Sam Wilson, Thor, Bucky Barnes, Namorita, Gamora. Scarlet Witch. Shuri. Black Panther. Whichever of these you want to talk about, have at it. Good day.

I’ll do three of these characters and if you really want me to talk about the others just ask me again. I do only three because I tend to ramble sometimes (partially because I can’t decide on one thing for certain questions) and I’ll stretch this to infinity if I do all of them.

Sam Wilson

First impression: I think it was when I was reading older Captain America comics and I got to his first appearance and I vaguely knew he was Cap's partner in the comics at that point. I remember thinking that I liked his power since I love birds and Sam talks to birds, I also liked his chemistry with Steve.

Impression now: He is one of my favorite Cap characters, I really love him and I think a Captain America isn't Captain America without him. Like I consider him essential to the Cap mythos. I love the Gruenwald and Roger Stern runs but my major gripe about those runs is that Sam is barely in them.

Favorite moment: Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #8-9 AKA the first time Sam became Captain America. I also liked his Generations story with Steve.

Idea for a story: Something that deals with Sam's telepathy and how powerful it is and maybe the fact that it can also extend to other animals, creatures, and aliens that are related to birds (Since the Shi’ar are part birds would his telepathy work on them?). Other than that I guess I would like more stuff with Sam's family.

Unpopular opinion: I don't know if this is unpopular but I liked the Remender Sam Cap run. Probably waaay more than his run with Steve.

Favorite relationship: Sam and Steve obviously is number one, I'm pretty much convinced they're married. I also like Sam's relationship with Sharon, Bucky, Joaquin, and Misty. I pretty much like Sam with a lot of characters although I guess I didn't really care much for his relationship with Jane since that really came out of nowhere and I don't think they ever broke up or anything.

Favorite headcanon: He's worthy of Mjolnir but he just doesn't care to find out. Sam has anxiety and Redwing helps him deal with it. Geese are some of the bird species he doesn't particularly like to talk to because they're major assholes. Crows are some of his favorite because of their ingenuity and how well informed they are (he will get information from them when he's on a stakeout). He knows Steve will do anything for him and sometimes he'll take advantage of that for the most mundane stuff (like getting a glass of milk from him, getting Steve to cook for him, or if Steve is going to an event where he can only bring a +1 Sam gets to be his plus if he wants too). He doesn't really like to call Bucky James because the name reminds him of his nephew James Wilson. Because Bruce Banner refused to give his blood to James Wilson when he was dying (he didn't want to create another Hulk) Sam doesn't exactly see eye to eye with him. Sam has trouble sleeping because he's a light sleeper (he didn't live in a good area while growing up and had to always be alert) and he likes to wake up early.

Black Panther

First impression: First time I saw him was in the Fantastic Four cartoon when I was a kid and I remember thinking he was like a cat version of Batman. He manages to beat the F4 easily if I recall and I thought that was badass.

Impression now: I like T'Challa, I binge read his comics up until the Intergalactic Empire of Wakanda (which I still have to finish).

Favorite moment: When he beats the KKK in McGregor's run that was such a powerful moment. Panther's Quest, his fight with Killmonger in Priest's run.

Idea for a story: I would like Al Ewing to do more stuff with T'Challa, I liked how Ewing handled him in Ultimates. I haven't finished Coates' Intergalactic Empire of Wakanda but what I read I thought was interesting. I guess I want more BP cosmic stuff, the TLA tie-in comic was good too.

Unpopular opinion: I really didn't get that much into Hudlin's Black Panther run.

Favorite relationship: T'Challa and Steve Rogers, T'Challa and his family (Ramonda, Shuri, and yes even Hunter), I enjoyed his big brother type of relationship with Asira AKA Queen Divine Justice. His friendship with Everett Ross in the comics (which I kind of miss). His frenemy relationship with Namor is kind of interesting too.

Favorite headcanon: T'challa exudes confidence and coolness but I imagine he internally freaks out about some things but he's just THAT good at hiding it. He is a bit of a momma's boy. He is angry about Hunter being such a difficult asshole because part of him really wanted to have a normal sibling relationship with him (he might have bonded with Thor over that at some point when Loki was still evil). There are moments he wishes he wasn't King of Wakanda because the responsibility is that great and he wishes to have more freedom. He's very much a tea kind of guy.

