Does anybody else fell like that Steven is younger than the body, Jake is older and Marc is about the same age? I get that vibe so much that I forget it's not cannon! And I KNOW MOST OF US DO DON'T FUCKING LIE TO ME!
But how old are the others?
32 and 45?
More?
Less?
idk
help!

I KNOW that canonically Tony Stark is a classic rock guy. However, I live in the world of fanon, and in my universe his workout playlist consists entirely of the kind of music you'd see gay people making thirst traps to on bimbotok

it’s so funny to me that, not only is the MCU fandom divided into fans of different characters or series, it’s also divided into how much of canon you consider canon. Even from there, the fandom splits based on what their main issue is with the media.
Like, yeah, you can have two MCU fans.
But one has only ever watched the Avengers movies, they wholeheartedly believe in Canon and Nothing Else, their main issue with the movies is that there wasn’t enough fight scenes
the other stopped watching Avengers after age of ultron but frequently rewatched solo movies, their headcanons are far more real to them than 70% of canon, and their main issue with the movies is that they strayed from the comics
like that’s not the same fandom

Its very frustrating to be in a fandom where the fanon is wildly different from canon
Because then misrepresentation makes you want to bite things because it's wrong and defangs and lessens your favourite media
On the other hand when you're outside a fandom, meaning you haven't seen the canon ever or only in small chunks, and that fandom has taken over your dash. You can get so into the fanon that when you're presented with actual facts about the canon you're like "I'd rather just consume the fanon as its fed to me by my tumblr mutuals"
Because the fanon has everything that makes you smile and the canon is pain and despair
Anyway that's how I feel about Batman and the early MCU

Rip to the person who will enter the Stucky/cap quartet tag with no knowledge of the original material and will find this beautiful and gigantic amount of fanfics and fanarts of two gays in love and their tired yet supportive besties.
This poor person will think that the actual material is like this, and will happily go into Marvel movies just to discover that:
- the happy and gay pookies of the fics and fanarts are actually 50% angst and 50% queer baiting
- their redhead bestie is traumatized and currently dead because of a rock
- their male bestie is actually the only one who’s good in both canon and fanon characterization BUT is severely and unfairly underrated (ilysm Sam Wilson)
- the found family is literally the blond guy being friends with everyone and the rest barely interacting with each other to some extent
- there’s at least 4 other characters getting in the way of the pookies, and their fanon characterizations are far better than their canon ones (I’m looking at you, Tony Stark and Peggy Carter)
I don’t know anyone who lived this traumatic experience, but lord help anyone who might enter the fanon heaven just to find the train wreck that is the MCU.

Do you understand how impeccable the writing has to be for me to go feral over a canon m/f pairing??? Like it’s one thing for me to occasionally ship a m/f pairing that are never canon who I enjoy the potential unexplored dynamic for, but it’s so rare that I actually like canon m/f pairings, it’s basically the highest praise a writer can receive from me if I’m losing it over one

I joke a lot about it now but I wish there was a way for fandom history to be remembered. Not the drama or just a list of the popular tropes, but the intercultural stuff. The things you only get from being there, or close enough to it.
Like how in 2016, irondad basically started as a fandom by killing May Parker off and instituting Tony as thee dad of all time, ranging anything from best dad ever or struggling but either way— Tony even after Civil War immediately sees Peter like a son. Or how by 2017, Peter as an avenger or going on a field trip was the most popular thing for him to do, with Flash Thompson being an abusive jerk that beats Peter so much, he was scared of him (and Tony would come to save the day). Like how by 2018, fanon irondad took precedence of over anything, not just the movies but even the comic book history— skip westcott, a character from a PSA comic from the 80s, becoming such a known and understood character that he’s part of the “Spider-Man lore”, but only in so much as it gave Tony a platform to save the day, not Peter. How by 2019, in the scenarios and rewrites of infinity war had taken on a different lens into thousands of fix its after Endgame, ranging from making Peter jealous of Morgan or writing out that little girl entirely. Like how in 2020, quarantine and writing in Peter at marches was an active trend, to the point of cosmic irony.
It’s not just knowing the tropes, but knowing the vibes. The history. The things that now, don’t make any sense or just have different assumptions for what the reader believes to be true. I reread a fic recently and was so struck by the notes which poked fun at the trend of killing May off when you could just coparent, not just because it was funny (and a little disconcerting) to see all the defensiveness of irondad writers in the comments who made their names by killing May/writing the kind of codependency they passed off as found family— but also how it both fit into and deflected against established fanon, not canon. Of course Tony is going to speak Italian and be an active, engaged presence in Peter’s life that not only has lab time, but has dinner with him once a week and asks about his friends. Of course May is a nurse that works long hours that keeps her busy and away— because Tony can “babysit” a 15-year old New Yorker. Of course Peter is a teenager but acts more like a 12-year old in temperament and excitability, speaking like a walking meme.
This particular fic was so radical imo not just because May is 1) alive, 2) active in the plot, and 3) isn’t abusive or dating someone abusive, but because it ALSO presumed things as normal that weren’t common— like Rhodey being Tony’s actual best friend, Pepper being Tony’s fiancé who actually showed up, Peter being friends with MJ and Ned, having a crush on MJ— all things that still aren’t terribly popular in that subset of fandom, but now come with more canonical evidence that supersede the fanon.
I’m not sure if there’s a point to this, maybe this is a thought that should’ve stayed in the drafts. But this kind of fandom lore™️ is too good to let go.
Especially since I know irondad isn’t the only kind of fandom with a shared history that’s changed over time.

Me when I get forced out of consuming spider-man fan content because its ALL tainted TO THIS DAY by all the ppl who thinks he acts like "m-m-m-mister stark im scared 🥺🥺" and even for Peter outside of the MCU fandom, the fanon MCU peter effect bleeds onto them too

You are so funny this sent me into space. End the perception that MCU Peter is woobified!!! Fandom made that shit up!!!!!
NO LIKE FOR REAL!! What do you mean he’s in experienced??? Did he not fucking take down a whole ass jet in his first movie in his homemade suit? Did he not take down Bucky and Sam in Civil War? He’s clearly experienced enough to be shot into fucking space! And even if he is “inexperienced” like he’s still Spider-Man a fucking mugger should not be able to kidnap him. Like maybe I would read more mcu fics if the fandom let Peter be half as competent as he is in his own movies
