Stark always had a control problem. When he wasn’t abusing it, he was losing it.

I’m an orphan raised by carnies fighting with a stick and a string from the Paleolithic era.
So when I say this looks “bad”? I promise you it feels worse.

“So you’re saying that the Hulk… the other guy… saved my life? That’s nice. It’s a nice sentiment. Save it for what?”
“I guess we’ll find out.”
there’s a grief that can’t be spoken. there’s a pain goes on and on. empty chairs at empty tables. now my friends are dead and gone.
The only thing I know is everything you love will die. The first time you meet someone special, you can count on them one day being dead and in the ground.
