name: Anna Marie Darkholme
nickname: Rogue, Stripes (good way to get a punch in the face), River Rat, Polecat, Kid (better be the right person, or again, punch in the face), Marie
romantic orientation: bi-romantic, could be polyromantic under the right circumstances
preferred pet names: verse dependent- typically babe, sweetheart, darlin’, chère, kid (if you’re not Logan or John...start running)
relationship status: verse dependent- anywhere from single as single gets, to committed partner with a kid
favorite canon/fandom ship: um, you want me to pick? For one, I multiship for a reason, they’re all...individual. They’re not the same ship depending on the partner. And I don’t stick to just canon. Some of my fav ships are crossovers (Matt Murdock) and OCs. Sooooo, no. Not picking. Can’t make me. I will say I’m always a sucker for Romy and Rogan shipping, but neither is my end all, be all of shipping by a long shot. I like being able to explore a different storyline, even with the ‘same’ character. Sue me. It’s the beauty of roleplay.
opinion on true love: sigh. This, this is complicated. Because she’s very much a romantic. She loves books, obviously romance is a common plot or subplot. She’s had the ideal of love constantly in her face in fiction. But her reality has been her mother leaving her father, and Mystique being...Mystique, and wondering how authentic her and Irene’s relationship is. Basically she desperately wants true love to be real. She believes she’s just seen shitty versions of love, people that weren’t meant to be together. She also questions whether or not she is actually worthy of love. If her power isn’t some way of the universe laughing at her, like she didn’t get the message when her mother left her. She wants to be very, very wrong, she’s just not sure that she is.
opinion on love at first sight: doesn’t think it exists because she views authentic love as being a deep level of care and want for wellbeing of the other person above one’s self. Lust at first sight? Like at first sight? Some kind of undefinable kinship connection? Definitely believes in them, she’s experienced them. Love at first sight? Nope. Not a thing in her mind.
how ‘romantic’ are they?: Rogue’s romantic tendencies fluctuate based on her partner’s needs. Is their thing dinner in and a movie? Cool, she’ll make it happen. Spend the afternoon doing an engine build together? That’s what’s up. They want to go to a fancy restaurant? She’ll happily dress up to go. Seeing them happy, is what makes her happy. She feeds off their happiness, and stresses over their stresses, so her goal is to see them taken care of and happy. Laughter from the person she loves, highlight of her day. She’s very prone to leaving little notes in places like work desk, favorite food, on the bathroom mirror in the steam, texting good morning/night when not around, random little cutesy...or not so innocent, texts throughout the day. She notes their favorite food and drink, it stays in stock. She’ll often be up first and have the coffee ready for them both. If there’s something to be done that can take a load of them, she offers.
ideal physical traits: she’s borderline demi/sapiosexual. She really doesn’t have “ideal” traits because personality means a lot more to her than physicality. While it’s not intentional, it’s purely happenstance, she generally ends up falling for someone with slightly above average to enhanced physicality. More a product of usually keeping company with mutants and other powered humans or supernatural beings than seeking it out. If you were to force her to name ideal traits they would likely include bright eyes of no particular color, longer hair (she’s highly tactile, okay?), and a really nice smile. She’s not so picky about them being short, tall, feminine or masculine, etc. You really couldn’t even peg a preferred hair color on her, she’s fallen for all of them.
ideal personality traits: now this is where she’s picky. Both confident, self-assured, and shy, quiet have an appeal to her. Someone who can be an extrovert and in charge is a big turn on, but she’s also a nurturer and can find kinship in other introverts. It basically flips her switch, quite metaphorically given she is a switch, and she’ll take the lead as needed. A sense of humor is a must, they absolutely have to be able to give and take sarcasm and sassback. It’s her default language. She cannot begin to be attracted to someone that is blasé to injustice or cruelty. She’s the definition of chaotic good, if you’re not willing to break the law with her to do the right thing, she won’t have any part of you. And lord knows if you’re cruel, she’s liable to injure you before dating you.
unattractive physical traits: Um, her mother and brother are both blue. Her brother has a tail. Remy has demon eyes. She really gives no fucks what you look like unless it was someone like Blob, or I don’t know, Cthulhu, yeah that she probably would have a hard time working past. That, and a really sour, mean face. Looking constantly pissed would be a big turn off.
unattractive personality traits: Cruel, arrogant (which isn’t the same as cocky but people that don’t know what a dictionary is pretend they’re synonyms and they’re really not, cockiness is justified confidence but arrogance is condescending and usually unwarranted), of the idea they’re never wrong, unempathetic, humorless, unaffectionate (she’s both touch and generalized affection starved, that’s a no go), and unable to get passionately worked up over something they care about.
ideal date: She’s a pleaser, so her ideal date is what makes them happy. Hell, napping together counts as a date if that’s what her partner wants. Baking together. Reading aloud together. Working together. Going out and rounding up criminals. Hell, training together can count as a date (sparring is foreplay people, and you damn well know it). If you want a dream date, getting out away from the city, bonfire and camp food, stargazing, maybe screwing in the back of a pickup or in a tent. Wouldn’t even need to spend the night camping if not desired by the partner. Just some time away from the city is enough if they’re too much of a city slicker to want to rough it outdoors for the night.
do they have a type?: Y U P. Cocky, devil may care smirk, self deprecating, usually has a rocky past, wears leather, very affectionate and sexually driven, usually denies the fact they’re good even though she sees right through that. Gods she has a type. Majority of her ships, canon or not, fall into most of those categories.
average relationship length: once started, not exactly ended. At least on average. If they break it off, they generally drift back together unless something major truly cuts it off. As much as she has some commitment issues because of her Rejection Dysphoria , she’s also really determined to make a relationship work through effort if she cares about the person.
preferred non-sexual intimacy: Everything. Fucking. Everything. Touch is top priority. It can be just being laid up against each other, she wants to be touching whenever possible. Running fingers through hair? Prime. Using each other as pillows? Not optional. Just tracing patterns in skin? Don’t. Stop. Showering together? Yup. But really spending any time together, even with it being work, is intimate for her. As much as she likes someone opening up to her, just quiet time together also counts as intimacy for her.
commitment level: ride or die. Except she knows she’s not aging. So unless whoever she’s with is equally powered or supernatural, she knows she’s signing up to outlive them. And she knows it’s going to hurt like a bitch. Doesn’t stop her from committing once she’s truly attached and cares for them.
opinion of public affection: she likes it. She’s a slight bit of an exhibitionist and also likes to lay claim to whomever she’s with if someone’s getting a little too comfortable flirting with her partner. She won’t be overly affectionate to the point of it being considered obscene but she certainly isn’t opposed to holding hands, playing with hair, brief kisses, etc.
past relationships?: verse dependent, aside from Cody who barely counted as a relationship before her power landed him in a permanent coma. Yeah, great introduction to dating.
