Sure, Contessa. Nick Fury has really gone and kicked the bucket this time. Mmhm. No one can come back from the dead. Steve's look says it all. Captain America 449

"Sam Finds the Note" and "Bucky Has Regrets"
This is for the @sambuckylibrary's TFATWS Anniversary Event 2024's prompt "Divorce Arc" Keep reading has the description of the gifs.
"Sam Finds the Note"
Sam stands on The Paul & Darlene as he holds Bucky's goodbye note, which reads:
"I'm sorry, Sam. I have to join them to protect you all. - Bucky"
The dialogue goes:
Sarah: Please come back with me to the house, Sam.
Sam: I'll meet you at the truck in a second, Sarah.
Sarah: ...Okay, I'll be in the car.
Sam: ...
Sam: Bastard...
Sam: We could have fought this together.
Sam: If you believed in me...
Sam: If you believed in us...
Sarah: ...Sam?
Sarah: ...Sam?
Sam: I'm coming.
Sarah: Okay, Sam.
"Bucky Has Regrets"
Bucky holds his head in his hands on a plane as the net behind him sways.
The dialogue goes:
Bucky: I'm such an idiot.
Contessa Valentina Allegra de la Fontaine (Val): Stop complaining, Sergeant.
Val: A few missions and I'll let you go back to playing house with the new Captain America...
Val: ...for a day before I bring you back in.
Bucky: I should have listened to Sam.
Val: And, what? Let me seize The Paul & Darlene? Bring Sam in for vigilantism? I would have.
Val's phone rings, rings, rings.
Bucky: Why did I only leave a note?
Val: Get a grip before we land, Sergeant.
Val: I don't have time for this - Val speaking. What's up?
Val walks away and her heels clack, clack, clack away.
Bucky: Sam was right.
Yelena: Probably. But you're here now, Barnes.
Bucky: I should have stayed. Fought this.
Yelena: She threatened your family.
Bucky: Yelena, Sam's never going to forgive me.
Yelena: Maybe he'll be so mad that he'll find us and save us to give you a piece of his mind.
Bucky: Why did I panic and agree to this?
Yelena: Because you're an idiot like you said.
Bucky: I'm so sorry, Sam...

Okay I think I’m ganna elaborate on my Thunderbolts and New World Order theory because I can and I’m having IMMENSE brain rot rn. (Also please lemme know your thoughts or feel free to add on to this)
- General Ross as we know plays a pretty big role in both films. Neither of our boys have any love for Ross ESPECIALLY Sam, after the way he was treated on the raft. So when Ross starts gaining more political power, Sam is most likely immediately distrusting and suspicious of it and knows Ross well enough to know that he would be up to something more now with his presidential power.
- so essentially (either through the grape vine, walkers big ass mouth, or possibly even Everett Ross, I’ll get into my theory about him in a minute😏) Sam gets wind of what Thaddeus and Val are up to and don’t trust either of them to have control over a team of super powered individuals. So Sam wants to know more about this new team on the playing field but doesn’t have a contact on the inside that he trusts enough to get more information.
- that’s is, until Bucky potentially volunteers himself. Then there’s a lot of back and forth between them “Bucky no it’s dangerous” Sam my middle name is danger 😡” “Sam you trust me right?” “With my life Bucky” “then trust me to do this for you, we need a man on the inside” “if you do this, you keep in contact with me you understand? No more of this disappearing on me act” “I promise, you won’t lose me again” blah blah blah I’ll let the fic writers come up with more poetic shit
- But the question is, how do they get Bucky into the Thunderbolts without drawing suspicion? Well, anyone remember this?
Tumblr media
- there’s a video of Bucky acting as the winter soldier somewhere out there. It’s likely that Sam asked Sharon to get a hold of it and keep it off web. But for Operation infiltrate thunderbolts, its the perfect “evidence” to have released. So Sharon, with the permission of Sam and Bucky, leaks it online. It’s the perfect ploy to make Thaddeus think he has some sort of leverage or reason over Bucky now. Because let’s be honest, Thaddeus can’t refuse the offer of getting the winter soldier to work for him and do his bidding. Bucky of course acts oblivious to the video, and let’s himself get arrested once Thaddeus gets the authority to do so.
- Wam Bam Bippity Bow, Bucky is now on the thunderbolts team, acting like this wasn’t the plan, acting pissed that he’s there, acting forlorn and dejected that he’s tied back down to the government, leaving Val and Thaddeus none the wiser (Ha ha suck it assholes) all while secretly reporting back to Sam every-time he can when the cost is clear.
- and all of this can either take place in the final or first act of Cap 4 or the beginning act of Thunderbolts. It’s the perfect reason as to why They won’t be in the same projects, but would still give them each an opportunity to appear for some scenes in eachothers movies (BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT GETTING DIVORCED DAMMIT).
- Now if you want to add ANOTHER spicy level to this well look no further! Remember that I mentioned Everett Ross before? There have been a few rumors that Thunderbolts is going to mainly center around the search for Vibranium, and it would make sense from what we saw of Val in Wakanda Forever. There are also rumors that Sam might appear in secret invasion, where Everett Ross also is. Thus giving them a potential connection.
- Everett as we know is highly trusted by the Wakandans, so we know he likely tells them what Val is up to with the thunderbolts and the potential vibranium plot. Everett however can’t get involved because he was already arrested once by Val, and the Wakandans can’t be seen interfering with international affairs based off a hunch they got from an “anonymous” source. Gosh if only there was an avenger with ties to Wakanda who still may have to redeem themselves after releasing Zemo…..oh wait😏
- It’s a nice way for Bucky to earn the trust of the Wakandans back completely while simultaneously keeping an eye on the new team recruits to see who may actually be avengers material for Sam (Yelena and Ghost obviously) instead of just being a thunderbolt for the government to use as a living weapon.
Ok that’s it, that’s my master theory. I’ll probably add to this later cause I just have too many thoughts and the brain rot has overtaken me once again

I forgot who it was but I remember someone replying to me about how MCU Valentina Allegra de Fontaine isn’t a bad person and that I was being too quick to judge her based on her interactions with John Walker and Yelena Belova. You know, as if recruiting an unstable war vet who committed war crimes into her shady team and ordering an assassination on an original Avenger wasn’t that bad.
After what Val said about dreaming about the day that America acquires vibranium weapons, even at the cost of what happens to nations like Wakanda, I stand by my early assessment of the character lol. That line was just pure evil.
As a side note, one of my favorite reactions to the character that I’ve seen on this site is that Val is the MCU’s Lauren Boebert. Maybe part of the reason why I thought it was hilarious was because my first thought was that she’s the MCU Sarah Palin.

The President wants to take offensive action against Wakanda. What type of offensive action? Destabilization.
