OC questionnaire
Thanks to @illarian-rambling here and here, @mk-writes-stuff here, @somethingclevermahogony here, @mysticstarlightduck here, and @elsie-writes here.
Ahh these built up again!!
I did another one here where I answer for Robbie, Gwen, Maddie, Noelle, Jedi, and Kelsey.
I'll do the same and answer one OC for each set.
#1- Carmen
Theoretically, since she'd never answer these willingly
What's your favorite legend and why?
“I suppose the one about the cloud riders from Atsila's culture. Maybe because of her, maybe because I like the idea of uncontrollable things being controlled.”
How do you celebrate your birthday?
“I don't. Bad memories. But Jedi makes sure to do something kind for me.”
What's something you'd regret if you died without doing?
“Not finishing what Atsila started. And also organizing the entire base. And the online data collection. And the lab. The alphabet. The local library --”
#2- George
What's the best thing you've ever eaten?
“Oh my powers DEFINITELY the mini cake thing from Ceteri. Cupcake? Yeah that. It was chocolate I think. Don't know about the frosting. I ate way too many last time Noelle brought them. She's warming up to me.”
What's the worst injury you've ever had?
“Physical or emotional? Haha sorry - I have injured myself quite a bit while running at top speeds. We speedsters have faster... Everything *wink* - but I mean I can heal faster which is very helpful. But even with a faster runtime, I make the same mistakes as everyone if I'm distracted. I've hit things, and at top speeds *cringe* yeah it's not fun. Ran into a concrete wall once. Concussion and a few broken bones. More than a few. Eh, I walked it off.”
Do you wish you looked different?
“Nah. Pretty happy with how I look! I guess I wouldn't mind Carla's eye color. That is not fair - neither of our parents even have amber eyes. What recessive gene did she pull out?”
#3- Akash
What is your favourite weather?
“When it's sunny, but not hot. Nice breeze. Not too cold or harsh. Just...total peace. Robbie likes it a little cloudy. I dunno, maybe that's cozy for him. But I happen to like the outside.”
Where would you want to take someone to hang out or on a date?
“For me, I wouldn't mind the classic dates. Movies, dinner. But Gwen... I'd do something special. A cultural gallery or a bookstore. Maybe a play. A Superman-esque flight around the city perhaps.”
What’s your least favourite food?
“Oh my gosh man - I hate asparagus. So many people like it, but I'm sorry. Can't stand the stuff.”
#4- Sam
What is the strangest thing you've ever stolen?
“In fourth grade, this girl Emma brought a laser pointer to school. Well, it was a pen with a built-in laser pointer. I thought it was cool. So I had to stay after school for the music play I was in, and as I was walking from the bathroom, I saw the pen on the floor. I picked it up. Emma was a little rude, so I kept it. She never asked around for it, so I felt okay after that! Plus, I couldn't pass up the opportunity for a pen laser pointer!”
What is your least favorite food?
“Mustard. Can't stand it. Wait, does that count as a food? Okay, nevermind. Uh.... Tomatoes. It's a texture thing.”
Who is the strongest person you know?
“Akash for sure. He's been through a lot of crappy things, and people treated him meanly for stupid reasons. But he's still so positive and helps a lot of people! Plus he's probably the funniest person I know besides my brother. But Akash is just as much a brother to me as Robbie.”
I don't think I've posted much about Sam - other than her excerpts. That was fun!
#5- Lexi
What's your worst fear?
“Oh. Okay. Wow. Um, well, there's my actual phobia of physical contact, haphephobia. Not sure if that counts or not. I guess other than that, it's losing all my friends. Most of my elementary school friends went to different middle schools, so I haven't seen them in person for a while. I don't want to lose anyone else. Ever. I'm not sure what I'd do.”
What's your love language?
“Well, it's not physical touch! *Laughs* I guess quality time. Actively doing things with someone else. That's the best I could ask for.”
When are you the happiest?
“When I'm with my friends! Just whenever we're doing whatever! As long as they're happy, and we're happy together.”
#6- Ash
Would you ever get high and if so, what is your drug of choice?
“First of all, I'm thirteen. Second of all, yeah probably - it'd be a fun risk to take. Not sure what drugs I'd take though. *Pauses* Hm. There are these devices I found that stimulate my telepathy. I wonder if those are anything like drugs. If they are, then whatever those are most similar to.”
Three things you would buy at the store to freak the cashier and the person behind you out
“Walmart has these cheeseburger onion rings I noticed last time I was with Mary. I may buy that just to make the cashier think I have terrible taste. In actuality, I'm just curious. Maybe an urn or something dark. Ooh. A pregnancy test. That would freak a lot of people out. *Pause* Was that too dark?”
What stupid opinion are you willing to die for?
“That American cheese tastes good. Liam told me it tasted like plastic. I'll admit, I need to try more cheeses. He was right about that. But plastic? Come on. He's just mad that Muenster isn't a Canadian invention.”
Why is writing Ash so HARD
Tagging @jezifster @sleepyowlwrites @dyrewrites @willtheweaver @theeccentricraven @writeouswriter @tabswrites + ANYONE
Your questions are:
How good are you with people?
How would you function in a group project?
What's your most valuable possession?
TSP intro
TSP tag list (ask to be +/-): @thepeculiarbird @illarian-rambling @televisionjester @finchwrites

5. day - favorite look(s)/costume(s);
Tumblr media
Jubilation Lee - I have zero relation to her, but I always liked her look, short hair and cool glasses, modern youthful style of dressing with streetwear elements. I especially love her yellow coat. That's why she's here. 
Kitty - As far as dressing goes, Kitty has been bland for a long time, or at least for me, but I really like this red coat and the overall style - I'm a pirate baby, you got a problem with that? I have a thing for stylish coats. 
Rogue - Her emo-goth style in Evolution is just perfect. That's all. I love the green.  
Magik - Or the stick-shaped, square-shaped Weirdness on her head? - No, okay, I'm kidding, but those weird double-horns fascinate me, but I think they add to her appearance. And they're the main reason they're on the list. Otherwise I like her outfit overall, she's a bit more modest than Emma and has a cool sword. 
And Emma Frost - Emma is of course famous for her dressing, but I have to say that I personally find pieces in her wardrobe that do not impress me at all. And there are not a few of them. For example, her sex outfit, in which she was once introduced to us. Yes, we all know what I'm talking about... Hell yes, it's sexy, but don't go out with it... On the contrary, I like her style of dressing, which they also used in "Wolverine and the X-men", in pants she looks more professional, but at the same time the top is sufficiently Forst "revealing", but at the same time decent. I usually enjoy her more covering outfits, but I have to give her shoes a break. But I like the ones she has on in the used picture, along with her dress code. I like it when she wears a jacket. I would also like to pick up the gold and white dress for the gala, she has a mikado, and her Phoenix-five outfit.
But this? Help.

The Daily Dad
Things you might want to know, for Jun 24, 2023:
Tumblr media
Love Island’s Jessie hospitalized after spiked drink — It was a shitty end to their trip, but I’m happy to see that Jessie and Farmer Will are still together and visiting the US. She had a rough run of things on Love Island Australia, and everyone seemed to dislike her on Love Island UK, but I’m fond of her… hope she’s okay.
Millions of perfectly fine HDDs are shredded each year because of 'zero risk' security policies. Spoiler alert: There's still a risk of stolen data from just a 3mm scrap — Yes, it is unfortunate that working hard drives full of recyclable parts are being destroyed and tossed in landfills. Yes, it would be great if we could find a better way. But the thrust of this article —don’t bother shredding drives because a super-sophisticated, targeted restoration of minute bits of data from shredded drives is possible— is just clickbait wankery.
Restaurant's mistreatment of workers included bringing in "priest" to hear their "workplace sins" — Wow.
Camera review site DPReview finds a buyer, avoids shutdown by Amazon — I’m not a Camera Guy, so I wasn’t particularly sad about the once-imminent demise of DPReview, but I’m glad the shutdown has been averted. The web has a nasty habit of erasing it’s own history, and there is a lot of info on that site that should be preserved.
200+ things that Fox News has labeled “woke”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Kickstarter >> THE MARVEL ART OF DAVID MACK AND ALEX MALEEV—2 DELUXE BOOKS by Clover Press Art — The list of 21st century comics artists I truly love is short: Frank Quitely, Pia Guerra, Sean Phillips, John Cassaday, Michael Gaydos, David Mack, and Alex Maleev. That’s about it.
Alleged Stalker Sets Twitch Streamer Justfoxxi's Car on Fire — Yikes.
Masnick's Impossibility Theorem: Content Moderation At Scale Is Impossible To Do Well — A bit of truth that should be borne in mind… the sheer size of the online population has now reached a point where it’s virtually impossible to ever do the right thing at scale.
Amazon named its “labyrinthine” Prime cancellation process after Homer’s Iliad — This is exactly the sort of thing that requires government-powered consumer protections… “dark pattern” UIs aren’t accidents, and should be punished aggressively.
Tumblr media
Taylor Sheridan Does Whatever He Wants: "I Will Tell My Stories My Way" — As much as I love Hell or High Water —just watched it again a few weeks ago, still amazing— Sheridan’s Yellowstone is a sloppy mess of a show that doesn’t give two fanciful fucks about character development or even common sense. But I firmly back his desire to make his show the way he wants it made.
Star Trek has never known exactly what Klingons look like, until now (maybe) — Klingons look like Worf. The end.
Evolution Keeps Making Crabs, And Nobody Knows Why
Jack Kirby’s family sets the record straight after “informercial” Stan Lee documentary — I’m sympathetic to complaints from the Kirby family… yes, Jack defined the look and storytelling conventions of modern comics, and anyone talking about Stan’s Marvel work should always talk about Kirby and Ditko as well. But say what you will about his hucksterism and fame-whoring, Stan Lee wrote some things in all those captions and thought balloons that mattered, that people still remember sixty years later.
After porn-y protest, Reddit ousted mods; replacing them isn’t simple — That site is a cesspit and always has been. If Kevin Rose hadn’t fucked up Digg, we wouldn’t even be talking about Reddit today.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tony Stark and Emma Frost are getting married in September — This… makes a weird sort of sense.
50 Years Ago, the Woman Who Would Usher in the True-Crime Boom Befriended Her Co-Worker. His Name Was Ted Bundy. — I’ve never read any of Anne Rule’s books, but her impact on the genre is unquestionable.
Psychologist warns of the major red flags if you enjoy true crime documentaries — Meanwhile… 🙄.
On Scanning QR Codes With Your iPhone — There’s a dedicated QR code scanner built in to iOS, and I had no idea.

