foxyfussings:kernezelda:thunderboltsortofapenny:#okay i know some people hate this scene because they think it’s whedon making fun of cap#and that might have been how he intended it#but the way evans and rdj played it is so perfect#because there’s steve’s sass coming back#’seriously?’#’seriously tony?’#’what exactly are you expecting from me?’#’it’s been like a week and a half since i got here from the 40s’#’what does it look like?’#’well it seems to run on some form of electricity’#unspoken ‘you moron’#and tony’s response is just like#’i don’t know what i was expecting’#’you got me there’#i don’t know#i just thought the two of them played it perfectly off each other [via invisiblespork]Yes, this. It wasn’t hateful or sniping at all. Steve was confronted with something that bore only the vaguest resemblance to electrical wiring as he knew it, so he called it, knowing he was not giving Tony any useful information. And Tony instantly recognized the fault in his own logic, did not snark Steve out as his custom in most situations, and instead guided Steve, who didn’t know what he was looking at, through a process that Steve had to trust was correct and would solve their problem. And it did, because they relied on each other and communicated clearly.Exactly! I mean, Steve is frustrated, sure, because he has NO FRAME OF REFERENCE for this kind of a thing yet. He’s only been in the modern world for like… a couple of weeks at this point? He has no fucking clue what he’s looking at - to be honest would YOU. You may be able to say something a bit more specific like “Its some kind of a intricate circuit bored system” but unless you’re an engineer or something…MEH?!?!Basically Steve said “its all Greek to me” but in his SASSYSteve kind of way. -- source link
