I'll never not enjoy when Logan burns Emma.

[thatawkwardmoth]

Emma and Scott both having shitty parents (not Katherine Summers, I'm never talking shit about her) is just another reason they make a good couple.

Let me explain:

Scott is raised military before he's even a soldier for Xavier. It's little things that show it but, as someone who's dad was raised by a military man, sometimes it's hard for parents to leave the army for Base only. Scott, in the meager amount of scenes we get of his childhood, has almost the same mindest of Dean Winchester in a way. His father gives an order, he might protest but eventually, he always complies. Number one example being the plane crash and the one parachute thing. But also that he spends so much time worrying over Alex. Even after being forced to forget about him, he still remembers parts of him. And yes, it is because that's his little brother and he loves him so much. But it could also be because the phrases: 'look out for your brother', 'Keep your brother safe', 'Watch out for Alex', have been said to him since the day he met Alex in the hospital, newborn and fragile enough that Scott, even at two years old, knew not to be rough.

And it doesn't change, even on the Krakoa arc, he is angry over Alex being placed on Sinister's team. (And sinister referring to the brothers as 'his boys' gives me the ick. They Not Like Us vibes from his character in general when it comes to the Summers brothers…) He can't take care of Alex, make sure he's safe and sound, if he's on the same team as the guy who experimented on a preteen Scott for funsies and genetic testing.

Now, Katherine Summers, we don't have a lot of comics with her. But she's shown as the perfect mother figure, raising two rowdy boys mostly on her own with how busy Christopher is. And Scott and Alex remember her fondly. So no fault to her. But Christopher fucking Summers, every fault to him.

I'm not demonizing him, I need that known. I'm not saying that he's the next John Winchester (because at least he came back to check on his kids, unlike Corsair), I'm just saying that he raised Scott to be the perfect solider for Xavier and the perfect experiment for Sinister. Because he followed orders and he didn't argue back to adults (eventually he did, but you get the point).

Scott has so much unpacked trauma from his childhood and that small series where deplaced Scott is with Corsair doesn't really cover any of it. Neither do modern comics.

Emma, on the other hand, was raised in high society. Has always known the rich life and the challenges and difficulties that come with it. Mainly, her father's goals for her and her mother's long broken soul.

She grew up trying to be the perfect daughter despite being the black sheep. She couldn't meet his goals and faced his wrath for having dreams about being a teacher. His rage followed her into training the Hellions and it led to their deaths.

Now, it's not just her father's temper that is the reason she's got shitty parents. He's a cheater, a manipulator and discards his children like broken toys when they don't follow his strict guidelines of life, ex. Chrisitan being a drug addict, the older sister doing modeling, his younger being more goth and alternative for 'attention' as Emma puts it. Leaving him to pick Emma to continue his company because she's like him, a fact he learns after she blackmails and exposes his affair to his wife. He's willing to let Emma be given a pass on things purely because of his money and only stops her from hooking up with her teacher because it's not who he wants her with. No mind to the fact that he's an adult and she was a child. I hate the teacher thing. Can we tell?

He's a shit father but Hazel Frost is not exempt from my shit talking. She is not Katherine Summers. She's absent most of the time. Being the perfect socialite wife. She doesn't have a life outside of her husband's money and the parties she throws (more garden parties, not Tony Stark rager parties). She cares about her children, yes. But the tiniest amount. She can't bring herself to be there for them when they're going through difficult times. She's been broken by the expectations on her, to be the traditional wife, that she can't be bothered when the affair is revealed to her. It's heartbreaking and it makes me sad but it doesn't excuse the way she ignored her son's drug habit or her daughter's crisis with new powers and bullies at school.

Now Jean Grey has shitty parents but only after she is revealed to be a mutant to them. They sent her to Xavier's school to help her through the grief of her friend's accident and the issues she'd been having recently, not because anyone told them about her mutation. Now them rejecting her did hurt and they played a giant part in her turning into Dark Phoniex. But that happened when she was an adult. For her formative years as a child, they were present and lovely. Even as a teenager, it's shown that she calls them and writes letters and visits them on holidays. So, as much as I am a Jott and Scemma shipper alike, she can't relate to Scott's trauma and parent issues until she herself is burned and abandoned by her own. Emma, on the hand, can. She's had a shitty dad and Scott's had two and one creep that is obessed with him. She's had to mature faster because of her father not paying her ransom and making her rescue herself and decide to run away. Scott can relate to her running away, seeing as it is his favorite thing to do. Ex, the orphanage, Xavier's, Alaska, so on and so on.

