Even though Charles Xavier is locked up in his special prison, he checks on the mutants with his telepathy and astral projection about how they are moving on without Krakoa. However, Xavier falls into a coma from exerting himself with his astral projection.

Went to see The Marvels tonight and it was brilliant. Plenty of action, comedy, drama and time/space travel shenanigans.
(Spoilers ahead)
So Carol Danvers is Captain Marvel and also technically a Disney Princess. She sang and danced with a Prince (who she is married to) in a ball gown.
Goose had a litter of flurkin/kittens that saved the crew of SABER by eating them then spitting them out later.
The ending is opening up the possibility of multiverse travel with Monica being on a parallel earth with Maria Rambeau and Beast at the X-Men mansion. Is this how we get X-Men and mutants in the MCU?
Cameos of Valkyrie who is a friend of Carol’s that she can call in an emergency (when did that friendship happen?), Kate Bishop and Pizza dog who Kamala wants to recruit for a new team which might include Ant-Man’s daughter Cassie and Beast played by Kelsey Grammer with the mention of Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart? 🤞).

Kamala is a natural leader with experience using her powers in urban combat situations, has very flashy abilities, loves suggesting superhero names and costume ideas, AND comes with fun new music and video games.
I'm just saying. When in X-Men First Class the mutant recruits are stuck in that room, it takes them ten minutes to decide she's their new leader now.
That scene where Moira, Charles, and Erik find them in front of the wrecked statue and window, except it escalates to a full revolt.

Nine more days to get your prompts, folks! @mizjoely, if you want five more feel free to ask for some as well!
Molly Hooper Appreciation Week Winter 2023 Prompt-A-Thon!
Tumblr media
So I figured out what to do for Molly Hooper Appreciation Week literally a few minutes ago so I'm sorry there's no hoopla or time to plan!
For a holiday_wishes gift on Dreamwidth (I linked to the profile in case anyone else wants to participate...it's a lot of fun and my daughter and I are both participating this year), I recently compiled over 1,000 non-fandom/non-character specific prompts. Included in that are 750 sentence starter prompts/text message prompts. So I'm going to randomly give some of the prompts out to you guys!
HOW TO PARTICIPATE IN THE MOLLY HOOPER APPRECIATION WEEK WINTER PROMPT-A-THON
Send me an ask at @mollyappreciationweek with how many prompts you want (no more than five; if you finish your five you can get up to five more each time you finish five).
Let me know whether you want a sentence starter prompt, a regular prompt (better for artwork/gif sets/etc), a mix or it doesn't matter.
Let me know which blog you want me to send the prompt(s) to; if you have a writing or fandom blog where you post your art, include that username and I will send your asks there from my main blog (@mousedetective...if you have my main blocked and still want to participate, I can DM them to you).
I will send each prompt as a separate ask; please reply to the ask with the fic or a link to it when you're done. Please also @ @mollyappreciationweek somewhere in the ask so it goes on the blog's activity, in case I miss an answer.
I will reblog your fic to the main Molly Hooper Appreciation Week blog. The fics do not need to be themed about winter, Christmas or New Year's, but I will be giving out prompts from December 1st to December 31st. You can answer them at your leisure, even if it takes a while (our AO3 collection is always up to late answers).
RULES
- Any kind of fanwork you can think of is acceptable for this week: fanfic, fanart, fanvids, manipulations, gifsets (please make sure they are your gifs, though, and you’re not taking them from others without permission), meta, headcanons…anything you can think of that would celebrate Molly Hooper that would fit in with a prompt will be accepted with much pleasure.
- Be kind and respectful to everyone participating. We don’t want any wank because this is a week for sharing our love for a character who loves pretty much everyone we’ve seen her meet.
- If there’s something submitted that you like, please like it (or even better, reblog it so others can see it too)! If there’s a link to it on another website, go to that website and leave them love there as well.
- Any and all romantic ships are allowed. Het, femslash, poly…you ship it, we want to see it! We turn no one away. All ships are valid ships. Likewise, all takes on Molly’s sexuality and gender are valid for this week as well. Not everyone shares the same headcanons but we should all be respectful of others.
- If you post something for the day, please make sure one of your first five tags is “molly appreciation week”. We will not be using secondary tags this round as we don’t want to clog the tags this round.
- If you want your work to be reblogged on @mollyappreciationweek you must @ the blog somewhere in your post. I get alerts on the activity when the blog is mentioned and then I will know to go and save your post to the drafts to reblog when the round is over. I will still check the tag but there is no guarantee I will see your post unless you @ @mollyappreciationweek as well.
AO3 COLLECTION
There will be a collection, as per usual, which will be opened as soon as I make it for people to post their works. It will remain open for perpetuity as you are always allowed to answer these prompts even after the posting dates are officially over. When it is created you will be able to find it on the parent collection (so this way the link is sort of up now and not lost in reblogs).

