#fire the russo bros

[jisreal64]

I can’t believe we are living in the timeline where a gory Seth Rogen produced show made a better adaptation of the Superior Iron Man than the MCU did! 😭😭😭

[allthatmay]

so. totally unrelated fandom post.

i've only seen the first episode of the wizards of waverly place sequel (wizards beyond waverly place) but i have thoughts. the basic premise of the show is that justin russo has settled down with a non-wizarding wife (giada), has two kids, and has become an ordinary middle school teacher after being fired from wiztech. his life is upturned when his sister, alex, drops round with a delinquent young girl named billy who needs help learning magic—and, oh yeah, she's supposedly part of some big prophecy to save the world.

so far, all i've seen is criticism of the characters and the show in general, but i think a lot of it is unfair. i'll concede that replicating the character dynamics from the original show (with giada as theresa, justin as jerry, billy as alex, roman as justin, milo as max, etc) was a bad move, but justin's character in particular has received a lot of flack that i, personally, find unreasonable.

people say that justin wouldn't dare give up being a wizard; that the trajectory of his life makes no sense given his love of magic. but life doesn't always work out the way we imagine, even with meticulous planning and preparedness. we can't forget that justin's own father was very much the same; that jerry was a very skilled wizard who loved magic and could never imagine giving it up. given that, i think it makes sense for justin's character to settle down with a non-magical wife and become a school principal. he held on to magic the longest of the three siblings because he defined himself by his skill with it, but he learned, as he aged, that magic wasn't everything.

besides, seeing justin lose his magical lifestyle as his ages only to reclaim it again at the start of this series is a great, if obvious, analogy for what happens to most of us as we age. even those who hold on tightest to their younger years can find themselves losing the the magic felt in childhood; we have to reach out and take it back for ourselves. children are sometimes the best ones at showing us what we have lost, hence: justin teaches magical children and in doing so rediscovers his own magic.

(side note: being a middle school principal suits him for obvious reasons: his love of learning, love of rules, love of wonder. the whole "being fired from wiztech because of an incident with a unicorn" also makes sense to me because, as much as alex learned from him, he learned from alex, too.)

i have nothing to say about alex's character because selena gomez came back and fucking crushed it. the biggest problem is the delivery of the prophecy: she just drops it like "hey billy's the only one who can save the world" and then leaves. now, do i think this is bad writing? yes. but i also think it would make sense if this was utter bullshit; if alex only said this to justin to ensure he really, truly enveloped himself back into the magical world because she knows just how much he misses it. (it's just a prank, bro!)

what would i have changed? i'd probably have made it so that alex had a kid like justin, and justin had a kid like alex. i would not give justin two boys as i don't think that does anything for his character. i would include both jerry and harper, as their actors have a goddamn podcast about the show and deserve to be included. (not to mention how jerry's character, in mirroring justin's, could be very informative for the whole plot.) also, justin's wife? she's fine, but please at least address what happened to juliet. was it the whole "i'm a vampire and i don't grow old but you do" thing? because that only adds to the reasoning behind justin giving up his magical lifestyle.

(also, and this is a tiny thing, but people are wondering how justin the principal and his investigative reporter wife can afford their house? and, HELLO, we get told that max is now a billionaire—thanks to his sandwich enterprise, i think. he would've totally bought them a house after giada convinced justin to accept it.)

¿What if Project Insight succeeded in Captain America the Winter Soldier?

To: Chris Evans, Sebastian Stan, the Russo Bros., Kevin Feige and Marvel Studios                                                                                                                    Intro

¿What if events went differently in the MCU? ¿What if Project Insight succeeded in Captain America the Winter Soldier? In today’s fan fiction we’re going to be exploring what would have happened if Hydra’s long awaited project became a success killing Captain America, the Avengers and most of the heroes of the MCU respectively. ¿How can this affect Civil War going forward? This an original what if created by me following the mythology of Captain America and the Winter Soldier and the timeline of the MCU. Without wasting anymore time sit back and relax and enjoy this fan fiction.                                        ��               Prologue

Since the beginning of time, the age long argument has been whether man gets to control his future or not. The answer is yes and no. Man gets to control his future by the choices he makes. An individual alias a third party, can alter the future of another man by changing his choice slightly. Even if a choice is made a few minutes or seconds earlier this results in a whole new story for the individual and the people who his choice affects. Project Insight was originally supported by the World Security Council and the United States Department of Defense. It was a project designed to eliminate any potential threats to the citizens of Earth before they actually happened. It consisted of three heavily armed satellite-linked Helicarrier which would take out their targets before the targets would be aware of it. In your universe Steve Rogers and Natasha Romanoff managed to foil the plans of Hydra by changing the systems of the Helicarriers to fire at each other hence terminating Project Insight. In the Agents of Shield timeline Project Insight was successful by the thought by the thought of the Shield agents from the future timeline. In this fanfic timeline we will explore a new universe where Hydra’s long-awaited plan of Project Insight becomes a success. I am one of the Watchers and i am ur guide to these vast new realities. Follow me and pounder the question. What if...

                                                           Act 1

The events of the Winter Soldier were playing out the same as in your universe. With over 715,854 individuals targeted by Project Insight Hydra's main commanding office Alexander Pierce told Nick Fury that Project Insight would kill around 20 million people in total on Earth as the algorithm of Project Insight was already hacked with Arnim Zola’s algorithm but instead of targeting individuals that are in danger to the world individuals that were a threat to Hydra was targeted. In this universe the movie would mostly play out the same but these are the moments that change the timeline. The Winter Soldier managed to successfully kill Nick Fury in the interrogation scene. Hydra had discovered Natasha Romanoff disguised as a Hydra agent and shot her down dead. Maria Hill and Sam Wilson tried to fight off Hydra but they were killed and when Steve battled Bucky just at the moment that Steve was about to stop the Helicarrier machines from activating the targets Bucky shot him in the head killing him for good. The heroes have failed. Project Insight then became active and the Helicarriers aimed towards all of their targets. Alexander Pierce gave the command and the Helicarriers started killing all the individuals who were at threat to them. Tony Stark who was still recovering from the events of the Mandarin and Aldrich Killian at his home was shot and Stephen Strange who had yet to become the Sorcerer Supreme was also killed. Other victims include Hank Pym, Rhodey Rhodes, Pepper Potts, the Agents of Shield, General Ross, Jane Foster, Erik Selvig and Clint Barton who were all key members and allies of the Avengers that disintegrated from the attack. Although Bruce Banner was not in his Hulk form and got shot in the head because he wasn't aware that he was being targeted the gamma radiation in his system managed to save him unleashing the Hulk and becoming a fugitive from Project Insight but even the President of the United States was also killed. The news then reported a massive number of individuals who were killed on television but the Avengers were destroyed as there were no surviving members except for Thor and Hulk. A few hours later Hydra began a military lead by Brock Rumlow alias Crossbones while Bucky Barnes who was still brainwashed under Hydra was given the mantle of Captain America or better yet Captain Hydra wearing a green uniform with a shield and taking charge. Soon the whole of the US government crumpled as anyone who posed the threat soon came under Project Insight’s algorithm and were killed. Shield no longer existed and Hydra’s sleeper agents took control of Shield’s base. Thor was still in Asgard after the events of the Dark World and therefore he wasn’t aware of what was going on. Baron Strucker continued with the research of the Mind Stone on the Maximoff twins but Hydra was still in possession of the Mind Stone from Loki’s scepter so as a result Wanda and Pietro continued to be loyal members of Hydra along with Crossbones and Captain Hydra. Arnim Zola continued to supervise over Hydra and had a physical body just like the original comics. Hydra soon took over Stark Industries and began to deploy its scientists there. They started equipping their soldiers with Stark tech while Darren Cross alias Yellowjacket worked closely with Hydra to deploy Yellowjacket units to the US government but Darren managed to perfect the weaponized suits after Hydra handed him the paperwork of the Ant-Man project by Hank Pym after his death therefore Hydra continued to rule and terrorized the world with their one world government.

                                                                                              Act 2

2 years have passed since Hydra's invasion of the world and it’s now 2016. Ultron and Vision were never created as there was no Avengers and therefore the Ultron project never came to be. The events of Doctor Strange would then take place as Kaecilius attempted to steal the Time Stone from the Ancient One but with Project Insight activated Hydra reported that the Ancient One and Kaecilius were a threat too. The Helicarriers then shot both of them down killing them for good while Pierce dispatched Wanda and Pietro to get a hold of the Time Stone as another artifact to their collection in addition to the Mind Stone. As Wanda and Pietro arrived they saw the Ancient One and Kaecilius with his other minions already dead too. They were about to retrieve the Time Stone before they were being halted as a man came out of the shadows and said that the Time Stone needs to be in the custody of the Sorcerer Supreme. Someone who is known in the Mystic Arts introducing himself as Baron Mordo and that he would be willing to work with Hydra to eradicate the over-existing number of sorcerers on Earth but he cannot hand it over the Time Stone as if it falls into the wrong hands it could activate Dormammu who is a powerful being that would consume the whole of Earth. Pierce decided to allow Baron Mordo to wield the Time Stone in exchange for loyalty to Hydra to which he accepted.

                                                                                           Act 3

Meanwhile king T’Chaka remains the king of Wakanda as he was not assassinated in the bombing of Vienna due to the absence of the Civil War storyline but Okoye and Shuri told T’Chaka and T’Challa of the emergency of Hydra and its tyranny around the world. They said that they cannot reveal Wakanda to the world as they have been isolating themselves for over 2,000 years while Thor returned to Earth and he was shocked to see what had happened but he decided to keep a low profile as he didn't want to escalate the situation. Thor did some research and came across the Sanctum Sanctorum as he also wanted to know where his father Odin was. He decided to seek help from there as Baron Mordo introduced himself to Thor as the Sorcerer Supreme but Mordo also alerted Hydra that the God of Thunder has arrived on Earth saying that Odin is somewhere on Earth and he would only help him if Thor were to pledge his allegiance to Hydra. He said that Hydra are the new protectors of Earth as Thor remembered Steve Rogers telling him how Hydra was evil and how they were involved with the Tesseract. Thor then attacked Baron Mordo as he managed to trap him in the Mirror Dimension but after releasing him from the Mirror Dimension Wanda put hallucinations inside Thor’s mind and Hydra arrested Thor. They figured that since he is a god he would be better to have him on their side instead of killing him.

                                                                                           Act 4

Meanwhile, in Wakanda Killmonger has obtained the secret entrance to Wakanda from Klaw after killing him and Killmonger went to meet with king T’Chaka just like the original Black Panther film. He challenged for the right to the throne but the current leader of Wakanda was not T’Challa rather his father T’Chaka as before he challenged he told Wakanda to reveal themselves to the world because while Hydra is ruling the world Wakanda could rise and share their tech with Hydra. T’Chaka disagrees and said that Hydra would then betray Wakanda. Killmonger decided not to challenge for the throne yet but he left Wakanda and decided to inform Hydra about the country instead. At first Pierce was doubtful about Killmonger since he was just an assassin but then Killmonger told them about the vibranium technology which was originally used for Captain America’s shield saying that in exchange for the vibranium technology and control over Wakanda he wants to be the new ruler of the country. Pierce felt that it was a fair deal and told the Hydra army to focus on Wakanda. As Wakanda was out of scope then Project Insight were not able to enter Wakanda yet as they would have to manually wage a war against them first to gain viability of wakanda but Hydra eventually waged a war against Wakanda to obtain their vibranium resources led by Captain Hydra and Crossbones. Hydra’s soldiers who were already equipped with Yellowjacket suits along with Wanda, Pietro and Mordo were also deployed and the war was broadcasted live on tv.

                                                                                      Act 5

Meanwhile, Thor was still held captive and Odin was still on Earth. Odin warned Thor of Ragnarok in his dreams but Thor was still powerless to do anything while the Guardians of the Galaxy would still be formed unaffected by the events on Earth and Captain Marvel was still alive unaware of Project Insight but she will be an important asset to our story later on. Loki was still ruling over Asgard disguised as Odin but as Thor and Loki never met they weren’t aware of the impending doom of Ragnarok. Odin soon died and went to Valhalla. While Wakanda and Hydra were at war Hela was freed from her prison. She went to Asgard while being confronted by thousands of Asgardian soldiers and the Warriors 3. Hela knew that Odin was dead as she told the other Asgardians that Odin was already dead and that she was proof of Odin’s death. She then killed several Asgardian guards with ease who wanted to arrest her as she then threw her necroswords to Loki and removed his disguise. Everyone was shocked to see that it was Loki all this time as Hela then told the others that she wants to continue the conquest of the 9 realms and that they should begin with Midgard. She said that as Loki's elder sister she would not want to slaughter him unless he poses a threat to her as Loki, the Warriors 3 and the other Asgardians decided to submit to Hela. Loki said that his brother Thor was still imprisoned on Earth but Hela said that she would want to have a reunion with Thor as well so that  they can continue Odin's legacy and she told the Asgardians to prepare for their conquest reviving her undead army and her wolf Fenris.  As Asgard survived and there was no Ragnarok due to Hela being the ruler of Asgard Thanos was not able to hijack the Asgardian spaceship as in your universe. Nevertheless Thanos decimated Xandar and obtained the Power Stone. With an Infinity Stone at hand he decided to shift his targets to the Soul and Reality Stones first. Back on Earth Wakanda was already being bombarded continuously by the Hydra Helicarriers as they were on the brink of breaching the defenses when suddenly a portal opened in the sky but both Wakandans and Hydra were shocked to see what was going on. They heard a declaration from a woman who proclaimed herself as the new queen of Asgard and that she has come to rule Midgard. The conquest of the 9 realms have begun as Hela then brought 4th her troops from the Bifrost Bridge but Pierce instructed the Helicarriers to shoot at the Asgardians for now and the Asgardians were decimated at first from the high-powered cannons from the Helicarriers. As Hela and the rest were unable to pinpoint the exact location of the Helicarriers Loki said that their best bet would be to use the Tesseract to immediately teleport to Hydra's base. Hela agreed and while the Helicarriers were targeting the Asgardians Wakanda’s barrier was almost on the verge of destruction. Loki and the warriors 3 teleported themselves with the Space Stone to the Hydra base where the main command center of the Helicarriers were located. They killed the Hydra agents who were guarding it and also found Thor who was still brainwashed by Wanda’s hallucinations but Thor was still not in a good shape for combat. Now I could have Hela destroy Hydra but no because I wanna keep them around for the next significant event.

