rhaenicent? for ship game?

(i know nothing about that show but like. lesbians. 👀)

thanks 💞

yeah that's the right energy, i'm personally only watching for the lesbians and olivia cooke i mean have you seen her oh my god

vomit / don’t ship / okay / cute / adorable / perfect / beyond flawless / hot damn / screaming and crying / i will ship them in hell 

completely obsessed with them. nothing beats childhood best friends who are obviously in love with each other to stepmother and stepdaughter to enemies to almost making up to enemies again to one attacking the other with a knife to almost making up again to whatever they had being lost forever.

no one does it like them. they invented messy lesbian divorce, theirs even started a whole civil war!

busy writing rn but i just thought to pop in for a sec before i lock my phone away from me again and boooyyyy. your steve post really hit me.

this might not make sense to anybody but me but an exploration of possible identity issues/conflict(s) and various degrees and types of existentialism is somethin' i'd read tbh. i feel like how people (americans mostly if not entirely) insist on seeing steve would breed a lot of internal frustration/conflict in him and it sounds like damn good fun from a story/writer view

i read your ask and immediately started Vibrating™ because this topic has been on my mind for a minute now, especially as i've been writing this charming man. like brat taming smut aside, somehow this fic has become an exploration of personhood and how we view ourselves, how society views us, and how those two points of view may conflict with each other.

i feel like both steve and tony suffer from this degree of depersonalization but on opposite ends of a spectrum. this is something that you see a lot with celebrities; the second you're thrust into the public eye, you belong to the public in a sense, and everyone's going to have an opinion about you regardless of how well they know the circumstances of your life.

with steve it's definitely descended into the worship category and i feel like that's a direct result of his sacrifice at the end of c:atfa. something like that obviously went down into the history books and immortalized captain america as this personification of america and its values on par with uncle sam.

steve wakes up from the ice and he isn't a person anymore! his sacrifice/efforts in the war have become so venerated that people don't see the man underneath the cowl. they don't know that even without the super soldier serum, steve still would have did all of the batshit things he did as captain america or died trying because that's just the kind of person he is. he believes in doing good because it's the right thing to do and the serum and the shield and the name have absolutely nothing to do with that.

it's been very fun having steve pushing back against the captain america image in this charming man, especially going up against howard, who i feel kind of spearheaded the "captain america is a god" movement.

my eyes spy a character opinion ask game, so you know what im here to do.

i want the opinions™ on the emh!avengers 👀

(or just tony, and 2 other characters of your choice if the avengers is too many characters.)

thank you so muchhhhhh for the ask! :D

i started trying to answer this by narrowing down which 3 characters to put up on the bingo board and you can clearly see how well that went jfkdsljfdfk

Tony Stark

EMH!Tony characterization AND character design is so fucking *clenches fist* just!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know i've talked about EMH!Tony specifically at length before but unfortunately the words simply aren't coming to me right now to describe how much i like him (I like him so, so much). One thing I will say is that I miss the way his nose looked in the first episode before they finished yassifying his character design. He still looks great after they change it, but S1E1 "Iron Man Is Born!" Tony is my desi king and i adore him <3

Steve Rogers

I love EMH!Steve so much, I feel like of the multiversal Steve's, this Steve is much more self-assured, specifically in the period of time immediately after he is found in the ice by the Avengers. His character design took some getting used to, but honestly by the end of S1, he had fully won me over to the point where I no longer feared for the structural integrity of his top-heavy weight distribution and actually liked how Shaped he is.

This Steve is a bastard who's first name is Malicious and last name is Compliance, and we love him for it. I adored how you could see him actively loosening up around the other Avengers as he spent more and more time with them. The difference between Steve just out of the ice and Steve at the end of S1 is so palpable and it's incredibly satisfying to see him come into himself more as he adjusts to the future and to his team.

My only complaint is while i was enthralled by the [REDACTED] story arc, I'm still very salty about the fact that Steve is basically MIA for like. half a season :/ which considering the whole show only lasted two seasons is upsetting :(

Janet Van Dyne

I actually managed to pull together some coherent thoughts about Jan here, but the long and short of it is that I love her I'd marry her I'd die for her I'd kill for her she's a bestie she's my ride or die she's so high maintenance she's got terrible taste in men she's got incredible taste in women she keeps tissues in her purse but she never cries in public.

Her character design.... literally what is there to say? Perfection, perfection, perfection, *chef's kiss*, absolutely not a single note because she is flawless.

