#not as a ship but as a character

[laegolas]

hey real quick does Tommy want to date Buck or be Buck?

Because honestly this character has no strong connections, and no one he appears to reference or lean on. And the latest episode made it very clear that he's an outsider who wants to be part of the family that is the 118 - but he missed his chance because of who his captain was, his own actions, and I'm going to lump his attitude in there too.

Even the Eddie bestie-ism of it all - the man was clearly wooing (platonically or romantically, you choose) Eddie with all those trips and activities, and its implied that the connection between the two was pretty instantaneous.

It's very easy to imagine Buck becomming just like Tommy if he didn't have Bobby and the 118. Buck wants to give and give, but you can't keep giving without being fulfilled in return - you become exhausted and closed off and everything is held at arm's length.

“these characters should be mentally healthy before they get together 😌” ummm no I actually think we should smash their mental illnesses together like clumps of play-doh and see what colors it makes

I think we as a society should bring back brotps. I think we should be weirder about characters being friends the same way people are weird about ships. Make those two characters who interacted once or twice besties. Make it difficult for them to get rid of each other even if they want to. Go nuts

nah since marvel is trending again I’m going to say it again louder for the people in back — canon steve rogers would never have chosen an “idyllic 1950s white pickett fence life” because the only place that man belonged was a picket LINE. the whole point of his character was that his work was never done. there was always going to be another oppressor, another bully, another person who takes advantage of the underprivileged for him to stand up to. from the moment he gained consciousness he, a chronically ill son of a working class mother living below the poverty line, used his voice and his body to protect & fight for what he believed in. I’m not sure there was ever a time pre-super soldier serum where he didn’t have a black eye. he could put the shield down all he wanted but he could never retire from being steve rogers — someone who never once turned a blind eye, who never once wanted a “reward” for his work, who never once abandoned his friends. this isn’t up for debate. this is almost a century of comic book & film/animated precedent. he may have been a man out of time, but in his words “it’s tempting to want to live in the past. it’s familiar, it’s comfortable. but it’s where fossils come from”
