I'm just gonna say it again real quick:
Yes!! Iron Man is a tragedy! It has and always has been since the very first appearance in 1963 which describes itself, Tony's life, and legacy, as such.
Tony causes most of his issues himself, he is his biggest villain, a majority of his rogues gallery are caricatures of the worst versions of himself brought to life (when they're not just being racist cuz...60s...). The worst thing about being Tony Stark is that he can't stop being Tony Stark (he tried!!) That is the point.
The majority of pain Tony goes through, is pain he inflicts on himself, whether intentionally or inadvertently. That is the point.
He is not A villain (at least. Not usually. There are...some rough moments and arcs that are. Not great. As there is with any character as old as he is). But he is his own main antagonist.

prev post brought to you by Paolini practically apologizing at age 40 for writing a highly successful amalgamation of all his favorite stories at age 15. Sir it could be argued that you were winning at life.

So 1.6 is here and the Trailblaze continuance is interesting. Dr. Ratio is every bit as irritating and pompous as expected. I love him
Spoilers for the continuance quest in the tags cause y'all already know I gotta say something about this dude and it's about to get real neat

can I talk about the 001 tattoo?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
so we can agree the 001 is darker, thicker, and WAY bigger on Vecna, right? also it's got a vein running prominently right under it, which doesn't seem to match the anatomy of his wrist in the broom closet tat reveal. (idk if that's an original vein or some kind of vine nonsense tbf)
"oh that shot is dark and spooky and cluttered, maybe they just exaggerated it so you can see it" maybe but.. they can do literally anything with cg - zoom into his skin cells or whatever they gotta do to make sure we see that tattoo without having to make it cartoonishly large.
can I also talk about how Nancy sees the tattooing scene twice, and the tattoos look different?
I know em and/or james (sorry much like henward I forget which of you has said what lmao) have discussed the differences in lighting, etc. in the tattoo scenes and the fact that one is unfinished and so might be 000 instead of 001, but I wanted to touch on the Nancy aspect of it too.
just for clarity, the tattoo scenes go like this:
in 4x7 - "when Papa realized he could not control me, he tried to recreate me" we, and Nancy, see the boy getting tattooed 00(unfinished). this is the last time we see Nancy in 4x7.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
4x8 picks up with Nancy watching the tattooing, Brenner wiping off a finished 001, and then turning to her with creepy eyes. she tries to run, pries some boards off the doorway, and arrives back in the tattoo scene again.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
so although it's broken across two different episodes, this is all one continuous vision for Nancy (one thing split in two - isn't that fitting for a secret Henward reveal)
it's super weird that after Nancy runs from the tattoo scene, Vecna tells her "Now you've seen where I've been; I would like very much to show you where I am going" and then... sends her back into the tattoo scene?
why say that and then immediately show her more redundant "where he's been"? why not just have her bust through that doorway straight into the apocalypse vision, like Victor in wartime France?
"it's like El arriving in the Rainbow Room over and over" yes. it is! but that was El getting clockwork orange'd with HNL footage and her brain struggling to reject it. whereas this is Vecna. and Vecna, as far as we saw, doesn't usually force his victims into loops like that, right?
Max, Chrissy, Fred ran inside their visions. unsuccessfully, yes, but when they ran, they actually travelled. like, when Max ran in the graveyard, she didn't keep arriving at Billy's grave over and over. Chrissy didn't keep finding her mom in every room. so it's curious to me that the only loops are Nancy and El, both in the lab (or I should say, "in the lab" given that neither of them are actually in the lab). so Vecna deviated from his usual method because he reallllly wanted Nancy to see that tattoo some more.. it's just odd to me, IF those tattooings are truly supposed to be the same event.
why else are WE the audience shown this scene multiple times than because they need to have shown us two events, but made sure we conflated them as one? to assume that that was the same boy getting the same tattoo?
anyway, the actual tattoo:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the 00 in 4x7 seems a lot lighter in comparison to the very dark 001 we see being finished up in 4x8.
people with tattoos: do they start it light and then go over it darker? is that a thing? is the 4x7 a realistic depiction of the 4x8 tattoo in progress? because if not I have more thoughts.
btw if I wanted to get real crazy, I would point out that El's tattoo also seems to vary slightly - it seemed bigger when she was little (maybe that part makes sense. how do tattoos behave on growing children?) but also it keeps sneaking closer to her wrist. look how in s1 it's four tattoo-lengths from the crease of her wrist, and by s4 it's more like two. (does anyone know when MBB got that for real?)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
anyway I'll leave you with the thought of: remember those two extremely similar and redundant El-dragged-off-to-solitary scenes they showed us in s1?

