THERE’S ANOTHER ONE-

Food for Fanfic/Fanart

Orphans/Partial Orphans:

Thor: Watched each family member and best friend die in front of him, one by one. 

Is kind of reckless with rage, but mostly holds it together surprisingly well. Tony Stark: Loses parents in college, spends decades thinking it was a car crash (and likely blaming dad for it), then watches footage of their murder with the apparent killer right next to him, and in the same instance, learns the comrade also next to him admit with no visible remorse that he knew. 

20 minute violent meltdown, then makes no further attempt to go after Bucky.

Next time we see him, Tony is helping Rhodey with his legs. Afterward, Tony puts all effort into mentoring and protecting Peter Parker and defending the Earth from Thanos. Improved personality implies that the Siberia incident also inspired him to seek sought long overdue mental help. 

Wanda and Pietro Maximoff: As children, saw parents killed by missiles with Stark’s name on them, spent days looking at one “Stark” nuke waiting for it to kill them. “Recruited” by Hydra shortly after. 

Committed a number of atrocities while working for Hydra... but they were “recruited” as traumatized kids, switched sides relativity quickly in “Ultron,” Pietro gave his life to save Clint and a kid, and Wanda expressed visible guilt over her past. She also had no ill words for Tony after “Ultron” save “You locked me in my room!”, which she was fine with until Hawkeye convinced her not to be

Also, she joined the Avengers despite Tony being a constant reminder of her parents’ deaths, and as mentioned above, she’s stopped giving him shit for that. 

Steve Rogers: Dad died before he was born, mom died when he was a teenager/young man, apparently no next of kin able or willing to take him in, just Bucky.

Took questionable measures trying to follow in war-hero parents’ footsteps, at an age when young men are most vulnerable to testosterone-fulled stupidity, nad in a time period with some limited ideas about masculinity, and with his medical conditions and always getting bullied for them. 

Bucky Barnes: Unless one of his parents has lived to be VERY very old 

Everything bad he did was under mind control, so.....if you wanna blame Buck for that then go fuck yourself. With a cactus. 

Black Panther: Saw dad killed by bomb

"I didn’t kill your father!” “Then why did you run?” Tried to murder Bucky based on shaky evidence, for at least one full day, not listening to Buck the one time he said he was innocent, it’s not like anyone was making much of an effort to convey Bucky’s innocence to BP. In any case, T’Challa learns the truth, stops letting revenge consume him, defeats Zemo, and saves the shit out of our Buck-muffin. 

Princess Shuri: Dad murdered. 

Does nothing bad.

Erik Killmonger: Found dad’s murdered body. Abandoned by Wakandan relatives. Mom somehow out of the picture. Grew up seeking revenge, and the power to “save” his culture, as he saw it. Willing to murder own relatives and countless innocent children to do so. We feel for him but let’s face it, he’s a bad guy. As Okoye said, “Your heart is so filled with hate, it is not worthy to sit on that throne!” Peter Parker: And Uncle Ben, but we’ll get to that later. 

Peter Quill: Mom dying of cancer in the hospital, while he was a child, was his last experience on Earth. Years later, dad admits directly to Peter that he put the tumor in her head, with no genuine guilt. Also, there’s a graveyard of mountains of the skeletons of Peter’s half-siblings killed by his dad as well (though this oddly isn’t brought up much) Kills his evil dad, with a bit of poetic justice (puts a “tumor” of sorts in Ego’s “head”)

Gamora and Nebula: Parents murdered by Thanos; raised and brainwashed by parents murderer.

Worked for the most evil man in the universe, after growing up brainwashed by him, and both still managed to see the error in this and turn against him

The rest of the Guardians of the Galaxy: Very likely, but can’t say for sure 

Did a ton of questionable stuff, because they’re a ragtag bunch of antiheroes with shitty pasts. 

Hope Van Dyne: Mom “died” when she was a kid, relationship with dad crumbled as a result 

Ava Starr/”Ghost:” Saw parents killed in lab accident

Gradually turned evil after Shield (or Hydra?) manipulated her to be their assassin, and living in constant physical pain all her life. 

Loki: Orphaned as a blue baby, didn’t learn the truth for hundreds of years. Then saw adopted mother die.

Did a ton of evil stuff, killed Phil, but...... he’s such a ham, does anyone take him as a serious villain anymore? He’s basically Plankton from “Spongebob,” just looks better in chains. Love or hate him as you see fit, I don’t really care. 

Other Dead Relatives/Surrogate Relatives:

Thor:

Saw adopted brother die, more than once; had to kill his own sister 

Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes:

Unless all of their relatives are very, very old. 

