#no brain energy to actually analyse this i just noticed this because i rewatched the wolverine movies back to back

[gossippool]

so you know what i've been thinking about. in x-men origins the movie ends with logan saying "i'll find my own way." and he does. same thing in the wolverine: "where do you wanna go?" "let's start with up." "and then?" "we'll see." in deadpool & wolverine: "what are you gonna do next?" "i'll figure it out, i always do."

all this while he's insisted on going his own way not just because he could or because he's a free spirit, but because he's had nothing keeping him in one place. after origins logan loses his memories and spends, what, 2 decades alone? in the wolverine he's lost jean and goes off on his own for two years before he's recruited.

in the worst wolverine's timeline he spent god knows how long alone because he'd lost everyone. all logan's movies ended the same way or with him literally dead because he either:

had no one to ask him to stay, or

couldn't bring himself to stay.

and then whoopdeedoo at the end of deadpool & wolverine he's so ready to leave again; he's no stranger to solitude. maybe he thinks he still has no reason to stay, that in this short time he probably hasn't gotten anyone to care enough to ask. but then wade calls his name. and for the first time, he stays