                                                                                            Final act

Meanwhile, the Mad Titan has collected the Reality and Soul Stones after decimating Knowhere and sacrificing Gamora. Thanos now had 4 stones in possession and knew that the last 3 stones were all on Earth. Ebony Maw told him how Hela and the Asgardians were at war with Wakanda and Hydra. Thanos saw all this and told his Black Order to prepare their armies as they would now head to Earth to retrieve the Space, Time and Mind Stones respectively. Back on Earth, Hela escaped the Helicarrier along with Thor, Loki and the Warriors 3 and started battling Wakanda and Hydra. Hulk then entered the battlefield using a massive clap to kill several Hydra agents. Just then the sky turned black as all 3 sides saw a massive ship entering the atmosphere. They could not believe it. Everyone on Earth was just witnessing the return of the Chituari. Thanos and his armies then came 4th and Pierce told them that they were trespassing on Earth telling them to go back to where they came from. Thanos ignored the speech and used the Power Stone to lift the Helicarriers before dropping them on top of all the Hydra agents thus destroying Hydra and Project Insight. Thanos then bombarded Wakanda with his own ship. Loki then interfered and tried to bargain with Thanos about giving him another chance to help him. Thanos said that Loki failed him in 2012 and knew that it was pointless as he was the God of Mischief and was unpredictable. Pierce then shot Thanos but it was pointless while Loki tried to stab him but failed. Thanos then grabbed both Loki and Pierce by the neck choking him to death in front of everyone live on tv obtaining the Mind Stone from Loki’s scepter. Thor was furious at Thanos for killing his brother and threw his hammer but Ebony Maw managed to deflect it. Thanos used his sword imbedded with the Power Stone to kill Crossbones and Quicksliver. Just then the Guardians of the Galaxy and Captain Marvel arrived on Earth seeing everything that had happened. Carol Danvers was horrified to see Earth and saw that Fury was killed by Hydra. Nevertheless, Hela and Thor went to Asgard to face Thanos as their power grows more stronger there while the Wakandans and Asgardians dealt with the armies. Captain Marvel eventually destroyed the Sanctuary II and Captain Hydra fought with Corvus Glaive, Hulk against Cull Obsidian, Mordo with Ebony Maw and Wanda with Proxima Midnight. Thanos used the Power Stone to decimate Asgard returning to Earth. Hela and Thor escaped on time seeing most of Thanos’s armies being decimated. The Black Order have been killed by Captain Hydra and the others before charging at Thanos overwhelming him. Thanos used the Power Stone to decimate most of the Wakandans and Asgardians. Thanos then got hold of the Tesseract destroying it unleashing the Space Stone. Mordo then realized that Thanos would eventually win meaning that the world would now be doomed.

                                                                                          Epilogue

Realizing that they would lose if Thanos got the Time Stone he decided to unleash the unexpected and contacted Dormammu who was not imprisoned due to Doctor Strange’s death 2 years prior. Dormammu then consumed the entire universe including Earth and Thanos. This universe was destined for failure. In the further end of the universe Silver Surfer informed his master that Thanos was defeated and Dormammu had begun consuming the universe into the Dark Dimension. He then told the Surfer that soon they will be the ones victorious and it would be the herald of Galactus himself that would come on top…

                                                                                      THE END!

And that is going to be ¿What if Project Insight had become a success in Captain America the Winter Soldier? And what if Hydra had won against Captain America and the Avengers. Like I said earlier this the first post of 2023 because the release of the 1st season has been delayed although it is complete but I’ll address the delay when I finally dropped the season so be on the lookout for that and more what ifs coming soon because this year will be really big and I’m coming in charging with many fan fictions and there is a standalone fan fiction that is going to be a fan fiction movie in the style of the 1st season and upcoming the 2nd season but it is not part of either season so this things are changing and im going to be changing my style a bit and finally be able to drop Star Wars fan fictions and more DC fan fictions especially after James Gunn’s announcement of the DCU. Anyways with that being said take care and have a fantastic day. Peace out!

[lovelyirony]

honestly marvel could never hire me bc i would have more than three females interacting in a film lmaooooooo

[mybrainproblems]

Finished rewatching Winter Soldier again and I’m (yet again!) fucking pissed at Marvel/Disney for being a bunch of spineless cowards because Steve has simultaneously the best and most well-developed relationship in the MCU and what probably ties for the worst and least-developed romantic relationship in the MCU.

Like at least I can pretend my meds gave me a small seizure so I can’t remember 5 seconds of CA:CW and it’s like it didn’t happen. Much as I’d like to, there’s no excising A:AoU from my brain.

Billy Russo x Female Reader

Ratings: Explicit 18+

A/N: So this just happened to pour out of me and wrote itself after all the imagines and drabbles @becauseicantthinkwritings and @marvelmusing threw out there after one of my earlier ask this week.

I hope you enjoy this AU! Looking forward to your feedback and comments!

Sorry if there's mistakes/typos, like I said, I wrote this quite fast today.

"I don't need no nurse Frankie! Just slap a band-aid on it. I'll go back to work," mumbled Billy angrily.

"Bro! You got shot - in the arm- by a fuckin' nail gun - multiple times! That won't be flying with the formans, Bill. You know that. Now go get patched up in the office trailer before they see and you get your pretty ass fired for not reporting it," Frank said to Billy with his best scolding tone.

Billy glared at his brother and made his way to the temporary white office trailer where you worked as an administrative secretary, dealing with the calls, papers, bills and whatnot...Including being the first-aider.

Who hired that idiot? Billy thought, kicking a stone as he walkee like it did him great offence. Billy wanted to throttle the new kid for being careless on his first day and tripping over a cable while holding the nail gun. He knew where the office trailer was, walking past it everyday he worked but he never had to go inside it yet.

You heard the trailer door open, the cool A/C air rushing out and felt the suffocating humid summer heat enveloping you. You twirled around on your office chair to greet who you thought was the lead foreman. "Hey. I can't find today’s deliv- Uhhhh.." you stammered seeing the man standing in front of you. The end of that thought was now out the window including how to breathe and speak with it...You made more incoherent sounds, trying to salvage anything like some hint of professionalism you had left and managed a "Hai…"

Working on a construction site had its ups and downs. Hot sweaty and dirty men were one of them perks but you had never laid eyes on that kind of hot before. He was the definition of tall, dark and handsome even in his dirty work clothes. You could see a trail of sweat trickling down his neck from the base of his dark hair. It was longer on top, messy from hard work and buzzed short on the sides. He was wearing an old black (now grey) company T-shirt with the sleeves ripped off, the side of his toned tan chest peeking from the side openings. His blue jeans were slightly ripped here and there, white paint and plaster splats all over them. The look was topped with the usual work boots and a safety vest he had left somewhere with Frank.

The sight of blood on his left arm startled you awake. “Oh god! Please sit!” You begged snapping out of your reveries seeing the blood trailing down his arm and dripping down his long fingers. “What happened?” You asked, hurrying to get the first aid kit open and putting on gloves.

Billy flopped down on the empty wooden chair next of your small desk, which was facing the exterior wall with a small window. “It’s fine, I’ve had worse. It was just the new kid and the nailgun. Just clean it up and -” 

“...Slap a band-aid on it?” you suggested, finishing the sentence for him with an unimpressed look and an eyebrow raised. You eyed the damage grimacing a bit. It was angry red and bleeding. You thought he probably had taken the other nails off by himself before thinking of nerve damage or infection. Billy had the decency to look away before rolling his eyes. He was fine! It did look like a superficial wound and he didn’t want to make a fuss out of it.

He took a good look at you for the first time as you worked, never having seen you from this close before. He knew there was a chick working here, catching a glimpse of your flowy summer dresses from above as you arrived in the mornings or when you left work early. If he had known how cute you were, he’d have tried to run into you before waiting to need first-aid. You worked silently, cleaning most of the blood before taking a good look at the two nails still in his arm.

“Well aren’t you lucky it wasn’t loaded with 3 inches nails,” you said, picking a small nail and showing it to him. His skin broke in goosebumps at your touch. He could feel how cold your hands were from the A/C through the gloves, blaming it on it instead of how easily he had reacted to you. He rolled his shoulder out of habit and grimaced at the pain, rolling the other shoulder as a result.

“Yeah, we just started on th-”

“Roofing, right?” you said, cutting him off once again, remembering ordering extra materials so they could put more men on that specific part of the building.

Billy narrowed his eyes at you, his eyes now dark slits. He rolled his good shoulder and counted to five. “You do that often? Finishing people’s sentences?” he asked, his turn to raise an eyebrow at you.

You looked down to your lap embarrassed, giving him a bashful grin under your eyelashes. “Sorry, bad habit of mine,” you admitted, biting your lower lip before resuming cleaning the wounds.

His eyes flickered to your lip and he licked his absentmindedly, wondering if they’d taste as sweet as your scent. His annoyance at your bad habit dissipating as quickly as the lewd thoughts of you invading his brain.

He imagined grabbing you by the hips, sitting you on the desk as he’d devour that pretty face of yours, his hands moving the hem of your skirt upwards on your hips. He’d hook his fingers in your panties and slid them off your bare legs, leaving them to hang around one ankle. He wondered how your moans would sound. He'd rub his calloused fingers over your folds and play with your clit.

He groaned, shifting on the uncomfortable chair, adjusting his jeans better, the cool air suddenly too warm.

"I'm almost done," you said with a soft smile hearing him groan, applying the last touches to his arm.

"Take all the time you need…" he trailed off, not knowing your name. He gave you his best smile, his eyes taking every small detail of your face.

He'd fuck you hard, one hand splayed on the wall behind you for support and the other on your hip, holding you in place. He wouldn't have taken off his dusty and dirty work clothes at your demand. You'd look so pretty and innocent-like with that girly flowerly summer dress...Yet so naughty being fucked, at work, on your desk, right by the window by a filthy, sweaty handyman who you barely knew.

"Y/N," you said, cleaning up the desk before taking off the gloves, leaning forward toward him to throw them in the trash next to him.

"Come on, Y/N. You gonna cum all over my cock like a good gurl?" He cooed, rutting inside you, your dress pooling around your hips, your breasts perking up under the cold A/C air and wiggling up and down. Not wearing a bra…

He licked his lips, biting them slightly before smirking. "Thank you for patching me up, Y/N." He said standing up, not wanting to go back to work.

"Oh! Can I have your name before you go? It's for the stupid insurance paperwork I need to fill out after an incident on site," you mumbled, standing up to look for the right forms in a black filling cabinet on the other side of the office.

"Yes…Yes! Billy! Fuck-" You'd moan loudly, clenching down on his cock, milking it as you'd come undone.

"Russo, William" he said, one hand on the door handle, waiting to see if you needed anything else. A good fuck maybe?

"Alright, thanks! And be safe now!" You said, giving him a wide honest smile making your eyes sparkle. He nodded, opening the door and letting a warm draft inside the office.

"Thanks again. I'll see you around, Y/N." He said walking out the door but not before seeing your skirt flowing in the wind, almost flashing him what kind of underwear you had on. If any…

***

Billy was walking to his car after a long day of work, his arm now sore and pulsing with pain.

"William!" You called out from the office trailer. He turned around toward the voice calling his name and saw you beckoning him over from the doorway. He changed direction, his feet carrying him faster with curiosity.

"I'm glad I caught you before you left. I forgot to have you sign the documents earlier," you explained, handing him a pen and pointing to a line at the bottom of some form. He took the pen and signed without even looking at what he was signing for.

"Is there anything else…Y/N?" He asked, saying your name almost suggestively, unable not to after the thoughts he had all day.

"Yes actually," you said, taking the papers back with the pen he was handing back to you. You didn't look up at him as you talked. "Do you take after-hours calls?" You asked boldly, fighting to keep a straight face like you just asked him about the weather, yet bubbling up with excitement inside. Youve seen the way he had gazed upon you earlier and you had to act knowing the interest was mutual. His face broke into a sky smirk, his mood perking right back up.

"Depends if it's you, sweetheart." He teased back with a wink.

Maybe he should get hurt more often…

How does Rio, Angel, Jax, & Coco react to someone being rude for them saying outside of their race or having a mixed child?

I had to go off and do all the boys for this one... Let me know what you think!

Billy Russo: “I don’t remember asking for your opinion, but since you felt the need to bring it up, let’s discuss it.” *takes out one of the many knives he keeps on him at all times and casually holds it to the person’s throat* “I don’t give a shit what backwater small town you came from, or how inbred your family is, or how you never passed the 1st grade, don’t you EVER talk about her like that again, or next time” *pushes the knife in a little deeper, drawing blood* “I’m just gonna kill you.”

Logan Delos: He goes on a whole face journey once he hears the comment: shocked, offended, pissed, incredulous. Once he’s done, he treats the asshole to a long monologue about how he (the guy) couldn’t even COMPREHEND a love like yours, and how he can’t even fathom what it’s like to be a woman like you. You actually have to drag Logan away, he’s on such a roll. But the whole thing sticks in his craw so bad, that he looks the guy up, exposes his racism to all of his loved ones, and gets him fired. 

Jax Teller: *straight up beats the guy’s ass, then takes you and his beautiful mixed baby out for ice cream*

Coco Cruz: “The fuck you just say?” He’s in the guy’s face in a SECOND. “Nah, don’t be shy now, bitch. Say it again!” The guy opens his mouth, but Coco punches him before he even speaks. “This look like the Republican convention to you, bro? You think you can just say whatever you want about my fucking family and not get your ass beat? Nah, bitch, you wanna be bold, you wanna say racist shit, you deal with the fucking consequences!” Then he just beats the guy while you record it on your phone. You go, Glen Coco. 

Angel Reyes: He reacts first, burying his fist in the asshole’s face. If EZ’s with him, then EZ is getting a few licks in too. We all know Angel doesn’t exactly shine in the whole thinking-it-through department, and he might whip out his gun for a second and press it into the guy’s mouth. “Now, maybe I misheard you,” he’d say, shoving his pistol down the guy’s throat, “Can you speak into my mic?”

