Marvel Earth-9115 Rogue
A little sketch I did for a Rogue Anniversary contest on Tumblr
Didnt really do it to win cause lets face it, as Ive said before this very jacked version of Rogue is only liked by a small niche of people XD
(shout out to yall!)
I mostly wanted to contribute to the list, plus I get an excuse to draw one of my favorite Marvel characters.
As far as the variant earth lore of this one, she has a lot of similar events happening to her that happened to the 616 and the X-men Legends Rogue.
Not sure how many of the events she went trough, I always kinda immagined my 9115 version of the X-men to be in a sort of a Time capsule of the 80s-early 2000s with some sprinkles of the more modern events. On the why this Anne is so jacked? Well, I already wrote it somewhere else, if peeps really wanna know Ill look for the text XD .
On a side note I should totally draw a proper 616 Rogue meets 9115 Rogue. Feel like it could be funny considering their physical difference XD

Happy Birthday, Sugah A #rogueaversary Submission for Rogueslove
@rogueslove , posting this for the #rogueaversary competition. Thank you for considering me!

Description:
After the abruptly aborted marriage between Mariko and Logan, Rogue invites Logan to Harry's Hideaway with a proposal. It will lead to tea, and a kiss, but perhaps not in the way all would expect.
Long-form answer to a survey @rogueslove asked. I didn’t realize I had so many thoughts on the MagnetoxRogue ship vs GambitXRogue ship. When I was a kid I shipped Rogue and Gambit in the cartoon show. However as an adult I’ve gone back and am reading all of the X-men comics (literally all of them) and now I ship Rogue and Magneto hardcore.
I just feel they are healthier. They have their own identities and didn’t define themselves by their relationship with each other. I feel that even though Magneto has a tendency to take the lead when it comes to missions, he encourages her to make her own decisions when it comes to her personal life (even when it’s not in his best interest) and treats her as an equal, encouraging her to be confident in herself. Even when they aren’t together anymore, he comes when she calls and is always able to tell when something’s bothering her. Because of the nature of her powers, she’s always internalized her negative feelings but he always encourages her to speak her mind and say what’s on her heart and gives her good advice (again- even if it’s not to his benefit). I like that they challenge each other, he pushes her to be decisive and shows her the world isn’t always black and white while she leashes his ego and convinces him to be more of a team player and empathetic on missions. I really hate that Marvel didn’t give them a chance to really be in a real relationship. To be fair, the timing of them starting to date was pretty bad with everything that was going on, but I really feel the writers handicapped Magneto and Rogue by 1) not allowing them to define what their relationship was and 2) by literally splitting them up and having them refuse to reach out to each other for comfort or support for undefined reasons. And even when Magneto reached out to her to ask for commitment after he almost died and she broke up with him, he still respected her decision and her need to find herself as an independent person. He still clearly has feelings for her, but does not pursue her or try to sabotage her marriage to Gambit. In fact, he encouraged Rogue to pick Gambit over him because he makes her happy and she makes the thief be a better man.
Rogue and Gambit I feel are a fun couple, but they are too codependent on each other and are very sexually motivated. A couple having a high sex drive isn’t a bad thing, except Rogue’s powers sometimes inhibit their ability to be physical, and it tends to cause her to spiral emotionally and dip in self-confidence. Her powers fluctuating literally drove Rogue to tears in fear that her power inconsistency was going to drive Gambit away literally after they just got married, after having only jumped back into their relationship a few months prior. His proposal was very out of the blue, and while romantic, this shows she’s still not secure in their relationship. And who did she confide in? Who immediately realized something was off about her? Who encouraged her to voice her fears to her husband instead of crying alone in the sky? Magneto. To Gambit’s credit, he has put in the time with Rogue, he’s been romantically chasing her forever and was there for her for a long time, even when they couldn’t touch; but he hid a lot from her and still does, he takes her previous romantic encounters with other men personally, even though they weren’t together during those times, and once again--I feel he (unintentionally) pushes her to place her value in her ability to be physical with him as opposed to her own personal strengths. He constantly tries to find ways to shut off/neutralize her powers, which while they are an inconvenience, they are a part of her identity. I also really hate that he stated (while being influenced by an emotion-power mutant) that he “sent” Rogue to Magneto so she would get her feelings for him out of her system and was banking that she would come back to him, that she just needed to “see [Magneto] up close” and that it “works every time”. That’s not okay. He’s always shown his displeasure in Rogue’s feelings for Magneto, even though-to be fair, she knew Magneto in a personal way long before Gambit joined the team, which isn’t fair to Rogue. In the early days he was very sexually aggressive with her and even pushed her to physically strike him on multiple occasions to get him to stop, clearly showing he has issues respecting boundaries and consent. Even after she explained to Gambit that she left Magneto but needed to be on her own for a while to find herself, he began flirting with her in front of students and asking her out on dates as “just friends”. And honestly, Kitty and Gambit conspired against Rogue to send the two on a “romantic therapy” related mission to jump-start their relationship again. Not to mention he proposes to her in front of all of their friends because it was a shame to waste a wedding. It’s so manipulative and Ick.
