Sam Wilson, member of the Air Force’s 58th rescue squadron, has dedicated his life to saving those in need of saving: dependable and resourceful, he is simply the best in his squad. Sam gets an opportunity, along with his fellow airman Riley, to test out the EXO-7 wing program: a suit that broadens the horizon of rescue operations all across the world. But there are still a few ruffles in the EXO-7’s programming to smooth out before the wings are issued to the entire squadron.
“So what are we, some kind of guinea pigs?” Riley jokes after Sam’s wings malfunction during a routine op. “Doesn’t seem like they care much if we survive at all.” Riley shrugs sourly. “Seeing you fall out there—if I hadn’t caught you…”
“Thanks for that, by the way,” Sam grins. “But come on, Riley. We get to fly. It’s worth it, isn’t it?”
and when i first saw it i was like “aww Nat jumping into steve’s lap that’s so cute she’s like AHH STEVE SAVE ME” and then i was thinking ‘well she probably realized he’s way stronger than she is and could help shield her if they crashed’
but then i kept watching it and i noticed how she immediately pulls him forward
and first i thought it was the momentum of her jump but you can clearly see in the gif how she gets settled (quickly) THEN pulls him close to her
and then i realized
that is a bullet hole.
Nat somehow knew EXACTLY where Steve was gonna get shot at, jumped up into his seat, and saved him
Natasha Fucking Romanoff
!!!!!!!!!!!!
she didn’t just jump in the front just to save steve, tws shot at her first
she also pushed sam away from the bullet bc she knew he’s next
all of this in the span of 3 seconds how fast do u think her brain works i mean DAMN
Who wants to bet Steve shows up at Sam’s house halfway through Age of Ultron like “I’m SO sorry for doing this to you again” while the whole Avengers team stands behind him, shuffling their feet and looking liked kicked puppies.
And Sam just goes, “I don’t have enough OJ for you all,” as he sighs and lets them file into his house.
