sashayed:

welI i think you do already know the answer, my sweet opossum, but to confirm: I LOVE JEWISH BUCKY!!!!! I LOVE JEWISH BUCKY. In fact, now that I have read Jewish Bucky, it seems so obvious and correct that I am shocked not to have assumed it before. 

I hope Bucky’s bubbe looked just like my great-great-great-whatever and taught Bucky to swear in Yiddish with such vivid, paint-peeling eloquence that old guys beating him at chess would take their hats off in laughing respect. I hope he taught Steve to do that too. I hope the first thing Bucky told his ma about Steve was that the kid was a twig but damn he had chutzpah and Bucky’s ma gave him a clip on the ear for swearing. I hope Bucky associates candlelight with home, with the gleam of it in his ma’s pinned-back hair, her blue Friday night dress. I hope Bucky only eats Hebrew National hot dogs but it’s because they TASTE better, Steve, come on. (I’m assuming they sold Hebrew National at Ebbetts Field since the owners were Brooklynites but if they didn’t he probably did what he had to – you can’t just NOT EAT HOT DOGS at a baseball game – then put aside some time on Yom Kippur to apologize for eating treif and, you know, probably eating it again in the future tbh.) I hope he brought his ma’s matzoh ball soup over when Steve was sick and MAYBE Mrs. Barnes even gave Sarah Rogers the recipe because it’s literally the best thing when you’re sick and come on, they’re mishpocheh. I hope he tells the longest and funniest ritual grandpa jokes. I HOPE SOMEDAY BUCKY GETS TO HAVE A NICE HOME, JUST A DECENT APARTMENT WITH A HAND-PAINTED MEZUZAH BY THE DOOR BC YOU KNOW HE DIDN’T HAVE A CHANCE TO PUT ONE UP IN BUCHAREST!!! HE KNEW HE WOULDN’T BE THERE FOR LONG, HE HASN’T LIVED ANYWHERE PERMANENT SINCE HE WAS A KID, POOR BUCKY, WHERE DID THESE FEELINGS COME FROM I WANT THEM TO STOP!!!!! 

Anyway so yes, obviously I also love thinking about everyone at seder also, especially because think how nice it would be for Wanda!!!! (Plus is there any reason for Natasha not to also be Jewish? There isn’t? Great, cool, Natasha is Jewish now.) (Ant-Man is probably fake Jewish, Jew….ish, half on his dad’s side, like me.) Please imagine that Bucky has forgotten how long it takes to get to the FOOD PARTS of seder and like, the ritual is important, he’s not objecting to that, it’s just that he’s a supersoldier now and he’s HUNGRY. but it’s fine, he’s just getting increasingly cranky and reading really fast. Please feel free also to imagine Sam and Bucky, fully grown adult men, getting INCREDIBLY hostile and competitive about finding the Afikomen that Steve hid slightly too well
