It seems impossible to get them to stop gazing at each other if they’re in the same place, 

Steve even watches Thor fly off on several occasions in AOU. I’m only using two as prime examples though

Bonus: Loki shapeshifting into Steve in Thor the Dark World. He seems to know that Thor has a strong connection with his team. But he just had to turn into Steve out of all the avengers. It’s official then, Loki ships Thundershield too, he knows it’s real just like the rest of us haha

"I have lived many ages of men, Steven. Centuries without end. I have seen many great men, and known countless honors. But the greatest honor of this ancient and tired soul has been the privilege of fighting beside you, and calling you my friend."

Because next to Thorki, I also ship Hammerica.

Like seriously, two hot blond hunks together? If that doesn't wet your nether regions, you need some serious sex counseling.

THIS IS A CALL TO ARMS, TUMBLR.

So yeah, I kind of want to follow a Tumblr RP blog where Steve Rogers basically gives his thoughts, comments, and opinions on trying out every suggestion written on his little notebook featured on "Captain America: The Winter Soldier". Like cute and totally Steve-ish first-person POV drabbles on what he thinks about Thai food and the music of Marvin Gaye and whatnot. And the ask box needs to be open so that Steve Rogers can have more suggestions from his followers and he'll come back and report on his assessments about the suggestions that people from Tumblr have given him. Oh, just personal headcanon things Steve should try like... "Have a threesome with Tony and Bucky" or "Hipsters for a day with Natasha" or "Steve learning to speak in languages other than French". Does this Tumblr blog already exist, y'all? If so, kindly please link me to it so I can follow it. If not, someone who really is good with RP-ing Steve Rogers better get to it ASAP! Thanks and God bless you all! <3 P.S. I ship the following below so if you hardcore ship them too, please reblog/like so that I may follow your blog and get some glorious manna from heaven on my dash. Please and thank you! Brent's Armada of Ships include (but are not limited to)... The SS Stony (Tony Stark/Steve Rogers · Iron Man/Captain America) The SS Stucky (Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes · Captain America/Winter Soldier) The SS Thorki (Thor Odinson/Loki Laufeyson · Thor/Loki) The SS Thundershield (Thor Odinson/Steve Rogers · Thor/Captain America) The SS Science Bros (Tony Stark/Bruce Banner · Iron Man/Incredible Hulk) The SS Cherik (Charles Xavier/Erik Lehnsherr · Professor X/Magneto) The SS World's Finest (Bruce Wayne/Clark Kent · Batman/Superman) The SS Hiddlesworth (Chris Hemsworth/Tom Hiddleston) The SS McStewart (Sir Ian McKellen/Sir Patrick Stewart) The SS Grocket (Rocket Raccoon/Groot)

Does grand romantic gestures

Thor has brought Steve to Asgard several times and taken him on private tours in the majestic city and around the beautiful countryside. But back on Midgard, it is Steve who is enthusiastic on taking Thor all over the United States and showing him the best sights and things to do.

Throws shade the best

Steve. He is not the hot dumb throwback blond guy that Tony sometimes teases him.

Secretly loves to read fan fiction and look at fan art about themselves

Thor. Although it isn’t so much a secret but more along the lines of boasting about it by brandishing his Starkpad open to so many pages of NSFW content between him and Steve to the rest of his mortified and amused teammates. It doesn’t help that Natasha is such a shameless enabler of Thor’s interest in fan fiction and art of him and Steve.

Is likely to be sucked in a Wikipedia black hole for hours

Thor. Whenever he’s not doing the nasty with Steve, he happily spends his time reading up on any and all Midgardian topics on Wikipedia and often talks about the new information he has discovered to his teammates.

Hates to eat vegetables

Thor. Carnivorous by default, Steve is perhaps the only other person aside from Frigga who is able to persuade Thor to eat his vegetables. Of course, Thor can never refuse Steve whenever he talks in his Captain America voice.

Is the most active on social media

Steve. Because he’s the most up-to-speed on Midgardian tech, he’s sort of Thor’s guide on how to use apps like Twitter or Instagram. Steve’s social media accounts are full of pictures of him and Thor in various states of heavily muscled undress that never fails to gain a lot of shares, likes, comments, retweets, reblogs, and whatnot.

Rides shotgun during group road trips

Thor. And he is not above playing the “I am a Prince of Asgard” card whenever someone else in the team challenges him to the front seat, unless of course if it’s Steve.

