it’s hard to be anywhere these days (when all i want is you) - five

part one. // part two. // part three. // part four.

five.

Sophia didn’t return for a whole month, and Peter’s despair grew.

She had always been hard to read. In that sense, she was unpredictable like Tony, but Tony was more emotional than the man himself would ever admit. Sophia, on the contrary, had a control of her emotions that made Peter absolutely clueless as to what she could be feeling.

Objectively, she cared about him—she had told him so. But what did that entail? Was she in love with him too or did she only see him as a friend? Had she broken off her engagement because of him? Had she kissed him because she loved him, or had it been an impulse she was regretting now? Was she avoiding Peter because he deserved it after everything he’d done or because she didn’t want him to get any strange ideas?

It was driving him insane, especially because, part of him, had already started imagining what it would be like for them to be together. He had never allowed himself to think about that before—it had always seemed impossible. But now, he’d gotten a taste of what it could be like, and he believed he would die if he spent another day without her.

“I’m throwing a party,” Tony commented as he observed the bots tidying up the workshop—or, really, making more of a mess of it.

He had finally decided to move back to his penthouse in the Upper East Side because ‘it was closer to Pepper’s work’ and ‘that hippie era of his life where he lived in a farm was over now that he was as recovered as he would ever be’.

Or that was what he’d told Peter. After what Sophia had said, he knew that he was doing it to be closer to Peter now that he was ‘done with his rebellious era’, as Tony also liked to call it.

It made him incredibly happy and cherished. He didn’t even try to hide his tears when Tony had told him he wasn’t moving to LA after all.

“A party?” Peter echoed, confused. “What for?”

“To christen the penthouse, of course.”

“But you’ve already lived here before.”

“Let’s start celebrating the little things in life, kid,” Tony said, rolling his eyes. “Besides, Pepper has remodelled the whole thing. It’s practically a new place.”

Peter couldn’t help but smile. “Okay. When is the party going to be?”

“Well, it’s just a fancy dinner.” Then, as an afterthought, he added: “Sophia’s coming too.”

His brain short-circuited. “What?”

Tony shrugged as if he hadn’t just dropped a bomb on him. Peter knew him too well not to have seen the devious glint in his eyes though.

“Shall I expect you and May too?” he asked instead, cocking an eyebrow the same way Sophia did.

Peter could only nod, his cheeks on fire.

***

Every superhero and/or enhanced being was there.

Iron Man. Thor. Captain America. The Falcon. Hawkeye. Doctor Strange. Quill. His fellow insect people, Ant-Man and the Wasp. The chick with the antennas. The Hulk—was he even still the Hulk? Didn’t matter. There were some Peter had never even heard of.

Even Miss Potts had come to fight, which had surprised him beyond belief, wearing a suit Peter hoped she would let him check out later—if they survived, that was.

After seeing her, he thought he’d seen everything and everyone—until the Valkyrie dropped him on the ground after taking the gauntlet and one of those gigantic monsters tried to cut him in half.

Except someone blasted it off before Peter could get hurt.

At first, he thought it was Pepper. The suit had a similar colour at first glance, and the shape was different than Tony’s, more feminine. When it landed at his feet—he was all sprawled out on the ground—and the helmet showed the person inside, Peter’s jaw dropped.

It was Sophia.

“Holy shit,” he gasped, widening his eyes. “He made you a suit?! That’s so freaking cool and—”

But Peter’s excitement died in his throat when he saw her expression.

He’d seen that expression before. It was similar to the one Tony had had when he’d seen Peter just a while ago—hope, disbelief, amazement, pain, sorrow; all in one look. Before opening the portal that took them off Titan, Doctor Strange had mentioned Thanos’ success in his genocidal plan and how they’d been dead for six months, but everything had happened too fast for him to process what that meant.

It hit him then. He’d been dead for six months and—thank God—Sophia hadn’t. She’d had to mourn him.

He took off his mask but, before he could say anything, Sophia jumped on him, hugging him tightly as her body shook.

“You’re back,” she sobbed, the sound coming out muffled by the way she was sinking her face on his neck. “You’re really back.”

She was still in her suit but that didn’t stop Peter from surrounding her with his arms, closing his eyes to tune out the mayhem and brutality of the battle and appreciate her presence. He breathed her in, his heart taking off at the feeling of her.

For him, it had only been two days since he’d last seen her, not six months, but it might as well have been. She had been in his mind all the time while he’d been on his spontaneous space quest, wondering if he would ever see her again.

