#x-men:evolution

[kyoumb24]

I can’t get Wolverine’s costume from X-MEN:Evolution out of my head...This is sooooo great...🧡🖤

[phemiec]

some more WIP stuff from my timeskip x-men:evolution fancomic. (Or comics, rather, it’s taken on a mind of it’s own)

Ft. official turnaround reference sheet for the girls, plus a couple new faces. *casually sends Fred to therapy and gives him a smokin’ hot goth wife just to annoy Todd.*

(Blindspot and Thornn aren’t ocs by the way, there are no other ocs in the comic besides Hag and Mire, just forgotten marvel canon BoM members I’ve stolen and put my grubby hands on.) 👍

SCOGUE-Tember (2024)

Day “3”: Ship Bingo

They are EVERYTHING to me: I think I mentioned in last year’s Scogue-tember prompt list that Scott/Cyclops x Rogue/Anna Marie was the first couple I ever genuinely shipped at a young age (before that, it was mainly _insert random fav chara_ x oc in my head I made up just for them). And X-Men:Evolution was the first Marvel show I watched that made me genuinely interested in exploring the original comics to find more of Cyclops x Rogue (which to my surprise, never was a thing) and watch the movies. My love of comics and lore (especially the concept of the multiverse) is largely in part thanks to how X-Men:Evolution was such a great show and how strong the chemistry was between Scott x Rogue.

They drive me crazy insane/positive: The fact that my final art portfolio project was a mock-proposal of an X-Men:Evolution sequel + spin-off that consisted of them and their kids speaks for itself.

The aesthetic is impeccable: C’mon. Relatively Popular Preppy Guy x Loner Goth Girl? It’s so cliché, but it’s SO good!!! What makes it even better is that their personalities work so, SO well together. While this could have gone the route of the BST/Slap-Slap-Kiss/Uptight loves Wild that usually accompanies tropes similar to this, what I love is that this DOESN’T. Their personalities only clashed in the beginning because of the initial misunderstanding and frustration of them being on opposite sides, and even then they were drawn to each other. And even though Scott was distracted by his crush on Jean after the events of ‘The Cauldron - Pt. 1 & 2’, his moments of interacting and bonding with Rogue before and since then still spoke VOLUMES.

Relationship Goals: I think three of SCOGUE’s best characteristics are communication, understanding/empathy, and connection. Are they perfect? OBVIOUSLY not, but the episodes demonstrating these traits are still pretty significant. One of my favorite moments is during ‘On Angel’s Wings,’ when Scott is confiding to Rogue about his belief in angels or at least in the possibility of them existing. Rogue had laughed, had realized Scott meant what he said, recognized how insensitive she had unintentionally been, immediately and sincerely apologized, then listened to him with more compassion, while Scott immediately understood that she had not intended to make him feel awkward/embarrassed, silently forgave her, and continued to confide in her because he felt comfortable with her. This might have been a small thing compared to other moments they had, but it still stood out to me how close they felt to each other on that level.

I blorboed so hard that now they’re basically my OCs: IN MY DEFENSE, the multiverse is a thing, and since the actual series + the films and even the ‘92 animated series already took several liberties with the casts’ age range, relationships, dynamics, backgrounds, etc, I didn’t see the harm in altering/adding some things for my personal headcanon aus for SCOGUE (ex. Rogue’s biological parents, Scott’s relationship with the ladies vs 616!s, Rogue’s surprise connection with other Marvel characters and the eventual status of her relationship with her foster/adopted parents, Scott’s view on a personal life vs duty to the X-men, etc)

I need a 30k hurt/comfort fic on my desk by Monday: more specifically, I need to actually write or draw out the pages of 1) Scott’s and/or Rogue’s relationships with Jean and Remy starting to go in a direction neither of them are sure about and them confining in each other as friends; 2) Rogue meeting a dangerous mind-controlled mutant who can actually RESIST the negative effects of her powers and unwittingly holds the key to her actively learning about her past and the fate of her biological parents before she was ‘taken in’ by Mystique and Destiny while Scott accompanies her; 3) The trauma of Jean’s death and/or her eventual transformation into the Dark Phoenix + subsequent final/near-deaths of SCOGUE and everyone else involved; 4) SCOGUE dealing with the aftermath of the Dark Phoenix + their growing/rekindling/not-quite-smothered feelings for each other; 5) All the fun stuff involved with the struggles of finally getting together, staying together despite all odds, marriage, children!, and trying to balance marriage, family, and X-Men life…instead of, y’know, letting it remain in my head.

