#sambucky meta

[siancore]

Obsessing over the sartorial themes in TFATWS. Thinking about Bucky’s outfit, him showing up to Sam’s workplace without wearing said outfit, and then wearing it for the first time on the mission with Sam (like he was saving it to wear in front of Sam). Know how I know it’s the first time Bucky wore that outfit? Well, it still had the left sleeve on the jacket.

Remember this?

Bucky cut the sleeve from that jacket in CACW. He doesn’t like having a sleeve over the arm when he’s in action, as we’ve seen before:

Can safely assume he asked for the sleeve to be left off his Infinity War outfit and has no problem giving input into what he likes.

Safe to say Zemo probably pulled this outfit out of his ass without Bucky having a say in it:

What I’m getting at is this outfit with the sleeve still intact means a couple of things:

1. It was Bucky’s first time wearing it.

2. Sam probably had it made and set aside for Bucky.

Why would Sam do that? Well, the jacket is leather. Bucky doesn’t need much more protection than leather. Likes it even. The colour is similar to what he chose for himself in Wakanda. Sam knows Bucky likes to gear up before a fight. And maybe he held onto it the hopes that if Bucky came to him wanting to join in him the same line of work, then they could get right down to business. It would also explain why Bucky had the Cap outfit custom made for Sam later in the series (as a way to repay his thoughtfulness).

The shipper shit that’s keeping me up at night is this: If Sam had the jacket made for Bucky, he had it made with an interesting sartorial choice i.e. the small highlights of red that matches the red in Sam’s Falcon outfit that draws the eye and makes us unconsciously associate them as a team or partners:

The colour-matching was overt with Walker and Lemar:

But with Sam and Bucky, it was subtle. You’d miss it if you weren’t looking and it was only really evident when they’re standing side by side:

Now, the shipper in me doesn’t know whether or not I like this conjecture better than the other thought that’s keeping me up: Bucky had the outfit made for himself and got the highlight of red to match Sam’s outfit all of his own accord. Why did he get it made with the sleeve still in place? Well, it’s obvious: He wanted to do some Hot Girl Shit and tear it off in front of Sam 😂

I so wish Figaro had been in TFATWS. Would've been so easy even if Hollywood doesn't like working with animals.

I can imagine it though.

Figaro chilling in the kitchen as Sam and Sarah talk...

Sam could've given him a cute little boop or a little forehead kissy kiss like he does to the boat. 🥹

Speaking of the boat, Figaro could've been chilling in the background while Sam worked by himself...

*bonus points if he gets another little kiss boop after Sam kisses the engine. (He's so cute 🥹😭)

(I'm just imagining him sleeping on that shelf in front of the window)

Figaro chilling while watching Sam and Bucky work...

(This would be his audition process for future fellow Cat Dad Bucky 😆)

Bucky waking up and Figaro's just chilling on top of him...

('Congratulations, human, you've made it through to the next stage.')

Basically, Figaro would be all of us! 🥰🥰🥰

Also, sets up nicely Bucky going... "Yeah, I want one of these too. This is nice." (Enter Alpine!)

Seriously though, from a more meta angle, Sam being a cat dad would've been a subtle hint to him not being the extrovert open book many people mistake him for. He doesn't open up easily until the time and effort is taken for him to trust someone. Plus I've always headcanoned that Sam adopted Figaro after he left the air force and Riley died. Like he became a support animal that helped Sam get up in the morning and take care of himself because he had a little buddy to also take care of.

Because I also imagine Figaro chilling in the background of Sam's CAWS home...

(Of course Nat would trust Sam right away. He's a Cat Dad! 😁)

And then during Endgame, Nat could've had Figaro with her! (Maybe Sam's neighbour who'd looked after him after Sam was a fugitive also got blipped and Figaro was sent to the Avengers Compound...)

Especially since this scene between Nat and Steve reflects on the people they've lost. i.e. SAM! The missing third person of their fugitive trio 😭😭

Basically what I'm saying is... I want more Figaro! Everywhere. He represents love and grief but also healing.