good fucking food
#tomgreg#OH GOD OH FUCK#greg has agreed to do whatever tom has asked every time and this is the first time he's been like#no actually i'm gonna go to the bros myself despite the fact that tom told him not to#and tom's already taken the hit of nate being invited to the party which is still a sore spot#bc it was supposed to be his and sh*v's party just like it was supposed to be his and sh*vs wedding yet nate is there. again.#so he's like. ok greg let's strategise [i find strategy sexy] make me feel secure with you#and when greg does in fact not do that... oh man. tom's face he's noooot happy about it!!!#his voice goes all high pitched and he does an expression actually similar to sh*v lol#like FINE WHATEVER I DONT CARE DO WHAT YOU WANT [narrator voice: he did in fact care a lot]#but then he touches greg's back!!!!! aaargahrga! tom you are so transparent!!!! he's so very clearly attached to both sh*v and greg#like atp i don't care. he feels similarly to greg as he does to sh*v i've seen enough evidence this season to prove that to me#as in. feelings. romantically. when they hurt him he still loves them and is gentle with them until he can't take it any more.#i don't know when we'll see what happens with greg maybe next episode GOD#if the firing thing does happen which i don't want!!!! god!!!!! maybe THEN we'll see it#maybe an argument somewhat like his and sh*v's tho obviously not to the scale but like. WHO HAS HAD YOUR BACK THIS WHOLE TIME#WHO HAS EVER LOOKED AFTER YOU IN THIS FUCKING FAMILY#god. i need to seeee that. don't just leave it hangin jesse i'm begging you bestie#but like he is soooo bpd it is actually insane. i shake his hand#also ''team kenro'' probably wasn't grea tfor him to hear adksjds#WDYM TEAM KENRO DONT YOU MEAN TEAM NERSPOR >:(((

AU where Stain's creed isn't just an excuse to ambush random heroes and he actually does only attack the worst. Rip Endeavor.
Can you imagine tho an au where Stain is actually tracking down heroes who are corrupt, not this stupid "three per city" rule, just methodical research and hunting. Sometimes there's multiple bribe takers and makers killed in as many weeks. Sometimes he makes no move for months until suddenly another hero is found dead on top of pictures of their wrongdoings. He hunts like this for years, terrifying, because no one knows if it's one person or a group or copycats. He doesn't go after anyone to live and tell others about him.
I like to think after years of this though, perhaps when he goes after Nagant, he realizes she was fed bogus information straight from the commission and wasn't just taking out her own personal aggression on the innocent, and he realizes it isn't just corrupt licensed heroes he needs to go after- the Commission President is now on his hit list too, along with several other burocrats

I'm too scared to tag this, but I NEED to share. I've seen a few ppl mention this- but I will genuinely be kinda mad if TGS ends with Jekyll and Hyde merging into one person. Not as like- "Oh, we can sometimes control the body at the same time/fuse (temporarily)" that might be cool and interesting. I'm afraid of, "The end goal is being one person! It's happier and healthier to be one person!". (Or even Jekyll getting rid of Hyde forever, which i think is way less likely but also still depressing). I'm so. SO fucking tired of that trope, genuinely. (Side eyeing Ok Ko, and even worse, Total Drama). Honestly, I wouldn't even mind if it happens if it's framed as a bad thing (like It's eeeh but it's the better alternative ngl). I don't think permanently fuzing into one person Is a good thing I think it's fucking horrifying ngl. Some real abstract brain body horror. J&H are the same person but still have enough distinction to have differing opinions and appearances. I feel like i haven't seen enough exploration of the debilitating dysphoria and identity issues that would absolutely come with becoming one person. It's always framed as something good and I haaaate that 😭.
That and- look, I know it's not a DID thing i really do - but jesus, it is RLLY uncomfortably close to some awful DID stereotypes and misconceptions. The whole trope fills me with unimaginable ICK, and I can't STAND it. It, to me, almost reads like one of those "magic cure all" topes. Like boom pazzaz, everything is better now! It's soooo uhsuhdh. I hate it so much, y'all. It almost feels lazy. I 100% think that learning to co-exist in one body is sooo much more interesting and- idk healthier??? It's a stronger message to me, at least. (More rambles in the tags)
#that's number one fear for me#i don't even care if they die but if i have to sit through ANOTHER Remergeing trope where it's treated like a good thing#im gonna SCREAM#Ok Ko made me paranoid guys#the way they treated TKo was FOUL#Definitely probably attributed to the very unfortunately abrupt ending (DARN YOU CN shaking my fist)#idk i still have complicated feelings about it beacuse on one hand it was actually a rlly good message and metaphor#it just felt like TKo was so much of his own person- so the whole thing was weird 2 me#ok this is how iii personally see it so idk how anyone else sees it#but I always saw Jekyll as the whole and Hyde as a part of him insted of them being two halves.#maybe that's a tad obvious to some ppl?#look i don't talk to other J&H fans i've been echo chambering all my thoughts to myself and ppl who have no clue what i'm talking about#my only view of fanon has been fics and that's a terrible way to interact with fanon cuz some fics are just bad#(anyway back to the main point)#(frantically pointing at Handplates and the scene where Gaster is explaining The Nature of Ripping Things In Half)#i think that's a really good way to point out how i see them- trying to ripp something appart isn't going to result in a perfect split down#the middle#(it's also a fitting example because Gaster is talking about ripping up his soul and the reason that Sans came out smaller-#and Hyde is smaller and Jekyll is ripping up his soul. aaahhh i love a good fitting comparison)#anyway this is all to further highlight why im not a fan of the fuzing thing#like i said i always saw Jekyll as the whole and Hyde as a piece#so i don't find them to be fitting opposites- i don't think they are split down the middle perfectly? kinda?#i think Mind!Lanyon is a mmmore fitting opposite to Hyde?#so to me Jekyll and Hyde fusing into one person#both doesn't make sense to me and also feeds into a tope that i HATE#but honestly these are generally my thoughts about Jekyll and Hyde in general? not truly TGS exclusive#i know TGS is UUUBER different and that's the point (and good god do i love it for that <3)#so i hope im not letting my pre-existing opinions on J&H cloud what i think about TGS#gotta keep an open mind i dont wanna sound like a rambling dumbass HDHAHDHS#guys help i forgot what my personal ramble tag was
