What is Purim like in Steve and Bucky's house post-canon?
I think they spent Purim partially locked in something of a hamantaschen showdown. It starts when Bucky reluctantly agrees to make Steve’s with poppy seed filling, because he’s grown kind of fond of the guy despite his questionable taste.
But Steve, master strategist that he is, gets an inch and goes for a mile. When he brings up a savory spinach hamantaschen he saw at a street fair (super duper casually of course), Bucky freezes dangerously mid dough stir and tells Steve not to come back into the kitchen until he’s had a nice long think about his life choices. Because Bucky is a traditionalist, okay?
Steve does no such thing. He’s maybe already bought the ingredients. He maybe has grand plans to co-opt the air fryer. Steve is a pretty resourceful guy, after all.
Bucky declares the resulting hamantaschen a crime against dessert. Clint declares them pretty good, then promptly withdraws his verdict after catching a terrifying glare from Bucky and deciding that no amount of leftovers are worth getting in the middle of whatever this is.
Bucky threatens to hold Steve’s poppy seeds hostage until Steve brokers a truce: he’ll do all the corner pinching in exchange for the goods. Bucky accepts (cleaning dough and poppy seeds out of the plates of his vibranium fingers is a real bitch.)
Everyone noshes happily. (Bucky maybe disappears the air fryer.)
