can i just say, as a retired bucky player, that i am Not Optimistic about this Thunderbolts shit

his hair looks fucking awful and why is he in politics

part of me has been like 'what if it's good, will it nudge me out of retirement' but now i'm like 'i'm probably staying very retired'

i laughed about his arm in the dishwasher

but otherwise it looks like this is yelena's movie and bucky (and his bad hair) are set dressing so while i never retired im not inspired

the arm in the dishwasher was the most IC thing out of anything in that trailer for him tbh

just my hot take over here but bucky barnes has neither the temperament nor the shitty morals required to be a congressman like they're saying he is

i feel like bucky would just

walk out of every debate

lmfao yes exactly

imagine him navigating people trying to do campaign contribution bribes for shit he doesn't agree with

like

unless they're trying to Bernie Sanders him it's just #notmybucky

who would even vote for bucky

BUCKY WOULDNT EVEN CAMPAIGN

THAT'S WHAT I TOLD MY WIFE

WHO THE FUCK WOULD VOTE FOR HIM

HE USED TO MURDER PEOPLE

he would not campaign and also all the war crimes??

WHO WOULD VOTE FOR HIM

have we forgotten the war crimes??

the man was literally a most-wanted terrorist??

also i dont want to think about what party bucky is

his opponent would just absolutely destroy him on that talking point alone??

bucky didnt even have furniture in his apartment the last time we saw him and we're to believe he's a functioning member of congress

he straight up did not even own like a side table

he didnt own a couch

he had one chair

that man would disassociate in an ikea and now he's making decisions for the entire district and like

you're telling me he FEELS CONFIDENT ENOUGH IN HIMSELF AND HIS CHOICES TO DO THAT FOR AN ENTIRE STATE OF PEOPLE?

get fuckin outta here

get outta here

em did i ever tell you about the fic i wrote where he went to ikea and honestly thought about how easy it would be to set off a bomb in there and kill tons of people bc of how the traffic patterns are

IS THIS MAN WHO YOU WANT IN CONGRESS

it's absolutely batshit insane, this fundamental misunderstanding of him as a character

honestly at this point i think sebastian just cashes the checks so he can do what he wants and honestly good for him

even if he weren't a hot mess of mental baggage, he just isn't slimy enough to be a politician

you do you

bucky's too...

nice. i mean he's grumpy we know this but deep down

he's too nice

yes like

he doesnt want to hurt anyone

i don't want to say he's not morally grey because he's totally down to do some lite murder but like

from an ethical and moral standpoint he is too inherently good to work in politics, like his foundational morals are too strong for that bullshit

yeah but some diet murder for someone who is killing people? absolutely

but yeah he's too good to compromise on some things

some things that are necessary to compromise on in order to climb the political ladder

he just. wouldn't.

also wouldnt you think given how many politicians bucky has assassinated and for what reasons he would never want to be one???????

sorry i dont want to be like "not my bucky" but

"not my bucky"

yeah man, you and me both, handshake meme #notmybucky

im literally losing my mind

i have tags to do and im still stuck on

who voted for bucky and why

lmfao honestly like

and like what political party is this man affiliated with

the only people who would vote for him are alt right gun nuts because they fundamentally do not understand how much he hates that part of his history and also he would not be their political demographic at fucking all

unless he's an independent i dont buy it

RIGHT

THATS WHAT IM SAYING

i went and told my husband and he goes "at least he's getting laid now because of all the interns" and i almost threw a shoe at him

oh my fucking god

i hate it here

this is why i'm mcu retired

like i still play bucky but

i guess in some alt universe where bucky doesnt want to be bothered by anyone

i will play my little buckynat psls here and there but otherwise j'refuse

also just

the hair, again, fucking... why

why

it looks awful and also if he's going into politics wouldn't it have been smarter to keep it short

lol my husband came in here and said "honey, its okay, maybe he'll get assassinated"

