Steve is a man of many faces...

So I've written both Steve and Tony in a couple of different ways now, but the Steve in my new Big Bang seems vastly different from my previous Steves. It's a bit odd. He's just... bitter, I suppose. It's post Iron Man 3, which makes Tony more emotionally adjusted than Steve (really, Steve, when you have more issues than Tony, you should get help). Except Tony's also post-Pepper break up, which leaves him vulnerable. And Steve is just being a bit of a dick about the whole thing.
He's just... bitter. I suppose it's because that until Cap 2 comes out, he's kind of left in a limbo of really not fitting in just yet. And with six months between Avengers and Iron Man 3, I've let him sort of drift and become bitter about it all, rather than whatever Bucky-related fun times the movie has planned. In fact, he seems to be leaning towards the Cap I see in Ultimates fics, which considering how I tend to avoid Ultimates in general, is a bit odd.
I kind of like this Cap though. He doesn't take Tony's BS. He's constantly frustrated with Tony, and it's all the fun I have with Doctor/Master 'I hate you therefore I love you' relationship. Really, I have a type. I think I've said this in a chat before, but I'm not sure what I'll ever do if movie-verse Cap and Tony become as good of friends as they are in the comics, because I would have no plots left. All of my plots are just getting to be friends. I WILL HAVE NOTHING LEFT.
I suppose I could always just go back to Whovian fandom if that happens, but still. Where's the fun in that?
So yeah, I've got this odd Ultimates Cap who I have no idea what to do with. He's kind of entertaining though, especially when he starts getting mentally sassy and sarcastic with Tony.
The main thing is that Cap keeps calling him 'Stark' which is really annoying for me. For some reason, I can switch between Cap and Steve, but Tony is just Tony. I have to constantly fix me calling him Tony, and I've still probably missed half of them. Steve, just give in and call him Tony already. >.>
Also, I know I said I wasn't going to project on this fic, but I might be totally projecting. Especially with Tony twisting his ankle. *whistles innocently*
