Yup. Shuri is a good child. She and Tony would get along quite well. Well. At least they would when she's not aggravating him with Peter and their memes.

I really liked this one, and I would like to have a sequel. The thing is that I don't know the Captain America from the comics, and maybe he is really good in the comics but in the movie (pardon if I offend someone) but he is shit. And you really did explain why. In the movie he is condescending, and they portray a smart man as a jester and a fool. I really appreciate how you took that view and wrote it in the story without fear of what people would say. Kudos to you Brave one.

An interesting take on Steve and I can see why Shuri would perceive him as much. Love the guy, but he's just as stubborn as Tony. You definitely nailed the prompt, a great read!

Dear Magi:

"A colonizer in the Forties"? Oh, come now. Cap's buckler is an ancient Wakandan relic, lost with its wielder in an ill-fated sortie against the men of Aksum, rediscovered by the Italians during their occupation of Ethiopia, and seized by the Allies after the Italian surrender in 1941. (At least, I don't see what else it could be. You don't suppose, surely, that a natural outcropping of stray vibranium just happened to form that shape, or that Howard Stark refashioned it that way as being the best way to study the strange mineral's properties?)

(Though, of course, they tell me now that Wakanda no longer borders Ethiopia; I gather that Ryan Coogler moved the country a couple thousand miles west without noticing it, African geography not being a strong suit for Americans. So I guess the details of the shield's history are up for grabs again - but I still maintain that it was no white man who made it a Frisbee, and certainly not as late as the Forties.)

As for the story itself… well, bear in mind that I haven't actually seen the movie yet. I was going to after the first trailer, but, after the next couple and the early reviews, I decided to just wait for the DVD. (To someone who grew up on classic fantasy of the early 20th Century, it is utterly depressing to see something like that first trailer and then find that the movie it advertises is in fact just another boilerplate Marvel film, rather than a Haggard-esque tale of exotic adventure and lost civilizations with superheroes thrown in.) So it may be, for all I know, that the Wakandans Disney gave us would indeed use such phrases as "the bad guy", "it's cute", and "he's been good at getting the job done". But I hope not, since even a Disnified lost civilization deserves more dignity than that.

Also, and along the same lines, I don't think Cap should be held responsible for the "Civil War" writers' stupidity. If we're going to claim the characters and tropes of this franchise as being our own rightful literary tools no less than Big Hollywood's - and why else, after all, are we here? - then it's disingenuous of us to act as though the latter's betrayals of their essence must stain our own understanding of them. (I know that this line of reasoning makes it difficult to write anything but AUs in this particular fandom; all the same, I don't think that makes it any less sound.)

Sincerely,
Qoheleth