Miguel Galindo: *stops in his tracks* You call his name, not wanting him to engage, but he turns around, his eyes nearly slits as he glares over at the offender* “Nestor,” he’ll say calmly, “Take them to the car.” Once you and your kids are a nice distance away, escorted by Nestor, Miguel would walk up the guy, tilting his head. He only has one question: “Do you know who I am?” It doesn’t matter what the guy says, all that matters is, a few days later, you see the guy’s face on the news as his family ask for any leads in his sudden disappearance. When you look to Miguel, eyes wide, he shrugs. “He insulted my family,” is all he says, pressing a kiss to his little girl’s head before he walks off, unbothered and unrepentant.

Nick Amaro: Nick gets in the guy’s face, and as soon as he does, all of the venom goes out of him. The guy is literally shrinking as Nick verbally tears him down. “You know, hate speech is considered a crime in this city,” Nick would finish, flashing his badge, “How would you like a Cuban American man to take you in?”

Johnny Tuturro: Season 1 Johnny would call the dude as asshole and tell you not to pay him any attention. Season 2/3 Johnny is throwing hands. If your child/children are involved, though, Johnny is kicking someone’s ASS, no hesitation. “The next time you wanna open that rancid mouth to talk shit,” he’d say as the guy tries to limp away, “Remember this ass-whipping, you son of a bitch!”

Rio: His entire body goes rigid, and his eyes go dark. Literally, his aura is so strong, everyone present can feel the change in the air. The person who spoke up is already trying to backtrack, but it’s too late. Rio doesn’t say shit, he just nods minutely, and then Mick is there, grabbing the guy by the elbow and dragging him off. Then Rio turns to you, putting a hand on your chin, his fiery eyes going soft as he looks down at you. “You know that guy’s an ass, right, mama?” You nod. “What... Where is Mick taking him?” “Oh,” Rio smirks, leaning down to kiss you, “Me and Trump Jr. are gonna have a little talk. I think what happened today could be a real teachable moment for him.” You sigh, shaking your head with a smile.

May 7, 2021: TRON (1982)

Starting to leave lo-fi sci-fi with this one.

Can I just say, I am VERY excited for this one. Mostly because it’s hard to get more ‘80s than this movie, specifically in terms of computers. I’ll explain. Y’know Jurassic Park? Yeah, the same movie I’ve brought up far, FAR too many times this month. Is...is that my favorite sci-fi movie? Shit, it might be? I’ve read the books, I’ve seen the movie COUNTLESS times...I’m pretty sure it is! Huh. Go figure. Anyway, where was I?

Oh, right! Remember the most irritating character in the movie? This is, in my opinion, older sister Lex Murphy. In the book, for the record, she’s a VERY different character. She’s the youngest sibling amongst the two, and she’s a sports nerd who hates dinosaurs. And she’s also the most annoying character in the book, so at least they kept that consistent. However, you may be saying to yourself: “Jesus, this dude really loves Jurassic Park. Even in the intro for Tron, he’s talking about it. Why the hell does he keep bringing it up?”

Well, allow me to explain. When I was 9 years old, I was super into two things: dinosaurs and reading. You may think that I wasn’t very popular in school as a result. And the truth won’t surprise you. Anyway, on January 3rd, 2001, it was a cold morning in the supermarket when

...OK, lemme get to the point. IT’S A UNIX SYSTEM!

See, this moment when Lex hacks into the computer to reactivate the locks (a task given to Tim in the book, but whatever) does two things. One, it makes Lex relevant in a film and story where she’s almost entirely unneeded. And two, it established something in the minds of movie-watchers everywhere: a completely misguided idea of what computer programming is.

And this is just one of MANY examples of Hollywood weirdly representing computers to the public. This was kind of a trend throughout the ‘80s and ‘90s, as computers were beginning to become available to the public. Examples are:

WarGames (1983), dir. John Badham

Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991), dir. James Cameron

Revenge of the Nerds (1984), dir. Jeff Kanew

Weird Science (1985), dir, John Hughes

Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014), dir. Russo Bros

That last one isn’t a great example, and it’s not even within the right time period. I just love Arnim Zola, and he NEEDS TO RETURN to the MCU. Goddamn it, I want this guy back, complete with his full robot body! COME ON FIEGE, LOOK AT THIS GUY! That last one may or may not be my fanart for the character with my own design NEVERTHEGODDAMNLESS!

Look, all you gotta do is connect the various machinations of Arnim Zola to the foundations of AIM, which is easy given their link in the comics. Zola and his fellow Paperclip scientists helped fund Aldrich Killian’s AIM, and the project to give Zola his sick-ass robot body eventually wound up being a part of the project that would create the hovering robotic chair used by this guy.

THIS IS ALL I’VE EVER WANTED PLEASE

...Ahem.

Anyway, the weird-ass ways that Hollywood’s represented computers, hacking, and all other associated things can be traced back to 1982, when the first film to use mostly computer generated imagery for its setting was created. This was, of course, Disney’s TRON. And while I haven’t seen it before...I’ve see its sequel in theaters?

On a related note, Tron Legacy might be a mediocre film with a mediocre soundtrack, but GODDAMN DO IT LOVE THE FUCKING VISUALS. It’s genuinely my favorite aesthetic. That whole “outlined in light” thing? Goooooooh, BABY, how I love it.

Style over substance, but OH THE FUCKING STYLE

Anyway, despite that, I’m looking forward to seeing where the whole thing came from. I dig that style, too. Is there a name for those aesthetics? Let me know, so I can devote my life to it forever. Anyway, shall we get started?

SPOILERS AHEAD!!!

Recap

So, we start this movie off with a BANG, jumping into an arcade where two kids are playing none other than Lightcycle, and jumping into said Lightcycles to meet one of the drivers, Sark (David Warner). A sadistic program, he takes great pleasure in executing programs in Lightcycle races.

One of these programs, in fact, is being brought into imprisonment now, to be set against Sark in a race. The program, Crom (Peter Jurasik), speaks with fellow prisoner Ram (Dan Shor), where we get some idea of the lore of this place. Many programs believe in “the Users”, god-like figures who they believe created them and tell them what to do. However, the mysterious Master Control Program is rounding up the programs that believe in Users, taking over their functions or executing them. Diggin’ the lore so far.

In the real world, we meet Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges), a computer programmer commanding his own program, Clu (also Bridges), and...look, I’m not sure what they’re doing, but OHHH. IT’S A UNIX SYSTEM, BABY. The beautiful bullshit that this movie uses to denote computer activity and programming, it’s...MMMMMMMMMCHEF’SKISS, it’s so FUCKING GOOD!

Anyway, Clu’s apparently being sent to find some information, but he’s caught by Master Control. Jeff Bridges shows off some pretty over-the-top acting, but it’s charming as hell. Clu’s interrogated by Master Control Program (also Warner), and killed, or “derezzed”. This frustrates Flynn, but why?

Well, we get a clue from MCPs concentration with Ed Dillinger (David Warner), who arrives at his office in the COOLEST FUCKING HELICOPTER I HAVE EVER SEEN. I will never make enough money to have this helicopter, but maybe one day I can do it to a car, holy shit. Anyway, Dillinger lands and enters the ENCOM building, where he speaks with his computer table, which contains MCP.

Is this a thing with computer programmers? Do they, like, physically talk to their programs, and the programs talk back? Is this a thing that happens? Are the conversations interesting? Are IT people literally computer-whisperers? I gotta talk to my friends in computer sciences and IT about this.

Apparently, Flynn’s been snooping around their servers for a specific file, and they’re trying to stop him from getting that file. Meanwhile, in an office in the building, a man named Alan Bradley (Bruce Boxleitner) is blocked out of the system in an attempt to flush out Flynn’s location. Bradley’s summoned to the office for what seems like a routine interview, but is actually more of an investigation. Doesn’t go anywhere.

On a side note, by the way, it would appear that MCP is somewhat in control of Dillinger. Although, how and why is unknown. In any case, he’s attempting to amass power. Additionally, the fact that he’s directly speaking to one of the Users is...interesting. And on a second side note, Bradley is preparing something, a security program called “Tron”. That might come up later.

MEANWHILE, elsewhere in the building, a group of scientists are conducting an experiment to digitize solid matter and transport it into computers. It succeeds with an orange, much to their delight and celebration. One of these scientists is Lora Baines (Cindy Morgan), Flynn’s ex-girlfriend and Alan’s current girlfriend. They go to the arcade to reconvene with Flynn, much to Alan’s irritation.

Flynn not only owns the place, he’s also a game whiz, brilliant computer programmer, and recently fired ex-employee of ENCOM. He’s also been sneaking into the ENCOM system, and he details exactly why he’s moving against them. While working for ENCOM, he had started writing programs for some very complex video games, which could’ve have made him quite a bit of money. But Dillinger stole his files, and uses it to climb up the ranks to Senior Executive of ENCOM, while Flynn lounges in relative poverty. He’s planning on getting into the system to get evidence of Dillinger’s wrongdoing.

The trio plots to take down Dillinger and get the evidence together, breaking into ENCOM that night. Meanwhile, Dillinger’s meeting with Walter Gibbs (Barnard Hughes), a co-founder of the company, and one of the other scientists who made the digitizing machine. Dillinger says YOUR TIME IS OVER OLD MAN, and brushes off his concerns about he’s handing the company.

He’s not the only one with issues, as MCP decides to take over FOR Dillinger. Apparently, Dillinger’s talents are stealing data and creating Cybernet/HAL 9000. Good job, buddy. But that may end, when Alan goes to finish and install his program, Tron, which will hopefully take MCP down. Meanwhile, Lora and Flynn go to the basement with the digitizing machine. At the computer terminal, MCP decides to stop Flynn by...well, you know where this is headed.

Yup! Flynn’s brought into the computer by Lora’s machine, and is digitized and put into the game grid. And since we’ll be spending a lot of time there, I think I need to acknowledge something: I really love how this movie looks. The CGI is rudimentary, but it’s used surprisingly well. Consider that this is also made in an era where this is the kind of imagery that computers could literally generate at the time, and you’ve got a pretty great movie in-context.

Flynn, now in those spiffy program duds, is sent by the MCP to compete in the Game Grid, under Sark’s supervision and tutelage. He’s thrown into the brig with the other imprisoned programs, where he learns more about this world. Once brought into the throes of the Game Grid, he’s told that those who believe in the Users are to be trained poorly, ensuring their inevitable death. Meanwhile, those who renounce their belief will be spared. And of all the programs who still believe in the Users, there is none quite as powerful...as Tron (Bruce Boxleitner again).

We see Tron’s badass skills in Ultimate Frisbee. And OK, it’s not Ultimate Frisbee, but you throw discs that contain all of your essence and all of the things you’ve learned in your time there. You basically pour your entire essence and being into the disc as you throw it. So, really, it is Ultimate Frisbee, according to that one dude who’s REALLY into Ultimate Frisbee.

Flynn is commanded to play one of these games, and he winds fairly easily. However, when he defeats his opponent, he’s almost about to die. However, Flynn refuses to finish him off, leading Sark to do so instead. And Sark is tempted to kill Flynn as well, but he holds off at the last moment.

Flynn finally gets to meet Tron, where he feigns being a program that knows of his User, Alan. Of course, Tron looks exactly like Alan, which is why Flynn blurts out his name. But as they’re discussing this, Flynn, Tron, and fellow prisoner Ram are sent to compete in the Lightcycles. And, yes, I’m now looking for a game like this on my phone, because GODDAMN to I love Lightcycles. Can’t WAIT for the Disney World ride, oh my GOOOOD. 

So, our guys get in the Lightcycles, and they outmaneuver Sark’s guys. They’re actually able to escape the arena and the Game Grid, making it outside the citadel. They encounter a, uh, bitstream, and soak up some energy before moving on. On the way, though, they’re nearly killed by Sark’s guys in tanks, and Tron is separated from Flynn an the unconscious Ram.

Flynn and Ram finds a place to rest and hide, and Flynn discovers that, as a User, he actually has the ability to somewhat manipulate the reality within the computer, and he makes a version of MCPs ships, the Recognizers, which resemble the villains in Flynn’s game that Dillinger stole. Now realizing that Flynn is a user, Ram asks him to help Tron, before dying and disappearing into pure code. Whoof.

Tron, meanwhile, ends up finding an input/output program named Yori (Cindy Morgan), who helps him in his escape. She takes him through the city, where we see some interesting designs for control programs, almost like a Hunger Games Panem sort of deal.

Flynn has trouble driving his ship, as he meets a “bit”, a small bit of data that only answers in yes or no. He, too, ends up in the city, and you start to notice that this film has a really heavy influence in our cyberpunk concepts and fashions today. Honestly, I really dig this whole thing. Kevin uses his programming powers to disguise himself as one of Sark’s guards, while Yori and Tron find their way through the main citadel of the guards.

They make their way through to the access tower, where they ask the program Dumont (Barnard Hughes again) to let them access the interface that will allow them to speak with the Users, specifically Alan. Reluctantly, Dumont agrees to let Tron through, where he goes to the access port. Which, for the record, looks awesome. He goes to speak with Alan, and he does that one pose. Y’know, the famous Tron pose that’s on the poster?

Yeah, that’s the good stuff. Anyway, he gets information written onto his disc that’ll allow him to kill MCP. Neat. And unfortunately, that’s exactly when Sark and his guys show up, taking Dumont away as Tron and Yori escape. Yori gets them onto a Solar Sailer, a device that will transport them to the central computer. Tron fends off some of Sark’s guys with video game noise kicks, and the Solar Sailer arrives to take them away.

Sark chases after them, but the pair manage to outrun his very cool-looking ship. MCP threatens to destroy Sark for his failure, but he promises that he’ll be able to get them. On the ship, Tron looks down at the side to see Flynn hanging on. Turns out that he was one of the guards that attacked the two. Tron pulls him up onto the ship, and Flynn reveals that he is, in fact, a user. He also reveals that Users aren’t exactly the gods that programs believe them to be.

Anyway, how’s Dumont doing?

Ah.

Well, the Recognizers find Tron, Yori, and Flynn, and chase after them on the light beam the Solar Sailer is on. However, with his User powers, Flynn manages to get the Sailer onto a different beam, while pulses on the original beam destroy the Recognizers.

Doesn’t end up mattering much, though, as Sark finally catches up and intercepts the group. The Solar Sailer is destroyed, and Yori and Flynn are thrown in the brig with Dumont, who’s still alive! Can’t say quite as much for Tron, apparently. But, again, I can only assume that Ton is still alive. We’ll see, though. Sark denies Flynn’s identity as a User for some reason (I mean, MCP told you who he was, but OK), and he sentences them all to death. Outside the ship, of course, is Tron, who’s hiding and waiting for the right time to strike. And that is when we finally see him.