BANSHEE???? THE COP?????
look, i went from the available choices, and my vote went to Beto anyway
Let's break these choices down, yeah?
Cyclops - tl;dr There are specific periods of time where Scott is "hot," and the vast majority of the time he isn't! Is he my blorbo? Yes. Do I run a sideblog where the header is his Foxy Grandpa Ass jutting out? Of course. Can I vote him in good conscience? I don't think so.
Colossus - the man spent how much time trying to fuck a fourteen year old? He heard Mutants were moving to a sex cult island and was baffled because his dead pal Jeff was a human. Pass.
Gambit - not even with Rogue's dick.
Wolverine - I only barely believe he can find the clit, and have ZERO confidence he could locate my prostate, and I'm unsure enough about his grooming habits that I wouldn't willingly put any part of myself in any part of him. Pass.
Iceman - Closeted Iceman? Maybe. But out Iceman is an overcompensating baby gay written almost exclusively by straight dudes, and I have a strict policy of never touching white gays who have "BBC" in their search history.
Warren Kenneth Worthington the Third - do you know what happens to Angel's love interests? I'd rather not be hatecrimed by Cameron Hodge for a few sweaty minutes of underwhelming halfhearted bottoming from a princess who provides the own stuffing for his pillows. Keep flying, birdboy.
Nightcrawler - I know, I know, the man is a sex icon, but I'm not getting involved in any of that family drama. If it's not his evil lesbian moms trying to kill me, it'd be his step-sisters trying to get back in his spandex. Not worth it, especially after all that shit in Way of X.
Havok - Matt Fraction's Clint Barton: The Mutant Flavor???? Listen, I adore a broken man who knows his place as much as the next nigga, don't get me wrong, but if I'm not picking Scott, I'm definitely not picking his Luigi.
I do appreciate his commitment to the bit, though.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Banshee - let's jump back to Cyclops for a minute. Without getting into shipping war bullshit, most of the times he's been "hot" are when he's playing off of Emma Frost, right? Emma's tertiary mutation is the ability to make everyone else more interesting just by association, because she's fucking great. I mean I just read an Iron Man book for her, for fuck's sake. Back in the 90's, when she was newly not-evil, she and Banshee were essentially the co-leads of Generation X, a book that, when it wasn't being the New New New Mutants, about two unreasonably sexy people who couldn't stand each other being unreasonably sexy at each other. Even putting that aside (and if you read a few issues, you'll get it), the man's spent decades dedicated to flying around with his tits out due to mysterious clothing damage, amd I appreciate that.
Sunspot - look, I fixated on him when I was nine, as the only character I could find who was like me at all, and that was ignoring all the gay subtext with his best friend even before it turned into outright queerbaiting. I grew up with him, and he's only gotten better since then. He's the only dude in my top 5 muties. He's flawless (give or take bad taste in men and a propensity for being whitewashed), he's perfect, he's hilarious, he's my vote AND yours, he's Sunspot.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Cannonball - in my seminal 2020 fic, "How Many Times Would You Say You've Been In Love," I summed Beto's Best Boy up thusly:
Sam laughed, a quiet, gentle, chuckle that crinkled the corners of his eyes, not that Roberto could bring himself to look at them. Instead his own eyes travelled everywhere else, from Sam's mess of a mop, to his strong jaw, to the gap in his front teeth, his okay-for-a-white-boy lips, the freckles that covered his nose, and ending up… 
Do I love Sam as a character? Absolutely, he's one of the best. But he's not hot, he's a lapse in taste. Love conquers all, they say. 😔
Bishop - as one of exactly two Black men the poll listed, I want to give Bishop his flowers, but I have never read a good Bishop story where he wasn't awful. No baby gays, but no self-hating Black genocidaires, either.

here are my thoughts on the x-men movies since ive finished most of them
x-men (2000): in my top 3. love mags and xavier in this one mostly because its ian mckellan & patrick stewart. my main gripes are with the merging of magnetos and mystiques brotherhoods & the exclusion of destiny from the brotherhood. magneto being willing to sacrifice his life & another mutants for his dream to be realized seems pretty accurate but i feel like they didnt make it clear enough that if the plan worked he would have died too...? HATE wolverine trying to put the moves on jean grey but thats true regardless of whether its a movie or a comic or a stageplay for all i care.
x2: the plot of this one kind of lost me mostly because i havent read god loves man kills yet so i didnt have any basis to understand wtf was going on except stryker was there and hes evil. love maggy in the prison being emo and shit although them deciding when he can or cant fly or use certain powers seems pretty arbitrary... ? i feel like deathstryke is treated pretty poorly by the plot here seeing as shes you know kind of an important character who they never introduce properly. nightcrawler looks better in this movie than he does in the later ones but still not good.
last stand: ive already talked about the choice of angel & worthington industries as the villains in this one so i won't go over it again. i think its DEEPLY funny that scott disappears and wolverine finds his glasses (which he cannot live without) just lying around and doesn't think "hey i wonder what happened to cyclops" until jean is quite literally unbuckling his belt halfway through trying seduce him. why does no one in these films seem to give a fuck about what happens to cyclops he dies in the first 10 minutes of the movie and its never addressed. also prof x dies in this one and i dont remember how he comes back to life so what was that. also they fuck up bobbys characterization SOOOO bad like i know they didnt know he was gay and he is kind of a player but in the comics kitty uses him as a rebound then breaks up with him and then his younger self (teleported to the future from the 60s) is like "why arent you gay. i'm gay" and bobby is like "no i'm also gay. i just act straight because of irish catholic guilt". so having him cheat on rogue with kitty and pressure rogue into getting the mutation blocker thing so they can have sex is retroactively an insane plotline. sorry im bobby drakes number one fan and this is so fake. also beast is so hot in this movie. what? who said that. also the phoenix plotline sucks and also magneto was right to try and explode the factory or whatever
origins wolverine: INCREDIBLY funny movie serious excellent. completely unintentional in how funny it is but so enjoyable to watch. why was cyclops there? why was emma frost there? what is going on in this movie? why is wolverine naked all the damn time? why does he know the blob? why can he BEAT the blob? why is the blob in this movie? seriously what the fuck is going on in this movie? x-men origins wolverine does not have answers to these questions. its really great to see the awful cgi claws though. i liked that gambit was in this movie.
first class: i have a lot of questions on this one. why is hank here. why is mystique acting like a child when she should be over 70 years old at the least. why would they get my hopes up by putting banshee and moira in the same movie but then not give them a relationship. why the fuck is scott summers' younger brother here. however it does well by making you root for magneto and then being like "and everybody then teamed up with magneto because hes awesome and abandoned xavier except for hank because theyre both centrist democrats" like you know what. so true. i like how mags just starts drama constantly for no reason like why was he fucking w mystique like that... good for him i guess but hes so gay in this movie its not even funny. okay it is funny but only a little.
the wolverine: i fell asleep during this one so i don't know but it seemed weird and racist in many ways and wolverine was a complete bitch during it for NO reason as always. also its so funny to see him fail on screen with basic japanese when in the comics he gets mind wiped and regains the ability to speak japanese before he regains english like that guy is an r/whiteguyswithasianwives prodigy. i liked deathstryke in this movie the actress was very cool. why didnt wolverine take the deal to save his friend and not be immortal anymore when he fucking hates being immortal half the time like bro come on... i hate him sorry
days of future past: okay at this point they should have known bobby drake was gay. so why all that with kitty. also why blame MYSTIQUE for the creation of the sentinels dawg she had nothing to do with that in the comics. the sentinels were not purple enough OR big enough btw. also, where is rachel summers. you cant do days of future past without rachel summers. either way this was a pretty good movie. quicksilver was excellent.
apocalypse: guys. why is scott summers wearing raybans. here are some other questions i hate about this movie: why is cyke's backstory never properly discussed. why do they give cyke angel or bobby's personality. why does nightcrawler look so bad. why would apocalpse choose angel over literally anyone else. why is it never addressed that nightcrawler is mystique's son. why is psylocke here if theyre not going to do anything with her. why is xavier such an annoying liberal. why would they introduce a new magneto daughter when he already has like 3 to pick from. why dont hank and mystique just sort their shit out. why does mystique go to bat so hard for maggy. why does jean already have telepathic abilities when she and scott meet thus making the way they originally get together (one of the main reasons i give a fuck about their relationship) impossible. who is the girl with the yellow hoop earrings they hang out with. dazzler??? why does jean have the phoenix spirit in her if she hasnt died yet. why isnt storm in her home on the mountain at this point. why is moira not scottish. why introduce her son if theyre not going to do the moira son plotline. last but not least, why would they include any character in this movie who wasnt quicksilver when hes obviously the best character by a wide margin and all scenes that dont include him are basically worthless. otherwise i quite enjoyed it. i liked angels haircut and im so glad they FINALLY made xavier bald.
i will add my reviews of new mutants, dark phoenix, deadpool, etc. once i watch them

love your blog and you have such good taste!! i'd love to hear more about your oc if you feel like it (this is user dasinclair on main)
[visibly shaking] thank you so much 😭😭
ALSO you have the best timing i'm making a canva visual about layla right now
lil peek timeee~
Tumblr media
extra deets under cut
general stuff:
name:
ilyana "layla" ignacio
occupation/s:
fashion designer and hero (active fashion designer and currently in hiatus in hero stuff, but she is open to temporarily going back to being active for emergencies)
age:
i haven't finalized yet (pending age is between 25-28)
power/s:
physical transformation (imagine emma frost's diamond form but wayyy amped up to being near indestructible. and similar to emma's diamond form, she also doesn't need to eat when she's transformed. bonus point is that layla also doesn't need air in her diamond form - so she can go to space and walk underwater)
enhanced strength
enhanced healing factor
crystal generation (but very limited tho, the most she can generate is a crystal sword twice the length of her arm)
now misc parts where i lowkey ramble hajshasajaha
she has crystal clear eyesight (hehe) - she enjoys accessorising so she keeps shades and some glasses around (it helps with the lowkey disguise too :3)
a collector of jackets! buys em, makes em, gifted to her - she loves every single one of em
she and green ghost got to meet through work <33 layla on the design team and alana with the group handling the photo shoot (i call them the gem gals - layla for diamonds and alana for green agate, the stone she consumed looked like it could be a smooth gemstone)
and lastly: [singing] bi, bi, bi, bi
Tumblr media Tumblr media
okay the real last part hahasahsha - her color scheme from the canva visual is reminiscent to mark's. my intention was what'll compliment her in her diamond form but i kinda dig it (in a way it could show how they could be related, i kinda want her to be a sort of aunt/older sister figure that helps him cope through the things that happened)

