Worlds going to shit, anyone have any Logan fic recs?

[trenchcoathunnybee08]

Ok, MCU/ “sacred timeline” compliant AU where the X-Men exist except they don’t have their abilities/ weren’t born with them. Instead the institute is a school for the underprivileged and disabled.

I would like to say here I’m not personally disabled so if I say something wrong let me know. This is purely off of different disabilities that I know about but I haven’t done in-depth research. This is for vibes and an interesting AU idea I had. I mean absolutely no offense by this so if I say something wrong if if I am being offensive I’ll take the post down.

The Professor started the institute to help low income, underprivileged, and disabled children get the education and access to healthcare that they deserve.

It has become a well respected institution renowned for its cutting edge medical research and care. The institute represents access to education for all. Not only do they except students with disabilities but look for bright students who don’t have the means of attending ivy leagues schools despite the fact they have a mind worth doing so.

Hank was a world class scientist with a master’s in evolutionary science and Biology. He taught AP bio at the institute for several years before he got his master’s and continued to teach after while working on getting a master’s in anthropology.

Jean gets chronic migraines from an undiagnosed condition that the institute has been trying to help her get diagnosed. Scott started calling her the Phoenix because of her red hair when they met but after they got together he called her Phoenix because of how strong he thinks she is.

Kurt was born with a facial disfigurement that doesn’t harm his physical health but it’s very obvious to other people by just looking at him. In place of being judged for his blue fur he’s judged for his disfigurement.

Jubile has a form of blindness that fills her vision with bright flashes of colors almost like fireworks. She was offered a full scholarship to the institute because of her artistic abilities.

Warren has a form of muscular dystrophy. He wasn’t diagnosed with it till he was 6 and became wheelchair dependent by 14. His father sent him to the institute hoping they would be able to help him with his condition as it is deadly and gives him a life expectancy of 30-40. As a kid Warren had the dream of becoming a pilot.

Logan comes to them with rapidly progressing joint degeneration and severe amnesia. He’s a former army/ special forces vet who was honorably discharged after an “accident” that left him with the amnesia and caused him to develop the joint degeneration.

Now some of them still have their powers because their stories are just so integral to who they are as people in the multiverse. Their powers are kind of like their canon events and i genuinely can’t imagine them without their powers.

Scott fully develops his powers from the plane crash when he was a kid. With his parents dead and him and his brother orphaned they had no way of getting possible treatment for Scott’s “condition”. In the end Scott spent years virtually completely blind as to prevent anyone from getting hurt because of him. Charles comes to him saying they believe they can help and they want him and his brother to begin attending the school. They help Scott see again by giving him aids to help control his powers and they give him a home.

Logan has reincarnated through several lifetimes and before the amnesia he remembered them all. This would be the replacement to his healing factor/ near immortality. While he was in the Canadian army/ special forces a mission goes wrong and he gets captured eventually leading him to the weapon X program. Thing is without his healing factor and claws there was nothing they could do to keep his body from degrading. They surgically implanted the claws and gave him a form of a super serum to help his body support what they did but it wasn’t enough. He revived an honorable discharge once he escapes and special forces finds out he’s alive. He ends up at the institute after getting into a fight at a bar where Jean and Scott were and they can see just how much pain he’s in. It’s there that he finally gets the help he needs and hope of finally regaining his memories.

Magneto / Eric still has his powers but instead of being a Mutant they are a result of experimentation from when he was in the concentration camps as a kid. He was given the same serum Bucky was and it slowed his aging. A second experiment gave him his metal manipulation. He met Charles years before the institute and had originally planned to run it with him till they had a falling out. Eric ended up moving to Sokovia where he had Wanda and Pietro. He was killed in the bombing when they were kids.

Charles developed his own powers at the same time as Jean. An attempt to help Jean with her condition went horribly wrong after there was a break in. They were there hoping to steal tech from the school/ lab but instead caused an accident. In an attempt to save Jean he lost his legs and they both gained telepathy and she gained telekinesis.

