shoutout to the real villain of cap3: the person who told steve rogers that peggy was dead VIA TEXT
like Jesus, dude, maybe use a couple of those Anytime Minutes. start a real conversation with “i am so sorry to be the one to tell you this.” it’s not a fuckin telegram where you’re buying words per nickel. CARTER PUSHING DAISIES STOP BUMMER STOP WELL GOTTA RUN
I was very disgruntled on Steve’s behalf about this at first, but then I started to think that this text probably came from a member of Peggsy’s family like one of her kids or grandkids who grew up with her and were closer to her and either a) probably knows Steve very well by this point and therefore this sort of communication is okay as it’s probably part of a much longer ongoing conversation, or b) was too busy dealing with their own grief and feelings to consider anyone else’s, y’know?