Batch #13! Gold Team Expansion pack, plus Emma Frost and Mohawk Storm. Really happy with how everyone turned out (all that previous practice, hahaha). And so happy to have most of these guys to play with :D One more batch to go!
I'm really, really, really happy with how Emma Frost turned out. All that practice painting white pieces paid off, heh. She looks awesome. I think the base is supposed to be diamond. Not really sure, but I think it came out ok.
So happy to have Mohawk Storm. I love this costume. I debated whether to leave her eyes completely white or not, since technically they only turn completely white when she's using her powers and she was depowered when she had this costume, but I think the white eyes look cooler. I can always change it later, heh.
Love how Colossus came out, although after painting his Phoenix Five version I was fairly confident he'd come out looking great. Really happy to have him :D
This Iceman (#2) was really easy to paint, haha. And he's the last one with transparent plastic.
Really love how Forge (left) and Bishop (right) came out. The M over Bishop's eye was a little tricky but I think it came out okay. I wish the mini made more of Forge's prosthesis, but it is what it is, I guess. Very happy to have these guys in my collection. Especially as they may be showing up in Irony #6... :D
Very happy to have Sebastian Shaw. He was pretty straightforward to paint and I'm happy with him.
Painting Archangel (Warren Worthington #3) honestly felt like I was painting Death (Warren Worthington #1) from the Apocalypse Expansion all over again. Wasn't nearly as exciting seeing him come to life as it was the others.

attractiveness:

I mean, let's be completely real here, Susan is a revelation in form and figure, Hank would have to be blind - or Sue would have to be invisible, wa-hey! - for him not to notice. Especially since Sue's costumes trend from skintight blue and black superhero wear to, well, significantly less, depending on how many windows she's feeling like wearing that day.
Except the red. The red doesn't work. Sorry, Sue.

personality:
grating / irritating / frustrating / boring / confusing at best / awkward / unreasonable / psychotic / disturbing / interesting / engaging / affectionate / aggressive / ambitious / anxious / artistic / bad tempered / bossy / charismatic / appealing / unappealing / creative / courageous / dependable / unreliable / unpredictable / predictable / devious / dim / extroverted / introverted / egotistical / gregarious / fabulous / impulsive / intelligent / sympathetic / talkative / up beat / peaceful / calming / badass / flexible.
Susan's probably the most stable and reliable of the Fantastic Four (Reed is Reed, Ben can have his off moods, and Johnny is Johnny), which is something that Hank immensely respects and, as he ages, covets. It doesn't hurt that she also manages to pull that off while also still being fun and charismatic and human - she isn't an ice queen like Emma Frost or to a lesser extent Medusa, she's still warm and likeable despite her power and prestige.

how likely they would have sex with them:

I mean, you read Hank's fantasy about her. He's thought about it. It was intense. There was a mess to clean up.

level of friendship:
never in a million years / worst of enemies / enemies / rivals / indifferent / neutral / acquaintance / friendly toward each other / casual friends / friends / good friends / best friends / fuck buddies / bosom buddies / practically the same person / would die for them / true friends / my only friend.
Hank's always skewed towards spending more time with Reed than any other member of the F4 for fairly obvious reasons, but I've always headcanoned that Hank regularly checked in on Artie and Leech, Franklin's friends, to make sure they're doing okay since he was one of the people who discovered them while he was on X-Factor. I like to think he and Sue have spent a good few afternoons talking and playing card games together, or taking the kids out for fun things.
Tumblr media
first impression of them:
i hate them so much / i don’t like them / i don’t trust them / they annoy me / they’re weird / I’m indifferent / meh / they seem alright / they’re growing on me / truce / I think I like them / I like them / I’m not sure if I trust them / I trust them / they’re cool / they’re genuine / I think we’re going to get along / I really like them / I think I’m in love / oh fuck they’re hot / I love them.
So, fun fact, this, I believe, is their first properly social meeting (not counting 60s stuff, since people are never properly social there, and iirc, the FF and the X-Men's first encounter was, of course, a mind controlled fight against one another).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
current impression of them:
i hate them so much / i don’t like them / i don’t trust them / they annoy me / they’re weird / I’m indifferent / meh / they seem alright / they’re growing on me / truce / I think I like them / I like them / I’m not sure if I trust them / I trust them / they’re cool / they’re genuine / I think we’re going to get along / I really like them / I think I’m in love / oh fuck they’re hot / I love them.
Hank lives a life that crosses the path of too many telepaths to think, oh fuck Sue Storm-Richards is hot, but he is, in fact, actually thinking it.