Belongs in which Hogwarts house

Pottermore has officially sorted Captain America and the God of Thunder in Gryffindor, because where else would you sort two hot and courageous blond superheroes? When the Harry Potter fandom discovers this information, the Avengers Tower is besieged with so many Gryffindor-themed paraphernalia. Thor happily poses for a photo wrapped in an oversized red-and-gold knit scarf and a replica of Luna Lovegood’s lion headdress while wielding Mjolnir and Steve uploads it to his Twitter thanking all the Gryffindors for their support.

Belongs in which District of Panem

Having been exposed to the books and movies under recommendation by Natasha, Thor declares without shame that he would come from the Capitol but does not approve of their barbaric oppression against the other Districts. Steve smiles and says he doesn’t mind Thor being from the Capitol and thinks he’d fit really well in District 7.

Insists on sleeping with the nightlight on

Steve. Thor doesn’t mind because sometimes he can conjure bright and tiny sparks of electricity from Mjolnir to help Steve sleep through the night.

Gets the most phone numbers when they go out to a bar/club

Both of them always end up in a draw because they get plenty of equal attention—I mean, come on, they’re both two hot blond guys together—whenever they go out for a night out in the city.

Is likely to film a really hot sex tape of them fucking and upload it on Pornhub

Steve. Tony’s always been ragging on him about he’s so uptight and what better way to prove Iron Man wrong than by making a sex tape with his ridiculously jacked and well-endowed Asgardian boyfriend and then uploading it to a top porn site? Needless to say, Tony has never teased Steve ever again after Steve and Thor’s sex video went hella viral and basically broke the internet several times over.

Can quote the most lines of dialogue verbatim while watching Mean Girls

Steve. Because Thor still has a LONG way to go before he can accurately quote from Mean Girls.

Loves to binge-watch trashy reality TV shows

Thor. He has a particular fondness for dating shows like The Bachelor and gets a kick out of watching the reality show lineup of Bravo.

Cries the hardest when they see Studio Ghibli movies, especially Grave Of The Fireflies

Thor. He just loses it when he finds out Setsuko dies and then Seita passes away not long after her younger sister. He ends up crying in Steve’s arms for a good three hours before he regains his composure.

Always wins at Cards Against Humanity during group game night

Steve. It amazes Tony how someone so clean-cut like Captain America can come up with the craziest and fucked-up answers from his selection of white cards.

Makes the worst faces when they take wacky selfies

Thor. The ones where he puts his long and glorious blond hair in a massive man bun while contorting his bearded face into funny expressions is Steve’s favorites, even more than the NSFW nudes of his boyfriend.

Haggles for the lowest price and wins the best bargains when they shop at flea markets

Steve. Because he gets a kick out of seeing Thor light up with joy when he finds something he likes and he realizes he can get it for a really small sum.

Can successfully eat something so putrid like hakarl (dead fermented shark) and not throw up their guts afterwards

Thor. Because he’s a Norse god and he never backs down from challenging Midgardian foods.

Makes the best party playlists during group house parties

Thor. He has discovered the incredible powers of industrial-strength EDM and parties at the Avengers Tower has forever changed. Footage that Clint took of Natasha, Pepper, and Maria dancing like crazy to “Sweet Nothing” by Calvin Harris has gone viral and Thor accepts it when Natasha drop-kicks him during their sparring session a few days later.

Is likely to be apprehended by The Beygency because they don’t like Beyonce that much

Steve. Although it is already given that The Beygency will give Steve a permanent free pass because obvs, he’s Captain fucking America and if he thinks the Queen Bey isn’t all that hot, then the world just simply has to fucking deal.

Gets the most notes whenever they post something like shirtless selfies or very NSFW photos of themselves on Tumblr

Both of them, seeing as Thor and Steve manage their joint account. They even gamely answer questions from their ask box when they can.

Can successfully tie a cherry stem with their tongue which proves they are the best kisser

Steve. Thor is duly impressed and is rewarded with the best rim job of his life.

Is likely to create an actual Fight Club a la Tyler Durden

Thor. Because he loves any excuse to fight, especially if it’s shirtless.

Always wins the most awards show predictions and makes mad bank from the losers in the group

To everyone’s astonishment, it’s Thor. Apparently, Thor has dabbled in gambling back in Asgard and has always been lucky. He uses the winnings to buy everyone really nice presents.