I also have a very soft spot for scenes in which her teammates protect her from huge explosions while she's Wasp-sized <3 <3 They all care about her so much and she's so fierce and competent but it's also so lovely to see her teammates having her back when she needs it :')

Bruce Banner

Honestly EMH!Bruce Banner is my favorite iteration of Bruce Banner/Hulk that I've seen yet. I really really really really appreciate how, even though Hulk has comedic moments, his character is not reduced to comic relief. And I loved how the show portrayed Hulk's and Bruce's relationship with each other, the way they're both distinct personalities who are both good people that ultimately want the same things (acceptance, the chance to do & be good in the world) while also being caught in this struggle to balance power and control between them that sometimes catches them at odds with each other. Extremely compelling stuff.

I love both of their character designs separately. I also love how both of them interact with other people, namely Clint. EMH S1 especially is rife with bruceclint fodder if you're interested in that ship!

Dr. Doom

Oh my god, what's NOT to love about EMH!VVD???? Truly, EMH is Victor Von Doom's world and we're all just living in it. He has such a commanding presence in the (sadly few) scenes that he's in, and I love how whatever the Avengers/Fantastic Four are doing is always incidental to what he's got planned. Like, yeah, he gets that they're trying to stop him but he truly could not care less about it and that's so hot of him.

My headcanon is that every single character in EMH has a daddy kink for Dr. Doom and NO i am not projecting and if i were what of it? Mind your business.

Hank Pym

Now Hank... Hank is a tough one. I don't think it's any secret that I despise him, and for all of S1 and most of S2 that was very true. The problem with Hank is that politically, I fuck with him the hardest, but unfortunately for him I do not watch animated children's TV shows from the early 2010s to get my politics validated. And unfortunately for ME, EMH made the character who has the best politics also the most annoying motherfucker in the series. *spits*

But the thing is, Hank makes a very intense about-turn in characterization somewhere in the middle of S2. Basically, what happens is that at the beginning of EMH, Hank is Ant-Man, some time in late S1/early S2 (I can't really remember whoops!), Hank stops being Ant-Man and it's all very angsty of him, and then the big characterization change happens when Hank is revealed to have created a new superhero persona by the name of Yellowjacket.

All of this mostly makes sense in canon, but even so it's kind of jarring, which is almost 100% due to the fact that the creators of the show knew they only had like 3/4ths of a season left to tie up all the loose plot threads as best they could. Because of this, the show ended before I could really see how New-And-Improved Hank deals with a lot of the personal, interpersonal, and professional conflicts that plagued him during S1, which would have been really fun to see and to judge if he really had changed as much as it seemed like he had. It's all very interesting. IDK how I feel about it.

I also want to say that, even though I (mostly) can't stand Hank and I desperately love Jan, Jan and Hank together is a terrible, terrible couple and it's not all Hank's fault either. Hank doesn't trust Jan's autonomy and capabilities in the field. Jan doesn't respect Hank's scientific endeavors and professional passions. Both of them fundamentally disagree on the roles and responsibilities of superheroes in society. It's a mess. I like to believe that if the show hadn't been cancelled, there would have been an arc of Tony and Jan dating each other in order to make both of their real romantic interests jealous, which would have at least made all this back and forth worth it, but alas. Alas...

!!!! you're taking prompts!! oh i made it back to tumblr just in time!!

sorry ion kno nothin' bout naruto 😔 but how about yelena & monica? 👀 with the "we're undercover" trope maybe? (don't sweat about actually writing it tho! just throwin' this out there to ya)

No, it's fine, it's refreshing enough to be interesting despite being MCU!!! ♥️ Tho ngl this is so random, it's a good thing it's a drabble only since I wouldn't know how they'd meet lol

—

“Exactly how many weapons do you have?” Monica asks as Yelena produces another gun out of thin air.

“A lot,” is the non-answer. “Look, you got your magic-thingy—”

“Not magic; I absorb energy an—”

“—and I have my guns. And knives.” As if to prove her point, she pulls a bowie knife from her bra.

Monica gapes.

“What? A woman can never have enough weapons on her!”

Which isn’t wrong, but… “You’re undercover as princess of Xandar!”

“Princesses can have guns too.”

This isn’t what Monica imagined working with a Black Widow would be like, damn it.