LMAO my wife was literally like 'maybe they'll kill him'

the writers really said "sebastian played trump aight bet"

they really did say that shit

they really did

sebastian decided he wanted freedom

so he's doing this

ahahaha

free yourself man

my wife was my main Steve player for years and years and she is also mcu retired but she's invested enough to be looking into the Thunderbolt writers right now and apparently they're all just mostly comedy writers

which does not fill me with any confidence whatsoever

oh yeah

that does not instill confidence

this is not something i thought i would ever say but

can i have the russos in their winter soldier era back

sighs a lot

(i love how this whole tag plurk became two poor bucky rpers lamenting)

me: im retired
also me: but here's 9 paragraphs about why i'm mad

anyway i'm gonna eat some dinner and shotgun a monster and then maybe try and bang out some tags

cool cool cool so after the event wrap-up i'll slap up a top level for lil npc threading, i haven't done that before in this game, v hype

looking at my google calendar like what the fuck does take pop out of the jukebox mean, is there soda in my-

oh right

i marked on my calendar the day Dean's allowed to remove Taylor Swift from the Roadhouse in Abraxas

lmfao god

a literal year, what is time

or wait no, he'll keep the taylor swift, he likes taytay, but the other bullshit Julie made him house as penance gets to go

TAKE POP OUT OF JUKEBOX

dean must be celebrating

i feel like he's over-exaggerating his celebration but also discreetly there are like... 5 songs he's leaving in bc he likes them and he's just refusing to acknowledge it

ofc there are

which means i immediately have to pick 5 and add them to the roadhouse youtube playlist

sansa needs to meet dean, i just remembered

dean saw the show

apparently she added beyonce gaga and katy so at least that narrows down my options

dhfjkjhghkj

we're doing Single Ladies because i imagine when he's alone he does the dance

gaga's applause because it sounds a little like Bowie

and then katy perry's hot n cold because it slaps

the end, those are the ones that get to stay

love when you're committed to a game long enough to do these things

lmfao big same

someone apping in next round like: wow so ooc why does Dean Winchester have Beyonce in his jukebox

WELL LET ME TELL YA

it all started 2 years ago--

alright let's go

(GoT) Sandor Clegane || A Tragic Hero

just kidding i got distracted but now we're actually going

bucky → nat is it wild that i miss the NPC Rebecca that Jo plays in our dom/sub buckynat psl

i mean i know that started as a dom/sub psl but let's be honest that shit grew into something Bigger and we had a lot of bucky rebecca sibling feels in that

"let's just do a D/s normalized work sex thread! it'll be a one-off!" seven hundred and fifty comments of deep, lengthy emotional growth later........

they were just such good brother & sister and i wish we'd gotten more into seeing their dynamic with the other two girls and their mom

esp since i never really fleshed them out as much as rebecca, except for Mary's deep, deep crush on Steve

sandor → levi

im absolutely howling, this rando joel turned out to be the harry potter i've been playing snape against for 2 fucking years

absolutely slain

no wonder the chemistry was on point

sandor → daisy

sandor → sansa

sandor → randvi

dean → ciri

Man, I loved Rebecca and Bucky in that PSL. Just giving each other shit.

Also, I have not seen the trailer, but. What? Are we sure it’s not a dream sequence? Where does Bucky the politician make any sense?

they gave each other shit constantly and also loved each other so much

unfortunately no, it is not a dream sequence

all sources seem to confirm that he's a fucking politician now and it's the stupidest fucking thing i have ever heard

at this point im like, if you're gonna assassinate his character just do it literally and spare us all

No thank you. That’s so dumb. Gonna cross my fingers for alternate reality / mirror ‘verse.

i'm not holding my breath

this is why i'm retired

i don't have the energy for another mid-tier marvel quip-fest more interested in cameos than characterization

Rebecca and Bucky do love each other so much. I need to tag you back in the thread where she’s in the hospital

u definitely should

no pressure tho i mean i tag u back literally 4 years later so

That’s very true
