I Need To Rant About This Because Its So Fucking Sad, I Literally Cried Over This Last Night Lmao

i need to rant about this because it’s so fucking sad, i literally cried over this last night lmao

in x-men 97’ Rogue is asked to join Magneto’s side, to run Genova with him. She hesitates, but agrees. When she goes to break the news to Gambit, he’s shocked. He loves Rogue more than anything, his heart beats for her alone, which is why he doesn’t beg or cry, but instead calmly agrees to be her friend if he can’t be her lover. Even though it kills a part of him.

So Rogue leaves, to chase after the past, to chase after her dream of a lover she can touch. Gambit had tried to tell her love runs deeper than skin, but Rogue was convinced it wasn’t enough.

She floats down the steps, in a stunning red dress, and without gloves. WITHOUT GLOVES!!! Magneto meets her eyes and floats up to join her and the two dance in the air, their hands locked the entire time. Their dance is so tender, their touches slow and lingering and full of passion.

Below them, from the ground, Gambit watches. He watches the woman he loves share an act so intimate and full of love, an act he would’ve risked his life for if only Rogue had listened to him when he’d pleaded to hold her hand for even just a moment. He could’ve shouted at her, he could’ve let his pain bleed through into anger and no one around him would’ve blamed him. But he doesn’t. Because he loves her. And if Magneto is what she needs to be happy, than he will walk away.

He doesn’t see the doubt in Rogue’s eyes. He doesn’t see her kiss him, he doesn’t hear her telling Magneto that, even with their touch, their love can’t compare to what she has with Gambit. And when he dies only minutes later, sacrificing himself to assure the safety of not only Genova but the safety of Rogue, he dies with the memory of Rogue dancing with another man.

this is gut wrenching.

one of the funniest parts of the honda odyssey scene is right after logan pulls the car over because he's so obviously burning with rage over wade lying to him, but then wade says he made an "educated wish" and that bewilders logan so much he goes from being mad to just blinking and staring at him like this

and then wade goes on that long spiel about how he needs to save his family and at the end of all that logan just says "did you say you made an educated fucking wish?" his baffled ass was NOT listening 😭

What the fuck did Logan think of Wade outwardly? This motherfucker in red spandex carrying an arsenal of wicked looking weapons, weapons that he knows how to use (if that first round in the Void was any indication), just put a gun to his head. Oh, so he doesn't know bullets don't work on the Wolverine. He doesn't know Logan already tried.

And then Logan realizes Wade is a blabbermouth. Oh, that's annoying. I'm going to stab him in the balls.

Which... Logan? Seriously? Damn ok.

And then Logan realizes Wade regenerates. Oh. Oh, fuck.

And then ✨the Honda ✨ wherein as it turns out, Wade not only knows how to use his guns and his blades, but he also knows how to move his body in a fight. In a fight within a limited space. Logan explicitly directly deals damage against Wade again and again in that Honda, and Wade just rolls his neck and gestures for him to come back here, motherfucker. Do it again.

And then Logan realizes. Oh. Oh, let's fucking go.

What's Sicktember? /genq

UPDATEEE

I'm writing the stuff for my latest collection of oneshots (sicktember) if like anyone is reading and im sorry for the wait but ive got class and stuff so it might take a little while but IT IS IN THE WORKS :)))

wade's undiagnosed ADHD (giggling everytime Logan stabs him) is only ever matched by Logan's undiagnosed autism (stabbing Wade with his claws when he's overstimulated)
