[florida3exclamationpoints]

Well DEKE. We just wanted PIE.

[odorareicons]

[cometsandstardust]

I’m rewatching Agents of Shield and here is a (final) list of things I genuinely forgot happened:

(and also little things i enjoy)

season seven:

- deke printed out sheriff stars

- “i just can’t seem to hold down a husband as they all just turn up with broken ribs when they give me lip” - daisy

- coulson learned about the speakeasy in a first year history course at the academy

- the first thing may says after finding out she’s in 1931, was “i’m hungry”

- “i’m a doctor, not a dame” “i’m a biochemist not a bird” fucking icon jemma simmons

- deke tells freddy that he invented the walkie-talkie

- “agent may, if i may?” enoch is so funny

- …may says she doesn’t feel anything when she wakes up, even though her empathy-ability is already present (though no one knows it yet). she wakes up and feels nothing because the only other person there is enoch, who isn’t human, and therefore doesn’t feel anything, at least not the way we do

- she also talks in a very-enoch like connotation during these scenes (same sort of lilt in her voice)

- they brought koenig onboard the zephyr and he said “excuse me if i’m not impressed” and then immediately lost his shit. he also called enoch a robot, and enoch made a very “bitch, please” face

- freddy shot koenig in the shoulder

- enoch is shown to be working as a bartender at the end of s7ep2 for koenig

- the zephyr scared two teenagers half to death when they got to the fifties

- younger daisy (aka skye ig) believed that area 51 was controlled by shield and was proven right

- the first time may showed signs of her empathy besides the monotone killer mood was when trying to single out the chronicom starting up helius and she basically had a panic attack

- also the chronicom they’re chasing has a very dottie underwood like aesthetic (ofc i’m referencing agent carter when my boy sousa is back)

- overriding the system knocked out the two chronicoms and coulson.

- the camera zoomed in on coulson’s eye and showed a circuit flickering

- the reason s7ep4 is in black and white is because of a malfunction in the wires

- sousa was considered the first fallen soldier of shield

- sousa called howard a pompous ass (he’s right and he should say it)

- mack compared the effect of sousa’s death on shield to the effect of coulson’s to the avengers

- sousa stole a motorcycle from the zephyr

- deke said he wrote the song “don’t you (forget about me)”

- he also name drops daisy in his own lyrics

- coulson’s in a tv

- sybil’s “dumb bot” acts just like a dalek for a sec

- may and yoyo sparred to try and trigger yoyo’s powers into working again

- yo-yo got stuck on the quinjet at the beginning of each loop

- in several loops, mack gets blinded by a radiation flare

- deke gives the distance from the center of the time storm in kilometers, which i initially thought was strange cause y’know american, but then i realized that deke literally grew up in space and that fitz-simmons basically created all the tech/software on board so yeah metric system

- daisy proved to simmons that she was in a loop with the fake word: “phlebotinum”

- when trying to remove the implant, on the first two tries, a lethal gas filled the room killing simmons (and the second time, daisy)

- in one loop, sousa grabbed the machine to remove the implant from the drawer instead of daisy or simmons and started coughing up blood

- also he literally grabbed it so that if something went wrong daisy wouldn’t die and lose her memories of the time loop

- may initially didn’t want to tell kora about jiaying but then brought her to see her body

- kora tried to help her mother heal by giving her energy

- simmons started forgetting fitz after malick put her in the memory machine

Worthy (2015) | Chapter 3, "Chosen"

Disappearing sporadically in public spaces quickly becomes Cora Dempsey's least concerning problem when suddenly she captures the attention of the forming Avengers Initiative, the World Security Council, and Asgard's fallen prince all in one week. And the universe is only just getting started with her.

Worthy is a slow-burn SFW Marvelverse (films) romance between Loki and a female OC. For additional details on what canon is used, see the Prologue post.

Summary: Cora disappears again, this time with some help. The Initiative operatives are at a loose end again, but Clint’s perceptiveness has gained them some extra information. Cora confronts her captor and learns a few things about the hammer.

Pairing: Loki x Fem!OC

Warnings: Superhero movie levels of action; kidnapping; Loki chokes Cora to render her unconscious just prior to the kidnapping bit

Word Count: 2.4k

Cora panted from her run, but didn't back down from the men who had pursued her, and who were now regarding her with more than just uncertainty. At least, the bowman was; she couldn't see Tony Stark's expression behind the iconic mask and Steve was too deeply plastered behind him in the rock at the moment for her to even guess at what he might be thinking.

She watched Tony peel himself from his imprint before stumbling forward, sparking a bit at the joints. "Is… Ugh," he clutched his head before shaking it quickly. "Is she allowed to do that?"

