That moment when you con your oldest child into watching The Wizard of Oz because of talking about it recently re: 
scenario stuff and it can be considered as “research”, lol
Ohhhh starting a wizard of oz AU?
Efficiency 
thewrittenfae haha in talking about when it came out being like RIGHT BEFORE the start of WW2 it was like...yeah this is probably one of the last films Bucky probably watched in pre-war effort times lol
expectedtheworld this is how it worked when he was REALLY into Spider-Man 🤣
But now I’m all, Wizard of Oz AU tho
WIZARD OF OZ AU??
Ohhhhh! Hahahahah but I’m glad my confusion totally helped inspire the hmmm thoughts! Mwahahahaha
thewrittenfae it works! Now I’m like damn, I wonder who else I could cast in that since the obvious was Bucky = Tin Man
🤔 that is totally a good question. My brain says Bruce as the lion - hear me out - because he’s afraid of his hulk side in the beginning so the journey to courage is is journey to being okay with that side of himself?
THIS SAID...the Scarecrow is ALSO an apt one for Bucky because brainless = brainwashing, idk
The scarecrow makes me go ouch for him far. Ore than the tin man.
thewrittenfae the Tin Man thing was mostly me being like LOL, METAL ARM = TIN MAN but...the Scarecrow could really work
he's smart tho! so even brainwashed he's not brainless. heartless killer also goes well with tin man lol
esp taking into account wicked that boq did not want to be nessa's, er, pet but he thought he was doing the right thing bc glinda told him...
notanybunny WHICH IS ALSO WHY I SAID TIN MAN, but then I got all oh hmmm, what about Scarecrow?? But clearly Tin Man was THE SUPERIOR OPTION 😘
1940s bucky does have the swagger of movie fiyero HAHAHA
