SIX-SENTENCE SUNDAY

Oh Hi, I’m here again!! Hope you’re all having a wonderful weekend. I tried to mentally prepare myself for sharing today way back on Wed night when I had a marvelous meltdown…and it appears to have worked bc here I am! Hooray!

Also, I wrote this morning…words appear to still be pouring out of this brain into this new fic so *shrugs* let’s keep going…

**I AM POSTING QUICKLY WHILE MY BRAIN APPEARS TO BE COOPERATING, I WILL RESPOND TO ALL OF YOUR AMAZING POSTS LATER TONIGHT!**

Thank you so much for the tags, I seriously cherish you all. ❤️@fatalfangirl@you-remind-me-of-the-babe@facewithoutheart@martsonmars@dragoneggo@aroace-genderfluid-sheep@confused-bi-queer@ivelovedhimthroughworse@johnwgrey LOOK AT HOW MUCH YOU ARE ALL ACCOMPLISHING! FRACKING MAGIC!

So I mentioned I always write with music (I always *everything* all day long with music) so I’m going to share the song I’m writing this scene to…it feels like cheating! Bc I’m kinda telling you what vibes you should be getting from this piece of writing when ideally the writing should speak for itself…but well, you can skip it if you want .

So this is from the same fic I shared on Wed, (sad Baz back in London)…but this scene is…sexier? This is literally from this morning so…obvs, very WIP.

BAZ

I can hear his footsteps behind me. “Hey!” he shouts, and it’s a demand.

I turn slowly to him, steeling my face, hands in my pockets. 

“Snow.”

I take him in for a moment before he shakes his head at me. “You’re scared.” It’s accusatory. His jaw is locked, eyes bright. 

“Scared?” I attempt a look of sneering indifference.

“Scared.” He lets the word fall, heavy from his lips as he takes a step toward me. “Do I frighten you, Baz?” 

That goddamned jaw. I want to grab him there. Hold him in place, bite him, taste him (I still know the way he tastes), keep him.

“Do you…frighten me?” I take a slow predatory step toward him.

“It’s ok to admit it, Baz.” He’s not being soft, he’s challenging me.

I take another step.  I can meet a challenge.

“I’m scared of nothing.” Can he feel the lie? I step closer still. The air between us is thick, heady. 

I watch the muscles in his neck, the bob of his throat as he swallows. The twisting of tendons in his forearms. He’s a taut line…can I make him snap? Explode? Come undone? He’s so beautiful when he comes undone.

“Do you really want to do this right now, Simon? Hmm? You want to keep pushing me to do bad things to you?”

“Bad things?” His eyes are on my mouth as he steps closer.

“Horrible,” I whisper, and he’s close enough to feel my breath on his lips. I’m vibrating with the tension.

He finds my eyes again. “Show me.”

And…scene!

K, also tagging more beautiful friends who maybe haven’t shared yet today?! @cutestkilla@whatevertheweather@palimpsessed@bookish-bogwitch@kherub@creepyspice@urban-sith@aristocratic-otter@frjsti@angelsfalling16

A strong man who has known power all his life may lose respect for that power, but a weak man knows the value of strength.

There are a lot of character defining lines for Steve, but this little one liner gets buried by the “I can do this all day” and “the little guy from Brooklyn who didn’t know how to run away from a fight”.

It’s what sets Steve apart from most of the other superheroes: he didn’t have a PhD, he didn’t have millions/billions under his name, he wasn’t a god. He wasn’t even someone you could call young and healthy. Erskine tells him he was chosen - not because he didn’t have those luxuries - but because he knew what it meant to be deprived of things ordinary people take for granted.

And it is this fact that makes his catchphrase so much more meaningful. It isn’t easy for pre-serum Steve to do what he does, to stand up, to speak out, to then grit his teeth and bear the consequences of taking a stance; but nevertheless, he will do it because it was that important to give the weak and the disadvantaged a voice.

All of this is important in his arc. He never lost perspective on what strength and power means. By knowing what it feels to be on the receiving end, Steve remains always wary about what absolute strength would mean. “This isn’t freedom, it’s fear.” “Sounds like a cold world, Tony.” “It’s run by people with agendas, and agendas change.” This is why Steve has always fought for individual responsibility, and against giving power to big institutions who have, in his experience, always walked over the weakest in society.

And this is why, unless they give Carter the same backstory of poor health, racial discrimination, being orphaned and poverty, it’s an insult to suggest she is morally equivalent to Steve, because as it stands with her backstory in AC, she has known power her whole life and none of her actions in the MCU have suggested she knows the value of the strength she gains through her organisation. To have her say “I can do this all day” is a mockery to what that phrase means to that skinny little kid in a back alley who chose battles bigger than himself, because it was important to teach people who are born with that strength to fear the very people they dismiss as weak.

And this is why Steve is the people’s hero.

THIS!!!!!

Who’s next?
