What name/handle do you go by? tsukinofaerii or any variation thereof.

What was your favorite Avengers movie moment? Ohgods, it's a tie between Natasha's opening scene and when Loki tried (and failed) to use the Glowstick of Destiny on Tony. Clearly Tony's tertiary superpower (after intellect and money) is snark.

What do you want in the next Marvel movie? Cameos. I want to see Bruce bumping around Tony's R&D department, Natasha having coffee with Pepper, Clint stalking people on rooftops. Random little things that don't necessarily add to the main plot but make it clear that they're all still tied together.

Any exciting fandom plans? Ummmm. ._. Writing fic? Orgies? More Fallen London? Finally editing those damned NaNo fics? I've got tons of plans. Execution is my weakness these days.

Share a gif/comic scan/random image? A gift of good will. Napkin not included

I like to think that this is Steve, in the middle of losing at strip poker. One of these days I'll find out the context of the gif and be horribly disappointed.

That would absolutely be amazing! Who needs a main plot? Let there be a movie of random cameos, I say.

Cameos for all! Team building shenanigans! Maybe a light villain or two thrown in for the boom. AIM is nebulous enough. Their entire goal is "do evil science for the sake of evil science".

Team bonding. They need team bonding. Since the Avengers Initiative was canceled on SHIELD's end, they need to find some other excuse to assemble unofficially. And then party. Or something. IDK I just want them to have fun and all be bros. And possibly all sleep together, because I walked out of the movie shipping everything and everyone.

AIM really are. But they're fun and handy. They don't need reasons, which makes them perfect stock villains.

He's losing at strip HORSE (the basketball game), so close enough! The gif is from What's Your Number which I thought was actually a delightful movie despite being someone who doesn't generally like rom-com. At the very least it is full of Chris Evans being his sexy self, and I have since been compelled to write a Tony/Steve AU of it which I hope will one day see the light of day. Because we all need a little more naked Steve in our lives.

HIS PANTS ARE MADE OF ACID.

Oh gosh, the Glow Stick of Destiny killed me because even Loki laughed. Also the sound it made on Tony's arc reactor. *tink*

*licks your gif shamelessly*

[tsukinofaerii.livejournal.com]

That was perfect. And I loved RDJ's acting. You could see that Tony hadn't anticipated being brainwashed and was about to go "oh shit" before he was saved by the reactor. Again.

I believe Marvel picks its main leads based on lickability. I have yet to be proven wrong.

[shinysylver.livejournal.com]

I loved how casual Tony was just pouring a drink all in his civilian clothes. He genuinely surprised Loki in that movie. So did Natasha. I don't think Loki was quite prepared for humans like them.

Lickability is an excellent way to cast in my opinion. It's worked out quite well for them...and us...

[tsukinofaerii.livejournal.com]

Tony is a master of keeping his cool. After IM 1&2, the man has it down.

Really, 90% of Loki's problems were caused by underestimating humans. (The other 10% are His Issues.) He said it straight up to Thor, he thinks he's better than them, and everytime he acts on that he got his ass handed to him. Fitting.

[shinysylver.livejournal.com]

Oh completely. Pretty much every diatribe Loki went on could be seen as his own issues. Projecting much? But I still had to love that Nat beat him at his own game and that Tony was just so badass awesome. The moment when Tony figured out the plan and also realized that he was actually a diva like Loki was one of my favorites too.

[tsukinofaerii.livejournal.com]

LOL I loved that. If you're watching Steve in that scene, you can see when he figures it out. Specifically, the word "diva". After that he's just sort of nodding along, waiting for Tony to make the connection. It's beautiful.

[traincat.livejournal.com]

That is a good gif and you should feel good.

Cameos! I would love to see cameos. Or even just little shoutouts, so long as they fit and feel natural.

[traincat.livejournal.com]

Wanda! I love her so much.

Highfive for Billy and Teddy, too. That scene was really sweet.

[traincat.livejournal.com]

Oh man Disassembled. ): I'm glad she's back now.

I have a lot of issues with the way Children's Crusade ended, but that kiss was very sweet and I was happy to see it actually on screen, so to speak.

(Friends? :D)

[tsukinofaerii.livejournal.com]

:D Chris Evans stripping: suitable for all occasions.

Yeah, I don't want anything shoe-horned in, but there's a lot of ways they can slip in connections. Coulson used to have that job; now I'd like to see it passed to Maria Hill. And then little snips of the other Avengers. It will be glorious. :D

[traincat.livejournal.com]

Yes please and thank you. I'll take twelve.

I am pretty impressed with how natural everything has felt so far. Fingers crossed that they can keep it up! And yesssss Maria Hill should be in all the movies. Looking disapproving. While being in car chases. Awesome car chases.

[shinysylver.livejournal.com]

I honestly thought that was why they killed Coulson. To bring in an actual comic character and another woman to fill a similar role now that things are off and running. And that car chase was awesome. Driving backwards in a tunnel.

[traincat.livejournal.com]

That would make a lot of sense. (Beyond, you know, this is Joss Whedon, here to leave a reminder that he can strike at any time.) As much as I like Coulson, I'd be pretty excited to see Maria Hill showing up in that way. That chase was badass.

[shinysylver.livejournal.com]

I actually saw an interview where Joss said they made him kill Coulson...like he agreed it worked...but it wasn't his idea and he wanted the fans to know it. LOL.

[shinysylver.livejournal.com]

Here is the Joss interview about it. (http://io9.com/5909088/joss-whedon-explains-why-he-had-to-do-unspeakable-things-to-one-character-on-the-avengers)
