#AA and other canons deserve their own list so maybe look at for that at some point? :)

[turrondeluxe]

Watched the movie today and all I could think about was this. (So spoilers but I’ll try to keep it vague)

Miguel seems to be looking for someone to blame. Someone he can take out and kill to make him finally feel like this wasn’t because of him. Some thing. Anything. To make him feel deserving again. He needs to take out all of these non canon things and people, to fix everything to make him feel better. Miles just happened to me the next thing on his list. Idk maybe I’m over analyzing. Sry about rambling your really cool. Hopefully this doesn’t sound out of character

ALSO I LOVE YOUR ART OF HIM and Mikey. I wanted to tell you cause I wanted to know your ideas and opinions (and your just cool so yeah) I’m rambling again..anyway byeeee

AA THANK YOU SM 🥰 AND NO NO WAIT. YOURE SO RIGHT I LOVE WHEN PEOPLE ANALYZE MIGUEL AS A CHARACTER BECAUSE HES SOO INTERESTING.

talking more abt him under the read more (spoilers!)

I think so too!!! Miguel is definitely Extremely guilt ridden by making a whole universe get destroyed because of him (also adding a parent grief depression to the mix). And we can totally see how he actually gets out of his way completely to help by the sheer fact that Miguel is the one who created the spidey society in the first place. He does that out of sheer guilt.

Miguel doesn't want anyone going through what he went trough if he can help it, because he Knows what someone would live trough if they are the sole reason a whole universe perishes because of them. And that's where the problem arises.

The problem is that everyone in there, Miguel included, have all grown emotionally numb to their own trauma and grief.

After seeing the pattern of All spideys losing someone beloved and important over and over and over again countless of times it just kind of makes it seem like that's something that Has to happen. Right?

So until then (before Miles appears where he shouldn't be) everything as it is works, because Miguel hasn't actually met with anyone that came close to what he did. He might be aware of other universes being in jeopardy and maybe even disappear completely but he's still disconnected from it because he decides which problems to intervene.

Until Miles appears out of nowhere in front of him. And I just Know he literally saw himself in Miles. He saw Miles being determined to stop how things Should go. He's seeing himself being selfish again right in front of him. So he decides to take it all out on Miles. All the blame and guilt and grief he feels about himself and how unfair it all is, he took it all out on Miles and blamed him for it.

Because there's truly no one else to blame but himself, but I think he's aware of that. And he doesn't want to forgive himself. at least not yet?

Cap-Ironman Rec Week 2020 (Thursday)

Tell-All Thursday, June 18th: Tell us about your highlights of 2012 or your favourite moments of canon, and share why you love Steve/Tony! for @cap-ironman​‘s Rec Week.

My favorite MCU Steve/Tony moments: If I went through all of my favorite moments, this list would probably be novel-length - here are a few to start with for MCU Steve/Tony, in chronological order.

1. Steve and Tony’s conversation about Coulson in The Avengers

This is the first time we get to see Steve and Tony open up to each other a little bit, and we get to see more of their give and take, how they make a good team in terms of strategy and discussion. I love it when they communicate - it’s an understated scene, but a great one.

2. Steve’s smile at the end of The Avengers

AKA the first moment I was lost to Steve/Tony, forevermore. Seriously, this smile changed my life. I saw this and my brain went HE’S IN LOVE (I was right.)

3. Steve’s smile at Tony’s antics in AOU

Can you tell I have a thing for Steve smiling at Tony? He looks so damn fond in this scene, I’ll never be over it. 

4. Steve and Tony (and Thor) discussing Mjolnir at the end of AOU

I get really emotional whenever I see gifsets of this scene around tumblr because it captured the banter-y “finish each other’s sentences” side of Steve/Tony that I love AND WE DESERVED A WHOLE MOVIE OF IT (hell, a whole MCU).

5. Steve and Tony’s conference room conversation in CA:CW

So many things get to me about this scene: Tony knowing Steve well enough to say “no, you don’t” about turning away from a problem, Steve’s agreement (and that smile, god), Tony saying he doesn’t want to see Steve gone right after saying that sometimes he wants to punch him in his perfect teeth... they all show a kind of intimacy that isn’t exactly easy, but it’s definitely there.

6. Tony reading Steve’s letter at the end of CA:CW

While I have my issues with the content of Steve’s letter at the end of CA:CW, the sight of the envelope with Tony’s name written on it in Steve’s handwriting just does something to me, I can’t help the feelings. (Tony reading the letter in Steve’s study at the Compound deserves extra bonus points for the angst.)

7. Tony struggling over calling Steve with the flip-phone at the start of IW

I love that when Bruce urges Tony to call Steve, his first reaction is to say “it’s not that easy.” And why isn’t it easy? Because there’s just so much between them, good, bad and downright ugly, all those feelings and history. And yet Tony carries the flip-phone on his person even while out jogging. 👀

8. Steve’s mention of “home” in IW

I will never be convinced that he isn’t thinking of Tony in this scene (especially since at this point he has no idea if Tony’s alive or gone). 

9. Steve running to help Tony off the spaceship in Endgame, the first time they’ve seen each other in two years

The first time I saw Endgame in theatres, I seriously thought this scene was straight of a fanfic-like dream: the running, Steve reaching out to steady Tony, their first conversation after two years apart... amazing.

10. Their conversation at the lakehouse (and the elbow touch!!) in Endgame

I’ve ranted about this so many times on Twitter but this scene never fails to get me - Steve reaching out and grasping Tony’s elbow, probably half-expecting Tony to flinch away from his touch but Tony doesn’t, and there’s a gentleness in their interactions with each other that was very much absent the last time we see them onscreen together (Tony yelling at Steve at the Compound).

11. “You trust me?” “I do.”

I know most people argued that Steve should have been the one to ask “do you trust me?” but I remain convinced that Tony was a perfect choice - the mere fact of him reaching out to ask after everything that’s happened between them shows that he does trust Steve again, and Steve’s steady and immediate “I do” gets me every single damn time.

12. Captain Stevens and Dr. Potts on their solo mission to get the stones in 1970.

Steve and Tony working together on a solo mission, sharing (1) braincell and completely failing at being subtle, I love it so, so much. (Plus it’s inspired so much amazing fic and fanart, I couldn’t not include them on the list).

Bonus moments:

Steve and Tony working together to fix the Engines in The Avengers

Tony reaching for Steve in his vision of doom in AOU

“You're gonna turn Barnes over, you're gonna come with us. NOW! Because it's us!”

“Earth just lost her best defender.”

Tony slamming his arc reactor into Steve’s hand during the screaming match

“Turns out, resentment is corrosive, and I hate it.” “Me too.” and the return of Steve’s shield

“Uh, Mr. Rogers. I almost forgot that that suit did nothing for your ass.” “No one asked you to look, Tony.”

... and so many more 💕

To sum up, MCU Steve/Tony are two sides of the same coin, and they always be my #1 otp of all time.

Check out my tag for previous years’ rec lists, and the recs from this week so far.

Sholmes crashes your dates

his bromance with Kazuma sometimes drops the "b"

hop into that time machine and date Ryu's ass, but be prepared to deal with period-appropriate homoeroticism and misogyny lol

Extra little shout out to Kazuma Asogi for that one time where he was a defense lawyer for, like, an hour and a half and somehow managed to cram 50 of the horniest one-liners in the game in that very limited time. Date him.
