I do not own Avengers 2: Age of Ultron.
I do need Cap to sometimes tell me to watch my language.
Morals and Standards
"Language!"
As soon as he said it, he knew he was in for it.
That they would never let him live it down.
That it would be stamped upon him forever.
And they would revisit it over and over and . . .
But, he mused in irritation. We're the good guys.
He spun on his heel, deflecting a barrage of bullets with his shield before lowering it to punch an attacking soldier.
What's wrong with a little moral decency? Upholding some standards?
He flung said shield at an approaching solider on a motorbike, effectively knocking the instantly unconscious man to the ground.
People, especially kids, look up to us. To see how to act. We're role models for crying out loud.
He sprinted, grabbing the fallen shield, and punching the unconscious guy once more just to make sure he stayed down for the count.
I mean, I know the world has changed. Progressed. Everybody's more, what do they call it, free to be themselves now . . .
He caught sight of Natasha Romanoff in her skintight Black Widow uniform turning her enemies' weaknesses against them.
. . . women are liberated . . .
He averted his eyes away from her perfectly formed posterior, pumping away as she raced around dispatching much bigger opponents like sacks of rotten potatoes.
. . . but there are still things called good manners . . .
She was lost from view as Hulk smashed through a tank to the terrified screaming of the puny non-advanced humans within.
. . . and we can still be civilized, can't we?
He paused in his train of thought to engage in brief brutal combat with a soldier who clearly did not realize that vibranium blows to the face caused serious cranial injuries.
And is it really so bad to consider the preferences of others once in a while?
Before concluding to his previous inner monologue.
We can fight perfectly well without having to lower ourselves with such unnecessary cursing.
As he arrived at the side of Thor, the God of Thunder.
Who seemed to be having a grand old time.
"Is no one going to comment that the Cap just said 'language'?" Stark admonished through his ear-com.
Sigh.
Hey, Avengers fans! Just having a little fun here with the Cap. Trying to show the humor in the fact that he prefers everybody to watch their language but then has absolutely no qualms about obliterating loads of bad guys.