Clint could hear Coulson asking questions in his ear and then Fury loudly demanding what the hell was going on, but he ignored it, simply in a state of shock. "This isn't possible…"

He had a feeling Steve was unconscious from the hit he'd taken and now with the mythological hammer no longer on their side, they were severely outnumbered. Clint was well aware that if it had knocked Captain America out cold, it'd render him comatose at best.

Cora was shaking slightly, afraid the nicer agent, Steve, might've been severely injured or even killed from impact. Sick to her stomach, she started to step forward, but froze when she felt a change in the air; the temperature had dropped by a few degrees and an unearthly stillness swept over the immediate area. The bowman seemed to notice it, too; he looked around warily and reached back for one of his arrows. Or maybe he'd just opted to kill her.

Before either of them could figure out what exactly the next course of action would be, Cora sensed someone nearby, the strange presence ambiguous and diffused around the crater before it suddenly concentrated behind her and she felt a pair of steely arms haul her back against an equally hard body, the both of them fading out into limbo before she could muster an open reaction.

A large hand moved up to press to her mouth before she could loose the yelp of distress that hitched in her throat. She heard a small "hm" of contemplation above her head before she was simply tugged off her feet despite her struggling, waltzed out of the crater, and successfully separated from the SHIELD operatives. But at what cost?

She growled testily and tried to swing the hammer back at him, but he kept her arms held tightly down. "Sleep," he muttered frustratedly when she didn't stop making things just a little more difficult for him, and he cut off her airways just enough that she passed out in his hold. "So fragile," he noted with open disgust before tying the leather loop at the base of the hammer around her wrist and tossing her over his shoulder.

Back at the crater, Clint blinked in disbelief. Had she done her trick again? No, there had been someone else there. Very briefly. She'd looked too shocked to have done it herself and she'd skidded backward just before disappearing.

Somewhere through the nearly closed portal in the clouds, Thor watched Clint approach the spot where Cora had been just a moment before, a look of shock on his own face; not because she'd been able to lift the hammer only he, his father, and the blacksmiths who had forged it had ever been able to move, but because of the aura that had flooded the area just before she'd vanished.

"I know that magic," he murmured under his breath, still shreds of equal parts hope and dread on his face as he turned away from the opening that finally snapped shut behind him, striding past Heimdall's knowing gaze and back toward the palace.

Clint frowned faintly, but shook his head, putting the arrow he'd extracted back in his quiver before tapping the bud in his ear. "Still there, Phil?"

"Yes, but could you not smack the earpiece? Sends a lot of feedback my way."

Clint stopped, glancing toward the sky to see that the wormhole had closed. Before Coulson could ask, Clint murmured honestly, "I don't know what the hell is going on, all I can report is that we lost her again."

"What happened?" he asked and it sounded as if Fury had asked the same question in unison, which drew a sigh from Agent Barton's lungs.

"I think… I think that would be best explained once we get back to headquarters, sir." Hearing a groan from the indent in the rock, Clint walked over and peered in. "Agent Rogers, report?"

"I'm fine," Steve replied with a small wince as he started to make his way out of the dry ground. "I would've been fine anyway, but this took most of the impact." He tapped his shield, which was still positioned across his back before he took a look around. "So, she's gone?"

"Yeah," Clint said, frowning as he heard Fury now demanding how in the world Steve had even possibly been less than all right, only with a much more colorful variation of word choice. He wasn't surprised; the iconic hero was amped up with all the strength, agility, and endurance a non-mutated human body could muster; he wasn't someone who could be taken down by just anybody. "As I said, we'll explain everything once we're back."

He started to ask Tony if he was good to go, but realized he'd already shot off, going high into the air and glancing down at the surrounding area before coming back down outside the crater and murmuring, "Take back the suit, JARVIS." The suit started to shift away from his form before clustering and hurtling upward, then backtracking to where it'd come from earlier. Tony looked a bit shaken up, a bit pissed, too, but no worse for wear. He started walking back toward town, leaving Steve and Clint to follow.

Once the two had gotten out of the crater and glanced back over the sheer size of it a moment, Steve looked at Tony, who was about ten yards ahead of them. "So we ended up with a lot of hurt pride and no girl. What even happened back there?"

"Know much about Norse mythology?"

Steve looked thoroughly perplexed by that as he and Clint continued walking back toward Clarkdale's outskirts. "Um… No, I guess I don't."

Clint gave a very half-hearted smirk before noting, "Well, you will."

