One of my favorite quotes other then sappy ones between Rogue and Gambit has to be from the episode of AS I watched last night.

Wolverine to Apocolypse
"What did you do to her you pile of dog puke?"

I mean come on, Wolverine is talking to Apocalypse the creepiest dang villain in the series, and he calls him a pile a of dog puke /D

*Coughs* My favorite quote is a "sappy one between Rogue and Gambit." XD In the X-men Fairy Tales comic (which takes some of the characters and puts them in a different universe. I think they're all based off of fairy tales, but some are *very* loosely inspired by the original fairy tale they claimed they were using.) In the story, Rogue and Gambit didn't have their powers. At the end of it, Rogue and Gambit were walking (along with Mystique, whom Rogue lived with because she was better to her than in canon). Rogue was saying everything happened like a fairy tale ending. Gambit said, "Life isn't all a fairy tale, you know." And Rogue said, "who's to say it can't be?"
Edit: I really liked the ending, but the story is really voodoo inspired, just a word of warning. It's a little creepy, actually. (They fought zombies which were called up in part by Emma Frost.)

Wow, I don't get on for a few days 'casue of work and this place explodes! xD
Don't get me wrong, I'm ecstatic that it's actually getting some consistent attention <3
Ok, let's see if I can catch up...

Who's your least favorite X-Man? This doesn't necessarily mean you dislike them, it could just be you like others better.

From the X-Men team, I'd have to go with Cyclops and Jean in general; though they are better in Evo. From the X-Men show(s), I'd have to say Juggernaut; he's just ridiculous.

I waited two seasons to see Gambit in Evo and after I watched the episode where he appeared for the first time I couldn't shake the feeling that something was off, until I realized that in Evo he doesn't refer to himself on the third person, it shows how little things really show character doesn't it /D

Something else that's off...His hair is way too short! That's the big thing for me xp
I like him just as much though. It's impossible to not like him <3

Overall out of the three main shows I would have to say I prefer the characters in this way
Wolverine - Awesome regardless imo
Storm - Once again, awesome regardless
Scott - Definitely Evo, he's annoying in AS and kind of pathetic in WaX
Jean - Evo for sure
Rogue - AS, her accent is more genuine and this version just has more depth in general
Gambit - AS, genuine accent and a bit more character depth
androgueandgambitinASispreciousokay
Kurt - WaX/Evo, he's rather plain in AS
Professor X - Evo, he's a little less uptight.
Beast - AS, I love his literary quotes

I agree with you 100% in every way except...
I like Rogue and Gambit in Evo too(it was the first time I saw the X-Men, so they kinda set the "standard" for me and I end up comparing all the shows to their Evo versions) I really like how they portray Logan and Rogue in WaX too(so sweet) <3

What is your favorite X-Men quote? It can be anything, said by anyone, at any time!

Oh, wow! I have way too many to list! xD
Even listing one from each version would be a lot
So I'll just go with...Most of what's said in anything between any X character xp
The quote Lykopis is talking about is defiantly one of them <3

Wolverine: [comes around corner to startled team] Hey! It's me.
Cyclops: [ready to blast him] Prove it!
Wolverine: [sighs] You're a ****.
Cyclops: [has no doubt] Okay.

Oh and since Emris mentioned TAS, I can't not share this...

The man doesn't break a sweat against Apocalypse or Magneto. So what nails him...? A pine tree!

And Cherry, that's really sweet; I love those kind of moments <33

[Spiritstar3]

Hello dears!
Im back

[ChristainAnimalLover]

Yay!!<3

Oh, and now that there's more of you here, I kinda want to share my fanfiction(which is weird, 'cause I was nervous about letting one other person read it; I haven't let anyone else see it)
I know Cherry was interested...Anyone else?
I shared a little a while back, if anyone wanted a "writing-style-sample-thingy"

EDIT:
I've decided to share a little bit of my story with you guys <3
I'm pretty proud of it, and kinda want to share but also don't want to...Anyway, this "scene" happens pretty late in the story, just after a pretty rough "episode" - Rogue is a bit more open and not quite as angry with the world, she also has control of her powers but still wares her gloves; Logan and Gambit get along now and are actually pretty good friends. It takes place in a training session. Based mostly on Evo, with a few traits from just about all the other versions mixed in xD

Yes, I plopped you in the middle of mini-book xD
I color-coded the conversations for your convenience and because it's fun

