             *Ffw abt a year: I throw myself into work to cope- and I try to stay in contact with everyone but it's hard. Sam is pretty much the only one I still talk to bc he keeps doing missions with us.*

--I also had to help train John Walker.

--As Cap's daughter it was crucial for the public to believe I support all this

--So once he came out as cap we came out as a "couple"


Interview: So, Ms. America—

me: call me y/n, please.

Interviewer: well y/n, what's it like being in love with the man carrying on your Father's legacy?

me: honestly I think that's how he caught my attention in the first place. Most of the guys I work with have gotten a bit cynical- (comes with the territory) but he was still so hopeful, he has great ideals and idk it's kinda inspiring

John: *puts hand on my thigh* aw thanks babe.

interviewer: and you two are certainly the working power couple of our nation. what's it like balancing everything?

john: oh we always manage to find time between training and missions.

me: *laughs* even if training has to be our one-on-one time.

Interviewer: So John, blah blah blah

*Meanwhile*

Bucky: *watching the news* what the fuck is happening


*after the interview*

John: *sigh of relief, running fingers through his hair*

me: *looks at john and laughs* you did good.

john: thanks?

me: you'll get used to it. *changing out of my costume*

John: it's really not that bad

me: sure

john: just- idk i wanted this job to be on the front lines, not to be a show pony.

me: *thinking: that's way too relatable* mhm *pulling on a shirt* but it's part of the job, giving people hope- making them trust their government. *laughs* hell you're their new little poster boy. *takes medication*

john: ...what's that?

me: antidepressants. like I said, you'll get used to it.


*ffw: I go to meet sam for a mission*

sam: wow, if it isn't mrs. America

me: shut up, sam.

sam: i'm just offended i didn't hear about it from you. I thought we were friends.

me: there's not much to tell—

Bucky: *walks in* YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE GIVEN UP THE SHIELD

Sam: good to see you too, buck

Buck: this is wrong- *sees me and shuts up and looks pissed*

Sam: hey, hey, look. we're working, all right? so all this outrage is going to have to wait.

Buck: you didn't know that was gonna happen?

sam: No—

Me: both of you- shut up. ok? we have to go.

Bucky: don't get me started on you... hell--HE'S BEEN IN THE GROUND FOR SIX MONTHS, Y/N!!! He retired a year ago and he's been in...

me: you think i don't know that?! you think— *deep breath* we have to go, sam. *turns to torres* get the plane going, I am going to suit up.

*I leave and they keep arguing but when i get back they're talking about Gandalf*

B: I read the hobbit. In 1937. When it first came out

me: that's hot and all, but sam, we gotta go to Munich.

Sam: let's go.

me: *walks to plane*

sam: *follows me*

B: I'm coming with you

sam: no you are not.


*a few moments later-*

Bucky: So what's the plan?

s: ...

me: you don't have to know the plan bc you are staying here

B: so you have no plan

me: 🙄

sam: *jumps/ flies out with me holding onto him and puts me in the ground, scouting overhead*

B:* jumps*

me: *watching him* *on comms* It's raining men, hallelujah, it's raining men. amen.

sam: *laughing*

b: *grumbles*

sam: you know i got that all on video, right?

B: get that thing out of my face, sam. I'll break it.

me: ok 1) send the video 2) *walks over to bucky* did you fall and can't get up? bc I can get you a button for that

sam: *laughing*

b: mememememe *flips me off and gets up*

me: fine then *starts walking away*

bucky: *walking behind me* So- what's the mission?

me: warehouse blah blah blah

bucky: oh.

me: so how have you been?

bucky: ...why are you dating him?

me: buck—

bucky: no, cause there are so many other fish in the sea. Hell I know two kings (T'Challa and Valkyrie) who would take you back real fast

me: have you talked to anyone in Wakanda lately?

bucky: no...

me: so you don't know?

bucky: know what?!

me: bucky— T'Challa died last month

bucky: ...

me: ...


*one silent walk later, we get there*

Sam: *double checking everything* *to bucky* what is up with you, and why are you staring?

B: where's the guy?

Sam: idk, think they are smuggling weapons tho.

B: well, I think you could be right.

me: and I think you are both idiots, come on. *sneaks inside*

Sam: look at you, buck, spend a little time in Wakanda and you come out White Panther.

me&Bucky: (It's actually) White Wolf. *turns to look at eachother and I smile*

sam: huh?

me: *scoffs & starts moving again*

bucky: *right behind me*

*Sam comes and they start arguing bc Sam is playing Team Captain and Bucky thinks he's invincible*

me: both of you shut up.

both: ...

evils: *walks in and picks stuff up*

me: son of a bitch. more super soldiers— why does everyone... *takes deep breaths*

Sam: ...I think they have a hostage

*we run out, ffw thru fight, when Walker and Hoskins show up I just say "Less talkie more fightie right now" when they keep yapping to Sam and Bucky. I go with Walker and Hoskins when sam fly-saves bucky*
