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.
Imagine being Heimdall and having a spirit so generous that you could sincerely say “welcome home” to the individual who once turned you into an icicle and is now showing up 15 minutes late without Starbucks to the apocalypse that he sort of started.
It still messes me up that Joe Russo said that one of the motivating factors for why Tony took the fight to Titan was because the vision he had of “all his friends dead” is still very real in his mind.
So Tony didn’t just take the fight away from Earth because he wanted to protect Earth. He also did it because he wanted to keep Thanos from the Avengers, because he wanted them to be safe. He is still trying to protect them even now, even after everything that happened.
