Tony loses Jarvis in Ultron (still not forgiving that), he loses Pepper here, and nearly Rhodey. The man's not in a happy place in terms of support.
A man walks down the street in that hat, people know he's not afraid of anything.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
The man's not in a happy place in terms of support.
Oh, he's definitely not. He has PTSD from Manhattan and he has a lifetime of issues from even before he ever ended up in that cave in Afghanistan. He needs intensive puppy therapy.
I'm not anti-Tony, but I am anti-Tony's choices.
I can't stress enough how much I loved the scene where Tony recruited Peter. It got me so hard in all the feels. His entire demeanor with this kid, this insanely brilliant orphan who is JUST LIKE HIM, was a thing of beauty.
Most of me really wants to believe that Steve actually addressed the letter to "Tony Stank."

Meanwhile, on meme, anyone saying anything critical about Tony is being told they are clearly just an awful Stucky shipper. Sigh. The MCU fights there: worse than ever. I just wanted to find more Natasha discussion!

Plei, I would totally buy Tony pretending to speak for all the Avengers in negotiating the Accords. But they needed to show that. Also, Natasha would have known, or she's nowhere near the spy she is sold as.
I also thought the fight scene at the beginning was very shaky-cam-ey. I had to close my eyes several times there.

I could maybe watch Steve kicking a truck to hit a guy like a full day on loop. just sayin.

The post-credit scene was a thing of beauty. "Who hit you!" "His name's Steve. And he had a really big friend. He's from Brooklyn."
Tony being all protective of Peter in the fight was sweet.
But now I'm wondering where the hell that book is.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'm wondering where that book is too. Also I missed ALL the Bucky-Natasha interesting interaction somehow. Might've lost it in Bucky's hair. Gotta go see it again.

I'm working on a fic to resolve that question as we speak. If I don't obey the fic muse when she speaks, she may stop speaking to me altogether.
