So I’m rewatching IW before Endgame, and I noticed some Irondad moments that I missed before:
- In that first fight scene in the park in NYC, Peter and Tony move around each other so seamlessly, alternating between blows and playing off of each other’s attacks with such familiarity that you cannot tell me they haven’t done this before–and clearly often enough that it’s almost second nature
- Like, they don’t even have to talk while they’re fighting, they just read off of each other and I love it so much
- And speaking of talking–when Peter gets beamed up, he calls out for Tony to help him… he’s already on his comms system. Their suits are pre-programmed to communicate with each other and this is a little thing yes but it means, again, that they’ve done this before
- Also, can we just talk about how Peter gets tossed around in the park and Tony doesn’t overreact (and it’s obviously not because he doesn’t care, look at how quick he sends him home on the ship), but just imagine how many missions it took for Tony to not come running to Peter’s aid any time he so much as got a bruise
- And, when Peter’s getting pulled into space… Tony is so calm
- Again, it’s not because he doesn’t care or because he isn’t freaking out (I’m positive he’s freaking out), but it’s such a small detail and shows how far Tony’s parental instincts have come–he’s staying calm for Peter, downplaying the situation so Peter doesn’t freak out and panic
- Also Tony calling Peter “Pete” always makes me smile because it’s just so cute
- And lastly, when they’re talking on the ship, these two know what the other one is going to say before they say it… they’re bantering
- All I’m saying is we’ve come so far from SMHC and if I don’t get more irondad I might actually kill someone
