what heroes do

Y'all remember the first time you watched infinity war and it showed the wakandan fight and how everyone was getting weaker, even Bruce in the Hulkbuster and he was convinced that they were gonna lose but then suddenly in comes a big ass fuckin AXE with lightning and it decks like 20 aliens before flying back to Thor and then he just yells “bring me Thanos!!!” and fckin OBLITERATES LIKE 300 ALIENS WHILE THE AVENGERS THEME IS BLARING IN THE BACKGROUND? Yeah.

You know what I think about a lot? Tony Stark reeling in the wake of Civil War, going on 72-hour work benders, trying to clean up everyone’s mess and whip the Sokovia Accords into shape and rebuild the decimated team and figure out how he can build Rhodey a new spine and forget about a metal hand squeezing the life out of his mother, and when Happy reports back to him about Peter he hates himself a little for holding the kid at arm’s length, but everyone who’s in his orbit eventually ends up getting hurt and it’s better for everyone if he keeps his distance, but that doesn’t mean he’s not keeping tabs on the kid and sometimes at 4.30 in the morning when stress and anxiety and too much coffee won’t let him sleep he sits in his office and listens to Peter’s inane voicemail messages and can’t stop the helpless smile from tugging on his lips as he learns about a kind old lady buying the kid a churro and for a moment he feels a little less alone and broken.
