Were you aware of how important to some people it was you being the only black significant character in this popular franchise [Harry Potter]? That’s something I started to appreciate only recently. Because it’s not something I had when I was growing up. I never watched TV or film or and thought there’s no one who looks like me, which is something that I’ve had a lot of people say and eventually you realise, oh that is important. But it’s taken me a long while… I think the reason for it though was because my dad’s an actor. I’d watch films and TV shows that he’d done, or on stage — obviously he’s a white man — but he’s my dad, so I’d never thought that, ‘there’s no one like me’ because who could be more like me than my dad! It’s a much more profound perspective. I’m fortunate, because that’s what we want. But we want everyone to have that. You don’t want anyone to feel like an outsider because they don’t see people who look like them. But I was fortunate that was never a problem for me. [x]
Rhodey is the only person Tony lets in to see him at his very worst, very lowest, as well as at his best.
Tony has known Rhodey since he was a teenager, going to MIT. Rhodey was the first friend he’d ever really had that wasn’t on the Stark payroll, that wasn’t friends with him out of obligation or greed.
Rhodey was there for him after his parent’s deaths, after Edwin Jarvis’s death.
He was there when Tony took control of SI a few months later.
Rhodey found him after months and months of hopeless searching. Rhodey is the one that continued to search when everyone else told him to give up, that Stark was dead. Rhodey’s the one that brought him home.
Rhodey doesn’t care if Tony calls him sourpatch or honeybear. He doesn’t care that he programmed himself as “The Starkster” in his phone with that annoying ringtone. He laughs at his dumb jokes, even at a Senate committee hearing.
Rhodey’s there for him after Obie’s betrayal. There for him when his drinking got out of control. There for him when he thought he was dying.
Rhodey’s always there for Tony, always has his back.
This job, we try to save as many people as we can. Sometimes that doesn’t mean everybody. But you don’t give up.

im still pissed off that birds get to spend their days flying about and cats get to sleep for 16 hours a day and im stuck dealing with capitalism and expectations
‘These young actors.. they are just a knockout, they’re all so good. To hear them bring these characters to life was just a revelation; they’re all so right, they just couldn’t be better.’ - Mark Hamill
I fell in love the way you fall asleep; Slowly, and then all at once.
