Fancast: Aldis Hodge as Tony Stark
#marvel#genius billionaire playboy philanthropist#oh my goddddddd#i’m automatically a million times more interested in rich kind of dickish superheroes when they are poc tbh#because like imagine being a little black boy growing up so so so smart and so so so alone#half your teachers dismissing you when you get bored and restless because you already KNOW all this stuff#and focusing on your disruptive behaviour that results from that combination of boredom and loneliness#you grow up without any real peers because the other kids at your rich fancy private school are all white#and nobody would ever dare say anything but you’re self-conscious anyway#so you deal with it by being as outrageous as possible because then at least you can control why they look at you askance#your dad’s been trying to prove himself to long gone heroes for as long as you can remember#and your mother loves you but she doesn’t always understand you#they die young and you go off the rails and it doesn’t even sting that they all think you’ve proven them right#because you kind of believe it as well#you’ve grown up never seeing a black boy on the television who wasn’t violent#and even when you get straightened out some with help from rhodey there’s a long fucking way to go#but you reach out and you /demand/ respect because you’re angry and you want justice for all your wrongs#the media never really accept you; they’re hungry for more of your misadventures so they can paint you like a villain#I COULD GO ON BUT I DON’T THINK IT’LL FIT IN THE TAGS
