Not a terribly big fan of Wolverine, but I do like Gambit. I've never got why they're always hooking up in fic, though--is it just because they're both so popular?

yeah that's hot ngl

I, too, don't get why these two are the most popular characters. I guess I can see the appeal of Wolverine theoretically (though in all actuality he bores me) but Gambit? Every bit of coolness he has ever omitted came from his relationship with Rogue, IMO. He was just Rogue leftovers.

emitted

emitted

every bit of coolness he has ever EMITTED

why not look up the two words?

That art is all kinds of hot but I don't get the pairing itself. It's popular, then?

I do like Wolverine and Gambit though.

Oh, maybe it's time to get back into this fandom. That's a great fanart - link to original, pretty please?

Like, you hate them individually, or as a pairing? Because as a pairing, I kind of understand. They wound up with some of the lowest quality fic I have ever had the misfortune of reading. But individually, Logan's quite a nice male mary sue, and Remy's got the whole pretty with angsty backstory thing going on. It's a bit like fangirl/fanboy kryponite, to be honest...which might be why you hate them, now that I think about it.

[personal profile] unicornherds 2012-08-04 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I...do not want to have seen that image. Cannot unsee.

I agree on the Wolverine dislike. I have never understood his appeal. But I've gotta admit I'm a pretty huge Gambit fan, if only for the version in my head. I..have a weakness for charming thieves. But I can easily see why others wouldn't share the love.

Yay, I'm not the only one who doesn't like Gambit!

Wolverine is cool, but I don't like how Marvel has been handling him lately. I think he works best as part of an ensemble and I find him terribly boring when he's by himself.

I can't read any Wolverine fic because I always imagine a short, hairy, smelly man and then I think of Danny DeVito and my brain shuts down. So, yes, I don't get this pairing either...

But--but why?! How?!

(Anonymous) 2012-08-04 09:15 pm (UTC)(link)
They're popular? I go looking for X-Men fic and it's like hen's teeth to find anything that isn't XMFC. It doesn't seem particularly active. I guess it's a popular pairing compared to other X-Men comics pairings, but that's more because that entire fandom seems dead to me.

Unless there's like a wealth of fic and fanart for them and an active community that I'm unaware of, in which case, please by all that is holy, link me to it! I'm not overly attached to the pairing (can't really stand Logan, tbh) but I'd take what I can get.

I never noticed any particular chemistry between those two, but then again I was rather focused on Joseph/Remy/Rogue, sooo...

All my X-Men knowledge comes from the '90's cartoon. And, I'm not even in the fandom.

But, hell yeah, Gambit/Wolverine. I'd be all over that.

Oh, Gambit. My first crush on an anti-hero character? Probably.

(Anonymous) 2012-08-04 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
I was filled with such vindictive glee when they killed Ultimate Gambit off. I really was.

I think I mostly dislike Wolverine due to overexposure. I was so sick of him that I didn't even touch the Wolverine and the X-men cartoon until recently (it was...actually pretty good, imo. It reignited my passion for Nightcrawler/Scarlet Witch)

I have never been able to fathom slashing most versions (comic and animated) of Gambit and Wolverine, especially when Gambit is turned into Super Uke. I know why it happens - they're the most popular male X-Men - but I dunno know how to make sense of it.

The movie that featured the two of them together to bank on their popularity, though, that one I understand. There's some intriguing Old Veteran/Young Upstart vibes in that one. Plus, Taylor Kitsch and Hugh Jackman, full stop.

This damn secret! I went searching for Wolverine/Gambit fic to see what all this is about and I can't stop reading and laughing at 10 year old fic with gems like these:

Remy cornered him. "I'm not a kid, Logan. I know what I wan' an' I wan' you, non?"