Love is stored in the Cat. Thank you.

MattJen & Sambucky Parallels (Finale Edition)

[fandomfluffandfuck]

Help, i fell down a Marvel rabbit hole.

So the Endgame dilemma with Steve's decision had me thinking about other 'happy places' for Bucky and of course there's the obvious with Sam after TFWS but can we just for a minute think about Bucky maybe refreshing something nice from his time in recovery in Wakanda?

I found not a lot of fics but the thought of Bucky getting back there and kinda warming up with M'Baku again? This pairing just has something to me, especially with the whole grumpy but secretly subby White Wolf meets sarcastic domineering great Gorilla M'Baku...

Why would I help, lmao? I'm at the bottom of a very similar hole. The more the marrier! Welcome to the trash pile 💀💀

All good options, all good options, but I will say, anon, I welcome you to fully embrace the exhilarating option of: completely ignoring the events of Endgame.

As captivating as the idea of subby white wolf and domineering gorilla M'Baku is 😮‍💨... as much as I love all the ship content that has come out of Sebastian's and Mackie's banter as Bucky and Sam... I am weak for stucky. It's 🤌🏻everything about them🤌🏻 The childhood best friends to lovers, the wartime sweethearts, the going against the whole world for each other, the dying for each other, the living for each other.

Okay, so I'm laying my cards fully on the table to say that I hate Endgame, explaining why I like to ignore it. And with that being said, here are some anti-Endgame (some of them also straight up anti-steggy/anti-peggy) related metas that I find thought-provoking that I think you might, too. They're just to kick around the idea if you're interested in a different perspective that comes from what I see as deeper in the fandom (idk how true that is,though, lol)--something you might not have come across yet if you're new to this rabbit hole. Obviously, you don't have to read these, though! And I'm not saying you can't ship sambucky or Bucky x M'Baku. You're totally welcome to! I see the appeal myself 👀

Anyway, here:

Bucky's insecurities

No mourning of Steve

Secrets between Steve & Peggy

Endgame destroying Steve's character

More character destruction

Steve choosing Bucky

More stucky devotion

I'd rather Steve die

The no-homo-ing of gay ships in Hollywood

Steve and loyalty

Steve, the shield, Bucky, and Peggy

Steve's ending doesn't make sense (essay)

The Bucky Steve leaves behind

The look on Bucky's face

Uhh... I may have gotten carried away with the links. Listen, I just feel strongly, okay 💀💀

If you do find any good M'Baku and Bucky fics, feel free to send them my way 👀

[thecoloursdontshow]

whenever i watch age of ultron and civil war, i always wonder whether at some point steve and sam stopped looking for bucky all together. i know a lot of fanfictions will have the party in ultron as a plot point, but what gets me is we see sam 3 times, three movies in a row. ultron, at the party, ant man, at the compound when scott tries to steal that thing for hank, and again during luis’ monologue at the end, and throughout civil war as a supporting role to steve. in ultron, it is basically outright said that sam is looking alone. then, by the end of the movie, he’s confirmed an avenger. which, i know, obviously, he could do two things at once. but then, again, in ant man, he’s shown doing avenger shit. AND THEN, IN CIVIL WAR, WE OPEN THE MOVIE WITH HIM DOING AVENGER SHIT. then he sees they looked for 2 years. mind you, ultron and ant man are a few months apart, and ant man and civil war are almost a year apart, so i guess he has some time. it just feels like he’s a very concrete asset of the avengers, yet he’s said to have looked for bucky for 2 years. its just. its odd to me 

[hereintheskywithdiamonds]

late to this but can we make an actual sambucky tag or do we all just have to use the one crowded with Steve/Bucky content and/or just Bucky content.