“Yeah… yeah, I am. I’m here,” Peter mumbled, pressing his mouth on the crown of her head without thinking. “I’m sorry I couldn’t fight it.”

She let out another sob that also sounded like a laugh, hugging him even tighter. “Only you would apologise for dying.”

He smiled. “Well, I did keep you waiting for a while.”

Sophia drew away slightly, probably to get mad at him, but an explosion coming from nearby startled them.

“A LITTLE HELP, LOVEBIRDS?” The Falcon shouted as he flew over them, firing his whole arsenal like a madman.

Peter quickly put his mask back on; more to hide his blush than anything else. Sophia, on the other hand, rolled her eyes and blasted something off over Peter’s shoulder.

“I thought you were the bird here, pigeon,” she shouted back.

“What did you just call me, young lady?”

Sophia shot Peter a cheeky grin before her face was covered by her helmet and she took off to assist Sam.

“I can see those heart-eyes even with your mask on, Queens,” Captain America’s voice said through the intercom. “Get your arse over here.”

***

Peter had been avoiding people for over two years, so it was a bit overwhelming when he arrived with May at Tony’s penthouse and he found it so crowded.

Pepper and Happy were there. So was Colonel Rhodes and some of the Avengers, but he couldn’t really focus on anyone except on the girl he’d been missing for a month—the girl he’d been missing his whole life, actually.

Sophia looked breath-taking in a dark green dress, with her long hair down in natural waves and her huge eyes standing out even more because of the subtle make-up she was wearing. Her smile was blinding as she talked to people, and Peter felt a stab in his chest, wishing he could be on the receiving end of one of those smiles.

“We should go and say hi,” May said, giving him a pointed look before looking in Sophia’s direction.

Peter nodded, feeling like a small kid again as he followed behind his aunt with hunched shoulders.

“May!” Sophia exclaimed when she saw them approaching. Her eyes found Peter’s briefly and her smile faltered for a second before she plastered it back on. “I’m so glad you came!”

The two of them hugged as he stood there awkwardly.

“It’s so good to see you, sweetie.”

“You too. How are you feeling?”

“Oh, I’m as good as new.”

They started to chit-chat and exchange pleasantries, completely ignoring his presence, particularly Sophia.

“She was faking,” Peter blurted out because his social skills had never been the best. He blushed when both of them looked at him. “May did know who I was.”

His aunt bit back a smile as Sophia arched an eyebrow at him.

“Yeah, I know,” she dead-panned.

Peter blinked. “What? You did? But you said—” he trailed off, and realisation dawned on him. “You were only trying to make me go see her.”

She shrugged. “Yep, but it still didn’t work. I guess you only needed a near-death experience to make you realise you were being an idiot,” she bit with a sharp smile. “If you’ll excuse me, I’ll go say hi to the new arrivals.”

And with that, she shot May a smile and left without giving Peter another glance. He watched her go, motionless on his spot, his stomach churning unpleasantly.

“She hates me,” he whispered.

His aunt gave him a pity look. “She doesn’t hate you, sweetie. She’s just—angry. It’ll take time.”

“How much time?” he asked hopelessly.

“It’s proportional to how much you’ve screwed up—which isn’t exactly little,” his aunt tried to joke, but it didn’t help.

Pepper came over them, probably sensing Peter hadn’t been very welcomed by Sophia, and tried to smooth things down. Soon enough, however, Peter was forgotten again as May and Pepper began catching up, so he sneaked away from them.

Peter didn’t want to look so desperate or make her feel uncomfortable, but he couldn’t help but follow her around like a lost puppy. He kept his distance, never getting close enough to be in the same circle of people she was chatting with, but he was always around—and he could tell that it bothered her.

At first, Sophia was doing a wonderful job at pretending he didn’t exist, but as time passed and he didn’t relent, her eye began to twitch, and her shoulders tensed. By the time Tony called everyone to the huge fancy table he—well, Pepper—had set up and she found out that they would be sitting next to each other, her irritation was palpable.

However, dinner went by pleasantly. Mostly everyone participated in the conversation and the food was so good it kept everyone distracted. Besides, it was a time for celebration—things would never go back to being the same as they used to be, but they were finding peace and happiness in what they were rebuilding together after so much loss and pain.

Sophia was in a good mood. She was clearly happy to see her father doing so well and spending time with people he loved. But Peter could easily notice the three moments that drove her to explode—and they all had to do with him.