Warrens condition begins to worsen during his last couple years at the institute and he starts getting desperate. He’s terrified of losing what little of himself he has left without ever having the chance to live a full life. The institute is doing everything they can but research takes time and the only way they are able to do the work that they do is by being heavily monitored by the government and SHIELD. In his desperation Warren turns to Nathaniel Essex, also know as Mr. Sinister. A rogue scientist who used robotics and human experimentation to prolong his own life. Warren asks if he can save him and he makes a deal with the devil. He’s given his wings and his life but at the cost of his freedom. Essex turns him into his perfect weapon, his Ark Angel.

Storm, though not born with her powers encountered something that gave them to her. She ends up at the institute after being sought out by Charles because of her academic potential. Maybe she has vitiligo or something. (I personally think it would be really cool if her vitiligo developed as almost the Lichtenberg Figure / the pattern of lightning.)

Hanks family has a history of Alzheimer’s and by the time he’s gotten his masters in anthropology he fears the early signs are beginning to show (He’s in his 40s-50s). As a result he uses his pull in medical and scientific fields to get help in preventing his condition from progressing. By using the institutes access to SHIELD resources he gets help in developing a drug he believes will completely cure him. Unwilling to wait for years of trial he begins the trials on himself without letting SHIELD know. The trial goes wrong and in the end it gives him his abilities and becoming “Beast”.

In the MCU mutants don’t exist but what if the people still do? What if in some way their existence is so integral to the multiverse that even though they would have never gotten their powers on the sacred timeline there was still always a branch that allowed at least some of them to.

I don’t know I feel like there’s something so interesting about changing how they got their abilities. Like instead of being discriminated for their powers they are discriminated for their disabilities and social status.

Their powers are integral to who they are but I feel like it’s really interesting to see who they are when they aren’t born with them.

How does Magnetos character change because his powers were a product of his oppressors?

Is Charles still just as keen to start the X-Men when they get their powers later in life?

What about Logan, is he still the same after having lived several lifetimes but having the ability to die?

How do their stories change when working around the MCU timeline? What was their reaction to the Accords or when Fisk took office and outlawed vigilante groups? Are the X-Men ever founded?

This AU just scratches something in my brain!!

Do you think anyone ever tried to play Uno with Nathaniel Thorp / The Reaper from episode 29 of TMA? What about Lotteria/mexican bingo ?

Random Logan head canons I have because why not

Logan has an obsession with collecting random trinkets. Like yall will be walking down the street and he’ll just pick up a random charm or broken piece of jewelry he finds. He collects little things like a dam crow. He comes back to the mansion regularly after missions with his pockets stuffed with random junk.

The kids will also give him little things they make. It’s mostly the younger kids but even some of the older ones give him stuff. One of his most prized possessions is a silver statue of himself one of the students made using their mutation thanks to his help. (Nobody thought he actually had the patience or ability to teach a kid how to use a power like that. [it was Scott.])

He’s a snacker. In my own house we have this joke that my dad is “munchie mouse” because he’s always up at the most random hours making some wild combination of food. I feel like Logan does the same thing. Like kids will get up for a glass of water and walk into the kitchen to find him making a full meal, Scooby and Shaggy style. People don’t catch him very often but all the kids know that if you’re down in the kitchen long enough while he’s making food he’ll make something for you. Just whatever you do don’t actually ask because he’ll just tell you to go back to bed or make your own food.

He has a habit of bouncing his foot when he’s not doing anything/ bored. With the metal skeleton though his foot tapping is like so much louder than normal and it shakes like the entire table if he’s got his arms on it. The Professor regularly has to tell him to knock it off during mission briefings (mainly when Scott is talking.)

Logan regularly goes out for drinks with Steve and Bucky. (I will never fall for the mutant hater Captain America propaganda.) They were all part of the Howling Commandos. You can’t tell me that if Logan had been in the MCU timeline he wouldn’t have immediately tried to reconnect with Steve once he remembered they knew each other or that Steve wouldn’t have been absolutely stoked to find out that Logan was still alive.