Emma has even lost loves before! She was geuinely in love with the guy waiter from the comic series about her life. Was distraught when he died. She's been scorned by lovers before as well. Her teacher that she had a crush on and sabatoged a few friendships in college for (stupid plotline. stupid. stupid.) eventually reveals that he hates mutants and sees them as freaks, making Emma leave him and never look back (finally, my girl was free).

Jean hasn't. She's never lost Scott except when he cheated. She's never had to grieve him or bury him as many times as he has had to for her. Even Madelyne, who scorned Scott for reasons purely blamed on the absolute worst comic book misunderstanding and miscommunication ever, has never related to Scott on those levels. Emma has buried him and been scorned by him and still loves him, is the one he trusts with his resurrections in the Arbor Magna. It really speaks volumes.

And I'm not pitting the two ships against each other. I'm not. I'm pointing out the differences in the way they can relate to each others' pasts.

I like this moment a lot ("I am the retribution you've avoided your entire miserable life" is an awesome line) but it is really interesting as a portrayal of Charles. He's much more aggressive, almost impulsive. He feels very young here to me, which I think is curious. Like... in what world did he think Scott wouldn't be freaked out after seeing him liquidise the brains of these guys! They might be abusive criminals to Scott, but that's still a terrifying thing for a 15 year old (?) to observe. It's so funny how bad he is interacting with the O5 in this comic.

🖤: Which character is not as morally good as people seem to think?

(Hope I'm doing this right 🙏. I've never done this before.)

🖤: Which character is not as morally good as people seem to think?

Hmmmmmmmmmm this is a tough one cause I have to think in context of fans just making characters who are evil into woobies or characters where the narrative says they're good people but aren't.

Like, off the top of my head there's Mew from Only Friends who's positioned in narrative as the moral center of the show and the one "in the right" at the end but I find to be a thorough self righteous hypocrite.

Then there's characters like MCU Tony Stark, whom in the narrative is positioned as flawless just sad but justified in his sadness and decisions. MCU Tony fans make it out like he's had the hardest life of any mcu character (ridiculous also a silly metric to even judge characters imo). The meta that proposited Tony was the "most female coded char in the mcu" as well as suggesting Bucky & Steve sexually assaulted Tony metaphorically in Civil War is an example of this imo

I don't fully put blame on fans b/c narratively the mcu is all over the damn place, and it's pretty clear in a Doyalist pov both Disney and probably RDJ didn't want Tony to look "bad". Which is why Civil War is so lopsided towards Tony's pov and why the narrative twists itself to not acknowledge the inherent hypocrisy of Tony being scolded for a child dying in AOU whilst also recruiting a different child (Peter) into a super battle.

I can't fully blame this in a Wastonian way on Tony because the reason Peter is in Civil War at all exists outside of the narrative - Disney got the rights to Spiderman and wanted to introduce and integrate him into the MCU as quickly as possible.

The idea of putting people in supermax prisons and taking away their human rights is also one that the mcu isn't actually equipped to handle, which is another reason the narrative is so lopsided towards Tony and his "side". It's trying to both sides a human rights topic without making it a human rights topic.

This is why I also think that 616!Steve isn't as moral as made out to be at times specifically because of Avengers vs X-Men. Like, Steve and the Avengers are great at dealing with like, normal superhero problems, but they really suck at dealing with mutant problems. They've struggled with connecting the two and being allies when the X-Men have needed it. This is also an outside issue because of the different editorial dept heads, and the difficulty in combining the two franchises into a cohesive singular story. Also that a bunch of white guys don't fully understand the concepts of systemic discrimination.

So Avengers vs X-Men really showcases the holes in this divide especially where Scott and Steve are concerned. It's a frustrating event and only serves to make the Avengers look self-righteous and hypocritical rather than morally in the right.

