One of the things that really drew me in when I first watched the animated X-Men show (around 2020-21) was the fact that none of th relationships they had, romantic or otherwise, looked like "traditional" relationships. The thing I really liked about Gambit and Rogue specifically was that they needed to find other ways to explore what intimacy meant for them.
Adding in Magneto to that dynamic adds in an interesting angle for Rogue. It's more possible for her to have that "normal"-looking relationship with Magneto - but at the end of the day, is that what she really wants?
idk I'm coming into the X-Men very late and I haven't read a lot of the comics. I've just seen the two big animated shows, a couple of the movies, and read the stuff with Exodus and Sinister so my grasp of these characters might not be as extensive as someone else's I just...I can relate to Rogue in that way. Because any relationship I have with someone isnt going to look or be "normal" and there is a part of me that wishes it could just because god would that make life so much simpler for me.
If Smith had water in his mouth he would have spat it out at the question, “No?!” he squawks in shock.
Nicky blinks, seemingly surprised by this answer.
“H-Have I done something that would make you think I have something against gay people?” he asks because whatever it was he needs to never do it again. Some of his Gran’s best friends were lesbians and his Gran had raised him better than to judge someone based on who they happened to love.
“Every time you see Neil and Andrew together you try and get as far away from them as possible as quickly as possible.” Nicky points out.
“That isn’t because they’re gay!” Smith insists because it’s not. Captain Neil and Andrew could be heterosexual and he’d still try to power walk away so he never has to hear what they want to do to one another. Hearing it makes him deeply uncomfortable and embarrassed.
There are things he does not need to know about his Captain.
you've heard of lemon getting character ideas from songs
now get ready for
lemon getting a character idea from two very specific parts of one song that somehow both drives them up a wall and scratches the itch in their brain just right
-Un día despertaste de un estado de coma, lo que significó que hubo un nuevo comienzo, donde se tuvo que volver a aprender muchas cosas para tratar de ser la versión más cercana a la que eras antes del suceso.
-Te sentiste como si hubieses despertado después de haber sufrido un accidente automovilístico, doliente por las heridas profundas en el cuerpo, las que hay que sanar.
PRESENTE
-Vivir con trauma significa vivir en un estado de modo automático, donde uno se encuentra totalmente desconectado de las emociones para volver a insertarse a la cotidianeidad...Ese vacío puede ser percibido en la mirada.
-Vivir en trauma es como estar en modo de supervivencia, donde se está a la defensiva y susceptible ante cualquier estímulo adverso que nos rodee, respondiendo muchas veces de manera exagerada, sin haberlo querido hacer.
-Estar traumatizado se siente como vivir en un claustro de autocastigos constantes, dado que se está acostumbrado a recibir malos tratos provenientes incluso, de las personas consideradas más importantes en nuestra vida.
-Al estar consciente del estado de trauma, uno se siente en el limbo, estancado y sin voz, pues las experiencias traumáticas han absorbido gran parte del tiempo y la esencia del ser.
FUTURO
-Es posible cambiar la mentalidad para así mismo vivir una nueva vida. Por lo que en primera instancia habría que armarse de voluntad para; dejar atrás todo evento traumático, o, habría que mirarlos,aceptarlos, perdonarnos y abrazarnos, para que en un futuro, si se llegase a presentar una situación similar, no volver a caer en eso.
Por supuesto que el autoamor autocuidado y la autocompasión serán factores primordiales que permitirán dar paso hacia nuestro nuevo camino.
When I did something right, this person, parent, okay? When I did something right, this person would be happy, and, then, when I did something…honestly, when I did nothing, or when I did something “bad,” this person would be very, very disappointed. So, from a young age, I put my self-esteem into a parental figure’s hands. And, once you leave the nest, at home, you’re still programmed to put your self worth in someone else’s hands.
So, if you’re a person that’s used to fixing things, it’s because somebody depended on you to fix them and now you see that as your role.
