Hey guys, so i watched a theory video the other day about steve and natasha’s ending but it wasnt in English so i’m here to translate it for you. And just to make sure no one attacks me (lol), THIS IS JUST A THEORY, you dont have to be salty or rude.
First of all, i believe that the Black Widow movie wont be just about her past. Think about it, if they only wanted to show us her past, they could just give her a Disney+ series and we could watch a Black Widow series just like the Agent Carter where Peggy’s story continued. This movie has to affect the future of the MCU somehow. Plus, why would they wait this long to finally shoot her movie? She’s been in the MCU since Iron Man 2, they had the time to do it but they waited until ‘’alternative universes’’ were a thing in the MCU, until time travel was finally happening.
Now lets take a look at Natasha Romanoff’s character. She’s originally a russian spy who’s been raised and trained by an organization called the ‘’Red Room’’ they made experiments on her, they sterilized her and etc. She was used as a weapon so she’s done some horrible things in her past unwillingly. But then with Clint and Shield’s help she became a true hero, a selfless, caring person, only doing good things, only wanting to help save ppl. And we watched her sacrifice herself and die for her family, for the universe. So it looks like her arc ended there but… did it really?
One of the many things Endgame emphasizes is how Steve is telling everyone to move on but he himself cant do that. And it’s also emphasized that he isnt the only one who cant move on, Natasha cant either. And when the trailers came out and Steve said ‘’But not us’’ we all thought he meant all the avengers but he actually just meant himself and Natasha. We see everyone else somehow moving on with their lives but the only 2 ppl who cant are Steve and Natasha. They even put Natasha’s ballet shoes just for us to see that she cant move on from her past.
In the end, Natasha travelled back in time and died in 2014 and Steve went back to 1940’s and they only showed us him dancing with Peggy and kissing her, and also the old Steve wearing a ring. We didnt see a ring on the 1940 Steve’s finger, did we? Nope.
Let’s move on to Steve’s character. The end of his arc, going back to 1940’s to marry Peggy is what everyone’s been saying. But most of the fans didnt like this ending because it just leaves us with the question ‘’Would Steve really do this? Would he really leave his bestfriend who he’s been figthing to get back for the last few years, going back to Peggy who moved on after he was gone, who married someone else and had children?’’ It wasnt really in Steve’s character. Plus, in the 1940’s there’s already a Steve Rogers who’s under the ice. Would our 2023 Steve just let him stay under the ice for 70 years? Would he be able to have a happy marriage life with Peggy, giving zero fucks about the fact that his bestfriend is in the hands of the Hydra, being treated like a fucking toy? I dont think so… There’s no way.
So we saw Steve taking the stones and the mjolnir back to the past. He has to go back to the exact moment the stones were taken so in Vormir, he has to go back to the exact time Natasha sacrifices herself. Will he just stand there, watch one of the most important ppl to him jump off a cliff? I mean we all know he’ll at least try to save her somehow. I dont believe the Russo’s, i mean who even does? I think he might have saved Natasha and she might be alive in some alternative universe. And sadly the only prove to this is the fact that she didnt get a funeral. Why didnt she? If she didnt sacrifice herself for the soul stone, they wouldnt even be able to collect the stones and win the war. Doesnt she deserve a funeral? Why did one even bother to care??
If you’ve seen the past movies, especially the Winter Soldier, you know how close Steve and Natasha became. We saw them flirt several times, we saw them kiss, we saw them saying they are engaged and getting married bla bla and even tho all of those were just to keep the mission going, Steve seemed pretty STUNNED after she kissed him. We saw throughout the whole movie how Nat has been trying to find Steve a date but Steve always refused. He tried with Sharon but did it really work out? Nope. Nat also tried with Bruce but he pushed her away and it didnt work out either. What did she really want with Bruce? TO ESCAPE. To go somewhere far away. But those never happened. Steve couldnt find someone with shared life experience. And Nat couldnt find someone she could escape with.
In Civil War, Nat agreed with Tony but at the same time she made sure that Steve knew she understood his choice and told him that staying together is more important than how they stay together. She didnt want him to be alone. In Infinity War we saw that they’ve been on the run together with Sam secretly. 5 years later, in endgame we saw that they both were so alone and all they ever wanted was to go back and fix everything, bring everyone back.
