Bucky: Sorry I’m late, I was doing things.

Yasmin: Hi, I’m ‘things’.

Don’t care if this is a hot take or controversial, it’s the truth: Tony calling Bucky “Manchurian Candidate” to his face - i.e. making a joke out of Bucky’s life-ruining trauma - was downright despicable.

Today on Captain America parallels that are probably unintentional and thus really fucking weird

[eclipsedrawsthings]

Out of context things to look forward to in chapter two of Turnabout Civil War:

“Maya, if you get arrested in Austria I swear—”

Someone gets a wad of tissues shoved in their face

Unnecessary… feelings

A fight about pineapple on pizza

Clint Barton

If you hate on Tony Stark or Iron Man you suck. You just suck. If it's constructive criticism of his character or his actions or morals that's different, but if you just hate him cause "he's selfish" or "he's not really a hero" or "he's the worst of the Avengers" then you suck. If not a hero, what is he? He didn't start off as a good guy, but he realizes what he did wrong and changes it, and he does it without completely changing who he is as a person.

Tony Stark may be selfish and an asshole, but that does not make him selfless. He literally sacrifices himself in Avengers, and its not because he thinks he can make it or because he wants attention. He just cares about everyone and the world. He has trust issues and he's worried about himself, but he's also so worried about everyone else. He cares so much for Pepper and Happy and all of the Avengers. He is just scared to express it because bad things tend to happen when he cares about people.

I understand the criticism of him in Civil War, mostly because of how he brings Peter in, but from his pov it's perfectly reasonable. He agrees to the Accords because he is full of guilt. He feels like if he and the other Avengers agree to it the world will be a safer and more just place. They'll have accountability. Honestly it makes perfect sense from a civilian point of view. I'm not saying it was the right call or that Steve was wrong, his pov was perfectly reasonable too, given his history. But then Steve left and took half of Tony's family with him. Then he sided with- for all Tony's seen- a terrorist and the very thing he's trying to stop. Then when Tony finally realizes he's in the wrong, he finds out that Bucky killed his parents (the fact that he was being controlled was irrelevant at that point) and Steve knew about it. Knew about it, talked to Tony several times, and didn't tell him. Tony reacted rashes, but he literally found out that his best friends best friend killed his parents.

The thing about Tony bringing Peter in and not telling him anything is totally reasonable. Peter was just a kid, I know Tony was desperate and that Peter was already fighting bad guys, but it was still a bad call. I do think that Peter was told more than what was shown in the movie, and that he would have agreed with Tony regardless.

Anyway, this was just a really long rant post because everyone hates on Tony or says that there was no way Civil War could be right on both sides. This is not an invitation to hate on Steve or anyone else. It's definitely understandable from both sides unless you Don't Want to see both sides.

Bucky: What the hell were you thinking?

Yasmin: I heard releasing birds at a wedding is romantic!

Bucky: You released OSTRICHES!

One of the things that pisses me off about how the Sokovia Accords were presented in Captain America Civil War is how much Ross is shifting from the government to The Avengers about collateral damage. He mentions The Battle of New York, where the US Government was trying to nuke the city which wouldn't even stop the invasion and Washington DC where again, The. Government. Was. Trying. To. Murder. Millions. Of. People. The collateral that The Avengers caused is OBJECTIVELY less than what would have happened if they weren't there. Also when he says "Do you know where Thor and Banner are right now? If i misplaced a couple 30 megaton nukes you'd bet there'd be consequences" Motherfucker you literally created The Abomination that destroyed Harlem and the Hulk had to fix it for you and what were the consequences? You became the secretary of state and then later the PRESIDENT. Literally fuck off with that

tony’s letter from steve at the end of civil war is rlly funny to me bc it’s kinda the equivalent of getting a 4 paragraph text message from a guy you’ve kinda been talking to where he’s just like “you made me realize i’m not over my ex, i’m sorry, i never meant to hurt you, i wish you the best in your future endeavors”

So, Tony agrees with the accords because he feels guilty about the kid who died in Sokovia (I’m aware this is an oversimplification), but has no issue pulling in 15ish year old Peter Parker.

And T’Challa agrees with the accords, but goes rouge to kill Bucky.

Make it make sense, y’all
