The "I won't be in the history books; that's for you. But I loved you first. As long as they get that right, I don't care what they say" might be one of the most powerful lines I've ever read in all of fiction.
bunny m I started reading the fanfic today, and when I got to that line; I dunno, the way it leads up to it in the story, there’s so much emotion and power. A spot was carved out in history by Bucky, and he made damn sure that the world knew how important Steve was. I sat there reading and re-reading it and it moves me too, I don’t think there will ever be a better declaration of love, one with such force or truth.
Here after Endgame because that ending was just so... Bitter. It's like a pill that's hard to swallow and I don't think I'll ever get over it. Those few seconds between Steve and Bucky weren't enough, that broke my heart, but this video... Damn, this video completes me and at the same time it tears my soul in half, just like the fic. Truly, two masterpieces that never get old! Just like me crying over this! Words cannot describe the feelings that overwhelm me whenever I come back to watch this video. I love it with all of my heart.
Saw the video, had to read the fic, did it in a day, then came back to rewatch the video and my heart broke all over again.. so beautifully done "womb to tomb" has me crying like a baby every damn time
I'm so pleased you read the fic!! That line honestly kills me. WHO THINKS OF THAT???? It's so gorgeous, I'm never gonna be over it. Thank you sweetheart!
I used to love this video and this piece of music, but now when the end comes with "it's been a long long time" it feels like a slap to my face. On the other hand, "I loved you first" still holds true. Even if Steve decided to go back to Peggy and leave Bucky to deal with his ghosts alone in this strange time, "I loved you first" before Peggy knew who Steve was, before Steve was a man.
oh my god. the "not easily conquered" series is my favourite fanwork of all time, and this. did it more than justice. seriously, kudos to you. this is so well edited and you got the vibe down so well, like!
“Listen close. Listen to me when I say it in your ear. Remember it for me, just in case I ever happen to forget it again. I know this one in my spine-bones and somewhere now in the meat of my heart. It’s why the grave couldn’t keep me in, sweetheart. It’s how you even found me again at all. The fact of us is simple arithmetic. Torch me, bury me, break me: it's never going to stick. I’ll always come back from the dead for you. We belonged to each other before we ever belonged to ourselves.” Art.
Honestly Steve and Bucky storyline is way to sad . But they are my favorite relationship out of all the friendships . Bucky and Steve deserved better in their life . Steve is probable going to die and I will be crying . Steve and Bucky are their only connections from their past so sad.In civil war the reason why Steve is so protective over Bucky is because of their connection . Steve couldn’t lose another person from his past . Bucky is the only connection form his last . Steve and Bucky have friends for their whole entire life . I wish Steve didn’t feel guilt over what happened to Bucky but probable always will. Bucky last mission before he feel was with Steve . Bucky loves Steve so much . Even after all the brainwashing he remembered Steve . Also Steve makes me so sad because he literally never does anything for himself . He always puts everyone needs before his . He had sacfriced so much in this life . Steve always had to say goodbye to Bucky and Peggy and every Captain America movie . I can’t wait for infinity war . Bucky will be devastated when Steve dies .
Oh my god same. I spend like 2 hrs everyday just reading fanfics and watching these types of videos. When people say that Steve and Tony were friends, they dont get that Bucky is Steve's FAMILY. And when Bucky was getting tortured by HYDRA is was so sad, he was trying to remember steve but he coulnt and he is the only living person left that Steve knew from his past. I cant wait for infinity war but if one of them dies i swear my heart would break
Emmarellda1 I am not saying tony and Steve wouldn’t friends . But Bucky is his family . I agree I don’t understand why Steve is protecting Bucky . The fight at the end between each other . I do agree Steve should have told tony the truth about his parents . But how would you even start that conversation and always he was protecting Bucky . Steve now ha even me guilt. Another reason why Steve is so protective is that Peggy just died and Bucky was going to get killed . He didn’t want to lose another person . I understand Steve betrayed tony but his connection with Bucky is more important to him . Also I hated how tony said you didn’t deserve the shield . Steve lost his freedom , Peggy , symbolism of Captain America , his shield . I mean really every movie ends sadly for him . He never gets the happy ending like ever . Bucky and Steve are such sad people . Steve is an amazing leader who makes mistakes . Another thing I feel about Steve is that he is just as flawed as everyone else . If he makes one mistake then that means he is a bad person. Also for the accords there are so many reasons why he can’t sign. After what happened after winter soldier he can’t trust any type of government . Also the government knows things are going to Happen and they do nothing . Steve is an amazing person .
I know i was just adding tht in. I would do what steve did. Bucky was innocent and oh my god same steve is never happy. I dont think the accords were a good idea. But like Bucky was tortured for so long it broke my heart and right when he was getting better, he wad dragged back into the fight. And they literally never get a break. They are both alone and their other half is gone. I always thought of them being soulmates, their bond was so strong and they need each other.
