logan is sitting in on one of scott's trigonometry classes with like 10-15 kids.
kid : when are we ever going to use trigonometry in our life mr.summers
*logan lifts his hand*
scott : umm, yes logan
logan : you can adjust the angle at which the gun is tilted so that you can assassinate the target at the lower floor in the building next to you. *the kid looks horrified, others look at logan morbidly*
scott : thats... correct. why was that the first example to cross your mind?!
logan : you tell me
im a firm believer that logan is completely illiterate. like, he cant read at all, and cant write either. he doesnt have a phone for this reason; everyone thinks hes just being an Old Guy but he genuinely cannot get any of the information being conveyed to him on a phone. no one, not even the telepaths, realize this until hank hands logan a note one day and logan goes, "i cant read this."
and everyone's like, "why?" assuming the handwriting might just be hard to decipher or too small or smudged or something.
and logan says, "i cant read."
it takes three hours for him to convince everyone he's serious
logan secretly had the ability to control the movement of his hair, i.e. the can make all his hair stand up to make himself more threatening/bigger, but if you're not threatened by him he looks like a big, fluffy, black puff ball
i get the weirdest feeling that logan never felt like giving a shit about how he present but has to, to survive therefore to survive, he purposefully created a persona which wouldn't be challenged/ judged by most of society because of this i think he specifically chose to present himself exclusively as a "man" what he wears/does when nobody's around is a different theory all together
what are your thoughts??
(i'm reposting this from 'queer wolverine appreciators' community)
in a previous au of mine i had a little pondering over if other x men were teens instead of what happened to the og 5 in the comics.
pondering further, i imagine that all if not most of the ages of the x men are flipped. to elaborate, in this au old man cable who could be approx. 60 years maybe, would be a toddler / maybe 5 . taking the og 5 themselves, if in the comics they're currently in their late twenties, in this au they would be in their late 30's or early 40's
by this logic charles wouldn't have formed the x men and the brotherhood doesn't exist.
so in this au, the og 5 form the x men.
they meet as teens because of a string of math or academic contests along the school year. because the competitions happen all over the country , plenty of different school teams end up travelling together . they meet enough times to form a group and jokingly call themselves the x men 'cuz they all always solving for X (get it, they always meet for math olympiads and such )
scott - great at trigonometry, bobby at algebra, warren - co ordinate geometry, beast is the ever all-rounder and jean is a biology beast
time goes on , the x gene activates, they help each other with their powers and grow closer together as friends
since professor x isn't there to help scott and give him his ruby quartz glasses, in this au scott doesn't get anything like a visor until maybe his thirties. this happens as the gang do end up finding a solution for scott's uncontrolled optic blasts they don't have the finances for it, so when they're established in their careers with good money they make his glasses. Warren could give his money because his parents were always strict with whom he could spend it on.
the only way scott could control it was by....shutting his eyes. he's essentially blind
for adult life they do stay connected sometimes sharing apartments
jean becomes a biologist specializing , in human gene mutations, bobby becomes a CA, warren manages his family business, hank does a whole host of PhDs and is in the research field, he might later on join mutant related politics.
i headcanon scott to start a youtube channel for funsies where he sometimes post videos of him singing, after a while he keeps getting better at song writing and singing, and views keep pouring in. He starts earning money from it. he saves up for joining a pilot program. yada yada plot happens, he joins the military pilot program by scholarship even though he's blind cause he has excellent spatial awareness. he graduates but continues to sing to earn money as a side hustle during breaks. he gets famous as a singer too. his stage name is *drumrolls please* MR. BEAM *wink* *wink* *wink* *wink*
yada yada plot occurs, they open a school for mutants, and do x men missions.
oh, btw, scott is in a relationship with madeline pryor , they get married and have nathan in their mid thirties. he met her during his flight program in the same institute but she was in a different flight program. in this au, madeline and jean become friends, they were never clones, but they look very alike , its a running joke that their twins/clones in another universe.
to differentiate between them, in my au, jean & madeline both have telekinesis and telepathy, but jean has weak telekinesis and madeline has weak telepathy. together the call themselves the 'Phoenix'.
[ madeline is a crazy lady and scott loves it. he even wrote a song about her 'crazy maddie' :-) ]

i don't consider myself a writer or an artist. if any of you could be so kind as to add your inputs and give creative pieces for this muse, i would be grateful and overjoy.
logan is around 5 feet tall, yes?
assuming the shelves at the supermarket is over 6 feet tall, our little tough man can't reach the top shelves for his maple syrup.
he has obviously tried to use a plastic stool but it broke cause of his weight
so, what does he do?
if ororo is free he gets her to tag along, if not her.... maybe scott ...because he's reasonable and not gonna tease the shit out of logan like other's will cause they are waiting for the moment of weakness to appear, to strike, for all the teases and snark logan has blessed them over the years.
if those 2 are not present for whatever UN-meeting-or-peace-coordinating-mission reasons, ....and if he's feeling petty ..... for a certain blond telepath calling him mean mean untrue things ..... and maybe mind controlling him a few times....
next time logan is seen leaving a grocery store, he has all the top shelf items, looking fashionable in one of emma's corsets and earrings, in tight pair of pants, strutting along with the cart in her 12 inch stripper heels.... ;-)
( heee hee heee! )
if you have silly headcanons, reblog and comment!!
:-) :-)
17 maybe?
my first official intro to the x men were from the fox movies, though i mostly saw youtube clips. now after a few years and better understanding of the x men in general, i saw half of the first x men film.....huh? WHAT THE F*** ??!
some things are not making sense (hmmm)
the plots okay, no problem. why is sabretooth a large yellow kitty loudly roaring/meowing. i like it but where's his personality?
the fight scene at the train station.......seeing it for the first time, not bad. seeing with comic book knowledge,...my mouth's on the floor!! i don't have words for the x men but ..... damn that's the most goated version of toad that might exist
wish me all the best for the next half
jubilee can persuade logan to do nearly anything she wants
she even got him to wear something other than his usual checked shirts and jeans for something tasteful, atleast according to jubes.
AND got him to shave his side burns for a day
(though that happens only after a week of "please please puh-leeeeaassssseee miiiissssTTTUUUUHHH WOooLVIIIIEEE and a few half planned poorly executed black mail attempts)
*scott : you got him to SHAVE, to dEcENcY !!!!!!!!!!!
oh fiery beast i see your true form in this plain mortal scene
guuuyyyyys i got a headcanon!!!!!!!!! one of logan's first jobs as a youth was at a morgue basically cutting up and examining bodies, sorta preserving them for a while for their funerals, carving tombstones, the works.. i.e. learning to do everything you do at a morgue and a funeral home hence he learns how to professionally/ medically dissect bodies. very good for his murder business ..... good good. also, and most importantly, he had learned to do makeup.... on corpses for funerals. so naturally when he ever went to a party, he’s always decked out in elegant funeral clothes, resembling morticia addams, a bit macabre but captivating