When Cora slowly resurfaced into consciousness, she felt strangely airborne with a solid pressure against her belly, soon realizing the heat in her head was because she was hanging upside down. She gave a small grunt and weakly brought her untethered fist down on his back just before she felt his hold shift, which was the only warning she got before she was spilled to the ground, wincing as already-sore limbs were bruised. The hammer tied to her arm hit the floor with a metallic thud and she looked at it with wide, startled eyes, the ancient etchings across the head glinting in the sparse sunlight.

Swallowing against a dry throat, Cora glanced up, only half expecting to see the desert crater around her again. She wondered if maybe they'd had some covert operative sneak up on her and get her when she wasn't looking or something, but she hadn't seen anyone else with them and she certainly wasn't where she'd been before. Her eyes fell upon concrete walls and floors, along with shelves of boxes and assorted baubles. They appeared to be in some kind of warehouse and—by the amount of dust littering the contents—she doubted anyone had been there in a long time.

"What are you?"

She tensed, her jaw taut with apprehension as she slowly turned to look at who had spoken: a man of great height with black hair barely touching his broad shoulders and uniquely chiseled features housing eyes the color of vivid pines. He wore strange clothes of emerald and black with what looked like an armored exterior, but that was the least of her concern. Cora's brow creased a little in regard to his offhand question. "Excuse me?"

"I said," the man murmured with his nonexistent patience swiftly decreasing as he looked down his nose at her. "What. Are. You."

"I'm tired. And hungry. And all kinds of things, all leaning toward pissed," she noted with impatience of her own as she glared up at him, her anger renewing her bravery.

"'Pissed'?"

"Mad."

A fissure formed between his own brows at what he saw as impertinence, but he did look down at her with slightly altered consideration. "And which one of those has made it possible for you to wield that hammer?"

"I'd place my bets on the anger," she noted and he seemed to find that amusing in a way not hedged in any way toward humor; he was sardonic with every move and every quirk of his smirking mouth.

"Think you that you have a god's wrath?" he whispered daringly and for the first time she noticed that his crossed arms bore hands clenched into fists. She took that into account as she remained silent. "For that equivalent alone could only reach this weapon's worth, now I will ask one last time: what are you?"

"A… A Californian?"

He frowned, not having expected that. "There is no such realm."

"It's a state. In the US. Here."

He paused heavily, his eyes narrowing before he murmured, "You…are mortal."

"Uhm, yes?"

There was a pause before he scoffed softly and shook his head. "A mortal using… There must be a mistake." The man leaned forward and reached a pale hand toward Cora's, which rested on the hammer.

"No way," Cora muttered and she tugged it away from his reach, turning around and scrambling back a few paces now that her instincts had overridden the shock. "How did I get here and who are you?"

"Stay still or let go of the relic," he growled quietly as he advanced on her.

"Answer my damn questions!" she retorted, getting up and positioning the weapon, ready to swing it if she had to.

He paused and seemed to weigh his options with narrowed eyes holding glimmers of hurt pride and aggravation as the looked between her and the hammer in question. "I will make you a deal. I will answer the questions you've already presented… And you let me see that. Agreed?" Cora considered this very uncertainly, but before she could agree or attempt to disagree, he added, "I do not intend to use it on you. It is a simple test."

Cora pursed her lips and muttered, "Start talking."

He could do little to hide the fury that seemed to roil in him, but made good on his word. "You are here," he gritted softly, "because I brought you here."

"Where is 'here'?"

"That is not of importance and not something you asked."

Cora squinted suspiciously and, after a moment, murmured, "You don't even know where we are, do you?"

He glared at her before admitting, "I have not been to this realm more than a couple of times before."

"Why is everything a 'realm' with you?" Cora asked, slightly relaxing her stance as she realized he didn't seem to be threatening her. At least, not at the moment. His height was a bit intimidating for her though; she was used to being amongst the tallest in the room.

"Everything is a realm, mortal," he pointed out as if she were stupid before presenting his hand for the hammer.

Cora looked at it before asking warily, "What exactly is your test…?"

"We shall both find out once you hold up your end of the bargain," he noted, not looking terribly excited over what might follow. It seemed to be more of a confirmation of something he already knew.

Against her much better judgment, Cora loosed the knot of the cord around her wrist and angled the handle toward him, releasing her hold upon the hammer once he had a grip on it. To her utter shock, the muscular man in front of her plummeted to bend toward the ground, the hammer digging into the dirt with his fingers still latched around it.

"As I said," he gritted, giving it a good pull before giving up. It hadn't even twitched, even with as much force as he'd put upon it just then.

"What…," Cora murmured with wide eyes. "What did you do?"

"It is nothing I did," he snapped as he straightened back up and rubbed a tiny amount of dust off his hands, which had risen up with the hammer's rejection. "Now pick it up."

