#I am unthreatened by the logan-jean-scott triangle

oh nooo rogue broke gambit's heart boo hoo- You know you don't owe other people your neverending devotion just because you had a relationship or you flirt with each other.

To be clear I have a deep discomfort with rogue/magneto and I'm very glad she decided to reject magneto after the dance BUT she's not evil or wrong for wanting to be close with someone and kiss someone aside from gambit! I love rogue/gambit but it's not like he owns her, and she's not being bad to him by going off with magneto. Yes, it broke gambit's heart when they danced, but SHE didn't break his heart. She can't reach into his brain and force him to be heartbroken (maybe jean or emma could lol) and she can't take full responsibility for his emotional reactions. She is allowed to be with other people than him. The fact that it upsets him is not something she should bend over backwards to avoid. It's normal for someone you love to love another person, there's like a million songs about it!

I think, in general, fandom behavior about "OTP" typified characters leads to a weird rigidity around these relationships, and makes everything less fun for the people who actually enjoy the couple but don't think they should belong exclusively and always to each other
