Someone likes something you don't like. It's okay anon, we have people here for that. (Somewhere.)

Well, aside from the fact you appear to be more of a 'looks are 100% more important than personality' type yourself based on that comment, AND the fact that I know plenty of people who definitely think he's attractive, is it so outside the realm of possibility that people like things that you don't like... And there's nothing inherently wrong with that?

Also person in their twenties to person in their thirties is not an age difference that's going to get too many people's panties in a twist around here - and much greater age differences have been no deterrent to shippers everywhere.

Thirdly, a two second Google (http://www.google.com/search?q=Agent+Phil+coulson&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hl=en&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=ykfqT8TWG8Hq0gGr2pTMAQ&biw=915&bih=550&sei=zEfqT4ivEqXi0gGw5fSuAQ) will wield you tons of results of Coulson having hair that is *not* gray all over. Please try again.

One of my grandfathers went gray in his very early 30ish- hair color wasn't really so much an age marker so much there.

Huh? Clark Gregg is 50. He's 24 years older than Kat Dennings.

Unless I missed something stating Coulson to be younger or Darcy to be older, that's a pretty big age difference.

person in their thirties

Wait... really, they say this? Did the movies seriously try to get us to buy that?

Lol what.

a) Clark Gregg is 50, and looks 55 easy. No way is Coulson supposed to be younger than late-40s max, but 50s probable. In fact, I'm pretty sure Fury and Coulson are supposed to be similar ages. I've already been told Fury "is too old to ship with anyone". Apparently, this need not apply to pasty white asses. (And in what world does Fury *look* older than Coulson? Coulson looks like a banker gone to seed, srsly. And that was the whole point of casting him back in IM - that he looks unassuming and old, not at all like a secret agent). And Darcy is 22 at most. That is not entirely a 'normal' age difference. That's the age difference between me and my parents. If you're writing that, I'd like to see a *little* acknowledgement of this aspect of their relationship in the fic.

b) And to address your earlier point: what personality, man? He and Darcy are basically fandom's approved avenues of self-insertion. All we actually know of him from the movies is that he's a Cap-fanboy and Fury's PA and can handle common gas-station goons.

I like Coulson in the movies quite a lot, but fandom!Coulson has as little to do with movie!Coulson as C/C!Clint has to do with Clint in any incarnation.