Emmarellda1 steve and Bucky look so tired about their life . Steve is sick of fighting but the sad thing is that Steve doesn’t know what else to do in his life . Everything and everyone was taken from Steve and Bucky . It is sad to think that Steve is literally never happy . Even I was steve I would save Bucky too . Bucky and Steve make me so sad . Look how many much both of them have changed . Steve just looks so sad . Both of them always have to fight someone and they hate it . I couldn’t even imagine how tired both of them about everything .Their bond is amazing without each other they are not the same . Yet again they both have to fight. How much can two people deal with in their life . Like I said before Steve is probable going to die. I mean really his happiness has been taken from him . I couldn’t even imagine what Bucky would be like oh good . Steve and Bucky are probable two of the saddest characters ever . Steve never gets a break and also a life that he wants . Bucky better have happiness and Steve too
Oh lord. This broke me. I am crying. When I started I thought 'hm, those quotes sound familiar' and then I read the description and, wow, it's been so long since I read that fic and it already broke me, and now this perfect video... I'll have to reread it now, because apparently I like crying about this. It was absolutely beautiful and perfect.
Ok now I'm emotionally compromised. Like crying my yes out compromised. This is such a genius vid and I will never in my life get over the "womb to tomb" line. Damn! This vid is everything the fic deserves!
Thank you my love! That's very high praise :3 I've been screaming about the "womb to tomb" line for the past two weeks tbh and I don't think I will get over it any time soon
holy shit. holy. shit. i'm crying. i'm sitting here, with my heart stuttering and my eyes watering and i cannot believe the heartbreak, the emotion, the timelessness of steve and bucky's relationship that you managed to capture so well. i'm so glad you went from peggy to steve to bucky to steve again, it was so wonderfully thought out and the quotes you chose were the best ones. the ending, when you incorporated old 40s music, literally killed me. wonderful job. absolutely phenomenal.
I loved that fic, It was actually the first Stucky fanfic I read and I couldn't read anything after it, because it felt so real and raw and beautiful that I didn't, and still don't, think anything could compare, and your video did it justice. Well done!!
This fic sets the bar impossibly high for all other fanfics tbh. In my personal experience, nothing quite reaches the level of it. It's just incredible. I'm glad you think it did :) Thank you!
I like to think they saw this video and were like "oh yes good" (though tbf it was probably a call back to The Winter Soldier since it's on that soundtrack BUT A GIRL CAN DREAM)
2:05 when steve look at him, bucky smile and then when steve look away, his face drop, his eyes look into the distance and look at steve, the color tursn black n white, and the quote "this war, it'll swallow me whole"............... that's master editing skill, u making me cry again, congrats....
So... I only discovered this yesterday... And I already finished the fic... And came back to watch it again... I have no words except for a sincere "thank you". Without this, I would have missed out on some incredibly good writers. And that final touch with the song "It's been a long, long time"... nearly broke my heart once again. This is amazing. Thank you so much.
so i finally read this series from finding this video and can I just say wow. the way it’s written so well and so detailed and the letters, oh, the letters. anybody else cry over the oranges one besides me? that’s the one that gets me the most. i felt like the ending could’ve been a *little* more, i dunno, impactive? it’s still amazing, no doubt. it’s a little confusing for me though how he was married to peggy and “dating” bucky? ik that’s like a thing nowadays but it was a little weird to think about. other than that, i came back to watch this video again after reading it and can i just say WOW. you’re work was amazing and you highlighted the writing very well. great job and thank you for helping me discover this beauty!! it’s my favorite in depressing stucky stories for sure. my favorite in happy stucky stories in texts~stucky on wattpad!! i highly recommend it to anyone who wants to read something with music and references and happy smut fluff stuff. here’s the link-my.w.tt/x5HG9OiZeY
Jesus this is beautiful how the scenes and music and writing all work together. To wrap it up with that 40s music at the end.. I've never read this story but this edit definetly made me want to! Great work
This made me cry, Steve and Buck's bond is precious and you gave it all the respect and attention that is deserves!! Live you for making this ..this is epic just like their story!♥️♥️
That fan fiction was superbly crafted. The 13 letters broke my heart. Thank you for your wonderful video, without which I would not have found the story. 💕
I just read it all. Took me a few days, and many hours. God-damn, that's a story I won't forget for a long, long time. - I loved your video, absolutely incredible. You captured the story so well and hooked me into reading it at all. I loved the music at the end, and the way you put key words over the top-woah. I got chills. Especially after I read the books and knew their context. Amazing job bringing this series to life for us, I loved it.
Without any exaggeration, this is a masterpiece. It's been almost two years since I've watched your video for the first time, and I'm still sure it's beautiful and heart-touching. Thank you for your job
This is so good! My heart cannot hadle this. I read the fic years ago, it's one of my top favorites, and YT just recommended me your video and I'm crying right now.