So if Steve was able to save Natasha in Vormir when he went back to bring the soul stone back, what might have happened? Nat would ask him if they won and Steve would say yes. But also he’d tell her that Tony died, Thor went away, Clint went back to his family, Hulk never even wanted to fight. So would Nat really wanna go back to 2023? I think she’d join Steve and they would bring the other stones back together. And while doing that, what if they realize they’ve created au’s? So what if Steve remembers that he has a dance he promised so he wants to go back to 1940’s and make that happen? We saw them dance but notice how it wasnt at the Stork Club they promised, but it was in a house? This is an important detail. I think he might have done something else. So whatever year he and Nat went back to, there already was a Steve and Nat there. Steve was under the ice, remember? Here’s what i think happened: Steve and Nat prevented the 1940’s Steve from going under the ice and in that reality they made sure Steve who made that promise to Peggy, kept his promise and married her and lived his life with her and in the ending scene, that’s what we saw. Our Steve and Nat also saved Bucky and prevented him from being Hydra’s toy and they ended Hydra before Hydra could get to Shield. But what does all this have to do with Nat, right?
This is how i think she blends well with this theory: The red room she was raised in was founded in late 1937’s. So what if she stops the Red Room, what if she saves all those little girls’ and her own childhood? That way that reality’s Nat would never become a spy and live another life.
In Age of Ultron Tony, Thor and Steve were shown the future. Tony saw Thanos’ army win and all his friends die, which was one of the alternative outcomes of Endgame. Thor saw Asgard’s end, he saw Asgardians die. Steve saw himself dancing with Peggy. Remember how Peggy said ‘’The war’s over Steve, we can go home’’ I know yall think he was shown the past but it was the future. Wasnt the war over after endgame and didnt he go home? Didnt he have his dance? He was shown the FUTURE as well. But what about Nat? She was shown her past. But unlike others, they showed us Nat, watching herself and those memories from the red room. It was like she was watching it all from someone else’s view. So while everyone was shown the future, why would Nat be shown the past? SHE WAS SHOWN THE FUTURE AS WELL. I dont know if this makes sense at all but Marvel really showed us the future with Tony’s, Steve’s and Thor’s visions. It all happened right? Why wouldnt Nat’s vision happen too? What if the Black Widow movie shows us her past, her memories but also her future? What if she tries to save her childhood?
So what if our Steve and Nat went back to 40’s and prevented all the bad stuff that would ruin their life, created an alternative universe and after everything was solved, they finally got the life they always told eachother to get? Together?
And we all know how Russo’s lie to us all the time and most people arent pleased with Steve’s ending. Plus if the Russo’s intention was to eventually make Steve marry Peggy why would they make him kiss Peggy’s niece in the first place? their mind shocks me sometimes!

When we talk about the enormity of the cosmos, it’s easy to toss out big numbers – but far harder to wrap our minds around just how large, how far and how numerous celestial bodies like exoplanets – planets beyond our solar system – really are.
So. How big is our Milky Way Galaxy?
We use light-time to measure the vast distances of space.
It’s the distance that light travels in a specific period of time. Also: LIGHT IS FAST, nothing travels faster than light.
How far can light travel in one second? 186,000 miles. It might look even faster in metric: 300,000 kilometers in one second. See? FAST.
How far can light travel in one minute? 11,160,000 miles. We’re moving now! Light could go around the Earth a bit more than 448 times in one minute.
Speaking of Earth, how long does it take light from the Sun to reach our planet? 8.3 minutes. (It takes 43.2 minutes for sunlight to reach Jupiter, about 484 million miles away.) Light is fast, but the distances are VAST.
In an hour, light can travel 671 million miles. We’re still light-years from the nearest exoplanet, by the way. Proxima Centauri b is 4.2 light-years away. So… how far is a light-year? 5.8 TRILLION MILES.
A trip at light speed to the very edge of our solar system – the farthest reaches of the Oort Cloud, a collection of dormant comets way, WAY out there – would take about 1.87 years.