Kamala Pinballs Through the XCU: DoFP
(I wanted to do these all in order but I really had to get this out first pls forgive me.)
Charles was tired. He had been tired for the better part of a decade now. The strange man who had refused to help them back in '62 suddenly rushing into his school house and demanding his help to save the world did not make him any less tired.
And now Erik's little friend was back here, too. Still as tiny as before. Still seeming to be looking for her Monica.
"Listen, kid, between you and me. I don't think she's going to be in this tweenaged kleptomaniac's house." He leaned over to mutter into her ear, because really, why hadn't he thought to ask this before? Why was she following them around?? Charles wasn't any use to her anymore.
"Yeah, but I got curious." She replied, brushing him off to join Peter Maximoff at the arcade machine, "Dude, you gotta let me play a match. I love retro games."
"Sure!" He grinned at her as he pressed the New Game button, "Retro, huh? Really committing to the time travel bit, I see. I respect it."
"It's the truth!" Kamala insisted, jamming a button sharply and earning a goal before Peter could even think to block it.
"Okay, Future Girl." He grinned, "Where am I in the wonderful world of 2026?"
"Under a gravestone if you don't help us." Logan growled impatiently.
Kamala reached forward and grabbed his shoulder, before Peter could distract himself with annoying the man further, and smiled at him, "You're a hero, Quicksilver."
For some reason, that was what jolted a decade-old memory in Charles' brain, back from the first time he had crossed paths with Kamala Khan. Which, according to Logan, was just going to be the first of many.
Not just any memory. It was a memory he had taken from Kamala's mind, trying to find out what Monica's mind felt like from the imprint left in Kamala's mind by the interrogation machinery.
It was a confused garbled mess of voices and images and painpainpain. A young man who looked nothing like Peter except for the silver hair and the memory insisting it was Pietro Maximoff falling to the ground, riddled by bullets. Superimposed over another image.
Their Peter. Older now. Sitting on a haybale, wearing a shoddy costume. Sirens screaming because this was a fake, it was all fake, Pietro was dead and gone and never coming back-
"Charles? Charles, are you okay?" Hank was holding his shoulders, as Charles slowly came back to reality.
Dammit. Why was this happening again? It was an old memory. He was meant to be safe, now. It was all supposed to work out.
"I think- I think I need some more of the serum." He choked out.
"Are you sure? It's too early. Even with your tolerance building up a little, it should still be working at this poi-"
"The serum, Hank." His voice was cruel and desperate, but he couldn't bother to apologize as he headed for the car where he knew Hank had to have stashed some.
Thoughts and memories and nightmares from decades ago were still trapped inside his skull. If he had to bear with anymore-
He'd break. Even worse than he was already.
(The rest of the ficlets are under Unexpected Baggage Parts 1-3. Probably will write more. They detail Erik and Kamala teaming up during First Class.)
(In case you don't know, Kamala and Monica (and Carol) briefly had a telepathic link when they shared memories to see the starchart Dar-Benn was using. That link caused a transfer of other traumatic memories between the three. But what neither Charles or Kamala know is that Monica's mind has been rewritten a few times by Wanda Maximoff, leading to memories of Wanda's extreme grief being transmitted over. Such as the flashbacks Charles just got)