Chapter 3

-----Gambit managed to get the Danger Room to display a peaceful meadow without any opponents. Gambit had programmed the dimensions of his Bo staff into the computer and now handed Rogue his, he took the prop. Rogue removed her glove and put the tip of her finger on the tip of Gambit’s for a second. He began teacher her how to wield the staff; she learned quickly and soon could do several combinations fluidly. Gambit was very pleased, “You are doing excellent.” He said as he stood up from the last move he’d just shown her. Rogue stepped closer, smiling, “That’s because I have an excellent teacher.” She reached up and kissed him gently. He smiled tenderly at her as she began to repeat the move he’d done. With Gambit’s knowledge and his direct teaching, Rogue easily completed each move he showed her with little to no errors.
-----Logan entered to find Gambit and Rogue performing a complicated series of movements in perfect unison. He watched in awe, smiling. When the two had finished, he approached. Logan tossed a glance at Gambit who gave the slightest nod before heading for the control room to switch off the Danger Room. Logan approached Rogue and somehow she knew – he’d changed since she saw him a few hours ago. He came up and hugged her. Rogue was a little surprised, “Whoa!” She said as she closed her eyes and hugged him back. He held her tight, as if he’d been the one traumatized while she lay unconscious in bed for a month. Finally, he loosened his grip and she leaned back to look up at him, “What’s gotten into you?” She asked, smiling broadly. “I’ve just…I’ve missed you.” He said, his eyes gentle and full of affection. “Aw, Ah’ve missed you too Logan.” She said, almost tearing up. Just then Gambit came back in and, seeing the looks on both their faces, as he came to stand beside Rogue, knew that they had finally past the “rough patch” and they were as close as ever. Having just caught the end of the conversation, Gambit chimed-in, “Hasn’t anyone missed me?” He asked playfully, pretending to be hurt. They all laughed and Rogue leaned against him. “How could Ah miss you? You were there for me the whole time.” She said lovingly. He smiled and gently kissed her head, misty-eyed. Seeing how close Gambit was to tears, Logan changed the subject, “Blind Alley?” Gambit caught Logan’s eye and nodded gratefully, Rogue smiled broadly.
-----Blind Alley was a particularly tricky program where you fought blindfolded. Not surprisingly, Logan held the impossible record for this program, but Rogue was getting pretty good at it.
-----Gambit leaned back and laughed, “Aw, man! You guys are ganging up on me.” He’d never been very good at this one. “You can sit this one out if you’re not up to it Cajun.” Logan smiled at the playful taunt. Rogue smiled at the two. “And let you have all the fun? No way!” Gambit replied, grinning challengingly. “Let’s see what you got.” Logan leaned forward slightly. Gambit narrowed his eyes, “You’re on!” Rogue sighed in mock exasperation, “Boys?” She called softly, as if they were lost thought. They both looked over at her. “Can we start?” She asked eagerly. They both nodded and fastened their blindfolds, she did the same. “Begin.” Logan said clearly, starting the program.

Chapter 4

-----Rogue took advantage of her new skills with a Bo staff and, using the computer-generated prop, successfully downed many opponents. She did considerably well; almost always being with Logan, she had taught herself how to really listen and was now knocking opponents down as they approached rather than after they attacked.
-----Gambit fumbled around in his blind-fold, almost knocking Wolverine down multiple times. “Hey! Watch it, Cajun!” Logan growled, ducking as heard Gambit’s staff slicing through the air. “I don’t know how you guys do it.” Gambit said, amazed, as they reviewed the score once the session had ended. Blind Alley was one of the few programs that kept score, and Rogue was now in third place – just below Beast, though neither of them was even close to beating Logan. “You can’t just swing around aimlessly,” Logan smiled. “You have to focus. Think. Listen.” He replaced his blindfold, ready for another round. “Easy for you to say!” Gambit swung his staff at Logan, who ducked effortlessly. “You hear everything!” Rogue laughed, tying her blindfold, “You don’t have to have heightened senses to beat the computer, Remy.” She motioned for him to swing at her too. He hesitated, not wanting to hurt her but he knew she could take it. He sighed quietly, and swung at her too. She threw up her hand and grabbed his staff; catching him off-guard, she easily yanked it from his grasp and swung around, performing a newly-learned move that ended with the staff just a few inches from his throat. Gambit stared at her, wide-eyed with surprise. “Stop gaping and put your blindfold back on!” Logan whispered from behind him, making him jump as Rogue tossed his staff back to him. Gambit smiled, now determined to use all of his senses in an attempt to jump to fourth place. “Begin.” He said as steadily as he could.
-----Seeing Gambit’s new score, Rogue almost knocked him over with an ecstatic hug; Logan gave him an approving nod and wide smile – he was tied with Beast for third place. “Oooph! You did excellent too!” He said, noticing that Rogue had beat Beast by several points. Rogue let go and grinned.

[ChristainAnimalLover]

I don't think I can link you to my laptop Word Document xD
Glad you like it though, I take it you want to read more? ;p

[Spiritstar3]

Lols

YES!

[Emris]

Cherry, is there anywhere to read X-Men Fairy Tales online that doesn't require money or a credit card that you know of? I really want to read it after looking at the sample on marvel.com.

Cal, You're writing style is very descriptive which is lovely, but I feel like even at their sweetest points Rogue and Gambit can't help but be just a little more...snarky to each other. Other then that it's wonderful ^^

Can someone help me figure something out, I watched the episode of AS called Love in Vain and other then being annoyed that it was full of "cockroaches" as Wolverine called the aliens, and Rogue being rather annoying, I still cannot figure out how Cody didn't get zapped when he touched Rogue. The only thing I can think of is that the spores had something to do with it, but her powers still worked so Idk

[ChristainAnimalLover]

Thanks <3
The snarkyness is one of the only things I didn't like about them when I started this; also, I started this with the mind-set of following Evolution; I was sad that the show was cancelled and at the time, it was the only X-Men thing I knew about. So I started roughly 3-5 years later and just let my imagination go with it(ending up changing a few things, mostly personality-wise). Although, what you read is pretty far along...I will go back and edit some things when all is said and done(you got the rough draft).
I've been mentally writing this for over a year and thinking back, a lot of little things have changed. What I watch before has a tenancy to affect how the character interact as well, as I tend to subconsciously incorporate a TV character I like into one of my three main character xD
I should have started writing it down after the third day(I often wrote fanfiction as I tried to fall asleep but it never got past two nights), but no-o I had to wait 'till I had been doing it for months before I even began taking notes! Now, all I have of the beginning are very vague notes; the note get more detailed until I finally just started typing out what I came up before bed the next day. Of course, work has all but stopped this; I am determined to get it all typed up so I can share and/or keep going. Once I get it all typed, I;ll make sure it's consistent personality-wise and all that jazz.
