Oh so you think Steve Rogers, who grew up during the Great Depression & Also fought in WW2, doesn’t have a fatalistic sense of humour that rivals that of the most hardened Gen Z teen? Hah okay then
Peter Parker, after failing his Spanish assessment: Lol when will death befall me
The rest of the Avengers: Ohmygod Peter honey it’s okay it’ll get better I promise please don’t say things like that you’re gonna be okay-
Steve, high-fiving him: We can only pray the reaper will arrive early for his appointment with us kid
The first conversation they ever have is when they both have breakfast at the Avengers Tower. Steve burns his toast & he just looks at the wall and declares, completely deadpan, “There is literally No Point to existence At All’ and then on the other side of the room he hears the instant response of “oh mood” which is basically the story of how Peter Parker & Steve Rogers bonded for life.
i’m always so happy about seeing mlm feeling comfortable about publicly crushing on tom holland, bc he and the rest of the mcu spidey cast/crew have made sure they feel safe in the fanbase. like seeing tom at photo ops doing cute romantic poses with guys the same way he would with the girls, that’s so refreshing. seeing guys show up to the spidey set wearing “mentally dating tom holland” shirts and the cast takes pics of his shirt and give him thumbs up for it?? good ass shit there. it might not seem like a big deal to everyone, but it really is.
i’m getting some messages asking for “proof” of this so, here’s some con pics of tom with some male/masc fans doing romantic poses, and one of him holding up the trans pride flag:
here’s the male/masc fan wearing a “mentally dating tom holland shirt” happily posing for the cast/crew when they asked for pics of him in it, this is from remy hii’s instagram:
and here’s a question that jacob batalon and laura harrier got during the “homecoming” press tour, when doing an answertime on tumblr’s stardom blog:
and then when later asked about it in an interview jacob added this:
on top of that, “far from home” will have two trans male actors playing some of peter parker’s classmates. the mcu spider-man franchise is a safe space for lgbt+ fans.
Can we all appreciate that Ned had exactly one (1) line in this entire movie, and it was both utterly iconic and entirely too correct
Can we also appreciate the lack of hesitation, questioning, or even an ounce of suspicion? His best friend says cause a distraction, he does it.
Because he knows Peter is Spider-Man ….
I could be Captain America’s second in command, son, and most beloved chauffeur, but if he randomly told me to cause a distraction the first thing out of my mouth would be “why whats up?” This has nothing to do with super heroes or secret identities and everything to do with unerring trust
i’m happy that mcu peter’s spidey sense isn’t being shown as a miracle worker, like i’m happy peter’s sense went off to danger that was laughably close to peter. people have this misconception (mainly due to the 2002 spidey films) that his spidey sense will give peter a heads up to threats wayyyyy in advance, but that’s not the case. like there have been many times when peter’s spidey sense doesn’t really alert him to danger until the danger is really close, sometimes close enough that regular people have already noticed said danger.
and even then, peter often ignores it bc it can go off to things that aren’t necessarily a threat but COULD be. like a wad of paper being thrown at him by flash, a puddle on the floor that could make him slip. so sometimes peter just ignores it bc it goes off all the time to shit that really isn’t that dangerous. the sense is basically like a really reliable, and sometimes annoying, gut-feeling. the spidey sense is so cool but it’s still a sense not that different from sight or hearing or taste or touch, and it isn’t all powerful or always very helpful.
radioactive spider: look! i made a superhero!
the avengers: you fucked up a perfectly good teenager is what you did. look at him. he’s got anxiety.
We all talk about Spider-Man and Shuri but but we are sleeping on the real OP: Vision. He’s two years old and literally built from the internet. You don’t think he would use vines as a way to talk like a human?
Vision says “Don’t forget to like and subscribe” instead of goodnight.

Instead of Peter and Shuri saying ‘Alexa play despacito’ they say ‘Vision play despactio’ and Vision just starts projecting music out of his mouth