They’re going to be the death of me: I literally cannot find a way right now to work on any other personal projects alongside SCOGUE content until I find a good balance/am sufficiently satisfied with what I churn out (and/or until more people are able to be more inspired/have time to create more SCOGUE stuff too xD)

They kimss, they holde handsss,…: Yes. Yes they do. (Be it via gloves, the mutant suppression collar, or my most favorite being that over time, Rogue is able to successfully control her abilities gradually so that intimate contact between her and Scott —plus normal contact with others— can last more than 10 secs/min/hours/etc)

Layin' Down the Law~

Mun + Muse are 21+. Mun’s main blog is @sharing-a-muse and will follow my role play partners. I’m not super selective, just make sure you have a decent grasp of grammar and we’ll be fine! This blog is indie and OPEN - actively looking for other roleplayers with Marvel & DC Universe characters. Now for the RULES

* I am primarily basing this Rogue off of the original X-Men cartoon and now X-Men '97. However, I have watched all of X-Men:Evolution and have read the comics for years. So if you want to incorporate elements of these stories/verses into our story, just message me, and I'll let you know if that's something I can do. {However, I will say off the bat, I'm really not a fan of how they played Rogue in the movies.}

* Mun&Muse are SHIP friendly, A.U. friendly, and O.C friendly! * I don't do exclusives/mains. I am happy to roleplay with plenty of different versions of the same character and will treat each one as its own 'verse.

* PLEASE alert me if you have any triggers. Since Mun+Muse are of age, there will be NSFW content - be it drinking, smut, swearing, or violence. NSFW will be tagged accordingly.

* NSFW WILL ONLY BE WRITTEN WITH MUNs OVER 18! Since we have a diverse age range on Tumblr, smut will be tagged as ‘NSFW’ so that it can be blocked if needed. If you want NSFW with Rogue, you MUST have that you are over 18 in your bio/blog.

* Things I am NOT into - excessive violence, abuse of any sort, humiliation, non-con situations, and mind-break. No thank you!

* Hate of any kind will NOT be tolerated. Let’s have fun people!

And that's about it, sugah! Le'me know if you're lookin' to have some fun.

Mesmero Misunderstood (AO3)

Author rant on.

They're much-maligned, it would seem, at least in my fanfics on AO3, but there is a reason why I put so much love into my version of Mesmero.

A long time ago, I read a book, The Magician by W Somerset Maugham, about a character called Oliver Haddo. I thank Nick Edwards, one of a few friends of mine from college days who's still with us, for getting me a copy of that book.

Haddo was a thinly-veiled parody of Aleister Crowley.

I remember a scene where Haddo wandered into a salon, and basically everybody there - who, just a moment ago, had been trying to outpose one another - started telling him to read the room and yelling at him that he wasn't welcome there.

They ridiculed his ambition to be a magician. They cast aspersions about his drug use, his bisexuality (which was illegal in the UK at the time), and his beliefs (which came from Buddhism, Taoism, and Hinduism, unheard-of in Western societies at the time).

The author was writing about Haddo, but he was screaming out his vitriol towards Crowley on the page.

Maugham wasn't the only one to take the piss out of Crowley. Aleister was "Mocata" in Dennis Wheatley's The Devil Rides Out (don't bother reading it - the racism just stinks), and "Karswell" in M R James' Casting The Runes which got turned into Night Of The Demon, a 1957 British horror film.

Oh, and the great poet W B Yeats commemorated Crowley with a scathing sonnet. Nah, just kidding, he threw Crowley down a set of stairs. How erudite.

That Maugham salon scene stuck in my head, a lot.

