imagine everyone in the soul stone frantically looking for their loved ones, but bucky just sits there quietly and knows steve isn’t in the stone and he doesn’t have anyone else to look for
This broke me until I realized Sam would most likely find Bucky seating alone, then instantly relax from his once panicked state before charging in full force towards Barnes, shouting his name as loud as he can, only to have Bucky turn around with his eyes bulged with surprise and dread seconds before Sam crashes his whole body on him, happily cursing him out and suddenly I’m alive again.
Sam and Bucky’s relationship is one of those ‘Only I get to trash talk about him’ kind of relationships. Sam calls Bucky a greasy haired douche bag every morning and Bucky once forced Sam to sit through a half hour slideshow of ‘why the Winter Soldier is better than the Falcon’. But once a reporter said that Bucky was a danger on the team and Sam threw a brick at him.
