maybe logan gets along with kids cause they have the same point of view, its literally hard for them to look down at somebody
logan is a disney princess talking to animals in harmony with nature there's enough proof already
in the name of the lord i ask thee, which devil from the depths of hell put thou through such tests of thy will, my effulgent angel
i'm not talking to my self i'm just having long monologues about something someone did just a couple minutes back, and got inspired by it to have a bout of whimsical creative flamboyance, but i can't do it physically right now, i don't have the materials. hence i choose the vast canvas of my mind to illustrate concepts i came up with just to forget them by the next day and only remembering a tidbit of it: which i then proceed to write out in a post
i like this ,but i have a little change in this because i also like the silly vision of logan adapting to technology.
so maybe he was illiterate till the few months leading upto ww1 . some general or leader at the camp recognizes logan's potential even though he might he one of the delinquent soldiers expected to die first because they were illiterate/ kinda dumb (low economic class).
said leader, puts in the effort to teach logan even though logan has un-diagnosed learning disabilities. logan doesn't have much faith 'cuz he had tried before but failed miserably.
the leader somehow succeeds; kind of becomes a role model for logan , logan now has some hope that he can be MORE than what he was before. (from this point forward he does shit, becomes highly qualified soldier, does secret government work--- this is his 'good soldier' era). after ww1 he stays with the leader, leader takes him under his wing, logan ends up pursuing higher education (something useful to make weapons, field stuff maybe chemistry and maths ?)
ww2 comes by this fellow is a secret soldier doing what not. rest of the plot bullshit happens. mindwipes happen, he's with the x men and something like @sniktwolverine described above. this man now has to get his education all over again.
he tries going to school but hates, hates it, even though he freaking lives at one. ultimately all the x men are his teachers for some subject. he even learns some shit from the kids by asking questions.
hell this scene would be so funny/sweet animated
could somebody write a fic or make some art if they feel like it :-)
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
he has to censor himself now, he's not sure if he can do it right away so he TRIES to controls his frustrations...but one day---
logan : OH YOU MOLDY PIECE OF SPOILT CHOCOLATE FUDGE!!!, GET BACK HERE BEFORE I WHOOP YOUR BOOTY WITH MY LITTLE BOOTIES !!!!!
it's not even a curse word
i like the idea that jubilee was a handful to deal with, and i think i read somewhere that the only people had could handle her/ she would listen to are hank and logan, of which she listens to logan more.
so, little jubilee will be menace for scott to handle on his lonesome
scott : jubilee... for the last time its your turn to wash the dishes this week
jubilee : i don't wanna right now
scott : come on jubes, you can't put off your chores any longer
jubilee : you can't make me; like you could anyway *annoyed eye roll*
scott : if you don't get up right now... i'll call mr.wolvie
jubilee : ppfffffttt, *snort* the NHL has started, dummy. good luck trying to get him away from the tv.
scott : i mean it jubilee, i will do it.
jubilee : yeah right
scott : *with perfect calm, feigning defeat takes a few steps away, and takes a deep breath* MR.WOOOOLLLLVVVVIIIIIEEEEEE!!!!
jubilee : oh SHIT! *starts running towards the kitchen*
** in the background, the audience begins to hear logan's pained groan, his team is losing and his eardrums now hurt**
You can only reblog this today.
*it's jubilee's birthday* logan : well jubes i'll gift ya some of my assets jubilee : ew no , i already have my natural assets. logan : you got none, darling. 'sides there practical stuff, you know for the long term part. and i got plenty jubilee :i still don't need yours! logan : *realises what she is talking about* *facepalms* jubilee : what
in a good mood, nothing crashing or catching fire, he has nothing to do, he's restless. he CLEANS. 1st starts with cleaning the tops and shelves of his room, then wipes the little stuff , organizes this stuff/ clothes by season and utility, makes the bed, clears the beer bottles. you can't see a spec of dust where its not supposed to be.
2nd sort of tidies up the common area 3rd leaves people shocked, "when did you become a neat freak?"
Lots of people say Logan is a messy person. I have to disagree. (Not disrespecting your opinion of course!) I think, he is fairly tidy. He was in the military for years, where the rooms are regularly checked, the beds have to be made a specific way as well as how clothes are stored in the locker. Also of the glimpses we see in movies and comics and cartoons his room always seems tidy. Everything stored neatly and no laundry lying around. In the first movie where Rogue looks into his RV and notices the laundry hanging on a makeshift line, dirty dishes and boxes with stuff lying around, (he doesn't even have a mattress, he either sleeps on the floor or in cheap motels) i think that's because he was deeply depressed. He was going from place to place for 15 years at that time, with no memories of who he was or where he came from. He would drink his sorrows away at bars, taking on occasional jobs like bouncer or cage fighter. It depends on Logan's well being how he treats himself and his surroundings. Is he doing well he will take care of himself and be tidy. Is he not, he will neglect himself and his living space will be messy.
That being said, i can totally imagine him being the one to remind Wade to clean up after himself and have nothing lying around, that Althea could fall over. Often Logan comes home, Wade is still somewhere, and he will wash the scattered clothes in the sink, because he doesn't wanna bother with the washing machine and he knows how to wash by hand. He will do the dishes by hand also and sweep the apartment, because he hates the noise the vacuum makes. Wade calls him his "house-husband"
if he does stories i bet he does bedtime lullabies. not the little cutesy ones, like 'twinkle twinkle little star', but like bad ass ones he sorta heard growing up or something he made up
he doesn't know any lullabies as such, so as lullabies he sings old old songs which brought him comfort to the little kids, basically deep meaningful songs.
maybe one of the songs revolve around a child traveling the cold icy terrain of canada, walking through the woods all alone, always learning something about himself through the surrounding nature and wildlife?
all the kids love it and now pester him to sing a lullaby especially the tiny tots. :-)
maybe he secretly tucks them in at night ;-)
the image of Logan having semi-regular storytimes about his missions/adventures with little life lessons in them is all thats running thro my mind now
