Just a thought and no offense but I think Logan just wants to be in love and feel loved in return.
(This isnt proofread and came out as rambling so have fun trying to read it and decipher it! 😅)
So WE ALL know that Logan can be flirty, and that he may have had a period where he was a bit of a manwhore (*cough* 70s Logan *cough*)
I feel like that period though, and any other flings, one night stands, etc whatever was less out of lust and more of a desperation to feel SOME kind of human connection bc the mans so lonely and has been treated like a soldier, a weapon for so long that hes desperate for human connection, even if it makes him end up feeling depraved afterwards. Post-nut clarity wakes him up next to some girl he met at a bar, and guilt sinks its teeth into him because he doesnt even know her name, much less actually LIKE her. The man was born in the 1800s, he may have grown with time but you cannot tell me theres not some inkling of being a gentleman- and wanting to find someone you truly love, hidden in there somewhere. I think overtime he may fall into this routine, believing he needed to be a walking sex magnet, gruff, cocky, whatever have you because hes convinced its the only way he can have a connection with someone, even if its for a few passionate moments under bedsheets, and an awkward "that was nice. Bye"
It only fuels his self hatred, convincing him that he really his just an animal, looking to get his sick desires out, eat, fuck, sleep, survive.
When we see him in the X movies, as a cage fighter he is brutal and rough and he doesnt seem to have a caring bone in his body yet he still manages to find himself caring about this young girl who stowawayed in his trailer, and does help her, even if he acts like this version of logan he created. Someone who doesnt care. But he cares. A lot.
Its not until he meets YOU, that he starts to wonder if he got it all wrong. Kind, beautiful, smart YOU.
I fully believe that logan just wants a partner. One night stands, flings, what have you, were just him lying to himself, desperate to feel something other than hate. After he lost his memories, and he began just wandering, the concept of love was lost on him. And lust wasnt there anymore either. He was approached by women, perfectly fine, pretty women, all the time during his time cage fighting, bars, etc. He turned them all away- completely opposite of logan 30-40 years ago (my timing probs not right on xmen lol) who was convinced the only way he was living was if he had ass next to him every night he went to sleep because he was lonely. This version of logan, lost, angry, wanted nothing to do with people. Some of it the repressed feelings coming out from his past that he doesnt even remember. He was convinced then that he had to be alone. Becoming a lone wolf that bared his teeth at anyone who tried to pet it. Secretly though, deep down although he wouldnt admit it, there was that deep desire, that he always felt in his 200 years, that he just wanted to find his mate. He'd call soulmates bullshit if you asked him, but the moment he meets you, hed know that it was real, and that maybe god cursed (gifted) him the ability of healing and practical immortality just so he could find you. And hed do it over and over again, the pain and suffering and loneliness, if it meant you would be the endgoal.
Logan is a pack animal. He needed a family, to protect, and cherish. When he meets and ends up at the x-men, his demeanor and attitude changes quickly to something similar to a dog that snaps at you when you pet it only for it to whine and whimper "im sorry, please dont hate me, i just dont know how to accept love.". Hes still wary, because hed never KNOWN a family before. Put aside his memory loss, the closest things he had to a family was a creep of a brother, and a woman who said she loved him under false pretenses (i still dont like you kayla even if you say it was real). He barely knew his parents, and even then that was a lie because his father wasnt even his biological father. Yeah, Logans life was pretty damn lonely, so its no wonder the man is cautious of anybody and anything.
The moment you come into his life though, that bitterness, anger, and meaningless flirting goes right out the window. Hes serious about you. Hes usually cautious, nervous around people but he meets you and its almost like he threw all those imaginary rules he has for himself out of the window.