I am so glad that I am finally seeing more SAL songs used in videos - they are so fitting and beautiful! His music stole my heart and this video shattered it in his hand with Stucky. I love those two so much and you just brought back all the pain UGH
Wow. This is amazing. Thank you, thank you for the tribute to Stucky. Best couple ever! They're starcrossed lovers, childhood friends and pal-soldiers. I love them with all my heart and I really felt like they needed a tribute, so thank you.
Oh my goodness. I knew the title felt familiar! I read this ages ago and bawled so hard over that part of the letter as well. Watching these scenes with supporting lines from the story was a little emotional for me, I'm not gonna lie. This is just so beautiful.
what the fuck, that dialogue is so beautiful!! I read the comments and looks like this is a fic, I'm gonna read it and go cry for a week, beautiful video
It apparently wasn't enough that the fic ruined me (really, I was out of commission for days while and after reading it), but now there's this?! So beautiful. So perfect. Artfully done. Such a breathtaking combination of text, imagery and music. Thanks for sharing.
oh GOD. I love EVERYTHING about this??? Also YES this is such amazing way to incorporate otherwise impossible to vid fics - using texts, quotes from fic intsef. God, this is beautiful.
Thank youuuuuu!! It took me like three days to come up with a way to vid this fic??? I wasn't sure at ALL whether it would work, but people seem to enjoy the end result hahaha. Thank you again :)
Oh my god. I only just read this fic a couple months ago (yep I’m so behind hah), and it’s one of my favourites of all time, nothing quite like it. I randomly clicked on this video not reading properly, as soon as it started and those three lines came up I knew exactly what it was from and I started SOBBINGGG omfg. I’m not even joking heck. This video is absolutely gorgeous, it’s so perfect. Seriously, a million kudos. I’ve watched it multiple times already, crying my eyes out and I’ll come back to watch it a lot I bet. Aahhh my heart!! Hit me right in the feels.
THANK YOU FOR DOING GOD'S WORK AND MAKING THIS. Cannot believe there's a such a well-made video about my favorite fic series of all time set to a song by one of my favorite bands of all time. Sleeping at Last is such a steve/bucky band--great choice. Beautifully edited--thank you for paying tribute to such a beautiful piece of fiction that needs to be celebrated!
I want to thank you for this video. Not only it's a beautiful, heartbreaking tribute to Bucky and Steve, it also led me to discover that absolute miracle of a fanfic. Truly one of the most gorgeous things I've ever read.
I’m actually crying over this- Bucky needs Steve, and Marvel just had Steve go back in time to Peggy. I hope that in the new show coming out this year, Captain America and the Winter Solider that something happens between Bucky and Steve. They just deserved so much more. I could do this all day :(
I've spent the last two days reading all evening after work! Just part 3 left. It is some amazingly creative and just heartbreaking. I love it. I also love that people are making fanvids inspired by fic. I teach fandom to college students and this is next level awesomeness. Your vid is ridiculously beautiful such a great supplement to the fic.
i stumbled upon this edit a few weeks after reading the fic it was made for. i hadn't even realized why the quotes used were so familiar at first, and im crying again ): such an amazing edit!
Okay so after watching this I absolutely had to read the fic! Over the course of like two weeks I read it, and I absorbed every word every single scene, andddd last night I finished and literally bawled my eyes out because I hated that it was over because it affected me so deeply! Thank you so much for making this, I never would have found the fic otherwise! This is seriously a work of art! If you have any other fic recommendation I’m all ears!!!
I rarely read Steve/Bucky fic but I'll ask my friend who rec'ed me this if she has a fic rec tag! She always recommends THE BEST fics :) I'll let you know!
Okay, I asked my friends (who I dedicated this to) and Noe said that you should really read archiveofourown.org/users/whatthefoucault/pseuds/whatthefoucault and here is B's fic rec page: iamnotsebastianstan-archive.tumblr.com/ficrec
I reread it in one sitting yesterday. Didn't mean to, but it's kinda hard to stop. You did an absolutely wonderful job with this. Thank you. And I'm of course crying.
i always find myself coming back to this video and rewatching it (which is usually not a good idea lmao) but it's so beautiful and i love the song choice because i listened to SAL a lot while reading this fic and it just fits so perfectly!
i feel like I've already commented on this but here I go again because every time i come across this, I have to watch it and sit in the corner of my mind for a while in order to get my emotions in check, G O D D A M N
Okay, I'm reading this fanfiction and it's freaking masterpiece! I've never read something so well and beautifly written. I was up till 3 am because of it, no regrets
I was watching random bucky/Steve tributes all across TH-cam and found this one. I read the description first (not sure why lol but felt like it) and realized it was based off a story. So I saved the video to watch later. I attempted to watch the video first and it was wonderful. But after reading the story itself??? Which I wouldn’t have found without you by the way...I’m destroyed. Then I watched the tribute again and my heart...it just can’t take it. I didn’t want the story to end and it’s all because of running into this beautiful video.