The first one was truly an accident. He noticed her glass was empty and he wanted to have a nice gesture, so he attempted to fill it with more wine. It was just bad timing he chose to do it at the exact same moment she went to reach for the bottle, making their hands brush.

It felt like touching a livewire; his whole body reacting to that simple touch as if it had been electrocuted. Sophia quickly drew away, the only sign that she had realised it had happened being the tight clench of her jaw.

“Sorry,” he mumbled sheepishly.

She didn’t try to reach for her glass again.

The second moment was kind of his fault. He heard her phone vibrate before she felt it, so when she pulled it out to look at it under the table, Peter was already paying attention.

Brad, the ID caller said. With a heart emoji.

It was Peter who tensed then, albeit involuntarily, and she noticed him looking down at her phone as well. She declined the call and glared at him.

“Don’t be such a busybody,” she snapped under her breath.

He blushed but couldn’t find it in himself to let it go.

“I thought—I thought you’d broken it off,” Peter stuttered, conscious of how lame he sounded. “The engagement.”

She looked away, fixing her gaze on Rhodey, who was telling one of his anecdotes, even though it was clear she wasn’t really listening.

“Who told you that?”

Peter’s heart fell. “Tony and May. Were they wrong?”

She didn’t answer immediately, and he felt like he was choking, until:

“No,” she said quietly. “No, they weren’t wrong.”

“Then why was he calling you?” he insisted. “Are you—Are you still together?”

Sophia finally looked at him, her expression harsh. “That’s none of your business, Peter.”

He wanted to argue and say something like you made it my business when you kissed me, but he didn’t want her to get more mad. It wasn’t the right time or place to discuss it either, with Tony just two seats away and half of the Avengers sitting at the same table.

“Please,” he whispered instead. “Just say yes or no.”

He held her gaze with begging eyes and, ultimately, it was her who looked away again. She filled her glass with more wine and took a large sip before she obliged him.

“No,” she ground out.

He was so relieved he could have laughed hysterically, but he was already walking on a thin line. Even so, he couldn’t stop the smile that broke out on his face and she clearly noticed it.

“Stop talking to me,” Sophia bit, shooting him a glare. “You already have practice on that. Put it to good use.”

Peter ignored the jab, even if it hurt, and shook his head.

“No,” he said stubbornly and determinedly. “I’m not doing that any more.”

She huffed. “Until I get kidnapped or something and you make it all about you again.”

Ouch.

“You are too smart to get kidnapped,” Peter shrugged. “And I’m sure they would beg us to take you back in only a matter of hours. You’re a pain in the ass.”

Her eyes widened at his reply, not having expected it, which made him feel incredibly smug—especially when he caught her lips twitching, as if she wanted to smile but was trying hard not to.

The third moment happened later, while they were having dessert. It was brief and he had nothing to do with it, but it was the last straw. Sophia was, after all, known to be short-tempered.

“We should do this more often,” Sam commented. “When’s the wedding again?” he asked Sophia innocently.

“There’s not going to be a wedding,” she replied with a tight smile. “But what makes you think you would get invited to it anyway?”

“What?” Sam blinked, genuinely surprised. And, to Peter’s horror—or delight—, the Falcon looked at him. “Did you get cold feet or something?”

A silence so tense it could be cut with a knife fell on those nearby them. Sophia turned as white as Peter’s face was red. Bucky, who was sitting next to Sam, shook his head imperceptibly, as if his friend was a lost cause. Rhodey winced visibly and Bruce pretended to be enthralled by his cake. But it was Tony, out of all people, who raised the bet.

“Nah, I still have hopes for that wedding,” he said nonchalantly. “But in a few more years.”

Sam looked so confused that it was tempting for Peter to laugh and tease him the way he would have done in other circumstances. The fact that Tony had said something like that wasn’t to be taken lightly either, as one of his biggest concerns had always been the man’s reaction to Peter’s not-at-all-platonic feelings for his one and only precious daughter.

He looked at Sophia, but she was already throwing her napkin unceremoniously on the table and walking away.

It took Peter five whole seconds to hastily get up and follow her.

“What the fuck?” he heard Sam ask. “Will someone explain to me what’s going on?”

six.

To be honest, I am not a big fan of season two of What if..? See, I absolutely loved seasons one, the zombie episode, the one with Thor,... It was incredibly cool, but season 2? You could've called it "captain America gender bent-the show". Peggy has no character whatsoever, she's just female Steve.

