Sherlock is like that fanfiction you really loved but it updated and started going off the rails and you’re like ‘but I liked where it was going before?’. Then they announced they’re doing an AU spinoff one-shot and you’re kinda excited but you also don’t entirely trust the author any more.

<b>Iron Man</b>: Ever had any epiphanies?
Nothing big giant or major, but I get epiphanies all the time in my writing because I’m a seat of the pants kinda author I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been going along and suddenly i’m like ‘OH so THAT’S why this thing happend’. Or ‘THAT’S why this character does THIS’. Or even, ‘okay so THAT’S what happens next.’
<b>Hawkeye</b>: Talk about a time you got a second chance.
I was retaking a class this last semester and somehow completly missed the deadline for a major essay, and didn’t realize until a week later. I figured it was worth a chance to ask my instructor, and they let me turn it in late. I got a B+ in that class in the end.
<b>Black Panther</b>: How do you feel about your country?
I think a lot of things could be better, but a lot of things could also be worse. I served in the military (Navy) as did my husband (Navy and Army), but I’m more likely to gripe about things.
<b>Daredevil:</b> What is something others see as a weakness, but you know to be a strength?
I don’t know. Kindness, I suppose.
<b>Jean Grey</b>: What is something about yourself you can’t control?
My depression. Well, the meds help a LOT, but it will always be a part of me and something I need to be aware of.
<b>Scarlet Witch</b>: What things have you broken?
I dropped and broke one of my mom’s favorite casserole dishes. I’ve no idea why that was the first thing to pop in my mind.
<b>Invisible Woman</b>: Talk about a process of finding your identity.
That’s still evolving. I just try to learn and absorb a much as I can.
<b>Black Bolt</b>: What don’t you ever do?
Um. I won’t ever go parachuting?

John one day just feeling so exhausted with everything, so sick of the drama and the pain and the lying and finally just breaking down and saying, “I’m so tired, Sherlock. I’m so tired of pretending I’m not in love with you.” That’s something I think about a lot.
by this point my entire stance on being in fanbases is that it feels like i’m trying to live peacefully in a secluded cottage and do my own thing while also witnessing the fall of the roman empire right next door