Look at how he was with Jean in the movies. He barely knew the woman, they barely shared ANY lines in the movie yet he was almost completely devoted (dont get me started on that storyline). Trust didnt come easy to the wolverine. And Kayla- their relationship just shows how much he wants love and to be loved. I never seen origins but a lot of gifsets and read the synopsis of the plot, but i think he had a feeling with Kayla he couldnt trust (remember how he says hell never go against his gut again?) But he so badly just wanted that connection he ignored all the warning signs and did everything to build a life with this woman who not only tricked him, but put him through unimaginable pain both physically and mentally. (Look I REALLY dont like kayla but i do feel bad for her because stryker did have her sister captive). I know stryker is the evil mastermind here, but god imagine trying to find love with someone, only for it all to be a farce, even if they claimed they did love you the entire time- the intentions from the very beginning was far from love.
Oh but when he is in love with you. From the moment he met you, it wasnt love at first sight exactly, more like a feeling that you were it. Hes all about you. He sticks around, under the pretense that he just needed to make some money first, doing some missions for charles, keep an eye on rogue. He cant admit its because he wants to stay close to you. Hes like a feral cat taking shelter in your shed. Stays away at first, cautious of your spspspsp, but curious nonetheless. Completely ignores the first bowl of food you put down for it- or so you thought because when you came back it was completely devoured. It takes weeks of food and spspsps before it finally warms up to you, but after that first contact with your hand and its head- good luck ever getting rid of it. Not that youd want to 😊
Logan becomes a shadow to you, once you become something akin to friends. (Its really more than that but no ones addressed it). He teases you and flirts with you, and its something you think he does with everyone, until Ororo tells you that he only does it to you. Sometimes he just sits in your company, other times hes curious about what youre working on, not wanting to start the convo, but does things like leering over your shoulder (which he may or may not be doing just to he close to you and get a good whiff of the smell of your hair). He stresses when you go on missions without him. He slowly opens up about his past to you when he begins to get his memories back. Trusting only you (and maybe charles) with the truth ablut the man he used to be, and still is.
When your feelings finally do come out in the open though, however it happens, that first kiss, the first time you make love, etc etc. Logans a different man. I mean, hes still that cocky, grumpy person we all know and love. But he carried himself differently. Hes confident and wiser, hes comfortable, and hes happy. He found a home, his pack. And maybe after countless conversations about his past, the things hes done, and the comforting words and understandings you give him, he starts to learn that he isnt so bad, because if you love him, YOU, the most wonderful person hes ever known in 200 years, love him despite all of his violence and hatred and slight whoreish tendecies back in the 70s...then he must be alright.
He doesnt need to worry about his past anymore, when hes got you, right there with him, promising a loving future together.

Gotta Dance! [Peter Maximoff]
Tumblr media
Fluff//drabble
You like to dance to yourself to whatever cassette you had in your walkman, and when a silver haired friend of yours finds you, he decides to just have a bit of fun.
Omg okay I finished 3 xmen movies with Maximoff in em, and gah I understand why people love him now. Heres a fic.
I made it decently time accurate I think so tell me if there are any inaccuracies.
No one's perspective
⊹˚.⋆ ₊꒷ᘏᘏ︶ଓ︶꒷꒦⊹˚ᗢ₊꒷︶ଓ︶꒷
Peter was always one to dance if he had a chance, especially to his own music taste. Classical or fancy music was always too slow.
So why on earth was he staring at you through a window? Watching you move around the empty hall, at 1am in the dark. Music in your headphones, blasting at a volume that could've burst anyone's eardrums. Yet, he couldn't tell the song playing in your ears. All he could tell was that he liked the way you moved. Swift movements, like an audience being danced around, walking around your footsteps. You were in your own mind, not particularly caring if anyone else was awake. If someone was, it was probably Charles, attempting some work.
A new pair of footsteps once you were done. Now, catching your breath, you were sat in one of the corners, admiring the hall around you. The rest of your music went on, and you didn't hear the steps until they stopped next to you. A hand pulling your headphones off your head. Your reaction was quick, and you grabbed his wrist tightly. "Hey! Calm, just noticed you were alone. That's all." That voice was so familiar to you. So close to your memory.
You let go of his wrist slowly but kept your eyes on the dark figure standing beside you. "What you are doing up at 1 in the morning then?" You questioned, trying to piece together a puzzle. The answer? Who was it smooth-talking their way into your tired mind? Then a glimmer of the moonlight hit mystery figure's hair. A silver shimmer. Of fucking course. Peter Maximoff. The one person who you particularly did not hope saw you dance just now.