When I first heard of the episode titles I was so ready. "What If... Peter Quill Attacked Earth's Mightiest Heroes?", "What If... the Avengers Assembled in 1602?", especially the later one. I was so ready but it was just about Peggy the whole time and - at least in my opinion - that's not what What if..? Is supposed to be about.

What if...? Season one was great, you had multiple single episodes that worked together to end in one fight but season 2 was messy, the cool titles where completely ignored. The avengers didn't assemble in 1602, the episode just focused on Peggy and not even giving her her own story, they basically just stole Steves lines although they could have established her as her own character in this show too.

Getting really annoyed by Marvel lately

Despite All Your Losing Addendum

Since there were questions about how the timeline might be altered

aka How Thor's "Happy Ending" led to a Happy Ending

slightly NSFW

The prayer stretched across the universe and performed a minor miracle. After Thanos used the Space Stone to send his fleet across the universe, the aftermath of Thano's battle with Thor and the Hulk caught up with him.

Thanos: There are more Stones to collect, I must be at my peak if others try to resist me. I shall rest.

So, he took a villain nap. That gave the Guardians time to get to Knowhere first.

Peter: Give us the Reality Stone now.

Collector: And why should I give it to you?

Gamora: Thanos is coming. He will kill you slowly while breaking your collection one by one in front of you until he gets what he wants.

Peter: We'll give it back once he's dead.

Collector: Paper or plastic?

Thor, Rocket and Groot forged the Stormbreaker and Thor got to be impressive and restart the forge and all that good stuff.

Thanos arrived at Knowhere, ignorant that he was too late.

Thanos: Where is the--

Collector: The Stone is gone, your daughter has it.

Thanos: That's....inconvenient. I don't know where she is so I can't use the Space Stone; I'll have to adjust my plans. If I obtain the Mind Stone then I can exert my will and force the other holders of the Infinity Stones to give them to me. Yes, this will do.

Collector: Plot outside of my museum or buy a ticket.

Meanwhile, Nebula tricked a guard and escaped to Titan.

Double meanwhile, on Titan Dr. Strange used the Time Stone to see into the future while Tony Stark and Peter Parker wait.

Tony: What did you see, Strange?

Dr. Strange: Hmmm, oh everything's fine. We just need to sit tight and wait for a ride.

PP: Really? Can it be that easy?

Dr. Strange: In this universe.

PP: Yes, the Parker luck has been defeated.

Triple Meanwhile, on Earth, Wakanda and Team Cap prepared for their last stand. Events played out like the movie, the Children of Thanos fell, and there were lots of "wow, my favorite hero has done a cool thing" moments. Then, Thanos himself arrived to claim his long awaited victory.

However, in this universe he possessed only two of the Infinity Stones. He still wiped the floor with the Avengers but Wanda, in an act of profound sacrifice and love, destroyed the Mind Stone and with it, Vision. Thanos, thwarted, reached out to crush the skull of the Witch who has destroyed his dream when the Mighty Thor, Stormbreaker in hand, attacked.

In this universe, he did not miss, and thus rendered the Mad Titan's head from his body. It was over.

Steve called Tony with the news: Thanos is dead, we've won.

Tony, having hooked up his communicator to the ship Nebula stole received the message.

Tony: Thank god.

Steve: We lost Vision.

Tony: Look, I can help fix him when I get back, we're currently in space but we're hitching a ride with Blue Meanie.

Nebula: Call me Blue Meanie again and I'm leaving you here.

Tony: Fair enough.

On Earth.

Thor: Captain, call me when we have a victory party, I've got some post battle energy to work off.

Steve: Okay....

Thor: Where's the Rabbit and Tree?

Thor grabed Rocket and Groot and Bifrosted them all straight onto the Benatar.

Peter: AH! What the hell was that? You could have wrecked the ship, what is wrong with you?

Thor wasn't listening and he casually threw Peter over his shoulder.

Thor: Off to claim my prize, we'll be back in a few hours.

Gamora: Not without me you're not.

Thor: Wouldn't dream of it.

They all ran off to Peter's room, Peter cursing them out the entire time.

Rocket: What the flark was that?

Drax: A god like Thor must be full of hormones after a battle. He is off to have his way with Quill.

Rocket: I did not need to hear that!

Drax: Mantis, I know it must distress you that your brother and the Pirate Angel--

Rocket: Wait, brother?

Groot: I am Groot?

Mantis placed her hands on Rocket's and Groot's foreheads.

Mantis: Forget.

They forgot what they heard instantly. Then, for good measure, Mantis touched Drax's arm.

Mantis: Give me your Zarg nuts.