Insists on having a couples’ orgy session with the World’s Finest, Clark Kent and Bruce Wayne a.k.a. Superman and Batman

Steve. He has admitted to Thor on having a huge crush on Superman and Thor goes out of his way to woo and convince the World’s Finest to join their bed. Suffice to say, a hot pair of blonds and brunets all tangled up together in bed never looked so good.

Sees what colors on The Dress when it pops up on their Tumblr dash

Thor sees white and gold. Steve sees blue and black. It becomes apparent that debating the colors of a dress is enough of a trigger to activate Thor in his Berserker mode. Were it not for the intervention of Bruce in his Hulk form, shit would have gone way too real for everyone to deal with.

since it's halloween season, how about steve and thor in a black swan!au where steve is the perfectionist dancer and thor is the seductive newcomer in the dance company. they're staging a genderbent version of swan lake where steve wins the dual role of the swan king/black swan and thor is his understudy. just like in the film, steve is both wary and entranced by thor's charm and allure and isn't quite sure whether those vividly intense sexual encounters with the long-haired blond beefcake actually happened or not because his mental situation is cracking under the intense pressure of living up to the role he was bestowed.

Oooooh, I love this idea so much!! I'd definitely see this genderbent swan lake taking a lot of cues from Matthew Bourne's production, both in its exploration of mental instability and sexual repression (apt for the subject matter) and the costuming, which... c'mon 👀👀👀

Perfect.

Steve can't remember a time when the word didn't loom over his every choice and action. Ever since his mother died and he got into dance schools on scholarships, he's been constantly aware of the pressure to be better, more dedicated, more self-critical than any of his fellow dancers. His practices take up so much time that he doesn't really have time for friends, and certainly not dating, but a bit of loneliness is a small price to pay for perfecting his craft. And when the word gets out about the new Swan Lake production with male swans, Steve sees it as a golden opportunity to show he's ready step up into the bigger roles. He knows he's perfect for it.

The thing is, the company's director, Helmut Zemo, doesn't much care for perfect. Or, at least, Steve's kind of perfect; a fine White Swan, certainly, but too stiff and caught up in the technical to play the Black Swan. No, Zemo seems much more interested in having their newcomer dancer take the lead role. Thor isn't quite on par with Steve's skill level, but he's got a great flair for performance, and positively oozes charisma and sensuality, always setting the women tittering with his lazy grin and good looks. But Zemo acknowledges Steve’s seniority in the company, and is willing to let things play out and see who's more suitable.

So, they end up spending a lot of time rehearsing the steps together in the run up to casting. And Thor seems like a nice guy, really, but Steve can't help but feel on edge around him, always catching those blue eyes flicking away from him. Zemo's observations don't help matters, always pointing out little details in Thor's dancing and mentioning how Steve could stand to be a little less uptight and inhibited in his performances. It could all just be in his head, but as the pressure mounts in the run up to auditions, Steve's paranoia starts escalating.

The hallucinations start small. Little things he can just dismiss as a trick of the light or his exhaustion after hours in the studio. But one evening, he and Thor have both stayed late to practice, the last ones in the studio by the time they’re wrapping up. Steve almost hates to admit it, but Thor’s abilities are impressive in their own right. It’s going to be a close call, he thinks to himself uneasily as he wanders over to the mirror to grab his water bottle from where he’d left his bag against the mirrored wall.

Suddenly he’s being pressed right up against the mirror, the breath caught in his throat as a strong hand wraps around it, the other one slipping down the front of his shorts to stroke his cock. Thor’s voice is right in his ear, hot and wet and harsh, whispering that Steve’s frigid little act can’t hide what a slut he is. How Thor knows he’d spread his legs in a heartbeat for him, for Zemo, for the entire male half of the company, just to get the part. And all the while, he grinds against Steve’s ass, the thin layers of fabric between them doing little to hide just how hard he is. Steve’s heart pounds wild, and he’s barely able to suppress a whimper of pure want. But when he finally tears his eyes from his own reflection and gets a glimpse over his shoulder, it’s not Thor’s face he sees, but his own, his lips curled in a sneer with blood red eyes.