X-Manson Chapter 3 by Doctor Benway - Annotated by Tsar
Okay, things are getting pretty heavy again, champions. Right now, you're fixing to look down the business end of something that talks about murder, child abuse and other assorted horrible things. If you've the stomach for it, let's read on. Please comment and reblog if you fee i've missed anything.
Int: What did they say?
DR: They made it clear to me that if I told anyone about what had happened, that she would die, and that everyone I loved or cared about would die, too. Then I fell asleep and they sent me a dream that showed me what happened down in the pool.
*What happened in the pool, doug?
Int: What did happen?
DR: Don't know. Woke up screaming. Forgot the whole thing. Emma says that's how the brain heals itself. It didn't happen that way for her. She remembers everything.
Int: Did you have any further contact with the School or Xavier?
DR: No. I went to talk to Emma the next day, and she was still twenty years older than she'd been the day before. It scared me so much that, when she told me I couldn't talk, I knew I couldn't and I didn't.
Int: Do you think she manipulated you into not talking?
DR: No. She didn't have to. Xavier did that for us.
*The interviewer continues this attitude of distrust towards Emma Frost and Doug continues his weird reverential treatment of Emma.
[Shot of Emma Frost.]
EF: What happened? People died.
Int: David Lehnsherr?
EF: In front of his father. He wasn't the first. What they did to that baby-
*what baby?
She switches on the mute. She sees Frost's lips moving, the only sign that there's anything still alive behind that dead, lopsided face. She races for the toilet and barely makes it. Two bags of chips and a pound of chocolate chip cookies come back up, mostly into the bowl. When she was finishes, she slumps back onto the floor. She looks at the twin sticks of her legs, curled up in front. Her spandex cycling shorts hang loosely from her thighs. Perhaps she is thinking of what her analyst might say. She flushes it all away, then goes back to the kitchen cabinet. She looks at the TV over her shoulder, and sees that Emma Frost is no longer there. Instead, some sort of weedy-looking man is explaining something that must have been very important. She switches off the mute and starts into the shortbreads.
*trevor fitzroy?
[Shot of a weedy-looking man]
WLM: -and so we were completely unprepared for Shaw's charges.
*Sebastian and Shinobi
[Shot of Emma Frost]
EF: I should have known that he wouldn't leave it at that. I should have known that he was going to retaliate.
Int: How did you find out about the charges?
EF: When the detectives came and arrested me in the middle of morning assembly for statutory rape. They were careful to tell the entire school what they were arresting me for, as well.
[Shot of Douglas and Marie-Ange Ramsey]
DR: It was bullshit, pure bullshit. Shinobi was always saying crap like that.
*Shinobi Shaw, the legal son of Sebastian Shaw. Unclear if the hellfire club exists in this au. But, as a note, Shinobi and Emma did have a relationship in the Ultimate Marvel Universe.
Int: Do you think Xavier put him up to it?
DR: No idea. Shinobi was such a complete shit that he probably did it on his own.
Int: Why would Shinobi Shaw have done that on his own?
DR: There was a lot of pot use in the school, even before they legalized it. Emma and the staff knew it wasn't any more dangerous than cigarettes, so they tried to discourage all of us from using it but didn't come down on us hard if we did. I mean, I met Marie-Ange at a hash brownie party. We kind of shared an unofficial award for the longest fit of uncontrolled giggling.
MAR: You would have to remember that.
DR: Anyway, anything harder than pot or hash and you were out. Shinobi got caught with a salt shaker from the school cafeteria that was filled with cocaine, and so he did a deal with the local DA. Xavier might have gotten involved at that point, because the evidence was so flimsy, it shouldn't have stood up in court.
*Dumbass. It's curious that this deal came with the DA, because i think it's implied Xavier is working with the local cops of Salem Center.
Int: I understood that the prosecution presented a strong case.
MAR: In the court or in the newspapers? The conservative media went mad about the story. They had pictures of her in every newscast, dressed up for events in very glamorous outfits. We never saw her like that. She always dressed down on campus, wore baggy clothes, that sort of thing because she knew what could happen to teenaged girls. Even then, she still looked better than any of us. It made her life a misery, constantly being aware of how many men wanted to fuck her. She gave in to that misery at the wrong time.
*Nothing has changed with the conservative media.
DR: She never gave in to it with a student. Never, not that I ever knew of and certainly not with Shinobi.
MAR: Yet you all talked as if you did.
DR: Come on. We had 200 teenaged boys in the school, and one of the most beautiful women in the world looking after us. We used to fantasize all the time, but it would have been like sleeping with Supergirl or Princess Leia. No one would have ever dared do it. No, at some deeper level, I think that most of us loved her. Not sexually, more like something out of the middle ages.
*That's a very odd way to think of things.
MAR: I do believe that you are romanticizing this all too much. The point is, they had no difficulty in finding twelve boys and one girl who hated the world and who were more than happy to say that Emma had fucked them. The conservative media made a circus of it.
*Taking a stab in the dark, I can probably point to one boy besides Shinobi who might have made such a claim. Empath is never far from my mind. The girl however remains a mystery to me.
DR: While the left wing media kept silent. It was a circus. Half the kids got pulled out of school, two of the masters were arrested, and one of them ended up doing ten years in prison when they found an obscene parody of a Mickey Mouse comic that he'd drawn.
*What?
MAR: She would never have employed a master who would have hurt her students.
Int: And yet she could have made you believe this.
MAR: She could not have manipulated 400 students. There was very little privacy in the school. Someone would have talked. You are far too comfortable with the picture of her as the predator, the cold woman who eats her young as Xavier did his. She was not always so cold, not before she tried to kill herself.
*Calling the interviewer out on their shit.
[Shot of E Frost]
EF: I was not always what you see now. The one time that I did see myself on tape, I was horrified. I cannot bear to see what I have become.
Int: Do you recall what you were like before your injury?
EF: I do, and it is so strange to me. I can almost drown in the memories, they are so sweet and warm.
Int: Why did you try to kill yourself?
EF: Trying to keep the school open had been such an effort. I had expended almost all of my cash reserves, and the school had gone into bankruptcy. The strain killed my father, who had been suffering from a heart condition. Of the two physicians who had saved my mind as children, one died and the other had a stroke. I was arrested twice and held in a psi-blocked cell, and all I could read were the warders, whose minds were almost uniformly hideous. I was released on bail before the trial, on the understanding that I would be re-incarcerated before the hearings to prevent my influencing the jury. It was so ridiculous, because neither the judge nor the prosecution were shielded from Xavier. I was so alone, and I threw myself at John.
*bit skeptical of Emma throwing herself at John Kelly.
Int: John Kelly.
EF: Yes. Right after his divorce. The papers found out, and used it to tar him. We were together perhaps all of three weeks. It was hard for me because he was resistant and I could never quite see him clearly. In the end, he broke off the relationship quite abruptly, leaving me alone. I received a phone call the same afternoon saying that I should present myself to the prison the next day, as the jury selection was about to begin. I was wandering through the house and I saw this old hunting rifle above a door. It had been there for years as a decoration. It had a bullet in it, so I pointed it at my head and pulled the trigger with my toe. The powder was very old, so it didn't kill me.
[Shot of Marie-Ange and Douglas Ramsey]
MAR: I found Miss Frost in her chambers. I was one of the last students to leave the school, as my parents were still trying to raise the funds to return me to France. I heard the shot, and disregarded her orders that she should be left alone.
DR: There was a court order banning her from contact with minors. She was confined to her apartment and we'd see her watching us, sometimes. What was left of the choir would sing at night, under her window. We could see the strain was getting to her.
MAR: I could not take the chance that the sound was a car backfiring or something of that sort. I climbed in through the window from the roof and found her on the dining room floor, all covered in blood. I performed the first aid that I knew, and phoned for the ambulance.
DR: If Marie-Ange had waited a minute longer, Emma would have died.
MAR: Emma did die, or rather much of her did. The bullet destroyed several important parts of her brain. She lost all of her psi abilities, and her ability to feel.
*I think this is a reference to the Age of Apocalypse, wherein Emma received surgery to have part of her mind removed along with her psychic powers.
DR: Not like in tactile feeling, feeling as in personality. She became very cold, iced over.
MAR: And this got her off, on a technicality. She never had the chance to defend herself, and so her reputation remains blackened.
[Shot of Emma Frost]
EF: It freed me from the noise, and from my feelings. That alone would end my life as a teacher. I still consult for state and assist with the development of facilities in public schools for mutant education, but I could never be involved with students on a day to day basis again.
Int: Yet you remain friends with many of your former students.
EF: Oh yes. When I'm with them, I can feel the ghosts of feelings come back like the pain from phantom limbs, except that it's not phantom pain, it's phantom joy.
*I find myself relating to the concept of Phantom Joy.
[Shot of a portly man in a sweater, wearing a blazer but no tie. He is puffing on a pipe that has not been lit.]
[Caption: Nicholas Dio Cassius, Roy Cohn Professor of American History, University of Chicago]
*No idea about the name, but what the fuck is going on with the University of Chicago in this universe? They have a Trofim Lysenko of Genetics title and a Roy Cohn Professor of History title.
**Roy Cohn, as many of you well know, was an American prosecutor who is well known for being Joe McCarthy's chief counsel when McCarthy was carrying out his witch hunt for communists.
NDC: It was one of the most celebrated cases involving the Hinckley Law. Because her old personality was destroyed, she could no longer be accused of any crime. They made a deal that so long as she stayed away from adolescents, they would let her go. The death of her accuser from a heroin overdose before her trail no doubt helped. Her defence was very strong, perhaps stronger than she realized.
*Is that a reference to John Hinckley Jr? Did John Hinckley Jr get his mind destroyed by a psychic?
Int: Was there a political dimension to her break-up with the Senator?
NDC: Most certainly. Kelly was always flirting with disaster. The coalition that produced the Second Revolution that demolished the idea that corporate and property rights were superior to human rights, this coalition was always unstable. Throughout the Kennedy, Johnson, Kennedy, King, Bradley and Kennedy administrations, the only way that they could keep the revolution on track was when the Progressives, the Liberals, and the Democrats would all stand behind one presidential candidate. The Republicans were always the largest party of the four, and at any moment could have swept away the gains of a generation. Kelly had been instrumental in the foundation of the Social Democrats and might have even been their candidate in '84, but for the scandal. It also imperiled the passage of the Chavez amendment, and had that failed the United States might have remained unilingual and the southern borders might have ended up looking something like that wall that used to surround West Berlin.
*Damn, sure would be bad if something like that happened right? Something like a southern border wall would be pretty dystopian and fucked up, right?
Int: How did he react to her suicide?
NDC: No one is really sure. The authorized Kelly biography says that it was responsible for his abandoning his presidential bid in '84 and in not seeking the bids in '88 or '96, when he might have stood a chance, but no scholar takes that book seriously. From what I know of the work of other biographers, there is a case to be made that it may have contributed to brief descent into alcoholism. One is struck with the parallel with that incident with Kennedy, the one that was rescued from that car crash by the secretary who had gills.
[Shot of a short, pear-shaped man wearing a powdered wig that sits slightly askew upon his head. He is wearing wire-rimmed spectacles, and 18th century clothing. He looks not unlike popular images of Benjamin Franklin, but also seems to be under the influence of mind-altering substances.]
*That is the best goddamned description of Sebastian Shaw i've ever read.
[Caption: Sebastian Shaw, Private Investor, Phuket, Thailand]
Tumblr media
*of course shaw is one of those gross white men who fuck off to Thailand.
SS: Of course, they would make this out to be a tragic history. Poor Emma Frost. Poor, poor, crippled, Emma Frost. After what she did to my son, they should have hanged the bitch.
*I take it the Hellfire Club doesn't exist. At least, not one where Emma is a member. Though, I think if Shinobi's claims were valid, i don't think Shaw would have this reaction. I think he's only being this boisterous and angry because he knows it's bullshit, and there's something for him to gain from it. Frightening old conservatives like him are usually only of this mindset if this happens to a girl child.
Int: Did your son ever discuss the alleged incident with you?
SS: He most certainly did. I had sent him to the Academy, as a legacy. It was an excellent school when I attended. They brought up young men to be the leaders of tomorrow. The lash was not spared, no, not once.
*thoughts had by Dennis Prager.
Int: I thought that that would have been illegal.
SS: Oh, no, no, not at all. Very character building. And even if it had been illegal for the common folk, such rules would not have applied within the confines of the academy grounds. It was a school for the building of elites.
Int: So your son's letters must have come as quite a shock.
SS: Oh, yes. Not only did that witch take over the school herself, she desecrated the quads by bringing in both female teachers and students. How could men learn to become men in presence of all that disgusting femininity?
*he seems awfully disgusted by femininity, is there something you'd like to share with the class, Sebastian?
[Text of a letter superimposed on the screen, read by a narrator with an incongruously English accent]
Narr: On Walpurgisnacht, Miss Emma led a black mass in the quadrangle. We had no choice but to participate, or our families would be killed. We were led down into the cellars and the old gymnasium, where we were forced to don black hooded robes and bow down before an altar with an inverted cross on it. Miss Emma stood on the altar in a skin-tight white leather outfit, with her most trusted students at her side. Gradually, they unrobed her, revealing her full roseate-nippled breasts and her broad muscular stomach. As the crowd chanted, they stripped her of her remaining undergarments and set about licking her with their tongues. I was tied to a school bedframe with hempen ropes. Once she had been groomed by her minions, she approached me with the lighted end of a Cuban cigar….
*Good god, lot to cover here. The description of Emma feels very in line with her White Queen outfit from the comics, but the circumstances surrounding it feel like a combination of things. For one, the dream-like atmosphere and the impossible scenario feel like something from the McMartin Preschool trials. Where cops coerced children into making up these impossible claims of satanic rituals perpetrated by their teachers and parents. Now, the thing with the cigar reminds me of Clinton-Lewinsky scandal.
[Shot of S Shaw]
Int: Didn't you find this a bit difficult to believe?
SS: Not at all. It is exactly what I would have expected of a woman of that sort.
Dangerous, conservative moron.
Int: Was his statement to the authorities of this nature?
SS: It contained passages that were far more disturbing than this.
*making his story wild and strange, "Too strange to be fake."
Int: Why do you think that they believed him?
SS: Because they were true!
Int: But the parts about the children?
SS: Just look at that man Xavier. What would make you think she was any different?
Int: Why did you release these letters to the newspapers?
SS: It was necessary, to show that my son was not what the liberal media were making him out to be.
Int: What was that?
SS: A drug-addled fantasist. They had senators and eggheads of all descriptions besmirching my son's character. I had to fight back to preserve the good name of my family.
*ah, an anti-intellectual, just like a real-life conservative shitheel.
Int: Why did you not remove him from the school after you received the first letter?
SS: It was a most stressful time, and I believe that I made a noble, yet erroneous decision. I and the other members of the Republican Central Committee were involved in plotting election strategies for the '88 elections, and all of my resources were committed to this enterprise. Had I been for one moment able to step away from our deliberations, perhaps my son would have been spared the worst of it.
*Sebastian Shaw would have gotten Reagan elected in a heartbeat.
Int: It was that important?
SS: My god, sir, yes. What this country needed then and still needs now is a return to the government of our forefathers. They were men of universal knowledge, experts in every field, not like the pointy-headed liberal specialists of today. They knew the world, and everything worth knowing. We don't need a single one of the amendments passed to our hallowed constitution, especially not those that destroyed the hallowed right of all men to own unlimited property. With that right, every man can aspire to being one of the Gods themselves!
Int: This sounds similar to the arguments expressed by the mad philosopher Scalia.
SS: If there were any justice in this land, Mr. Scalia would be on the Supreme Court, not locked away in an asylum.
*goddamn it.
Int: But this is Thailand.
SS: But in spirit, I remain at home in what was once the greatest country in the world.
You're a fucking idiot, Shaw.

My reactions while reading New Mutants #26 (1985)
Emma Frost absolutely wrecking Empath is a peak moment. "Manuel Alfonso Rodrigo de la Rocha" Emma Frost was so pissed off she used his whole ass name cause he was playing around and fucking shit up. Then he got cocky and got his ass handed to him, as one should.
At least Xavier realizes and admits he fucked and abused his position of power with Gabrielle.
"A telepath can play god, you've no idea how tempting that is. I can change thoughts, twist memories, destroy a personality--erase it utterly--and recreate it any way I choose." - Charles Xavier, New Mutants #26 (1985) (this quote goes hard and should be referenced more if it isn't referenced enough already)
Moira and Rahne's relationship is tugging my heartstrings.
Also all these psi-words, we've got
Mindspeak, Psiprobe (Psi Probe), Psi-Talents, Psiwall (Psi-wall), Psilink (okay like half of these words need a hyphen between them- Psi-Link looks so much more pleasing to my eyes)
Skipping ahead to New Mutants #28
Love how everyone except Xavier (the damn telepath) is getting bad vibes from Jack Wayne, like yeah the racist douche who called Dani "Hiawatha" might be bad, and then Rahne is literally like "Mummy, he smells evil" to Moira about Jack Wayne. And the fact that everyone is like "this guy who the Professor's only known for like a day is totally his pal, friend, buddy, pal, chump."
Magneto's getting his heart broken in the Bermuda Triangle, as one does.
Oh my- lmao Douglas Ramsey saved the day by quoting a Star Trek episode, if that isn't the sweetest (and nerdy-ist) thing ever! He's adorable.
"Y'know, there's this classic Star Trek episode, where the captain's been kidnapped and his crew are trying to rescue him, only their weapons have no effect, even at full power. Thing is, the phasers worked all along, it's just that the villains, who were telepaths, wouldn't let the crew see that." - Doug Ramsey, New Mutants (1983) #28
And like sureeee he could had shortened it down and just said the wall is fake / another illusion but cmon this quote rocks.
The issue ends on such a hopeful note that I truly want to believe in Charles' promises and words but they sound almost cruel now knowing how he failed so hard at just being there for David and then later on further mistreatment.

