girls and the inherent loneliness they have felt all their lives
me listening to songs
Ur totally good!!! I am too tbh,,,exept for tumblr 🤭
X-Men Evolution is cool and all (VERY cool I love evolution) but I want an x men au where they're ALL kids. Young (er) Charles Xavier (like in his 20s - early 30s cause I will never be able to imagine child Charles) trying to manage his own powers while also being essentially a single father to Uncontrollable Laser Beams Kid, Actual Just Feral Animal Kid, Kid Who Keeps Accidentally Telekinetically Trashing Her Room When She Gets Overwhelmed By Other Peoples Thoughts, Kid Who Keeps Falling Through The Floor When She's Frightened, Fuzzy Catholic Demon Kid, Explosions Kid, Kid With Multiple Personality Disorder As Their Entire Power, Other Explosions Kid, Kid Who Keeps Flooding The Fucking Mansion Because He Forgets How Ice Works Even Though Its His Entire Power, and Kid Who Keeps Accidentally Making It Rain In The House When She's Upset.
In this scenario all of them are 8th-10th grade I imagine. (Anyone I don't mention i either don't know or don't like 😭)
8th: Bobby, Jubilee, honestly probably just them
9th: Kurt, Kitty, Rogue, Tabitha
10th: Jean, Scott, maybe Logan
And special 11th grade for mostly just Logan and Storm because they will always feel older than everyone else. They're always the elders
In this situation Logan either wouldn't have ever been 'Weapon X' yet, or he was made into Weapon X as a child (at, like, Laura/X-23's age) and saved by Charles. He would be regular highschool age, so like 16/17. Not 200 something ❤️🩹
I imagine everyone would have less of a grasp on their powers than in Evolution. Including Charles. Everyone is just a little more clueless about mutants in general. Maybe make it modern too cause ❤️🩹 I can't write early 2000s for shit ❤️🩹
I love touch starved characters 💕💕
anyway a big trope in Mandalorian/Clone Wars fanfic is how touch starved you can get if you wear a full suit of armor + helmet all the time, even if you're getting fist bumps and shoulder knocks on a regular basis. which is to say, there's a lot of Batfamily members who might wear a full body suit and helmet (Jason) but still wear normal clothes when they're "off duty" -- and there's characters who absolutely don't. looking at YOU, Bruce Wayne, who wears head to toe armor with only the lower half of your face exposed, and when you take that suit off, you trade it for -- get this -- turtlenecks, full length slacks, and sunglasses. you think that man is getting any kind of skin-to-skin platonic contact? does anyone actually touch him outside of maybe the occasional romantic entanglement or torture session?
Hey do y’all remember when Boeing fucking killed a guy last year. And we all said “huh I guess Boeing fucking killed a guy” and then went on with our lives. And everybody knew that Boeing had fully just fucking executed a guy and nothing came of it. Like there was no police investigation no justice no nothing. Like literally EVERYBODY knew that Boeing had full on murdered a guy to silence him and there wasn’t any consequences for them. Kinda crazy.
"This story expanded on that premise, casting him as a mentor and father-figure to Kitty. He has a code he lives by; it's plain and it can be hard and it's very clear. You accept him, by extention you accept it as well. Kitty comes to understand him better and through him, herself." - Chris Claremont on the Kitty Pryde and Wolverine series
Kitty Pryde and Wolverine #4 (1985) by Chris Claremont and Al Milgrom
"likes mean nothing on tumblr" you're sending me a little heart. that's not nothing it's your heart. look here's one for you <3
love the batman ships where, batman autistic ass always never notices the other liking him one way or another like (like the other flirting with him, etc) . it just flys over his head i think we should do it more perchance.
I want to write a book called “your character dies in the woods” that details all the pitfalls and dangers of being out on the road & in the wild for people without outdoors/wilderness experience bc I cannot keep reading narratives brush over life threatening conditions like nothing is happening.
I just read a book by one of my favorite authors whose plots are essentially airtight, but the MC was walking on a country road on a cold winter night and she was knocked down and fell into a drainage ditch covered in ice, broke through and got covered in icy mud and water.
Then she had a “miserable” 3 more miles to walk to the inn.
Babes she would not MAKE it to that inn.
How can people claim Logan is straight, when these comics exist??