And then, just as suddenly as it started, it stops. There’s a rush of cool air at Steve’s back, and when he whirls around, Thor’s still doing his cooldown stretches at the opposite end of the studio. A ringing in his ears as he finds the feeling in his feet again, Steve races back to the locker rooms, ignoring Thor’s concerned calls after him as he grabs his stuff and makes it back home in record time. Only when the door to his apartment is safely shut behind him does he let everything comes crashing down, slowly sliding down the wall to clutch at his knees. Trembling from head to toe as he tries to untangle the dark mix of fear and lust he’d felt in that moment, more intense and exhilarating than anything he’s ever experienced.

The next day’s the last before casting, and Steve’s an utter wreck after a sleepless night. Thor, however, seems fresh as a daisy and dances to as much praise as ever. Watching him smile bashfully as Zemo compliments him, Steve’s resentment and stress feels like it’s going to boil over any moment. Last night’s... whatever it was rises in his mind again, and all he can think of as he goes through the Black Swan steps again is this intense rush of conflicting desires; to fuck Thor, to beat the shit out of him, to punch the mirror where he’d seen his own face sneering at him, letting the emotions fill his steps. He feels Zemo’s stare on the back of his head - let him. What Steve wouldn’t give for the chance to break his nose, to shut him up while Steve’s just trying to be perfect. When he finally stops, dripping with sweat and heaving for breath, it takes him a moment to realise everyone’s staring at him. Thor most of all, an inscrutable look in his eyes.

The casting sheets go up the next day. Steve’s got the role of the Swan King and the Black Swan, with Thor to be his understudy. He feels Thor clapping him on the shoulder, a wide grin on his face as he congratulates him. But looking at his name on the sheet, the joy Steve expected doesn’t come. At least, only a faint glimmer of it does, enough for him to stretch his lips into a convincing smile. But all that fills the numbness inside him is the knowledge that he needs to be perfect, now more than ever, if he wants to live up to this opportunity.

If Steve practised hard before the casting, it’s nothing compared to the taskmaster he becomes afterwards. The first to arrive at the studio in the morning and the last to leave at night, Steve dances and practices until his feet are raw with blisters, binding them up mercilessly to keep going. There are constant dark shadows under his eyes from the nights he spends wide awake and worrying over what he needs to work on, and he shuns nearly all company to try and keep his focus from wandering.

Thor practices alongside him at times, sometimes convincing him to go out for drinks and relax once they’re done. But even as he smiles and laughs at all the right moments, Steve remains tense, convinced that Thor’s just watching, waiting for an opportunity to prove him unfit to dance and take his place. Zemo watches him too, seemingly only satisfied with the Black Swan sections whenever Steve gives in and lets the voices in the back of his head babble and shout over one another. Only when he draws from that roiling black pit of emotions he’d dipped into during that last practise does Steve really feel anywhere close to getting it right, like he’s splitting apart into two personalities trapped in the one mind.

The blackouts and hallucinations only get worse as the stress keeps bearing down. Ever more elaborate and lewd scenarios flash through his mind whenever he’s around Thor; he chokes on Thor’s cock in the locker rooms, lets those strong fingers tease his zipper open and his cock to aching hardness in the shadow of the bus stop, always wavering back and forth with those flashes of Steve’s cruel double. And then the moment vanishes without a hint that those encounters had actually happened. 

One night after drinks, Steve would swear on his life that they'd gone back to his apartment, Thor too impatient to wait for privacy as he'd bent Steve over the stairwell bannister, ripped his pants down and fucked him 'til he'd filled the stairwell with his screams, before dragging him inside to ravish him until he passed out. Only to wake up cold, naked and alone on his living room floor the next morning, with Thor insisting at practice that they parted ways at the bar the previous night. Steve manages to brush off Thor’s confusion and concern with a laugh about having drunk too much, but inside, his terror grows as his grip on reality slowly but steadily unravels.

Finally, the opening night comes. Steve’s nerves are frayed worse than ever by now, but with all eyes on him as he takes the stage, a calming sense of purpose comes over him; he knows he’s perfect for this. At first, it all goes great - the White Swan’s always been easy for him. But he gets careless and slips up at a crucial moment, the audience gasping audibly as he fumbles a turn and hits the floor. Burning scarlet under his pale makeup, Steve scrambles back to his feet and resumes the routine, but his stomach turns to ice when he catches sight of Zemo in the wings, his eyes grim and unsurprised. This isn’t good.