"Fast body fast brain. Can never usually slow down enough to get enough sleep."
An eyebrow raised then crossed arms. "You sure about that Silver? Every time I go to talk to you, you're snoring the whole school down."
"Silver? Very creative."
"Silver Sliver. Like a silver snake who slivers around whenever he gets a chance." A cocky grin as you reminded Peter of why you nicknamed him 'silver sliver' a nickname always on the tip of your tongue. But also now ignoring the sneaky jab about how much he actually slept.
He hummed and nodded towards your own Walkman. "Who are you listening to?"
"This new singer I found called Taco. He's literally called Taco it's so funny." You rambled, rewinding it to the previous song and putting the headphones on him.
Puttin' On The Ritz.
It was smooth, almost buttery to you, but Maximoff simply stood there and nodded along. "Too slow for you Silver?" A chuckle escaped you, leaning your elbow on the radiator.
"Not at all." He grinned. Not that you could see how he grinned. But the way he spoke made you think he was planning something. Hands grabbing yours, pulling you away from your safe little corner. A groan was heard along with a small fit of giggles. What on earth had you dragged yourself into?
In the silence, the faint tune of the song was heard, and he started to dance, holding your hands, and whipping you around. Even in the musk of the night both of you held eye contact with each other, feeling oh so fancy with a song about The Ritz. What an odd feeling to have with your best friend. Sensing comfort when he held you close, exaggerating his steps, exaggerating his facial expressions even though you couldn't see them that well. That damn speedster.
Minutes went by fast. Both of you stood wherever as the new song could faintly be heard. "You're a good dancer." You noted with a smile, still holding hands and reluctant to let go.
"yeah. I think you're pretty good too." Cocky as ever. Feeling like he was on top of the world or something. "So..." Maximoff started, you hummed and tilted your head to the side slightly.
"Can I get you a drink or something?"
"...Sure." a little laugh. "Preferably when it's daytime."
A shared nod before the speedster brought you close again and danced with you.

So for like Glass Child Reader, I didn't really have any specific ideas when I started rambling...but I ended up thinking about the name really literally and kinda going from there. So for a powerset, I kinda imagine them having the ability to camouflage/change color kind of like a chameleon. It's not like Mystique where they can look like anyone at anytime, but they can blend in with the crowd or an environment super easy. Be it blending into a forest-scape or looking like an average citizen walking through times square, they can pull it off. Sometimes a simple eye and hair color change can throw people off and Reader knows better than to let people get a good view of their face.
They're a stealth expert as opposed to a combat expert making them actively important for missions so the Xmen know what to expect, but easy to forget since they aren't part of the "climax" of whatever problem the Xmen are dealing with. But it might have been impossible to win if Reader didn't get them the info they needed. When times were simply, Reader might have used their powers to entertain their friends: see what crazy color combos they can make their hair, how fast they can blend in with the wall, try to match someone's exact shade of nail polish, etc. Dumb teen things that were fun at the time...but may have inadvertently made their friends brush them off as fun/cool but harmless or not helpful.
I imagine that it isn't until the Xmen are lacking important intel that someone actually starts to realize that something is wrong...
Oooo... so Reader is someone who tried to entertain, to get others to relax and have fun, but then everyone thought they didn't have problems, weren't struggling in their own way, that they didn't have a life outside of the persona they crafted just for the others...
Maybe they have a codename like Glass, or Mirror, or Chameleon... maybe it's Prism, or Mimic... but they seem to live up to it, never being seen as important, or in need of anything, and slowly forgotten...
(If you would like, @sugar-soda suggested they join Deadpool when they leave it all behind... if not Deadpool, perhaps someone else or an organization?)