"If you can't even manage it, how do you—"

"You could before," he interrupted. "So do it again."

Cora gave the hammer a doubtful glance before bending down and taking the handle, pulling up with all her might only to nearly fall on her ass when it came up as reasonably as the first time she'd lifted it. She caught herself on the wall behind her, but barely, and looked down at the hammer with a bewildered expression. "But…"

"Just as I expected," he murmured more to himself than to her with a look of pure exasperation and jealousy, as if whatever was going on was extremely ironic.

"Why is… I sound crazy, but why is it doing that?"

The man looked at her fleetingly, seeming to measure her up again before he turned his back to her. "Stay here."

"Hey, wait! I don't even know where 'here' is and you want me to just—"

He didn't look back at her, just kept moving, his cloak fluttering faintly. "You will stay here, as I said. Stray and I will only bring you back."

"Why?" Cora demanded.

"Because, mortal, as trifling as it is, I can use this oddity of yours to my advantage," he told her. "And in turn, those agents will have lost your scent. Doesn't that sound preferable?"

Cora said nothing for a moment until she saw him start to fade out. She'd not been sure earlier if it had been her power that had pulled them from visual existence, but now she was certain that he'd been the one to make them disappear, which caused even more questions to rise up to her lips. Maybe he knew a way she could manage her power, if that's what it was. "My name isn't 'mortal,' it's Cora. And you never answered my other question."

Once more, his bored, condescending eyes slanted down to her, and he only said, "I am Loki, of Asgard," before disappearing into thin air.

Next chapter: Chapter 4, "The Lightning & the Storm"

[lieutenant-teach]

Who is more villainous – Anakin Skywalker\Darth Vader or MCU!Loki?

There’re two trends in Marvel and Star Wars media – ‘Loki is such a bad person, worst of all’ and ‘Anakin never did anything wrong, he was the best Jedi ever’. Both have sad and tragic backstories, both turn bad, both iconic villains. So I decided to have my own small investigation – is Disney justified in their attitude?

What are Loki’s crimes?

1.Setting up his brother (coronation situation) – ‘to delay his idiotic rule for a while longer’, as Thor obviously wasn’t ready. Evidence from the movie show that he didn’t even want them to go down to Jotunheim – he expected to be stopped by Heimdall and even sent for a guard to tell Odin about their departure [1 - 4.12]. For the sake of ‘Loki making bad decisions’ – count.

2. Usurped the throne – no! Frigga gave it to him [2]. Don’t count.  

3. Almost killing Thor – frankly, when he gives Thor a slap with the Destroyer, it looked as if he wasn’t trying to actively kill him, more like lashed out. Still, count.

4. Killing Laufey, his biological father – count.

5. Attempted genocide of the Jotuns – * sarcasm* nevermind that he was doing exactly the same thing as Odin (slow murder is still murder. I’d say Loki even shows more mercy – at least he’d kill quickly, not slowly making the planet decay for a thousand years.). Not trying to say the idea was good, just pointing out the hypocrisy in- and out-universe. Count.

6. New York – in ‘Captain America: Civil War’ we learn that 74 people were lost during the invasion. ‘80 people in two days’ per Natasha are mostly on Fury – Loki had no way of knowing the place would be destroyed. It’s clear from the movie that the facility was already unstable due to tinkering with the Tesseract. Why didn’t Fury stop the experiments and start evacuating people? And the most important factor – mind influence [3, also], though it’s unclear to what extent, and coercion. For the sake of ‘Loki killed innocent people’ – count 154 ( + Coulson, but looking at 7 seasons of ‘Agents of SHIELD’, I find it hard to count him in.).

7. ‘Loki killed his mother’ bullshit – all he did was lead the Kurse out of the prison a little bit faster. Anyway Malekith already knew where the Aether was, it was him who killed her. Why not blame Thor or Odin with the same vigor as Loki? So, don’t count.

8. Loki usurped the throne – he offered Thor the throne, Thor refused [4]. Of course, he lied to Thor pretending to be Odin. I’ll give it half a count.

From the moment Taika Waititi came, it becomes hard to count, as he never cared about canonical portrayal of characters and actively hated Asgard [5]. Both Loki and Thor are absolutely different from as they were shown in pervious installments. I cannot value the movie where a) the director never watched any of previous films and b) improvised 80% of the movie [6]. But to see the full picture of Original Loki (however askew it becomes from this moment), I’ll be brief.

9. Loki being a bad king – paying attention to arts and giving freedom of self-governing to other planets is bad? Don’t count. And yes, Ragnarok is on Odin – Loki had no way of knowing about it, just as anyone else except Odin himself.