Which is where Mesmero came in, as a character.

The first Marvel Rare Pair challenge in 2022 invited me to write about pairings of Marvel characters whom nobody had yet paired before. The creation of my AU version of the X-Men:Evolution character Mesmero seemed the perfect opportunity to explore some truly rare pairings. But what was more, it gave me the opportunity to do something else.

I wanted to explore what it was like to be a mutant, shunned by other mutants.

I wanted to hold up a mirror to the general mutant community: you can't call yourselves the victim of hate if you yourselves hate others.

And inside the frail, diminutive body of this fictional Mesmero, I inserted myself.

The Mesmero you have been reading about in my AO3 stories are all elements of my personality. If Mesmero seems to have a thing for tall blondes, it could well be that that is something in me speaking. I'm apparently 155 cm tall, which makes me shorter than Wolverine - thus Mesmero is exactly the same height as me.

I've received some comments to my AO3 fic about Mesmero, and they have actually been hurtful. And they have come from people who support Loki. As in "God of Mischief" Loki.

This one comment stung so fucking hard.

Hopefully for Mesmero's sake, they stick to their garden and helping the people who go to them asking for help instead of seeking it out and "convincing" others they need their "help" when they haven't.

How "GO HOME TO WHERE YOU FUCKING CAME FROM" is that?

Anyway, I have a multi-part Mesmero story brewing. But you know what, I think I'll stay off AO3 altogether for a while. I don't really care much for comments like that, so I'm tempted to gather all my Mesmero stories and delete them from AO3, put them into a novel, post them to Substack or Bluesky, and stop writing Marvel and MCU stuff. Concentrate on my original characters, my fave settings, and maybe start up a Blogger blog to put them onto, also.

Don't tell my characters to go home. Don't tell them to stay in the garden or else. Don't tell my characters that they take without consent.

Don't project onto Mesmero. You've been hurting me.

Damn...Wanda and Rouge in X-Men:Evolution did stuff to me as a kid. Thanks for re-awakening that!

A lot of folks seem to be confused on what color Rogue's hair is lately, hope this helps! : Rogue (reddit.com)

This is weirdly cute? Like those adoption posts for cats/dogs/whatever that are in first person.

I always thought Evo Rogue's hair was an odd brown that leaned heavily into red, almost some kind of orange (I sucessfully recreated it, color and all, in Dreams for PS4. I'm Silversweet85 on there.)

I always thought they didn't match Rogue and Gambit's brunette hair for the small budget TAS had, so they were forced to make it more reddish than true brown. They should've looked more like here, hair color-wise:

Very infuriating for me because I don't like redheaded men usually, and I've always identified Rogue as a brunette, like me. Maybe an auburn brunette if I really have to accept it.

I guess X-Men 97 will stick with the same palette for consistency??

[gambitimagines]

Looking to get your Gambit fix? Like X-Men:Evolution? Open to OCs in their own narrative? Did you know I write fan fics? Enjoy...? :)

[abisalli]

can we please talk about the fact that Steve Rogers and S.H.I.E.L.D. are in the fucking X-Men:Evolution universe???  Does that mean the other heroes also exist? Is Iron-Man in this universe? Is Carol in this universe?? Is Spider-Man in this universe???? Why does this never get mentioned again? Why is it that that whole episode of Logan talking about Steve so fruity???  I NEED ANSWERS

Even in a fraking Alternate Universe Hunger Games, Wolverine is top dog. Life is unfair!!

Also he killed Gambit (They were, I kid you not, the last two standing. You'd think the generator KNEW who they were. Freaky!) so double unfair.

Jean killed Molly, so...yah. (Molly didn't last a day. Way to go, loser.)

All you anti-Romy fans will be pleased to know Gambit stabbed Rogue in the back.

Others died by various means/mutants. I didn't catch how Cyclops and Kurt died. Gambit or Rogue might've killed Shadowcat, I'm not sure. Or did she fall in a pit? Hmm.

Anyway, that was fun. Will have to play again sometime. Was only made aware of it because of this video, so thanks goes to them.