Drax handed her his package without a second thought.

Mantis sat by a window, looking out into the vast inky black of space while enjoying her Zarg nuts. The crunch helped block out the noise of her brother loudly enjoying himself.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (Marvel Studios, PG-13)

When Guardians of the Galaxy came out in 2014, I didn't know a single person who knew who they were. No one knew who Starlord was, Gamora, Drax, Groot, Rocket Raccoon, none of them. It was one of the only times I walked into a theater for an MCU movie and thought, “Why am I here? I don't care about these characters at all.” Ironically, the other instance of this thought was before watching Captain America: The First Avenger. Luckily, I was very wrong on both occasions. What James Gunn did with the first Guardians movie was nothing short of a small miracle. The Guardians of the Galaxy were a middling hero team devised in the late 60s. One that, as I mentioned before, never really reached any amount of wide acclaim. When the team was rebooted in 2008, with the members seen in the movie that would come six years later, still its readership remained low. In May of 2023, the names Starlord, Gamora, Rocket, Groot, Drax, and Nebula are household names.

Guardians of the Galaxy, as an MCU team, is unique. Preceding the now-inbound Thunderbolts, the Guardians are the closest thing to DC’s Suicide Squad. Though the Guardians aren't ostensibly villains, nor are they part of a government initiative to leverage villains into doing good things by holding a proverbial gun to their head, the Guardians of the Galaxy are all misfits and ne’er-do-wells. Peter Quill being a thief, Rocket an arms dealer, Groot being Rocket’s muscle, Gamora is essentially an assassin, and Drax is called The Destroyer. They are all bad people to differing degrees. So what James Gunn had to do with the first film was two or threefold: He had to introduce us to who these people were, convince us we should care about what they do, and then make us care about them both individually and as a group. To this day, the first Guardians of the Galaxy movie is one of the closest things to a perfect execution in establishing a relationship with unknown characters.

Now, nearly ten years later, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 seeks to remind us why we cared, show us we were right to care, and make us root for our beloved misfits one last time. Ya’ll…it fucking rules.

It’s been a while since we last saw The Guardians. We saw them off in Endgame, traveling with a disheveled and melancholic Thor, and then in Thor: Love and Thunder we saw them unload the God of Thunder, moving on to do their own thing. When the Guardians of the Galaxy Christmas Special came out Thanksgiving weekend last year, we got to see Knowhere (the Guardians’ base) rebuilt, and the introduction of Cosmo the Space Dog. We also fully establish that Starlord isn't doing well with the death/return/departure of Gamora. Guardians Vol. 3 picks up from there. Starlord is out of it, drinking himself into a stupor, the rest of the team is just kind of milling about in Knowhere, and the mood is pretty stale. Enter one of Marvel’s most powerful and heroes Adam Warlock, only the Warlock is here not to help, but as a repo man for the fabled High Evolutionary, the madman who turned Rocket into the creature he is today. This initial and shocking attack sends the guardians on a quest to save the life of a mortally wounded member. It’s a race against the clock film, with a little globetrotting heist film stirred in.

Along this journey we are served up dollops of emotion. The film is framed around flashbacks illuminating Rocket’s journey under the knife and eye of the High Evolutionary. A villain portrayed brilliantly by Chukwudi Iwuji, and a villain that outshines so many villains in the MCU purely because of his acting. The High Evolutionary is a despicable, maniacal, monster of a man and each moment he is on screen your skin crawls. Truly, everyone in this movie is acting their whole asses off. Each performance is nuanced and intense, emotional and gripping. ITs something only a movie following two parts, like this one, can pull off. We all know everyone so deeply, we’ve grown to love them all, grown to admire their found family. So when this family of weirdos is put to a real test, one that threatens all of their lives in ways we haven't seen before, what comes through the cracks is this pure and natural love and passion. It works like glue throughout the film, like connective tissue, pulling each little bit you’ve ever remembered about this rag-tag team and placing it neatly in order for you to experience again.

