Actor Wyatt Russell receiving death threats due to his portrayal of John Walker Captain America.
This is disgusting. Sending death threats to any actor in any circumstance is a horrific, pathetic, ridiculous way to express hatred. Wyatt's character is meant to cause apprehension and distain - everyone is aware that Steve Rogers will have no worthy replacement - that's the point.
If you hate the character, then good, Wyatt is doing his job! He would have no doubt gone into the role knowing that he would be playing a hated character - what he would not have expected however, are the swarms of absolute crybabies claiming their lives are ruined by a fictional story not conforming to their every whim.
With characters that are deliberately designed to be hated, there is often an awareness between the content creators, the actors, and their audience - often the actor of such a reviled character will relish in the hatred, and be adored by fans for not only managing to successfully strike a nerve (which again, is the point), but also because they enjoy the deliberate conflict caused.
This is a human being with human feelings. You can hate the character for all the right reasons (and for all the wrong reasons if needs be too), but that shouldn't transfer across to the actor. If the actor is doing a bad job of something, you can express your disapproval, but when the actor is meant to be playing someone you want to punch in the face, then newsflash, he isn't doing a bad job is he?
Captain America is my favourite hero in the MCU. I was sad to see him go, but I recognise it was a needed exit. It was perfect and cathartic and I'm happy with his ending. In Falcon and the Winter Soldier, John Walker is designed be a mockery of the original Cap - someone that will no doubt succumb to evil because *repeat after me* he is not meant to fill Steve's shoes (from a storytelling perspective).
I'm aware of the size of my following on this platform, and I can't let something like this go by without mentioning it. If you send death threats to anyone, please unfollow me and don't come back. Go to anger management therapy. Learn to detach real life from fiction. Apply common sense prior to taking irrational action. And most importantly, enjoy the show!
If you're sending death threats, you don't deserve to watch. Stop acting like an emperor at a colosseum with your thumb down and get a grip. I'm also aware that he isn't the first victim of such abhorrent behaviour, and sadly this will no doubt be the last instance too.

Prompt: ‘Be safe, if you can be’
Summary: After Peggy rejects Steve, he finds company in you, a British Brigadier who is more than meets the eye.
Pairing: Steve x Female Reader (with surname. First name is your own)
Warnings: Angst (Possible proof reading errors)
_______
Striking out with Peggy was the worst thing that had happened to Steve.
One stupid misunderstanding and she’d frozen him out. He was just staring at the map on the wall with a sense of melancholy, not even fully appreciating that he’d got Bucky back.
“That’s a sour face,” came a female voice from his right. “Chewing on a wasp?”
He turned around to see you, in a different kind of uniform, wearing pants and a Brigadier’s sash. Had you got those on by mistake or were all girls adept at kicking ass like Peggy over in Britain?
“Sorry?”
“You look a little glum,” you smile kindly. “Anything I can help with?”
“No, no I’m good. Thank you,” he blinks in bewilderment. “Uh…sorry if this is rude but…umm….”
“It’s the threads, isn’t it?” you look down and laugh. “Confused more than my fair share of Yanks lately with it. I was in the women’s auxiliary engineering corps but there was a bit of an accident you see.”

“Hey,” you were breathless with wild eyes and warm cheeks as you ran up to the man standing at the edge of the ice rink, casually watching the skaters without partaking. He was startled as he almost jumped out of his skin at the touch of your hand on his shoulder. Wide brown eyes met your eyes as you shook your head to keep him from panicking, “what’s your name?”
“F-Frankie…?” he replied meekly, almost as if he was questioning his very existence.
“Hi Frankie - can you pretend to be my boyfriend for like 10 seconds?” Frankie’s eyes widened as a blush - this one not just from the wind chill - colored his cheeks as he stared back in confusion, “my friends are coming, totally didn’t know they were coming here and I bailed on them tonight because I said I had a date with my boyfriend. If they see me here alone, they’ll know I lied and they’ll never let me live it down. So, just like…can you…kiss me?”
“What?” his mouth opened in surprise as he studied with what could only be described as incredulous wonder, “you want me to kiss you?”
“Yes,” you hissed as you looked around, spotting your friends coming up to the rink from the corner of your eye, “I’m so sorry, I’ll do whatever you want, but if you’re okay with just kiss me now for a moment, or tell me to run because my friends are about five seconds away from figuring out I’m a huge liar.”
Before you could say or do anything else, this man you’d known for about a minute, gently took your face in his hands, before pressing his lips to yours. You were so taken aback, that at first you didn’t know how to respond, but you quickly reacted, gently kissing him back, and practically melting into his touch.
Oh. Oh.

“You know, you don’t look like Evan.”
You were accompanying your parents to help your brother move into his dorm when you met his roommate, Max, all handsome and charming as you held your hand out for him to shake with a polite, slightly infatuated smile that slowly fell. Rather than shaking your offered hand, he was looking you over wolfishly.
“I’m adopted,” you mumbled, letting your hand fall as you wrapped your arms around yourself, looking around the room. “You want me to help you unpack, Ev?”
“Yeah, sure.” Evan mostly sat on his bare mattress, looking through a box of cards he collected, which was the only box he really brought up as you and your parents did the rest.

