Cast your mind back, back, back, my dearest darling nerdlets, to the year…

(*Googles*)

…2011!

And the first Captain America film!

BEWARE: SPOILERS EVERYWHERE!!!

Now, my children, let me teach you the ballad of Steve and Bucky…

⭐ Steve and Bucky grow up in 1920s and 1930s Brooklyn, it’s rough, it’s tough, and it’s a difficult place for two ‘good friends’ to grow up…

(…they’re Gay, Harold. But Disney and Marvel will never allow this.)

⭐ Flash-forward to the 1940s. And Steve is a murder muffin who wants to go fight for his country.
