actually, because i’ve gotten a lot of new mcu mutuals lately, and i need to redo my 616 tony stark care manual bc i wanna tweak it and make some aesthetic changes (because i’m just Like That), things you should probably know because i am actually 616/marvel prime/main continuity-based. i swear i’ll be serious this time. maybe.

the original flavor tony is not going to be the same tony you’re used to from the mcu - mcu tony is actually more marvel ultimates inspired, which is a whole kettle of fish unto itself and that i have a verse for, but we’ll get to that at a later date. instead, meet main continuity tony.

+ he started his path to iron man in a very similar way to mcu tony, in that he was injured by his own weapons (depending on where you pull from the sliding timescale, it’s everything from landmines to micromunitions) that damaged his heart and left him slowly dying. we all know this story, right? he built the first iron man to escape and the rest is history.

+ the difference is, main continuity was dependent upon the armor’s chestplate for a few years. the arc reactor ain’t really a thing in 616, instead we have the rt node. similar in function, only tony could use it to do unibeams without the suit. anyway, when tony came back, he took on iron man as an alternate identity, and told the world iron man was his bodyguard. no one knew for a few years there that tony stark - handsome, generous, kind-hearted benefactor of the avengers who opened his home to them - and the metal-clad adventurer known as iron man was the same person. it took a mishap with molecule man and a tiny red silk thong (no, i’m not kidding) for that little secret to come to light.

+ he was in his very early twenties when he became iron man - much younger than his mcu counterpart, and he’s very, very good at being iron man.

+ his relationship to most of the avengers - and heroes in general - is very different. his best friend in the entire world is steve rogers - he’s had a captain america memorabilia collection since before the avengers pulled steve out of the ice (which is another thing - the avengers thawed steve, and tony has always idolized him - there’s no resentment there - and steve was not a founding member, he came in after the avengers had already formed). his other best friend is rhodey, who was his employee-turned-military liason for stark unlimted (formerly known by many other names). his other other best friend is pepper potts - they’ve never actually been romantically involved. his other other other best friend was happy hogan, who died a few years back during the nightmare of civil war - which was much more us-based and much more horrific in tony’s universe. he’s carol danvers’ aa sponsor. he’s good friends with reed richards. he’s been friends with stephen strange for years. he and bucky barnes are fairly close and tony’s the one that got rid of bucky’s trigger words. he and natasha have dated...ish, and are close. he was never peter parker’s mentor, as his peter is a full grown adult, but peter did intern for him for a while. and was on an avengers team with him before civil war. he, steve, and thor are still the big three, but they have a friendship that’s been forged in the fires of really bad mistakes and they’ve come out the other side still close. he knows the guardians of the galaxy because he was a guardian for a while during his big vacation in space. he’s dated more avengers and x-men than you can shake a stick at. and jarvis for him is edwin jarvis, his living, breathing, now semi-retired butler who served the avengers for many years and is part of the avengers family.

+ he was director of shield for a short time after civil war and steve rogers’ assassination. he hated the job and he hated steve being dead and he hated what he forced himself to do so bad he literally erased that entire year out of his head. and to get rid of the database full of superhero secret identities stored in his brain but you can’t tell me he didn’t have a more recent backup without it.

+ his first ai was named homer. jarvis actually was pepper’s ai, for her rescue suit, and was never tony’s. friday is and has been his main ai for years, and she has a hologram form. she mostly runs the day to day stuff that doesn’t require tony to physically be there for the company. which, also, tony is still ceo, he hasn’t handed that over to anyone, and pulls double fulltime duty as both a working stiff and an avenger. his eyebags are designer.

+ he was secretary of defense for a year - he got himself elected when he found out someone in military research was reverse engineering and stealing things from the iron man.

+ he’s in his early 40s and looks younger: being an extremis enhancile for a while and then undergoing a full-body reboot does wonders for the skin, apparently.

+ he’s canonically bisexual.

+ is known for using himself as a lab rat for incorporating experimental technology into his biology. ask me about the suit he carried in his bones!

+ he’s 6′1 with blue eyes. that’s, uh. kind of important to know. he’s tall. he’s lanky. and if you’re not a metahuman he might just can kick your ass, because captain america trained him in hand to hand combat (of which he’s very proud of).

+ the ten rings are literally ten alien rings used by his main archvillain, the mandarin. they hurt. a lot. and he hates when he gets an up close and personal view of them smashing into his face.

+ he’s not as quippy as his mcu counterpart, and instead is more prone to bad puns and rambling awkwardly. canonically he has depression, anxiety, and ptsd, and struggles with them regularly. he’s also a recovering alcoholic.

+ take mcu tony’s tech. then put it on steroids. then make it the craziest scifi thing you can imagine. and you’ve got the barest hint of what this tony’s tech is like. seriously. ask me about the suit he literally carried inside of himself. or the time he could control machines with his brain. 616 is wild.

