It makes sense to me that as a soldier you have to prioritize the practical stuff first but then rather than tackle the emotional stuff, that all gets sidelined because technically on a day to day basis, you're fine.
See, this is why I don't understand people saying that Cap is a boring character. He's a good guy, yes, but he has levels just like any other character, even if it isn't necessarily as much of a struggle for him to do the 'right' thing. He's no less complex for not being anti-hero.
When I lived with a cat, she used to build herself little forts with balls of yarn my roommate had lying around. You look up and she's asleep, circled by a ring of yarn balls.
The very first day we brought Ascii home, the firs thing she did was steal Mum's sock wool from her knitting basket, and put it in her kennel. The previous owner said 'she collects things', and we didn't know what that meant, but she literally just picks things up and takes them somewhere else. One day, I left the door to the my room open, and while I was having a bath, she took every stuffed animal and put it in a pile in the living room. She didn't chew or destroy them, she just collected them. I love Scotties, they are so freakin' weird.
He was so determined and noble. He was probably getting people who liked him to be better people way before he became big by just being himself.
I totally agree with this. Steve Rogers was awesome before he became Captain America. As a person who has dealt with a lot of chronic illness, I find his determination very endearing.