Anyway once they reconnect they regularly get drinks. Once Bucky is out of Hydra and not on the run he starts going too and they basically spend the entire night telling war stories and confusing the hell out of people because they all talk like they’re 80 but look between 30 & 40.

On the topic of remembering things, when Logan had been trying to get his memories back after Weapon X and was getting flashbacks to WWII he for sure went to some of the museum exhibits.

Mini head canon that Steve took Logan to the Smithsonian exhibit that he went to see in CATWS. Like in this universe he took Logan with him.

Mini mini head canon that any mutant centered event that a US official gets invited to they always have to take Steve too because 90% of the time he is the only thing keeping them from saying something really stupid that ruins their reputation with mutants. Steve did go a round with a senator once at the Hellfire Galla for saying “Why can’t they just follow the rules like all of us? We have to register to have firearms.” Referring to mutants and the registration act. The recording of the fight went viral online and people started making stan edits of Steve with it. (Tony has a framed photo of the exact moment Steve’s fist made contact with the senators face. It’s his most prized possession.)

There have been several Halloweens where a couple of the kids manage to convince Logan to dress up as part of their group costume. He has his own costume he wares for the party’s and stuff but he gets stuck chaperoning kids every year for trick or treating so he tries to at least have a little fun with them. The kids fight over who will be part of his group every year. It’s to the point that Charles has received several attempted bribes from students to get into Logan’s group.

I hear you asking why kids are so keen on being in his group? Well apart from fighting to be in his group students have a bet every year to see who can get him in the most obnoxious/best costume. So far Kitty is winning after getting him into a Barbie movie themed costume although Kurt came pretty close with his Lord of the Rings costume and having him be Sauron. (Up to you to decide if this is Hugh Jackman!Logan or Comic!Logan / if he is 6”3 or 5”2.)

Finally I feel like once Laura moves into the mansion / he starts spending time with her, no matter the universe, he starts getting really into cooking. In Evolutions Laura I think is supposed to be half Native American so in that universe he gets really good at making frybread and other native dishes. (I’m sorry Frybread is the only one I know but you get the idea.)

In LOGAN and DPAW she’s supposed to be half Mexican. When she starts living with Worst!Wolverine he and Wade both get really into cooking for her. Logan makes the best Al Pastor and immaculate hand made tortillas.

He went to this Mexican abuela down the hall at the apartment to get help and he’s been using her recipes since.

When he asked what he could do to thank her for her help at first she just had him doing small jobs around her apartment. Later though she had him take her dancing since her husband passed a few years back. Now they go once every other week to this swing dance place he knows and he pays them off to play a couple of old Spanish songs.

That’s all I got for now but I think I might do a part 2. This was fun. 😂

Can we talk about the parallel of Foggy in season 3 waking up from the nightmare he had and saying he feels guilty he has the life he has while Matt is dead then in Born again Matt is in a very similar situation and also feels guilty for having a life Foggy deserved?

[trenchcoathunnybee08]

“It’s so stupid. He was saved by the power of friendship. What is this? A Disney movie?”

No. It’s better dumbass. He was saved by the power of knowing you’re loved and if you have a problem with that … STFU cus I don’t give a shit.

[trenchcoathunnybee08]

I just read the juiciest, slittiest Sentryagent x reader fic and I don’t know how to function. I have mixed feelings on the ship but specifically John. That fic however has me in a chokehold.

[trenchcoathunnybee08]

How often do you think Scott Lang forgets to empty his pockets before doing laundry and ends up washing his clothes with a bunch of shrinking disks and accidentally shrinks a bunch of his clothes/ sometimes his entire washing machine?

[trenchcoathunnybee08]

Bob realizes he and his roommate might be a little more similar than he had originally anticipated...

[trenchcoathunnybee08]

Bob is up late one night at the tower and ends up putting on Stephen Universe. He binges the entire first season that same night. Bucky is the first up and finds him asleep as the show plays.

Like some dad he covers Bob up to let him sleep and just as he’s about to turn the show off he gets distracted and actually starts watching the episode. He proceeds to leave the episode on and continues watching as he drink his coffee.

