Marvel Prompts (Brothers addition)
I've been wanting to write this for a little while, but I wanted to do some rewatching and research on the topic again.
This is my view on the topic of who was right, and who was wrong.
My answer? They were both right.
Let me explain:
Tony, after all the damage done that leads to this conflict, wants and does sign the accords. He wants the Avengers to be held accountable for the damages they cause and to have some restrictions so supers can't do anything they want willy nilly. He has the point here. People need rules and structure to avoid anarchy and chaos, to avoid things just ending up a mess.
Steve didn't want to sign the accords because his point was that the avengers couldn't be held down waiting for the green light, not when lives were at stake. His argument is made further when you take in the question of: 'who could actually hold this power?' Hydra invaded SHEILD, the government isn't safe either, and lord knows how corrupt politics are anyway. Hell, after Thanos snapped the government had to go make a consensus. Nobody could hold the avengers when lives were on the line.
Steve and Tony are both right. But they end up also being wrong too.
Tony is blinded by his overwhelming guilt at this point. After all he lost, the new trauma, and dealing with everything, Tony is hyper focused on redemption here. He wants to make up for the things he did, for the people lost in the cross fire. But he ends up not seeing the issues presented to him about signing the accords.
Signing the accords is a problem because, like I talked about with Steve's point, no one can simply have a leash on the heros. If they have to wait then people die, if they are leashed then Hydra would have been pulling the strings. Hydra invaded SHEILD and the government, if they pulled the strings then it's over. Not to mention that the person pushing the accords is General Ross, the man who hunted down Bruce to use him- to make the super soldier serum. General Ross is not an ally, he is a threat.
Steve was also wrong too. Avengers can't have full freedom to do whatever they please. Having powers being used recklessly and causing unnecessary damages to surroundings isn't a good thing. It's a risk to the people he wants to protect.
So Both are right and wrong. Mainly cause this conflict is complex, when you see the risks and factors of why things couldn't work one way or the other. But also remember, this is a conflict created by design too. Zemo had a part to play in this issue. Playing the game just right that would cause the leaders of the avengers to reach a boiling point on the argument that they split.
What I personally feel is that because of the trauma, pain, and exhaustion the two of them were dealing with when the accords were just presented that they were even in a good healthy mindset to even begin dealing with any of it. Both were stressed, dealing with issues on all sides, and couldn't see past the black and white view of absolutes. Steve and Tony were stuck on a chest board as pawns and both were fighting to win. Only we know how this ends up going.
I am Team Captain America AND Team Iron Man.
Cause in the end they are still a team, and I don't pick sides of my team- I choose all of them.
As an added part to this post I wanted to share my thoughts on Steve lying to Tony about his parents. It was wrong and unjustified, yes but I'm not talking about that. That is a simple fact. I want to explain my view on Steve's reasoning for this decision: He wanted to protect both friends of his. He wanted to protect Bucky cause he was brainwashed and innocent, he didn't want him hurt or kill for it. He wanted to protect Tony cause already he was traumatized, beaten, and utterly exhausted from so much happening. He didn't want Tony to have another thing on his mind that could potentially cause him to snap a part.
In the end it didn't matter, Tony finds out and everything falls from there. Steve here, from my pov, is the people who have the purest intentions and want the best for us, but end up making decisions that only harm us in the end unintentionally. When we make choice that we think help, but don't.
In conclusion: Do I think one or the other is wrong? No, both are right and wrong for their own reasons- making the answer a more complicated discussion.
Do I think Steve or Tony deserves the bashing they get from either side of the conflict? No. They are fundamentally human characters who wanted to do the right thing but were blinded by their own issues and too twisted and turned to properly communicate things.
Should either one be hated for these choices they made? No. They made the choice they did but in the end worked to fix what had been ripped apart, doing their best to mend that scar. They were adults about it and made up while finally having a more healthier mental state to deal with everything.
Are both still my favorite characters and ship? Fuck yes.
(Loki is sitting on the floor of the common room facing the window, deep in concentration. Constantly fidgeting around, scratching at his arm absent mindedly. Tony and Clint walk into the room.)
Tony:Lokes? What are you doing on the floor?
(Loki didn't answer, not even appearing to hear Tony at all. Sharing a look with Clint he tries once more. Still, Loki doesn't answer. Clint walked carefully into Loki's field of vision before getting closer, then he gently taps on the mage when he still doesn't seem to notice him. Loki startles.)
