>>82654682Civil yes, respectful no. Cap and Tony were BOTH out to dislike each other from the moment they set eyes on each other and before that too.
Cap spends most of the first avengers movie convinced that Tony is just an egotistical spoiled brat and refuses to believe any good of him until after the new york battle.
Tony is sarcastic but he never tried to be offensive(unless you actually thought the "capsicle" and "spry" comments weren't his standard banter) until Steve was first and Steve unloaded on him because clearly someone kind of annoying is nothing good whatsoever right? Past actions be damned.
But it's not Steve only that I'm concerned with, it's everyone.
Once again I'm not saying that Tony doesn't mess up and I'm not saying that he shouldn't be called out when he does but the response is
disproportionate and it never comes from a place where it's obvious that they're a team.
It's attacks on his character, "Tony why are you such a fuck up", "Tony why are you such an egotistical shit." etc.
Nobody considers for a second, hey maybe he has his reasons for acting the way he does, maybe there's legit reasons.
They forgive Wanda for her shit instantaneously and reassure her constantly in CW but then we get shit like this
>>82653024 for Tony.
They're all too happy taking Tony at face value despite KNOWING that he's more than what he appears and that he has his reasons for doing
things and his own limitations.
And it's unfair to Tony, both to his character(in universe) and to the idea that these people are the standard to which others should be held. You don't single out people you claim as your friends/team mate like that and see any situation as "us the heroes vs Tony the fuck up."