[logicheartsoul]

I have to say the official emojis is even MORE than just what you put because they made two of the handshake scene (one as falcon and one as cap) and Bucky is grinning

Two!!! And grinning!!! It’s too much honestly

Top 5 moments when Marvel shipped Sambucky more than the shippers themselves:

5. When they made a Sambucky emoji and had the Bucky emoji smiling after episode 6 aired

4. When Marvel made them wear a couples costume in their Halloween special

3. When Disney+ UK posted a photo edit to celebrate Sam and Bucky's anniversary

2. When the Marvel.com website made a list of the best MCU couples for Valentine's day and included Sam and Bucky

1. When Disney+ Singapore posted an edit that looked like a fanvideo on Twitter but it turned out it was an official promo video

[luna-rainbow]

Got curious about fandom trends so pulled some data from AO3.

Like a good scientist, going to start with Limitations:

Polyships not included. Ships list is also by no means exhaustive.

Not filtered for OTP:true so same fic may feature multiple ships that may not be the endgame

Also doesn't reflect which ship is centered in the fic as opposed to mentions

Obviously deleted fics won't turn up in the count, but it would be interesting to know real historical numbers for these fandoms

Quite a few fics have been backdated, given AO3 was only launched in 2009 and several fics are marked pre-2009. It's possible other fics have also been backdated but I think the numbers are small enough to be non significant.

I did not filter out between MCU and Marvel comics for the ships

(Addit for something new I noticed) Fics that have been updated on 2023 will disappear from earlier numbers i.e. if a fic was started in 2022 but is still being published in 2023, it will not show up in 2022 numbers.

As always, keep in mind AO3 has relatively higher slash ships than other fanfic sites

AO3 doesn't necessarily reflect the size of the fandom, only how many people write for the fandom on AO3 (duh). Other activity - discussions, meta, fanart etc doesn't always correlate to fic production.

RIGHT axis scale applies to the MCU area only - this is the overall number of fics being written for the MCU over the years.

Observations:

Stucky took a while to catch attention. In 2011 when CATFA came out, there was only 61 fics, but that jumped to ~400 and ~600 for the following 2 years.

Avengers (2012) made Stony into one of the first juggernaut ships of the MCU with around 3000 fics that year.

2014 CATWS vaulted Stucky into the stratosphere, going from less than 600 fics in 2013 to just shy of 6000 in 2014. SamBucky and SteveSam both started then, but SteveSam was the bigger ship at the time (500 vs 150 fics)

2016 CACW gave a boost to both Stucky and Stony, as well as a boost to SamBucky.

Curiously, SteveSam did not receive the same boost from the movie, and its numbers dropped in following years and stayed around 300

AC, starting in 2015, gave the first real boost to Steggy. Prior to this its numbers stayed around 200, with a small uptick in 2014 with CATWS to 400.

Clearly, lots of people were happy/unhappy/had things to say about EG, because that was when Stucky, Steggy and Stony all peaked, while SamBucky also had a big boost. This peak is also mirrored in the overall number of MCU fics produced

Big spike for SamBucky as expected from TFATWS in 2021, nearly breaking 5000 and overtaking Stony for the year

2021 was also the peak for overall number of MCU fics per year, which I wonder if it's partially due to Covid lockdown. Other franchises released that year were Loki, Black Widow, Shangchi, Eternals and Spiderman.

SteveNat and BuckyNat have stayed fairly constant ships (of around 500 fics/year) with a small boost from each movie. Staron has remained a small with around 100 fics a year.

🥭🍍🍈

Sorry I started replying to this yesterday then had to draft it bc busy

🥭 Rank from most enjoyable/fun to write to least: Fluff, Smut, Angst, Crack.

OK pedantry time. Crack is a meta category and the other 3 are tonal descriptors. I object to the question.

Anyway: angst > smut > fluff

🍍 What kind of AUs do you like? Are there any AUs you hate or just generally have beef with?

I have an irrational dislike of sambucky aus where Sam is still cap and Bucky is some random civilian dude. It's a whole subgenre and while I'm sure there are good ones, I just associate it with annoying Bucky stannery and lazy "just clocking in at the captain America factory" writing for Sam.