+ he’s been homeless. and i don’t mean rich people homeless. i mean living on the street, nearly froze to death riding out a blizzard in a doorway and almost lost fingers and toes to frostbite homeless. tony’s a Rich Boy but one who’s had a taste of how the other half lives on more than one occasion. he’s also worked a regular nine to five like everyone else and lived in what was...honestly...a really shitty apartment.

+ he’s adopted, and he has a(n adopted) brother named arno. his bio mom’s a former rockstar, and his bio dad a hydra double agent. you literally can’t make this shit up.

+ he’s incredibly self destructive and self sacrificing. if things look hopeless he’ll be the first to offer himself for the pyre. because he has absolutely horrid self esteem.

+ he’s a liar. he’s sneaky. he tends to make decisions for other people without consulting their feelings on the matter - partly because of a tony knows best attitude, but also because there are people in the world he’d do anything, and i mean anything, to keep safe, even if they hate him in the end. it’s kind of awe inspiring and terrifying if you manage to inspire that level of devotion in tony, because really. anything.

+ he has a playboy reputation, but he’s anything but. you either get casual sex out of him? or you’re married now, sorry, that’s just how it is. he settles and nests with a vengeance. he’s one of those people that would love to be happy and safe and loved and married and all that happy shit but doesn’t feel like he’s worthy of it. his issues with this have issues, to be honest.

+ if you call him in the middle of the night and need an evac and you’re on his People list he will come. twice in two days. dropping everything to go to the middle of indiana to do it. if you are sad and text him about it he will bring you food. if you don’t answer his texts he will find you and check in on you. if you feel out of place and adrift he will try to buy your baseball team and move them back to brooklyn to make you happy. if you die and he can’t cope with your death he will buy your first avengers indenticard for 2mil at an auction because he can’t stand the thought of anyone else having it. if you’re really special he’ll call you “beloved” and “captain handsome”. sometimes sweetheart. please note these things are all canon.

+ he dies a lot. it’s okay, he gets better.

+ his irrational fears are the dark and cockroaches. his actual fears are waking up drunk and the suit becoming a coffin.

anyway this is a Lot. and it’s not even really scratching the surface so. i’m gonna just drop this on the dash as is. and you know it helps for me to make dumb lists like this from time to time to refresh things. anyway, i know it’s a lot! i know it’s different! but my (broken) ims and disco (shellhead#8434) are always open for questions and plotting. and my inbox, too, ig. so you know. remember we’ve got a canon multiverse. it’s real easy for me to drop him in the mcu to make your day annoying.

i saw avengers endgame yesterday and i need to rant about things i didn’t like so here you go (spoilers after the read more)

- there was such a fuss about carol being in the movie, the trailers, infinity war ended with fury calling her AND THEN SHE HAD BARELY 30MIN OF SCREEN

- thor is pretty much traumatized but hey lets make him get slapped in the face during a panic attack and make it a funny scene, why not

- steve and nebula met their past selves and it had no consequences like it was nothing???

- the directors and writers completely ignored every and any logic about time travel

- for example: if thor goes with rocket back to asgard in the past, and he gets mjolnir back, than the thor that was originally from the past and in asgard DOESN’T HAVE A MJOLNIR

- THAT’S BASIC TIME TRAVEL RULES AND LOGIC

- is peter parker back to school after five years??? how?? is he still 16-17?? or is he in his early 20s??

- steve’s ending was so random i felt like it didn’t make any sense

- clint and natasha competing to see who would sacrifice themselves first?? ok then

- professor hulk was really weird

- again the way they made thor in this movie was pretty much disgusting and i’m not talking about his appearence, im talking how he became a depressed alcoholic and that was portrayed as funny

- when i saw people saying ‘’there’s gay representation in endgame’’ i thought about idk AN ACTUAL GAY KISS not a random guy with no name that appears for five seconds of movie (but i guess marvel is too weak for that)

- what the fuck happened to past gamora?? if she was from THE PAST

- wanda should have been the one to kill thanos, not tony

- WHAT HAPPENED TO WAKANDA DURING THOSE FIVE YEARS

- the scene where everyone literally comes back from the ashes: where did strange found all those sorcerers like him?

- i liked the pegasus but how did valkirye got him??

update: my mom (who watched the movie with me) made a very good point: what about all the little kids who have iron man/tony stark as their favorite superhero and are going to see him die? like, actually die, in details and even a funeral?

- pepper getting an armor suit bc apparently women can only be strong and independent if they fight physically and being the literal CEO of Stark Industries doesn’t count

#if i remember something else im gonna go put here later #avengers: endgame #marvel spoilers #endgame spoilers