This hasn't been the first time Din has returned with more wounds than you could count. With each lucky bounty that took less than one day stacked up the slow amount of karma waiting for Din the next time. And here you were, hovering over the Mandalorian as he bled out.
"Hey! Just keep your eyes open. Squeeze my hand."
You shout, one hand busily tearing the beskar from his torso as the other was faintly gripped in his bloody leather hand.
"C-Cyare."
You press a small kiss against the helmet, pulling out antiseptic wipes to clean the heavy gashes. You grimaced at his moan of pain, his grip becoming unbearable as you cleaned sand and other bits from the nasty wounds.
"Don't speak. Just... stay with me Din." He began to wrestle against you.
"Kriffing stop moving!" Din stills, his grasp a butterfly's touch on your hand as you pull it back. You needed both hands to administer the bacta shots. Another grunt followed the injection of the syringe, and you sighed in relief as you slowly watched the major wounds close together. Disposing of several wipes and bloodied rags, you turn back to face Din, who's out cold on the floor.
"What would you do without me." You muttered before completely striping him of his armour and weapons. It was a terrible idea to drag him up the ramp of the Razor Crest when he had stumbled outside, and you doubted you could do it again.
With what little strength you had, you pressed him against a makeshift bed. Soft blankets and pillows surrounded him as you tucked him in. He would need all his energy back once he woke up, no doubt wanting to jump straight back to Nevarro to collect the credits.
You sat by his side, smiling softly as you grasped his hand. At least he had come back to you in one piece. He was lucky that he had made it to the Crest, or you would've had no idea where he was.
A soft mumble escaped the modulator as Din slowly sat up, his body swaying from the sudden motion.
"Hey. Take it easy." You mutter, letting him lean his weight against your smaller form.
"How you feelin?" You ask, eyes shining with worry as Din blankly stared at you, his helmet tilting further to the side the longer he stared.
"You look fam-familiar." He slurred, wrapping his arm around your waist.
"Mhm. I am your only other crewmate. Been together for around a year." There was a moment of silence before his usually stoic and sarcastic voice had shifted to something akin to a love sick puppy.
"You look so pr-pretty mesh'la." You lay him back down with ease, squeezing his hand that was clutched to your side as you laid it down beside him.
"Is that the bacta talkin to me Din?" You tease, watching as he struggles to take off his helmet. With gentle hands, you release the Mandalorian from his beskar prison. His eyes were hazy as he stared off into the distance before looking back at you.
"You should get some rest. Sleep here. I'll be right beside you." He shoves you away with what little strength he had left in his muscles, but even wounded and delirious, he was still strong enough to push you back.
"S-Stop. I have a riduuuur." He drew out the foreign word, and you peck another kiss to his cheek. His face scrunched up as he pouted, his eyes glistening.
"I won't cheat on my riduur. Even if you look as pretty as them." A wide grin splashes over your face as you brush his messy hair out of his face.
"You think I'm pretty?" Din groans, trying to roll onto his side so he didn't have to look at you. But after the fourth attempt he huffed before flopping down on the soft blankets.
"The-The prettiest." Din nodded, his eyes roaming the features of your face as it came in and out of focus.
"Come on Din, go back to sleep." It took a few moments for the words to register in his brain before he was moaning in protest.
"Got to see my cyar'ika." His protests were firm as you sighed.
"Fine. I'll get them. Wait here." He diligently nodded his head as you disappeared from view. You chuckle to yourself. Din had always been so shy to flirt with you, but here he was, diligently keeping his promise to be with you forever. You exit the weapon lockers and smile happily as Din's face morphs into a goofy smile.
"Verd'ika!" He exclaimed, seeming to gain his strength in the short period of time you had pretended to get yourself. You coo at him as he embraces you in a clumsy hug.
"I've missed you. You so... so good to me." Din began to slowly tear up, and you gently rubbed his back as he began to sob into your shoulder. Despite being vulnerable and high as an X-Wing in the clouds, he still had a possessive grip.
"Mi-Missed you. Haven't seen you in y-years!" His words were choked and lazily pronounced.
"Love you too Din. Glad you came back to me." Din's cries began to recede as he pressed harsh kisses against the side of your neck.
"Din!" You scold, pushing him back. He gives you the sweetest puppy eyes, chocolate brown swirling at you.
"Cyare..." You roll your eyes, helping the warrior to his feet.
"You can get all the lovin' once you get cleaned up and back to our bunk." His weight wasn't as harsh in the beginning, and you were able to help him stumble his way over towards the refresher attached to the shared bunk.
Deeply inhaling the soap bar, Din gives you the softest smile.
"Aloan roses." He identifies, and you give him a small pat on the back in praise. "Come on you tin head. Let's get you cleaned up." He didn't hesitate to strip down, bare as the day he was born. Din gave you a cocky smile,
"Like what you see?" "Yeah I do. But first get clean. So I can admire you better than under all those layers of sand."
It was a hassel getting him cleaned up. He was distracting and happily pressing your body into the stream of warm water, effectively soaking you to the bone. But you couldn't be too mad. His delighted expression was too sweet for you to be mad.
Finally getting the two of you in dry clothing, you snuggled up besides Din as he pressed against you.
"Love you mesh'la." You giggle, gently brushing your finger against the curve of his jaw.
"Love you too Din."
There was another moment of silence before... "You wanna hear a joke." You wack him on his side. He had done this before. When the two of you were crunched on time to rest before bounding straight into another fight. And it had both annoyed you and sent you into a fit of chuckles when he tried to break the ice. It was endearing how he had tried to cheer you up that night. You were really grumpy, and in your defense Din drank the rest of the caf that morning.
"Go to sleep Din." There was a huff of protest before he pressed his face against the smooth skin of your neck and inhaled.
Din smiled to himself as he fell asleep. You smelled like home. His home.