Send me a ship + trope/theme and I’ll write a drabble

[cowboyhorsegirl]

i see the sherlock watching is going extremely well, i can hear the excited-cat-chirping-at-bird inside your brain through the screen everytime you post about it, lmao, it's great

no bc these movies shaped me as a person they rewired the neurons in my brain they changed the trajectory of my whole entire life without Sherlock Holmes (2009) there is no Robert Downey Jr. celebrity crush without the RDJ celebrity crush there is no 'hey I should really go check out those Iron Man movies he's in!' without the tentative foray into superhero movies via the IM trilogy there is no shipping Captain America/Iron Man and then like honestly that is where the chain ends but like WOW! what a ride :D

[persephonesfill]

if i ask you very very very nicely and politely and cutely will you please tell me about the secret mcu that lives in your head?

the secret mcu that lives in my head is moreso an amalgamation of moments/ideas in my head that make me go "SICK" so this might be really rambly and incomprehensible. sorry in advance dhfhgsgd

posting under a cut because i can't shut the fuck up

in the secret mcu that lives in my head, all of the solo movies would be directed by one director and/or writer(s) who have a great grasp of whichever character they're assigned and then for ensemble movies all of those directors and writers come together and work on making a coherent narrative instead of the character assassinations we got in ensemble films. in the same way the heroes are coming together on the screen, the production team and actors are doing the same behind the scenes.

the black widow movie would take place in phase 1 right after iron man 2, followed by thor, then ca: tfa and i put it in that order for a reason. i like nat's character introduction in iron man 2 and i feel like right after that would have been the perfect moment to give us her origin story. it opens with the same scenes from the black widow movie wer did get—young natasha and yelena, fleeing the united states going back to the red room etc. but from there we would watch nat's entire experience in the red room, including the winter soldier training nat like in the comics. they would never refer to bucky by his name, only calling him soldat or the asset and nat is the one to name him, to give bucky back a bit of his humanity and from there on out he's referred to as by yasha. i have a lot more ideas for the black widow origin story we could have got but that's a whole separate post entirely. i just think it would have been neat if we only got glimpses of the soldier and in a black widow movie. then when people saw bucky in ca:tfa they'd be like "...he looks really similar to yasha...and he kind of fights like yasha...HOLY SHIT"

phase one ends with all of the avengers living in avengers tower because i say so. age of ultron would simply not exist because i do not care for that movie or certain characters that were introduced in it. if they were deadset on doing the civil war storyline, i think there's a better way they could have broken the avengers apart than the mess that was ca:cw. ca:cw also would not have been a cap movie but the third avengers movie it should have been.

finally, i would have stuck with thanos' original comic motivation of courting death and would have had him team up with hela. i'm like...cate blanchett was RIGHT there

the soul stone would also have more buildup. it feels so lazy that it was introduced in infinity war and like it was only meant to kill off gamora for shock value instead of actually serving a narrative purpose.

and that's pretty much all i got! thank you so much for listening to my rambles ☺️💖💖

[justsomeoneunordinary]

don't think i could ever pass up a chance on ask games on your blog; it's too entertaining and your opinions are simply too interesting 👀

so, character opinion bingo...let's do...wong and dr.strange. that's new for me i think, lmao. been seein' some gifs and they definitely have been intriguing me as characters lately!

(also i still have the character opinion ask you sent me! im gonna answer it, i just haven't had time lately 🫠)

you're literally so precious and i might or might not be in love with you 🥺💕💕

wong:

i love that the whole mcu fandom agrees that he's pretty much the best part of phase 4! because he IS! the mcu doesn't do many things right anymore but making wong sorcerer supreme? BEST DECISION IN A VERY LONG TIME, HANDS DOWN!!

he's just so fucking funny and iconic and cool and a total little shit while still being more responsible than stephen ever could. literal legend. i love him. i loved him from the beginning and i love him even more now

stephen:

look on the one hand stephen deserves to be bullied to kingdom come, he's a total shit who dishes out all the time, so he should be able to take some in turn too. but i also find the way certain tony stans react to him very uh... biased. (saying he's the reason tony died sure is... an opinion.) i love tony but there's a reason why i don't normally talk with the extreme stans of any of the characters i like

anyways, i just think he's a funny little asshole who deserves being shaken a bit like the silly little doctor magician he is :D

thank you so much for the asks, you're a gem 😘💕

send me characters for the character opinion bingo!

Rules: Share the last 5 sentences of your WIP

(I assume this means the last WIP I worked on bc I have a bajillion)

Oh… maybe Tobirama should do that too once she’s sent for higher profile missions than the courier one’s she’s still stuck with?

Whatever face she makes at that thought, it earns her a loud bark of laughter from Touka, and she feels the annoyance rising high. She makes sure to convey that with her eyes through the look she gives Touka.

“As if you would ever dare to break the rules and sabotage a mission.”

… Hmpf. Point.

Are those 5 or 6 sentences? I'm confused but too lazy to think too hard about it, so I'm leaving it that way lol

Rules: Post the first lines of your last 10 fics posted to AO3. If you have less than 10 fics posted, post the first lines of all your fics.