Author's note
I borrowed some plot elements from the movie Rise of the Guardians, but Jack is not completely based on the character from that movie. I threw in some of my own ideas as well. This is not a Once Upon a Time and Rise of the Guardians crossover.
Jack is immortal, she has a dark blue hooded sweatshirt with frost on it, she is fun-loving, and she is a winter spirit, but that is where the similarities between her and the character from Rise of the Guardians end. She has a brother instead of a sister, she can't fly, she doesn't have a wooden staff, she is brought back to life by the Greek gods rather than the Man in the Moon, and she does not require belief in order to be seen. Everyone can see her.
Jacqueline Frost and her younger brother, Matthew, were born to Oliver and Elizabeth Frost and lived in a village in the Enchanted Forest. They were ordinary people and lived ordinary lives.
Jack insisted on being called Jack. She hated being called Jacqueline.
When Jack was 15 and Matthew was 10, he wanted to go ice skating, and she went with him because she didn't think that was safe for him to go alone. They didn't know how thin the ice was until it started to crack.
"It's okay, Matthew." Jack said. "Don't look down. Just look at me."
Jack had fair skin and blue eyes. Her curly whitish-blonde hair was parted in the middle and reached her chest. She was 5 foot 2. She had a slim build. She was wearing brown elbow-length wool gloves, a white long-sleeved blouse with a smocked elastic waistline and a v-shaped neckline with a double layered ruffle trim, a brown floor-length skirt, and a brown hooded cloak that was made of wool and reached a few inches above her knees. The hood was down.
Jack was kind, caring, friendly, and compassionate. She would be willing to make sacrifices for those she cared about. She had a soft spot for children and liked to have snowball fights with them. She always won snowball fights. No one ever beat her. She was gentle and generous, but she also had a mischievous side. She frequently played tricks on people. Her tricks were harmless. She enjoyed telling jokes and making people laugh. She was fun-loving and sometimes acted like a child trapped in the body of a teenager.
Jack slowly reached down and removed the second of two ice skates, leaving her barefoot on the surface of the frozen pond.
Matthew stood in his ice skates, rooted to the spot. A spider's web of cracks emanated from where he stood.
"Jack, I'm scared," Matthew whimpered. The ice below him splintered some more. He wobbled as it started to separate.
Matthew had fair skin, brown eyes, and short, straight brown hair. He was wearing brown elbow-length wool gloves, a white linen shirt with long sleeves and a collar with long pointy edges tucked into brown pants, a brown wool vest with three buttons, a black leather belt with a silver rectangular buckle, and a brown hooded cloak that was made of wool and reached a few inches above his knees. The hood was down.
Matthew looked like Oliver. Jack looked like Elizabeth.
"I know, I know, but you're going to be all right. You're not going to fall in. We're going to have a little fun instead." Jack said.
"No, we're not!" Matthew yelled.
"Would I trick you?" Jack asked.
Matthew was fighting back tears. "Yes! You love to play tricks!"
"I won't play tricks on you this time, I promise. You're going to be fine. You have to trust me." Jack said.
There was a brief pause, then Matthew smiled through his fear.
"Do you want to play a game?" Jack asked playfully. “We're going to play Hopscotch, like we do every day!”
Matthew looked more reassured.
"It's as easy as...One...Whoa." Jack showed Matthew the first leap, making silly faces for him, almost losing her balance but managing to catch herself. He laughed.
"Two..." Jack jumped.
"Three!" Jack turned to Matthew with her arms stretched horizontally to the sides.
"All right..." Jack reached down to pick up a long stick that was on the ice. She extended it towards Matthew. "Now it's your turn."
Matthew looked down. He was trying to gather his courage.
Jack started counting to three, never breaking her gaze with Matthew. "One..."
Matthew hopped, wobbling, but catching his balance.
"That's it!" Jack yelled.
Jack continued counting. "Two..."
Matthew continued hopping. The stick Jack was holding was just beyond his reach.
Jack finished counting. "Three."
Matthew grabbed the stick, and Jack pulled him off the ice and onto the grassy hill. She looked up to see that he was safe, smiled, and then plunged into the dark, cold water.
"Jack!" Matthew yelled.
Jack had saved her brother at the cost of her own life. The Greek gods, seeing her selfless act of heroism and sacrifice, revived her and transformed her into a winter spirit. When she rose up from the frozen pond, she discovered that she was immortal and had stopped aging, had the power to control snow, ice, and frost, and that everyone she had ever known was dead. Grief-stricken by the loss of her parents and brother, she left the village she once called home. She became a nomad and wondered around the Enchanted Forest, never staying in one place for very long.
Because Jack was a winter spirit, she was technically both alive and dead. Her body worked like a human's body, except her reproductive organs and the section of her brain that was in charge of controlling her body temperature. Her reproductive organs shut down after she transformed into a winter spirit, and therefore, she was incapable of having children. She was not affected by changes in temperature. She did not sweat, nor did she shiver. She could be outside when it was extremely hot without suffering from heat exhaustion and could be outside in the freezing cold without getting frostbite. The weather outside had no effect on her whatsoever.
When Jack first encountered Rumpelstiltskin, she became wary of him and refused to make any deals with him. She had heard that making deals with the Dark One came with a price, and she wasn't willing to pay it.
Jack became good friends with Snow White, Prince Charming, Red Riding Hood, and Red Riding Hood's grandmother, Widow Lucas, who insisted that she call her Granny.
Jack frequently played tricks on the Evil Queen, which annoyed her. The Evil Queen's guards attempted to capture Jack on numerous occasions, but she always managed to outsmart them and evade capture.
Jack had been captured by one of Regina's guards.
"I finally caught you." He gloated.
"Don't be so sure." Jack told him.
Jack was wearing a brown leather vest with four buttons, a dark blue long-sleeved blouse with a smocked elastic waistline and a v-shaped neckline with a double layered ruffle trim, and brown pants tucked into brown knee-length leather boots. The vest was unbuttoned. Her curly whitish-blonde hair was down.
Jack took a deep breath and then exhaled. Ice came out of her mouth, breaking the ropes that were binding her hands in half. Once she was free from the ropes, she shot ice out of her hands and froze the guard's feet to the ground. The ice wouldn't hold him for long, but it would give her enough time to run away from him.
Prince Charming was riding through the forest on a horse. He came upon a glass coffin. Snow White was surrounded by the seven dwarves.
Charming jumped down from his horse and approached the group.
"You're too late," Doc said sadly.
Charming looked at the glass coffin that was beside Doc. His breath hitched, and his mouth went dry as he rushed forward with a look of disbelief on his face. "No." His eyes were wide with fear as he stared down at his true love. "No!" He yelled as he looked at her expressionless face. His eyes filled up with tears.
"Open it." Charming demanded.
The dwarves looked at Charming with pity in their eyes and didn't move.
Grumpy had a solemn look on his face. "I'm sorry. She's gone."
Charming turned to the dwarves. "At least let me say goodbye."
The dwarves removed the coffin's lid.
A strong gust of wind came when Charming kissed Snow, blowing the dwarves back a few feet.
The dwarves stared at each other in wonder.
Snow's eyes opened, and a loud gasp escaped her as she sat up.
Snow looked at Charming with a loving smile. Her chest heaved as she drew air in. "You…You found me."
"Did you ever doubt I would?" Charming asked, giving Snow a crooked grin as he brushed some hair behind her ear.
"Truthfully? The glass coffin gave me pause." Snow said, cupping Charming's cheek.
"Well, you never have to worry. I will always find you." Charming said.
"Do you promise?" Snow asked.
"I do." Charming said.
It was Snow and Charming's wedding day.
"And do you, Snow White, promise to take this man to be your husband, and love him for all eternity?" The bishop asked.
"I do.” Snow said.
"I now pronounce you husband and wife.” The bishop said.
Jack was sitting in the front row. She was wearing dark blue high-heeled pumps and a long-sleeved dark blue dress with a square neckline and a floor-length skirt that flared at the hips with a small train. The train had a snowflake pattern on it. Her curly whitish-blonde hair was down.
The audience cheered as the newlyweds kissed.
Thunder boomed. Lightning flashed through the stain glass windows. The doors at the far end of the ballroom flew open. The cheering stopped.
"Sorry I'm late." Regina walked into the ballroom. Three of Charming's guards rushed towards her. She waved her hands at them, throwing them up in the air and right through the stained-glass windows.
"It's the queen! Run!" Doc yelled.
Snow drew Charming's sword and pointed it at Regina. "She's not a queen anymore. She's nothing more than an evil witch!"
Before Snow could take another step towards Regina, Charming blocked her. "No, no, no. Don't stoop to her level. There's no need. She's powerless now."
Charming took his sword out of Snow's hand and turned to face Regina, who was smiling malevolently.
"I will not let you ruin this wedding. You're wasting your time. You've already lost." Charming said.
Regina spoke in a deceptively sweet tone. "I'm not here to ruin anything. On the contrary, dear, I've come to give you a gift."
"We want nothing from you." Snow said.
"But you shall have it. My gift to you is this happy, happy day. Enjoy it, because tomorrow is the beginning of the end." Regina said.
More guards rushed towards Regina. She held her ground as they surrounded her, swords drawn.
"For tomorrow, my real work begins. You've made your vows. Now I make mine." Regina looked directly at Snow and Charming. "I shall destroy your happiness if it is the last thing I do."
Regina started to walk away.
"Hey!" Charming yelled, throwing his sword at Regina. Just when the sword was about to hit her, a puff of smoke enveloped her, and she disappeared. The sword slammed into the floor, lodging itself in the wood.
While Jack was visiting Red and Granny's cottage in the woods, she discovered that they were werewolves.
Due to her age, Granny's werewolf curse had faded, and she no longer had to shapeshift during the full moon. However, she retained some wolf-like characteristics, such as a keen sense of smell.
"What is it, Red?" Jack asked, glancing at her friend, who was looking around anxiously.
Jack was wearing a dark blue long-sleeved blouse with a smocked elastic waistline and a v-shaped neckline with a double layered ruffle trim, a brown floor-length skirt, and brown knee-length boots. Her curly whitish-blonde hair was down.
Red frowned. "Something's not right. The air feels wrong, and it's too quiet."
Granny sniffed the air. "I can smell magic."
Jack, Red, and Granny turned around and saw a cloud of purple smoke coming towards them.
"What the hell is that?" Jack asked.
"I don't know." Granny sounded scared.
The smoke engulfed Jack, Red, and Granny.
Storybrooke, Maine
2011
It turned out that the cloud of purple smoke was a curse cast by the Evil Queen. Regina's curse had erased everyone's memories, and they were living false lives.
Snow White was known as Mary Margaret Blanchard, a teacher at Storybrooke Elementary School.
Jack Frost was known as Jacqueline Blanchard, the adoptive daughter of Mary Margaret Blanchard.
This was the story Mary Margaret and Jack were led to believe: Jack was left on the side of the road but didn't get to stay in a foster care home. For years, no one ever found her. Mary Margaret found her sleeping in the woods when she was 14. Mary Margaret took guardianship of Jack, and they had been with each other ever since. The story was untrue, but they didn't know that.
Jack believed that she was an ordinary 15 year old girl and not an immortal being who looked 15 but was actually over 200 years old.
Jack attended Storybrooke Secondary School and was in the tenth grade.
Jack had been stripped of her powers.
On Saturday morning, Mary Margaret was in her kitchen, making breakfast.
Jack walked into the kitchen and smiled at Mary Margaret. "Good morning."
Jack was wearing an unbuttoned dark blue denim jacket, a black t-shirt, dark blue denim jeans, and black ankle-length boots. Her curly whitish-blonde hair was tied up in a high ponytail.
Mary Margaret smiled back. "Good morning."
Mary Margaret put two plates of bacon and scrambled eggs on the table, then she poured milk into two glasses.
Mary Margaret and Jack sat down at the table and started eating.
"Are you nervous about tonight?" Mary Margaret asked.
Tonight, Jack was going on a date for the first time ever. A guy in her science class had asked her to see a movie with him, and she had said yes.
Mary Margaret also had a date tonight. She was going to have dinner with Dr. Whale at Granny's Bed & Breakfast.
"A little bit." Jack said.
Mary Margaret and Jack finished eating and put their dishes away.
Mary Margaret was on her date with Dr. Whale.
"So, tell me more about this volunteer outreach program the hospital is doing." Mary Margaret told Dr. Whale.
Dr. Whale wasn't paying any attention to Mary Margaret. His focus was on the scantily clad waitress, Ruby Lucas, who was clearing a table behind them.
Mary Margaret noticed that Dr. Whale wasn't paying any attention to her. She turned her head to see him looking at Ruby's butt.
Ruby finished clearing the table and picked up a tray. She walked towards Dr. Whale and Mary Margaret.
Mary Margaret caught Ruby's attention. "Ruby?"
Ruby turned around while holding the tray in the air with one hand.
"Yes, Mary Margaret?" Ruby asked.
Mary Margaret spoke sadly. "Check, please."
After her date, Jack stormed into Mary Margaret's apartment, slamming the door behind her.
"I'm guessing your date didn't go well." Mary Margaret said.
"No, it certainly didn't. I showed up at the theatre and saw him kissing another girl. The only reason he asked me to go on a date with him was to make her jealous." Jack said.
"My date didn't go well either. Dr. Whale was ogling Ruby the whole time and wasn't paying any attention to what I was saying." Mary Margaret said.
"Bastard," Jack muttered.
On Tuesday morning, Jack woke up in her room in Mary Margaret's apartment, gasping.
Light blue paint covered the walls, a darker blue stripe running around the perimeter of the room. The bed was made of a simple wrought iron with a white comforter. A whitewash armoire stood to the left of the window, a similarly-styled desk to the right.
Jack slowly sat up in her bed, looking around her room. She'd just had another strange dream about having ice powers.
Mary Margaret had left earlier that morning to go to a staff meeting, so she hadn't heard Jack gasp.
Jack got out of bed, got dressed, brushed her hair, and walked into the kitchen.
Jack ate a bagel with cream cheese for breakfast, grabbed her black messenger bag from behind the door and slung the strap over her shoulder, and walked to school.
Storybrooke Secondary School was within walking distance of Mary Margaret's apartment.
After school, Jack walked into Granny's Bed & Breakfast. She waved at Granny and Ruby, who were behind the counter, and found a booth to sit in.
Ruby smiled, walking up to Jack. "Hi, Jack. What can I get you?"
"I'll have a hot chocolate with cinnamon, please." Jack said.
Jack was wearing an unzipped black leather jacket, a dark blue t-shirt, black denim jeans, and black ankle-length leather boots. Her curly whitish-blonde hair was down.
"Coming right up." Ruby said, writing in her notepad and then walking into the kitchen.
"Here's your hot chocolate." Ruby said, setting a mug of hot chocolate with cinnamon in front of Jack.
Jack smiled. "Thanks, Ruby."
Ruby walked over to the counter to serve some other customers.
Henry Mills, the adoptive son of Regina Mills, took a seat across from Jack.
"Jack, come with me. There's someone I want you to meet." Henry stood up, and Jack cautiously followed his lead. Having never spoken to him much before, this was an unexpected turn of events.
Jack followed Henry out of the diner and to the park. He led her to a bench with a blonde woman sitting on it. Jack recognized her as the woman who had come into town a few days ago.
Henry smiled, sitting down on the bench beside Emma. "Jack, this is my real mom, Emma Swan. Mom, this is Jacqueline Blanchard. She prefers to be called Jack. She's going to help you believe."
"Believe what?" Jack frowned, then she looked at Emma. "It's nice to meet you, but I have no idea what I'm doing here. The kid said to follow him, and for some reason, I did."
Emma laughed. "How do you think I ended up here? I live in Boston."
Henry took a book out of his bag and opened it. "Okay, Jack, here's your story. You're not really Jack Blanchard. You're Jack Frost, an immortal being with ice powers."
Jack's eyes widened, and she was too shocked to speak, because what Henry was saying brought back the memories of what had happened in her dreams.
Henry looked up at Jack once he finished reading her story from the book, right up until the moment the purple cloud engulfed her, Red, and Granny. "You know I'm telling the truth, don't you? You've been having dreams about this."
Jack nodded, speechless.
"I…I have to go." Jack ran home before Henry or Emma could stop her.
A few days passed, during which Jack kept to herself as much as possible, then Emma showed up at Granny's Bed & Breakfast while she was eating lunch.
"Henry's in a coma." Emma informed Jack.
Emma and Jack ran out of the diner and headed to the hospital.
Jack had grown close to Henry and considered him a friend.
Regina was standing next to Henry's bed.
Dr. Whale read Henry's chart and let out a sad sigh. "I'm afraid there's nothing I can do."
The heart monitor indicated that Henry's heart had stopped beating.
Crying, Emma leaned down, whispered “goodbye”, and kissed Henry's forehead.
A circle of distorted light spread from Henry, getting bigger. As it passed through Jack, she regained all her memories from the Enchanted Forest. Before she could blink, the light was gone, spreading through the town to return everyone's memories.
2012
Jack dropped out of school and got her G.E.D. Since she was no longer cursed, she had no reason to stay in school. She never liked going to school. It bored her.
Jack got her powers back.
Mary Margaret legally adopted Jack, but Jack decided to keep the last name Frost rather than changing her last name to Blanchard. Mary Margaret respected her decision.
Even though Jack and Mary Margaret were pretty close in age, Mary Margaret still considered herself to be Jack's parent. However, she didn't treat Jack like a child. She treated Jack like an adult and let her make her own decisions.
David moved in with Mary Margaret and Jack and became Jack's adoptive father.
On November 10th, Mary Margaret handed Jack a box wrapped in white wrapping paper. "Happy birthday."
Jack opened the box. There was a dark blue hooded sweatshirt inside of it.
Jack smiled at Mary Margaret. "Thank you."
The second Jack touched the sweatshirt and took it out of the box, frost collected around the ring of the collar.
Jack put the sweatshirt on. It was very comfortable. She was going to wear it a lot.
"You're welcome." Mary Margaret said.
David handed Jack a box wrapped in dark blue wrapping paper. "Happy birthday."
Jack opened the box. There was a silver necklace in the shape of a snowflake inside of it.
Jack smiled at David. "Thank you."
"You're welcome." David said.
Jack and Henry were playing in the snow on a December afternoon.
Jack was wearing her dark blue hooded sweatshirt with frost collecting around the ring of the collar, dark blue denim jeans, and brown knee-length boots. Her curly whitish-blonde hair was down.
Henry had a sneaky grin on his face.
"Gotcha!" Henry yelled, hitting Jack in the face with a snowball.
"Oh, it is on!" Jack yelled. She reached down and grabbed a handful of snow from off the ground. With her palm open, she used her magic to form the perfect snowball. She then puckered her lips and blew onto it with her icy breath, turning it a light shade of blue. It went flying through the air and hit Henry in the back of the head, knocking him face first into the ground.
Henry burst into laughter, then a snowball fight began.
"You are so getting it, Frostbite!" Henry yelled, tossing snowballs at Jack.
In the end, Jack emerged victorious.
"You should have known better than to start a snowball fight with a winter spirit." Jack said.
During the missing year, Jack met her true love, Alexander Van Helsing, the only child of Abraham Van Helsing, the most legendary vampire hunter in the Enchanted Forest. He hadn't been affected by Regina's curse. Instead of being sent to Storybrooke, he remained in the Enchanted Forest. Like her, he appeared to be 15 years old but was actually over 200 years old. He was a vampire. He was immortal, could not age, and was sterile and could not have biological children. On his 15th birthday, the infamous vampire Count Vladimir Dracula came after his family with the intent of getting revenge on Abraham for killing his beloved fiancée, Mina Murray, who was a vampire. Dracula forced Abraham to watch him drain his wife dry and turned his son into the thing he hated most — a vampire. Abraham killed Dracula by stabbing him in the heart with a wooden stake and then tried to kill Alexander, but Alexander survived and ended up draining his father dry because he was a newly turned vampire and didn't know how to control his bloodlust. After the death of his parents, he obtained a blue and silver daylight ring, a piece of jewelry with a lapis lazuli gemstone that was enchanted and allowed vampires to walk in the sun without bursting into flames, and searched for other vampires who could help him learn to control his newfound thirst for human blood and his newfound supernatural abilities — super strength, super speed, the ability to instantly heal from any injury, enhanced senses of sight, smell, hearing, taste, and touch, and the ability to read and control a human's mind.
Jack nicknamed Alexander Alex and took him to Storybrooke with her. She moved out of David and Mary Margaret's apartment, and she and Alex got their own apartment. She and Alex got married, but she decided to keep the last name Frost rather than changing it to Van Helsing. He respected her decision.
May 18, 2018
Regina decided to bring all of the realms to Storybrooke so that everyone could be together. Mary Margaret and David brought it upon themselves to give Regina a coronation and make her the queen of the United Realms.
When Regina commented on the absence of Emma, Killian, Jack, and Alex, Mary Margaret said, "The babies were probably fussy."
Jack ran into the room, carrying her and Alex's adoptive son, Elijah Van Helsing, a baby boy with fair skin, tufts of short brown hair, and green eyes. He was wrapped in a dark blue blanket with frost patterns on it. Shortly after she and Alex adopted Elijah, she had gotten Emma to use her magic to transform her dark blue hooded sweatshirt into a baby blanket.
Jack was wearing the silver snowflake-shaped necklace David gave her, silver high-heeled sandals, and a floor-length dark blue dress with spaghetti straps, a v-neck, and a bedazzled waistband. The dress showed a hint of cleavage. Her curly whitish-blonde hair was gathered at the nape of her neck in a low bun, save for the two wisps of hair that framed her face. Her wedding ring was on her right hand. It was a beautiful ring — a simple silver band with a round dark blue jewel in the middle.
Alex, Emma, and Killian were right behind Jack.
Emma and Killian were right behind Alex.
Emma wore her red leather jacket over her dress. She was carrying a diaper bag.
Killian was carrying his and Emma’s daughter, Hope Swan-Jones.
"Sorry we're late." Alex said.
Alex had a Dutch accent.
Alex had fair skin, blue eyes, and short, straight brown hair. He was 5 foot 10. He was clean-shaven. His body was slender but muscular. He was wearing a black suit, a white dress shirt, a black necktie, and black dress shoes with black laces. His silver wedding ring was on his right hand, and his daylight ring was on his left hand. He was carrying a diaper bag.
Emma walked over to Henry and told him to lend his stepfather a hand. Killian teased that it was a tired joke in their household. Even after all this time, the couple was still flirty with each other.
Throughout Regina's crowning as the Good Queen, Emma and Killian held their child with love in their eyes, and so did Jack and Alex.