10. Loki betraying Thor all the time – this was improvised, such as ‘the snake story’ and ‘obedience disk’ moment [7], thus can’t be seen as direct continuation of character consistency. Don’t count.

I’m absolutely going to ignore whatever crap Michael Waldron did in the Loki series. I refuse to take into consideration the writing of a person who a) never watched an ounce of Loki-related media and b) just rehashed his own original script [8]. And anyway, he’s a Variant!Loki, not OG!Loki, they’re different people.

Sum up: kind of set up his brother, almost killed abovementioned brother, killed his biological father, attempted genocide, killed 154 people, kind of took the throne.

What are Darth Vader’s crimes? (I count everything that he’d done while he was still Anakin. No matter how Disney tries to pretend, Anakin IS Vader, not two separate entities [1].)

1.Slaughter of the whole Tusken camp, including women and children. Yes, they killed his mother. No, still murder. Count.

2. Torture of a prisoner in ‘The Clone Wars’ s2 ep.8. Good guys don’t torture anyone (yes, looking at you, TR!Thor). [Frankly, if we speak about TCW, the situation is a little bit difficult, because war. I pointed out the torture moment, because you can’t claim the character is perfectly good if he knowingly tortured someone with the Empire’s melody in the background.] Count.

3. Beating up his wife’s ex to the pulp in s.2 ep.4, knowing that she’s flirting with him not because she wants so, but because of the job. Count.

4. Slaughter of younglings in the Jedi Temple. Count.

5. Betrayal of the clones. Leading a brainwashed army (who presumably were his friends) to kill his family (Jedi). Count.

6. Choking his wife. Even better, pregnant wife (doesn’t make it acceptable if she weren’t, though.). Count.

7. Trying to kill his best friend / master / father figure, twenty years later succeeding. Count.

8. Slaughter of all the remaining Jedi across the galaxy, destruction of their culture. Yes, Palpatine manipulated him, but he could have helped Mace Windu [2], and none of that would’ve happened. He didn’t, thus making his choice clear. Count.

9. Maintaining the fascist regime across the galaxy for more than twenty years. Count.

10. Choking his subordinates. Count.

11. Trying to kill his Padawan (‘Rebels’, s.3 ep.22), almost succeeding. Count.

12. Maiming his own child and trying to kill him when he refused to join him. Count.

In case of Vader, lots of his kills remain off-screen, and here go speculations. Different sources (Reddit, ScreenRant, Youtube bloggers) name different numbers from 55 to 69 direct kills throughout all the movies\TV series (not counting tie-in comics). Everyone killed directly and indirectly off-screen hard to estimate – from what we know, numbers can go up to millions.

Sum up: killed at least hundreds of innocents throughout the galaxy, killed or tried to kill members of his family (at least 10 Jedi + Luke), children murders, tortures, completed genocide, maintained a fascistic government.

Interestingly, everything Vader is accused of – true. I couldn’t find any instance where he was blamed, but in fact was innocent. Yes, originally he was trying to save Padme. But a) at what cost? b) save her for her or for his own feelings for her? [3] He was choosing being as he was for many years, he wasn’t mind-controlled or anything.

Also it’s interesting to count the time span of their villainy. Loki committed his crimes in short period of time, after that going into ‘antihero’ mode, helping Thor more than harming. Anakin, on the other hand, took the chance of stopping his villainous acts only once – in ROTJ. Loki – roughly 2 years of his 1053-years-long life. Anakin – 23 years of his 45 years long life.

So, after this investigation, I believe the winner is obvious.

Before anyone says anything about my personal preferences and biases: I like both of them, but also try to be objective – both of them have done bad things, although they’re both sympathetic. Of course, we can delve into Loki’s and Anakin’s mental traumas – but I deliberately didn’t dive into this, because I went into ‘crimes are still crimes’ mode, and giving full psychological portraits wasn’t the goal anyway.

But for me it’s weird that a ‘family-friendly’ company tries to ‘forgive and forget’ Darth freaking Vader and simultaneously blames Loki of all the things possible, even those he’s never done. In terms of crimes committed Anakin wins without questions, so – why?

Actor Bernard Hill died at 79

Famous English actor Bernard Hill, best known for his roles in Titanic and Lord of the Rings, has died at the age of 79, the BBC reports.

He was known for his parts as Captain Edward Smith in Titanic and King Théoden in Lord of the Rings. The part which made him popular was the 1982 BBC TV drama Boys from the Blackstuff, where he played Yosser Hughes, a Liverpool unemployed man who often suffered failure.

