His Eyes, Though...

His eyes, though...

—Eye Language.

And he just keeps finding more of himself to burn...

Happy New Year everyone ^_^ Some gorgeous art, hoping the new year will be just as gorgeous!

Well, Happy New Year! Let’s hope this year is much better than the last one!

Look how adorable!

SIU’s Secret Santa! For @anthonystarhk

They asked for MIT Era Tony/Rhodey or Tony making a flower crown for Bucky. I combined them ahhhh I hope ya don’t mind!

😘💕

Rhodey: “Why do you insist on wearing my old MIT sweater, Tones?”

Tony: “Because Rhodes! Yours is far superior to mine! Also! It’s big and soft, like you.” ;)

They destroyed him and then they kept saying it wasn’t enough yet, he was still a bad person, he still needed to be broken down further... No. He’s been broken enough. More than enough. Let him ENJOY HIS LIFE, please.

you know what I miss from the early Iron Man movies?  The optimism.  The joy.  The ego.  This isn’t saying that I think Tony is egotistical (although to a certain extent he is), I’m saying that he had that rock star image.

I mean:

the stark expo?

the Senate hearing?

Making the suit?  Look at how proud he is of himself!  What an accomplishment!  This bitch is going places

LOOK AT HIS FACE, in any given scene of these two movies, almost all of them Tony’s got attitude, ego, a sense of hope.  Hell, lets go wild, lets add in the Avengers too:

HE’S JUST SUCH A DIFFERENT PERSON.  

a sink hole of human despair.  They’ve taken away his theme music, his house, his rock star persona, his hope, his joy, his fluffy hair…

I do fully understand the choice to give Tony PTSD (or whatever they are now calling this) because the guy has been through so much shit.  I’m not saying they couldn’t have done that.  I’m saying they completely changed everything about how they present his character and I miss the Tony that was, and could have been.  They stole so much light and happiness from this man and they said it was because he was recovering but they never fucking gave it back.  Look at his face in that last gif.  That’s a man who keeps thinking he’s found rock bottom but actually there’s farther to fall.

After Bucky got kidnapped while the two of them were out together, Tony started writing to him.

Warnings: somewhat dark, make sure to read the tags!

A fic for the final two WinterIron Bingo Adventure squares I’m going to get this round: B4 - Kidnapping, and G2 - Epistolary fic: Emails/letters/etc.

A master post will follow somewhere this weekend.
