Alright ya’ll I’m slinkling in to post even though I obviously never found the solicits...so I’m glad we are all taking a healthy outlook on reading 7 without them.
But in the meantime....I’m stuck in the car and then at the in-laws....so I’ve got some time. Does anyone have any stupid rogue and gambit headcannons they want to share? Mine is that during their break-up Gambit dated a vegan yoga instructor for awhile, so whenever he tries to make a recipe he discoverd during that time...Rogue passive aggeessively finds ways to add meat to it or brings home fried chicken. Alright folks! Help distract me!
The hints were definitely there for people paying close attention, but I just kept thinking it had to be a red herring because I didn't expect Marvel to actually pull the trigger. Best surprise ever!
It would be truly difficult to top how awesome a year it has been for Romy. But hey, if 2019 wants to make a go at it I'm here for it!!
As mentioned in our last Bon Temps round table, my biggest headcannon is that Gambit has a ton of extra secret pockets in his duster/trench and they are just FULL OF CRAP.
And I'm still waiting for one of my amazing artist Romy friends to draw him in custody while they pile all the stuff from his pockets out on a table.
I think we discussed this in the old thread of what would be in his pockets. Apparently beef jerky is a popular guess.
Ask and thou shall receive.
After Gambit’s encouragement to add her own touch to their condo, she bought out the entire Hearth & Hand with Magnolia Farmhouse collection from Target much to his horror.
Bobby was over visiting once, asked for something to drink, they offered him tea they’d home brewed themselves. He immediately gagged on the pound of sugar they’d infused.
Gambit does about 45 minutes of yoga in the living room every morning, Rogue judges him as she drinks her coffee. She has some great blackmail photos of his “happy baby” pose. He tried one day to take her to a float spa, but she got bored not even 5 minutes in.
Gambit woke her up at midnight when the new episode of Black Mirror dropped (boy loves his SciFi), Rogue - not terrible invested in the genre - kept telling him to select the most screwed up options.
Gambit permanently smells of Drakkar Noir is something I can never shake courtesy of TAS Scumbit.

On the other hand, Rogue's also a grown-ass woman that some Cajun dirtbag has been trying to f**k for three and a half seasons, and seeing her as an infantilized little girl is super creepy, especially when said dirtbag wanders in and slobbers all over her hand, reeking of Drakkar Noir and desperate longing for a handjob.
(Amusingly, I actually really like Drakkar Noir!)
You know that’s true. We are currently washing our 3 year olds coat for a similar reason.
These are all amazing headcannons. Especially the float spa since it reminds me of my boss who keeps trying to force people to do cryotherapy with her. Also, poor Bobby. I did buy the Home and Hearth “flush the toilet” sign for my work work white elephant.
Beef jerky does make sense! Easy and portable protein.
As for the year of Romy - yes! That’s done a lot to balance out the not as awesome aspects of the year for me for sure. I’m still in shock. I do remember back before the issue came out, I was explaining to my husband how I had to get to the shop the day it came out because at worst there are some cute romy scenes but there is a chance that it could be the most important issue ever! And then he got to hear me go over piece by piece everything leading up to my “theories.” Sometimes being married to me is obviously super fun.
LMAO about Hearth and Home. Definitely agree on that one!
And on the sugar too. Those two probably don't need to watch their calories at all, so I imagine they go all out with fat and sugar.
I could definitely see Gambit doing yoga, though I think he'd try to get Rogue to join in and it would all go downhill and turn sexy after he tried to help her out with her poses.
But I DO think he probably practices his savant and/or bojitsu to some degree on the daily because it's a skill that requires practice and maintenance. And does Rogue like to watch? I feel like she does.
Couplest: my headcanon is that Remy's loft is so sparse cuz he doesn't want thief coming and stealing his stuff. So he had hidden compartments all over. Though Rogue (based on their times in XXM) will now want some décor so we have potted snake plants with hidden bottoms for safe keeping. But the trick is that they are empty cuz to trick thieves.
Also my 1 hint of a wedding was Romy asking the big question in end of miniseries, with Rogue's anxious look. (then it was about the cats).
I always love reading people's headcanons.
My headcanon (but it may be actual canon) is that Gambit and Rogue hooked up multiple times during their break when she had control of her powers. They'd pretend to meet for "dinner" as "friends," but they both totally knew it would lead to filthy sex, and were more than okay with it. I feel as if the R&G mini-series basically confirms this.
Also, Gambit has an extensive collection of shampoos and soaps and robes that he has pilfered from hotels across the world. Because he's the greatest thief in the world, and he's not going to pass up any opportunity to commit theft, even the most common and everyday kind. Rogue secretly is pleased, because she is into trying all of the most expensive ones.
Loving all of these! They are sustaining me through family
Christmas number 1 million. And with all the toys people have been shoving at my kids, I kind of wish someone would rob my house.
And you can’t blame Remy for stealing comfy robes!
I also caved and joined tumblr and am couplestee. I have no idea what I’m doing! Fun times!