OH MY GOD!! OH MY GOD!! Not Easily Conquered was, is and always will be my most favorite Steve/Bucky fanfiction, and to have a video dedicated to this??? Now I can die. Peacefully
This fic so profound it truly makes my heart hurt... I mean there are actual novels I’ve read that don’t even COMPARE to this piece. Breathtakingly beautiful. It’s been 3 years since I’ve read it and honestly I won’t ever get over it.....
Not Easily Conquered tore me to pieces and now this is here to remind me how beautiful and soulful the experience was. Love has never been captured perfectly in words. Gorgeous choice of music!
The fic kind of speaks for itself, it's incredible. "Love has never been captured perfectly in words." is honestly the best way to describe it, 10000% agree. Thank you
OMG YES! I read those fanfics a couple of years ago and they are still a couple of my favorites! I got so lost in that universe that was created it almost felt it was real life! And it was so beautiful! And god this vid!! You did an amazing job! You made the fic justice!!
I know, this fanfic is so well written and the universe is so close to the movieverse that it's almost impossible to separate them!! Thank you very much, that's an honour :)
i honestly gasped. somehow i always come back to this fix, this masterpiece and there's always something to remind me of its perfection, today it was your magnificent video. thank you :)
You would think that after reading the fic hundreds of times and watching this video even more I wouldn't cry like a baby every damn time and yet here i am crying my eyes out. Good job though, you're really talented!
this is so fucking good. god bless you for honoring the most poetic quotes. there is so much good about this fic, i only wish everyone would read it, marvel fans or not.
Well, fuck, there goes my heart ... O.o I read this fic a few weeks (or months, it's kind of a blur) back, and I rarely cry when I'm reading but it just simply destroyed me, and your video perfectly captured the whole feel of that story and everything in it. I am tearing up all over again, beautiful work! The quotes worked really well with the clips you chose and I am now an emotional wreck all over again... (tbh you just have to say "I loved you first" to me at this point and my heart plummets right out of my chest, this story was so good and this video is a perfect addition
Omg thank you so much that's so sweet of you!!! Honestly this fic wrecked me, it was a Lot but so good too (And yes same at the I loved you first thing!!)
Okay, okay welp I'm so very late to this edit, but heck... I was not prepared. Honestly, the edit is so simplistic and beautiful. The quotes get making the scenes so much more deep and thought provoking. When it came to 'from womb to tomb' the floodgates opened, but in the beauty of it. I started reading the fanfiction last night, and am already on Part 2 of 3, and your edit just amplifies the beauty of it. Thank you for this.
I know everyone loves the womb to tomb line and so do I but I can't get over the 'But I loved you first' that whole quote it so beautiful. Also I loved how you managed to get Natasha in there because even though it was Bucky/Steve I loved Nat's role in the third part of the fic. This video actually inspired me to go read it so I'm just back from finishing it (at 1 in the morning - so delayed reply) and it's probably the best fic I've ever read. 😍 So thank you for recommending it!!
Oh my fucking God, why did I make the decision to watch this before Endgame!? No! My fucking heart is shattering again. This was so beautiful. UPDATE: I finished reading this damn fic yesterday, three weeks after watching Endgame. And now I'm literally dead inside. Thank you.
O M G. I read the funfic sometime ago and I L O V E D it, I don't think I'm ever gonna recover from that, and now this. I never signed up for this, but thank you. Sort of

I'm here because I need therapy after Steve's arc in Endgame
omg harry styles
bucky barnes really!?!
The way they ruined Steve's arc and his story with Buck, still drives me mad
Marvel: *makes a trilogy about Steve risking everything for bucky* Also Marvel: lets ruin that for dead girl shall we?
I still can't get over it I mean where was that even an option after everything he sacrificed for Bucky to just leave him nope
The "I won't be in the history books; that's for you. But I loved you first. As long as they get that right, I don't care what they say" might be one of the most powerful lines I've ever read in all of fiction.
And the "How long have I loved you for? Womb to tomb, sweetheart. Since before I was even here at all." This one goes with me everywhere.
This is amazing. Continuing my stucky marathon after endgame...
I cried my eyes out at the "I loved you first" line. So well done
Thank you! That line still moves me everytime
bunny m I started reading the fanfic today, and when I got to that line; I dunno, the way it leads up to it in the story, there’s so much emotion and power. A spot was carved out in history by Bucky, and he made damn sure that the world knew how important Steve was. I sat there reading and re-reading it and it moves me too, I don’t think there will ever be a better declaration of love, one with such force or truth.