Clint: Sorry! Sorry, didn't mean to make you jump. Just wanted to know if your okay?
Loki: *Confused* I... I am fine, really. But what made you think I wasn't?
Tony: *Walking over* You were staring out the window at nothing with a look. We thought you had something on your mind that was bothering you.
(Loki paused, considered it, then blushed slightly in embarrassment.)
Loki: *voice slightly quieter* I was trying to remember what I forgot, that I was supposed to remember, but I can't remember. My head feels... Full. Yet, it feels full but also feels like it's empty. Different things seem to be too much right now, things are louder without any logical reason, and I just can't seem to start any of my tasks. I can barely focus on getting these words out coherently.
(Clint and Tony turned to one another, a rapid and clear conversation passing within seconds by mere eye contact. Tony faces Loki and asks him a question.)
Tony: Loki, I think I might have a clue what is wrong but I need to ask what might seem to be a random question. Is it ever hard for you to sit completely still? Like, without fidgeting at all?
Loki: *head tilt* People can actually sit like that?
(Tony and Clint recommend Loki to take a few tests in order to confirm their suspicions. It didn't take much to confirm that Loki in fact had ADHD like them.)
(Finding out he had ADHD, Loki found a few answers for things he would do in the past. The emotional dysregulation, anger issues, body dysmorphia, and ect, made a lot of Loki's past more easier to understand why he did things the way he did. It also probably didn't help that his family was already dysfunctional as it was.)
Loki:... Up side is, I now know I have potentially MORE power if I am able to manage my disorder! I maybe unstoppable now! Villains shall face my fury!!!!
I haven't been on Tumblr often enough due to life problems, but now that I am back let's celebrate our pride!!!!

Have you ever watched the whole Total Drama series?
I have watched all of Total Drama Island to All-stars, but after that I had hard time finding the rest of the episodes to watch, mostly cause I couldn't find a platform to watch it on and because I often for get the name of the sixth season. I have watched the seventh season, and seen episodes of the sixth, but I genuinely don't remember if I ever completely watched all of them. I am waiting for the 2023 reboot to come out in the US so I haven't watched that either.
So yeah, I don't think I've seen all of the series but I have seen a majority of it. I have to rewatch some episodes since it's been a while though.
The original hexsquad (plus Eda of course, and Minus Odalia) :,)
Man I love this image sm
1- Aladors closer to Darius (like, their almost linking arms) than Odalia. They so dated before she got involved
2- Raine is such such shortie!!!! Even if their crouched down a little
3- Nothing special to point out I just love Bump
So...
How would you guys like it if I posted things like fanfiction prompts or talked about my favorite ships here that I like?
I'm not opposed to it and would find it rather cathartic to put my thoughts and joy on things I like here...
I'ma do it anyway!
Another marvel prompt, let's go!
Prompt: Bruce has agreed to go to a small party/gala of fellow scientists and medical professionals gathering to talk about their respective fields of work. As he heads to grab a drink, thankful of tony for having nonalcoholic options available here, he noticed Tony at the bar. He's chatting with someone unfamiliar, laughing and joking, then takes a sip of his drink. A drink that the man had spike, a second ago when Tony took his eyes of him for a mer moment.
Bruce is tense now, realizing that Tony has been drugged. He could see tony becoming more sluggish. With calm and casual movement, he tries to send an sos text to Steve or Natasha (Your choice) before walking over to them.
Able to talk the man into taking Tony home, he quickly tries to escape with Tony. Then Hydra bust down the doors. Now Bruce has to make a choice of letting the hulk out or waiting for back up.
I'll let you decide his choice, as well if you make this Platonic Science Bros or Science Boyfriends. But it must end with Bruce getting Tony safely home, not dead. Feel free to kill any of the gala people, Hydra goons, and or just really bruise and blood the precious boys. Also add as much angst as you please, team flash backs to torture or abuse of some kind- go goddamn wild, or just some really depressing insecurities. Anything goes except major character death. Have fun!
Has anyone, who is lesbian, figure out their sexuallity by unconsciously trying to make other girls jealous of your so called ‘crush’? Because I remember clear as day my first time ‘falling’ for a guy only to brag trying to get others jealous of him catching my attention. Just me or wut?
I'm out, I'm proud, and adore Marvel Stuff! They/Them pronouns! Ask me anything, I don't mind!
