This or these examples of Surprisingly Realistic Outcome seem to violate at least one of these rules, which disqualifies them: No character reactions (characters get angry, don't forgive, don't change their personality instantly, etc.); Too fantastical (depends on the properties of magic, powers, sci-fi tech, monsters, etc.); Not surprising (a character was warned about the outcome, it's used to provide Karma or An Aesop, or it simply follows normal conventions for this genre or medium); Plot happens (the example only describes an event, but not why audiences would expect a different, unrealistic outcome); Not an outcome (a character just explains why something wouldn't work as expected, or something is just an innate aspect of the setting or character that has a logical reason for being present); More of a Deconstruction (the event has major, lasting effects on the plot, make something more realistic, but not completely realistic, or a parody/fanwork applies realistic consequences to the events of a different work); or fits better under a different trope. See the trope's definition for more details. If you believe a removal was a mistake, please bring it up in the cleanup thread

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: Happens throughout the series:
** In the aftermath of ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'', Tony Stark suffers from PTSD after nearly being killed by one of his friends and required multiple surgeries (including implanting an artificial sternum) to fully recover from his injuries. Seeing his dead parents suddenly alive again ends up triggering a panic attack.
** When trying to confirm his parents' identity, Tony doesn't trust a fingerprint scan as SHIELD had a record of them, meaning Hydra did too. When he asks what he wanted for his seventh birthday, Howard responds that he can't remember as it was ten years ago.
** Once they realize they actually died and were resurrected, the Starks spend some time dealing with nightmares and panic attacks reliving their murders.
** Though they are in perfect health, the Starks are warned that they're in perfect health for their age. Howard has to give up alcohol as his body can't take it any more.
** Vision also sees a therapist regularly, though in his case it's to understand how to be human and all the unusual ways they behave.
** When finally caught and tried, Natasha gets far less sympathy than any of the other members of "Team Captain America". Scott, Sam, and Bucky were all apologetic with the latter clearly not having been in his right mind while Steve was trying to protect a friend and Wanda wanted revenge on the man she held responsible for her family's deaths. Natasha shows only cold detachment and apathy towards the lives she destroyed.
** Bucky/James is the only member of "Team Captain America" to avoid prison time but instead is sentenced to nine years in a psychiatric facility. He's not held responsible for his actions as the Winter Soldier due to the extenuating circumstances of his torture and brainwashing, and it's made clear that he had very little idea of what was happening during the Civil War. That he's a mentally ill World War II veteran and former [=POW=] only garner him more sympathy.
** While the Starks know intellectually Bucky/James Barnes wasn't responsible for murdering them, they're still terrified of the man who beat them to death.
** Part of why Steve felt Wanda was relatively harmless despite being a former Hydra agent is because the vision she showed him simply reminded him of what he lost and made him feel as lonely as awakening from the ice had. He admits to himself that if he'd faced his worst fears like the others, he probably wouldn't have wanted Wanda as an Avenger.
** Having a few years advance notice of a pending invasion is not a lot of time for a planet that doesn't have a planetary defense system. Tony and the Accords Panel are scrambling to get such a defense system set up while also making sure it can't be used against Earth at a later point. Likewise, there's tremendous efforts to make sure communications and other systems don't fail during an invasion.
** Many "Enhanced" are wary of outing themselves to the worlds by signing the Sokovia Accords both because Steve Roger's actions ruined the reputation of Enhanced in general and because for decades SHIELD dealt with troublesome Enhanced by tossing them in [[TheAlcatraz The RAFT]] and throwing away the key.
** When evaluating potential New Avengers under the Accords, both Thor and T'Challa are noted as having potential conflicts of interest, Thor because he's the prince of a completely separate world and T'Challa because of Wakanda's extreme isolationist policies, meaning either or both could decide that not fighting a threat was in their homeland's best interests.
** While reviewing T'Challa's application to join New the Avengers, one of the points made in his favor is that T'Challa is the first non-American (besides the alien Thor and Loki) to be potentially be accepted since Wanda Maximoff. With the exception of Rhodey, the entire team is currently Caucasian and almost entirely American so rejecting him could send a bad message about their inclusiveness.