Reader ideas I think would be cool in a fic but also stem from daydreaming:
(Below the cut cus’ I wrote a lot)
• Reader who works at a nightclub/rave type-scene, just a bunch of neon lights and loud music and are dressed like head-to-toe in full neon clothing like true coolest look ever.
• Reader who’s like one of the mutants from “Legion” like Sydney: Physical touch can cause them to switch bodies like the kiss or even Lenny’s projection powers and whatever she does.
• Moon-knight! Reader
• Reader that’s like Alice (in wonderland): constantly floating away and dreaming of a better odd-er reality, maybe even takes [character] with them.
• It/Sad girl! Reader. Sad girl: I always envision this one while listening to specific songs like “Brooklyn Baby” or really any Lana song.. cries beautifully while smoking a cigarette, or even like the woman form Scarface. It girl (if you can even call it that?..): more like a quick-response woman, as in if you say something stupid she’ll never hesitate to let you know just how dumb that sounds. Constantly out-smarting the other and doing anything to see them fall. (So basically like Angelina Jolie in “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” is what I’m picturing.)
• Reader that can manipulate reality. I don’t know how to actually describe this one but there’s always a scene in my mind where the reader would be in danger and almost everything around them would change form: like the walls to squares that rotate that basically confuses the enemy but only they have the power to navigate this weird Rubik’s Cube looking room. Or maybe even Wanda in “WandaVision.” Just really crazy sh*t.
• Reader with Angel wings/is an Angel: Yeah this one’s pretty basic lmao, there’s a million and one angel!reader stories but still I think the thought of having giant Angel wings is just sick in general. Along with the thought of how truly gorey that must be, I mean protruding wings the size of a monster truck and plus? Is your spine okay Y/N..?
• Reader who’s like Angel Salvadore: If you know who Angel is this one is pretty self explanatory, however if you don’t Angel is a character that appears in “X-Men: First Class” with fairy-like wings. Basically like a butterfly’s, along with spit that’s extremely dangerous. Stay Clear!
• Devilman! Reader: Yeah so if you’ve been sticking around for a few short (?) months you’ll know this is an idea I had back when I actually finished DMCB. Just a fun little one to think on.
• Meister/Weapon! Reader: Soul eater? Really? I thought of this one at random but to see [character]’s reaction to either their Reader wielding a weapon that they could’ve sworn was just a person?.. Or the reader being that weapon is amusing to think about tbh.
• Just a really really badass grandma. This one I want to envision fezco’s grandmother from “Euphoria” I mean come on.. shooting someone in both knees while their naked below the hips is really badass to see, especially in her case. Seriously you guys, what’s not to like here!?
• Nanno-like! Reader: Nanno in her glory as we all know her, the bringer of bad luck and punishment. Maybe I’m the one out of the loop and this has been done maybe over 10 times but hey, what’s the harm in having some more? The reader does wrong to those who have committed it, pretty simple lol.
• Reader like Emma Frost: Who ISN’T in love with Emma’s fashion and attitude, I mean come on being so close to murder in an all-white outfit? That’s definitely badass. I’ve seen fics with a reader who can alter their skin as she does but it was just a fun thing to add because I just really love this idea.
• Let’s get straight to the point with this one because I have no idea how to describe it. Reader is basically a loyal woman/man/individual who will go extra lengths for their love, not in a yandere way but in a “my lover is an extremely dangerous individual but there’ll always be someone closer who’s even worse, and god help you if you cross their path if you’ve done something to agitate their s/o” way. Basically two lovely people in love who will and can slaughter anyone in their way for eachother. But we’re focused more on the femme-fatale energy Y/N’s putting out here.
• A reader who’s just as deranged as the girls from the purge: if we’re all going to be totally honest here, who wouldn’t want to murder people in adorable outfits and a blinged out car? (If you don’t then think of the circumstances while in the purge maybe it’ll help.) This idea came to me when I was reading a riddler fic, yk his whole murder on stream thing? Yeah maybe the reader could be like that too but they have the most energy that anyone can enjoy, what they’re complimenting people and are dresses really cutely who cares about the man screaming? With this reader though I almost ALWAYS imagine them having a little posse. I mean a group of gal pals (or just pals) to murder with while also looking like the girls in “California Girls”? Literally what’s there NOT to like!
• A reader who’s like “The Countess”: we all know Lady Gaga’s absolutely iconic role as The Countess in “American Horror Story”, and who wouldn’t love to output that kind of energy? It’s just a fun time for everyone isn’t it.
• A reader like Michiko Malandro! (A.K.A. The baddest): A reader who’s recklessness leads them and their sidekick on a journey of mystery and searching, how fun! Michiko’s all over the place attitude is just what some of these characters need, and why not be the one to give it to em! The reader would most def drag them around while they’re insanely confused. Who cares let’s get back on that bike and ride to another country!
Jesus if you’ve stuck around till here you must be ready to close your eyes , thanks for reading my random thought post of stuff I think I would like to read!

