Things Tony Got In Civil War:

*adjusts glasses* I’m sorry, Mr. Evans, but it appears that your request to conclude your run as Steve Rogers has been denied due to *highlights portion of document* the lack of a legitimate Captain America 3 film. Please re-submit your request when said movie has been filmed and completed, thank you 👍🏻

There were times when I respected every pairing with Steve but some people in Steve/Bucky fandom made it impossible. Every pairing has its problems but they at least accept that Steve can have a character outside of romance. With stucky its impossible for Steve to be more then a horny teenager. No other motivation in his life - no freedom, no justice, no helping people, no real friendship. Everything in his life is about Bucky. Who could have thought that he was actually one of the greatest CB characters?

Okay but can we talk about the beautiful symmetry of the Captain America movies for a second

Steve picks up the shield and becomes Captain America because of Bucky

Steve lays down the shield and stops being Captain America because of Bucky

I know this is alot of music but each song inspired a chapter or something in the story so they are important. I will also be adding music as I find other songs that inspire me as I go along.

wow...

@MrCraigKyle: I took this shot for my daughter and it’s the coolest picture I’ve ever taken! #BadassLadiesOfMarvel

On Sharon Carter

First of all, ugh. Second, whyyyyyyy?

I am a huge fan of strong women being portrayed strong and independent in movies. Seriously, we need more of those women. What I absolutely hate is people believing a woman has to be a perfect know-it-all in order to be strong. Just, no. In writing, mainly fanfiction, this is called a “Mary Sue”. For those who don’t know, a Mary Sue is a character that is perfect. She knows everything, can do everything, is super brave and loved and wanted by literally everyone.

Now, the reason I’m putting this first is that so far I feel like Sharon Carter is going to be a Mary Sue. Not in the actual sense of course, because in fanfiction a Mary Sue is most of the time the author in a much more perfected version, but in a larger, a little modified sense.

Sharon’s been bugging me since her very first appearance in Return Of The First Avenger which is fascinating since she has really little screentime. So allow me to explain myself a little further.

As of now what we’ve seen of Sharon is:

her being super nice

apparently Nat approving of her since when on the Lemurian Star she asks Steve if maybe he wants to ask out the nurse who lives across the hall from him and at the end of the movie she asks Steve to call her because “she’s nice” (and honestly Nat is not exactly the person to approve of people easily)

her being super brave since she speaks up against Sitwell and demands to know why S.H.I.E.L.D. should be hunting Steve and later on she stands up against Brock Rumlow to stop the launch of the Helicarriers

her being a perfect shot when she practices shooting at the CIA shooting range

I know she didn’t have much screentime yet but everything we’ve seen so far puts her into a pretty perfect light. I’m also taking the one short moment from Civil War we’ve already seen into consideration where she apparently goes up against Bucky which is something no person in their right mind would do because HIGHLY TRAINED AND PROFESSIONAL KILLER.

This is a no-no in my eyes. It couldn’t have been that hard to just have her keep her mouth shut when Sitwell demands S.H.I.E.L.D. agents to hunt Captain America. It also wouldn’t have killed anyone to have her miss a few shots on that shooting range, she’s no Hawkeye after all.

As of now, she just seems too perfect in my eyes. I am of course always up for being proven wrong but everything just looks a little to peachy at the moment. A character with flaws who actually can’t do whatever he wants and get it right at the first try is much more interesting.

Something I’m also having a problem with: they seem to try to turn her into another Black Widow. Outfit-wise. When I looked at those new promo pictures I had to take a second look to realises I wasn’t looking at two Black Widows but in fact Natasha and Sharon. It looks a little like they took Nat’s outfit and photoshopped Sharon’s head on it. No. Just no. That’s not how we do it. If you want Sharon to be a super badass and respectable character make her a unique on and don’t copy something that’s already there.

But major difference character-wise: Nat has flaws. She struggles. Things go wrong for her. She has a heart-wrenching past, that thing with Bruce didn’t work out entirely as planned. She’s stubborn. She makes mistake. As far as we know Sharon is pretty perfect overall. Badass fighter, brave woman, she gets Captain America (come on, we can still turn this around and pretend it won’t and never will be a thing… please). Seems pretty great to me. But this is a character I don’t want to see. I want and need characters I can identify with, not a perfect Miss Plastic.

One more thing about this matter and then I shut up: Steve doesn’t need a love interest. Honestly. In my eyes it would be amazing to let a character like Steve Rogers stay single. For one because he doesn’t need it. Second, it would be amazingly representative. There are so many young people out there who still believe they need to be in a relationship to be happy or have some kind of worth. Seeing a man like Captain freaking America not be in a relationship would be incredibly reassuring and soothing.

I mean, just think about it. That man looks like a god and has a great personality (though even Captain America has his flaws). Everyone would expect him to be in a relationship. So take the chance, surprise everyone and let him stay single. Because yes, he’s basically perfect but that doesn’t mean everyone will immediately fall into his arms.

Okay, I think I’m done now. I’ll make an additional post if more comes to mind.

I agree. That’s exactly right. You can’t dismiss some character’s pain and trauma to ennoble your favorite. IMO its disgusting. But come on, Tony’s fans do it all the time! If it angers you all so much then stop doing it to other characters. Many times I’ve seen these completely dismissive posts about Steve, Natasha, Wanda, Bruce, etc and for some reason nobody reminded authors about human decency. I think it should be applied to every character not only Tony

I don't get why you baby Stark so much. So his father neglected him? He was too busy to tuck him in or hug him? Yeah that's shitty as fuck but Howard loved him in his own way. Clint Barton, abused by his own parents and then abused in the circus before left for dead. Steve Rogers, bullied and beaten his entire life pre serum, sick constantly and only family his best friend who he LOST. Natasha, I don't think I need to elaborate on her past.. Wanda&Pietro, fuck of their story isn't awful.

Wow.

So by your line of reasoning, only the Avenger who had the worst childhood is worthy of love and/or respect. I guess that means Bucky isn’t worthy, since his childhood was the best out of all of everyone. But no - in your eyes, Tony is the only one whose abuse can be excused.

Well let me tell you something, anon. I am fucking appalled by the fact that you are literally excusing child abuse by saying that “his father loved him in his own way,“. As if that makes it okay. There is no excuse for child abuse. Ever. Period. It doesn’t matter if it’s emotional neglect or physical abuse or whatever, there. is. no. excuse.

In addition, abuse, especially child abuse, is not a competition and I can’t even put into words how upset it makes me that you’re implying that Tony is not worthy of being “babied” just because you think his abuse wasn’t as bad as the rest of the team. As though there is some sort of ruler by which we measure abuse, and Tony isn’t making the cut.

Finally, I’m gonna let you in on a secret. Fandom is a place where everyone gets to like whoever they want to like. I will “baby” Tony as much as I damn well want to, and you can fuck right off.

Wow. So cool