At the interval, Steve trails back to his dressing room, railing at himself and resolving to do better - only to find Thor in his chair, putting the finishing touches to his Black Swan makeup. Zemo wants him to go on for the third act and dance the remainder of the show. His words are kindly, sympathetic, reassuring, but there’s a funny roaring in Steve’s ears that turns them dismissive, contemptuous. And once again, Thor’s features shift until it’s like Steve’s looking at his own distorted reflection, its red eyes gleaming with malice as it laughs in derision at his weakness.

Something in him finally cracks, and the next thing he knows, he’s screaming at Thor that he’s dancing the full show, flying at him with fists and nails. But Thor’s no pushover, the two of them crashing around the room as they struggle. At some point, something shatters just before they hit the floor, a bright glint hitting Steve’s eye as struggles on top. And before he knows it, there’s a wickedly long shard of glass from the broken mirror in his hand, cutting into his palm as he clutches it like a knife. Something in his chest roars with approval at the fear that fills Thor’s eyes, his double’s eyes, red to match the blood dripping on his face from Steve’s hand. Everything from the past few months comes to a boiling point and Steve just wants it to end, he wants the double out of his life, he wants it dead so he can just dance and be perfect like he’s always wanted and he plunges the glass shard with a wild scream and-

The double’s gone. That’s all that matters to Steve, exquisite relief washing through him as his mind finally stills. He feels lighter than air and brimming with confidence again, ready to get back out there and dance the Black Swan with no troubles. Even with the pain blooming bright and hot in his gut. It seems a distant thing, just like the arms holding him tight, the voice screaming hoarsely for help. All that matters is how at one he finally feels with himself, the thought enough to send tears of happiness spilling down his cheeks just before he lets the exhaustion of the past few weeks finally catch up, ignoring Thor’s frantic voice as the warm darkness envelops him...

Two years later, those dark few months and the infamous opening night still haunt Steve. But after many months of therapy and rehabilitation and tears, he’s slowly rebuilding. Learning to value himself beyond his abilities, beyond the impossibly high standards he’d been setting himself all those years, to dismantle his deep-rooted sexual repression. It’s a long, slow road with many setbacks, but he’s making progress and building new relationships, even moving to a new apartment that he actually tries to decorate and personalise, striving to make the most of a fresh start.

At first, he doubted he’d ever be able to dance again after his breakdown - his body and mind recovered in time, yes, but people had very long memories - but when the Natasha Romanoff reached out to him expressing her company’s interest in taking him on, he’d jumped at the opportunity. It’s not quite top billing roles yet, but he’s willing to work and wait for it. And for the first time in years, he finds happiness and enjoyment in dancing the simplest steps, the new company much more relaxed and lowkey in their operations than what he’d previously been used to. Of course, having Thor practising alongside him helps, always ready with a gentle smile and a warm, reassuring squeeze of his hand when he needs it.

It still boggles Steve’s mind that Thor stuck around after all was said and done. Waking in the hospital to Thor’s pale, pinched face at his bedside had felt like another one of his hallucinations, his thoughts fuzzy and groggy with the anaesthesia. He’d assumed the first few visits were out of pity or morbid fascination. But Thor just kept coming back, on the good days and bad, visiting him and helping out at his new apartment when he was released from the hospital. He’d never even considered pressing charges against Steve, only concerned with making sure he was looked after. In the months that followed, Steve had found himself getting to know Thor a second time, free from all the poisoned thoughts he’d previously let fester in his mind. And he’d liked what he’d discovered about his new, first friend.

It took a long while for them to get together. Thor eventually, cautiously, confessed that all those times he’d watched Steve were because he’d been so entranced by his beauty and skill, trying to get up the nerve to ask out the star dancer he’d so idolised. For a time, they agreed to stay friends; between the shadow of Steve’s trauma, and how dependent he’d been on Thor during his recovery, neither of them felt comfortable stepping into that territory just yet.

But as the months pass and Steve reflects on his past obsession, it becomes evident to him that his new growing feelings for Thor are a separate thing, born out of real friendship and affection for the other man without any sense of obligation. And when he plucks up his courage on one of their movie nights and takes Thor’s hand to press a soft kiss to his lips, the slow melt of Thor’s eyes from guarded caution to unbridled joy fills Steve with more warmth than any role ever could.

It’s not perfect, and it’s probably never going to be, with plenty of days where he backslides and just wants to shut everyone out. But waking up to Thor every morning, dancing next to him and feeling those hands around his waist to help keep him safe and secure, just makes it all the more precious to Steve.
