There was always this kind of air of melancholy around Steve—hard to see, sometimes, because Steve smiled so much and didn’t really ever talk about being sad. When he did it was in such a frank and goddamn sympathetic manner—as though he was just amused by what seemed to be his lot in life, and you were the one deserving of kindness and his understanding. By the time he was done, you hardly even remembered that Steve just had it so fucking hard, and when you did, you wanted to kick yourself because Steve wanted you to forget, and Steve got what he wanted all the damn time, except that he also never did.

With Tony, surrender always felt like defeat.With Steve, surrender felt like grace.

“I have bad experiences with people who hide their liquor around the house,” said Bruce.“That isn’t going to work on me again.” In direct opposition to his words, Tony poured the rest of the liquid over the side of the balustrade.

Lots of different kinds of genius are on display here as the Avengers and all their friends and some of their family work to break the time loop Steve has fallen into. Is patience a type of genius? Because Steve has it. I'm in awe of this story, of its scope and science, of the characters and their relationships. It's inventive and detailed and contains both the banal repetition and existential horror of having to live the same day over and over.
