The Bar Scene

consulting–assassin:

okay okay, I know every Stucky shipper is familiar with this scene, but I’ve decided to investigate in furthur detail.

So the singing stops as Peggy walks in, looking as gorgeous as ever, eyes only for Steve

Bucky’s immediate reaction is a clenched jaw

and a balled fist.

I’m not saying he’s jealous or anything but of course he’s fucking jealous.

At first glance, people may think that Bucky is jealous that Peggy isn’t paying attention to him, but I don’t think so.

Peggy proceeds to talk to Steve and

need I say any more about this?

At the end of the scene, Bucky makes a “joke” which I think was meant to disguise what he was really feeling. When Steve turns away, he makes this face:

And to finish up, I’d like to talk about the song that was playing right before Peggy walked in: “There is a Tavern in the Town” (thanks to brxkenbucky​ I was able to look into this). Now I know it’s difficult to hear the song in the scene, but if you look up the lyrics you’ll see that some of them are:

“He left me for a damsel dark, damsel dark // each Friday night they used to spark, used to spark // and now my love who once was true to me // takes this dark damsel on his knee”

Very fitting, right? And remember that songs played in movies are chosen specifically to suit the scene. Everything is intentional, just like every reaction and facial expression.

I’m just going to leave this here, take from it what you will.
