So many people bombarding my inbox telling me that Tony isn’t as intelligent as I’m making out. I’m sorry but he is more intelligent that I previously and briefly stated. Also, it isn’t just the comics that show this. When Tony gives the GBPP line in Avenger’s, he is being completely serious. He is a genius. The second smartest man in the Marvel world.

You’re telling me that this man can apparently reverse engineer a highly complex and volatile code. Can build intricate suits by the dozen. Can build a particle accelerator in his workshop! And yet he can’t figure out that all he needed to save himself was some electromagnets?

Wtf ever. It’s lazy writing, a total disregard for audience intelligence and a complete lack of understanding of the character of Tony Stark on the part of Pearce.

**.

I don’t think he wanted to remove it - I imagine it’s a form of self-punishment and self-glorification all wrapped into one big symbol no one can miss. In his conversation with Bruce, he refers to it both as a “terrible privilege” and “armor”.

Frostiron AU: Tony’s not sure what possesses him to bring home the stranger he runs into (literally) the night after the funeral. The guy’s total eurotrash and thirty if he’s a day- weird in ways Tony can’t begin to describe. Maybe it’s some freudian-daddy-issue bullshit about older men. Maybe it’s just the cheap vodka.

Wherein in a god practicing his realm hopping, ends up in New York and has a one night stand with a young Tony Stark.

“Urgh, I do not deserve this. Thanks, Thor, really, when this is over I’ll tell all your enemies that you’re not a natural blond, let’s see how you feel then. I shall put the fear of Loki into this untactful peasant. Or the spear of Loki, more likely. Ohoh I might have lost my mind but I’ve still got my brilliant sense of humour. Quite catchy, though.”

Basically I should watch Marvel movies with Raeve more often.

Every time a Frostiron isn’t in any way sexual, an izu offers a cookie to a panda.

Here, Panda, have a cookie.

*takes cookie solemnly*
…hold on a second, does that apply to any fanart featuring Tony and Loki? Not just mine? *7* *goes off to scour the interwebs* Cookieeessss, my preciousssss!!!

I just want MCU Tony and Loki to be BFFs and build me a magic Iron Panda suit, is that too much to ask? uAù People should realize Loki isn’t so bad, once you get past the homicidal tendencies and the mad cackling.

So basically you just negated an entire movie. That’s what you’re saying here Pearce. Tony spent the entirety of IM2 dying, looking for a cure, enduring all kinds of fear and the surety of his body failing him again. Suffered through the trauma of hearing his father call him a ‘creation’ and once again not telling him he loved him so he could find a cure for the palladium poisoning just so in IM3 you could ‘cure’ him with electromagnets?! The very same electromagnets that he would have had lying around his workshop by the dozen in IM and IM2 . The same electromagnets that he HAS HAD IN HIS CHEST THE ENTIRE TIME. And then you don’t even bother to address how exactly removing the arc would have made his chest fucking cave in without reconstructive surgery?! I call bullshit and lazy, lazy writing. You had no clue who the character of Tony Stark was and you took the gig anyway.

I can almost forgive the way the movie plays as Lethal Weapon 10, I can forgive the twist, it is a very Mandarin thing to do, I applaud the way you addressed the anxiety issues, but I cannot forgive the way you took a hero who so many look up to, a hero who saved himself from kidnappers and a certain death with only the few rough tools he had and his own intellect and sheer tenacity and made him nothing. You took Tony Stark’s one true superpower, his intelligence, and made him look like an idiot.

Mandarin is Tony’s second greatest foe (imo) and you didn’t even let him have the killshot. Tony Stark would never, ever blow all his suits. He may dismantle them, but blow them up? With all the raw materials in those suits he could use again? Never. You did all this so Tony could have a’clean slate’? For what? That’s the whole point to Tony. He is a mess of contradiction and issues and he fights through them regardless.

By combining all the above and then having him remove the arc so casually, erasing all his movie history, you turned one of the strongest heroes in the comic world into a weak minded idiot who apparently has no clue about his medical condition or the contents of his own workshop and that, I will never, ever forgive.

THANK YOU.

At least the extremis explanation justified it, c’mon.

I have to disagree with the tags because I feel as though within six hours, Richards and Stark would be in a “I’m the smartest” pissing match. Peter would be to busy fanboying the fuck out over being in the same room as his heros. And poor Bruce would be in the corner doing yoga trying not to Hulk out because OMG TONY SHUT UP AND STOP BAITING REED.

It would end with Hawkeye having to tranquilize them all from an air vent.

"We all have the potential to fall in love a thousand times in our lifetime. It’s easy. The first..."

Sun, 16 Jun 2013 10:55:01 +0100

“We all have the potential to fall in love a thousand times in our lifetime. It’s easy. The first girl I ever loved was someone I knew in sixth grade. Her name was Missy; we talked about horses. The last girl I love will be someone I haven’t even met yet, probably. They all count. But there are certain people you love who do something else; they define how you classify what love is supposed to feel like. These are the most important people in your life, and you’ll meet maybe four or five of these people over the span of 80 years. But there’s still one more tier to all this; there is always one person you love who becomes that definition. It usually happens retrospectively, but it happens eventually. This is the person who unknowingly sets the template for what you will always love about other people, even if some of these loveable qualities are self-destructive and unreasonable. The person who defines your understanding of love is not inherently different than anyone else, and they’re often just the person you happen to meet the first time you really, really, want to love someone. But that person still wins. They win, and you lose. Because for the rest of your life, they will control how you feel about everyone else.””
