It is time for another...
Discussion Question Wednesday!
This week we'll be talking about angst. Angst has always been a staple of the fandom and right now canon is bombarding us as well. Ultimates is dealing with the aftermath of Cataclysm, in MCU the emotional fall out of Captain America: Winter Soldier is still fresh, and 616 canon is ramping up for Original Sin that is expected to be an outright angst fest for Steve and Tony.

What type of angst do you like and why?
Both of our heroes come with inherit flaws and talents that just make them ripe for angst, whether it is canon or in the our imagination. Let's talk about our favorite angsty moments in fics, art and canon. I want to hear about that idea that hits you right in the feels every time you think about it. I know some of you have songs and playlists devoted to Steve and Tony angst, share them with us. I've got my box of tissues ready cause I know you are going to make me cry.

Discussion Question Wednesday is going to run every other week. Anonymous comments are welcome.

I like the angst in the Civil War fics where Steve and Tony try to reconcile but it doesn't quite work out.

There is something very poignant about those. I can see why those appeal to you.