💗 for the ask game!!
a fic you’ve reread again and again and why!
okay this is long and rambling and contains ships i dont even CARE about anymore but here are the fics i KEEP rereading over and over again. no motogp on here yet cuz frankly i havent had the space to reread them without the accompanying braininsane etc, but these are the ones i pull up when im gonna be on a plane for ten hours or whatever:
and these, from atoms by kay_cricketed, charles/erik, xmen
NO ONE. has ever written a post xmfc fic that has adequetely addressed that character dynamic imo. EXCEPT THIS GUYYYYYY... tragically unfinished but worth it for the way it understands charles and erik's issues, opinions, affection, trauma, and politics (mostly).
The Fire Sermon on Mount Cyllene by kangeiko, prost/senna, f1
insane in the membrane vintage f1 yaoi spontaneous genderbend fic. it WHIPS
God Loves A Medic by stewardess, roe/speirs, band of brothers
listen this ship is insane but this fic is GOOD... eugene roe has healing hands....
the yungmeng accords by cafecliche, wei wuxian and jiang cheng, the untamed
the BEST thing about the untamed is the horrifically broken sibling relationship at its center. this fic understands that tragedy and ALSO understands that it can never quiteeee be remedied, but it matters that they LOVE each other... so good so yummy
in the shadow of your wings by Enochian Things (Salr323), destiel, spn
literally just so funny that cas gets an italian boyfriend and it kinda breaks dean's brain. love to reread for the schadenfreud
the long hangover by coffiocake, superbat, dc comics
another ship idrc about BUT. this fic is so good and i'd bet everyone has surface level familiarity with these characters enough to have a good time. FUN use for dramatic irony and presumed death... yayyyy
trust falls and probability excercises, vasquez/faraday, the magnificent seven
fr i dont even care about this MOVIE like at ALL but again this fic is fuckinggggggood. explores luck as a superpower AND another presumed death thing. arguably my fav trope sowwy
a few degrees warmer by bigboobedcanuck, winniz, band of brothers
WINNIX NATION. ARE YOU OUT THERE.....
in our line of work by enjambament, arthur/eames, inception
watched this movie once and went okay. that happened. anyways this is if the gay guys involved lived out ten yrs of married life and then. WOKE UP. and it was a DREAM. agony etc
ordinary numbers by BootsnBlossoms, Kryptaria, 00q, james bond
DONT care about this ship again. um. GREAT fic i reread her all the time <3
the salt king by ladyblahblah, sidgeno, hockey rpf
hockey rpf is just GOOD FICTION !!!!! and this is probably my MOST reread fic maybe ever except the band of brothers ones... geno is a selkie sid is a fisherman and they DIE and get re-incarnated into HOCKEY PLAYERS.... awesome

hi just wanted to say your blog is so cool… I am also obsessed with x-men and as for doctor who 12th doctor is my fav of all time. I have an angst edit of logan’s suffering if you’d be interested :3 (also my dms are open if you’d be interested in talking about x-men or whatnot! cause I am losing my mind tbh)
omg hi :)
I'm glad you like my blog it's just me saying whatever comes to my mind at any given moment just as a way of getting things off my chest so I'm glad someone enjoys my chaotic ramblings
dr who and the xmen are my favourite things rn I love them both more than anything it's all I think about (and I would LOVE to see the edit of logan suffering that's my favourite genre of edit)
(I would also love to talk more about xmen and things with you because I too am losing my mind and no one will listen to me lol)

Your blog is the reason I got tumblr!!1 thank u for doing what u do <3 how did you get into retro stickers?
Welcome to the website! :)
I'm a big fan of stickers as little pieces of art that are easily accessible. They're relatively cheap, mass produced and can be found almost anywhere.
But that comes with a kind of, transience? People get scared of using them because you can only stick them once, and they're going to fade away at some point.
I had a bookcase covered in Xmen stickers I got with sweets as a kid, it's long gone but it's also one of the first things that got me into comics. I have a couple of stickers on my laptop that are scratched up and faded, but I still have the memories of where I got them. I love picking up stickers for whatever I'm hyped about at the time. They won't last forever but hey, nether will my attention span.
