INDEPENDENT SCOTT SUMMERS SELECTIVE & MUTUAL EXCLUSIVE PRIMARILY BASED ON CINEMATIC UNIVERSE WITH COMIC INFLUENCES WRITTEN BY ADDY || EST. MAY 2016

[pclyphemus-blog]

WHOOPS. sorry for the unexplained hiatus, y’all! i went to florida to visit my brother & thought i had a post queue’d, when in fact, i did not. i’m here now, though, so hopefully replies soon!

His words ring in her ears and, for a moment, the expression on her features fades. There’s no smug aura around her, matching the smirk on his face. No smirk of her own. There isn’t even a smile. She can only stare for a long moment, feels like she is running out of oxygen, that she will never be able to breathe again because he is pushing it—

Jean is leaning in before she can stop herself. A hand is on the back of his head, the other gripping tightly – too tight, she will realise when she pulls away – on his upper arm. It’s not nice, soft and polite like it should have been… It was desperate, insistent, damn well pouring the weeks they have spent hesitating poured into one gesture.

[pclyphemus-blog]

For a minute, it looks like Jean is bluffing. Her expression goes blank, and she doesn’t move any closer. Nerves get the best of Scott, making him wonder if he’s gone too far, if he’s pushed too hard -- but then her hand’s on his head, the other on his arm, digging into the flesh there hard enough that it might hurt if he could feel anything other than the anticipation building sharp in his gut.

He kisses her then. Or maybe she kisses him - Scott doesn’t know, and doesn’t particularly care. The bottom line is that they’re kissing, and Scott can’t keep from following Jean’s lead. The kiss goes from soft to demanding in less than a moment, and Scott’s hands slide up Jean’s shoulders, one to cup the back of her neck and drag her closer, the other to rest on her back. 

Eventually, he has to break to breathe. His gasping inhale is interrupted by the huge smile spreading across his face, but Scott doesn’t mind. “Remind me to challenge you more often,” he says, chuckling breathlessly. “I like the results.”

         There’s a GRIN on her face at his words, can’tstop it if she tried. Teeth press into her bottom lip a moment later, wondersif she’s crossed some sort of line byasking the question… but Scott is leaning in towards her, turning it back onher, and she inhales. “Guess you’ll only find out if it is,” she murmurs after a moment, eyes on his.

[pclyphemus-blog]

Scott’s lips twist into a smirk, and his chest fills with something akin to confidence. He and Jean have been dancing around the connection between them for weeks; flirting and teasing, looking when they don’t think they’ll be caught, spending time together but not quite daring to GO FOR IT -- and Scott thinks that this moment might be IT. 

“Guess it’s a challenge, then,” he says, raising an eyebrow, DARING her. Waiting. Hoping.

The New Guy [closed]

Remy chuckled, turning what was left of his deck of cards in his hand. Scott Summers wasn’t unknown to him, although they hadn’t met properly. Remy had gotten an impression of what he must be like from the way others talked about him, that was for sure. Specifically, the impression that he was a sulky stick-in-the-mud. Not exactly what Remy had been hoping for, if all that was true.

Not that he put too much stock in anybody’s opinions of someone, positive or negative. It was his way of holding out hope people might return the favor.

Either way, he didn’t see any harm in indulging the awkward attempt at small talk. “S’pose that would be why you didn’t see me out here yesterday, neh?” He charged another card and tossed it out over the water to end its existence with a satisfying little poof. “So far as I can tell, I think maybe you don’t want to be in this particular spot today, but here you are.”

[pclyphemus-blog]

Scott eyed the cards as Remy fiddled with them, wondering what the connection was for the man. It wasn’t exactly typical for anyone to carry a deck around with him, even if they were a hardcore gambler. If Scott weren’t as uncertain in this conversation as he was, he might have asked. Instead, he settled for a rueful grimace when Remy called him out. 

“I’m not great at trusting people,” Scott said slowly, thinking his words and any implications through before allowing them to pass his lips. “Call it a flaw if you want, but I tend to think it’s reasonable, when you’ve got as many enemies as we do.” The ‘we’ was ambiguous, and even Scott wasn’t sure to whom he was referring. The school, maybe? The X-Men? Every mutant in the world? Because they all had enemies. Many. And Scott knew better than to let his guard down until he was absolutely sure it was safe. 

“But Storm vouches for you, and Jean -- and most importantly, the Professor does, and he would never let anyone stay if he believed them to be a danger.” And surely, out of all of the telepaths on this campus, SOMEONE would have realized if Remy LeBeau meant them harm. “So I’m trying to be friendly. I understand if that bothers you, but it didn’t really look like you were enjoying sitting over here by yourself, either -- so maybe you should give me a chance, too.”