Rocket and Groot share their dynamic in new ways, Starlord and Gomora have some truly dynamite scenes navigating their new and nonexistent relationship, Mantis remains one of the best additions to the team as she and Drax foil each other, and Karen Gillan’s Nebula is a tremendous stand-in for the Gamora we lost in Infinity War. But this movie isn't merely old bits. It’s reimagined bits, moments illustrative of the ways family evolves and adapts. As you are recognizing the way these people interact with each other, you are also recognizing that the first time we met them, none of them would have been willing to do this. This Guardians of the Galaxy is stronger, closer, and emotionally available to each other in was the previous movies simply couldn't convincingly do with everyone. Furthermore we get more Kraglin and we get Cosmo. The Guardians of the Galaxy has changed so much in the comics over the years it begins to feel like dozens of heroes have claimed membership. In the hands of a lesser director and writer this can be a pitfall that lends to shallow writing and skin-deep characters. In James Gunn’s hands instead it lends to this tone of acceptance and love, resolute with making it clear: all types are welcome here, strange and broken as you may be. It’s downright endearing, and such a refreshing take in a world far too comfortable being unaccepting and cruel.

James Gunn’s delicately procured playlist of songs is present again in this film, and just like the films that precede it, each song fits and feels like it was meant for each moment it is played in. Perhaps as a result or side-effect, sometimes the film’s score feels a bit out of place, but I rarely caught myself caring so much it interrupted my enjoyment of what I was watching. Perhaps because what you will be watching throughout the film is pretty outstandingly composed. Action scenes are cooperative and hectic, without losing fidelity or readability. In-fact, most of the action is so well shot and choreographed it plays out like anime fights, dripping in style and out of the box angles. I deeply appreciated this simply because superhero flicks, especially those featuring folks with similar powersets or fighting styles, can start to feel less like composed orchestras and far more like pop singles. And while Guardians Vol. 3 has its pockets lined with singles from the 80s and 90s, the format doesn't permeate or seep into the action.

Also, for a movie in a freshly launched Phase 5 MCU, it feels like both the real and proper send off to Phase 4 and the best foot to start Phase 5 on. A dichotomy that is not easy to navigate and perhaps even harder to accomplish with a legible, parsable plot. We take everything we knew before and expand our knowledge, but we also wrap up our loose threads, tucking them into a neat-ish bow. In the process of doing this, James Gunn and his cast deliver what will end up being one of the more emotional Marvel movies released yet, content with plucking on heart strings like Redbone.

Ya’ll, it’s just such a good movie. They did all the work they needed to beforehand, allowing them the runway to gracefully land this deeply heartfelt trilogy in a way most other properties are unable to. There are dark moments and joyous moments, funny and sad, furious and tender, and all of it fits because we know who these people are and we know how they feel. It all feels just so deeply earned and earnest. It may be a lot to take in for young fans, but this trilogy is nearly a decade old now, those fans that were young in the first film are adults now, and as those fans aged with the Guardians, the Guardians came to them with more deep and pointed stories about loss, brokenness, and family. Messages that will stick with people for years.

If this truly marks the end of James Gunn’s involvement in the MCU then it is a masterful goodbye to some of the best characters in the whole MCU. If he decides to come back someday, well then I will be just as excited for whatever comes. But for now, go and see if the galaxy’s quirkiest band of misfits can worm their way into your emotions too. They sure found a way to pummel mine. In the best way.

Movie Pitch: Rocket Raccoon and Nebula Are NOT Guardians of the Galaxy

Set during the middle of Endgame. Rocket and Nebula are the only two remaining members of the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Rocket has fixed the Benatar on Earth. Nebula, who was not able to fix said ship even with the help of Tony Stark and all her android parts, is beginning to see him in a new light. Not just a pet to be kept around by her sister. That he was a real friend worth having.

But he is not her friend. And he is angry with her. He's angry with everyone. Thanos killed everyone Rocket cared about. And that is the one thing he has in common with Nebula, because she only cared about her sister.

While "The Avengers" get back to their lives. Nebula and Rocket have nothing. No purpose. No aim. They could stay on Earth with Natasha and do whatever she wants. But Earth isn't their home and the Avengers aren't their team. (Plus the Earth people keep calling Rocket a "raccoon" and that sounds like something dumb! He's NOT a raccoon!)

Rocket reveals he thinks "Pete's plan" would have worked to stop Thanos if he hadn't gone with Thor. (But then, Nebula points out, the tree would not have been there to forge the weapon that did kill Thanos.)

Rocket feels like Quill and Gamora were the leaders of the Guardians, and they had to tell him and Drax and Mantis what to do. He wasn't the Captain. He was just part of the crew.

Nebula didn't even get that far. She tells Rocket that Gamora invited her to join the team at the end of Vol 2. But she wanted to kill Thanos herself. She was consumed with vengeance for what he had done to her. She thought Gamora would be there to help her stop being an a-hole when she got back.

She would rather have Gamora alive than Thanos dead, something she never thought was possible.