Thor

First impression: He popped up in some of the Marvel cartoons that I saw and I just thought he talked funny and like most of the Avengers back then I was vaguely aware of him.

Impression now: I love Thor, I went and did a deep dive of all his comics and he’s a character I really love.

Favorite moment: Various moments from the Walt Simonson run. Like his talk with Jorgumandr before they fought was interesting. How after he literally became a puddle of ashes from how many times the Destroyer kept zapping him trying to kill him(he was unable to die because of a curse from Hela) his spirit jumps into the Destroyer, he goes to Hela's Domain and harasses her until she lifts the curse and returns him to normal. The scene from Thor: Heaven and Earth were he reads a dying Catholic Priest his last rites. Every time he earthbends or shows he's Gaea's son is a pretty cool scene.

Idea for a story: A story were Thor meets his mom's side of the family and acknowledges them as family. Like Gaea is the Earth Goddess in every pantheon and pretty much gave birth to almost every God and Goddess on Earth and is related to them (this would makes Zeus Thor’s nephew and the Hawaiian Goddess Pele his half-sister). I still wonder why no one has made that story (lets face it the whole Phoenix thing? It's going to get retconned).

Unpopular opinion: While Donald Blake isn't necessary for Thor's story now I feel that making him into a different person and not Thor takes a lot of Thor's character and kind takes away an important part of Thor. Mainly the idea that when given a new clean slate in life and being reborn as a mortal, Thor chooses to become a healer. If Blake is a fake person that Odin made (and ugh the whole thing is convoluted now because of it) and Thor never did anything it makes no sense. But the way I see it Odin lied about making Blake out of nothing and he just separated Thor's mortal side from him as a way to take Thor's attachment to Earth. it would explain why Blake is acting the way he is and why Thor has been written as such a jerk lately. I also don’t care for the angry violent Viking portrayal that some writers do with him.

Favorite relationship: Thor and Loki, because the most interesting and complex relationship both of those characters have is with each other (I have a tag for them). I also like Thor's relationship with Steve Rogers who is his favorite mortal alongside Jane. I also like Thor's relationship with Balder (who is also his brother and needs to come back), Sif, and the Warriors Three. I also loooooove Thor and Beta Ray Bill.

Favorite headcanon: I think Thor likes to read books and has some of his own geeky interests that stayed with him from the time he was living as Don.

Some more commissions from Hal-Con, featuring some other Xavier’s Gifted Youngsters characters of mine and a friend. We’re in the home stretch now, just one update after this one! The artists are, in order;

@doncocor - NSFW (and did the last picture too!)

@astrangecicada

@kindaw

@ericameschwitz

@webbot15art

@nurrodraws

@karibuillustrations

@hijinxx

B-Girl 13

And if you wanna learn more about each character, you can just read more below.

First up is the gal with the glasses, Jezabelle Sherlock. She’s a bit of a geeky gal who has the power to make copies of herself which she controls telepathically. She also spent most of her teenaged life living on Genosha, and has one or two secrets for now. She goes by the codename Crowd.

Next up is Victor Freud, a simple Canadian farmboy whose power is that he can shrink himself and others / objects. Which some folks would consider a kind of crappy power so that’s why he dresses more seriously. He goes by the codename Slight (or Sleight, because sneaky).

And now the next characters belong to my friend CJ Heth, and include;

Basil Benson (drawn by Sab), a well-off Englishman who is very dapper and handsome, but is usually invisible. Oh and he dates the pink googirl Colette from yesterday’s post.

And Chisaki Watanabe, a Japanese girl who is very much into pastel lolita fashion and has the power of terrakinetics - or Earthbending to you nerds.

If any of you enjoy freeform roleplay and like the idea of making your own college-aged X-men, hit me up and I’ll see if I can get you into the Discord where you can learn more.

