just to project myself onto him, he sees something/skills he likes or is interested in, maybe buys some of it, does his impulsive , obsessive research on it and learns it really well
its not an obvious conversation topic, but once your on it , our silent guy becomes a chatterbox.
and where's the best place to indulge in knowledge acquisition and have lone time/ avoid talking --- the library!!!
I feel like we all need to understand that Wolverine being a gruff badass loner is a surface level facade of Logan, because once the battle ends and you get closer to Logan you realise that Logan is....kinda a fucking nerd?
He's a damn weeb (love it or hate it) and he reads loads of books (literature teacher/librarian Logan?! Please someone write a fic about Logan being like a grouchy old lady librarian at a small library or bookstore. Like I bet he would talk about books with random students.).
He learns whole new skills to impress his partner (wife-guy Logan? Let him pull that Gomez Addams shit, they're both short kings who aren't conventionaly atractive so why not go all the way?).
Also he canonicaly can't swim for shit, whitch considering all his skills, that is pretty funny (mostly due to his skeleton rather than a lack of ability to swim).
jubilee can persuade logan to do nearly anything she wants
she even got him to wear something other than his usual checked shirts and jeans for something tasteful, atleast according to jubes.
AND got him to shave his side burns for a day
(though that happens only after a week of "please please puh-leeeeaassssseee miiiissssTTTUUUUHHH WOooLVIIIIEEE and a few half planned poorly executed black mail attempts)
*scott : you got him to SHAVE, to dEcENcY !!!!!!!!!!!
“Jean is team mom” “Ororo is team mom” SILENCE. Enough of you reducing women to maternal archetypes because you can’t be bothered to explore deeper meanings to their character.
LOGAN is team mom.
“Logan, can you buy us—“ “no” (buys the thing anyway)
Is constantly scolding his kids students for putting themselves in danger
Plans fun activities (life threatening danger room drills)
Handles the rebellious phases. You think Scott has the mental strength to deal with the fury of a teenage girl who can throw fireworks when she’s mad? I think not.
Hank can barely convince Jubilee to do her homework. Charles mentally checked out a long time ago.
Takes Jubilee, Kitty and Laura shopping. If he doesn’t like something, he’ll give them the blankets ‘that’s cute. I wouldn’t buy it.’ In the world
“What do you think, I’m made of money? We’re getting milk and that’s it.” — leaves with half the store
Is the kid’s emergency contact AND attends everyone’s PTA meetings.
No, ELIZABETH, He won’t be staying up all night cooking vegan cupcakes for your precious angel. He’s gonna buy them like a normal person.
Mom Stare (tm) that can turn you to stone
Will assign kids chores, complain they don’t do it correctly, proceeds to do it himself, then says no one helps around.
“You’re EXACTLY like your father” “…Are you talking about Scott—“ “of course I’m talking about Scott!”
Kitty wants to learn how to drive. He’s holding that safety handle till his hands get purple. “Check the mirror CHECK THE MIRROR—“ “it’s CHECKED :(( “ “CHECK SOME MORE”
Laura is his baby. Holds her everywhere. Will talk about her 24/7.
“Logan, do you know Bobby’s birthday? I need it for—“ “June 28th, Tuesday, 10:34:03 AM, blood type A, his nurse’s name was Susan, —“
Is in charge of birthday cakes. No one else.
If the kids feel down, or need someone to talk to, he’s got a 6th sense for it. Knocks on their door, Leland’s against the frame with his arm crossed, ‘wanna talk about it’ on his face.
The most insane lore you’ve ever heard
tumblr you inspire me
somewhere, sometime ago in the depths of tumblr, i distinctly remember reading a post where the headcanon was that all the guys in the sniktfam can sing pretty good while the gals might as well shred your ears with their voice to some extent.
now here's my logan-centric thought:
as a young chap trying to get by he comes across a band of people with musical instruments. he gets along, they don't mind him, he slowly learns the trick to learn all instruments in a jiffy. he plays some really well and sings along, people like his voice.
some rich folk liked it too. they asked him to learn a nice song with the violin. no problem for our scrappy guy, he somehow manages it.
after then he gets house calls or to sing and play violin to house parties. so this turned out to be a well paying side-gig when he's not doing his murder business
marvel might make an x men movie....
they better give scott main character status and give him a fantastic story arc. he deserves it. he has been stereotyped and done dirty for too long
why is scott's code name cyclops?
my intro to this man was from the x men movies, so by default i thought he was kinda of a jerk, cause others in the movie also treated him like an okay dude, very bland, an extreme stickler of the rules. A very uncool dude.
seeing him for this powers, a guy with who shoots red laser from his eyes.
as my curiosity and love for the x men grew, so did my google searches. naturally i typed in cyclops. i found something else entirely on the first page. letting my curiosity take over i learnt of what it actually means, with plenty of help from 'percy jackson' and 'wikipedia'
as it is near nothing actually relates to scott at all
then i learnt more about the x men, turns out scott is cool and a good guy. and even further away from his code name
why the hell was he named cyclops! i don't know what i'll do if i find out that charles named him cause the visor made it seem like he had one long horizontal eye.
logan is a disney princess talking to animals in harmony with nature there's enough proof already
logan and his long tongue licking peanut butter of the bottom of a jar
it’s always sunny at the x-mansion
some kid tries to touch his hair cause why not, logan immediately shifts his head away without looking. the kid tries again and again, but logan dodges until he is too uncomfortable with the attempt and hisses and shows the full length of the canines he keeps hidden, with his pupils constricted almost entirely (sort of like a scared animal/ cat). the kid jumps back and logan then slowly and softly says "stop....please...don't do that out of nowhere ....". logan then feels really uncomfortable and walks to some place else.
eventually after a couple of years, when he is more comfortable being around kids in the mansion, he does let them pet his head and play with his hair... only if the politely ask his permission first.
after that, everytime a kid asks to touch his hair he obliges without a thought. he winds up being a practice mannequin for anybody who wants to do braid his hair. he actually likes beads and accessories on his hair if it doesn't pull at his hair.
K back 2 logan:
Him learning to accept hugs. You *cannot* tell me that he isn't touch starved. The man lived in the woods. He was homeless. He was sad.
I feel like he jumps like a cat whenever someone tries to hug him the first few times
