What I meant when I said that was that being "invested" usually equals having an understanding of the source material. Personally, if I don't care, I wouldn't bother with the movies/comics/books/whatever enough to know what has that basis or not. We have different definitions of invested in this case.

Obviously it's all made up. It's fiction. But holding what you read into the source material over and above what someone else does is pretty high handed. You don't see it in the source material? Good for you. Someone else does? Good for them. It's a matter of interpretation more than anything else.

No, see, what I mean is you're talking about "investment" in the wrong thing. They said they are not invested in the fandom. The fandom is not the source material, which is where their quibble starts in the first place.

I'd be curious as to whether anyone actually is saying that they honestly see a relationship between Clint and Coulson in the films. I was under the impression that most people admit that it's crack or highly, highly supplemented by fanon. A romantic relationship between Clint and Natasha is not canon either, but it's true that there is shown to be more supporting it -- more of a relationship that's even extent, period -- than Clint and Coulson. I honestly don't give much of a shit, but they're not really the same and the extent of the relationship that people seem to write about between them does require a lot more making-up of things. That's the reality of it -- Clint and Natasha get multiple scenes dedicated to their attachment to each other, long history together, investment in each other's well-being, and the specific ways they describe their relationship. Coulson dies, and even Tony and Steve are shown onscreen reacting more to it and more affected by it in the long-term (in the terms of those 2.5 hours, anyway). It's a whole different level of fanon.