So, by archiving stickers I'm keeping some of that memory alive? I adore seeing tags and comments from people who had these stickers as kids.
Got a bit rambly there, but yeah. Stickers good. ❤

can you do a character letter from hank mccoy (xmen; the new trilogy) to madi, and he confesses his feelings to her?
Tumblr media
Madi,
A letter is the best way to do this, I think. There’s a multitude of reasons why a letter is the best way of going about this although I’d be stalling if I were to give you a list. One of the main reasons are, that you or I can be on missions at any time and this is more convenient, or the other reason is that I would become a rambling mess with no ability to speak or tell you want I have to say (and Charles is the last person I’d want reading my thoughts even if I did give him permission.
Rather what I am trying to tell you and what I hope comes across in this letter is that I have feelings for you. Feelings of the romantic sort although the feelings I have towards you of the platonic type have never gone away in case that was a worry for you. No, what I feel for you is something akin to love. I say ‘akin’ due to the fact that I’m unsure if it is love. It’s not friendship but love is a strong word and I don’t want you to jump to any conclusions only for it to damage something that hasn’t even started because I can’t come across clearly.
The truth is that I don’t know how it happened. One moment I had my life semi under control, I had a lab to conduct experiments in and government funding to do so. The next moment you’ve entered my life and I’m a mess. I’m a mess with a thousand different emotions running through me because I don’t know where to go from here. I don’t know how to proceed. Hence another reason for the letter. If I don’t have everything written down then I’ll become unintelligible.
The choice is yours. Whatever you do with the information in this letter is up to you, I wanted you to know how I felt but whatever your next step is then I will be there to support you if you wish me to. Or if you’d like some avoidance to sort your own feelings out then I will not be around. The decision is yours, I just hope that if anything a friendship remains.
Yours truly,
Hank McCoy

all the ones you want to do 👀
well, here’s everything except the ones i’ve answered, you asked for it
theyre mostly about my youngmabel au, which i will ramblr about for free if anyones interested :’)
What is that one scene that you’ve always wanted to write but can’t be arsed to write all of the set-up and context it would need? (consider this permission to write it and/or share it anyway)
i’ve, for a really really long time, wanted to write like. a scene where laura kinney and henry sutter Talk Their Shit Out, but that would take so so long and i’m not motivated... sorry laura and henry. okay i think the rest of these will b about mabel but. gotta stick with my idiots.
Share a sentence or paragraph from your writing that you’re really proud of (explain why, if you like)
this is from my young mabel story !!
“[Mabel] stops banging her head when she feels a stab of anxiety slash through her stomach. It’s not hers, that much is obvious-- it’s a soft golden feeling, the nerves, the-- 
The girl in the front of her mind, with hair cut just below her ears. Small scatterings of pimples across her face. She has a smile without sharp teeth; she cracks her knuckles when she’s bored or needs to fidget; she owns a pair of overalls she wears at least twice a week in the summer, when she’s in the mood to run around the fields outside her home, barefoot, with a friend or a girlfriend, when she wants to smoke a cigarette or two (she’d kicked the habit exactly three weeks ago today, she’s really proud of herself and her sister is, too), her sister’s name is Mónica and her name is Anna, Anna, Anna, Anna, Anna--
Anna Limon, Anna Limon, Anna Limon.”
the reverance to which mabel says anna’s name has always Hit Me for personal reasons and this scene i think is good. that is all
What character that you’re writing do you most identify with?
right now? either vera or mabel. vera is... not Right, and not Wanted by the outside world, so she’s angry and stupid to combat it. and mabel just... loves Her Person more than anything in the world, so there’s that. 
What character do you have the most fun writing?
again, mabel!! she’s so fun and angry all the time and it’s so freeing to just be able to do whatever the hell you WANT with a character
What do you think are the characteristics of your personal writing style? Would others agree?
Uh!! I think i use a lot of metaphor and write a lot of physical affection :’) i’m not sure if others would agree but that’s pretty basic!!
Is what you like to write the same as what you like to read?
yeah...