Runs in the Family – Anonysquirrel (chibirisuchan)
Summary: Alex knew his own reputation. Hell, he'd started some of his own reputation, because it kept some of the smarter thugs off his back. Everyone knew Alex's reputation. There was no way Hank didn't know his reputation, but he'd brought Alex into a house with some really expensive things and a lot of innocent little kids and his too-friendly, too-harmless dad.
But clearly Hank hadn't told his family anything about Alex, just like he hadn't told Alex anything about his family. At least, not about the brain-breaking parts of his family.
"I didn't know where to start," Hank said, for the dozenth time.
Featuring mpreg!Charles in a Kiss The Cook apron, overprotective!Erik in wet black leather, and baked goods. Lots and lots of baked goods.
Round the Corner Waiting – swoopswoop
Summary: When things go so spectacularly wrong during a relationship, Charles - now a single dad - almost makes a big mistake, only to be stopped by a mysterious man who just might turn his life back around.
Hide Your Fires – swoopswoop
Summary: As the sole heir, Prince Charles, had no problem with the roles and responsibility that would come with ruling a kingdom. Though he was the only one who did not see a problem. After years of being shuttled back and forth between kingdoms, his Regent hoping he would find a match more suitable to being King, he is finally sent to Genosha. Though the path has never been less clear than the one to a foreign kingdom with no ties to his native land.
Shaw’s Captive – swoopswoop
Summary: Magneto killed Shaw, it had to be done for the sake of mutant-kind but what he wasn't expecting to find hidden deep with Shaw's complex was a man held captive, obviously tortured, that somehow made Magneto turn into Erik.
Erik now has a potential human in his citadel as he continues the war with the human's.
Mind’s Eye Blind – Sperare 
Summary: As far as Erik is concerned, if you want to scare a person into talking, you have to present him with something more compelling than what he stands to lose...
And there is nothing in the world more compelling than Charles.
Chipped – Rosawyn 
Summary: Magneto's fledgling Brotherhood find Charles Xavier in a mutations research lab as an apparently willing subject for an experimental suppression device.
Okay, I Feel Better Now – Harleydoll
Summary: The AU in which Erik is sent to a mental health facility after being convicted for Shaw's murder and pleads insanity, and Charles is his paranoid schizophrenic of a roommate. Powers, Hellfire conspiracies, protective!Erik, and of course the inevitable angst.
Five Nights in Nuremberg – FuryRed
Summary: When Charles escapes from the mutant prison he has been held in for the last two years he knows that he’s going to need help to avoid being recaptured.
What he doesn’t expect is that help will come in the form of a mysterious German man who rescues Charles and takes him to his home; a handsome stranger who, frustratingly, doesn’t speak a single word of English…
Five Bullet Points – Sperare
Summary: It was supposed to be Erik locked away in a prison one hundred stories below the ground.
Charles was never supposed to be there with him.
Notes: Unfinished but an excellent read. Highly recommend it.
Stolen – ishipitsobad
Summary: Erik is a miserable, grumpy, cantankerous bastard, and he has every fucking right to be. He drew the short end of the stick when he got the Underworld as his domain, and there isn't very much fun to be had in judging and governing dead souls who would rather be anywhere else but with Erik in the depths of Hell.
So when he meets Charles, brilliant and lovely Charles who is more popularly known amongst the mortals as Persephone, and feels the promise of something wonderful that could make his eternally doomed existence infinitely more bearable... you can bet all your drachmas Erik's not going to let Charles go any fucking time soon.
My Barbaric Darling – baehj2915
Summary: Erik is revivified caveman. Charles is the anthropologist(?) taking care of him. This is as ridiculous as it sounds. Romcom misunderstandings and prehistoric wooing ensues.
Swimming with Sharks – Not_You
Summary: Erik used to be a shark. Now he's not, and has to figure out how to be a good human father to his twins. Charles is willing to help.
Eucalyptus leaf of my soul - kageillusionz, ourgirlfriday
Summary: Zookeeper Raven at Taronga Zoo keeps having ideas on how to capitalize on interest in the zoo mascots, Koala Charles and Drop Bear Erik (the only drop bear in captivity!), who have captured the hearts and minds of the public. First it was to introduce prospective mates (It’ll generate attention, Hank. People are perverts. They’d love to see koala porn.). This idea was not effective the first through fifth attempts, as Erik and Charles seemed to show at best polite interest in the newcomer before resuming whatever marsupial debate they had going. However, the resulting lesbian koala orgies did indeed generate interest. Then Raven unveiled the Hug-A-Koala program, which was successful, as the public showed great interest in hugging Charles, and Charles seemed to enjoy being hugged.
Then Raven unveiled the Hug-A-Drop Bear program, and Hank, not for the first time, wished he had a flask handy.
Notes: Yes, they’re Koalas, yes they’re adorable, and yes, Erik is super protective even as a Drop Bear.

