Hereās a question: What are your LEAST FAVORITE X-Men comics/iterations of Gambit from them, if you have any?
// Ooof yeah there's a few. Working so I can't pull up the exact issues but I might add them later.
Mostly in his older solo comics. I understand it's because they're a product of their time (60s...70s...type deal). He was depicted as a womanizer and smoked heavily, mainly because that was what was considered cool at the time. He was supposed to be the mysterious, suave newcomer to the X-men, so that was the character trait they used.
tw: s.exual a.ssault & pe.do shit under the cut
Also the way that they emphasized him being handsome/a beautiful man led to some really creepy interactions, some were him being s.exually a.ssaulted and it was played off as a joke (because back then people only associate that with women). He's 22/23 and a senior woman is blatantly drooling over him and commenting on how she'd rather see him in less/no clothing. He's groped w/o his consent and a cop smacks him on the butt.
Another instance is when he's 15/16 and Candra, an adult, is flirting with him while she's cradling his face. At 17 he's encouraged to use sex as a way to complete his thieves guild trial/heist. It's different when he's an adult but like he's A MINOR at the time. IT'S A LOT.
I have qualms about his most recent comics too but that's mostly because of the writers he gets. Some are better at depicting him than others; like he's always been head over heels for Rogue, and we joke about him being a male-wife with her being the stronger one of the two of them, but some writers take that too far with domesticating him. As much as I love the Outliers, Remy is the Guildmaster of an international crime ring of thieves but he's mostly at home looking after kids, even in his old age. Wasted potential imo.
That's part of the reason why I have his main verse take place around the time he first becomes an X-man and just before Krakoa because of the weird writer's shift lately.

His arms are folded along with a signature scowl as he confronts her. ā And just what were you doing rummaging around in my dreams for? ā
UNPROMPTED
"Wow Kurosaki you dream of me? That's so cute~" She giggles and gives him a playful wink but when he doesn't react Yumeko drops the act. "In my defense.... Didn't mean to end up here... Sick dreamscape by the way." She remarks as she stands against the windows of the tall city scape.
@krosakis sent an ask: ā Hey, Yusuke. Iāve been wonderingā¦ how did you and Alyssa meet anyway? ā

āOh, I remembered that day like it was yesterday. I saw her, and groped her breast, and she proceeded tā punch the crap outta me.ā He crosses his arms and retells the tale with factual accuracy. āIāve never been more excited tā know someone was actually that strong. From there it was pretty much forced proximity in school until we eventually gotten tā know one another.ā
"Yeah, that's why I'm just wary instead of hostile. She could just be neurodiverse like myself and my siblings. Yusuke's been helping her find Jin and our uncles." Ai Jian looked thoughtful. "So maybe it's just her not knowing how to react to like long lost family?"
Grimmjow had managed to cross over from the spirit realm to the human realm. The oni had heard that the humans had shrines for spirits that they would bring offerings to. If he could claim a shrine as his own then he could have humans worship him. Easy enough in his mind. He'd travel through the night and searched for a shrine he wanted to claim as his own, the biggest most elaborate shrine should be his.
Though the one he found already belonged to a deity and a fight ensued. The oni was vicious, in the spirit world he was known for his ferocity. Over the course of many nights the oni would fight the guardian of the great shrine, frightening the local humans in the process. On the seventh evening Grimmjow defeated the guardian and claimed the shrine for his own. Finally he could enjoy the spoils of his new home and rule over the humans.

"I see you know my buddy Spike. He's one of the coolest people I know, just think jus' like that he can go all black kimono and that bitchin' sword in jus' a second. Didn't know you were in cahoots with the reapers."
Approach my muse about another muse they've interacted with. || OPEN
theyre gossiping about @krosakis!
"Cahoots? Oh no no no, those guys are absolute duds. A bunch of party poopers with rules I don't much care for." She quickly dismisses the idea of being in league with them. Mostly because she's not too sure how fond they are of fae or spiritual beings in general that weren't just souls. "The Dandelion's a good kid though, I know he's doin' all that heroic crap for the right reasons. Just wish he'd take care of himself more, he kinda reminds me of you in that regard.....
He doesn't know about us by the way and since he felt the need not to bring up his cute little girlfriend (fiance) I'm inclined to do the same."
