And I actually like the snarky genius' on-screen characterization, but I don't have the massive love for him that almost everyone else seems to.
This. So much this. The story of my fannish life!
You know, granted, Maria is not a) one of the Avengers, b) previously in any of the movies, so it is kind of to be expected that she's going to get less fic time. But to get defriended for saying as much? *shakes head*
Frankly, I know I'm "weird" by fandom standards: I like the girls. I like the stoic girls. I like the stoic action girls. I like the stoic action girls paired up with the emotionally constipated hero guys.
...which technically means that Mal/River should probably be my Firefly pairing. Except it's not. Except in a completely platonic/mentor-y kind of way. Even weirder.
I sometimes think it would be nice to have a whole heap of other fans who thought this way (as in, the vast majority of fandom) but then I wonder what the hell I'd do... :)