Are you more of a drabble or a longfic kind of writer? Pantser or plotter? 
i write a lot of drabbles, but my proudest works are my long fic!!! i also plot way too much and i love to do it.
Do you wish you were the other?
i have no idea what this means but... yeah i guess? How would you describe your writing process?
pace around my entire house looping one (1) song thinking of one (1) scene. figure out exactly what it would take to get the characters to that point. write like 2000 words, fall asleep, cant make words for the next three years.
What do you envy in other writers?
oh god, everything. i don’t know how to make my words flow like certain people do, RIVER
Do you want your writing to be famous?
god no. my stories are mine.
Do you share your writing online? (Drop a link!) Do you have projects you’ve kept just for yourself?
yes! here! there’s one story i’ve only shared with two people and that’s my borderline-ridiculous ‘beetlejuice with lab rats and gay shit and werewolves’ au, it’s the most self indulgent thing i’ve ever written and i love it so much.
At what point in writing do you come up with a title?
usually while listening to songs!! fr example my most recent posted fic is a lyric from ‘cop car’ by mitski because the line ‘i get mean when i’m nervous / like a bad dog’ makes me think of mabel, thus that fic came into existence.
Which is harder: titles or summaries (or tags)?
SUMMARIES i hate summaries usually i just paste in whatever i’ve got as the first sentence.
Tried anything new with your writing lately? (style, POV, genre, fandom?)
not really? new fandom but. i got my bread and butter, dude, i don’t feel like branching out. writing’s just a hobby i’m okay at.
Do you think readers perceive your work - or you - differently to you? What do you think would surprise your readers about your writing or your motivations?
i don’t think so !! like some of the stuff is personal and you can’t really understand from an outside POV, but. most of it is just dorky found family stuff!
Do any of your stories have alternative versions? (plotlines that you abandoned, AUs of your own work, different characterisations?) Tell us about them.
oh dear god yes... i mean. obvs river youre asking this youre aware of my aus. but i have a billion aus, theyre my favorite thing to write and ive got at least three for every fandom i’m in. i have an au for my lab rat beetlejuice au, too, which i’ll get around to writing someday.
Is there something you always find yourself repeating in your writing? (favourite verb, something you describe ‘too often’, trope you can’t get enough of?)
ALL I DO IS DESCRIBE PEOPLE’S TEETH AND PHYSICAL AFFECTION. uhh i use the phrase ‘bared their teeth / had far too many teeth / smiled with too many teeth’ a lot, its because i find it the easiest descriptor for monsters and i like to write about monsters.
Tell us the meta about your writing that you really want to ramble to people about (symbolism you’ve included, character or relationship development that you love, hidden references, callbacks or clues for future scenes?)
ohh god okay youngmabel take three. anna wears soft reds and lots of layers-- to contrast mabel, who wears a thin nightgown and has a bright green color palette. this is largely because mabel has been made to show herself to everyone who’s tried to control her (sally, aurora silver, etc) while anna hides in herself. anna specifically wears one of mónica’s old sweaters, because she can hide and protect herself with her family, while mabel cant. also i love mónica im so hype to have her in the series. mabel also repeats things in groups of threes (”hello, hello, hello, anna, hello, hello, hello”) because she’s fae. i love her. ough and i cant wait for the character development you guys rnt ready fr this dumb series
What other medium do you think your story would work well as? (film, webcomic, animated series?)
I WOULD LOVE FR IT TO BE AN ANIMATED SERIES but also it as a film would rock.... yeahhhhh
Do you reread your old works? How do you feel about them?
my xmen ones, yeah. they’re really comforting for me. i feel like i wanna give my kid self a big big hug.
What’s the story idea you’ve had in your head for the longest?
probs the daemons au or the agents of shield / xmen crossover.. those both gave baby abbey a lot of fun hours.
Would you say your writing has changed over time?
yeah! ive gotten better i think
OKAY RAMBLE OVER THANKS RIV

“Home Again”: Ben Hardy Imagine: PS Reader: Military Reader
Tumblr media
Ben Hardy Imagine Ben Hardy x Reader Reader: PS Reader, Military Reader
(A/N:  So this request  is near and dear to my heart because my brother's in the army...and also currently deployed.  So it's little ping in my dark little heart.  Hope you enjoy!)