I had to come back after endgame because THAT SONG AT THE END WAS A STUCKY SONG AND THEY-
I love how you have the vintage music fade out in the end
That took me ageeees hahaha, I'm glad you liked it :)
its so eerie and melancholic. I agree
TeamHodgins It would’ve been awesome if you had done it with the whole song imagine how cool that would’ve sounded
Here after Endgame because that ending was just so... Bitter. It's like a pill that's hard to swallow and I don't think I'll ever get over it. Those few seconds between Steve and Bucky weren't enough, that broke my heart, but this video... Damn, this video completes me and at the same time it tears my soul in half, just like the fic. Truly, two masterpieces that never get old! Just like me crying over this! Words cannot describe the feelings that overwhelm me whenever I come back to watch this video. I love it with all of my heart.
this is so incredible, thank you so much
@@TeamHodgins Noo! Thank YOU for making this. You're so talented. ♥
Saw the video, had to read the fic, did it in a day, then came back to rewatch the video and my heart broke all over again.. so beautifully done
"womb to tomb" has me crying like a baby every damn time
I'm so pleased you read the fic!! That line honestly kills me. WHO THINKS OF THAT???? It's so gorgeous, I'm never gonna be over it. Thank you sweetheart!
Where can you read the fic ?
@@mireillepoirier-leonard3657 it's trilogy Not Easly Conquered on ao3 just put it in google it will show up
Thank you !!
I know this was like a long time ago, but is that Clarke in your profile picture ?
I used to love this video and this piece of music, but now when the end comes with "it's been a long long time" it feels like a slap to my face. On the other hand, "I loved you first" still holds true. Even if Steve decided to go back to Peggy and leave Bucky to deal with his ghosts alone in this strange time, "I loved you first" before Peggy knew who Steve was, before Steve was a man.
"So how long have I loved you for? Womb to tomb, sweetheart. Since before I was even here at all." That line got me fucked up
Oh, that fic wrecked my life and you decide to destroy my soul!?!
What can I say ;)
BlyssfulStorm what fan fic? What was the name?

Hahahhah this is 2019 guess what? BucKY DIED INSTEAD OF STEVE
So Infinity War is out and I'm back sobbing watching this vid...
Watching this after Infinity War is a relatable way of dealing with what happened
So Endgame is out and I'm back sobbing watching this vid..
This remains the absolute best piece of fiction that I've ever read. Two years since I read it and I can't find anything as good anywhere I look.
Holy SHIT this was so beautiful, one of the best I've seen 😭😭 I'm reading this fanfic asap
Thank you so much!!! You really should it is SO good!
Is Stucky endgame?
Oh lord. This broke me. I am crying. When I started I thought 'hm, those quotes sound familiar' and then I read the description and, wow, it's been so long since I read that fic and it already broke me, and now this perfect video... I'll have to reread it now, because apparently I like crying about this. It was absolutely beautiful and perfect.
Aww thank you so much! This fic also broke me and I had to do something with it :) Thank you again!
Ok now I'm emotionally compromised. Like crying my yes out compromised. This is such a genius vid and I will never in my life get over the "womb to tomb" line. Damn! This vid is everything the fic deserves!
Thank you my love! That's very high praise :3 I've been screaming about the "womb to tomb" line for the past two weeks tbh and I don't think I will get over it any time soon
holy shit. holy. shit. i'm crying. i'm sitting here, with my heart stuttering and my eyes watering and i cannot believe the heartbreak, the emotion, the timelessness of steve and bucky's relationship that you managed to capture so well. i'm so glad you went from peggy to steve to bucky to steve again, it was so wonderfully thought out and the quotes you chose were the best ones. the ending, when you incorporated old 40s music, literally killed me. wonderful job. absolutely phenomenal.
Ahhh thank you so much!! I'm glad you liked the ending, it took me AGES to get right... You're really too kind xx
I loved that fic, It was actually the first Stucky fanfic I read and I couldn't read anything after it, because it felt so real and raw and beautiful that I didn't, and still don't, think anything could compare, and your video did it justice. Well done!!
This fic sets the bar impossibly high for all other fanfics tbh. In my personal experience, nothing quite reaches the level of it. It's just incredible. I'm glad you think it did :) Thank you!
This is definitely the best but you could also try “War, children”
AM I THE ONLY ONE CRYING BC THIS EDIT USED THE SONG FROM THE END OF ENDGAME AT THE END OF IT WITHOUT EVEN KNOWING IT. IM HURTING
I like to think they saw this video and were like "oh yes good" (though tbf it was probably a call back to The Winter Soldier since it's on that soundtrack BUT A GIRL CAN DREAM)
This was a stucky song long before they stole it from us....
2:05 when steve look at him, bucky smile and then when steve look away, his face drop, his eyes look into the distance and look at steve, the color tursn black n white, and the quote "this war, it'll swallow me whole"............... that's master editing skill, u making me cry again, congrats....
So... I only discovered this yesterday... And I already finished the fic... And came back to watch it again...
I have no words except for a sincere "thank you". Without this, I would have missed out on some incredibly good writers. And that final touch with the song "It's been a long, long time"... nearly broke my heart once again.
This is amazing. Thank you so much.
This is so incredibly kind of you. I'm glad you found the fic through this and I'm glad you enjoyed the video
My heart can't handle what you created here. Beautiful work.
