For those of you who know recessional 's MCU fic (and if you don't you should, this is one good place to start: [to see you there]), this characterization is straight-up stolen from her, as is most of the concept. Inspired by, idk, the world is terrible and I have been unable to make words lately so when this popped up I needed to write it.