Imagine being on leave and surprising Ben...
The army was pretty much all you'd ever known.
Well, that's a lie.
It's what you'd known for quite some time but it was familiar to you anyway.
You had family who served and it seemed a natural fit for you.
You never realized how much you'd actually love it until you got into it.
You loved your country.
Regardless of who was 'running' it- you loved your country and the people in it.
And you loved being a soldier.
You'd served one term overseas and put more time in than you cared to admit on your home soil.
That's really how you met Ben.
Ben.
Just the thought of his name could make you sigh.
He was an actor- a damn good one- but more importantly he was the best person you knew.
And given your line of work- you'd met plenty of really good people.
But Ben- Ben was special.
You met during some down time for you.
Well, it was less down time and more just inactive.
You'd been back from your most recent deployment for about a year and a half and while your mother's construction business was good work- and you had a degree to get a job elsewhere....something just wasn't right.
And a buddy of yours knew this.
Suggested you run security for an upcoming movie his aunt was attatched to.
You landed the job easily and with good reason.  
Your unit was fucking sharp and you kept a tight ship.
Security was an easy one for you.
Did people think you were a bitch at first?
Yes, of course, because you weren't there to make friends.
You were there to keep everyone safe.
There was a reason your unit called you Stonewall.
You had nerves of steel and didn't give a fuck about pleasantries when it was time to get down to business.
Did Joe Mazzello make it his personal mission to befriend you?
Of fucking course he did.
Why?
Because the film you ran security on was Bohemian Rhapsody and that lanky bastard followed you around as much as possible.
You'd handed his ass to him on more than one occasion.
And it was there that you met Ben.
Such a sweet guy.
All blond hair and lovely light eyes and those impossibly beautiful lips of his.
Damn him for being so attractive.
And he was fucking sweet too which made it all the more worse.
If he'd just been an asshole you could've brushed him off.
You tried to more than once actually and his face flushed and he just kind moved away.
You felt awful and tracked him down...in like two seconds, lol.
You apologized and the two of you pretty much because inseperable since.
You were so close because no one had ever understood your schedule more than him and the same applied for him.
You both had to be away for long periods with sometimes unreasonable hours.
It was crazy.
But you actually wanted to be together and that was what mattered.
For Ben....the hardest thing was your latest deployment.
He tried so hard to keep it together as you stood in that airport together.
The reality is...no one knows if your moments together will be your last but with military....
Well, it's just a lot more real.
He cried so hard.
You didn't want to leave him.
He apologized and you kissed him so hard his knees locked up on him and he nearly fell.
Leaving him to get on that plane was the hardest thing you'd ever done before.
It was harder than leaving your family the first time.
It was harder than being in Iraq on the phone with your brother as his wife had their first baby.
It was the worst.
But nothing, not all the bad feelings, could even come close to feeling of love and adoration you had for him now.
Now, you stood just out of sight as he sat in a chair facing an interviewer.
She was a nice, young lady who was a part of the plan and was so patient with the whole ordeal.
She asked a few questions before she brought up the subject of a girlfiend.
"So, I gotta ask about your girlfiend." she said. "We've seen pictures of your occasionally and you two are just so adorable!"
You could barely contain your smile as you watched him figit and the tips of his ears go red.
"Yes, she's amazing." he said. "Love of my life."
"And she's in the military right?" she asked.
"Yeah." he said. "One of the strongest people I know.   I mean, I can't really talk about her job much you know.  That's all private.  You know how it is."
She nodded, "Of course.  I hear that she's deployed right now.  I'm sure that's tough. I know a lot of significant others of military members can sympathize."
"Yeah." he said running a hand over his face. "It's probably one of the most difficult things I've ever had to go through but I love her more than anything.  And she's so strong and brave and - she's just so smart.  I have no doubt in her ability to do anything. I mean, I worry, of course but she's honestly like a real life superhero."
