(Anonymous) 2018-02-22 02:57 am (UTC)(link)And to be honest, I've seen a lot more all-or-nothing on types on the Team Tony side of things.

(Anonymous) 2018-02-22 12:17 am (UTC)(link)Loki knew full well what he was doing and, in most cases, seemed to enjoy fucking people up/over.
Bucky as the Winter Soldier had no control over his own actions. Think of him more like a UAV being 'piloted' by someone who knew the magic words than by a person killing people for his own benefit and out of his own desire.
That said, I could still see Tony's head explode considering how he did act in CW. But I kind of lost a lot of respect for the character anyway when he tried to convince Steve to just sign the Accords and they could 'work out the details later' or however he said it. Because either Tony is suddenly revealed to be a particularly idiotic businessman (you don't sign legal documents without 'working out the details' first) or he has absolutely no respect for the intelligence of those he's saving the world with. Neither speaks well of him.

(Anonymous) 2018-02-22 12:24 am (UTC)(link)I don't think either of them are blameless little precious cupcakes though, so I think it's fucking weird when people like them for being that. I see a lot of "wah. everyone is mean to tony! he deserves hugs." and "they lied to loki about who he was so of course he did that but he didn't really want to kill people!"

(Anonymous) 2018-02-22 12:41 am (UTC)(link)Fandom is all repressed incestuous longing, poor innocent baby loki being bullied by the big kids, and daddy issues as far as the eye can see though. Zero interest.

But from what I've gathered from being in fandom for many years is that the hardcore-fans of a character are pretty much always batshit and seem to be consuming a completely different canon from everyone else.

(Anonymous) 2018-02-22 05:57 am (UTC)(link)I wouldn't work with either of them, frankly.

I like Tony BECAUSE he's flawed and emotional and reactionary, so his actions don't always make sense and can lead him to making horrible choices.
I don't see the point in comparing the two, they both suck as people for different reasons, but as characters, they're so much better to me than ones that never waver.
Even on that note, I love Steve BECAUSE he struggles to be that never wavering justice, but it's clear he has his own biases. They are just not on the same wavelength as the two above.
TL;DR I like flaws. :D