Glorious. Absolutely goddamn glorious. MCP is taking the remaining programs that believe in Users, Dumont included, and incorporating them into his mass. Meanwhile, Sark has found Tron, and the two are fighting with a classic game of Ultimate Frisbee. Tron nearly defeats Sark entirely, but MCP revives him, and gives him the power to take out Tron. He grows gigantic, and it looks genuinely really convincing.

Flynn prepares to take out MCP once and for all, and kisses Yori just beforehand, which is weird as shit. He jumps into the program, and controls it just long enough for Tron to throw his disc at it and land the finishing blow. And with that, MCP is ended, and the threat of take over is gone! The I/O towers light up, and the Video Warriors have won! Don’t ask me what that means, I study birds.

And with ALL OF THAT DONE, Flynn gets the proof he needs from a print-out that, to be honest, I feel like he could’ve just typed up himself. It doesn’t look like that much. But, still, MCP is gone, Dillinger’s screwed, and Flynn now gets a cool-looking helicopter of his own, as the new CEO of ENCOM. And from there, he will become a deadbeat dad that abandons his kid to live in computers forever. Or something like that, it’s been a while since I’ve seen Tron Legacy.

And that’s Tron, a goofy movie of its time, but one that’s a lot of fun all the same. And with some effects that, to be honest...I actually really liked! But more on that...IN THE REVIEW! See you there!

[youngbugandtonystank]

while I want to agree with what you said, you need to consider the fact that steve associates people getting locked up with concentration camps, he lived in a world where that's what he saw every day so maybe a little compassion for him next time

Ok, going by your logic, why did he have Clint call Wanda to the airport fight knowing the consequences that were going to follow her for the rest of her life then?

Clint: Cap needs our help. Come on.

-

Steve Rogers: You know I wouldn't have called If I had any other choice. (But he did have a choice, Tony gave him multiple ones)

Clint Barton: Hey man, you're doing me a favor. Besides, I owe a debt.

-

Steve Rogers: We're outside the law on this one. So, if you come with us, you're a wanted man.

Tony offered Steve very reasonable options, Steve refused all of them. Tony said he would take care of the PR fire that was going to follow not only him but Wanda and the entire team, promised to get the documents amended, sent Ross Zemo’s files, tried to get Ross to reroute the satellites and start facial scanning for Zemo to get him so Bucky could be off the hook, said he was wrong and was willing to make up for that, said he would file a motion to have Steve and Wanda reinstated after what happened. Even after everything, he lied to Ross and let the entire team escape.

Steve was aware of this. He was even aware that people were going to go after Sharon Carter and refers to Scott AND Wanda as ‘recruits’. He did this after calling Wanda a ‘kid’. 

Wanda herself recognized that it was probably for the best and wanted to stay:

Clint Barton: Okay, we gotta go. Wanda Maximoff: I've caused enough problems. Clint Barton: You gotta help me, Wanda. Look, you wanna mope, can go to high school. You wanna make amends, you get off your ass. 

Clint feels responsible for her because he feels guilty for what happened to Pietro. You see, this is where I don’t follow, Jeremy Renner said ‘He had to repay a debt to Scarlet Witch, and Cap called in need, so he came out of retirement.’ How is helping Cap repaying debt with Wanda? He’s basically using her to help Steve, and this is for her own benefit? He pays off this debt by helping Steve? Isn’t that debt supposed to be about Wanda? lmao

Clint even mocked her for wanting to feel responsible for the death of the people in Lagos. She was not going to feel responsible forever but at least let her take responsibility for that. At the end of the day, Wanda even said sorry to Vision because she saw the disaster that little fight created. 

Natasha Romanoff: Try not to break anything while we fix this.

Tony Stark: [still on the phone.] Consequences? You bet there'll be consequences. Obviously you can quote me on that 'cause I just said it. Anything else? Thank you, sir.

Steve Rogers: 'Consequences'?

Tony Stark: Secretary Ross wants you both prosecuted. Had to give him something.

-

Steve Rogers: I'm not getting that shield back, am I?

Natasha Romanoff: Technically, it's the government's property. Wings, too.

Sam Wilson: That's cold.

Tony Stark: Warmer than jail.

-

Tony Stark: GIVE ME A BREAK! I'm doing what has to be done . . . to stave off something worse.

-

Secretary Ross: I'm putting Special Ops on this.

Natasha Romanoff: What happens when the shooting starts? What, do you kill Steve Rogers?

Secretary Ross: If we're provoked. Barnes would've been eliminated in Romania if it wasn't for Rogers. There are dead people who would be alive now. Feel free to check my math.

Tony Stark: All due respect, you're not going to solve this with boys in bullets, Ross.

-

 Tony Stark: Or a squad of J-SOC guys . . . with no compunction about being impolite. 

-

Natasha Romanoff:  Is this, part of the plan?

Tony Stark: Well, my plan was to go easy on them. You wanna switch it up?

If Steve knew the consequences, then why would he prefer Wanda to be in a real prison over a place he himself calls ‘home’?

Gif not mine.

Consequences the rest of them suffered:

Natasha Romanoff: After the whole Accords situation, he and Scott took a deal. It was too tough on their families, they're on house arrest.

And this is Clint’s reaction: 

Tony Stark: Because you broke the law. Clint Barton: Yeah. Tony Stark: I didn't make you. Clint Barton: La, la, la, la, la . . .

And Tony is the man-child? lmao

And Tony even tells them they were aware of their decision. First, they don’t want Tony ‘controlling’ them and then they blame him for not doing enough for them? lmaooooooo

Tony Stark: Alright, you're all grown up, you got a wife and kids. I don't understand, why didn't you think about them before you chose the wrong side?

I do agree that maybe because Tony used the word ‘confined’ Steve immediately felt defensive. One thing the writers did wrong with him is trying to make him look like the honorable tough soldier all the time. And that’s not it, you can clearly see Steve lives in the past; has some big traumas under his sleeve. How about instead of making him look ‘badass’ why not deal with those things first? Why not make him learn some mistakes first and then help him heal? Perhaps giving him time with Bucky in the compound while they all work things through. Not a hard thing to do. Instead, they chose to make him a nomad bearded ‘badass’ fighting crime in the dark. This is where the Russo bros fail with Steve, while they can write him in an amazing setting and a perfect compelling storyline, they fail to understand Steve’s emotional side and the fact that men DO feel too. Especially someone like Steve. They think his submerged feelings over a failed past should be dealt with heroic acts of rebellion over what society tells Steve to be. Nobody tells Steve he’s wrong except for Tony, the rest of them actually drop everything to help him (Clint his family, Wanda, Sam, Natasha their freedoms, Scott is disappointing his daughter all over again after spending a previous movie talking about how he doesn’t want to do that anymore, etc).

Scott Lang: No, I’m serious, man. I’m not going back. I got a daughter to take care of.

-

Scott Lang: I’m trying, okay? I’ve changed, and I’m straight, I had a job, and… I want to provide. I had a lot of time to think about it, and I love her. So much. I’ve missed so much time and I want to be a part of her life. What do I do?

Maggie Lang: Get an apartment. Get a job, pay child support. And then we will talk about visitation, I promise. You’re her hero, Scott. Just, be the person that she already thinks you are.

I highly doubt becoming a war criminal involves that. They sacrificed a lot of characters’ development to fit into Steve’s predicament. They write him in a way where he’s always going to come out on top, where he’s always right, where he doesn’t deal with his consequences and the entire audience has to see everyone trust him no matter how matter mistakes he’s made. 

This Steve looks nothing like comics!Steve. MCU Steve is an entitled jackass. 

And let’s not forget, when given the time to spend time with Bucky, he left and went to the past to rob a woman’s whole life. That’s his happy ending? 

None of them are perfect.

¿What if Iron Man SURVIVED the Snap in Avengers Endgame and appeared in Spider-Man Far From and No Way Home?

To: Robert Downey Jr., Tom Holland, the Russo Bros., Jon Watts, Marvel Studios and Kevin Feige

This is going to be a long one…

Intro

¿What if events went differently in the MCU? ¿What if Iron Man survived the Snap in Avengers Endgame and appeared in Spider-Man Far From and No Way Home? In today’s fan fiction we’re going to be exploring what would have happened if Iron Man was able to withstand the raw power of the gauntlet in Avengers Endgame and had a major role in Spider-Man Far From and No Way Home. ¿How can this affect the Kang Dynasty, Secret Wars and the next Spider-Man trilogy going forward? This is my own take of events taking inspiration from the Ultimate Marvel comics including Ultimate Spider-Man with elements from the 2007-08 One More Day story arc adding details from the 2014-15 Spider-Verse story arc and brief references to the 2010 One Moment in Time comic while following the mythology of Iron Man and Spider-Man and the timeline of the MCU. Without wasting anymore time sit back and relax and enjoy this HUGE fan fiction. 

                                                        Prologue 

In my analysis of the multiverse it was and still is very rare for me to see people survive certain death. The only time this has happened in general was with Captain America after being stuck in ice for nearly 70 years. But recently Iron Man died snapping away Thanos and his armies away for good due to the raw power of the gauntlet. But what if I told u that there is a world where Tony Stark literally survived the snap and managed to withstand the power of the Gauntlet leading to terrible consequences for the entire universe including the events of No Way Home not happening. I am the Watcher. I am ur guide to these vast new realities. Follow me and pounder the question. What If…

                                                            Part 1 

The events of Endgame were playing out the same as in our universe. The battle had been hard for the heroes being caught off guard while Thanos and his armies started raining fire on the Avengers compound. The timeline is the same as the original where the big three fought Thanos in close quarters combat duel and near the end of the fight Thanos had attained the Infinity Gauntlet after knocking out Captain Marvel with the Power Stone. Stark looked in the distance seeing Doctor Strange extending his finger out telling Tony that this was his moment and this is how they would win the battle. Stark knew this might kill him and he didn’t have a choice but to try. Thanos smirked before trying to snap until Iron Man rushed in punching and trying to distract Thanos and while his armor had absorbed the stones without knowing the mad titan Thanos beat Tony to the ground and snapped but nothing had happened. The snap echoed in the air but no power went off. He looked in shock watching as Stark’s arm lit up from the Infinity Gauntlet piercing right through his skin. The raw power felt good. Tony said “I am Iron Man” snapping away Thanos and his armies while at the same time Tony was teleported to the Soul Stone. He thought he was dying and Tony was surprised to see who it was. It was his daughter Morgan. She cried giving him a hug where Tony knew he couldn't leave his family Iron Man needed to live no matter what the costs. She asked Tony what it took and Tony cried. He didn't know what to say but before he could say anything Tony woke up breathing heavily. He saw Rhodes and Pepper who sat his body up. Tony tried to talk and Rhodes asked him what he needed and Tony replied to remove the gauntlet immediately. Spider-Man dropped below with tears streaming down his face as Tony faded away. Rhodes removed the Infinity Gauntlet but Tony’s hand had melted.  Parker told them they needed to do something before Doctor Strange and the Hulk walked towards Peter. Strange opened a portal and grabbed him. Stark was sent to a hospital where they removed the suit from the damage but the nanobots on tony's hand had been fried ruining half of his bloodstream in his arm. This caused the doctors to remove Tony’s left arm. He was on life support but he was still alive the rest of the Avengers stood still after the battle was finished. They won but with the cost that Tony could be dead. Captain America slowly walked up to the group and Steve told Spider-Man that they should regroup. He said Stark is strong and that he will survive his injuries. They agreed as the heroes walked away from the debris. They returned to Stark’s home debating on the next course of action with the Infinity Stones. Steve Rogers told them how he would be the one to send them back. Now this timeline could continue the same as the MCU where the Avengers broke up due to some of them departing ways but this time i want to keep things around for the next significant threat. Captain America grabbed the case that had all the stones but Thor put his hand on Rogers’s shoulder. He said the Captain needs a break and he should visit Tony in the hospital. Thor explained that he knew his intentions but told Steve that he would be living a lie in his entire life. Rogers thought about going back in time living with Peggy in the 40s but he also knew that he couldn't change the past and what happened. Steve had a tear in his eye when he decided he would stay with the Avengers as they needed a Captain America and the world needed a symbol. Thor would be the one to take the stones back to their original points in time. Steve went into Tony’s house where they were watching a video log before the time traveling had happened. Tony’s hologram told them how he might have an untimely death but it wouldn't be the end. This motivated Rogers and he knew that this wouldn't be the end for the Avengers but the destruction of Thanos and his armies would only be the beginning steps. Steve looked to see the young man who fought side by side with Iron Man against Thanos’s army. Steve waited for the message to come to an end and Peter gave Pepper a hug leaving the house. He walked outside opening the door to his surprise when he saw Steve Rogers. Peter asked what he was doing here and Peter thought that Cap was going to bring the stones back. Captain America smiled and he said that he had a change of heart. Peter looked to his left to see Thor returning from the time machinewhere Thor reverted to his normal self. Steve said “Tony told me you were an Avenger now”. Peter was shocked to hear that Tony told him this. Peter agreed that he was an Avenger and asked what they were going to do going forward. Peter said “ i don’t know what to do if Mr Stark doesn’t make it”. Peter put his head down but Steve encouraged Peter that Tony would make it. It’s something he does. Steve asked Peter to come with him to the hospital and Peter wasn't sure he wanted to see how Stark was but knew that he needed to rest. Cap said that maybe instead of visiting him Peter could work on his training. Peter asked what he meant by this training whereas Steve replied that when they fought at the airport in Germany 7 years ago his fighting skills were terrible. Rogers made it clear that Peter was flawed and needed significant training if he would become a full-time member of the Avengers. At the same time Tony woke up and everything around him was distorted but Tony saw himself fighting someone on top of the Statue of Liberty. He turned to his left and Peter’s dead body laid there motionless before he saw a man in a hood striking him with a blade. Tony used his arc reactor on his chest blasting the man’s face off. Tony noticed that Parker’s blood was on his hands. Tony woke up shaking in the hospital bed. Happy who was with him this whole time phoned Pepper that Tony had awoken. Pepper quickly made her way to the hospital. Happy asked Tony if he was going to be okay and Tony was motionless in the hospital bed. He looked at his arm which was gone after he performed the snap and all Tony said was ¿where's Pepper? Happy told him to hang on tight as she was almost there. Tony told Happy if any of this was real and Happy was confused and told Tony that he was still alive and that they won the battle. Pepper walked into the hospital where they kept Stark in a giant room along with Happy Hogan. She stepped inside running to Tony’s aid. she asked how he was and he replied how she was doing. Happy looked at Pepper. They both knew that something was wrong with Tony. It was like his PTSD came backbut this was a lot worse. Tony yelled saying that he wanted to go home and started ripping apart wires that connected to his ventilator. Tony noticed that none of this was real before noticing that his left arm was gone. He was horrified by the sight of it. Pepper and Happy told Stark to calm down. Tony was about to get up but the doctors restrained him. Tony told Friday to boot up the systems and the nanobots in his bloodcreated his armor before Tony broke free from the hospital. They told him to stand down as Pepper cried pleading to Tony that he was sick but Stark didn't listen before blasting a hole through the hospital flying away. The sky looked warped as Tony started flying but he felt like he was going to get sick before landing on a nearby building rooftop. Tony knew that he needed to get home and went back to his house. He opened the door yelling Morgan’s name and she ran down the stairs to see him but she knew that something was amiss before Tony fell to the ground in his armor. She asked if he was okay where Tony cried hugging her. Tony needed reassurance that he still had a family while Pepper and Happy bursted into the house tracking where Tony was using his armor. They saw that he was on the floor hugging Morgan. They all came in to hug Tony who passed out on the floor. Having woke up to yet another nightmare Tony felt different and after a few days of being with hisfamily he recovered from most of his injuries. Tony got off of the couch where he went outside to the lake. He looked to see past the lake where his old arc reactor was floating. He smiled and he thought that now that Thanos has been destroyed he could work closely on new projects that could save the world if a new threat were to happen again but the PTSD was getting worse. Tony started having flashbacks of the ultimate power and how it felt on him. He missed wearing the gauntlet but it showed him visions of his future and other realities. Tony fell to his knees trying to breathe. It took him some time but he snapped back to reality as a truck door slammed and Tony turned around to see Steve Rogers coming out of the truck. Steve was shocked to see Stark’s face as half of his face was scarred from the Infinity Gauntlet. Tony and Steve shook hands and Cap said that he was happy that Tony made it out and knew that deep down he was the one to make the final play. Steve said to Tony that if he was feeling all right and Tony replied that Steve just didn't know what the Infinity Stones felt like and to have such power. Steve looked seeing that Tony’s left arm was missing and Steve asked Tony to be part of the Avengers again whereas Stark took a deep breath telling Rogers not to ask that question and he said it could be anything else but that to which Rogers said that he's been training the kid for some time and was doing well and that he hopes to see you again and Stark said “not like this “ as he gazed at his missing arm. Steve knew that something was off with Tony but he might need time to get over things. Steve said that if he ever needs anything to give him a call. Stark was glad that Peter was being trained but he needed to be there too for him. Tony nodded his head before Steve got back into his truck leaving. Tony stopped talking to visitors and taking calls shunning himself from the world for the next eight months. Peter Parker tried to contact Tony Stark but every time he tried the calls would fail manually because Stark was depressed and scared at the nightmares he was getting every night. The nightmares were getting worse and his PTSD was higher than ever. Tony built a massive underground basement almost like his original room where he made machines armor and more Stark weapons thinking another Thanos might happen anytime soon. Tony was rapidly building and he was making resources. He resorted to drinking where he became an alcoholic. Pepper asked Tony to stop and Tony replied that he can't because the next Thanos was coming and because of this he needed to create a suit of armor that could tank it. A almost godlike armor was being developed. Pepper cried and couldn't reason with Tony anymore as he was becoming like his old self but worse. He spent less time with Morgan because of the constant thought of losing the two of them. Tony kept saying that it was for their own good or he would make the excuse oftough love. Pepper said it wasn't love and he lost his mind. Tony screamed at Pepper and he didn’t even look at her and he just kept building his next best armor. Everywhere on the news people asked “¿where is Tony Stark? Tony watched the news and knew that he needed to come back to show the world that the Avengers would never be messed with ever again. Stark finished his suit that was utterly silver and he named it the superior Mark I. At the same time a breaking news story hit. Stark looked on the news to hear that a massive creature had been stopped in Mexico by the name of Mysterio. While Fury and María Hill investigated the storm they came across someone who started to stop it. The man defeated the elemental before approaching Fury. Fury recruited him but this time in our universe Mysterio wouldn't reveal his true name or even take his mask off due to Stark still being alive.                                                                     

