you solve the mystery of what to have for dinner one night and you think "hell yeah case closed forever" WRONG there is a dinner mystery the next night too
Them LeBeau Boys: Henri, Remy, and Jean-Luc LeBeau
A redraw from my first story, 'Voodoo Blues’ that I’ve been meaning to get around to.
I also used it as a chance to give Henri some hair. I will never understand how Henri ended up looking like the Professor going through a 1910s villain phase when Jean-Luc is always shown with flowing locks in the comics
Ladies and Gentlemen, may I present the infamous Madame Mattie Baptiste.
Since I posted the LeBeau boys I thought I'd also my Evo version of Tante Mattie from my story Reckoning.
Excerpt from Reckoning, Chapter 5
Rogue opened her mouth to greet the men in question when a loud smack echoed through the foyer, followed by a flurry of French. Spinning around, Rogue spotted Remy rubbing the back of his head while the older woman shot him a look that could have stripped paint. Mercy stood beside Remy with a hand over her mouth that didn't quite cover her snickers.
The older woman's eyes landed on Rogue before snapping back towards Remy. Then, to Rogue's utter delight, the woman reached up and twisted his ear, marching him over to her. The Swamp Rat had to stoop considerably to accommodate the woman's much smaller stature or risk losing an ear.
Stopping directly in front of Rogue, the woman let go of Remy's ear and switched back to English.
"Well go on, Honeychild. Introduce us. Properly. Like I taught you," The woman gave the Cajun a hard look. Remy raised his hands in mock surrender.
"Tante, I'd like ya t’ meet Rogue, a friend of mine. Rogue, this is my Tante Mattie." Remy said in an overly Southern genteel manner.
Tante Mattie shot her wayward nephew an unimpressed look but brushed past him anyway. Clasping Rogue by the arms, Tante Mattie pulled her in for a warm hug.
As far as I'm concerned, Tante Mattie stands five-foot-nothing and scares the bejesus out of everyone in the Guilds.
Gambit 0.000001 seconds after finding out Rogue didn't remember their kiss in Season 3.
Rogue ground her teeth and stomped across the patio. She squinted in the light. It was too bright out here. It was making her head hurt.
Stupid Swamp Rat. It was all his fault, too…among a growing list of other things.
He’d shown up at the Mansion three weeks ago, and now she was a prisoner in her own home. The fool was everywhere—smiling and flirting and getting too dang close for his own good.
It didn’t help that her heart kept trying to skitter out of her chest every time he leaned near her ear, or his hand brushed the small of her back when he passed.
Kitty called them butterflies.
Personally, Rogue was rooting for an undiagnosed heart condition.
It all came to a head earlier when, somehow, the topic of Mesmero and his mind control came up—a topic at the very bottom of a long list of things she didn’t like discussing.
Rogue stared. “I kissed him?”
Kitty, Kurt, and Logan all went very still.
Gambit, halfway through stealing a biscuit off the counter, slowly turned.
“You don’t remember?” Kitty asked carefully.
“I was under mind control,” Rogue said, crossing her arms. “Wait. How do you know?”
“We saw Magneto’s security footage,” Kurt said.
“There’s footage?” Rogue cried. “And nobody thought to tell me?”
Gambit leaned one hip against the counter, biscuit forgotten as a sly grin stretched across his face. “Hold up, Chere. You don’t remember laying that kiss on me?”
Logan ignored him and folded his arms over his chest. “We didn’t want to add anything else to your plate, Stripes.”
Movement in the corner or her eye caught her attention. Gambit pushed off the counter, eyes locked on her.
“Gambit,” she warned, taking a step back.
He followed, slow as honey sliding off a spoon. “C’mon, Chere. Another kiss won’t hurt. Ain’t ya curious?”
Rogue turned and hightailed it for the hallway. “You could die!”
Over her own pounding feet she heard Gambit laugh. “Worse fates spring to mind!”
She had spent the rest of the day avoiding him, slipping through side doors and peering around corners. The man was as silent as a cat when he wanted to be.
“We didn’t want to add anything else to your plate,” Rogue mimicked at the sky.
Gripping the handle of the back door, she yanked it open with more force than necessary.
As she stepped into the blessedly dim interior, Kitty’s eyes landed on her immediately. Her lips twitched, and Rogue bit back a groan. She didn’t need a mirror to know her eyes were a telltale red-and-black.
Kitty grinned. “So, I take it he got his—”
“Yes! He got his stupid kiss!” Rogue snarled, then stomped out of the room.

Gambit and Rogue
My favorite character from X-Men is Storm but... I absolutely love these twooooo ❤️❤️❤️
This was February print for patrons, I'll add this print on my shop soon!
I don't want to yuck anyone's yum, and I support ship and let ship. But.
FFS some Rogueneto shippers make it really fucking hard not to hate them.
"he was the first person to see her as powerful and not broken" incorrect! I think you'll find that's Remy LeBeau!
I swear to god every claim I see about them being good in canon is a lie, stolen from Romy, or straight up nonexistent.
If you wanna see young vulnerable girl fuck getting old man good for you. But just say that. Stop trying to say it's actually soooo romantic in canon when there is not one single instance of them in canon of her having free choice, full autonomy, and the ability to consent.
X Men 97 I curse you for the hell you have rained down on my girl.
If you think AoA or 97 is a good portrayal, or romantic, it's actually grooming and CSA! And it's okay to read and appreciate portrayals of them in fiction! It's good actually bc it can help victims! BUT YOU HAVE TO BE HONEST ABOUT WHAT THEY ARE AND ACKNOWLEDGE ITS ABUSE!! COERSION IS NOT CONSENT!
AND DONT YOU FUCKING DARE TELL CSA SURVIVORS WE ARENT ALLOWED TO BE UPSET AT MARVEL FOR DEPICTING IT AS ROMANTIC AND HEALTHY WHEN IT RUINED MOST OF OUR LIVES