I also dislike hannibal inspired "serial killer au"s because every single one I've encountered in every fandom has been bad. I think people don't realise why that show worked, how it got away with it's own silly premise.

🍈 Who’s your blorbo and what are some of your favorite headcanons/ideas about them that repeatedly show up in your fics? Free pass to rant about blorbo opinions.

Omg. Sorry all mcu Sam related but if you're who I think you are you won't mind:

Sam did gymnastics at school, competing at a regional level. This comes up in this fic! I have him specialising on the pommel horse and I think that kind of movement suits his flight really well.

Bi bi bi bi bi.

It's implied he has ptsd in canon, hc that the reason he wasn't medically discharged for mental health was part of the cover-up of the failed falcon project. They didn't kick him out and they kept him on in this counsellor job as part of some under the table deal. This has never explicitly come up in any of my fics but you bet its been in my head while writing them.

Honestly? Samtasha happened.

If he was real, he would follow bds.

[staying-elive]

A collection of my thoughts and headcanons to improve TFATWS

(Warning: Long post ahead!)

I was rewatching The Last of Us the other night and I really appreciated how, in a 9 episode (10 really with the 2ep pilot), it delivered so much plot momentum while still delving into multiple characters' backstories, with multiple episodes almost entirely devoted to flashbacks.

Like... with a somewhat modified plot and longer run time, TFATWS could've added so much backstory for both Sam and Bucky. Hell, they didn't mind spending CGI de-aging money on Fury in Secret Invasion so we could've used a little here too, no?

So, in a similar series structure, we could've had a 2ep opening pilot, really setting the foundational themes, then after Walker gets introduced as Walmart Cap, the next episode (after the recap) could've opened with an almost entirely flashback episode of Sam's time in the air force. (Walker might’ve even been in Afghanistan at the same time, depending on age/Blip years, etc. if you wanted to show them crossing paths, show Walker's always been entitled and a loose cannon, etc).

The episode could've A) shown Sam's awesome Falcon skills as a pararescue, B) given us Riley, whose loss we'd see echoed in Sam's grief and mixed emotions about Steve (and NAT!), and C) could've shown more Sam's reasons for being anti-authority and anti-institutional power, and a distrust in power structures that change their minds and agendas.

A headcanon I've had for a while is that even though Sam and Riley were trained and deployed as pararescue, eventually, maybe after their first tour trialling the EXO-7s, the military higher-ups realised that the Falcons could get in and out of certain regions/facilities, far better than a lot of other special forces crew. This meant that very quickly, Sam and Riley were being pulled from their pararescue unit and sent on more and more ops that weren't what they signed up for. Weren't of the 'rescue and recovery, saving people, bringing them home' variety. And this would weigh heavily on Sam's morals. Not only does he either not get all the info on these ops or doesn't agree with them, but he's also leaving his unit, the 58th, without him. Which could lead to guilt if some of his fellow soldiers are killed or wounded and not rescued in time, because the Falcons weren't there to save them. And of course, Riley's eventually death perhaps resulting from one of these dangerous ops. (Covered up officially as that 'standard night mission' which is all Sam's allowed to say.)

I think something like that could've shown Sam's disillusionment with government agencies and military institutions (especially when propped up by propaganda). And mirrored comments made by both Steve and Sam in Winter Solider and Civil War.

"The people giving me orders are down to zero..."

"Agendas change."

"What if this sends us somewhere we don't think we should go? What if there's somewhere we need to go and they don't let us?"

"How long you gonna play both sides?"

Part of Sam's reluctance in taking up the shield could've been his past experience in his abilities being turned to something he didn't sign up for and ultimately misused. (Also a parallel to Bucky!) A conversation prior to Riley's death, between him and Sam, could've shown that growing distrust in what they've been made to do.

Anyway, then (this post's already too long lol), later in the season, there's an almost entirely Bucky-centric flashback episode (like Ellie's ep7 in TLoU). Maybe Sam's injured and in hospital after the fight with Walker for the shield (but also Lemar doesn't get killed, because i say so), and this leaves Bucky in crisis mode for personal and plot reasons.