                 “PLEASE tell me I didn’t just destroy anything important,” Scott said, eyes squeezed tightly closed. “I just - I forgot. For a second. I wasn’t trying to do anything stupid. I’m sorry!” The deluge of excuses and apologies caught Scott off-guard. He hadn’t felt the need to explain himself like this in a long, long time -- but he was tired and grieving, and his calm, independent exterior was deteriorating rapidly.

                     pointed ears twitched,   registering the distressed YELL of his roommate had him jolting upright  &&  just narrowly escaping a panic induced teleportation as his image briefly  f l i c k e r e d   ━━ ━  dark wisps of smoke melding around him before dispersing into nothing.   Kurt turned his head glance over at Scott as his wide-eyed shock melted into a soft frown full of concern.   enhanced night vision allowed crimson irises to hone in on Scott’s fumbling for his glasses that had unfortunately found a home on the floor during the night.   

                     ❛   zat’s okay,  Scott…   ❜    he muttered   ━━ ━   a yawn quickly following after his words as he trudged on over to retrieve the glasses  &&  place them in Scott’s grasp.    Kurt was all too understanding to the night terrors that PLAGUED him  &&  his team.   tonight had been one of the rare occasions that he himself hadn’t suffered such but he wouldn’t hold it against Scott to wake him from a peaceful slumber for something he couldn’t control.   ❛  ━━ ━   bad dream,  ja ?   ve all get zhem.   ❜

[pclyphemus-blog]

A sigh fell gustily from Scott’s lips -- he HAD woken Kurt with his nightmare, then. Scott was used to taking care of his own problems, and dragging another person into them, even with something as simple as startling them awake, made him feel guilty. That guilt was compounded when Kurt yawned, audible in the darkness of the room, and shoved something into Scott’s hand. 

Scott took a moment to run his fingers over the object and find that it was his glasses, the ones he’d been unable to find in the darkness. “Thanks,” he murmured, putting them on so he could at least LOOK at Kurt. “Uh, yeah. Bad dream.” Scott’s lips thinned and he glanced around the room rather than meet Kurt’s sympathetic eyes, feeling exposed. But Alex’s face, horrifically burned in a way the explosion WOULDN’T have left him, still floated in his mind’s eye, and Scott knew he wouldn’t get away with rolling over and going back to sleep this time. 

“I don’t, usually.” It was the truth -- but it still felt like a cop-out. “And when I do, it’s never about Apocalypse, or what you’d expect.” Scott shrugged, trying to put an abrupt end to the conversation. “You can go back to sleep, man. I promise I won’t wake you up again.”

Opinion on:

Character in general: JEAN GREY. My love for Jean knows no bounds. She gets a bad rep as a Mary Sue a lot of times, but she’s a badass woman, which of course, makes people dislike her. *eye roll* Scott/Jean is one of my main OTPs, & I love her!

How they play them: I think this is a pretty solid Jean interpretation! We’ve only had a few replies & interactions, but I’m never sitting there thinking, “Uh, Jean wouldn’t -- why are they --” like I have with some people before. (Not necessarily Jeans, & not really on this blog! I’ve been pretty lucky with the people I write with here. Different fandoms, not so much.) 

The Mun: SO CUTE. seriously, the mun here is just adorable and sweet, and needs to be so much more confident, but they’re great.

Do I:

RP with them: YES.Want to RP with them: YUS.

What is my;

Overall Opinion:  super cool party person over here!

**Note: Mun’s answer are all to be completely honest. Don’t send url if you don’t want brutal honesty

            Scott blinked at the sultry rejoinder – he and Jean have flirted, sure, but this seemed different. More immediate, more REAL. And he could hardly be the first one to back away. “Might be,” he tossed back, leaning into Jean’s space and cocking his head to one side invitingly. “What are you going to do if it is?”

i’m just like, in love with the way you play Peter. I know I’ve told you that before, but it’s definitely worth repeating! I love seeing you on my dash, in character or out, because you’re always entertaining & your posts make me smile. It helps that even though everyone’s like, “damn, you awesome,” you’re not cocky & are still approachable & kind.

Man, okay, so you were one of the first Charles accounts I followed, & also one of the only ones who I get to write with consistently. I adore the way you write Charles, & I think you understand his character in a really deep, important way. Also, you seem like a genuinely good person yourself, which is really important to me in people I follow, so that’s a plus! <3
