More Outline Blabbering

I've discovered how to write a thousand words without traditional writing anxiety. All I have to do is write the paper inside the outline. I can't explain it but it's the most effective way to write a paper for me.

Not only does it show a more visual pattern of how sentences branch off of each other, it is so easy to see if things do not follow in logical order rather than searching through several paragraphs.


Anyway,

I really enjoyed writing the analysis part of the research paper. I ended up with an even better scene to pair alongside the one with Tony and Rhodes; it's the one where Tony goes to talk to Ivan Vanko right after the Monaco fight. I'll put an excerpt here from my draft.



"With Tony remaining silent, Vanko continues with a key line, “ If you can make God bleed, the people will cease to believe in him. And there will be blood in the water. And the sharks will come. The truth, all I have to do is sit here and watch as the world will consume you.” This can be interpreted as a metaphor for stigma. If someone like Tony holds a godlike status, they have ultimate credibility and are at the forefront of the normal group as Goffman called it. However, if one “can make God bleed,” they ultimately are showing his weakness, or something discrediting. This can be said of both Tony’s cockiness in saying that the arc reactor technology would not be seen elsewhere for many years, but on a deeper level it explains Tony’s refusal to tell anyone about him dying. His ego will not allow him to be discredited in any way if he can avoid it. “The world” does not consume Tony nearly as much as he seems to destroy himself, as in one final line, Vanko says, “Hey, Tony. Before you go, palladium in the chest, painful way to die.”"
