Call Me Bobby | MCU Thunderbolts ff

In the wake of battle and buried pasts, John Walker and Bob navigate uneasy truce, quiet rooms, and shared silences. Through tension and fragile kindness, they learn to understand one another-slowly bridging the gap between sense of duty and vulnerability, mistrust and care, until something gentler begins to take root.

Or: me-extremely weary of superhero movies-was brought to a showing of Thunderbolts by one of my bffs. I came out the theater a changed person.