So they decide to give it a try. They be Guardians of the Galaxy. Rocket will try to do what he thinks Quill would do. Nebula will try to do what he thinks Gamora would do.

There are people out there in their galaxy that need saving and that idiot Captain Marvel and her dumb haircut isn't on the strange, outside the powerful Empires plants that they frequent. That's where folks really need saving.

The actual plot would revolve around them initially helping the wrong people in a conflict (sort of similar to the twist that the Skrulls were refugees). Rocket has to trust his instincts about who is "good."

ETA: Possibly something about the Collector. On paper he is "good" because he tried to keep an Infinity Stone from Thanos. But he's also stealing beings and putting them in cages.

Maybe he tells them to retrieve a former being in his collection that was "very dangerous" but it turns out to be Howard the Duck or Cosmo or something.

Nebula learns to be a bit more vulnerable with Rocket and admit her cybernetics have been malfunctioning. She doesn't like asking for help. (Though it shouldn't be the arm that is burned off later or the wifi that causes problem later.) So I guess something with her eye. That could lean into the theme of them literally not seeing that the "goodness" to be "real" Guardians of the Galaxy has always been in them.

Ends with them deciding the Guardians need to buy a place to bring refugees to. Misfits, like them. Knowhere is considered but the Collector has too steep an asking fee. (Oh, I'll get those credits, says Rocket.)

Let’s Discuss the Infinity Stones

I’m world building for a fic largely inspired by dls’s “If You Had This Time Again,” which is a time travel fix-it focusing on the infinity stones. So of course I pulled out my stack of papers containing infinity stones info and I had the thought to post what I have on here just in case someone would like to use it. Forewarning, this information focuses on the stones in relation to the movies.

As we know, there are six stones all together. Here they are in no particular order:

Soul Stone

The soul stone is an orange stone located on the planet Vormir, or more accurately can be accessed on the planet Vormir. It’s location was unknown until Gamora, a daughter of Thanos, discovered it’s whereabouts in 2014. The Nazi Johann Schmidt, aka Red Skull, transported to Vormir in 1945 and was appointed the guide to the stone. According to Schmidt, a soul is required to obtain the soul stone. Not just any soul but a soul loved by the acquirer. “You must loose that of which you love. A soul for a soul.”

The orange gem grants mastery of the soul. Meaning the wielder can alter and manipulate all souls. It can also preserve the soul to allow for life after death, resurrect the dead, and conjure the spirit of a dead being. The soul stone has its own pocket dimension only accessible to the user.

My personal head canon is that Schmidt is only telling a half truth. He’s both harming and helping the visitors. I don’t think the soul has to be loved to get the stone but I do believe that the stone respects the sacrifice more and you are only allowed to hold the stone in hand when it contains a soul connected to yours. I also think the stone is less likely to twist your commands for this reason.

Mind Stone

The mind stone is a yellow stone that was housed inside a scepter. This scepter was given to Loki by Thanos to help with his invasion of New York, United States, Earth in 2012. It was then taken by SHIELDRA and used by Baron Von Strucker to give the Maximoff twins their powers between 2013-2015. (sorry I don’t know when exactly their experiments took place) The Avengers recovered the scepter in 2015 and placed it in Avengers Tower where it corrupted Ultron and then was finally placed inside Vision’s head.

The yellow gem gives its wielder the power of telepathy. It can be used to influence a person’s thoughts or actions. It also grants the user a sense of all-knowing intelligence mainly via their ability to access minds.

Power Stone

The power stone is a purple stone that was covered by an orb structure kept on the planet Morag. Peter Quill, aka Starlord, took the orb from Morag and it was then used by the Guardians of the Galaxy to defeat Ronan and save the universe in 2014. Afterwards, the Guardians placed the power stone under the protection of the Nova Corps on their planet Xander.

The purple gem does as it’s name suggests. It amplifies the wielder’s abilities or actions to that of a superior quality. No matter who the wielder is fighting against their strengths will be above the opponent’s.

Space Stone

The space stone is a blue stone housed inside a device called the Tesseract. Hydra used it in the 1940s during WWII. During the final fight between Captain America and Johann Schmidt, the Tesseract transported Schmidt to Vormir. Howard Stark found the Tesseract when looking for the Valkyrie wreckage, or more precisely Steve Rogers’s body, before 1970. He shared it with SHIELD who allowed it to be used for project Pegasus. Carol Danvers obtained her powers in 1989 when she was doused with Tesseract energy attempting to keep Yon-Rogg from getting it. In 1995, Carol became Captain Marvel and entrusted Nick Fury with the Tesseract. SHIELD kept the Tesseract until 2012 when they traded the Scepter for it. Thor then took it to Asgard where it was placed in Odin’s vault.