John was going to change it to some music while he made breakfast but Bob was still asleep and he figured turning it off would wake him up at this point.

By the end of the day everyone has ended up on the couch fully invested as they make it through the show.

They have each recapped episodes for the group as others start joining in. In the end they basically binge the entire first show in 3 days. John, Ava, and Bucky become the only reasons anything actually gets done but even Bucky keeps getting distracted.

Bob’s favorite character is Lapis Lazuli. He thinks her water wings are so cool and he relates to her on an almost disturbing level.

Yelena and Ava think Garnet kicks ass. Ava wants to be her for Halloween. Yelena is conflicted between Amethyst and or Purl. (She would have been Garnet but she lost in rock paper scissors.)

Alexi is absolutely obsessed with Stephen to the point that he will randomly quote Stephen and regularly sings the cookie cat song. (He does it specifically to annoy John.)

Bucky doesn’t talk much about his opinions on the show but he really enjoys Purls character and the ark she goes through regarding her feelings to Rose. He also really likes Stephen. He kind of reminds him of Steve when they were kids. Always trying to help/fight even though he couldn’t do a whole lot and sometimes just got them into more trouble.

[trenchcoathunnybee08]

Yall don’t understand how desperately I need Comic Old Man Logan to make another appearance in Avengers Doomsday.

The Old Man Logan run for the battle world event was the first comic I ever read. I’ve read up to volume 5 at this point. Is it perfect? No.

(Don’t get me started on the Hulk gang thing.)

Do I know much about what happens to Old Man Logan outside of this run? No.

I would however pay good money to see a live action adaptation of both the villains uprising/what happened to Logan that night and the moment he makes it to one of the other universes and literally sees his own grave.

If I could just get the uprising though I would be happy. It’s tragic and soul crushing but it’s such a powerful moment in the Battle World event that has always stuck with me. Getting to see a mirror of the Logan we saw in DPAW where it wasn’t humans that killed the X-Men but himself would be insane.

I would pay good money. 😭

[trenchcoathunnybee08]

Ok but I’m half tempted to combine two of my biggest marvel obsessions and write a fic about Logan getting Voided and how he would interact with Bob/Void.

Im also half tempted to make it a x reader fic and see how wild I can make it.

Opinions?

[trenchcoathunnybee08]

If anyone knows of any Logan x reader fics where reader is Latina please tell me. I desperately need some variation of them dancing together or trying to at least at a quince or something.

[trenchcoathunnybee08]

At least I’m consistent.

[trenchcoathunnybee08]

I’ve just come to the realization that every time my Attack on Titan obsession comes back I get wildly depressed. Like not actually depressed but there’s definitely an existential feeling of sadness and loss. Fitting that AOT is what I turn to when I feel like my life is useless and the world is falling apart.

Worst part is though it’s not even like I’m finding comfort in the show. I haven’t been able to convince myself to watch the last part and every time I think about it I’m just filled with this sickening dread. This show is so utterly devastating to me and i genuinely can’t understand why of all things I turn to this when I’m in the trences. Like you can’t pick something that would actually make you feel better? You can’t pick something with a happy ending where everyone gets what they deserved and ride off into the sunset with the people they love?

[trenchcoathunnybee08]

Cherry tells Matt in ep2 that he likes the version of Matt he’s seen since Foggy died. A version that Matt says himself has been a lie.

Everyone prefers the lie over the truth because it’s easier to live with a Matt Murdock who hides his pain and lays awake listening to the cry’s of the city over the Matt Murdock who chooses to protect the city by doing more than standing in room he knows who’s floors are roten with corruption and injustice.

Its easier to live with someone who holds their tongue than with someone who speaks their truth.

[trenchcoathunnybee08]

Im so sick of living in this house. My little brother broke down today because our cousin has been fat shaming him. The worst part is he’s subtle about it. It’ll be small passing comments, he’ll say “Well well well” whenever he goes to eat something or “of course you would say that” whenever he’s talking about food.

Never in my life have I come so close to wanting to flat out fight someone.
