do you ever think about how sam wilson was in pararescue in the army? as in, it was his job to rescue soldiers? and he did that by flying with a pair of wings on his back? just swooping in and saving people? basically what i’m getting at is actual guardian angel sam wilson bye

rhodey as one of the people behind the EXO-FALCON project, please discuss.

Rhodey’s an engineer with the Air Force whose best friend from college easily created a robot suit for human, please point me towards the best of the billions of fics exploring this premise that I’m sure must exist.

GUYS GUYS GUYS

Given Sam had already been grounded for a few years in Winter Soldier, and there had to be a lot of testing before there were even human testers and they’d had to go through a lot of practice before they were in the field

WHAT IF

Falcon came first.

It was a secret air force project Rhodey was working on, and it was so cool and so complicated that he had to go to his BFF to bounce some ideas off (under strict confidence of course, Tony, this is serious).

Trapped in a cave, with nothing but a box of scraps, Tony thought Rhodey made something that let a man fly. That means it’s possible. Maybe I can do that too.

two great tastes that taste great together:

1) Rhodey’s job, experience, and education all being part of something that speaks to his own passions and not just Tony wrangling

2) RHODEY INSPIRING TONY 

Their first time meeting, Sam’s working really hard to act cool, even though what the hell, Steve has the weirdest friends, how is this is life (and Steve is smirking because he’s an asshole)

And he finally gets over to introduce himself to Stark

And Tony, upon learning he’s the Falcon, is like “So you kind of saved my life.”

And Sam just- look, he flew with mechanical wings to rescue people. He raced Captain America. He helped Captain America and Black Widow take down government Nazis. But he still wasn’t prepared for this.

The fact that Steve hasn’t told any Marx Brothers level corny jokes in the MCU is a crime and you know it. I swear to god. That was the brand of humor popular in the thirties and forties. Steve would absolutely say “I once shot a nazi in my pajamas.” And everyone would be like “really?” And he’d totally deadpan be like “yeah, how he got in my pajamas I’ll never know.” And while I’m certain that Thor, Clint, and Peter would fuckin love that everyone else would hate it. Natasha might personally kill him I’m not sure.