Roleplay with the-geeky-earthbender

Dara was standing outside of the gentlemens club where she worked. It was early evening and she stop. Dressed in a some what provakive fire nation outfit of a small bandaeu top and long fire nation skirt. in shakes of red and gold. Her hair was down and wavy and she stood smokeing a cig. When she saw Chikko. "Chikko! What are you doing in this side of town?

[firebender--mako-blog]

Her face flushes and she shakes her head. "W-Wha? N-No, I c-can't possibly do that! I d-don't have any way of p-paying you back and..I don't w-want to be any more of a burden th-than I already am..." She mutters the last bit, looking down and clasping her hands together. Chikko didn't even bother to fix her hair, knowing it would only get messed up again.

Mako sheepishly rubbed the back of his head, "I- you won't be a bother," he said finally, knowing he was the last one to come to for comfort. But he really didn't see Chikko that way, and he knew Bolin wouldn't either. She was a nice girl with a lot to give. "You'd just have to sleep on the couch, if that's oka.." he paused, his face reddening in embarrassment. He knew about Chikko and her life and he almost felt like a jerk for saying that. Some nights, she'd probably do anything for a plain old "couch" to sleep on and here he was acting like it was a last resort. "Uh.. c-can you cook any?" he asked suddenly, changing the subject, "if so, how about this- we let you stay the night and you cook breakfast in the morning?" Finally, he looked back towards Chikko again. Maybe, this would make it easier for her to say yes, because he did understand not wanting to intrude on somebody when you had nothing to repay them with. He'd felt that way many of times. But then again, he didn't know if the younger had even an inkling of skill in the kitchen.

Wonder if she’s that shy in bed.

Error: Technical Difficulties

I guess this is just more for the tumblr people who actually talk to me. I am posting this from the computer at school, where I can actually friggen type. Having some sorta issue with my keyboard and/or mouse, which makes it nigh impossible to accomplish anything. Hoping it's just a minor firmware glitch that I can fix easily, but I probably won't be around really until it is fixed. Or, I might have skype running, but not be able to answer you because attempting to do so will make me perform a motherfucking acrobatic pirouette off the handle because that is how difficult doing anything is with it, right now. So I shall update here when all is well...or to say it's not.

[firebender--mako-blog]

She rubs the hand that he gripped so forcefully, her eyes skimming over the jade bangles she wore. "I ch-chose to be homeless, M-Mako." Chikko sighs heavily. "My f-family is actually...v-very wealthy. But m-my mother passed a-away and my f-father began drinking. He t-tried to kill me and he b-blamed me for her death. S-So...I ran aw-way." The earthbender looks up at him, frowning. "P-Please don't be angry a-anymore."

Mako felt his hands clench into fists at his side. His jaw became tight and his bottom lip nearly bled from the way his upper teeth dug into it. What was she thinking saying that? That wasn't a choice, she didn't choose to be homeless, that was a last resort for her, which was totally different and he wanted her to realize that. "Chikko, you had no choice but to get away from there," he started, gazing into her eyes and searching for some sort of sense. He could tell she wasn't dumb, but she was dense, that much was true. "No matter what forced you to live this life, the important thing is you're living it," the wind picked up around them and if Chikko's hair was messy before, it was even worse now. "People can't say some homeless people have it worse off than others, that's.. that's not true. You can say this was your choice a hundred times, but I won't believe you. Something forced you to go this path, it wasn't a choice. And if you think it is.. you're wrong and just can't see that yet. Nobody would choose this life unless they had too."

[freedomsoutcast-archive-blog]

"No, I don't think so. Just a cold. The usual, runny nose and all that. Is it just me or is it super hot in here?"

"It's just you."

"You get any herbs for that or are you just gonna sweat it out?"

[rosy-earthbender]

m!a: Chikko is now horny for 2 hours!

((Oh baby~))

"W-What!? Oh n-"

*POOF!!*

Chikko pulls at the collar of her shirt, her body heat suddenly shooting up to an unfathomable temperature. She begins wriggling around, clamping her legs shut and biting down on her bottom lip in an attempt to keep herself from touching herself anywhere.

"D-Did it...s-suddenly get hot in h-here...?" She gulps, her face flushed.
