarah like he knew her personally?? Like they were close once? Steve probably hasn’t even talked about his mom since waking up from the ice. Sharing a small, seemingly insignificant detail about Steve trying to fix his shoes being too big? I bet only Bucky knew about that, because I don’t think Steve would’ve just given that information away. And Bucky probably thought it was hilarious at the time, which is why he laughs at it like it’s one of his most treasured memories I just 😭😭😭
Like it really hits Steve that this is Bucky. His Bucky. And you can hear it when he says “you can’t read that in a museum.” This is the person who he cares about more than anyone, the person who stuck with him no matter what. The only person who truly remembers him as Steve Rogers before the war. And this is the first time Steve has heard someone talk about his life before the war intimately since he was stolen from his time. Like, this is really such an important moment for Steve.
So yes, Sam Wilson, just like that we’re supposed to be cool.

it would be cool if y’all stopped using mizrahi jews simply existing as a gotcha. like we’re not proof that jews aren’t white — and this excludes ashkenazim, who are not white either and we’re certainly persecuted for Just That in recent memory. we’re not proof that israel oppresses “brown people”; the situation for mizrahim and more recently ethiopians in israel is a lot more complex than your american, western minds can comprehend. we’re also not your “unproblematic” flavor of judaism, just “oriental” enough to be palatable to non-jews that don’t see jews as middle eastern, a tool for ashkenazim to distance themselves from ashkenazi culture and history (which is beautiful and diverse already!!!). we were not besties with muslims and christians until the big bad z-word came along, we suffered in the Diaspora too and this deserves to be commemorated and taught to the world. stop using our existence to prove a point.

Ragatha/Pomni 7, 20, & 22?
Okay okay I love these ones
7. Who is clumsier?
Pomni is clumsier but I think they both have their fair share of clumsiness!! Ragatha just walks it off much easier/makes it less noticeable and has gotten used to patching herself up, whereas when Pomni trips or bumps into something it accidentally becomes a spectacle. Ragatha is quick to offer to help her and patch her up as well, but also overtime Pomni notices when it happens to Ragatha and Ragatha tries to to hide it, so Pomni makes a point of trying to help her whenever she sees it happening.
20. Who randomly brings home a stray puppy/kitten to adopt?
Ragatha 100%. She’d see the little guy all alone and wouldn’t be able to just leave it there. She’s also mentally preparing everything she needs to take care of it as she’s picking it up and taking it home too. Pomni is anxious about a very suddenly new presence of an animal in their lives but gets used to it quickly/loves them because they’re calming to pet and hold.
22. Love languages? How do they get around differences, if any?
I go insane thinking about these two and love languages okay.
Ragatha: in terms of giving she is big on physical touch and maybe gift giving. she comes across as though she’d be quick to comfort by hugging or holding hands, and I love the idea that she likes to make things for other people. I know acts of service seems possible but that seems like it stems more from a need to feel useful to other people
in terms of receiving I think acts of service would be a big one for her, she’s constantly helping others so when someone helps her out she really loves it. I think she also loves physical touch as well.
Pomni: in terms of giving I think she’d be somewhere between acts of service and quality time. just like, spending time with someone and helping them out if she can as well.
In terms of receiving, I think she also enjoys quality time, time spent with others especially can be a distraction from her own anxiety and she appreciates that. And despite hating being touched, I think the girl is touch starved and is craving it real bad, it’s just gonna take a lot of warming up and trust to get to the point where she’d be okay with it.
The biggest issue is not that there’s differences but rather that these two are too messed up to be able to accept some of these love languages from the other right away. Pomni would struggle with physical touch from Ragatha at first, and oh man while Ragatha would do everything to be mindful about it, she definitely has accidentally shown physical affection once or twice without thinking about it only for Pomni to pull away kinda harshly. Overtime they slowly but surely work up to a place where Pomni is comfortable with physical affection from Ragatha but it definitely takes a lot of time.
And Pomni would definitely try and help Ragatha out and at first Ragatha would constantly refuse the help. She’d feel bad that someone thought she needed help at all, until Pomni somewhat aggressively is like “LET ME HELP YOU. I WANT TO HELP” that she lets her start doing little things here and there for her and realizes how much she appreciates it.
