"I'm working on the body first."

I have yet to see the new X-men movie, and it will likely be quite awhile before I do, but in the meantime, here is an adorable interview clip of the Magnetos and Xaviers young and old doing impressions of one another:



I have to say, Fassbender's McKellan is pretty spot on.

I just googled a cookie cutter shark and OMG they are frightening looking! Compared to them a regular shark looks downright friendly.

So...I'm going to assume you've thought about what daemon each avenger would have, right?

Erm...not all of them... Just Steve and Loki, really. I wrote a little fic for Steve and Issie for the [livejournal.com profile] consci_fan_mo last year, but never crossposted it. It is here (http://consci-fan-mo.livejournal.com/135708.html). And I think we decided on a caracal for Loki.

I'm always really bummed that females of the species aren't as brightly coloured, because giving Tony something like a peacock would be perfect, but peahens don't have tails. Hawkeye would need a bird of prey of some sort.

Damn you, now I'm going to have to think about this!

Is it strange that I think that Teddy Roosevelt Terrier actually kind of looks like Steve?

Hmmm...I can sort of see Tony having a more plain colored bird like a peahen or a female mandarin duck but then have her constantly rubbing her feathers on chalk or juices to color her feathers. You know...because it's Tony's daemon.

I imagine Natasha's being a large snake of some sort. Really beautiful, long, colorful scaly body that can probably crush you.

If it is, I am also strange, because I think so too. Something about the concerned and alert face.

Hee! Asking JARVIS to help her put her make-up on because she's going out and doesn't have opposable thumbs. I have an idea that his daemon might have changed form after he was kidnapped. He had a major change of heart there, I wonder if she might have reflected that. Gone in sort of a playboy daemon and come out more like a warrior daemon.

I think Fury would have a panther. And Coulson would have something mild-mannered but deadly. I don't know if Thor would have an Earth animal or a strange Asgardian beast. And Bruce's daemon would presumably Hulk out with him. Turn into a green bear or something, but be quite small and serious otherwise.

Yes! That's exactly it.

Can daemons change after it settles? It makes sense that it can after a traumatic event....this just gives me fic ideas for a Winter Soldier DaemonsAU. Dammit!

Coulson would have something mild-mannered but deadly.

I haven't watched any Agents of SHIELD but based on the films, I can see Coulson's being perhaps a Rottweiler or a German Shepard: loyal, docile when at rest but vicious when needed.

Mark Ruffalo already looks like a teddy bear of sorts so perhaps some sort of passive bear. Like a panda. They're herbivores. But it turns into a grizzly when he hulks out?

I didn't make it very far into Agents either, but a dog makes sense for Coulson. Especially since they're 'servant' daemons, and Coulson is servant of justice. And maybe, his daemon wanted to be a little like Cap's daemon, too.

Yes, I approve of this. Headcanon accepted.

Awwwww!! Warm fuzzies all around!

Okay, off to clean my apartment a bit. Always a pleasure geeking out with you!

Yes, indeed. Do not be surprised if I return with a list of daemons and names. You only have yourself to blame.

Erm, enjoy your cleaning, I guess? Or, I hope it doesn't suck too much!

I'll most happily take the credit!

I'll play some energetic music while I clean. It'll help.