                                                         Part 2 Just like in our MCU universe the Midtown School of Science and Tech completes its year which was restarted to accommodate the students who previously blipped five years earlier from the Mad Titan’s actions in Wakanda. A lot of the students came back who were aged and some who were not aged and this resulted in the students having to finish their last year of high school while the school organizes a two-week summer trip to europe with Peter Parker is now training with Steve Rogers on the side to become a better Avenger after not receiving phone calls. Parker still felt bad after the events of the Mad Titan and sometimes he thought to himself that maybe he could have snapped with his spider powers as it wouldn't have messed him up. While still being in school and now a member of the Avengers Peter’s social life was continuing. He planned to reveal MJ’s attraction towards her but because of the elementals in Mexico Parker was forced to go to Europe but as Spider-Man and Steve  Rogers phoned Peter to inform him that they are needed and Fury is asking for him. Peter this time agrees to meet with Nick Fury due to Rogers’s request. Parker met with Nick Fury in a vehicle in Italy where Peter goes with his class. Peter leaves his class swinging as Spider-Man. Fury meets Spider-Man on a building rooftop where Peter in this universe gets Edith early. Fury reveals to Peter that Stark is  a broken man now and Parker was shocked to hear it but knew it was true. Nick told Peter how he was becoming an alcoholic and how he's been working towards a secret project. Peter felt letdown to see how his old mentor has fallen so far and so fast but nevertheless Parker thanked him for the glasses and asked him “¿why now?” Fury said that just in case anything happens start his successor as he would be worthy to have the glasses. Peter asked if Tony was okay with this where Fury didn't reply. He told Spider-Man to come with him. Since Parker met with Fury earlier in this universe the events of the elementals and Venice, Italy haven’t happened yet. Peter and Fury walked into an underground facility in Italy. It was dark and his shadow was being casted with each passing moment. Parker could see people talking in the distance where he saw Steve Rogers and Mysterio talking. Mysterio was the new hero on the news. Parker was shocked to see the big fishbowl type mask on it. His voice was distorted and Mysterio claims to Captain America and Spider-Man that he is from another reality that had similar heroes just like this one. He explained that the elementals in New Mexico was part of his reality and that the creatures have destroyed his world but with their help they might be able to stop the impending doom the elementals bring and while they began talking Peter’s classmates have been out partying during the summer trip. While they were having fun a massive storm had happened and a giant water elemental was unleashed on the city. Fury told Mysterio, Cap and Spider-Man that he had just emerged from the water and started attacking people while Spider-Man told them his friends were in danger. Having a suit this time the three decided to pursue the elemental which was a massive water creature that  attacked people and started smashing buildings. At the same time Tony Stark was listening to music and while he was building and upgrading his armor his music was cut from a breaking news story that explained that another elemental had emerged in Italy destroying and killing people. The news said that Spider-Man had been badly injured by the water creature and Stark stopped everything as he knew that he was needed before it was too late. Still having nightmares of the future Stark knew that the kid needed his help and although he was half drunk Stark slowly got into a Superior Mark I suit before blasting off.  Captain America tried fighting the elemental and he was thrown into the water where Spider-Man tried to save him. The two were drowning below while Mysterio tried stopping the creature with his powers before a bright light emerged coming closer. Mysterio was hit from behind by the water as a man standing in the night sky hovered above the water creature before a massive blast from his chest hit the elemental. Fury smiled watching from a far as it was revealed to be none other than Iron Man himself. Spider-Man would save Captain America who then saved Ned and MJ from the elemental while Stark easily put down the creature and the water elementals started fading away as more stark beams hit it. Rogers was surprised to see Tony back in action this early and Spider-Man swung up landing on the bridge seeing Stark easily defeat the creature. As Spider-Man tried to get Tony’s attention Iron Man looked at him seeing Spider-Man in a new black and red suit and he was going to talk with him as Peter said Mr. Stark before Tony flew away. Cap told Peter not to worry about it and Tony was going through something but he said that he still cared as he came in stopping the creature. Tony came home flying home drunk before Pepper walked outside screaming at him saying that he's become irresponsible and that they have a kid. Tony yelled at Pepper to leave him alone and the nightmare started haunting him again as Tony stumbled into the kitchen before passing out in front of Morgan who started crying. Pepper took Morgan before driving away leaving Tony broken in his home and he thought that maybe he should have died while Tony went into a mental breakdown. Spider-Man, Mysterio and Captain America plotted to take down the last elemental where Mysterio claimed was in Prague. Rogers told Peter that they needed to go there immediately to stop this and after Peter saw and heard what happened to Tony he declined their offer as he told Cap that his friends were in danger and that they needed his helpafter Thanos and now Stark. He just needed a break to himself and wanted to continue the vacation. Rogers realized that Peter is still a kid and because of this maybe this isn't his line of work. Maybe he was becoming exhausted and he was still a kid after all. Fury secretly changes the class's trajectory to divert the students to Prague. Steve told Fury not to do it but because Spider-Man was going to be a key Avenger going forward Fury told Rogers that a little experience wouldn't hurt. This disgusted Tony while Rogers told Fury that he should check up on him once this problem is solved. Nick agreed while they kept working with Mysterio as Peter continued his class trip like in our universe and he learned to use Edith more but after some time the class trip was diverted. Parker saw as they were going to Prague that the fire elemental was attacking the classmates. Parker dodged the fire attacks with Mysterio and Captain America where they were able to stop it. Mysterio thanked Captain America and Spider-Man for assisting him and stopping the final creature Molten Man. Fury was happy to hear it and asked the three to form a new superhero team in Berlin. Later, Fury asked Spider-Man  that he still needs to step up asking if he wants to live up to the next Iron Man. Rogers told Fury to stop before they got into a heated argument. Spider-Man told them to stop fighting and Steve told Spider-Man that today is his day and that he deserves the rest of the day off as he not only saved all of his friends but helped Mysterio take down the elementals. Fury along with Captain America would leave Spider-Man and Mysterio after the battle. They went to the bar to discuss themselves and Parker was shocked to see Mysterio removing his mask as he told Parker he was just a regular guy like him. The two talked about themselves and Peter was sorry to hear that Quentin Beck’s family was killed. Mysterio said that he could starta new family in this universe and Peter was happy to hear him. As the two talked about their battles Beck asked Peter what he wants to do in life where Peter said that he just wants to go back on his trip and he told him that he was thankful for Steve Rogers helping him train more but after taking up this big mantle and now Iron Man being retired it seems like a big responsibility. Beck then was curious about Tony’s relationship with Peter asking him how they became friends whereas Parker told him that he was recruited when the Avengers had a Civil War among themselves that led to them fighting and then fighting Thanos but after the battle was over Peter said that Tony became a new person that he didn't recognize and even after fighting the water monster Stark looked ill. Peter didn't know if he could be the next Iron Man and at the same time a woman walked towards Peter who gave Peter Edith as Mysterio laughed saying that the glasses don't look good on him. Parker was shocked to hear it but knew that it was a joke. He thought that maybe he could give Mysterio the glasses and that way there he could continue just being Spider-Man. Although he liked them it was too much for Parker and Mysterio told Pete that if he was certain he wanted to give them up. After Peter witnessed Beck’s actions after taking down the elementals he agreed to give them up as he was a experienced  fighter. Anyways Quentin smiled before taking them. Parker gave control to him before thanking Mysterio for helping him through his training with Captain America to becoming an Avenger. Parker left Beck at the bar going back to the field trip and at the same time Beck celebrated alongside ex-Stark Industries workers because Beck was fired from his position as Stark’s holographic illusion specialist for his unstable nature use of advanced projections to simulate his power of the elementals and now with Edith’s orbital weaponized drones to increase the scale of his illusions he can establish himself as an Avenger or the new main leader of the Avengers but there was still one last thing Beck needed to do  and that was take out Tony Stark. The ex-Stark Industries employees came up with a plan that would lure Tony Stark to becoming the famous Iron Man once again and the team started working. At the same time Parker learned that MJ knew that he was Spider-Man and they discovered a machine after getting into an argument if he was Spider-Man or not. The machine showed a projection that showcased Mysterio fighting all the elementals. Parker was shocked but knew that there was no time left as he made a mistake by giving Edith to him and the events of Spider-Man Far From Home almost playout the same with Nick Fury meeting Spider-Man in Berlin. Parker told Steve Rogers about Beck’s doings. Meanwhile, Tony Stark kept building machines and new armor at his house hearing on the news that Spider-Man was appearing in Berlin. Tony was shocked to hear it  but he was half drunk and decided to ignore the issue. While this happened Edith showed Beck where Stark was living and while it was a secure place it was exposed after Parker gave him the glasses. Hacking into Tony Stark’s security his master plan had worked and the team of ex-Stark workers planted drones everywhere around Stark’s house that were rigged to explode. Tony looked at his phone as music blasted working on a suit. He saw that Steve Rogers was trying to reach him. Steve was told the truth about Beck and how he used to work for Tony Stark and now he was seeking revenge for what he did to him. Steve Rogers kept phoning Tony but he soon realized that he was too late as Mysterio bomb went off near Stark’s house. The bomb wiped out the entire house. Tony heard screaming and at the same time Parker confronted Beck alone but his illusions were too powerful almost killing Spider-Man in the process. After Parker was hit by a train telling Beck about his friends and how they knew he was Spider-Man. Beck promised that he would take care of them like how he took care of Stark and his family. Peter tried to phone Happy Hogan who was unavailable due to Stark’s family. Tony ran up the stairs earlier but he was already too late. Worrying so much to save his friends and family Tony was too distracted as he saw Morgan lying on the floor beside Pepper holding them tight. Tony screamed and cried as he heard a breaking news story that played on the tv showing the Battle of London. Steve Rogers gave a speech to Peter that would keep him motivated and he went to London with Captain America in a private Avengers jet. Rogers told Peter that there was nothing nobody could have done. Parker asked if he got a hold of Tony but Rogers put his head down in disappointment but there was no time. Parker and Rogers skydived off of the Avengers Quinjet into London just as Beck launched his assault with the elemental fusion combining the properties of the previous elementals. At the same time at Stark’s house the Battle of London had begun as the news told the world that the Avengers have come to stop the elemental fusion with Spider-Man and Captain America on foot. Stark’s door opened and Happy ran into the house calling for Tony who was with Rhodes as the two saw Stark crying in his living room floor with two bodies in his hands. Happy Hogan replayed a message from Tony Stark’s suit that revealed who planted the bombs and it was a former worker known as Quentin Beck. He showed Stark the message that Rogers left earlier while Rhodes got Tony out of his house where the police, fire and ambulance showed up and Tony watched motionless as his family was being put into an ambulance where they were declared dead in front of him and it was all because of an ex-Stark employee named Mysterio. Stark knew who the killer was and ended up and decided to go after him. Tony checked his phone and he had hundreds of messages from Peter Parker telling Tony that Beck was evil and how everything was fake from the start. Friday revealed that some of Stark’s systems were hacked from Edith. Tony snapped as Edith was in the hands of a murderer and Parker was the one to give it away leading to his family being killed. He couldn't take any more of this. It was as if it all hit Stark and now because of old Tony’s downfall and losing his arm after snapping away Thanos and his armies he stopped taking responsibility and  he blamed himself for everything. The world needed Iron Man and he stood by letting the chaos just unfold. Gliding over making their way into the illusion Parker and Rogers battled swarms of mysterious drones destroying the elemental fusion illusion. Beck re-ordered the drones to then attack Spider-Man and Captain America. It exhausted Parker to use all of his web fluid. Meanwhile, during the attack on London Rogers went to rescue Parker’s friends but as the drones were nearing them in he had to take them into a secure place and the only one nearby was the vault of the royal Crown Jewels. Inside Parker’s friends opened up with Captain America but Parker used an improvised tactic that blew a hole through the drone's defenses and he reached Mysterio while he fought briefly with Spider-Man trying to trick him again with his drones. Parker dodged most of the drones before a bright light came while Captain America watched from afar as he dodged more drone attacks and they saw Iron Man appear before them with an army of six Iron Legions giving Spider-Man the advantage. He used his webs while Mysterio was distracted before knocking him to the ground. Beck was caught by one of the drones where Spider-Man saw Beck get shot by a repulsor beam. Spider-Man thanked Tony for stopping him and as Tony ignored him he walked towards Beck but it was already too late. Spider-Man took the glasses as he was ready to shut down the drones but Tony pointed his hand at Spider-Man to surrender the glasses to him. Peter gave them as Stark called off the attacks before shooting Beck in the face killing him for good. The brutality confused Peter as Iron  Man wasn't this ruthless. Tony looked into Peter’s eyes as he told Peter what happened and that Mysterio killed his family. Steve Rogers managed to get to the top of the bridge where he met with Stark and Parker. The three of them stood as Beck’s body laid there motionless. Rogers said that he was sorry for what happened and Tony told him not to be sorry and that it was his own fault for not being powerful enough. Tony said “maybe we shouldn't have gotten rid of the Infinity Stones. Rogers looked intothe soulless eyes of Tony Stark who flew away while Peter was silent and he took his mask off asking what did they do with Tony. Rogers said that even he didn’t know what the next course of action was going to be. After the death of Tony’s family and Beck Spider-Man swung through the city while the avengers united and agreed that they would be working closely with new heroes to stop threats like London from ever happening again while at the same time the Daily Bugle came out and gave their condolences for the Stark family who was killed by Mysterio. The signal went out and showed Tony Stark. Everyone was silent and confused. He told the world that now the time is herefor Iron Man to spread fear as he told the world that after a long thought everyone turned their heads away while he knew that the world needed saving from another Thanos threat telling the world that he was building more weapons than ever before and told any criminal that his Iron Legione would arrest them and vowed that no one will ever lose a family member or friend from crime again. He stated that Stark Industries will work together to put a suit of armor around the galaxy. Spider-Man was shocked to hear it but knew that things were getting serious.   

