One of the things i hate in the show is its inconsistencies, it makes small moments have huge impact on characters while at the same time downplaying huge moments in the show .Here Nora kidnaps cisco and threatens to kill him if he doesn't comply by which means you may ask the same one that thawne used on cisco in another timeline before flash reversed time he had nightmares about it. The show shrugs it off and its never brought up its like they love tension only when its convenient for the plot and just forget about it when its no longer useful.

Fitz and Tony are my favourite characters in the MCU partly because of the resemblance of their characters, it's a shame they never met ,here are some similar things i found about them. They're both geniuses but their team rarely understood them except for a few members of their team like jemma and banner . They are willing to do anything to protect their loved ones When tony's house was being blown up he sent his armour to protect pepper similarly Fitz gave the oxygen tank to simmons knowing that he would likely not survive. They both wanted to protect the world and in trying to do so they created a murderous robot Ultron and Aida with the help of their friends banner and Holden Radcliffe.Something good eventually comes from their project like vision in tony's case and lmd coulson in Fitz's case. They struggle with some sort of mental problems in the case of Tony was ptsd from Alien invasion while fitz was his alter ego in the framework. They are both willing to sacrifice themselves like in avengers one tony taking the nuke to portal not knowing if he would survive and in endgame making the ultimate sacrifice to save the world while fitz in season 2 went into the monolith knowing that their is aslim chance that he would survive let alone save simmons , fitz going into a cryo chamber for 70 years so that he could help his team in the future and him putting himself in danger from the cree in season 7 so that he could bring back his team mates to the main timeline. They both had daughters whom they had to leave in order to help their team create an efficient way of time travelling .Lastly they are both stubborn and egotistical but also very determined to accomplish or solve problems this makes their team rely heavily on them to solve problems coming their way. Anything that i forgot to add or something that i have misrepresented please share.

After rewatching the final episode it has got me thinking how we were robbed of this duo. For a moment we saw how their dynamic would be like had he not have died and it was honest very refreshing . He would have honestly filled the gap that klaus had left in her and in which Alaric couldn't, nobody knew Klaus better than Elijah his failures,regrets and how much he loved her, she would have gotten to know Klaus through the lens of someone who always believed in him and not of what the world thought . Elijah would see the "klaus" in her the version that never got abused by Michael and turned into a monster by Ester and he would always be by her side.Throughout legacies hopes main struggle is about his father Elijah would have provided that and much more .He would never have stopped trying to help her and she would have never felt a lone even with both her parents gone.I get that he would have severely affected the events of Legacies but sure they did him dirty in Sn 5 making him be responsible for Hayleys death and finally killing him for no good reason.