Steve Rogers:

Saw BFF/surrogate brother Bucky “die,” twice, right in front of him

Wanda Maximoff:

Saw brother die, and works with the man who her brother died to save, a regular reminder of Pietro’s death

Peter Parker: Uncle Ben

Tony Stark:

Surrogate son dusted in his arms, while begging not to go and then saying “I’m sorry,” leaving Tony coated in his remains

Black Panther:

Forced to kill own cousin

Shuri:

Brother was forced to kill their cousin 

Dr. Strange: 

Dead little sister he couldn’t save 

Peter Quill:

Mountains of skeletons of his half-siblings killed by his dad; also, saw adoptive father die in his arms, giving his life to save his  

Nebula:

Adopted sister murdered by evil “dad” (who also probably killed her parents and possibly siblings) 

Rocket:

Loses entire surrogate family, the one he’s closest to right in front of him, as a kid 

Dead Lovers:

Peter Quill: Was willing to keep his promise and kill Gamora--his last living loved one after losing literally his whole family--to save the universe. Fails. Thinks he can rescue Gamora after all. Learns of her murder with the murderer inches away from him.

Loses it for, at most, one minute. Then gets right back into the fray. Only real question is why the others didn’t anticipate this, and restrain him with their super-strength/magic 

Wanda Maximoff: Was willing to kill Vision, her last living loved one after losing her whole family--to save the universe. Thanos steals this sacrifice, and murders Vision right in front of her. 

Gets dusted right after 

Steve Rogers: Saw his first love dying of old age, and had to bury her 

Hank Pym: Or so he thought for enough decades, it may as well count 

Valkyrie: Saw comrade and lover killed in battle (behind scenes info confirms this was her lover) 

Lost hope in her duties as a Valkyrie, helped the Grandmaster capture and kill innocents... but then turned against him and helped Thor save the world from Hela

Carol Danvers: Probably, according to her backstory

Deaths They Thought They Were Witnessing:

Steve Rogers:

Saw Bucky fall to his “death,” thought he was dead for years

Tony Stark:

Saw Pepper “die” after failing to catch her (and seeing her tortured) 

Peter Quill: Fired to kill Gamora, only for the blast to become bubbles  Everyone in “Black Panther:” Thought they saw T’Challa killed by Killmonger

Hank Pym: Thought he saw wife die before him, spent decades thinking she was dead and losing relationship with his daughter for it  

All Survivors of the Snappening:

Probably 

Physical Torture:

Tony Stark: Water-boarded in a cave, after heart surgery with no anesthesia  Pepper Potts: Roasted alive  Bucky Barnes: Hydra guinea pig for 70 years  Gamora: Part of her indoctrination as a child Nebula: Pulled apart by Thanos to get info from Gamora Dr. Strange: Squidward’s pin cushion  Rocket Raccoon: “Taken apart and put back together” 

Ava Starr: Childhood accident left her in nonstop pain all growing up 

Thor: Electrocuted while restarting that artificial planet to get Stormbreaker

See above

  Bucky Barnes:

Winter Soldier transformation

  Tony Stark:

Car-battery in chest 

Gamora and Nebula:

Part of being “adopted” by Thanos

Bruce Banner: Lab accident

Ava Starr: Dad’s lab accident 

Guilt Complexes:

Tony Stark:

Shut down weapons company and became Iron Man after seeing how his weapons were being misused, confessed guilt at public press conference while seated down under the podium; worst fear is teammates and world dead because he couldn’t save them; built Ultron to prevent this from happening; donated huge sums of money to college kids and signed Accords over Ultron guilt; “...and if you died, I feel like that’s on me. I don’t need that on my conscience.” 

Guilt about trying to kill Bucky not directly addressed, but as he’s made no further attempt to go after Bucky, it’s highly likely that Tony has learned more about Bucky’s situation and, having seen Hawkeye mind-controlled and having personal experience with mental illness, probably doesn’t feel great about Siberia. 

Wanda Maximoff:

 “This is all because of me!” at destruction caused by Ultron: visibly horrified by her misfire in CW; says “I’ve caused enough trouble” when Hawkeye is first trying to recruit her; tells Vision he should keep his word to Tony Stark in IW; and is visibly upset at news of Tony going missing on the spaceship (bear in mind, she has seen Tony’s worst fear, and heightened it) 

Bucky Barnes:

 “But it was still me.” “I remember them all.” 

Steve Rogers:

Blames self for Bucky’s first “death” in CA:TFA. Questionable “apology” letter to Tony at least includes phone, and promise to be there for anything, risking capture. Steve probably does feel bad, even if he’s not that great at expressing it with words. 

Bruce Banner:

Need I say more? 

Thor:

Survivor’s guilt is pretty obvious. Also, guilt and humility were requirements for being able to lift the Hammer in his first movie. 

Natasha Romanoff: 

“You think you’re the only monster here?” 

Dr. Strange: Failed to save little sister, and then the Ancient One 

Scott Lang: Feels like a failure to his daughter, more so after “Civil War,” clearly has at least mixed feelings if not outright regret about his role in CW

Hank Pym: Blames self for wife’s “death” 

Ava Starr: ....maybe? We’ll have to wait and see.

Everyone else:

Survivor’s guilt to some degree is clear every time a comrade, mentor or civilian dies. 

I’ll probably update this as I think of more.
