Progress was made quickly after the team committed to an adult discussion.

‘Ultimately,’ Rogers remarked, ‘I don’t agree. But I get why Tony’s concerned.’

‘Thanks Cap. You raise compelling points yourself.’

‘Sure is complicated,’ sighed Rhodes.

‘A proposal,’ said the Vision, having been quiet. ‘If the accords fail to address the full complexity of our context, might we reply with an alternative?’

Wilson looked up. ‘You’re saying negotiate?’

‘Could work,’ said Stark. Rogers nodded.

‘Well,’ replied Romanov. ‘Thank God that didn’t escalate.’

Bucky [voiceover]: Well, I was in such a state of shock, I completely blacked out. I can’t remember a thing. It wasn’t until later, when I was washing the blood off my hands, I even knew they were dead.

buttersmd replied to your post:my civil war feelings: no one was right, EVERYONE…

yes thank you! I keep reading reviews where it’s like ‘you’re either team cap or team iron man’ and i’m always like ummm…. I’m team grow the hell up because none of you are handling this like adults.

oh my god RIGHT. I was team cap based on the comics bc the whole superhuman/mutant registration act thing was obviously horrifying but that’s not what this was at ALL, not even a little, so Cap’s objection turns from moral high ground to ‘I WOULD agree to UN oversight instead of just running around the world blowing things up with no consequences BUT my bff is more important than civilian casualties or responsibility’ 

of course Tony also handled things poorly but that was kinda expected going in, tbh. End result is ‘THIS IS WHY YOU PEOPLE NEED ADULT (NON-EVIL, NON-TRAUMATIZED, NON-SPY) SUPERVISION’ 

Omg yes, if they’d just TALK TO EACH OTHER for ten minutes

i assume you’re talking about marvel’s civil war, or as i like to call it “a bunch of people with undiagnosed, untreated ptsd punch each other for two and a half hours”?

yeah the action sequences were frequently delightful but at the end of the day, everyone in that movie needs a mug of hot tea, a warm blanket, and a counselor to remind them to take deep breaths and speak in “i” statements and will you really be able to overcome your trauma by punching out another super-traumatized person?

There’s no form of headcanon that I more consistently struggle with than headcanons about politics, like, I just cannot believe that literally every member of the Avengers is going to vote for Bernie Sanders 

BUT HAVING SAID THAT, I am a hypocrite and do care deeply about Thor and politics, where he doesn’t really care about American government (and come on, he’s royalty, there’s got to be a part of him that’s like “what’s with this election bullshit, Jane, explain democracy to me once more,” and Jane’s like “WE DON’T HAVE DEMOCRACY, WE HAVE AN OLIGARCHY OF THE RICH AND POWERFUL,” because, yeah, this little anti-military, space and alien loving hippy living in her van is probably half socialist, half conspiracy theorist), but Thor is PASSIONATE about:

  1. The political goings on of every Nordic state 
  2. The local government of the small town he and Jane settled in

He is the worst person to have at your local town meetings. He does not believe in the two minute slot for speaking. He has memorized Robert’s Rules of Order and every part of the local tax code. He understands how many trucks were supposed to be going up and down this road, and he doesn’t understand why the city council has not dealt with that. No, he won’t sit down, he’s still talking. He has opinions about the town parks. They are too small.