                                                                   Ultimate finale The message was heard worldwide and a cry for crime to end was in the air. The message haunted everyone present as Tony Stark transmitted a message to every criminal in the world that he would come for them while Spider-Man in New York City after the events of London where Tony murdered Mysterio and gave up Edith to him didn't know what his old mentor thought of him now and his actions led to the deaths of Pepper and Morgan which was Tony’s only family. The impact of this was surely not going to be good. The crowd of people roared through the city cheering that there was finally going to be peace and Stark was the one who would lead them to justice but the problem remained “¿What Tony Stark would do now? After his family was annihilated in seconds Parker watched people on the streets going wild as Iron Man fans screamed and he had a weird sense that the blame would have been on him if not for Mysterio being killed and even his identity could have been compromised but because of Tony’s actions of being able to act fast enough Tony took the blame and exposed Mysterio before he would act with the rest of his plans. Spider-Man turned his head to see MJ who was in the crowd down below as she looked uncomfortable being down there and in a split second Spider-Man dropped below as people ran towards him asking if he was Iron Man’s sidekick. People wanted photos and they called him a hero. Peter wanted to embrace it but because he knew the full extent of his and Tony’s actions Spider-Man grabbed MJ swinging towards a massive skyscraper. MJ  asked Peter if he was okay as Peter paused for a moment while he told MJ that he wasn't sure he was worried about Tony and what he was capable of. If only he didn't trust Mysterio then maybe Tony’s family wouldn’t have been killed. MJ slapped Peter across the face saying that he wasn’t to blame and he couldn't blame himself for their deaths. Peter took his mask off with tears sitting down on the skyscraper as he looked at his mask and all Spider-Man has ever done was bring pain to other people. MJ could never understand this stuff as being a hero was the most challenging thing and he thought that maybe his dreams of being an Avenger and that friendly neighborhood Spider-Man were put to rest. MJ tried to take Peter’s mask before moving it away from her and there was a silence. The two just looked at each other as MJ said that Captain America might be able to help him until Peter said that he would help himself dropping the mask down below while the mask flew in the air and the two watched it go down the bridge. Peter said “sometimes you need to give up what you want the most and even your dreams” Peter had enough of these games as the time for being a hero was over letting the big players take over with something he thought about for a while while  Peter took MJ back to her place before Parker walked away with his head down into the darkness of the night. At at the same time a loud mechanical noise could be heard echoing in the room as Tony Stark continued to build his Iron Legions and he would never take a break until he snapped throwing his booze to the side of the wall. It smashed into his face leaving a big gash on his cheek as Tony still wouldn't give up building while both his hands were shaking and the music in the background became distorted. Tears filled up with each passing moment. He flipped over the table and threw all the parts away blasting everything insight before dropping to his knees. Stark realized he had blasted one of the only pictures of him with Morgan as he picked up the shattered photo and cried. Tony thought to himself “¿why did it have to be this way? After trying to protect everyone and the only family he had he couldn’t protect a terrible incident. The guilt was too much for him to take. Tony thought about taking his own life to be with his family but at the same time he was Iron Man he could gain his family back but it would take everything to do it. An idea sparked in Tony’s mind. He thought ¿what if he could somehow build a multiversal teleporter to send him to a world where his family is still alive? Knowing what he needed to do Stark started building manically. The next day Peter met with Ned and MJ at the school cafe talking about how they were getting prepared to go to MIT after being accepted. Ned asked Peter how he would balance college life and Spider-Man before the news hit in New York City. “Spider-Man no more” the Daily Bugle had found Spider-Man’s costume in an alleyway. J Jonah Jameson confirmed that it was the official suit and that Spider-Man gave up his crusade as Flash who was in the calf couldn't believe his eye yelling at everyone about the breaking news while Peter put his head down and Ned was confused asking Peter why. Peter snapped at them as he said that he was the one who was always sticking his neck out for others and looking at what it cost which was the death of Tony’s family. although Steve Rogers was training him to become a better hero there's always going to be the sacrifice play and Peter said he didn’t wanna become the same thing that Tony became. He just wanted to be a normal kid from now on and Peter grabbed his backpack before running off. He slammed the doors of the top roof as he left the school. He got a phone call from May. He took his phone out and listened to the call where she said “With Great Power Must Come Great Responsibility” before Parker hung up the call. His spider sense went berserk as a loud sonic boom knocked Parker to the back wall and he fell to the ground looking at his nose with blood dripping down from it. Parker  saw from the distance robots flying in all sorts of directions as Tony Stark’s Iron Legions were deployed while everywhere in the world while some robots flew throughout the city and one of them is near the school. Peter looked to see them walkingeverywhere before Peter’s spider sense went off as the robot extended his hand out before blasting a hole through a car instantly killing the driver while screaming echoed in the distance and more shots were heard in every direction. Peter was shocked at what had happened as the robots were going after anyone who had broken the law and even broken the law previously even if it was a petty crime. Tony’s Iron Legions were spread out killing without any mercy while Peter knew this wasn't the way to deal with criminals as it went against his beliefs. He took out his web shooters at that moment before an Iron Legion could kill again as Peter webbed up the bot before knocking it back onto a wall killing it while it’s head rolled near Peter before blowing up in front of him and the rest of Tony’s Iron Legions created a target for Peter Parker after attacking one of the bots. This caused the Iron Legion to categorize Peter Parker as a criminal while he knew that something was wrong as Peter dodged the rest of the robots on thestreet and people at Midtown heard noises coming from outside. They ran outside and started crowding the area. Parker fought one after another on the street and started looking back on his shoulder seeing people with their phones out. He screamed telling all of them to “GET BACK” as Peter told them not to engage while he was shot in the left leg screaming in pain falling to the ground and he screamed webbing the rest of them up. Peter couldn’t think of how the rest of his life would play out by the end of the day as everyone was going to know that he was Spider-Man but that didn't matter because Parker thought with no fear in his heart and anger in his soul as he fought for the greater good to protect his friends and maybe he was wrong about Spider-Man. Maybe everything leads up to this point as Parker had flashbacks of him and Tony when he first became Spider-Man while Peter was getting shot by unibeams in all directions. He could only think of the good times at that moment before he heard a voice in his head telling him “you did good kid” before Peter looked around everywhere closing his eyes. Peter Parker is spider-man and he was now dead. The Iron Legions executed Peter Parker on the street shooting him dead. Parker fell before the robots flew away saying “target eliminated” while Ned and MJ cried out running to Peter’s aid but it was already too late as the Iron Legion continued to cause havoc in the streets while the crowd of people took their phones out and the world knew what was happening. Parker’s death was being projected to everybody who lived in New York as everyone wanted to know what was going on and when the news hit and Captain America found out he was mad. Rogers rushed to Stark’s home realizing what Tony’s actions had caused while Stark had created his multiverse teleporter with a unique world that might have his family as Steve Rogers went there with an intent to kill his former friend earlier before the Iron Legion were deployed to kill every and any criminal but Tony was drunk and depressed about everything. He knew that the world had tricked him and he felt as if he had been conned. He continued working on the machine and was prepared for the finishing touches but before he could click the button he felt someone was watching him. Strange flew below to meet with Tony while Doctor Strange asked how he knew he was here and Tony just said that he knows when his cloak waves in the air. Tony smiled and asked Stephen why he was there. Tony asked what he wanted and Strange said that “what you got there can cause chaos in the multiverse”. Doctor Strange explained that if Tony does this it could create an imbalance that would cause the multiverse to break open into madness’s and there will be no way home for him if he travels there. Stark’s patients were levering while tony said that he needed to do this for his family as he couldn't live without them as Stark called Stephen a hypocrite for seeing multiple universes play out when they defeated the Mad Titan but Stark then blamed Strange for everything that happened to him and Strange said that “it was the only way”. Stark pressed the button but Strange then used the spell by multiplying himself that created a holographics duplicate of Strange trying to tire out Iron Man while Doctor Strange then went behind Stark knocking him out of his body as Doctor Strange said “we never lose our demons Stark.  We only learn to live above them”. Tony watched himself floating away from his body looking at his missing arm while Tony agreed that he would live above them after having his family back before some of Tony’s Iron Legions caught Doctor Strange off guard while Tony went back into his body taking the opportunity as the Iron Legions then proceeded to fight with Strange and one of them managed to grab Stephen by his neck pinning him to the ground before Tony activated the worldwide Iron Legion alert alerting all of them to help aid him. Tony clicked the button and was getting ready to jump into the multiverse before Strange’s cloak came from behind choking Tony Stark and he used his unibeam to blast a hole through the cloak. As this happened Doctor Strange summoned daggers throwing them into the machine and breaking it with his last powers. Stark screamed “NO” as the machine caught on fire and Stark tried to fix it but he was electrocuted. It was giving Tony third degree burns on his face. Strange yelled for Tony to stop and he flew back from the explosion defeated. Doctor Strange grabbed his cloak walking over to Tony’s body as he was getting ready to kill him but Tony jabbed a nano blade through his gut as he was about to say his goodbyes. Stephen Strange gasped as his body collapsedto the ground while Doctor Strange crawled trying to get away from Tony and as this happened Tony’s radio crackled. It glitched but it had told him that his Iron Legions killed Peter Parker as Stark’s face then dropped after he was informed of the death while he walked over Strange’s body ready to kill Strange but a shield hit the back of Tony’s head and Tony turned to his side to see Steve Rogers. Steve screamed Tony’s name as Tony picked up Cap’s shield remembering when he gave it back to Rogers when they would defeat Thanos while Stark said that he would take his family back before impaling the shield into Doctor Strange’s body killing him for good as if he couldn’t have his family back then everybody would pay. Rogers engaged in close quarters combat with Iron Man who went mad as the fight continued for almost an hour until Tony gained the upper hand stabbing a nanoblade into Captain America’s neck while Rogers coughed and he was on the edge of death. Tony asks Steve for his help but he told him that he never wanted to go down this path and now he knows what it’s like being in the villain's shoes. Steve choked trying to get a word out before he stopped breathing as Tony realized what he had done while he looked at his silver hands with blood everywhere dropping to the ground. Doctor Strange was dead and now his old friend Steve Rogers was dead all because of him andhow he failed everybody. Tony screamed” ¿WHY WHY?”smashing everything in sight. Stark could hear the cries from outside as more and more of his Iron Legion reigned on the city killing innocent people who fought back. He glanced over at his perfect superior machine that was destroyed by his former friends while Tony looked at his robotic arm pointing it at his head before the impossible happened as he was in another place and time when events went correct and Tony Stark was laid to rest. He felt a shift in his house with a loud ringing noise coming from both sides and Stark screamed louder than he ever had before. Tony fell backwards as if he did shoot himself as maybe he was dead while all Tony could hear now was a tv playing in his room and things looked different. There was no beer, panic in the streets and his Iron Legions were gone as the broadcaster showcased the battle between Spider-Man and a mysterious figure on the bridge. Tony’s vision was blurry but what he saw wasn’t right and when he rubbed his eyes Peter was just killed but now he’s fighting someone else. Stark opened the doors to his surprise and that it was a lovely day out. He was shocked that the outside of his home was different as  Tony walked closer to the lake where he saw something floating while he felt calm and different about things like if all of his problems have gone away and the floating flowers came closer to Stark where he picked them up  and it said “In memory of Tony Stark”. Tony then dropped the flowers and at the same time Spider-Man in this universe had already casted a spell that would try and make everyone forget who Peter Parker was and after messing up the spell with Doctor Strange not only did Peter try getting into MIT but the Doctor Strange of this universe has created a spell that would send other villains and people to this universe while whoever knew peter parker was was being seen here. Peter finds himself caught in his web while fighting with Doctor Octopus as Ock asked “¿where is my machine? before engaging in close quarters combatwith Spider-Man and while the fight continued Ock had Peter right where he wanted him gaining some of Peter’s nano technology. Ock said “goodbye” but was shot with a unibeam in the back. Ock screamed in pain with his arms wailing everywhere before being knocked unconscious. “Hey kid”. Peter turned his head to hear the impossible. It couldn’t be. “Mr. Stark”. Peter said in a bone-chilling voice taking a good look at who was before him. Peter asked what was going on, why was he here and who was this other guy. “Peter” Tony said before the two hugged and at that moment Tony and his mask had a tear going down his cheek. What had he done. Tony told Peter that he was not from around here. He didn't know what was going on but he needed to find answers. Ock was down for the count as the two inspected him. Tony scanned Otto where Tony found out hat he didn't have the same signature and that the readings indicated that this mysterious person was from another world. Peter couldn’t make any sense of it. He knew the multiverse was real now and what laid before him was his old friend. Peter’s spider sense went off yelling for Tony to “GET DOWN”. A pumpkin bomb had rolled on the ground. Everything went silent. The bomb made a ticking noise and it got louder with each passing moment before a large explosion came from it. Tony looked up to see the man that was in his dreams. Ock woke up and ran to see that he was trapped in some magical room. Tony looked around and he too was trapped. He asked Peter to let him free until Doctor Strange came into the room. The man in the green suit laughed. The  laugh made Tony’s heart skip a beat before everything around the three of them then changed. Strange explained that the spell Peter had ruined was leaking to everyone who knows Peter Parker’s Spider-Man and that there are still people out there that need to be sent here home looking at all of them knowing what he had done to the Doctor Strange of his world. Tony felt that he needed to keep quiet. Peter thought about it and realized what had happened. Peter asked for help and Strange said that there was nothing he could do for him and that he would have to clean up his own mess. Peter turned back to see Tony and Otto. Otto recalled knowing the man in the green suit. Peter asked who it was before being yelled as he said that it was Norman Osborn a brilliant scientist but he became greedy and lazy. Tony asked the kid for help. Tony yelled for Doctor Strange turned around and told Tony that he didn't want to hear his story and that there was enough to deal with right now as him being here would cause damage in their universe. Peter looked back as he missed seeing his old mentor and knew that with Iron Man’s help they could bring all the people here. Tony explained that Strange was right but at the same time he could be of use to help send everyone back. Iron Man then took his mask off revealing all the cuts and burns on his face. Peter said “¿what happened to you tony?”revealed the events of his universe. He started talking and told Strange and Peter how he lost his family to mysterio and wielded the gauntlet to defeat Thanos in his universe. Doctor Strange told Peter that he could be lying about anything. They didn't want to trust him but Peter was shocked asking how he survived as he died using the stones in this universe. Even Doctor Strange was confused. Maybe there was a universe after all where Stark lived. Peter wanted to listen more of the story but Strange told him that there wasn't much time left equipping Peter with the mystical box that would allow him to catch and capture any of the people in their universe. Peter still asked Doctor Strange for help where Strange decided that if this version of Iron Man were true he would need to prove himself by letting him help. Peter found the rest of the multiverse people. This changes the course of history because Peter won't be gaining the help of MJ and Ned to find the rest of them. Doctor Strange said “don’t make me regret this” before releasing Tony from his imprisonment. Tony said that he wouldn't regret this. Peter and Tony went off to find one of the villains. Peter asked Tony what happened to him in his universe. Tony told Peter that almost the same happened but Mysterio never revealed his identity to the world because he had killed Mysterio before hand. Peter kept silent for the rest of the pursuit in the back of his head. Peter wanted to trust Stark but he felt that something was amiss and couldn’t yet figure it out. The duo figured that one of the multiverse people was in their location but while they circled and scanned the area Tony yelled for Peter to “GET DOWN”.  A man rose from thin air. Peter asked if he was from a different universe before attacking Spider-Man and Iron Man. The man's powers were gravitating towards Tony’s arc reactor. Tony dodged an attack from Electro who started laughing knowing the power felt different. He started shooting large yellow bolts at Tony and Peter. Peter got shot in the back screaming in pain before Tony used a suit to throw himself into the bolts overloading himself. A massive unibeam went into Electro’s direction knocking him down. Electro was dazed by the attack and was hit from behind by Sandman who came out of nowhere. Sandman asked what the hell was happening. Peter screamed that he was from another universe but could use an extra hand. The three of them then stopped Electro. Electro was losing his power. Tony started sucking the energy from him to power his suit. Tony laughed before Peter asked if he was killing him. Tony said “it doesn't matter kid. We need to do what we can”. Electro screamed in pain before a massive explosion knocked Peter and Sandman back. Tony flew down extending his hand out. Peter took his hand and asked “¿what happened back there?” Tony told Peter that some of these guys needed to be killed. It was something they needed to do. “I know you Peter and you would do whatever it takes to protect your loved ones even if youneeded to kill the person hurting them”. Sandman asked Peter what he had in his hand. “Just trust us” Stark said before Sandman lashed out. He didn't know if he could trust them after he had just witnessed Tony kill somebody. Sandman got angry before Tony shot a massive blast that caused Sandman to turn into pure glass where he was then shattered in front of Peter. Tony laughed. He knew all of their weaknesses and with his help they might allow him to stay in this universe. Peter couldn't believe it. He had let Tony kill two people already. Peter felt bad but deep down maybe he was right about killing. Peter alongside Iron Man came back to the Sanctum Sanctorum. Doctor Strange asked where the rest were and Iron Man said that they took care of it and wouldn't need the box anymore. Strange gave Tony a weird look but agreed to it. Their sacrifices were meaningless in the grand calculus of the multiverse. Peter’s phone rang and Tony told Peter to pick it up and that he would wait for him. Peter asked May what was wrong. Aunt May told Peter that somebody was here to see him. Peter’s eyes widened. It was the guy onthe bridge. Peter immediately hung up the phone. Strange asked what was going on and Peter said that it was the creepy guy who attacked them earlier. Tony said that he would stay here in the Sanctum as it might be a bit weird walking around like a dead version of Tony Stark. Peter nodded and ran to Feast. Tony began to talk about how he wanted to stay in this universe when it was all said and done. Doctor Strange disagreed and told him that he would need to return to his original universe and complete the spell. ¿”how would you stop me? Stephen Strange turned his head as Iron Man pointed his repulsors at him. Doctor Strange knew that something was amiss all this time and letting him get closer to Peter was dangerous. Doctor Strange turned but before he could do anything he got shot. Tony laughed and told Strange that he already killed him in his universe. Strange fought back but Tony’s superior suit was much more powerful than Doctor Strange. The two got into a close combat before Strange used the magical blades to cut through Tony’s mask as angered fueled Tony and his love for his family was more powerful because he had a chance to see and live with them again. Tony fought with an inch of his life but while he was fighting Strange made a deal with the villains to help him in exchange for their lives. Ock and Lizard agreed as the two were let loose and ganged up on Iron Man. Tony easily cut through Lizard. The Lizard screamed in pain before being choked and slammed to the ground while Otto manically rushed to help Strange. Tony backflipped over Doc Ock easily shooting him in the back. Ock screamed but the scream was so fast as if you couldn't hear it. A loud thud could be heard as the body laid motionless. Doctor Strange slowly got back up and told Tony that one choice and moment could destroy an entire universe. Tony said “if i could somehow go back and fix this i would but it's too late for me. I’ve become the very thing i fought against and there's no turning back now”screaming. Tony Stark ended the life of Doctor Stephen Strange. Every sound could be heard in the sanctum. The drip of water and blood was everywhere. It was almost the same scene in this universe but now just another Doctor Strange. Tony looked at his hands with blood pouring down him. ¿What would Morgan think of her dad with the way he killed all these innocent people and knowing her father would become a monster? Parker had picked up Norman Osborn at Feast. Norman and Peter stopped and stood still. They heard crying as Peter ran to see what was wrong and his jaw had dropped “Thanos should have stabbed that dagger into his gut on Titan”. He thought to himself. In contrast tony watched in horror at what he had done. Tony explained how Lizard and Ock escaped but they killed Strange so he killed them. Norman was shocked to see Octavius dead and two others. Tony said that he could proceed to send Norman home now. Norman asked Peter what would happen to him now. Tony said “YOUR DEATH”. Peter’s spider sense went off and a large smile crossed Norman’s face. Tony gave it another look. It was the same man in his dreams tormenting him every day. A loud laugh came out of him before he rolled out of the way. Iron Man was finally broken from the killing and what he had done manically shooting Norman. Norman told Peter to help him and that they needed to stop him. Peter felt split from it and although Tony was his friend an innocent person was being shot at. Peter used his webs on the repulsors and made his choice yelling for tony to “STOP THIS”. Tony explained that he never would go home and that this would be his home as he would live with his family here. “I need to send you home. I’m sorry”. Peter said. “I’ll have to kill you like I killed the rest of them” Tony said. Peter felt a tear go through him. Tony had killed all of them, dragged Doctor Strange into this and now he was dead. Tony shot everywhere. He didn’t care who was on his side anymore. All he wanted was his family Spider-Man agreed and told Norman to take him on the right side while he goes on the left. The two cornered Iron Man. Tony quickly shot Norman’s back. He went flying on the other side of a wall while Spider-Man fought with Tony. Spider-Man  punched Iron man but he dodged the attack kicking Parker backwards. “don't make me do this Pete”. Spider-Man screamed front flipping over Iron Man. Tony turned around before being uppercutted in the face. Stark fell to the ground while Norman came in from the other end and helped Peter exchanging blows with Stark who tried to keep up resembling the time Tony fought with the Winter Soldier and Captain America but this time it was different. Iron Man summoned the nano dagger which was the same one he tried to kill Thanos with 6 years ago trying to do what Steve Rogers did to him. Norman was using all of his might to beat up Iron Man but Iron Man slowly counter-attacked everything getting out of the way before he took his blade. The two got into a massive lockup. Peter knew this needed to end fast and he glanced over his shoulder to see the mystical box that Doctor Strange told him to send all of them home. Because Otto is dead in this universe Peter doesn't figure out that sending the villains back will send them back for good and potentially kill them. Peter sprung his webs to the box and tried to send them back but before he could click the button Norman Osborn smiled at Peter “no good deed goes unpunished” taking a pumpkin bomb and blowing up the entire downstairs of the Sanctum Sanctorum. Iron Man, Green Goblin and Spider-Man flew backwards. Peter lost the box in the rubble but knew it didn't get destroyed. Peter was lying flat on his back. He saw Iron Man walking away from the explosion. He closed his eyes and opened them again before Norman appeared in front of his vision. Peter groaned in pain and the Goblin laughed saying “¿did you think i would help you?” and he took Peter by the neck almost choking him to death before Goblin punched Peter repeatedly spilling blood down his mouth with each hit to his face and the boy turned blue until he stopped. Green Goblin vanished from the scene. The fire started catching everywhere burning the Sanctum. Peter was trapped below and he thought about it. This wasn't his iron man who snapped. This was an evil Stark who lost his way. Peter crawled from the burning debris looking for the box that Strange gave him overlooking what had happened. Peter left the building Green Goblin grabbed the mystical box before leaving Peter to die. He walked out of the burning building and his glider came to him when he got on his glider. Iron Man hovered over him asking for the Green Goblin to give it to him. Goblin laughed. He was never going to get it luring Iron Man to the Statue of Liberty. The two fought another again. Green Goblin’s glider moved just as fast or maybe faster than Iron Man but that wouldn't stop Tony from getting the box and destroying it. Tony felt that if the box were to be destroyed there would be no way of sending them home meaning that he could stay in this universe with no repercussions. Back at the sanctum Peter escaped before people started catching up to him. He used his webs to get on top of the building. Peter sat there with tears ready to hang up the mantle of Spider-Man. Doctor Strange and those others were dead because of him. He took his mask off throwing it off of the building before someone caught it. 2 versions of Peter Parker stepped out of the shadows introducing themselves. They explained how they were in the city and then ran into each other. They came by to the Sanctum as maybe he would be there. Peter-Two asked if he needed help where Peter replied that he ruined everything and Strange was now dead. Peter-Three extended his hand and told him that it wasn't his fault. The both of them eventually encouraged Parker to comeback where Peter-Two handed his mask to him taking the mask. The 3 of them watched the fight over the Statue of Liberty from afar. Everyone watched asthey saw Iron Man battling Green Goblin. Iron Man used a rocket from his wrist that blasted Green Goblin’s glider. The glider flew out of control smashing onto the ground. Iron Man slowly came down telling the green elf to give up the box and extended his hand. Green Goblin smiled before throwing a pumpkin bomb in his face. Tony shielded his face in time but the bomb had ruined a lot of the suit. Electrical sparks started coming from it. This enraged Stark. Tony flew faster than ever grabbing Norman by the neck and squeezing tight before blasting a hole through him. The blast sliced through Norman Osborn like butter. Norman choked putting his hands on his neck but it was already too late. He dropped to his knees and then his side. Green Goblin was dead. The three Spider-Man  came a bit too late. Peter-Two saw Norman’s body lying motionless. This wasn’t the first time he's seen this. Peter crawled up towards the tower. He saw Tony Stark inspecting the box. “Don’t do it” He said. I have a kid and family i need to stay here with them. Peter-Two asks Stark that if he loves his family then why would he continue being evil and kill others. The dreams Stark had all along were over. He killed the man who had haunted him but it didn't take away from the fact that he became a monster. Tony said “i'm the superior one” and he stood there shaking. Peter tried to reason with Tony bringing up old memories of when they were friends and when he became an Avenger striking a chord in Stark’s soul. He thought about what he had done and how he failed his world’s Peter and now this one. Peter asked Tony ¿why doesn’t he see his family and give these poisonous dreams up and visit them? “Now i'm a monster” Tony said. “I need to secure my fate. Peter-Three acted fast before using his webs on Tony’s cybernetic arm pulling the arm off of him. Peter-Two back flipped over Tony while Peter grabbed the box from him webbing the box up. The three Spider-Man engaged Iron Man in a three-on-one battle. Each Spider-Man fought to the brink of death beating the life out of Tony. Peter cried punching Tony over and over again with blood pouring out of his hands. “I tried to live up to the mantle and knowing what could have happened if you were alive makes me sad”. Peter punched Iron Man so hard. The hit echoed in the distance. Iron Man fell to the ground trying to breathe Peter was ready to finish the job until the two Spider-Man stopped him. They told him not to do this and that he needed to be the better hero Spider-Man stopped before Iron Man aimed his hand at the box. Peter kicked his hand and Tony missed the shot and in that split second it was over. Peter grabbed the box as the two other Spider-Man detained him. While this happened a portal opened and it was none other than Wong who had left for his trip. He asked Peter what he had done but after seeing Tony lying there defeated and the two other Spider-Men Wong figured that it had something to do with the multiverse. The two Spider-Men webbed Stark while Wong told Peter that his punishment would be for everyone to know he is still Spider-Man for the death of Doctor Strange and many more. He was going to need to live with that burden. Peter took his mask and put it on. Parker accepted that everyone was going to know and he would have to live with that. Peter asked what would happen now. Wong took Iron Man and told him that he would pay for his crimes in the multiverse putting mystical handcuffs on Stark. Wong then looked at the other two Spider-Man and thanked them for their help but they were done here. The three Peters embraced but Wong told them to come with him. All three of them walked into the portal with Wong and Stark. Tony was then brought back to the Sanctum where his punishment was awaiting. Wong explained how Tony broke the rules. Tony was placed in a special cell like the previous ones that Ock and Lizard were in before something happened. Strange noises came out of the Sanctum. All three Spider-Man jumped into action before they could be released back into their home worlds. A evil squid-like demon had been released into the city. Peter-Two nodded his head as they sprung into action but while this happened Tony had been in the cell the whole time but felt as if he was being watched. A voice could be heard saying ¿”do youwant to see your family again too?”...                                                                               