Like, no offense but Scott is right, Steve and the Avengers can't just show up on mutant island and demand to take one of their own into their custody what the fuck? Y'all can't roll up to someone's house like a bunch'a cops and be like "no we don't need a search warrant give us the child for the good of the world".

But this is really why whether in the MCU or the comics (including other cape comics like the DCU) you can't like, expect radical politics. At best you may get like, liberal politics, but both are corporate owned and as such are subjected to corporate interests. Avengers vs Xmen and hell, Civil War the movie are both examples of this imo

So, ironically, I find both MCU!Tony and 616!Steve less "morally good" than fans make out.

Disclaimer however neither are "evil" either. I don't think MCU!Tony is evil~~ don't harass me fuckin hell.

The idea that characters are either wholly "good" or "evil" is kids cartoons stuff and I never watched Steven Universe alright?

Other characters off the top of my head include Stiles from Teen Wolf (pack mom my whole ass), Kikyo from Inuyasha (the rant in my soul about this lmao), Yusuke from Yu Yu Hakusho, WWX from MDZS, pretty much any Greek characters and that's all I can think of off the top of my head lol

⸻ 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉: charles xavier; penned by @arkhospheleteon ⸻ 𝒘𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆: krakoa, the quiet council chambers

━⊱ scott summers emerged from the portal into krakoa’s vibrant air, the faint buzz of human arrogance still clinging to him. his stride was firm, boots pressing into the living floor, the red visor slicing through the island’s glow — a silent vow to krakoa’s defiance. he’d just brushed up against the avengers’ world — not a fistfight, but a sharp exchange with one of their liaisons, some suit parroting stark’s tech-jargon and rogers’ platitudes about “coexistence”. scott had cut it short: krakoa didn’t need their blessing, and he wasn’t there to beg.

the chamber doors slid open, and he caught erik lehnsherr mid-step, rising from his seat, helmet in hand. his silver hair glinted as he turned from charles, their low voices fading — a private talk just wrapped. erik’s eyes flicked to scott, a brief, piercing jolt that lingered too long, before he brushed past with that quiet, commanding stride, the doors sealing behind him. the room settled, leaving only professor x at the table.

charles stood at the head of the chamber, the sleek cerebro helmet crowning his head, its metallic curve framing his face without veiling it. his hands were clasped behind his back, posture tall and renewed, his eyes — sharp and unguarded — locking onto scott with that steady, visionary calm that anchored them all. the space hummed — krakoa’s dream alive between its architect and its shield.

scott stopped before the table, shoulders squared. ❝ ran into one of the avengers’ errand boys. ❞ he said, voice clipped and controlled. ❝ same old noise. ‘concerns’, ‘dialogue’. i told them krakoa’s not their sandbox. they’ll figure it out or they won’t. ❞ his tone was flat, dismissing the encounter like a spent round.

he faced professor x, his image sharp in the helmet’s visor. ❝ the other nations... what’s their status? are they ready to acknowledge us, professor? ❞ the question was precise, a soldier’s check-in, carrying faith in charles’ plan and a readiness to move.

I would like to thank this tweet for some MASSIVE Validation!

THANK YOU FOR THE LOGAN JEAN SCOTT EMMA POLYCULE VALIDATION!

Okay bear with me, Jean and Scott are absolutely a thing but Jean’s also got a thing going on with Logan and there’s also that whole period of time of Scott with Emma, aight? Now consider we add a lil spice to Logan & Scott and Jean & Emma’s whole rivalry situation, okay? I think it’d work.

However, I don’t see Emma and Logan being anything more than friends. Yes, they both share a dumb jock bf and a manic pixie dream gf, and they’re very committed to the relationship, but I don’t think they’d be very committed to each other, ya dig? I’m seeing them on the Manor’s patio playing cards and junk

Anyway! I’m glad to see some art out there that shows that Scott’s heart belongs to 3 people thank you for coming to my TedTalk

Contextual note: I’ve always been a fan of Jean and Emma ditching fuckass Scott having a lil coparenting thing with Madelyne and their collection of children cuz I think it’d work. This greater polycule idea just sort of grew off of this idea cuz I think they’d all work together if they just expanded their horizons a bit
