What Tony thinks Maria would say echoes with what he said at the end of AoU. In retrospect, Tony has foreshadowed the breakup of the Avengers, and it appears that he would see it as somewhat a parallel to losing his family.

starkly-tony: Here’s the thing. I want Tony to apologize in IW. Not because he’s the only one in the wrong (far from it), but because that’s his character. Taking in the blame for what happens around him, for what he wishes he had done something to prevent, is what Tony does. And as satisfying as… Continue reading
If Tony is willing to ignore Accord and go help Steve in Siberia since he realize he’s wrong about the Accord, why does he leave all team cap in RAFT? Should he also go help to break them out? I mean half responsibility is because of him not willing to listen to Cap explanation before the airport flight began?
squeeful: flange5: I would argue that Tony doesn’t realize he’s wrong about *the Accords* at all. Tony is shown to have approximately 3 major motivations in his support of the Accords, and the emphasis on which one is foregrounded shifts from act to act in the film, but they are all still operant throughout the… Continue reading If Tony is willing to ignore Accord and go help Steve in Siberia since he realize he’s wrong about the Accord, why does he leave all team cap in RAFT?

turtleoftheabyss: Now that I’m thinking about the disparity between Sam and rhodey’s opinions…. Rhodey is extremely well-educated and it’s backed up by more than one piece of evidence. Not only did he go to MIT and get his degree, but he actually made it into the air force officer ranks, AND he’s high-ranking. (Also that… Continue reading
Is it bad that I just… can’t accept a lot of the Team Cap side of issue because it’s so… blind to the race issues? Like I’m not white, and whenever I read Team Cap Meta, it just can’t… separate the white privilege from a lot of the statements that I’ve seen. I think it’s a common issue as a lot of my fellow foreign fans felt a massive divide with the movie as well.
aslightstep: areshihai: aslightstep: Full disclosure that I am white and American, before I continue. I don’t think it’s bad at all. I think it’s something to be discussed certainly. I’ve heard from other foreign fans that Cap’s position seems imperialistic and I can certainly see where they are coming from and even agree on some… Continue reading Is it bad that I just… can’t accept a lot of the Team Cap side of issue because it’s so… blind to the race issues?

do you think, if he were still involved with the avengers, that nick fury would have signed the accords?
knightinironarmor: I don’t think there’s a definitive answer at this point. It sort of depends on how the SHIELD/Hydra scandal affected Fury’s willingness to work under a governing body reminiscent of, say, the World Security Council. I wouldn’t say he ever *trusted* the WSC, but up until Cap 2, Fury maintained a very diplomatic relationship… Continue reading do you think, if he were still involved with the avengers, that nick fury would have signed the accords?
tony stark in civil war + text posts
“Who’s going to avenge my son, Stark?”
There’s an entire novel of emotions in that face.
Tony deals with people blaming him when he was trying to save people, but god forbid he blame someone for actually killing his parents
