ok imagine this though
- in the soul stone bucky is sitting alone minding his own business when a little girl no more than 4 comes up to him and asks for help.
- At first he’s taken aback because he doesn’t think kids would instantly go up to him.
- ‘do you know where your parents are?’
- ‘no.’
- so he tells her that she can hang out with him until they find them, knowing full well that he might not find them
- she stops crying at his words
- he puts her on his shoulders so she has a better view
- after what seems like hours she starts audibly yawning and bucky takes her off his shoulders but doesn’t set her down as she falls asleep in bucky’s arms
- Bucky doesn’t actually know what her parents look like so he pauses the search until she’s awake again
- they find her mom
- and they both thank him endlessly for his help
- bucky walks away with this feeling that he hasn’t felt in a long time
- that feeling you get when you’ve helped someone with no other agenda other than to just help someone
- and he thinks for the first time since WW2 that he’s not a bad guy
yo this was so pure but honestly, what the fuck dude