Hello! New to the X-men fandom, drawn here by Scott Summers (I love your blog so much!) Two questions, if you don't mind:
1. What would you consider essential reads for Scott specifically? There are so many starting points it seems.
2. I did finish Whedon's run of Astonishing X-Men (at the recommendation of reddit) and was wondering if Scott (now?) doesn't need his ruby quartz glasses/visor? Sorry if that's a run-specific question!
Hello!
The first question is surprisingly difficult, only because Scott's such a staple throughout the entirety of the X-Men. So let me kind of give you a run down of your options.
--
The 60s comics are really fun, if you want to see where things began. It is very 60s though, and the style may not be to your taste. There's also some period sexism that's not great (though surprisingly less than I expected. Possibly because Jean's meant to be a fairly liberated teen, as opposed to older ladies like Sue Storm or Janet Van Dyne.)
The Claremont Era (Starting with Giant-Sized X-Men, which introduces staples like Storm and Wolverine) is probably what will be the most familiar to folks who became used to the X-Men from other sources, like the cartoons. The Animated Series and X-Men '97 adapt a lot of Claremont era stuff, so it'll be pretty familiar.
It's also soapy and dramatic, and Scott (and Jean) feature very heavily. You'll also meet Rachel. Rachel is fun.
X-Factor's first run is something I'd recommend only after you've gotten into the character more. It's actually really good, IMO, and an amazing deconstruction of how much of a trainwreck the poor guy actually is. It's not always a flattering portrayal though, which is part of what makes it interesting. (It is good though to read the Madelyne stuff for yourself eventually, summaries tend to ignore the aspects that make Scott's side of things a bit more understandable, if not sympathetic.) Baby Cable is here too.
The 90s X-Comics are pretty fun too, like the earlier Claremont era, this is likely what folk are familiar with if they remember the cartoons. Costumes, characters, and so on. Scott is one of a very large cast, but he tends to have some really good arcs here and there. The art takes getting used to it. This is where you'll start seeing adult Cable as a major character. And another AU Summers child, Nate Grey. He's complicated.
the 2000s-2011 era of Comics have a lot of upheaval and events. Scott is still an idealist, but he's been jaded by a lot of events (and will be jaded by more). You'll see him get darker here, but not evil. It's pretty sad though. SO MANY big events though, Scott pulls off a lot of wild shit.
In 2011-2016, we have two Scotts basically. Avengers vs. X-Men is a massively huge event that changes Scott's role for a long time. For our main Scott, the next few years are going to read a lot like whump fic. He's going to suffer, people are going to blame him (unfairly, imo!) for a lot of things, and he'll be treated like a monster at times. That said, there are people who do see the truth and end up even joining him.
But also around this time, through shenanigans (read: Hank McCoy), the timeline is disrupted and the 1960s era Original Five (specifically circa issue #8) are brought to the future. They have their own adventures in lines like All-New X-Men (v1. and v2.), X-Men Blue, and Scott specifically has a solo series early on and then joins up with Kamala Khan's Champions and it's darling.
Eventually older Scott "dies" (it happens in comics). Young Scott continues though. When Young Scott goes to the past again, older Scott comes back (unrelated reasons).
For 2019-2020, there's a short run by Matthew Rosenberg, starting at issue 11 or so. The original team of X-Men is presumed dead (really they're dealing with some multiversal nonsense. Possibly Nate Grey's fault), and a returned Scott starts gathering new X-Men. It's intense, angsty and kind of bleak. This isn't about saving the world anymore, just maybe going out doing what they should.
From 2020-2023, we get a massive, amazing change in direction called the Krakoa arc. Scott's not featured as prominently here (It's Xavier's show), but he's solid in any series that he appears (Adjectiveless X-Men will always have him somewhere. He's very prominent in Teen Cable's book too.) Krakoa is something very different than anything the X-Men series(es) have done before and it's definitely worth reading. Though for my own taste, I like the return to form that comes with...
Our current era is "From the Ashes" and it's not actually a bad place to jump on. Everyone's a little scattered and out of sorts since the fall of Krakoa, but Scott, being who he is, has already pulled his own book together for the kind of mutant-rescuing heroics that he is wont to do.
As to where to start? Honestly, I'd go with whatever seems the most fun to you. Eventually, I think, you'll find yourself branching out and it won't be nearly so confusing. (There are also wikis, podcasts, and annoying pedants like me who like explaining everything.). Fans will often have their favorite special books (Children of the Atom, for example, is probably my favorite version of the O5 origin. It came out in 2001 and has a truly horrifying Jack Winters), and we'll always leap on the opportunity to share those things.
-------------------------------------------
as for 2. I don't know if you read the Giant-Sized finale of Astonishing X-Men, but they do have a scene where Scott's eyes start glowing again and Emma places the visor on him. It's a nice, quietly somber scene.
In current X-continuity, Scott does still need the visor. The inability to control his blasts may have a psychological component but there's also physical brain damage. (In the Krakoa arc, there are mechanisms where he might have repaired said damage, but it actually does come up at some point, and he specifically chooses not to. I hope I can find that page again, because I feel like there's a lot of interesting potential meta in that choice.)
I don't think they ever really revisit why Emma (or Cassandra, possibly) had been able to neutralize Scott's blasts/restore temporary control over them, but I tend to go with the interpretation that a powerful enough telepath could force a bypass with his powers, but it's an incredibly traumatic, potentially damaging, and ultimately temporary solution. Hence, what we see.
For her part, Jean Grey (at least in the modern era) is able to psychically block his powers. And that's always fun. (And sometimes a little kinky!)
