#this is so much#we’ve got Tony asking his child self to take off the armor that’s suffocating him#and his parents blaming him for his problems#‘You let your money- your genius separate you from people! You created your own loneliness son- your own pain!’#while guiding his child self away from him#like I think Tony’s problems go a lot deeper than feeling disconnected from other people because of his intelligence and wealth#he comes up with all these reasons why he can’t show genuine care to other people#and to always be performing some kind of constructed identity#but he also can’t consistently tell what is a performance and what is really him#in this dream Tony has become something initially unrecognizable to his younger self#also I like that the armor burns child Tony when he touches it#marvel#tony stark#my posts#comic panels
