Karli at the meeting point after she explicitly told Sam to come alone:

I so wish Figaro had been in TFATWS. Would've been so easy even if Hollywood doesn't like working with animals.
I can imagine it though.
Figaro chilling in the kitchen as Sam and Sarah talk...
Sam could've given him a cute little boop or a little forehead kissy kiss like he does to the boat. 🥹
Speaking of the boat, Figaro could've been chilling in the background while Sam worked by himself...
*bonus points if he gets another little kiss boop after Sam kisses the engine. (He's so cute 🥹😭)
(I'm just imagining him sleeping on that shelf in front of the window)
Figaro chilling while watching Sam and Bucky work...
(This would be his audition process for future fellow Cat Dad Bucky 😆)
Bucky waking up and Figaro's just chilling on top of him...
('Congratulations, human, you've made it through to the next stage.')
Basically, Figaro would be all of us! 🥰🥰🥰
Also, sets up nicely Bucky going... "Yeah, I want one of these too. This is nice." (Enter Alpine!)
Seriously though, from a more meta angle, Sam being a cat dad would've been a subtle hint to him not being the extrovert open book many people mistake him for. He doesn't open up easily until the time and effort is taken for him to trust someone. Plus I've always headcanoned that Sam adopted Figaro after he left the air force and Riley died. Like he became a support animal that helped Sam get up in the morning and take care of himself because he had a little buddy to also take care of.
Because I also imagine Figaro chilling in the background of Sam's CAWS home...
(Of course Nat would trust Sam right away. He's a Cat Dad! 😁)
And then during Endgame, Nat could've had Figaro with her! (Maybe Sam's neighbour who'd looked after him after Sam was a fugitive also got blipped and Figaro was sent to the Avengers Compound...)
Especially since this scene between Nat and Steve reflects on the people they've lost. i.e. SAM! The missing third person of their fugitive trio 😭😭
Basically what I'm saying is... I want more Figaro! Everywhere. He represents love and grief but also healing.
Love is stored in the Cat. Thank you.

It's becoming apparent that my Sambucky fic about Bucky seeing the countdown to when he'll realize his feelings for Sam on the back of his hand from the moment he met Sam to post-TFATWS that I thought might be 5K will most likely be over 10K whoops.

Bucky: You hit me with your car!
Sam: It was a gentle nudge, if even that.
Bucky: I know what this is.
Sam: Oh, I'd love to hear this.
Bucky: You were taking your revenge. For the time I ripped out your steering wheel.
Sam: If I wanted revenge for that, I would have bounced you right off my car instead of stopping.

That interview where Anthony said that Sam visited Wakanda every other weekend to check up on Bucky.
Bucky, who usually sticks to his little plot of borrowed, temporary land with his goats, gets presentable every single time. He washes his hair and lets those little kids work some loose braids into it and put it up into a bun or half-bun.
He wears his nicest, cleanest attire too because every other weekend, he gets to introduce Sam to the city life. Bucky knows that Sam doesn't only show up just to check in, as a friend would. The guy wants to taste the food, see the clothes, and hear the dialects -- just wants to get to know the cultures. Sam's all smiles when they go into the cities and he's so lively that Bucky can't help but take on that personality as well.
Bucky finds himself at outdoor bars with his hair loose. People dance and they laugh and sometimes when Bucky pretends to be able to get drunk so Sam doesn't know that he's not such a hardass, they join in. Bucky tries to teach and guide him, based on the moves that others around them perform. Sam learns quick and he's swift. It's a good time.
They try smoothies and all of the meals that are on the healthier side. Bucky convinces Sam to try a different dessert at least once every visit.

i still can’t believe bucky walked up to sam, bumped his shoulder, sam looked and saw it was bucky, he chuckled and smiled, then they watched the sunset together and bucky looked at sam like he’s everything he’s ever wanted and then they smiled at each other and while walking away sam grabbed buckys left shoulder but then he changed to the right one and pulled bucky in closer, tucking him into his side and then they walked off together.