Aww thank you so much!
please not easily conquered is the best fic i’ve ever read
Had to watch this again after the fustercluck that was Endgame...
I just pretend the fic is canon it helps with the pain
so i finally read this series from finding this video and can I just say wow. the way it’s written so well and so detailed and the letters, oh, the letters. anybody else cry over the oranges one besides me? that’s the one that gets me the most. i felt like the ending could’ve been a *little* more, i dunno, impactive? it’s still amazing, no doubt. it’s a little confusing for me though how he was married to peggy and “dating” bucky? ik that’s like a thing nowadays but it was a little weird to think about. other than that, i came back to watch this video again after reading it and can i just say WOW. you’re work was amazing and you highlighted the writing very well. great job and thank you for helping me discover this beauty!! it’s my favorite in depressing stucky stories for sure. my favorite in happy stucky stories in texts~stucky on wattpad!! i highly recommend it to anyone who wants to read something with music and references and happy smut fluff stuff. here’s the link-my.w.tt/x5HG9OiZeY
Jesus this is beautiful how the scenes and music and writing all work together. To wrap it up with that 40s music at the end.. I've never read this story but this edit definetly made me want to! Great work
This made me cry,
Steve and Buck's bond is precious and you gave it all the respect and attention that is deserves!!
Live you for making this ..this is epic just like their story!♥️♥️
sometimes i come back to this just to have a good cry
i havent cried this hard since i read the fic oh god
That fan fiction was superbly crafted. The 13 letters broke my heart. Thank you for your wonderful video, without which I would not have found the story. 💕
I just read it all. Took me a few days, and many hours. God-damn, that's a story I won't forget for a long, long time.
-
I loved your video, absolutely incredible. You captured the story so well and hooked me into reading it at all. I loved the music at the end, and the way you put key words over the top-woah. I got chills. Especially after I read the books and knew their context. Amazing job bringing this series to life for us, I loved it.
I CAME BACK FROM ENDGAME AND I.AM.BROKEN. PLZ SEND HELP MY DUDES
Without any exaggeration, this is a masterpiece. It's been almost two years since I've watched your video for the first time, and I'm still sure it's beautiful and heart-touching. Thank you for your job
This is so good! My heart cannot hadle this. I read the fic years ago, it's one of my top favorites, and YT just recommended me your video and I'm crying right now.
i only now, years later, read that masterpiece...and then this was in my recommended
i am broken inside. i just...wow
I am so glad that I am finally seeing more SAL songs used in videos - they are so fitting and beautiful! His music stole my heart and this video shattered it in his hand with Stucky. I love those two so much and you just brought back all the pain UGH
I've used his songs for ages but this is the first time I used one of his instrumental ones! I love them so much :) Thank you very much!
Wow. This is amazing. Thank you, thank you for the tribute to Stucky. Best couple ever! They're starcrossed lovers, childhood friends and pal-soldiers. I love them with all my heart and I really felt like they needed a tribute, so thank you.
Oh my goodness. I knew the title felt familiar! I read this ages ago and bawled so hard over that part of the letter as well. Watching these scenes with supporting lines from the story was a little emotional for me, I'm not gonna lie. This is just so beautiful.
Aww thank you sweetheart!
what the fuck, that dialogue is so beautiful!! I read the comments and looks like this is a fic, I'm gonna read it and go cry for a week, beautiful video
Good luck with the fic! It hurts so much but it's so worth it
TeamHodgins Angsty fics are my jam, they hurt so good :P
Just how beautiful is this? All quotes, the song, scenes....So perfect.
Thank you so much!
It apparently wasn't enough that the fic ruined me (really, I was out of commission for days while and after reading it), but now there's this?! So beautiful. So perfect. Artfully done. Such a breathtaking combination of text, imagery and music. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much :) You're too kind
oh GOD. I love EVERYTHING about this???
Also YES this is such amazing way to incorporate otherwise impossible to vid fics - using texts, quotes from fic intsef. God, this is beautiful.
Thank youuuuuu!! It took me like three days to come up with a way to vid this fic??? I wasn't sure at ALL whether it would work, but people seem to enjoy the end result hahaha. Thank you again :)
Oh my god. I only just read this fic a couple months ago (yep I’m so behind hah), and it’s one of my favourites of all time, nothing quite like it. I randomly clicked on this video not reading properly, as soon as it started and those three lines came up I knew exactly what it was from and I started SOBBINGGG omfg. I’m not even joking heck. This video is absolutely gorgeous, it’s so perfect. Seriously, a million kudos. I’ve watched it multiple times already, crying my eyes out and I’ll come back to watch it a lot I bet. Aahhh my heart!! Hit me right in the feels.
THANK YOU FOR DOING GOD'S WORK AND MAKING THIS. Cannot believe there's a such a well-made video about my favorite fic series of all time set to a song by one of my favorite bands of all time. Sleeping at Last is such a steve/bucky band--great choice. Beautifully edited--thank you for paying tribute to such a beautiful piece of fiction that needs to be celebrated!