"Oh! That's high praise coming from an Xmen!" she teased and he laughed warming your heart.
"I'll never live this down." he laughed and shook his head.  
"Oh, not proud of your xmen days?" she asked.
"No, no." he said. "I am.  And very grateful for the opportunity.  I just don't want to be forever remembered as the shirtless guy."
She nodded, "Well, I have one last question for you and then I promise I'll let you be."
Ben just nodded.
"If your girlfriend were here right now, what would you say to her?" she asked.
Ben blowed a sigh from between his lips.
"Oh, man.  I- well, I'd say a lot. I always do.  Poor girl probably thinks I never shut up when we get those chats together.  I'd tell her a I love her, I suppose.  She knows that though.  Actually, no- I'd tell her that I know she took my tshirt with her and that's she's a liar." he laughed.
"I damn well did not!" you defended and snatched the small curtain back before you could get ahold of yourself. "Joseph Mazzello took it for Cardy B!"
You watched as he tensed and then slowly turned around.
His eyes zoned in on you and you watched them water for a second.
"Babe?" he asked, softly.
"It was supposed to be more romantic than this." You offered with a small smile. "But you accused me of theft."
He bolted from the chair and snatched you into his arms.
He was already crying at this point and naturally- so were you.
That man had you fucking whipped sometimes.
The interviewer called for the cameras to be turned off to give you a bit of privacy and you sent her a thank you while she went to finish up in the other room.
" What?  When? Why?" Ben rambled.
"When?  I got off the plane this morning and drove straight here." You said. "And why?  We're home baby.  For a while.  Possibly...for good."
He damn near crushed you in a hug.
And then he glared at you with a look that could've melted your soul.
"Why the hell didn't you tell me?" he pressed.
"To be fair, I wasn't able to say anything until I was back on home soil." you said with a shrug.  "And seeing as how that was the case- I figured...I could do a little surprise.  I knew you were working.   I may have called your publicist."
He rolled his eyes.
"He helped me set everything up."  you said. "Which reminds me,  I need to take him out to lunch because he pulls off an unholy feat in like six hours.   Where is he?"
You turned to leave but Ben trapped you in his arms with a laugh.
"Baby, I haven't seen you in eleven months.  Do you honestly think I'll be releasing even one moment to anyone for like- at least a month?"
"Now, Benjamin." you scolded him.
"Whatever." he said pulling your lips to his. "I'll suffer the consequences, Captain."
"Drop and give me five." you teased.
"How about five orgasms, how about that?" he teased biting your ear.
"Ben!" you laughed as he wound you up in his arms again.
Whether you were New York or Japan or even France...home was in his arms.
And it was damn sure good to be home.
Heeeey, smoochies.  Excuse me why I go cry and be emotional because personal reasons. Waaaaahhhh!!!!!

i’m a tad more cohesive today....ok, well i’m conscious not really cognitive, but whatever. and the march previews dropped on the marvel comics app
so that Judgement thing is Avengers/men/Eternals, ok. i wasn’t sure about the third logo yesterday, thus why i cut my ramble there for comedy. but uh yeah...just has Avengers vs Xmen/Inhumans vs Xmen vibes to me right now, and those were just...yeah...
but the synopsis for Lives #5...Arkady is time traveling?? huh...ok...i was hoping for flashbacks, but sure...however, he’s time traveling to ruin things? *sigh* i was kinda hoping they were gonna try to keep him trying to be good, since one could argue the Dracula plot was him being manipulated (because really WHY would you let him stay on the island of stupid after you defeated drac knowing he was going to betray you? or was he in the Pit, and this tie travel bit is his escape from it? i could get on board with that...).and him traveling back makes circuit Wolvie?? um...hm...idk. i guess you could say i’m more intrigued now, but like with most of the island of stupid saga, it’s morbid curiosity, not excitement for something good that i’ll love and enjoy
(i wonder if Olinka will show up though, between the time travel and mentions of AIM in another spot...since we like reviving obscure chars these days...)