Hill died in the early hours of Sunday morning, his agent Lou Coulson confirmed. His fiancee Alison and son Gabriel were with him at the time.

Elijah Wood, Sean Astin, Dominic Monaghan and Billy Boyd, the actors who played the hobbits Frodo, Sam, Merry and Pippin in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, paid tribute to the deceased King Théoden at Comic Con in Liverpool.

We love him. He was intrepid, he was funny, he was gruff, he was irascible, he was beautiful.

“I don’t think anyone spoke Tolkien’s words as great as Bernard did. He would break my heart. He will be solely missed.”

Hill, who was born in Manchester and lived in Suffolk, was due to return to TV screens in series two of The Responder, a BBC drama starring Martin Freeman, due to start on Sunday. Lindsay Salt, director of BBC Drama also paid tribute to him.

Bernard Hill blazed a trail across the screen, and his long-lasting career filled with iconic and remarkable roles is a testament to his incredible talent. From Boys from the Blackstuff, to Wolf Hall, The Responder, and many more, we feel truly honoured to have worked with Bernard at the BBC. Our thoughts are with his loved ones at this sad time.

agents of SHIELD for the TV asks?! hope you feel better darling ❤️

Thank you so much lovely and I hope so too!

1. Favorite episode and why

Self Control! That episode is just an amazing bit of television. The acting and writing are amazing and it’s a culmination of a lot of storylines and it is just so well done. And it has incredible twists and turns and I just adore it!

2. Funniest/crackiest/it's-terrible-but-I-still-love-it episode/scene

Fear and Loathing on the Planet Kitson! That episode is chaotic in the best ways and it makes me giggle every time!

3. It's-terrible-and-I-hate it episode/scene

The scene in Deke’s video game makes me cringe a bit. Don’t love it.

4. Best episode/scene for my favorite character

Rewind is a phenomenal Fitz episode and it has Hunter and I just love it!

5. Best episode/scene for my favorite ship

Gotta be Inescapable! An iconic Fitzsimmons episode.

6. Best episode/scene for a particular supporting character

The Parting Shot is amazing and highlights how important and incredible Hunter and Bobbi are! They’re main characters but the episode deserves a shout out.

7. Best episode/scene for a character I don't usually like

All the Framework episodes have some interesting Ward moments. Still hate him, but they’re good episodes!

8. Most visually beautiful or interesting episode/scene

The 1920s episode is really cool with the imagery and costumes!

9. Most emotionally affecting episode/scene

Omg, all of The Real Deal. The Daisy and Coulson scene really gets to me and the Fitzsimmons wedding is perfection.

10. Most powerful use of music in an episode/scene

Fitz’s death! Omg the music just gets to me. That and Hunter and Bobbi’s goodbye. The music had no right being that moving.

11. Episode/scene that changed my perspective on the show

I loved the show from the start, but Turn Turn Turn changed the whole direction of the show.

12. Episode/scene where the acting stands out

Again, all of Self Control. The acting in that episode from every single actor is just unreal.

13. Overall best-written episode

What If, Self Control, Rewind, Aftershocks, Parting Shot, Inescapable, Maveth, Deal With our Devils, and The End are the ones that stand out the most to me!

Iron Man 2 (2010)

7/10- 14.08.2024

I liked this one more than the first one ngl

Maybe I’m stupid but how do you just create a new element??

Natasha is an icon and we love her

Laser hands!!

My question is how a they so flexible whilst wearing bulky metal suits?? Like I’d barely be able to walk

I like the sound effects that the suits make when they move tho- it’s fun

Coulson is just an all round legend and I think more people should watch Agents of Shield to appreciate him fully

[marvelgeeklikestowrite]

Hey

Fave each iron man movies scenes??

Hey, firstly thank you so much for asking this question. Tony Stark is my absolute favorite and I love him so damn much. These are some of my favorite Iron Man scenes from each movie he appeared in (in no particular order): 1. Iron Man (2008)

The press conference after returning from Afghanistan. This will always remain such a pivotal moment for me because this is where his newly found character development shines. Tony Stark is known for his masks and witty remarks, but in this scene, you see the man changed from his time with Yinsen and in the cave. Yes, his escape from the cave is a truly iconic moment but this scene showed the human side of him.

"I saw young Americans killed by the very weapons I created to defend them and protect them. And I saw that I had become part of a system that is comfortable with zero-accountability. I had my eyes opened. I came to realize that I had more to offer this world than just making things that blow up. And that is why, effective immediately, I am shutting down the weapons manufacturing division of Stark Industries."

" I shouldn't be alive... unless it was for a reason. I'm not crazy, Pepper. I just finally know what I have to do. And I know in my heart that it's right." Again, I love when characters have their world turned on their axis because the development that comes from it. This moment is important for Tony and the dynamic of Tony and Pepper.

