I
want to see Steve viciously defensive of Bucky in Civil War. I want to
see him shove Tony away from Bucky with fire in his eyes. I want to see
him lose himself when Rumlow taunts him about Bucky remembering him. I
want to see Steve willing to burn the world to the ground to keep
everyone who wants to harm Bucky away. Steve saw him fall to his death
but Bucky’s here and he’s alive. Despite all the terrible shit he
endured, he’s here and god forbid anyone who threatens to take him away
from Steve again.And this, dear fans, just may be Steve’s dark side.
This has always been Steve’s dark side.
Exactly.
Bucky has always brought out Steve’s dark side. I saw another post
talking about how Bucky was the most dangerous man on the planet, not
from being the Winter Soldier, but because what he is capable of
inspiring Steve to do. Which is why I so badly want to see that side of
Steve in Civil War because everyone who has seen how far he is willing
to go when Bucky is involved (the Commando’s, Peggy etc.) are gone. None
of the Avenger’s has really seen that reckless abandon.And we have that nice little set up in AoU between Steve and Tony
where Tony mentions not trusting someone who doesn’t have a dark side
and Steve replying that Tony just hasn’t seen it yet. I want him to see
it now.
