Tony Just Wants to Finish His Drink: Alcohol in the MCU

thisisevenharderthannamingablog:

I’ve been meaning to write a post on this forever, and the topic recently went around again, so this seems like a good time. As per my usual method, my goal is to lay out what actually is in the source material, from which I will draw some conclusions and you will probably draw others.

Really interesting meta, but I’d like to correct the original meta writer to say that there *is* alcohol in The Incredible Hulk – Betty, Bruce and Leo drink wine at dinner before Bruce has his little wibbly moment, and then later, Bruce and Leo drink while they have their frankly amazing heart-to-heart. In the second scene, the wine is actually drawn attention to deliberately – Leo offers Bruce some wine, and Bruce says,‘if you’re having some’ and Leo says, ‘oh, I’m having a lot’.The sharing of the drink helps put both of them at ease enough to have their discussion about Betty and Bruce’s past, the residue that past has left on their present, and how Leo has learned to live with the shadow of Bruce in his and Betty’s relationship.

Summary: “Who is this?” he asks, torn between frustration and something like fear.

“There’s a warehouse on the bank of the Anacostia river,” a voice whispers. “In exactly thirty minutes, it’ll go up in flames. Coordinates to follow. Bring a large car or a van, something that can seat multiple civilians. Come alone.”

The line goes dead, and his phone buzzes a second later with a text. It’s an address.
Notes: Inspired by Bucky finds the tiny Steves by cassandrexx.

Based on this Tumblr post (specifically on the drabble by cassandrexx and the head canon by misspryss). Basically, there’s the twelve tiny Steves trope that has had some gorgeous fic and fanart done for it (most recently Raibean’s 12 Days of Steve), and this Tumblr post thew out the idea that rather than being mini-Supersoldiers, clones of Steve would turn out more like his pre-Rebirth self, ie. tiny, sick and feisty.

Ten thousand words later, and here we are. This isn’t to the letter absolutely compliant with the post. I went off at right angles, and explored more the feels than the lulz, and not all of the kids (or even the majority) are based on Steve. But hopefully it’s a worthy tribute.
