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

My solution to the Infinity War?
YEET.
After some discussion with my peers, it has been decided that Batman already has a plan in motion in the event of a Thanos.
That plan is ‘Call Wonder Woman.’
Evans suggested that when they bump into each other, they do what friends often do after being apart for a while: assess each other’s haircuts. In some ways, they’ve swapped styles. Thor has gotten a clean-cut trim, while Cap is sporting the ragged locks and beard.
“I’ll be like, ‘Short hair now? Good choice,’” Evans says, while miming a right hook against an invisible Outrider.
“And I’ll go, ‘Yours too. The beard. Very rugged,’” Hemsworth says.

I feel like I scream this all the time. Thor speaks Groot. The language Groot. And he introduces his friend as Tree. His name is Tree, he is a Groot. He is a Groot named Tree in the MCU.
I read lots of comics but I haven’t stumbled across this character in my pull list yet, so I have no idea about his in comics.
But I believe he is a Groot named Tree.
…says Tony Stark, the King of pop-culture references
That’s My Dad
You are my daaaaad. You’re my dad! Boogie woogie woogie
Okay but just think , at this point Tony is probably trying to push down an anxiety attack because he’s in space on an alien ship, which is so triggering for him. So for him to tell Peter “no more pop culture references” is him making a joke, trying to stay focused on the people around him and what they’re saying instead of focusing on the situation they’re in. Even when he does focus on landing the ship, he focuses on the mechanics of it which he knows about and showing Peter how to land it, not the fact that it’s an alien ship or they’re landing on an alien planet.
