Who Waked the Giant that Napped (in America)

"Oh, fuck you."

Maybe it was how Tony said it; the effervescent anger, the way he spat the fuck out across the room. Steve had to giggle.

"Yeah, laugh it up! I died. I think I have a right to be forgotten."

"It's good to see you, too."

"No." Tony shook his head. He was wearing, Steve noticed, a sweaty tank-top and a pair of boxers with a suspicious hole. "I died so you could be with Bucky. So go... buck it up."

"You died for everyone."

"Screw everyone." His voice shook. His eyes pleaded.

"Can I start with you?"

I honestly expected that last sentence (or a similar one) after the first one :D I love these types of dialogues.

Pst: It's "Woke" not "Waked"

Thank you, I'm glad you liked

You'd think so, wouldn't you! But nope - those are the lyrics to Star Spangled Man: https://marvelcinematicuniverse.fandom.com/wiki/Star_Spangled_Man

I'm thinking maybe it's intentional. :)

Well, I'd argue in that case "waked" is not synonymous to "woke/woken" - because that would make no sense in the context (how exactly did CA wake the giant who attacks? - it's more likely that he "keeps watch over" said giant...) which in the case of your paraphrase seems odd ;) But sure, it's definitely intentional and it might be an Americanism that's been wrong for so long it's became right.