I haven't nailed down the specifics of these flashbacks as much, but the general scope would include: Bucky being drafted (not freely enlisting), seeing his family happy pre-War (little Rebecca?!), Hydra (not torture porn, just as in he's turned into a weapon and ties in with his guilt/list later), hiding out post CAWS (bonus points if Sam DID find Bucky first, I can't help it 😉), isolation, but sees someone that embodies so much that's good and worth believing in (Sam), starting to heal in Wakanda (like with Ayo) (again, bonus points if Sam's there at least once).

All that to say, Bucky's themes could highlight his displacement and disenfranchisement from his time, all his family, himself, and that clawing back of identity and belief in Good Things. And because in my scenario, I have Sam incapacitated to prompt this time of Bucky self-reflection, these flashbacks show that Sam is one of those Good Things that Bucky has grown to believe in and gravitate to. Which shows onscreen WHY he's been so adamant that Sam take up the shield. (Even though he went about this is a counter-intuitive and unhelpful way, we can fix this too). Sam inspired good in him, 'brought him home' (pararescue parallel!), and Bucky believes Sam can do the same for a broken world.

*Sam obviously wakes up, plot continues, he goes home while Bucky (being unable to verbalise yet everything we the audience now understands) has gone off to find Zemo, beg Wakanda for a fancy, over the top, 'I'm sorry I've been a dick, but I love you, I believe in you, and this is here should you choose it and if you need it' apology proposal present.

(I jest. This can all be read as strictly MCU-approved platonic. But this is tumblr, and me, so let's be real 😉)

I also would add, in the last episode, when Bucky is in NY, a scene of him contacting an older Rebecca. (Maybe this is something Sam asks him early in the show if he's done yet and Bucky brushes off, aggravated. Showing that he knows he has family alive, but his fear and other issues have been keeping him from reaching out - like what's kept him from Sam.) Because then you have back to back scenes of Bucky reconnecting to his old family, leading right into the dock party with Sam (his new family!) Visually showing he's healing that bridge of displacement and isolation.

Anyway, if you've stuck around to the end, thank you! That's how I would've incorporated flashbacks into a rough approximation of a TFATWS show to flesh out Sam and Bucky in relation to the show's themes and each other. (Obviously, we could fix all the Flagsmasher, power broker, serum stuff too. But the general plot outline still works for the purpose of this idea.)

Thanks for reading 😘

[logicheartsoul]

That scene is so good with the lines and the way they look at each other but also the way the camera moves to pan over to both their reactions when it happens???

Can I interest y'all with a header edits I made ages ago that shows both their expressions at the same time?

(I made like....17 of these, I need to post them I swear lmao)

Like look them! Their eyes are saying SO MUCH! The nonverbal body language in a few seconds is like!!!

Sam says that Karli wants him to come alone, but he still look at Bucky's face for his response and somehow, reassurance, just like he did back during Endgame (which, btw, according to the script, they intended for Bucky to give Sam reassurance). And Sam is so tense, things could go wrong, but he lets Bucky have his back anyway like !!!!!!

Because it seems to be that some asshats are running around spreading some anti-Sam and anti-SamBucky hate for no apparent reason other than being insecure little baby people online (bless their hearts), I thought I'd start a little game, if people will join me.

Talk about one of your favorite SamBucky canon moments and tag some people you think would like to participate 😌

Mine is when these two dorks roll in the field.

There's something wild about the fact that this is actually canon. I love that it comes after Sam saves Bucky from the wheels of a speeding truck and that Bucky holds onto Sam as they roll, trying to protect Sam from the brunt of toppling into that field together at that speed. Idk, I just love it ❤️

No pressure tagging 🤔 @logicheartsoul @jemgirl86 @siancore @cobrafantasies @questinwitchface @elektraking @funsized-loser

What are y'all's favorite canon moments? 🥰

[logicheartsoul]

This meta has been a few years coming, but recently inspired due to: 1) Sian (@siancore) mentioning and incorporating into her amazing fic End of the World the moment that this meta is about, and 2) talking to Mexi (@thatmexisaurusrex) about this and then when she made that "share your fave sambucky moments that are canon" post, I knew this needed to finally been written and have its own proper post.

