violence time (been a fan of ur takes for ten years now) - 12 & 25??

12. the unpopular character that you actually like and why more people should like them

I am a known Howard Stark apologist, which is definitely the easy answer here since this is not going to be a surprise to anyone. I'm not sure how unpopular Howard actually is, though I see a lot of criticism of him, some of it based on things that are just not true in MCU canon. (Friends, things that are canon in the comics are not necessarily true in the MCU, it's been fifteen years, why is this hard for people to figure out. also what does comics canon even mean, it changes every five minutes.) I don't really want to argue against Howard's negatives (yes, he was clearly not a great father!), though some of how I've seen it talked about is definitely bad-spirited and some of it is just the worst possible interpretation of what's onscreen. I like Howard because he is a mess; either deliberately or by accident having him as a ten-year connecting thread across the MCU has made him a bundle of contradictions that is really interesting characterization which shouldn't be flattened. What Phase 1 does with him, where we only see him through other people's memories in IM1 and IM2, or his own constructed memory (the videos in IM2), and then actually meet him in CATFA is some FASCINATING storytelling, because CATFA Howard is a very different person than IM1 and IM2 Howard. And some of that's the passage of time; Howard and Peggy are really the only characters that we see across a timespan that long, but we never see the constructed reality of Peggy the way we do the constructed reality of Howard.

also come on the man flew a civilian aircraft (branded with his company's name! very clearly a passenger airplane!) through Nazi-occupied Europe to drop an experimental super soldier on a solo mission against orders and on Peggy's word alone, while actively being shot at; he's not a combat pilot! he's not trained to fly through flak! it's an ungunned plane! (AC also heavily implies that Howard is Jewish, which makes this even more personally dangerous for him than just getting shot at.) how is that not an incredibly cool thing?

25. common fandom complaint that you're sick of hearing

"Steve is out of character in The Avengers (or Endgame or AoU)." I actually think that Steve in Avengers is a masterpiece of characterization, it's just all really, really subtle and carried out almost entirely through microexpressions. There's a general unwillingness in this fandom -- in any fandom, really -- to write off anything other than the most basic reading of a character as just being OOC, when it's usually way more interesting to think about why the character is acting that way and what it says about them, which may be unflattering. Like, come on, people, why do you want to take the most shallow reading possible of a character as complex as Steve Rogers? You say you're a Cap fan but you don't want him to be interesting? Get over yourselves.

rook asks!! 17, 34, and 45! :D

17. How'd Rook get those scars?

Well, Korbl's are top surgery scars. Rio and Irri mostly got theirs through various mishaps -- accidental trap setoffs, the like. Irri does have a few from his time in Seheron as part of the Antaam, though. He doesn't show those off as often. Whit's are mostly from training and fights; nothing really significant. And Candy's...well, let's just say her training in the Crows was more comparable to Zevran's than Lucanis's.

34. How does Rook begin their day?

Whit and Korbl are earliest to rise and earliest to be ready for the day -- they tend to do a bit of training together to wake up fully before breakfast. Irri goes outside and shouts at the sky. He loves doing that -- started after he escaped to Arlathan and shouted for joy after he woke up the next morning and found it wasn't a dream. Candy is very much a Do Not Speak To Me Until I Have Chugged This Coffee person. Rio doesn't mind mornings -- so long as they don't have anywhere to actually be before, say, midmorning? Unfortunately, they often do have places to be before then. They grimace and bear it.

45. Who was Rook's closest friend before joining the Veilguard?

I only have a solid answer for one of them. Candy, as a Crow, didn't work alone. Her partner, Allegria, was friend, confidante, and lover. When the Antaam invaded, Allegria was killed, and Candy's resentment toward the Crows began to grow.

what makes venus problematic!!! plz!!!

like i mentioned in my previous answer, venus is largely unproblematic. HOWEVER. the other main problematic thing she has done is uh. accidentally cheat on her girlfriend. with her thought-to-be-dead-but-not-quite-actually-dead ex-girlfriend. in her dreams.

it's complicated. but she did tell her then-girlfriend and she was just like "lol okay venus, i have horny dreams about my probably-dead fiance too it's no big deal"

@soulventure91 I am a very legit Tumblr blogger, yes, thank you! You can trust my opinions on video games and obscure mer characters. Although I am not sure what kind of bits are you talking about

@nerevar-deactivated202003211520 Is it some... fan creation? I know there are some big game conversions in the works, but I am honestly not very familiar with them, I am sorry.

Listen, I am not in the current modding scene, so if there is some huge mod conversion of this name making waves, I am unfamiliar with it, I am sorry. But I am very glad the creators have such an amazing fan base here c:

thematic qs! 2 for sig!!

2. Drawing from the language of flowers, what flower would symbolize them?

Gladiolus. It symbolizes honor and remembrance, but also strength, perseverance, and faithfulness, and ALSO infatuation. The latter is, in this case, read as Siggri's attempts to form deep connections to make themself feel comfortable and supported, but at speed, bypassing the patience it takes to get to really know someone and understand them.
