do you ever think about how Peggy Carter, the woman, was just expected to help the war effort from home and marry a Nice Lad from a Good Family, but instead she said ‘fuck that shit’ and through her determination and resourcefulness and no lack of spite went on to become a spy whose work changed the tide of the war and the founder of S.H.I.E.L.D.

and how Peggy Carter, the character, was written specifically to be Captain America’s love interest, but instead she said ‘fuck that shit’ and was not only featured in four other movies but also given a one shot and her own show where she got to be the protagonists of her own story

Peggy Carter is such a force to be reckoned with, such a hero in her own right, that it breaks through the narrative into our world

(the show even recognizes this by having Agent Carter beat up a Bad Guy to the tune of Betty Carver on the radio show)

cause i think about that a lot