(Also, to @elektraking who wanted to be pinged when I finally wrote this, I finally did it!)

This post is long and image heavy but I didn't want to put it all under a read more.

We all know this scene from Infinity War, it's been all over people's dashes and giffed and etc etc. We also know it's a pretty quick scene, not necessarily a blink and you miss it one, but because it moves pretty quickly. If you're not paying too much attention to everyone else in the background, things will slip by.

However, watching things in 4K can really make things interesting because 1) you can zoom in and 2) you can zoom in and see some pretty clear detail, like the fact Sam and Bucky are looking at each other during this entire scene.

You can see here that everyone present except Sam isn't really watching Steve and Bucky interact -- either they're blocked from of the camera (Rhodey, Ayo, Bruce) or they're not looking at them (Nat has her eyes closed, T'Challa is looking at the side).

Sam is clearly in Bucky's line of sight, even if Bucky is looking at Steve (because we know Steve is moving closer to him and is about to talk to him)

On zoom in, we can see Sam is not zoned out, this is a very focused look at what is happening in front of him.

The next moment is where Steve goes in for the hug, but during this hug, a couple of things happen: 1) Sam moves closer towards them a bit, 2) he and Bucky actually DO stare at each other over Steve's shoulder

And for more than a few moments. Sort of significant if you think about the fact that Sam and Bucky seem to communicate a lot with nonverbal looks between each other. (We see this a few times in Civil War, and then later in this movie, but that will be even more apparent as fact in Endgame and, of course, TFATWS.)

And perhaps this could be passed off as "looking at each other coz we're looking in the same direction" except for the fact that Bucky makes a deliberate look at Sam when we get the pan over to his face.

When Steve backs away from the hug, we see Sam is still looking at Bucky, so we can assume during the entire exchange when the camera goes towards Bucky, Sam is still doing that.

Which leads us to when the camera pans over to Bucky.

(Yeah, yeah the cropping on this is kinda weird for me, but I wanted to make sure you could see his face.)

Steve proceeds to ask Bucky how he's doing. And of course, Bucky gives some kind of cutesy quip that fills space and time before going to the next big plot thing.

It's very interesting that Bucky pauses right after saying "uh, not bad", but as indicated by the arrow I put in the gif, he's staring in the exact direction where Sam would be. Because if you notice in the screenshots before this moment, above, when Bucky and Steve break away from the hug, Sam is in Bucky's line of sight but somewhat to the side, the same direction as the glance in the gif.

Now, as we know, the others are barely watching Steve and Bucky's interaction except Sam, who's still watching with focused attention.

If you were standing where Sam is standing, watching all of this, hearing Steve asking Bucky, "how's it going" and he responds "uh, not bad," and pauses WHILE looking at a glance in your direction, most people would consider that a moment.

And why wouldn't it be a moment? No one else is paying attention to Bucky or Steve except Sam. Bucky and Sam have before this comment were looking at each other when Steve brings in Bucky to a hug. Hell, Bucky could have just said "for the end of the world" without looking sideways and the scene would've worked as intended.

Yet, he gives that glance, and has a smile as he says, "not bad". While looking at Sam. It's so quick, yet it says so much. And considering how we know it's canon for them to be able to speak volumes by just sharing glances at each other (hello Sam looking at Bucky during Endgame), why wouldn't that apply here too? Because the glance wasn't really needed if you think about it.

And of course, Bucky deflects with his "for the end of the world" coz 1) he doesn't want Steve to try to make more small talk and 2) world ending shit is happening, they do NOT have time to stand around, they need to coordinate and they're on a time table. Because we all know Steve, he would want to know the reason why Bucky is actually smiling probably one of the first genuine smiles he's given on screen since TWS.

