The reverence Luke has for his first lightsaber is so funny in retrospect, as if that wasn't his father's twenty-seventh lightsaber after breaking or losing all the ones before (we won't even get into the fact it's also the Youngling Slayer 9000), and kept it safe for over three years as his most sacred object.
Meanwhile, Anakin is just:

Let’s start a list of ways Gambit could potentially come back in X-Men ‘97…. I’ll kick us off:
1. Rogue quite literally drags his soul back into his body like in the comics
2. Cable time jumps again and again to try to save Genosha and ends up picking up a Gambit from a timeline where Rogue dies
…. Your turn. Add and share

It frustrates me how many people misunderstand my girl
Tumblr media
While I’ve definitely seen it more on TikTok and not so much Tumblr it is still quite prominent. All of the “Gambit girls 😜🤞” (Gambit is literally my favorite character but just those new fans who like him because of the crop top) are coming out and saying that Rogue is to be blamed for Gambits feelings being hurt but what they don’t realize is how much both of them were hurting. We see Gambits pretty clearly but guessss Rogues we’re a little harder to catch even though I think it’s pretty obvious
What I feel like a lot of people don’t realize is how much suffering she was going through because of her feelings for Gambit. He would tease her and flirt with her yet for her it was just a constant reminder that she can’t touch him. His whole existence is just a constant reminder of what she can’t do. She thinks that because she can’t touch him she could never make either of them fully happy in a relationship
Plus that makes perfect sense because the closest romantic relationship she has to her are Jean and Scott who constantly love and kiss each other. We see her multiple times in the original just stare at them as they touch, just another reminder of what she can’t have
On top of that her literal first experience with her powers was with a person she had feelings for. She has been obsessing over the ability to touch since she was thirteen years old. People get mad at her for not realizing that she valued her feelings over the ability to touch sooner but that is literally everything she can think about. To her a happy relationship ‘needs’ intimacy so she thought that the only way she could be in a happy relationship was with Erik
That’s why the dance is so important because she finally got that intimacy she has been looking for. She put off the fact that she didn’t have feelings for Erik and thought that she would be alright plus if it means helping Genosha
I mean she’s just weighing out feelings and intimacy and since she’s been idolizing the ability to touch since she has been thirteen years old that’s obviously what she’s going to choose. Then of course she was faced with grave disappointment when that thing she has been searching for her whole life wasn’t enough
I know a lot of the Gambit and Rogue shippers felt relief because she realized she valued feelings over touch but I just can’t get over the amount of disappointment she probably felt in that moment. She finally got what she had been searching for, what she thought would be enough for any relationship, but she still wasn’t happy because she didn’t have feelings for him
I would also like to mention her relationship with Erik before because that is probably the biggest comparison to her of all. She had both feelings (no matter how healthy or unhealthy they were) and intimacy with him so in her head if he didn’t have those struggles that would be the perfect relationship. It’s also likeee the only happy relationship she had had intimacy but that was also only because she thought that a relationship needed intimacy… if that makes sense
Anywaysss I know I kinda rambled off but it’s important to understand how much she has been idolizing the ability to touch someone and how complicated her feelings were after the dance because realized that intimacy is not even good if it’s with someone you don’t love

I noticed this too, but I’m holding onto the fact that the intro has been fluid. They’ve added and taken away scenes/intros depending on the episode.
They. Took. Gambit's. Title. Card. Out. Of. The. Intro...
Yeah... yeah, okay. Laugh it up, you cheeky little shits. Have your fun. Keep toying with us. But Gambit fans have built up a hell of a tolerance for angst over the years; we can take it. We know we'll be the ones laughing at the end of this.

Watching X-Men ‘97, I’m finding myself balanced on that same emotional high-wire of knowing what makes sense writing-wise in this IP (ie. Rogue has quite literally pulled Remy back from death before) and knowing that I’ve been hurt too many times by too many shows. There are so many ways Remy could come out alive and mostly intact on the other side of this. About as many ways as they could just fridge him to fuel Rogue’s solo emotional journey.
I want to see her fight for him. I want to see her bend time and space now to make sure he knows she loves him. I want to see those disaster nerds grow and mature and be happy. To live that deeper connection. I want an earned ending, dammit. Is that too much to ask?

So… Remy has always struck me as a VERY sexual character, and I think that’s one reason their relationship has always been so beautiful to me. Yes, he loves sex, but he loves Rogue more. So much more that it becomes an afterthought unless she’s ready for it. He meets her where she is and, especially on this front, seems more than happy to do so. That’s absolutely beautiful to me.

This man is literally just happy to be in the same room as her

He kept his footsteps and cane as quiet as he could manage as he circled around the cabin, dark eyes looking for signs that someone had found a way in and was either lurking in the shadows or would come back soon. There was nothing. As far as he could tell every window was intact. He met Bae at the back porch, and that door too appeared to be firmly shut, locked, and unbothered.
 His son took a closer look under the stairs before climbing them. “This is your last chance to be honest without a full audience,” he said as he came to a stop at the edge of the porch, forcing Rumplestiltskin to crane his head to look up at him. 
The curse stirred, fighting against the opening Bae had left him.