And of course, the "I am Iron Man" will always remain iconic.

2. Iron Man 2 (2010)

The senate scene?! We didn't know it at that time but that was Tony Stark standing up to Hydra. And at times we forget that Tony isn't just a superhero. He was a businessman for so long before that and watching him argue in front of that senate was amazing.

"Well, you can forget it. I am Iron Man. The suit and I are one. To turn over the Iron Man suit would be to turn over myself, which is tantamount to indentured servitude or prostitution, depending on what state you're in. You can't have it." "I've successfully privatized world peace. What more do you want? For now! I tried to play ball with these ass-clowns."

"Please, it's not about me. It's not about you. It's not even about us. It's about legacy. It's about what we choose to leave behind for future generations." So much of Tony's character is about him creating his own legacy, accepting the mistakes of his past, and moving forward to create a legacy of peace.

The whole montage of him discovering the replacement for Palladium. Really puts the focus on the 'Genius' part of him. And Tony Stark The Mechanic is always a treat to watch.

The Iron Man yes, Tony Stark no scene with him saying "You can't afford me" after Fury says that he is a consultant. I don't know I just love that scene.

The chaos of the Iron Fam was at peak in this movie! The Monaco Race, with Tony yelling "I was attacked" and then the Stark Expo showdown of him yelling "I was gonna make you an omelette." Pepperony is chaos and I love them.

3. The Avengers (2012)

I can't talk about this movie without mentioning the "Genius, Billionaire, Playboy, Philanthropist." This line changed lives (mine).

There are so many interpersonal relationships at play in this one. I love the "His name is Agent" and then Tony offering to fly Phil to Portland. You can see how much he was clearly affected by Coulson's death. The way he makes Bruce relax and we see the beginning of the Science Bros. The establishment of his and Steve's arc.

When he discovers Loki's plan (I just love the way he says "Son of a bitch)

His whole conversation with Loki in the Tower. "When they come, and they will, they'll come for you." "There's no throne, there is no version of this, where you come out on top. Maybe your army comes and maybe it's too much for us, but it's all on you. Because if we can't protect the Earth, you can be damned well sure we'll avenge it." He was one of the first ones to refer to the team as the Avengers and that just shows how much he wanted that.

The flying of the nuke into the space scene. Because this bitch has really been ready to die since day fucking one.

4. Iron Man 3 (2013)

Iron Man 3 did such a good job of portraying the human side of the superhero gig. The mental toll and exhaustion it takes on a person. Tony famously has skeletons in his closet and for them to be brought out in such a manner was so important for his character. "A famous man once said, ‘we create our own demons'. Who said that? What does it even mean? It doesn't matter; I said it because he said it, so now he was famous and then basically getting said by two well-known guys. I don't, uh... argh. I'm gonna start again. Let's track this from the beginning."

You hurt Tony's people, and he comes after you. "My name is Tony Stark and I'm not afraid of you. I know you're a coward so I've decided that you just died, pal. I'm going to come and get the body. There's no politics here it's just good old fashioned revenge."

Him having fun with his bots and Jarvis. I love his workshop scenes so much.

" Nothing's been the same since New York." "You experience things and then they're over, and you still can't explain them. Gods, aliens, other dimensions. I'm just a man in a can. The only reason I haven't cracked up is probably because you moved in. Which is great. I love you. I'm lucky. But honey, I can't sleep. You go to bed, I come down here. I do what I know. I tinker. I... Threat is imminent. And I have to protect the one thing that I can't live without. That's you. And my suits, they're, uh... Machines. They're part of me." This was his most vulnerable moment till now. And just how much he loved Pepper and was scared of losing her.

Scenes with Harley just stole my heart and you could see that Tony would turn out to be a good dad.

His escape from Killian the first time. His break-in the house. Him without the suit is still Iron Man.

"I guess I'd say my armor was never a distraction or a hobby. It was a cocoon. And now, I'm a changed man. You can take away my house, all my tricks and toys. One thing you can't take away... I am Iron Man." The internal monologue of Tony in this movie is the chef's kiss.

5. Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015)

The 'language' scene (I am a sucker for Steve-Tony banter), the "please me a secret door", the "guys, lets talk" and then "good talk" I love the in-fight humor.

"And I am the man who killed the Avengers" "I wasn't ready. I didn't do all I could…” “It wasn't a nightmare. It was my legacy. The end of the path I started us on.” The visions Wanda showed Tony, the guiding force behind his motivation to build Ultron, the guilt and responsibility he lives with and the fact that no one on the Team ever finds out about it.

