Actually, to be clear, I am torn. I get that there's some lovely symmetry to it, and I really did feel warm and gooey when I saw it in theaters. It just gets worse the longer I think about it.
Agreed on both counts.
Oh, I get it. You just don't like who did the rescuing, that's all. Wishin' I was your boyfriend what's-his-height. Oh wait, he's run off.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

The writers have said they feel the children were always Caps kids.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I have only watched Captain America, Avengers, and Winter Soldier and read a lot of Steve/Bucky fanfic, so this is very odd to me.

The writers have said they feel the children were always Caps kids.
The Russos, on the other hand, who are way better about details than the writers (the writers are the sort who should just not...talk, bless, and there's no way for it to be same timeline without contradicting massive amounts of the text), are on the alternate timeline train.
Which, you know, so am I. We know Loki made one, 'cause he gets a DisneyPlus series about it.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?

Yeah, I've always assumed "alternate timeline" for Steve. He and Peggy continued to fight the good fight in whatever timeline he hopped to while our prime timeline happened as we saw. Then after Peggy's death Steve hopped back to the prime timeline to say goodbye to Sam and hand over his shield. (Steve and Bucky's dialogue before Steve leaves as well as Bucky pointing out old Steve to Sam heavily implies Bucky knew exactly what Steve was planning.)

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Oh, I'm damn sure Bucky knew.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola
I do know about what the writers said, but I just can't make it make sense so I kind of ignore it. Hopping timelines... I mean, I guess, but how? No, I'm not really expecting anyone here to justify it. Just complaining. Also, I definitely think Bucky knew. That, at least, is not one of my complaints. /EndgameWhine
I kind of picked up the fandom only after Endgame, so I apologize for being all "feelings!" when I'm sure it's been discussed ad nauseam. If they ever get around to airing something new, I'll try to stay more current.

"...and then Legolas and the Hulk destroy the entire Greek army." - Penny Arcade
I'm pretty sure one of the early interviews with the Russos after it came out said that it was the Dr Strange of the other timeline, where he fixed everything, that sent him back to the main timeline.
In mostly unrelated news, no movie with Lockheed in it can be entirely bad.

I don't know if I'm more excited about Kate Bishop or Pizza Dog.