                                                       Ending 2 Peter was ready to finish the job until the two Spider-Men stopped him as they told him not to do this and that he needed to be a better hero. Spider-Man stopped before Iron Man aimed his hand at the box shooting at it as the blast destroyed the box that contained the spell that Doctor Strange had used and it was unleashing into the multiverse. “¿What have you done? Peter-Two said as Peter-Three asked if the world was ending and the multiverse started ripping apart leaking into their world. Instead of fixing things Tony decided to become the man he once was before he was Iron Man failing not only his world but another innocent world and because of his actions Tony cried out. He could fix things . He turned around looking everywhere and before he knew it was far too late for that. The universe was ending and in his actions he created an incursion in the multiverse that would end in madness. Villains from across reality attacked the Spider-Man as Tony escaped the crossfire watching from afar when the heroes were being ripped apart and wars raged with people fighting villains. The world was ending soon and Iron Man’s time was ending. A being appeared to Iron Man calling out his name as Uatu the Watcher appeared as if he was there the whole time asking Tony who he was and he asked for help. The Watcher looked at Tony in disgust “¿what have you done Stark? ¿what have you done? you have doomed yourself and your friends and because of your actions you have destroyed this universe and the next”. The Watcher left Stark and the sky turned purple as beings from acrossthe multiverse came and before Tony knew it the universe had been destroyed by his own hands...                                   

