are they… you know…….. *imitates crowbar swinging*…… jason todd fans?

Just re-watched Civil War

And had a very sad realization (shocking? Not a bit)

Mid-fight with Steve, FRIDAY says “You can’t beat him hand-to-hand,” and Tony replies, “Analyze his fight pattern.” And then we actually *see* FRIDAY run the analysis in real-time. I’m talking:

Analysis of Steve’s fighting form and the shield,

an in-depth scan of the suit, and finally

Analysis of the literal impact force of Steve’s hits. 

You could read into this in a lot of different ways. But I’ll tell you what it meant to me. 

It meant that in every interaction Tony could conceive of with Steve, in every contingency Tony ever thought through, in thousands of possibilities Tony Stark never once thought he’d have to fight Steve Rogers. Not seriously.

He didn’t have a plan for it. He didn’t have a preset protocol for FRIDAY to call up. Not even close.

Because ready-for-everything-always Tony Stark — the creator of the Iron Legion; the maker of Veronica and the Hulkbuster; the guy who installed an instant kill mode in Peter’s suit; the guy who slept with his suit at his beck and call every night for months; the guy who has been thinking about Thanos since before he could put a name to the imminent threat he foresaw; Tony my-middle-name-should-be-paranoid (with good reason) Stark — never once considered that he’d be up against Steve Rogers. 

I think that’s heartbreaking. And it says a hell of a lot. 

Waiting for Season 2 of The Witcher like:

All my OC!reader fics.

For those who asked, here are my fics (updating as they come) focusing on the reader as a young girl in Geralt’s care. Ages & timings vary. I’ve put them in a relative order of when they’re set.

The reader is my OC, Akela, just with the pronouns/name changed as Tumblr seems to prefer reader!fics. Her version of each story can be found here.

Sticks and Stones - After Renfri’s death, you find Geralt surrounded by a crowd of people throwing stones at him and yelling at him to die. Needless to say, you react in the only way possible. Like a witcher.

Heart of Geralt - Geralt and Jaskier’s first meeting, except with an added twist. Who knew the White Wolf liked raspberries?

The White Wolf and His Pup - Geralt finds a baby girl in the woods, and for some reason, he can’t quite let her go.

Fragile - Geralt deals with a sick baby.

Like Father, Like Daughter - Geralt should have expected his child’s first word to be ‘fuck’.

Raising a Wild Pup - Geralt deals with a tantrum, watches the sun set, and goes swimming. In one evening. That’s his superpower. He calls it fatherhood.

Eleven - For a five-year-old, political events can be boring. Thankfully, Geralt is a master at distracting you.

Fire - It’s your birthday, and you and Geralt celebrate by playing a game.

Book - After a long day, you ask Geralt to read you a story before bed.

Drabble - “I’m bleeding!”

Drabble - “Are you mad at me?”

Drabble - “What the hell are you holding and why is it… wriggling?”

Eye of the Beholder - Geralt has a tendency to cover your eyes whenever a naked person steps into view—as any father does—but this proves to be quite difficult when he first meets Yennefer.

Sex and Apologies - After the djinn causes the building to fall around Geralt and Yennefer, you believe your guardian to be dead. He is, of course, very much alive, and you’re far from happy.

First - You smile at a boy, and Geralt starts to worry.

Little Traveller - While staying at an inn, you sleepwalk, leaving a very uneasy Geralt to come and find you.

Drabble - “Hear my heartbeat? Just focus on that.”

You Make Me Smile - The one thing you should never do is start a tickle fight with a witcher.

Each Other - Geralt would never have believed that he’d one day find himself braiding a teenage girl’s hair, never mind her braiding his… But here he is. And he isn’t complaining.

Like Him - You and Geralt have an argument, and it takes a certain bard to get you to stop glaring daggers at each other and make up.

Dad - Three times Geralt called you his daughter, and the one time you called him ‘Dad’.

A Mother’s Touch - Geralt is great, but sometimes, all you need is a mother’s arms to wrap around you and hold you close.

To Annoy a Witcher - Three times Geralt hated the bard’s song, and the one time he didn’t.

Wild Rabbit - You meet your mother—the mother who, as the stories go, left you to the monsters in the woods. Fortunately, you were found by Geralt before they could get you, but it’s safe to say you’re not happy to see this woman… and neither is Geralt.

Drabble - “I’ll be here when you wake up.”

Drabble - “Where’s Roach?”

Drabble - “You have a stick in your hair.”

Drabble - “You know I love you.”

Drabble - “I’ll always be there for you.”

Drabble - “What the hell are you holding and why is it… wriggling?”

Mud Monster - Jaskier should have known better than letting you convince him to play a prank on Geralt.

To Love and Be Loved - Geralt and Yennefer aren’t exactly the most well-behaved parents when it comes to you and teenage boys.

Fishy Business - Geralt teaches you how to catch fish.

Until the End - After Geralt loses both Yennefer and Jaskier on that mountainside, you’re there to assure him that he’s not alone.

Constant - You’re worried that, once Geralt finds Ciri, he’ll stop caring for you. Geralt’s quick to put your mind at ease.

Jealousy - You meet Ciri, and you are less than happy.

Name Game - Geralt accidentally calls Ciri something he shouldn’t have.

The Pup and the Cub - Geralt leaves you and Ciri to finally sort out your differences.

The Bard and the Barber - Though you’re all too happy to see Jaskier again, there’s one thing that must go: his hair.
