Usually, I am slow moving like pudding hopping from one fandom to the next. I started out in Stargate (and yahoo groups, dear, dear, yahoo groups) and basically stuck with it for a few years. Then Supernatural hooked me in (I don't even remember how - I remember avoiding it like the plague initially). That was a long (and still enduring considering I'm working on my ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
spn_j2_bigbang) relationship.
Like molasses, I moved on to Inception, because a movie hadn't hooked me like that for a long time and the stories coming out of the fandom were interesting. The playing field was endless and the bromance epic.
So, Avengers. What the hell? Why did it whup me upside the head and how did it happen so fast? Those of you sticking with me for the Inception and Supernatural, never fear, I'm as slow to let a fandom go as I am to move onto a new one and still have plenty of WIPS in both, but geez. I don't know, I can't explain it.
I ship everyone with everyone. I'll give anything a bash and usually I settle on just the one pairing. There's Steve/Tony of course, but then there's Darcy/Clint, Clint/Coulson, Steve/Bucky, Steve/Clint (I have not seen one story with this yet but hope springs eternal or I'll have to write it anyway) etc, etc. I like reading about them all being BFFs, or doomed romances, or domestic schmoop or, or, or...
Anything.
I rolled my eyes in Chris Evans' general direction at first. But then I saw Sunshine and I was like, okay, he took a risk and moved away from the general pretty boy role. Then I saw The Losers and was... maybe there might be a little bit of a crush there. After Captain America I was firmly in the he is adorable camp.
I was dubious about Thor, ended up watching it on DVD because I got it as a Xmas present and my goodness, it was the most RIDIC, glorious thing ever. Where had Darcy been all my life? Chris Hemsworth, I remember you being in Home and Away you giant goof, how did you grow up like that?
I already had affection for Iron Man (but was sorely disappointed by the second movie - what the hell happened there??).
The thing is, people in RL keeping saying Who? when I mention Jeremy Renner.
For your viewing pleasure, this is Jeremy Renner:
HUM-UN-A
I just... wasn't prepared for him. He's taking over the Bourne franchise and that would have given me the heebies (because I have enduring affection for all three movies and Matt Damon) but now I'm okay, even excited about it because it's him.
HOW EVEN REAL JEREMY RENNER??
He's in stuff I'm excited to see. He has ARMS that I'm excited to see. I gave the new Mission Impossible movie a chance just because of him and boy, was I pleasantly surprised! (I loved the first one, then... DISASTER I guess because hoo, boy were those some bad sequels).
I'm sorry though, I still can't sit through SWAT. Even Jeremy Renner doesn't have that power.
I thought that object by his hand was a gun for AGES, until I realized it was actually a wrench. It's a little... random considering behind him is a car that's UPSIDE down but then I thought, maybe he's so badass he flipped a car just with a wrench.
Anyway, the point of this is to say that I'm smitten, so apologies if that gets old because you're like, what the hell, I don't see it, not my cuppa. BUT I am glacial in my fandom movements so don't think I'm abandoning you if you didn't sign up for Avengers. I'm just playing with my new toy, will return you to your regularly scheduled programming soon, I promise.

FF through the Assembling the New Team sequence, the Getting to Know You sequences, the Trial By Fire sequences and skip ahead directly to the Guy Offers Umpty-Million $$$ To Break Him Outta Jail portion. It's not long after that JR comes back into play, and when he does, HOOBOY.

Man, that gives me squillions of fic ideas and would make the character MORE appealing but I'm pretty sure they've glossed over that.

I think it's on cable here but I think I only know that because I accidentally saw 12 seconds of it and was like, boy that guy looks exactly like JR... hahahaa!
I will have to see if it's on the On Demand list. :D Otherwise I will def. be in the market for enabling!

Captured & with his bow taken, he & (future wife) Mockingbird are being forced by sonic mind control to fight to the death. He's hidden a single trick arrowhead from his captors, & at zero hour he puts it in his mouth and activates it with his teeth. It's a sonic arrowhead & knocks out the mind control gizmo - and his hearing.
The Avengers movie seems to be following the Marvel Ultimates'Verse somewhat, & I have no idea if any of this happened over there. But if this is his first outing as an Avenger, if deafness comes it looks to be down the road a ways...?
