BROADWAY BACKWARDS. Five things with Broadway Backwards! With Steve Rogers, with the Stars, I dun care. :D

Cheerfully ignores Civil War.

(Also apparently in this 'verse Sunset House is a talent agency?)

1)
Most weird things in Steve's life nowadays happen can be traced to Natasha, but this one was Sam's all the way. Later Steve figured out that this was Sam feeling him out, and kinda wished Sam had just asked, but on the other hand kinda understood why he hadn't. In any case they went, saw some talented fellas with VERY highly defined muscles do campy sendups of Broadway songs, and Steve went home and drew nothing but male figures from memory for a week.

2)
The next year Steve and Sam were going steady - to Nat's glee, worrying everyone in her general vicinity - and they went back to Broadway Backwards as a kind of hey-remember-when date. By then they were a little more of a high-profile couple so they got to go backstage and meet some of the dancers. Bantering with the redhead who vamped his way through "Roxy" was fun, but Steve found himself talking shop with the shorter, stockier redhead who'd scolded the slight, brown-haired Maria through "A Boy Like That". He ended up trading email addresses with Sirius, which got him a raised eyebrow from Sam, but when Steve pointed out they'd bonded over the experience of wearing itchy tights in front of a large audience, he laughed.

3)
That was the year they finally caught up to Bucky, so things were - chaotic. For a while. They didn't make it to Broadway Backwards, or any other show that year. Sirius sent him a few clips of the show, including a whole chorus line doing "Pet Me Papa" with the leggy redhead - Centauri - front and center. Bucky stared at it until it ended and then gave Steve a flat look, which was the most emotion Steve had seen from him since the helicarrier. The stars got an effusive thank-you note.

4)
Steve stopped feeling guilty about considering himself and Sam Bucky's babysitters the night he discovered Bucky considered himself their babysitter too. Unfortunately that was the night Broadway Backwards got hit by Hydra. The less said about that the better, but when the dust settled casualties were minimal, he had fewer bullets in his ass than he would have if Bucky hadn't snuck out of their apartment to tail them, and Bucky had his head together with Sirius and Sam about what a self-sacrificing asshole he was. Steve would gladly take that.

5)
Speculation flared when Sam and Bucky took their seats at Broadway Backwards sans Steve; it went positively nuclear when Steve appeared as a backup dancer for Sirius's rendition of "Bring On the Men." Sam was seen to quite firmly cross his legs. Bucky looked distinctly smug. Steve, distracted by the heat of his lover's gaze, missed a few steps and wound up seated where he should have been standing; Sirius, never missing a beat, simply straddled his knees and kept right on. All in all, a successful evening for everyone involved.