I'm glad you enjoyed it! this fic is truly something special
I want to thank you for this video. Not only it's a beautiful, heartbreaking tribute to Bucky and Steve, it also led me to discover that absolute miracle of a fanfic. Truly one of the most gorgeous things I've ever read.
I’m actually crying over this-
Bucky needs Steve, and Marvel just had Steve go back in time to Peggy.
I hope that in the new show coming out this year, Captain America and the Winter Solider that something happens between Bucky and Steve.
They just deserved so much more.
I could do this all day :(
Beautiful! *running off to read the fic now*
Did ya read it? :D
I've spent the last two days reading all evening after work! Just part 3 left. It is some amazingly creative and just heartbreaking. I love it. I also love that people are making fanvids inspired by fic. I teach fandom to college students and this is next level awesomeness. Your vid is ridiculously beautiful such a great supplement to the fic.
oh and your maybe vid WRECKED me.
qaffangyrl
Ahh that's so cool! Thank you very much :) And enjoy the last part!
This was one of the best fics I've read. It kept me up at night.
I havent even read the fic and you made me cry!! damn you
REAAAAD IT!!!! But I'm glad I was able to do that hahaha ;)
This was heart-wrenching and beautiful!!! How COULD you, when I already suffer from such Stucky feels??
Thank you very much!! I like to make people suffer in my spare time hahaha ;)
i stumbled upon this edit a few weeks after reading the fic it was made for. i hadn't even realized why the quotes used were so familiar at first, and im crying again ): such an amazing edit!
that fic and this video broke my heart into a million pieces, put em back together, and broke it again and i aint even mad because i _love it_
Okay so after watching this I absolutely had to read the fic! Over the course of like two weeks I read it, and I absorbed every word every single scene, andddd last night I finished and literally bawled my eyes out because I hated that it was over because it affected me so deeply! Thank you so much for making this, I never would have found the fic otherwise! This is seriously a work of art! If you have any other fic recommendation I’m all ears!!!
I rarely read Steve/Bucky fic but I'll ask my friend who rec'ed me this if she has a fic rec tag! She always recommends THE BEST fics :) I'll let you know!
Okay, I asked my friends (who I dedicated this to) and Noe said that you should really read archiveofourown.org/users/whatthefoucault/pseuds/whatthefoucault
and here is B's fic rec page: iamnotsebastianstan-archive.tumblr.com/ficrec
I reread it in one sitting yesterday. Didn't mean to, but it's kinda hard to stop. You did an absolutely wonderful job with this. Thank you. And I'm of course crying.
Sometimes you just have to reread! Thank you so much
i always find myself coming back to this video and rewatching it (which is usually not a good idea lmao) but it's so beautiful and i love the song choice because i listened to SAL a lot while reading this fic and it just fits so perfectly!
Aww omg thank you so much!! What a happy coincidence :)
What's the song throughout the piece ?
i feel like I've already commented on this but here I go again because every time i come across this, I have to watch it and sit in the corner of my mind for a while in order to get my emotions in check, G O D D A M N
Okay, I'm reading this fanfiction and it's freaking masterpiece! I've never read something so well and beautifly written. I was up till 3 am because of it, no regrets
sounds like a good decision to me ;)
I was watching random bucky/Steve tributes all across TH-cam and found this one. I read the description first (not sure why lol but felt like it) and realized it was based off a story. So I saved the video to watch later. I attempted to watch the video first and it was wonderful. But after reading the story itself??? Which I wouldn’t have found without you by the way...I’m destroyed. Then I watched the tribute again and my heart...it just can’t take it. I didn’t want the story to end and it’s all because of running into this beautiful video.
I'm so happy you found it through this video! It's such an incredible fanfic and knowing I could lead even one person to it makes me very happy!
OH MY GOD!! OH MY GOD!! Not Easily Conquered was, is and always will be my most favorite Steve/Bucky fanfiction, and to have a video dedicated to this??? Now I can die. Peacefully
This fic so profound it truly makes my heart hurt... I mean there are actual novels I’ve read that don’t even COMPARE to this piece. Breathtakingly beautiful. It’s been 3 years since I’ve read it and honestly I won’t ever get over it.....
ugh same, nothing compares
so freaking incredible. I read the fic a while ago but just saw this and... wow
this one. this is the video that led me to nec trilogy. thank you so much.
If this causes the kudos on that series to skyrocket then Bravo and thank you. Everyone should read that story. Awesome editing !!
Not Easily Conquered tore me to pieces and now this is here to remind me how beautiful and soulful the experience was. Love has never been captured perfectly in words. Gorgeous choice of music!
The fic kind of speaks for itself, it's incredible. "Love has never been captured perfectly in words." is honestly the best way to describe it, 10000% agree. Thank you
Thank you so much for posting this video. It reminded me of how beautiful NEC is. Guess i have to read it again!
