Oh, Dude. I had seen that before, but man, it's still awesome. I think my favorite part is how Tony feels clumsy and safe next to Steve's grace and daring.
Seriously, they are Jean and Emma (i.e., constantly thinking the other one has it better) only they don't have Scott to fight over, so they fight over AMERICA. *nods sagely*
And, yeah, I see how Wanda's actions could come across as more fundamentally selfish than the others (even Emma, when she has her attack of crazy in AXM -- welll, I don't know if you've read it, so I'll hush). I still feel bad for her because she's such a wreck, but there is a certain spoiled-brat entitledness to the whole thing (hi, Wanda, a lot of people can't have kids --) And arguably the Avengers bring on the whole disaster by being so determined to shelter her (whereas the X-men know by now, if one of your own is a threat, you do what you have to do - witness both Scott and Logan in Endsong going "Oh great, we have to kill her AGAIN.").