                                                         THE END!

And that is going to be ¿What if Iron Man SURVIVED the Snap in Avengers Endgame and appeared in Spider-Man Far From and No Way Home? I had a lot of time making this fan fiction and this is the longest one I’ve made so far since I have been working on this for a month now and I do believe the first ending could lead to a possible multiverse of madness and multiverse saga with Iron Man but I will do that story in a separate post so be on the lookout for that and more what ifs coming soon. Take care guys and have a fantastic day. Peace out!

i knoooow we’re all sick of the endgame discourse but FUCK if i don’t get fired the fuck up whenever i remember that tony and pepper worked w each other for 10 years before they were in a relationship for another 15 years (10 years + 5 years time skip), they with each other through all the ups and downs, got married, had a daughter literally a two decades long strong relationship but the russo bros & markus and mcfeely really just said fuck it! lets prioritize steve and peggy (only knew each other for 2 years at most, she shot at him with a gun in jealousy, kissed once, she moved on to get married and have kids, he moved on with sharon) at the last minute for nostalgia purposes and killed off tony when he had just gotten his family he had worked so hard for but they can somehow justify not killing clint because he has a fucking family lol

[donutloverxo]

hey i dont think steve was peggy's husband all along because in the movie hulk clearly says that whenever you go to the past it creates an alternate timeline. Steve would never sit his ass down when the world is in fire even when he deserves to have rest. The timeloop theory isnt right to his charcter but the alternate timeline preserves his personality. besides the russos said it was alternate tl and the directors opinions matters in the movie

So what the anon was talking about was this theory -

https://www.digitalspy.com/movies/a28611261/avengers-endgame-captain-america-steve-rogers-peggy-carter/

Which is complete bullshit! Like omg wtf is that guy even saying it makes no sense even he admits it makes no sense😑😑

So I agree with you. If they're going with alternate timlines how about they fucking stick to it!!

My babie @what-just-happened-bro was gonna explain it better to me. Could you pwease🥺🥺

Anyway that's the fun about theories. Movies (even marvel movies lol) are a form of art you can interpret them however you want. But I don't believe this thoery it makes NO sense.

Extraction: The Day Sexy Violence Wasn’t Enough

I was hearing a lot of chatter about Thor's new joint - "Extraction".

I originally wasn't interested, because... well...

I look at the rest of The Avengers, right after "Endgame" -

Capt hung out with real thespians in "Knives Out",

 and now on his way to make a real dramatic mark.

(idk what Jacob did... something he ain’t have no business doing, by the look of his eyes, but Capt has got him)

Black Widow - made us feel with "Marriage Story" 

Iron-Man did a movie for the kids... I think... or this is just a typical weekend for RDJ.

However, Thor said "Give me a bunch of guns and send me away to shoot brown people."

You're better than that, Thor! Plus, I don't really want Chris Hemsworth serious. But, like I said - CHATTER. So, I'm onboard!

Plus, perhaps the best thing for us, in the midst of this pandemic, is to stay inside with sexy ass Chris Hemsworth, and watch a dumb action movie. I don't need nothing deep. I don't want to think right now. Just give us sexiness and killing.

Thor wanted to get as far away from Disney/Marvel as he could. From start to finish, he's looking for somebody to kill.

I guess he also kinda looks like he’s looking for the bathroom. I mean, he’s going to kill people on the way there, but he’s looking... and he doesn’t know if he’s going to make it.

It did take a lil work before they could shoot the movie though, so I’ll rewind a sec. The last time that we saw him, he looked like this.

He had to hit the gym, switch to some light beer (Workout Note: You can't cut beer completed; that's something that crazy people do. You also can't completely cut out pizza. I know they say you've gotta cut breads out, but... that's fake news). Some weights, some squats, half a pizza (instead of a whole), and some light beer. And if you're still not getting the results you want - get lots of money, go to the doctor and the stylist, and you too can look like this - 

I believe that we were all created by God, but some were made on a budget, and others look like Chris Hemsworth.

Now, we're ready!

The plot of this movie is simple. A kid gets kidnapped, and Chris Hemsworth needs to save the day.

That's it.

Chris plays Tyler Rake , who's family was tragically taken from him. You can't get much more generic action hero than that.

We find Tyler jumping off cliffs into the depths of the waters for fun/cuz he's a lil suicidal, and sitting down at the bottom to meditate (even at the bottom of the water, his hair looks amazing). 

From the get-go, you know that Tyler Rake is a bit off.

This mold of generic action hero (we'll say "action star", I think after a certain body count, one can't be considered a "hero" anymore) will be keeping liquor stores in business 

(another workout note: unless you've been engineered by the gods as Chris has, don't try working out on a whiskey diet - it won't end well for you)

, having teammates look at him as if he needs help (which he does), and bad guys aren't going to stand a chance. He has lost his family, and decided he's going to be crazy for the rest of his life.

This movie is in the hands of the Russo brothers (directed "Infinity War/Endgame"). They both brought some depth to the Marvel Universe. Fleshed-out Thanos. Made us get in our feelings.

They said "F that! We're just going to shoot people!"

And that's all that this movie is. I'd tell you more, but there's not much more to tell. Ever meet someone who, for better or worse, they are their career? - that's this movie. It's Tyler Rake killing people... lots of people, to save one kid... whom he just met.

Sometimes, they tried to go a lil deeper. There's a moment when the kid (the kid has a name, but no one in the movie bothered to learn it, so why should I?) starts asking Tyler about his family. Chris is crying his ass off, and the boy keeps asking him questions. Can't you see this man is hurting?! Ya jerk! In this moment, I should have felt something for Chris, but I didn't. I think I got up to get something to eat (maybe I'M the jerk). But, that kinda stuff isn't this movie's strong suit. Let's keep it moving!

Back to bullets, knife fights, rockets, people getting hit by vehicles, and blood spray!

As for that kid - parents teach your children how to run. This kid's form was terrible! Every time that he ran, he frustrated me. Chris would shout "Stay low! Stay behind me!" Nope. He couldn't seem to get that right. Plus, he's so lanky. You gonna get Chris killed, sonn!

I guess this is a decent pandemic movie. A good movie to make-out to... if you don't mind screams of dismemberment in the background. Whatever floats your boat. Like I said, the action and gun play in this movie is right on; if that doesn't get your juices flowing, Chris Hemsworth will:) His prettiness def saves the movie a lil bit. 

Whenever he got into a fight, I felt the need to shout "Not the face!" 

When he was close to fire "Chris, your hair!"

Grade: As good as the action is, something is missing in this movie. David Harbour is in this, and he's great, but not in it enough.

There's a guy that matches Chris's skills, who's really good at action, but he doesn't say all that much.

There's a woman in here who matches Chris's prettiness,

but she's just there to tell Tyler that he's gone too far, and to shoot a rocket (which is bad ass though).

I don't think that this movie is "dumb" enough. It's def not smart, but... it doesn't go enough in any direction, and it takes itself just a lil bit too seriously. It's kinda missing a soul.

I can't say enough about some of these slick action scenes, but at the same time, it felt like I was watching a really good "Call of Duty" game starring Chris Hemsworth. 

I could have just played COD and hung a pic of Chris above my Tv.

I give it an unfortunate C-

There are prob some military fanatics that will enjoy it more than I did. 

"Dude, did you see that blah blah blah 17 with the blah blah... clip... latch?"

"Yeah, bro, that blah blah blah was awesome... blah blah blah."

But, I need a lil bit more, personally.

Though I guess it's still a good make-out movie. Although, I would have had to stop periodically.

*kisses* "Baby, stop a sec. See, that was a perfect opportunity to build some character... to make me care about what's going on. The praphit needs connection."

*kisses* "Wait, wait... Chris has a close-up."

*attempted kisses* "Not when he has a close-up, ok??! We talked about this!"

I had higher hopes, but... still decent.

Ok, so SPOILER ALERT

2 things:

1) There's a villain in here (I didn't mention him, cuz they didn't do much with him). The pretty woman that I mentioned sneaks into the bathroom where the villain is. The villain is finishing up peeing at the urinal, and next to him is the pretty woman, who shoots him in the head.

I wonder though... was she there peeing at the urinal? - like... does she have something going on down there?

2) Tyler Rake dies... or does he?

The kid survives, and is at the bottom of a pool, meditating like his "hero". When he comes up for air, he sees a blurred image that looks a lot like Tyler Rake.

Possibilites:

a) Maybe he gets adopted by someone who looks like Chris Hemsworth (as if)...or who got surgery to look like him.

b) It's one of the other Hemsworths who adopted him.

Kid: "Were you the one who was with Miley Cyrus? Yeah, that's pass for me. I can't have a guardian with such poor judgment."

c) The kid is crazy

d) Ghost Rake! Yes!

e) Tyler is alive! And he was resurrected by witches.

Regardless, I'd be up for a sequel. I'm rooting for "Ghost Rake" and something going on down there with the pretty woman.

Like Tony Stark said himself once: “I’m a pipping hot mess” since he died on screen. I’m sorry, but I’m so emotional about this.

I want to say that I’m sorry if I snapped to some of you. If I hurted your feelings because you are totally okay with Tony’s death. It wasn’t my intention to make someone feel like shit for this.

I am the one feeling like shit because of Tony’s death and I know I will never get over it. NEVER. I can’t be okay with it, I just... He didn’t deserve that awful death and for me choosing heroism over his family (as the Russo bros put it) doesn’t make any sense and I can’t be okay with it. Like I won’t ever be okay with that mess.

I’m mad at Marvel, at the Russo bros and M&M but... 

There’s something I didn’t want to admit during this two months. I’m mad at myself too. For trusting them, for being such a naïve idiot fool, for having hope that they would deliver the happy ending Tony and Pepper deserved. For being such a Marvel Studios stan, for being so blind, for getting myself so deep into this movies. Now I think that it wasn’t worth it, but I did it the same, you know? I invested my time, my hours, my soul, my life. And for what?

That’s what truly HURTS ME.

I’m tired, I feel sorry for myself. For investing so much of my life in this. For being like this. For my obssessions and my coping mechanisms and my hyperfixations. It didn’t end well. You know?

They at Marvel didn’t deserve it. It wasn’t worth it. My trust issues are on fire right now. I ended up so hurt by something that was so dear and important to me. And honestly, it feels SO AWFUL. IT FEELS LIKE BREAKING UP WITH YOUR BOYFRIEND OF 11 YEARS. You try to move on, but deep inside, you still kinda love him and it’s so hard to leave it all in your past. Ugh.