I always found the term "lines" for this tag game so weird. It should either be first sentence or first paragraph, since a line may differ in length anyways and also might end in the middle of a sentence. Which is why I'm going with paragraphs, bc my first paragraphs aren't that long and it makes most logical sense as it states lines plural and not line.

Moving Mountains (And Anything Else for You) (HashiMito)

One of the problems with using an experimental jutsu on yourself is that you don’t know what possible side effects may occur.

Pen and Sword (Gen, Tobirama-centirc)

Tobirama is eight years old when chichi-ue gifts him his first real sword—its blade longer than Tobirama tall.

A Sensei’s Job (Does Not Entail This) (Gen, Tobirama & Koharu)

When Tobirama decided to set a good example by taking on the role of a Jounin-sensei to prepare young Genin fresh out of the ninja academy for the life of a shiobi, he had been a bit nervous, but on the whole, he had been excited and looked forward to the experience and sharing his knowledge with Konoha’s future shinobi.

Allies, but Reluctant Allies (For the Love of Everything, Someone Please Stop Them) (Gen, Tobirama & Madara)

“The Edo Tensei. You want to show me your infamous kinjutsu? The most indecent jutsu you’ve invented to date? Did I just get that right?”

Fuck You, Senju (Gen, Izuna-centric)

Scorching hot rage fills Izuna as Tobirama’s blade pierces her flesh with an unexpected movement that not even her Sharingan could catch.

A Brother’s Devotion (Gen, Izuna & Madara)

“I’m telling you, that brute will drive this village, and more importantly us, to ruin if the fool Hashirama continues letting him play Hokage!”

Beyond Mortal Realm (Gen, Izuna-centric)

Blood has never been so striking red as the moment it pools out of Kanako’s stomach caused by a deadly blow, and she falls to the ground like a puppet torn loose from its strings.

Missed Me, Darling? (TobiIzu)

Izuna should’ve been back three days ago. He had been on a mission for almost a whole month and now he was running late and—

Judge, Jury and Executioner (TobiIzu)

When Hashirama had told them that they needed a hobby—an outlet for their pent-up energy to somehow deal with the sudden end of the constant war they’d known all their life—this is probably not what he had in mind.

The Sound of Hearts Breaking (past TobiIzu, Madara-centric)

Madara is convinced those are just dreams at first. That his subconscious generates images of fighting Tobirama, sometimes other enemy shinobi too, but more often than not Tobirama charging at him with his sword or attacking with a suiton, and Madara parrying him swiftly. For sure, Madara sometimes likes to imagine killing Tobirama. But he has no interest in fighting him—the only thing he daydreams about is slitting Tobirama’s throat in one sharp motion. His brother’s murderer doesn’t deserve an honorable death.

(Wow, now that I look at it, I probably should've broken the paragraph of the last one in two...)

16, 17, 18, and 19? inquiring minds want to know! (the inquiring minds is me. 👀)

thank you for the ask 💖💖

16. where is your favorite place to write?

i live in a full house and don't get it to myself often, but when i do, i love to sit at the dinner table with my laptop and candle going to set the mood.

17. what is your favorite line you’ve ever written?

oh jeez there's so many but right off the top of my head, all i can think of is "What's god compared to you?" which shows up in ad astra and choke on me.

18. what is your most and least favorite part of writing?

i actually like revision the most. once i'm done drafting, everything else is smooth sailing and i really get the chance to make my writing shine. as for my least favorite part, it's probably anything having to do with pre-writing/outlining. i very much write by the seat of my pants so outlining is just hell to me.

19. what are some books or authors that influenced your style the most?

i don't know if any writers have influenced me explicitly, but i have been reading a bit of charlotte brontë and v.e schwab recently so maybe some of their quirks have been bleeding into my writing as of late.

ask me fanfic questions!

[persephonesfill]

now why did they give that man a pornstache? hm? hm? what was the reason

honestly he looks like j jonah jameson :(

[persephonesfill]

hi! just sending you this to tell you you're awesome. ♥️

got a fic you wanna talk about? i really love to hear about people's wips. 👀

i have the best mutuals in the world omg thank you!! ☺️ 💖

currently obsessing over my 90s au called this charming man where howard finds steve in the 90s and wants him to befriend tony which uh, does not go as planned. this fic is something new for me, and has a lot of new things i haven't explored before like writing for howard, writing a pre-iron man tony, daddy kink, and i am very scared in regards to how it's going to be received but i'm going to push through.

i'm also trying to get back into my longest wip, choke on me which is a canon divergent fic where steve and tony hook up on the helicarrier during a1 and subsequently enter a friends with benefits relationship. this fic is a little mix of everything from fluff to smut to angst and of course has team as family. a lot of my favorite stony moments i've written are in this fic

thank you so much for this ask! 💖