OMG YES! I read those fanfics a couple of years ago and they are still a couple of my favorites! I got so lost in that universe that was created it almost felt it was real life! And it was so beautiful! And god this vid!! You did an amazing job! You made the fic justice!!
I know, this fanfic is so well written and the universe is so close to the movieverse that it's almost impossible to separate them!! Thank you very much, that's an honour :)
i honestly gasped. somehow i always come back to this fix, this masterpiece and there's always something to remind me of its perfection, today it was your magnificent video. thank you :)
my pleasure! I have not read anything better since this fic, it deserves all the love
You would think that after reading the fic hundreds of times and watching this video even more I wouldn't cry like a baby every damn time and yet here i am crying my eyes out. Good job though, you're really talented!
I might need to start handing out tissues to go with this video :P You're a sweetheart, thank you!
this is so fucking good. god bless you for honoring the most poetic quotes. there is so much good about this fic, i only wish everyone would read it, marvel fans or not.
the letters are just, yeah, indescribable, and this vid just threw me once again into the void, the fic will never leave me,, it hurt me too much
watching this after having watched endgame,,,, HURTED
I have read the fic so many times and any time I see a post about it I feel compelled to read it again
i'm already sobbing within the first 20 seconds
Well, fuck, there goes my heart ... O.o
I read this fic a few weeks (or months, it's kind of a blur) back, and I rarely cry when I'm reading but it just simply destroyed me, and your video perfectly captured the whole feel of that story and everything in it. I am tearing up all over again, beautiful work! The quotes worked really well with the clips you chose and I am now an emotional wreck all over again...
(tbh you just have to say "I loved you first" to me at this point and my heart plummets right out of my chest, this story was so good and this video is a perfect addition
Omg thank you so much that's so sweet of you!!! Honestly this fic wrecked me, it was a Lot but so good too (And yes same at the I loved you first thing!!)
That fic makes me cry every time... and this, it's too much, it's too perfect. Womb to tomb, sweetheart 💙
Okay, okay welp I'm so very late to this edit, but heck... I was not prepared. Honestly, the edit is so simplistic and beautiful. The quotes get making the scenes so much more deep and thought provoking. When it came to 'from womb to tomb' the floodgates opened, but in the beauty of it.
I started reading the fanfiction last night, and am already on Part 2 of 3, and your edit just amplifies the beauty of it. Thank you for this.
yo I came here to cry and you delivered.
Love this Fanfiction & the video is a beautiful tribute
this is ridiculously well done !!! great job
thank you so much! :D
i'm never getting over stucky or that fic or this video. beautiful!
this is great. the editing. the feels. i love all of this
I know everyone loves the womb to tomb line and so do I but I can't get over the 'But I loved you first' that whole quote it so beautiful. Also I loved how you managed to get Natasha in there because even though it was Bucky/Steve I loved Nat's role in the third part of the fic. This video actually inspired me to go read it so I'm just back from finishing it (at 1 in the morning - so delayed reply) and it's probably the best fic I've ever read. 😍 So thank you for recommending it!!
My pleasure!! I'm glad you enjoyed it as much as I did
Oh my fucking God, why did I make the decision to watch this before Endgame!? No! My fucking heart is shattering again. This was so beautiful.
UPDATE: I finished reading this damn fic yesterday, three weeks after watching Endgame. And now I'm literally dead inside. Thank you.
you really want to hurt yourself huh. (though I have a feeling this'll hurt more after Endgame)
My heart hurts and I'm legit crying from this beautiful edit.
this is so beautiful i cried the entire time. that fic changed me and this is such an amazing addition.
Thank u thank u and thank u once again for making this!!! I found a GEM of a fanfiction and my Stucky feels just.. ahhhh no words! This video ROCKS!
I had just reread that fic and I had no idea there was a vid for it! Can't lie, absolutely got teary-eyed watching this.
Thank youu!!
I'm literally crying my eyes out (instead of doing homework I might add) your videos are incredible!
Thank you so so much!! Homework is important too hahaha (but I have totally avoided doing homework by watching youtube too)
TeamHodgins yeah I mean which obsessive fangirl hasn't?!
Ahh... right in the feels 😭
the music at the end was 👌🏻👌🏻
This is a freaking masterpiece! I watched it 5 times in a row and cried like a baby omg 😍
This makes me cry so much! Bucky and Steve are my favorite this video is so good!
I've seen this like a thousand times and I cry every time...
An amazing video for a perfect fanfiction
thank you for this 😭
Oh my god this is amazing! I read this fic a couple of months ago and loooved it and now it's just 100 times more incredible! I'm crying for real
Thank you so much!! That's so nice of you xx
O M G.
I read the funfic sometime ago and I L O V E D it, I don't think I'm ever gonna recover from that, and now this.
I never signed up for this, but thank you. Sort of
Hahaha my pleasure (sort of ;)) I don't think we will ever recover from this fic xx