Anyway, we all know the rest: the plot moves forward, Sam and Bucky end up standing close to each other to witness Thanos' forces trying to get through Wakanda's shields, and then they end up being blipped.

Still, while a short, quick moment, on closer inspection, a lot can be said. Another in a line of Sam and Bucky's "saying things with a look" moments, but an underappreciated one.

[abarbaricyalp]

Hi! for fandom ask game: 1, 2, and 5 (if you want to answer that many) 😊

Thanks for asking! More good questions. From this ask meme

1: List three positive things from your current fandom

a) We love Sam wilson. I've been trying to branch out recently and some people don't make it easy! 😬

b) Small but mighty! I love that there are so many constants in the fandom, even as interests shift. It's really nice to have an enduring community

c) The artwork (fics, art, gifs, meta etc all of it) that come out of sambucky fandom is RIDICULOUS. There's slightly more than 8 hours (generous) of MCU material and yet people are out here creating award winning things with so much obvious love. So thankful for artists of all ilk.

2: A headcanon you weren't sure about at first but now enjoy

Hmmmm. I don't change my mind very often 🫣 I think the closest thing is the kiddos calling Bucky 'Uncle Bucky.' I don't personally use it, but I do appreciate it more the more i see it now.

3: Something you see a lot in fics and love

Bucky being so stupid gone on Sam. I love every variation of it. I love the more Canon compliant "we're fighting but I still adore you." I love when Sam can't see it. I love when Bucky thinks it's unrequited and pines. I love it when it's 40s Bucky/ memory regression but he's still instantly into Sam. I love it when it's domestic and sappy. I love when it's angsty and causes that "one weak spot" moment. I love when he's goofy about it, especially in public or accidentally. Every variation, every scenario, every time.

[feathersofvibranium]

Because he loves him

Here’s a thing - why do you guys think Sam was going along with Bucky’s stupid and reckless ideas in tfatws? All the joking about sam being a moron sexual aside, like actually why would he do it?

He’s very headstrong and doesn’t have trouble telling people no or to fuck off, yet with bucky he was as pliant and sam wilson could possibly be, and like, bucky’s ideas were all very reckless and kinda stupid but yet, Sam went along with almost all of them. So why? Why would he do that?

Okay, the reason I kept posting about this was because I spent a whole evening writing this ask down and I thought it would be unfortunate if it went to waste. Also, it would be fun to have more Sambucky meta discuss which is a bit lacking lately. I was glad when you said you finally got my posts and you said you'll answer. But its been more than a week and you don't seem interested since you avoid my posts so I'm letting it go lol. I'm gonna post my thoughts in the tag next time.

Hi Anon !!!! I'm sincerely sorry for taking so much time to reply to your other asks which led you to believe I was avoiding your asks when I wasn't.

I really thought I could answer in one day but I received all the asks on the same day, and some of them that had numbers and the other asks didn't, so I was first confused about the orders. When I really to an ask with multiple part, I also have to crop the other parts and then put them in the reply of the first ask which isn't a Big deal, I know. But the pas few weeks I had been busy and was only coming on Tumblr for a short time, going in the tags reblogging stuff and leaving.

Let me show you what my ask box looks like with your asks (I removed the asks from other people):

I get that you had to send it multiple times because it wasn't working and it's ok but please be patient with me too when I take some time for answering, even if I think I can do it in one day

The reason why I'm explaining this is because you assume that I'm ignoring or avoiding your posts when in fact, I just didn't have the Time to do it at that moment, but I was going to answer eventually since I told you that I would. I just needed some extra time.

I'm just a random person who accepts to take asks and also accepts the Anon bc I know that some people prefer to share their fandom takds anonymously but in return the agreement is that I will sometimes take a little bit more time than usual for some of the asks.

Sorry for the extra long explanation but I felt that your ask was a little bit passive agressive so I wanted to clear things up.
