At this point Romy is a fetish.

Nothing sweet or romantic about their relationship. It’s just petty for the sake of being petty to keep them together after all the years of trauma, humiliation and backstabbing. At no point in canon 616 timeline have they been good for each other and somehow the romy writers emphasis that more than the ones who hate either of the pair. They’ve been stripped of everything that made them unique and lovable to fans to beat people to death with this ship that couldn’t be clearer as the very definition of unhealthy relationships. Their best writing was when they were done with each other and it was pretty respectfully done considering how it ended during the mutant team avengers issue. You cannot build a healthy relationship without trust or respect, neither of which has been genuinely present in any interaction between Rogue and Gambit. They are the kind of relationship you have early on in your life, when everything is in upheaval and you throw yourself into something just to forget the pain and heartache you’re going through only to find you’ve dug yourself into a deeper hole of misery and despair. It’s meant to end. It’s supposed to be learning and letting go so you can blossom into something better and healthier. Marrying them was cheap and hollow like all of the writing for the pair has been from the very beginning.

Another thing that is really tiresome is the ship obsessives calling other fans and writers groomers and such when that part of their ship is doing good elsewhere. Rogue has NEVER been groomed by Magneto, look up the definition before spouting nonsense. He was never her mentor/teacher or held an authoritative position over Rogue and she he always been an adult when they are together, there is significant age gap yes, that doesn’t instantly make it grooming. I don’t even ship them, I’m hardcore Rogue should be a lesbian but it’s so insulting to read when the actual abusive ship is the one you are all going psychotic over. Rogue and Gambit have done nothing but emotionally, mentally and at times physically abused one another. No genuine communication, no respect for boundaries, pure jealousy and lust. Their canon drama is too prominent to pretend they work and it’s an insult to the characters to undermine their struggles to make them a goofy mess. It’s not even fanon. Fanon is based on canon content, you are all living in ao3 world for romy. The ship fans have monopolised the characters and made them into a fanfiction nightmare in the comics and the fandom space for so long it’s burnout to even try and have an opinion on either character because you get jumped on by a bunch of rabid animals who are loud and wrong for no good reason. Reducing them to a sex trope is unusual behaviour and the way that part of the fandom treats the characters is a disgrace. I hope x-office grows a spine and switches it up to give these characters their personalities and individuality back so we can have some decent writing for them again.

fandom loves to take things that should stay as jokes and turn them into characterization

Maybe if people updated more we wouldn't turn to ai

You’re a pathetic, impatient loser. Fanfic writers owe you nothing, and their writing is their own, not yours to do with as you choose, you entitled brat.