"Aww junior, you are gonna break your old man's heart." Ultron was his child in the way all his creations are and their interactions were always so layered.

"We're standing three hundred feet below it. We're the Avengers. We can bust arms dealers all the live long day, but, that up there? That's... that's the end game. How were you guys planning on beating that?" The together conversation, the Endgame conversation, his fears laid out and exposed in front of his team.

"That would end the team. Isn't that the mission? Isn't that the "why" we fight, so we can end the fight, so we get to go home?" This conversation is so pivotal for both Steve and Tony because it showcases their ideals clashing. Tony pushing to end a fight before it begins because he doesn't want any more blood on his hands and Steve striving to fight the fight because he knows the cost of loss.

" I see a suit of armor around the world." " I've seen colder." Such a badass line!

6. Captain America: Civil War (2016)

"There is no decision-making process here. We need to be put in check! In whatever form that takes I'm game. If we can't accept limitations, if we are boundary less, we are no better than the bad guys." "That's good! That's why I'm here. When I realized what my weapons were capable of in the wrong hands, I shut it down and stopped manufacturing." Tony changed his life, turned it around so that innocent lives could be saved and for him to turn back and see that his legacy still ended up with innocent blood on his hands, it was important for him to ensure that accountability was maintained.

"Gimme a break! I'm doing what has to be done, to save us from something worse." The conference room scene of him pleading with Steve to try to hold the team together.

"I'm trying to keep... I'm trying to keep you from tearing the Avengers apart."

Him fighting Bucky without the suit!!!

Him and Natasha after Bucky escapes.

His first meeting with Peter!

The pain on his face and in his eyes when he finds out about his parents and the "I don't care. He killed my mom." "He is my friend." "So was I."

The Rhodey and Tony scenes.

7. Spider-man: Homecoming (2017)

" No, this is where you ZIP IT, alright? The adult is talking! What if somebody had died tonight? Different story, right? 'Cause that's on *you*. And if you died, I feel like that's on me. I don't need that on my conscience."

Honestly, all of the scenes of Tony and Peter in Homecoming are comfort scenes. But the panic in Tony's voice in this scene, the way he felt responsible for Peter, showed just how much Peter meant to him.

"If you're nothing without the suit, then you shouldn't have it." Who better to know about this than the man who was once told that "You are nothing without the suit"

8. Avengers: Infinity War (2018)

Tony finally finding out after years of sleepless nights that his worst nightmare has come true when Bruce tells him about Thanos.

"you throw another moon at me and I'm gonna lose it"

Peter and Tony dynamic!

Thanos and Tony showdown

9. Avengers: Endgame (2019)

"Part of the journey is the end" "When I drift off, I will dream about you. It's always you."

"God, it feels like a thousand years ago. I fought my way out of the that cave, became Iron Man. Realized I loved you. I know I said no more surprises, but I was really hoping to pull off one last one."

The starting monologue of Tony in this movie breaks me. Him thinking that he is going to die in the same place he had nightmares for years.

"I lost the kid"

"I said we'd lose. You said, "we'll do that together too." Guess what, Cap? We *lost,* and you weren't there." "And I needed you" "No trust, liar" I had been waiting for this moment since the Civil War, for Tony to tear Steve apart.

Him looking at Peter's photo and deciding to do this all for him.

Him and Morgan were absolutely adorable.

"Resentment is corrosive and I hate it" Of course he would show up to fix everything again.

"Do you trust me?" "I do"

"No amount of money ever bought a second of time."

I think a lot of Endgame was Tony finding closure, not just for his present but for his past as well.

"You know its a trap right?" "Yeah, don't really much care" The Big Three fighting Thanos.

"Everybody wants a happy ending. Right? But it doesn't always roll that way. Maybe this time. I'm hoping if you play this back, it's in celebration. I hope families are reunited, I hope we get it back and something like a normal version of the planet has been restored, if there ever was such a thing. God, what a world. Universe, now. If you told me ten years ago that we weren't alone, let alone, you know, to this extent, I mean, I wouldn't have been surprised, but come on. The epic forces of dark and light that have come in to play. And for better or worse, that's the reality Morgan's gonna have to find a way to grow up in. So I thought I better record a little greeting, in the case of an untimely death, on my part. I mean, not that death at any time isn't untimely. This time travel thing we're gonna try and pull off tomorrow, it's got me scratching my head about the survivability of it all. Then again that's the hero gig. Part of the journey is the end. What am I even tripping for? Everything's gonna workout exactly the way it's supposed to. I love you 3000." SCREAMING, CRYING, THROWING UP.

"And I..am .. Iron Man."