Stucky Fic Recs
So basically I went through all of my ao3 bookmarks and collated a list of some of my favourites (I couldn't fit all of them on this list, so if anyone shows interest there might be a part two).
Please read tags and descriptions of the works before reading, some of them are pretty dark or extremely horny so just make sure you check that the fic is for you!!
Please please please send me your favourite fics in return! I am always happy to hear fic recs, headcanons and any other ideas/comments you all have!
Without any further ado, here are a few of my favourite Stucky fics:
‘Not Easily Conquered’ series by dropdeaddream, WhatAreFear
Rating: M, Words: 117,692
https://archiveofourown.org/series/115516
“I told you, you heard me: I told you never to follow me into Hell. Now I’m not vain enough to think that’s why you’re out here now — if there’s any person in what’s left of this God forsaken planet who’s part of a bigger picture, it’d be you. But I’ll keep saying it until it sticks. You got nothing to prove. I’m not worth much, I damn well know that, but I’ll ask you anyway: Stay for me. If you leave me alone in this world I’ll turn into something terrible. I’ll turn into the nasty creature that’s growing inside me. This war, it’ll swallow me whole”
[To me, this fic is like the classic Stucky 101 fanfic – if you're a Stucky fan and you haven't read this, I highly recommend it. The authors explore the Steve/Bucky relationship in such an interesting, tragic, emotive way and I cry every time I read it. I couldn't praise this work enough.]
‘Ain’t No Grave’ series by spitandvinegar
Rating: M-E, Words: 131,789
https://archiveofourown.org/series/426577
"Yeah, he never calls me by my name," Steve says. "It's always champ, ace, hotshot, that kinda thing."
"Man, that is flirting," Sam says. "That nicknames thing, he is flirting with you. He's just working his way up to calling you baby or something."
Steve goes redder than a damn coke can. Sam pumps his fist. "Yes, I am so right, I am wise as hell. He did, didn't he?"
"He called me sweetheart," Steve says grimly, "because he's a drug addict with brain damage."
"Or because he looooooves you," Sam says. Captain America throws a cookie at his head. Sam eats it, because he deserves a treat for being so damn wise.”
[I'm currently re-reading this fic and absolutely loving it. The way spitandvinegar writes Bucky's road towards recovery and Steve's entire characterisation – it's all just so good. It's another one that covers some pretty dark themes, so make sure you're checkin those tags!]
'Einherjar' by thecommodore_squid
Rating: M, Words: 71297
https://archiveofourown.org/works/7157024/chapters/16249814
But Steve was fine.
Sure, he hadn’t seen Bucky in months, and sometimes he was at the punching bag so long that his skin started to peel off to expose the bones of his fingers, and sometimes he couldn’t find the energy to drag himself out of bed, and sometimes he went weeks without sleeping, and sometimes he thought about throwing himself head-first off the nearest tall structure, but he was fine.
He was absolutely, perfectly, one-hundred percent, fucking fine.
AKA In which Steve learns how to deal with his shit, and Bucky learns how to stop leaving.
[basically the definition of a recovery fic, I absolutely adore it. This is tragic and amazing and makes me cry and smile. It’s got a bunch of fantastic cameos and It really just ticks so many of my boxes.]
‘Like real People do’ by 2bestfriends
Rating: E, Words: 67,775
https://archiveofourown.org/works/19887376/chapters/47103217
“"Ask me what?" demands Bucky. "I didn't hear a question."
Steve licks his lips. "Will you stay with me? Will you come back home, Buck?"
"Home," repeats Bucky in a small voice, and then he's crying for real.”
[Basically soft lumberjack!steve and lonely twink!bucky being horny and in love. This is a comfort fic for that’s really just about my favourite boys falling in love.]
‘This City Bleeds it’s Aching Heart’ by anonymous
Rating: E, Words: 34,537
https://archiveofourown.org/works/835829/chapters/1591736
“The one where Steve and Bucky pose as a happily married couple while on a mission for SHIELD, to catch an international arms dealer hiding in a suburban neighbourhood.”
[The plot in this one is just a good time and i think it’s just a really fun take on the fake relationship trope. Also some really great characterisation.]
‘Home is Wherever I’m With You’ by cydonic
Rating: E, Words: 88,570
https://archiveofourown.org/works/18868081/chapters/44783077
“Bucky kisses Steve and Emma goodbye before they leave for school, which is why – partway down the road – Amelia turns to him and asks, “why are you and Daddy kissing?”
Which is definitely a conversation Bucky’s been expecting since Steve just did it, but it still takes him by surprise. Again, he thinks he should wait for Steve, but Amelia’s not the sort of kid to let anything rest. Plus, Bucky’s taking her to school where she will undoubtedly share the story with anyone who’ll listen.
He also stops to think that Steve’s asked him to stay, which means Bucky must be trusted with their happiness and well-being, at least in some small capacity.
Bucky clears his throat and searches for some explanation that will help Amelia make sense of this sudden turn of events. “Because we love each other,” is all he comes up with.”
[Bear with me, this is a House Flipper!Bucky Au. And dad!Steve. I just love a found family trope I’m not gonna lie to you. Another comfort fic that warms my lil heart.]
‘Lucky Seven’ by BetteNoire (WeAreWolves)
Rating: E, Words: 94,364
https://archiveofourown.org/works/7033105/chapters/16002481
“Back from where--?” James says, the sentence ending in a distinctly undignified squawk as Steve sweeps him up in his arms, bridal-style, and starts carrying him upstairs.
James tenses momentarily then relaxes into Steve's arms and throws back his head and starts laughing. The laughter peals out of him, his body shaking, his amusement occasionally broken by little gasps of pain.
“What's so funny?” Steve frowns.
“You are,” James says, still giggling. “You're ridiculous, Steve Rogers.”
“Behave. Or I will drop you,” Steve growls.
[The shrunkyclunks modern AU of my dreams featuring Mechanic!Bucky and cap!Steve and some really beautiful writing.]
'Dishonor On Your Cow' by mandarou
Rating: E, Words: 111695
https://archiveofourown.org/works/10659162/chapters/23589582
“Sergeant Barnes?”
“Oh, hell no, don’t call him that, man,” Sam warned.
“Captain Fuck Off!” Barnes shouted over him. “Fight me!”
Steve didn’t know whether to laugh or just slink away. He managed to combine the two by pacing two steps and snorting instead. Like a bull.
“I’m gonna need you to calm your ass, Barnes,” Sam said as he went limp again, obstructing Barnes’s struggling under him. “This is so undignified. That is Captain goddamn America.”
“Captain goddamn America!” Barnes repeated, louder. And angrier.
Steve cleared his throat again. “I’ve been looking for you,” he told Barnes.
“I hope you brought lube this time!” Barnes shouted.
[I’m not gonna lie it took me a minute to get into this one but by the end I was crying with them, laughing with them, and just really in my feels. Some very insane things happen so here’s a few of my favourite tags: ‘Seargent Barnes is done with your Shit Steve’, ‘blatant disrespect of a man’s motorcycle’, ‘Steve you ding dong’ and ‘PR nightmares in the form of Supersoldiers’.]
Propietary Information by Notlucy
Rating: E, Words: 85141
https://archiveofourown.org/works/11964402/chapters/27054777
“Okay, so Bucky Barnes has a crush on Steve Rogers. The guy's gorgeous, talented and, oh yeah, the Chief Design Officer of the biggest tech company in the world. In other words: he's so far out of Bucky's league that he might as well be in a different stratosphere.”
[We were never gonna get through this list without a Sugar Daddy!AU (I have a weakness). This one is… saucy and sexy and sweet and uh pretty kinky so read the tags and all. I’ve read it a few times, and I love the way the author has written Steve in this one, he just makes my heart go '!!!']
‘Roots Have Grown’ by AustinB
Rating: M, Words: 17280
https://archiveofourown.org/works/6912451/chapters/15767941
“Bucky is a mildly agoraphobic veteran with funds to spare, who becomes enamored with the cute blonde guy in his building.
So when Steve mentions needing a roommate to cut down on rent costs, Bucky decides it would be a good idea to volunteer.”
[Another weakness of mine is Roommate AUs, and this one is phenomenal. I tend to go for post serum!Steve stories more often, but this is a pre-serum Steve that I just adore.]
‘The Cold Never Bothered me Anyway’ by icoulddothisallday
Rating: E, Words:75562
https://archiveofourown.org/works/11728869/chapters/26425530
“Bucky Barnes has spent his whole life in a state of mild hypothermia. Steve Rogers has spent the last 70 years in the ice. The two things aren’t related until, suddenly, they are. Shrunkyclunks soulmate AU (AKA the awkward bb au).”
[I think this is the only soulmate AU in my bookmarks? I would totally be down to read more though! This one is really fun and really enjoy Bucky’s characterisation here!]
'War, Children' by Nonymos
Rating: E, Words: 106615
https://archiveofourown.org/works/5373050/chapters/12409394
“After Bucky was released from the hospital, it only took him a couple of weeks to give up on himself. Difficult to believe in any kind of future when the simple act of staying alive was almost too big an effort.
Out the frosted window, across the street, there was a tiny homeless guy burrowing under an awning.”
[An interesting exploration of Bucky’s PTSD with a trans!Steve which was a cool take on his character too!]
'The Company You Keep' by orbingarrow
Rating: G, Words: 51191
https://archiveofourown.org/works/3468605/chapters/7613072
“Hurt, hungry, and on the run, the Winter Soldier doesn’t have a lot of safe options to go to for help. Figuring that any friend of Captain Steve Rogers is unlikely to be HYDRA, Bucky takes a chance and reaches out to the first Avenger he can find.
It works out better than anyone could have expected. Eventually.”
[hurt/comfort, recovering Bucky, protective Steve, found family and domestic avengers, need I say more? I absolutely loved this one]
