Also can we please just talk about VIRGINIA FUCKING PEPPER POTTS???!!!

Who has been with us since the beginning. Who has been in love with Tony Stark for over a decade and has never once put up with any of his bullshit. 

Who has had to watch Tony nearly die in almost EVERY SINGLE movie that she’s been in.

Who KNEW that the moment Tony told her he’d invented time travel that was it. That the ticking clock on the rest of their lives had started and that these were going to be their last days together. That he almost definitely wouldn’t come back to her safe and sound.

And yet she STILL told him to go and fight. Because she loved him so much that she knew he’d be living a half-life if he knew he could have saved his friends. She’d already seen him lose sleep for years and couldn’t bear to see him live that way for the rest of their lives. 

Pepper Potts who, in the end, flew into battle in a suit of armour beside her husband. 

Pepper Potts who had to watch the love of her life die and still kept her composure and kept her cool, choosing to let him know she and their daughter would be okay without him so that the last thing he would feel was peace and the last thing he’d ever see was her smiling face. It wasn’t until after he was gone that she let herself break down.

“You’re going to kill yourself, Tony,” she once said to him right at the very start in 2008. “I’m not going to be a part of it.”  11 years later, she’s the one who found the strength to help him die and hold his hand while it happened.