Our galaxy contains 100 to 400 billion stars and is about 100,000 light-years across!
One of the most distant exoplanets known to us in the Milky Way is Kepler-443b. Traveling at light speed, it would take 3,000 years to get there. Or 28 billion years, going 60 mph. So, you know, far.
SPACE IS BIG.

Fanon Robb Stark: Love obsessed cinnamon roll who needs a hug! Can’t keep his dick in his pants and lost the North. Doesn’t deserve to be king and lost the war because he got married. Boring good guy obsessed with honor and love. The only people who remember him are his fans or people ready to say he was a bad king.
Canon Robb Stark: The entire realm was literally pissed scared of Robb Stark. He was the young Lord turned King who was destroying, straight up destroying Tywin Lannister. Tywin Lannister! The man who got a song named after him for being a fucking nightmare and Robb Stark was embarrassing him at every turn. He captured the King Slayer, one of the deadliest swordsmen in the series, destroyed the west, saved the Riverlands, and basically became a legend overnight. Robb Stark with his mother’s help was leading and winning a war on his own skill. Seriously, he wasn’t called “The Young Wolf” as a cute play on words since he was a Stark. They called him that cause they thought he could turn into a fucking Wolf! He was also a Warg, the only one besides Bran who even understood what the Wolf dreams meant. It took being betrayed by his best friend, 3 sworn house armies, and Tywin organizationing the Red Wedding, which is the equivalency to burning a church in our time, to defeat him and still to this day GRRM, the creator of ASOIAF/GOT says that he had to kill off Robb or he would’ve been unstoppable.
I think this fandom seriously forgets how motherfucking badass this character was and how it took literally the worst mother fucking luck a king in the north can motherfucking have to fucking defeat him. Seriously the motherfucker was fighting in a war with fucking four other KINGS! Fucking Four motherfuckers Kings! Who’s to say who could’ve done better?! Fuck of Robb was still alive fucking the Lannisters would be taking it in the ass right now! Daenerys?! Do you really think how that meeting would’ve been the same if he was there
Dany: The last King in the North was Torrhen Stark.
Robb: Aye he was, until your ancestor Aegon The conqueror burned thousands alive in the fields of fire…Do you wish to repeat history if I do not kneel?
Dany: Under a Targaryen the realm has always had peace.
Robb: Has it? The Faith Militant Uprising, The Dance of Dragons, Blackfyre Rebellion, War of the Ninepenny Kings, and of course Robert’s Rebellion, the war your father and brother started by killing my grandfather, uncle, and kidnapping my aunt.
Dany: Don’t judge a daughter for her family’s sins
Robb: But yet you want their power…How does that work? Wanting the Targaryen’s legacy but not their sins?
Dany:
Robb: I came for Dragonglass, but I see I must find it elsewhere.
Dany: I haven’t given you permission to leave yet.
Robb: Can you fight more than one war at once, Daenerys? I’ve done it before and it’s not easy. You’re fighting the Lions, don’t make the Wolves a threat too. If you truly want to prove you are not your father, let us have have the dragonglass. In exchange, I’ll aid you in securing the Irone Throne.
Dany: You would withhold the North from me?
Robb: And the Vale and Trident.
Dany: Under what grounds?
Robb: under the grounds that it is my family’s land and they named me their king. If you are a Queen because your family held the crown, then remember so was mine. If you truly mean to make the realm better then understand my people know no king but the king In The North. They will fight the dragons till their last breath. Then what will you have? Ashes. If you burn King’s landing, the Trident, and the North, then invade it with your army of rapists, you’ll only be known as the Mad Queen of the Ashes.
Dany:….So What do you purpose?
Robb: Cersei will never surrender, not even if the dead, dragons, and wolves are at her door. Her arrogance made her start a war, even when I tried to sue for peace. She ignored it.
Tyrion: You see no point in even trying?
Robb: What do you think your sister will do with the choice of kneel or die?
Tyrion:…She’ll fight till the bitter end and take as many lives with her.
Robb: Right. You may not believe my stories of dead men, but you at least believe in a form of peace. We can form an alliance. You made one with The Greyjoys, you can make one with me.