The blue gem allows for instantaneous teleportation through space. The wielder can travel across the universe or just twenty feet in a blink. This travel happens via portals instead of atoms disappearing and then reappearing.

Time Stone

The time stone is a green stone that has been on Earth for centuries. It was found by Agamotto, the first known magic user on earth, who then stored it in a magical amulet that became referred to as the “Eye of Agamotto.” Ever since Agamotto’s death it became the responsibility of the Sorcerer Supreme to protect the time stone as well as time itself. Doctor Stephen Strange used the Eye of Agamotto to save the universe and defeat Dormammu in early 2017. Dr. Strange was then appointed Sorcerer Supreme and tasked with protecting the time stone and the sacred timeline.

The green gem allows the wielder to manipulate and travel through time. Its user can control time from a single source to all of life. They can see into the past and the future. Also, the user can access a diagram of timelines.

Reality Stone

The reality stone is a red stone that was referred to as “the Aether” by the Dark Elves. When worshiped by the Dark Elves, the Aether was a free moving red liquid. The Aether inhabited Jane Foster in 2013 when she traveled to the Dark Dimension. After removing the Aether from Jane and stopping Malekith’s invasion of Greenwich, London, England, Earth Thor with the aid of the Warriors Three and Lady Sif gave the reality stone to the Collector on Knowhere.

The red gem grants its user the ability to manipulate any and all reality. Meaning the wielder can turn an object into whatever they wish, change the laws of nature, make any fantasy come true, and create their own version of existence. It also gives them access to the multiverse. This ability is possible because of their control over reality. If they can control it of course they have access to all forms of it.

Now if you are wondering how exactly Thanos was able to wield all six I’ll tell you. Firstly, he had a conduit made by the best welders in the universe. Welders who literally make sentient weapons from dying stars that can kill gods so that was a bit helpful. Also him being from a powerful race of conquerors all whose baseline is above superhuman didn’t hurt. Secondly, the stones are meant to be used together well more accurately they can be used circularly.

I don’t think any being, even those above god status, would be able to wield all six if the stones weren’t influenced by each other. If someone has mastery of one stone then in theory they can control all the stones. Which we see from Thanos; the stone he used the most was the power stone.

—-

If you are into Tony/Loki and time travel fix-it I suggest reading “If You Had This Time Again.”

Here’s a link:

Also there is a Darcy fic about the Infinity Stones and them being drawn to each other I read a couple years ago. I’d like to read it again but like an idiot I didn’t save it. If anyone knows what fic I’m talking about please comment below.

Thor's foot tapped against the deck of Asgard's starship, his boot matched the beat and tempo of the pair of Murphys who appeared to be auditioning…? The King, and possibly Captain, had been distracted by the bards who performed their ballad about tossing a coin and something called a witcher. Regardless of the meaning, it certainly sounded good. Several craftspeople had also been ensnared by the music, a few seemed to panic when Thor joined them, before the King gestured that he approved of the break. The Allfather noticed Nathaniel's unruly black mane centered above his awkwardly broad shoulders, seated in front of him. Thor quietly moved parallel with the judgmental deity. "Was this necessary?" Not only did Nathaniel know these two, but he knew of their talents. "You asked us to be thorough." Nate and Eva had taken Thor's direction seriously. "’Find me the finest crew in the realms. One to sail over the edge of the world with.’" Nathaniel quoted the Thunder God's request back at him, sans snark. Lochlan and Gael's rendition of the Netflix tune ended, the third song the pair had played for Nate's approval. A rather energetic smattering of applause erupted from the informal crowd and he took note of it. "Thank you, we'll be in touch." "What? No." A slightly flabbergasted Thor stopped his applause then looked from the bards to Nate, then back at the pair of minstrels. "You're welcome to join the crew - if you understand the danger, of course." Nathaniel aggressively scratched at his parchment with his quill, visibly annoyed that Thor had usurped his process. "Fine." "Is Eva on board?" Thor wondered aloud and tried not to revel in his destruction of Nathaniel's exercise. "Yes, she's inspecting the royal suites." Nathaniel paused and considered the fact that there was no innuendo in that statement. Huh. "Let's join her." Thor started off toward the stairs that led below decks, the familiar swoosh of Nate's cape followed close behind him.