Dany: How did you-
Robb: The Ironborn would never work with you unless they would gain something. Let me rule over the North, Trident, and Vale. The rest of the realm will be yours. We will avenge our families that have suffered under the Lannisters and work together to stop the dead.
Dany: I still do not believe in stories of dead men, Robb Stark.
Robb: Aye, and I hadn’t believed in the return of dragons. The dead will come, yet the Lions are here now. One war at a time…Queen Daenerys.
Dany:…Very well…King Robb.
I only say that the meeting would have gone differently because Robb was raised and trained in history and how to negotiate and how to deal with Egos. I love Jon and his amazing Ass to death, but Ned didn’t raise him to be a Lord and definitely not a king. Jon was at the Wall during the war of the five Kings and was out of touch. Even Sansa and Tyrion had to tell Jon that he doesn’t understand Cersei like they do and he doesn’t. At the Wall there is barley politics, just survival. You can argue that the war for Dawn is different, but it takes someone to know how to deal with these people and their ego. That’s why Theories of Political Jon even exist. Going beyond the Wall wasn’t just to prove the army of the dead exist to Cersei, but to Dany too. Robb would believe Jon by default because he trusts and loves his brother. Robb would also understand just from the war of the five Kings that Cersei will never bend the knee, so it would be easier to convince Daenerys to fight with him like it was for Renly.
Build an all star North: Robb as King, Jon as a knight commander of the army, and Sansa as hand of the King.
Edit: Robb was the only one of the 5 Kings in the war who didn’t name himself King. His people did! The first king in 300 years! It wasn’t just the North either like most would think.
The North and the TRIDENT declared him their King! Two fucking continents declared a teenager King because he was that fucking badass! Seriously!
Stannis, Renly, Balon, Joffrey, all those fucks had to defend or fight for their claim. Robb Stark was given the crown. Two separate continents gave a teenager their crown! And he fucking wrecked everyone. Stannis and Tywin even had to respect him even though they wanted him gone. Fucking Renly wanted to work with him cus while his people loved him, Robb’s fucking people worshiped him. It’s been 5 seasons, 3 books and this mother fucker is still relevant in the fans eyes! Like fuck! Fuck You if you only remember as the tragic hero, he was more than just that.
Jon: Saw him as his best friend and hero. In the books and show he even claimed Robb was his better. Which maybe it was hero worship or maybe it was fucking true! Jon wasn’t a one man army in the books and in the show Robb didn’t have his guards. Fucker just want into war on his fucking own. Mind you that means he found a way to capture Jaime on his own too. Jon and Robb were close as fuck and the only reason book Jon didn’t join Robb was cause he thought he would’ve been killed for desertion. Jon still cries for Robb.
Sansa: Literally the poor girl took strength in Robb’s memory. It was the only comforting thing she could think about half the time. Her older brother, her hero, coming to fucking murder the Lannisters. Seriously from the day her father died till the day Robb died, he was all she thought about. She looked up to him, loved him. The fucker was her hero. She looked Joffrey right in the eyes and said “My brother will storm this fucking city and kill you all.” She always said she has to be strong like Robb.
Arya: She was just like Sansa. She looked at Robb like a hero. You show fans don’t know, but Arya loved Robb just as much as Jon. She thought about him daily and prayed for him to kill the Lannisters.
Bran: The boy wanted to go to war with Robb! Funny thing is while Bran wasn’t as good with the bow and arrow like Arya, he was better at swords. Bran wanted to warg into Summer and fight side by side with his brother. Just like his sisters he wanted to be strong like Robb.
Rickon: Robb was like a parent to him when Ned and Cat left. He took care of the kid, played with him. As he did with Bran .
The North and Trident: Those people books later still talk about him being their king and damning the oath breakers. Even the Karstarks still respect him. Seriously read the fucking books.
my question is, does Mamma Mia take place in
1) a universe where ABBA doesn’t exist and they’re just making up the songs as they go?
2) a universe where ABBA DOES exist and everyone has rehearsed and memorized all of their songs just in case the situation arises where they might need one?
